Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to create a machine learning model to predict the risk of re-fracture in elderly hip fracture patients post-surgery, helping identify those at high risk early on.
- Clinical data were analyzed using a variety of machine learning algorithms, with models like WeightedEnsemble_L2 showing the best prediction performance in determining independent risk factors such as age and comorbidities.
- The final model can serve as a valuable tool for healthcare providers, enhancing their ability to assess and manage the risk of re-fractures in elderly patients effectively.
Background: Limb salvage surgery is an important method for treating malignant tumors of the bone involving the adjacent parts of the major joints in children. This technique allows for preservation of limb function, especially in the lower limb. However, the reconstruction of the proximal end of the tibia after removing the tumor mass with a rational scale to preserve the total knee joint and reduce limb length discrepancy presents a challenge.

We systematically searched nine databases, a total of eleven studies on prediction models to predict DVT after knee/hip arthroplasty were included, eight prediction models for DVT after knee/hip arthroplasty were chosen and compared. The results of network meta-analysis showed the XGBoost model (SUCRA 100.

Effective nursing interventions may reduce patients' self-perceived burden and improve their quality of life.
Objectives: To explore the effects of an explain-simulate-practice-communicate-support intervention on the self-perceived burden, cardiac function, and activities of daily living (ADL) ability in patients with New York Heart Association grade III chronic heart failure.
Background: Exercise intervention (EI) is a promising and economical way for elderly patients with hip fracture, but the evidence regarding effective EIs remains fragmented and controversial, and it is unclear which type of exercise is optimal. The purpose of this Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) is to compare and rank the efficacy of various EIs in elderly patients with hip fracture.
Materials And Methods: A comprehensive literature search was performed using a systematic approach across various databases including Medline (via PubMed), CINAHL, CNKI, Web of Science, Wan Fang, Embase, VIP, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and CBM databases.
Article Synopsis
- The study looks at different types of exercise programs to help patients who have had hip fractures and wants to find out which one works best.
- After reviewing many clinical trials, it found that resistance exercises (RE) are the most effective for improving hip function, while balance exercises (BE) help with daily activities.
- The researchers believe that both RE and BE are great options, but they think more careful studies are needed to confirm what they found.
Objectives: Tetanus is a serious infectious disease. In recent decades, the epidemiology and disease characteristics of tetanus have been reported by many medical workers, but these studies usually have limited sample sizes.
Methods: We retrieved all the epidemiological data related to tetanus from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019, and a secondary analysis was performed to report the global epidemiology and disease burden of tetanus.
Background: Radioresistance leads to treatment failure in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Thus, enhancing the radiosensitivity of NPC cells would likely increase the effectiveness of radiotherapy. Annexin VII (Annexin A7, ANXA7) might be a tumor promoter in NPC but its functions in radiosensitivity remain unclear.

Methods: A total of 136 lung cancer patients who were receiving chemotherapy were randomised using stratified blocks (1:1 ratio, from March 2016 to April 2017). The intervention group was given cognitive education in the format of mind maps.
BACKGROUND Symptom distress is very common in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) during radiotherapy, seriously affecting their quality of life and impeding the process of rehabilitation. Resourcefulness training can enhance the level of resourcefulness and benefit-finding, palliate symptom distress, and promote disease rehabilitation. However, the effects of resourcefulness training on local complications and benefit-finding in NPC patients during radiotherapy remains poorly understood.
