Objective: To analyse the causes and resultes of intraoperative occurrence of an acetabular fracture in primary total hip arthroplasty and discuss propriate prevention and treatment of this problem.
Methods: Between July 2004 and December 2006, 326 primary total hip arthroplasties were retrospectively reviewed and found that eleven patients (eleven hips) had sustained an intraoperative acetabular fracture involving 7 male and 4 female,aged from 37 to 71 years (mean 54 years). Analyzed the causes of fractures, the anatomic location, treatment and outcome of the fractures. Acetabular component designs were categorized and each design was analyzed for fracture risk.
Results: Among 11 cases, the fractures occurrenced as setting the prosthesis in 6 cases, grinding and drilling in 3 cases, drawning hook in 2 cases. There were 5 cases of central type fracture, 3 of posterior-wall, 2 of anterior, 1 of posterior-upper. Nine of these patients (nine hips) had been followed-up for 12 to 29 months(mean 18 months). There were no heterotopic ossification, no dislocation, no deep venous embolism. All fractures were healing.
Conclusion: Acetabular fracture during primary total hip arthroplasty is a complication of acetabular fixation without cement, which should be think highly of. In the present series, retention of a stable cup is associated with uneventful osseous in growth and excellent early-term outcomes.

Background: Healthcare-based social need screening and referral (S&R) among adult populations has produced equivocal results regarding social need resource connection.
Objective: Assess the efficacy of S&R on resource connection (primary outcome) and unmet need reduction (secondary outcome).
Design: Intention-to-treat randomized controlled trial.

The aim of this study was to determine serum I-309 levels in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) patients, as well as the association with disease phenotype, systemic activity, and T helper cell-related cytokines. A total of 58 pSS patients and 30 healthy controls (HC) were enrolled in this study. The concentrations of serum I-309, interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-6, IL-9, IL-13, IL-17, IL-22, IL-23, tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), IFN-α, and IFN-β were measured with multiplex immunoassay.

Background And Purpose: Lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with a high risk of recurrence, particularly in elderly patients, where cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is often the primary cause. Diagnostic markers of CAA-related ICH, including subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and finger-like projection (FLP), have recently been developed. Here, we aimed to explore the associations between SAH, FLP and the risk of ICH recurrence in lobar ICH patients.

The efficacy and safety of total marrow irradiation (TMI) plus a reduced dose of melphalan as autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) preconditioning for multiple myeloma (MM) patients were evaluated. The 11 patients with MM had a median age of 57 (range: 46-75) years; six of them were at standard risk and five of them were at high risk based on the Mayo Stratification of Myeloma and Risk-adapted Therapy (mSMART) standard risk factors. Before ASCT, three patients achieved stringent complete response (sCR), two patients achieved complete remission (CR), and the rest of the patients had either partial response (PR) or progressive disease.

Primary head and neck mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (HN-MALT) is a rare lymphoma with unknown incidence and prognosis. We allocated HN-MALT data from the Self-Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2000-2021) into training and validation cohorts at a 7:3 ratio. A joinpoint regression analysis was used to examine sex-specific and age-group morbidities, and independent prognostic factors were identified through multivariate Cox analysis to construct a nomogram prediction model and verify the accuracy of prediction.
