[Finite element analysis of artificial ankle elastic improved inserts].

Objective: To discuss the influence of artificial ankle elastic improved inserts (hereinafter referred to as "improved inserts") in reducing prosthesis micromotion and improving joint surface contact mechanics by finite element analysis.

Methods: Based on the original insert of INBONE Ⅱ implant system (model A), four kinds of improved inserts were constructed by adding arc or platform type flexible layer with thickness of 1.3 or 2.

Biomechanical assessment of disease outcome in surgical interventions for medial meniscal posterior root tears: a finite element analysis.

Background: The adverse consequences of medial meniscus posterior root tears have become increasingly familiar to surgeons, and treatment strategies have become increasingly abundant. In this paper, the finite element gait analysis method was used to explore the differences in the biomechanical characteristics of the knee joint under different conditions.

Methods: Based on CT computed tomography and MR images, (I) an intact knee (IK) model with bone, cartilage, meniscus and main ligaments was established.

Characteristics and Management of Spinal Tuberculosis in Tuberculosis Endemic Area of Guizhou Province: A Retrospective Study of 597 Patients in a Teaching Hospital.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is an endemic disease in Guizhou. Spinal TB accounts for approximately 50% cases of skeletal TB. The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics and management of patients treated for spinal TB in a certain hospital and to provide guidance for the prevention and treatment of spinal TB.

Cervical langerhans cell histiocytosis mimicking cervical tuberculosis: A Case report.

Rationale: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) involving adult cervical vertebrae is relatively rare clinically.

Patient Concerns: An 18-year-old male patient exhibited a 1-month history of neck pain, restricted neck mobility, and numbness and weakness of both upper limbs. The patient reported no pain at other sites, exhibited no fever or night sweats, and was unable to recall any recent injury.

Analysis of Treatment and Prognosis of 863 Patients with Spinal Tuberculosis in Guizhou Province.

The objective of this study was to investigate the treatment and prognosis of patients with spinal tuberculosis in Guizhou province. A total of 863 patients with spinal tuberculosis admitted to our hospital from 2006 to 2017 were included in this study. All patients underwent standardized quadruple antituberculosis treatment.
