Check the news lately,and it seems yet another company has just announced its intention to help tackle the climate crisis.From technology to consumer products,to furniture,to airlines,to energy,the corporate climate pledges keep coming.Typically,the companies set a date by which to achieve carbon-neutrality across their operations,declaring their support for the Paris Climate Agreement (Table 1 [1,2]).For Amazon,that target date is 2040[3].Unilever has committed to net zero emissions by 2039 [4].IKEA goes even further with its pledge to become climate positive by 2030,meaning its operations will result in a net decrease in greenhouse gas emissions [5].

背景:全膝关节置换的成功需要在术中选取适宜的软组织松弛度,但不同患者术后的软组织变化情况不同.目的:探究全膝关节置换后中长期随访中膝关节软组织松弛度对患者满意度的影响,初步检验以长度测量膝关节软组织松弛度的效能.方法:选择在郑州大学第一附属医院行全膝关节置换且获得术后5-10年随访的患者107例,拍摄应力位X射线片,以不同方法测量双侧膝关节冠状位松弛度.①方法A:以内外翻应力试验中膝关节内外侧开口距离变化值之和表示膝关节松弛度,A1组(≥0 mm且≤5 mm,n=23),A2组(>5 mm且≤7 mm,n
背景:经皮骶髂螺钉内固定已经成为治疗骶髂关节分离的首选方法,但目前很多采用平行水平面的方式置入螺钉,此置钉方法风险相对较高,易受人体骨盆变异的影响,且很难实现双螺钉固定,需寻找一种新的内固定方式.目的:通过骨盆3D模型,模拟7.3 mm拉力螺钉固定骶髂关节,然后进行测量和统计分析,确定最佳髂骨进针点和空间角度.方法:用Mimics 21.0软件对60例骨盆CT数据进行3D重建,建立60例骨盆3D模型.从臀部外上方尽量靠近髂嵴上缘的位置,经S1椎弓根到S1椎体上1/3中点模拟置入7.3 mm拉力螺钉(尾向置
背景:椎弓根螺钉松动是脊柱内固定后的严重并发症,既往对螺钉松动的报道还是依赖CT轴位像进行判断.目的:对比研究CT冠状位重建图像及X射线片和轴位CT图像的传统方法在判定脊柱内固定螺钉松动的敏感度和特异性.方法:收集了23例在河南省人民医院行脊柱术后内固定翻修的病例,其中短节段固定14例,长节段固定患者9例,退变性疾病患者17例,骨折患者6例.术前采用CT冠状位重建图像以及传统X射线片和轴位CT图像两种方法进行椎弓根螺钉松动判定.2名医生独立阅片互不干扰,术前评估所有内固定装置是否存在松动.术中共探查螺钉1
The longitudinal immunologic status of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-infected patients and its association with the clinical outcome are barely known.Thus,we sought to ana-lyze the temporal profiles of specific antibodies,as
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic increased the burden on many healthcare systems and in the process,exposed the need for medical resources and physical space.While few studies dis-cussed the efficient utilization of medical resources and p
Inherent drawbacks associated with drug-eluting stents have prompted the development of biore-sorbable cardiovascular stents.Additive manufacturing (3-dimentional (3D) printing) has been widely applied in medical devices.In this study,we develop a novel s
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a global crisis,and medical systems in many coun-tries are overwhelmed with supply shortages and increasing demands to treat patients due to the surge in cases and severe illnesses.This study aimed to as
