Article Abstract
Objective: Surgical intervention and fixation is the recognized measurement to treat pubic symphysis diastasis caused by high-energy trauma. The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the clinical application of modified pedicle screw-rod fixation (modified PSRF) and open reduction plate fixation (ORPF) for treating pubic symphysis diastasis.
Methods: The data of this retrospective analysis were collected from 32 patients with pubic symphysis diastasis managed with modified PSRF or ORPF from January 2012 to December 2017, with or without posterior fixation. Indicators of clinical assessments including operating time, intraoperative blood loss, relevant surgical complications as well as follow-up were recorded. Majeed scores were performed for functional evaluation, as well as Matta criteria were applied to evaluate the quality of reduction.
Results: The average time from injury to operation was 2.9 days in modified PSRF group and 3.2 days in ORPF group. Significant differences regarding average operation time (41.8 min versus 64.3 min) and average intraoperative blood loss (46.6 ml versus 304.6 ml) were presented between modified PSRF groups and ORPF group. Neither Majeed scores nor Matta evaluation showed a significant difference between two groups. In ORPF group, the incision infection occurred in one patient and two patients developed loosening of screws. In modified PSRF group, loosening of screws was found in one patient during the operative procedure and one patient experienced femoral nerve palsy. Irritation to the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) was detected in two patients in modified PSRF group.
Conclusions: Satisfactory clinical outcomes were provided with applications of both fixation methods for treating pubic symphysis diastasis. Modified PSRF, as a minimal invasive technique, could serve as an effective and reasonable option for treating pubic symphysis diastasis.Level of evidence: III: retrospective cohort study.Trial registration: researchregistry3906.

Nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurotransmission and resilience to peripheral systemic risk factors for gait slowing upon transition to uneven surfaces in older adult.

Identifying mechanisms that compensate for slow gait speed in older adults is crucial. Dopaminergic neurotransmission curbs deleterious associations of cerebrovascular disease with gait, but whether it compensates for peripheral systemic risk factors (PSRF) for gait slowing has not been studied. In this cross-sectional study of community-dwelling older adults, we examined the relationship between nigrostriatal dopaminergic terminal integrity and gait speed in individuals with and without ≥ 1 PSRF for gait slowing: obesity, joint pain, or reduced muscle strength.

Purpose: Pubic symphysis diastasis with an incidence of approximately 20% in pelvic fractures is a severe lesion which needs to be treated properly. The objective of this retrospective study was to describe and evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes including its advantages and limitations of this modified minimal invasive technique.
Methods: Totally 29 patients with pubic symphysis diastasis, with or without posterior ring instability, were treated by modified pedicle screw-rod fixation (modified PSRF) between January 2010 and December 2016.

Background: Anterior pelvic ring fracture, as high-energy trauma, needs to be effectively treated. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the clinical applications of modified pedicle screw-rod fixation and anterior pelvic external fixation for the treatment of anterior pelvic ring fracture.
Methods: Either modified pedicle screw-rod fixation (modified PSRF group, N = 21) or anterior pelvic external fixation (APEF group, N = 22) was performed to 43 patients, with or without fixation of posterior ring.
Spermatozoa in the sperm-peak-fraction of the boar ejaculate show a lower flow of Ca(2+) under capacitation conditions post-thaw which might account for their higher membrane stability after cryopreservation.

Boar spermatozoa collected in the ejaculate sperm peak-portion (P1, first 10 mL of the sperm-rich fraction, SRF), had shown a higher resilience to freezing and thawing compared to spermatozoa from the rest of the ejaculate (2nd portion of the SRF plus the post-sperm-rich fraction, PSRF), even when using a simplified freezing technique, as long as spermatozoa were incubated in their own seminal plasma (SP). This experiment studied the stability of P1- and SRF-P1 boar spermatozoa frozen in MiniFlatPacks (MFP), post-thaw, using flow cytometry. Since spermatozoa from either portion showed similar cryosurvival and low proportions of unstable membranes (<3%, annexin-V/propidium iodide staining), and only a tendency for SRF-P1 live spermatozoa to depict acrosome exocytosis (FITC-PNA/PI/H33342); they were explored for Ca(2+) contents using a Fluo-4 probe under in vitro capacitating conditions (mBO+ medium), as well they were tested for their ability to sustain a short Ca(2+)-ionophore (A23187) in vitro challenge.
