Abstract Objective This study aims to investigate the incidence, occurrence timing and locations of preoperative DVT and identify the associated factors in this group. Methods A retrospective analysis of collected data in young and middle-aged (18–59 years) patients who presented with hip fracture between October 2015 and December 2018 was conducted. Before operation, patients were routinely examined for DVT by Duplex ultrasonography (DUS). Electronic medical records were retrieved to collect the data, involving demographics, comorbidities, injury and laboratory biomarkers after admission. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors that were independently associated with DVT. Results Eight hundred and fifty-seven patients were included, and 51 (6.0%) were diagnosed with preoperative DVT, with 2.5% for proximal DVT. The average age of patients with DVT is 48.7 ± 9.4 year, while that of patients without DVT is 45.0 ± 10.9 year. The mean time from injury to diagnosis of DVT was 6.8 ± 5.5 days, 43.1% cases occurring at day 2–4 after injury. Among 51 patients with DVT, 97 thrombi were found. Most patients had thrombi at injured extremity (72.5%), 19.6% at uninjured and 7.8% at bilateral extremities. There are significantly difference between patients with DVT and patients without DVT in term of prevalence of total protein (41.2% vs 24.4%, P = 0.008), albumin (54.9% vs 25.6%, P = 0.001), low lactate dehydrogenase (51.0% vs 30.3%, P = 0.002), lower serum sodium concentration (60.8% vs 29.9%, P = 0.001), lower RBC count (68.6% vs 37.0%, P = 0.001), lower HGB (51.0% vs 35.1%, P = 0.022), higher HCT (86.3% vs 35.1%, P = 0.022) and higher platelet count (37.3% vs 11.3%, P = 0.001). The multivariate analyses showed increasing age in year (OR 1.04, 95% CI; P = 0.020), delay to DUS (OR, 1.26; P = 0.001), abnormal LDH (OR, 1.45; P = 0.026), lower serum sodium concentration (OR, 2.56; P = 0.007), and higher HCT level (OR, 4.11; P = 0.003) were independently associated with DVT. Conclusion These findings could be beneficial in informed preventive of DVT and optimized management of hip fracture in specific group of young and mid-aged patients.

Guided by the hypothalamic antidiuretic hormone vasopressin, the kidney’s ability to conserve electrolyte–free water when it is needed and to excrete large volumes of water when there is too much of it normally prevents the serum sodium concentration from straying outside its normal range. The serum sodium concentration determines plasma tonicity and affects cell volume: a low concentration makes cells swell, and a high concentration makes them shrink. An extremely large water intake, impaired water excretion, or both can cause hyponatremia. A combination of too little water intake with too much salt, impaired water conservation, or excess extrarenal water losses will result in hypernatremia. Because sodium does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier, an abnormal serum sodium concentration alters brain water content and composition and can cause serious neurologic complications. Because bone is a reservoir for much of the body’s sodium, prolonged hyponatremia can also result in severe osteoporosis and fractures. An understanding of the physiologic mechanisms that control water balance will help the clinician determine the cause of impaired water conservation or excretion; it will also guide appropriate therapy that can avoid the life-threatening consequences of hyponatremia and hypernatremia.

Eighteen patients with hyperosmolar non-ketotic diabetic coma were studied retrospectively to identify factors affecting prognosis and to review treatment. This condition affected older women two-thirds of whom were unrecognised diabetics. Eight (44%) died. Mortality correlated with age above 60, uraemia and hyperosmolarity, but not with the degree or rate of fall of hyperglycaemia. Hyperglycaemia responded to rehydration and insulin, but in all patients serum osmolarity remained high for several days. In 14 patients (78%) the serum sodium concentration initially increased and in four (22 %) serum osmolarity increased. This persistence or worsening of the hyperosmolar state can be avoided without the risk of cerebal oedema by replacing the fluid and electrolyte deficits over 48 hours and using 5% dextrose for the water deficit.

Abstract A 68-year-old man underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy with lymph nodes dissection for carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater. The patient had anxiety neurosis and had been treated with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). Postoperatively, SSRI was resumed on postoperative day 2. His serum sodium concentration gradually decreased, and the patient was given a sodium supplement. However, 11 days after the operation, laboratory findings included serum sodium concentration of 117 mEq/L, serum vasopressin of 2.0 pg/mL, plasma osmolality of 238 mOsm/kg, urine osmolality of 645 mOsm/kg, urine sodium concentration of 66 mEq/L, serum creatinine concentration of 0.54 mg/dL, and serum cortisol concentration of 29.1 μg/dL. With a diagnosis of syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH), the antianxiety neurosis medication was changed from the SSRI to another type of drug. After switching the medication, the patient made a satisfactory recovery with normalization of serum sodium by postoperative day 20.
