Objective: To compare clinical effects between plaster fixation and cannulated screw for the treatment of Jones fracture.
Methods: From 2006 to 2010, 41 patients with Jones fractures were divided into 2 groups. In Group A, there were 14 males and 8 females, ranging in age from 21 to 62 years, with an average of (32.3 +/- 8.7) years; the course of disease ranged from 2 h to 3 d; the patients in Group A were treated with plaster fixation. In Group B, there were 9 males and 10 females, ranging in age from 24 to 59 years, with an average of (28.8 +/- 7.9) years; the course of disease ranged from 0.5 h to 2 d; the patients in Group B were treated with cannulated screw fixation. The patients in two groups were followed up from a long time and the long-term effects were studied.
Results: All the 41 patients were followed up, from 3 months to 2.5 years, with a mean of 11.3 months. All the patients in both groups were healed. The patients in Group B got postoperative wound healing with A degree at the first stage without complications. In accordance with the Maryland Foot Score, the therapeutic effect in Group B was better than that of Group A. The healing time in Group B was shorter than that of Group A.
Conclusion: Percutaneous minimally invasive treatment with micro-cannulated screw is an ideal method for the treatment of the Jones fracture.

Introduction: Unmet health care needs are seen as a key indicator of equity in access to health care. With younger people, they can lead to poorer health outcomes in adulthood, and in older people they can be associated with an increased risk of mortality. The presence of a disability is considered a risk factor for unmet needs.

Rationale And Objectives: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common pathogenesis of dementia, and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is considered as the intermediate stage from normal elderly to AD. Early detection of MCI is an essential step for the timely intervention of AD to slow the progression of this disease. Different form previous studies in the whole-brain spontaneous activities, this research aimed to explore the low-frequency amplitude spectrum activities of patients with MCI within the default mode network (DMN), which has been involved in the process of maintaining normal cognitive function.

The management of anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy in stage V chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing renal transplantation remains controversial. Some centers advocate for the use of reversal agents or procoagulants preoperatively, while others suggest that transplantation can proceed safely without halting these treatments. This study aims to evaluate the incidence of hemorrhagic and thrombotic complications in the first 72 hours post-transplant in patients receiving anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy compared to a control group without such treatments.

Background: In pancreatic surgery Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) represents the most dreaded complication, for which pancreatic texture is acknowledged as one of the strongest predictors. No consensual objective reference has been defined to evaluate the pancreas composition. The presented study aimed to mine histology data of the pancreatic tissue composition with AI assist and correlate it with clinic-pathological parameters derived from the RECOPANC study.
