Deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity is one of the common complications in orthopedic perioperative period. It is caused by many factors, such as peripheral vein dilation, slow blood flow, long-term immobilization, bed rest and so on. On the one hand, it affects the early postoperative functional exercise and functional recovery, on the other hand, it increases the length of hospital stay and economic burden, increases the pain of patients and even endangers their lives. Effective treatment of traditional Chinese medicine combined with western medicine can play a better role in the prevention and treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis. This study expounds the concept of spleen and stomach meridians in the prevention and treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis, and puts forward some opinions on the dialectical treatment and daily conditioning of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis, hoping to provide ideas for the clinical prevention and treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in traditional Chinese medicine.

Despite advanced medical technology, deep venous thrombosis continues to be a seriously underdiagnosed common postsurgical complication of the patient, particularly of lower extremity procedures, often requiring postoperative bed rest as in any routine podiatric surgery. Deep venous thrombosis and its complication, pulmonary embolism, are elusive clinical conditions since patients often tend to exhibit neither specific nor reliable signs or symptoms. However, the suspicion of the surgeon, generally based on subtle clinical manifestations, is the most important step in the diagnosis. Diagnosis will never be made unless he or she entertains the possibility. Since prevention of the potentially fatal outcome of pulmonary emboli secondary to deep venous thrombosis and possibly the serious morbidity caused by long-term sequelae in the lower extremity is now possible, the importance of an early, adequate diagnosis is indisputable. Diagnosis on clinical grounds alone is notoriously unreliable and objective tests are necessary to avoid overtreatment or undertreatment.

Autophagy is a self-protection mechanism of the body, and also an important physiological process for cells to maintain internal environment stability. Studies have shown that the degree of autophagy damage is positively correlated with the expression of oncogenes, and the expression of oncogenes is closely related to cervical HPV infection, so the control of autophagy ability can interfere with cervical HPV virus infection. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dampness-heat evil down, can damage and Chong Ren cell. The author believes that autophagy damage and the theory of dampness-heat injection in cervical HPV infection have similar pathogenic mechanism, and explores the prevention and treatment of autophagy and cervical HPV infection based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine dampness-heat injection, in attempt to provide a new treatment for clinical prevention and treatment.

The purpose of this paper is to think about the relationship between the thought of treating the disease of the Chinese medicine and preventing the subhealth. By discussing the connotation of traditional Chinese medicine and the concept of contemporary sub-health, it is considered that the prevention and cure of sub-health is the main category of "preventive treatment of disease". Both have different approaches but equally satisfactory results, while the Chinese use their own unique advantages, the clinical symptoms of Sub-health with personalized regulation and preventive effect, and opens up a new idea for clinical prevention and treatment of sub-health state.

Abstract Background Limited information exists on the incidence of postoperative deep venous thromboembolism (DVT) in patients with isolated patella fractures. The objective of this study was to investigate the postoperative incidence and locations of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremity in patients who underwent isolated patella fractures and identify the associated risk factors. Methods Medical data of 716 hospitalized patients was collected. The patients had acute isolated patella fractures and were admitted at the 3rd Hospital of Hebei Medical University between January 1, 2016, and February 31, 2019. All patients met the inclusion criteria. Medical data was collected using the inpatient record system, which included the patient demographics, patient’s bad hobbies, comorbidities, past medical history, fracture and surgery-related factors, hematological biomarkers, total hospital stay, and preoperative stay. Doppler examination was conducted for the diagnosis of DVT. Univariate analyses and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the independent risk factors. Results Among the 716 patients, DVT was confirmed in 29 cases, indicating an incidence of 4.1%. DVT involved bilateral limbs (injured and uninjured) in one patient (3.4%). DVT involved superficial femoral common vein in 1 case (3.4%), popliteal vein in 6 cases (20.7%), posterior tibial vein in 11 cases (37.9%), and peroneal vein in 11 cases (37.9%). The median of the interval between surgery and diagnosis of DVT was 4.0 days (range, 1.0-8.0 days). Six variables were identified to be independent risk factors for DVT which included age category (> 65 years old), OR, 4.44 (1.34-14.71); arrhythmia, OR, 4.41 (1.20-16.15); intra-operative blood loss, OR, 1.01 (1.00-1.02); preoperative stay (delay of each day), OR, 1.43 (1.15-1.78); surgical duration, OR, 1.04 (1.03-1.06); LDL-C (> 3.37 mmol/L), OR, 2.98 (1.14-7.76). Conclusion Incidence of postoperative DVT in patients with isolated patella fractures is substantial. More attentions should be paid on postoperative DVT prophylaxis in patients with isolated patella fractures. Identification of associated risk factors can help clinicians recognize the risk population, assess the risk of DVT, and develop personalized prophylaxis strategies.
