Surgical factors that contribute to tibial periprosthetic fracture after cementless Oxford Unicompartmental Knee Replacement: a finite element analysis by Xiaoyi Min, Laurence Marks, Stephen Mellon, Takafumi Hiranaka, David Murray

“…Suboptimal saw cuts resulted in poor positioning of the tibial components and created very high local stresses in the bone, particularly anteriorly (157 MPa and 702 MPa in the fractured side vs. 49 MPa and 63 MPa in the unfractured side in patient 1 and 2 respectively), causing fractures.ConclusionIn small patients with marked tibia vara the surgery is unforgiving. To avoid fracture, the horizontal cut should be conservative, aiming for a 3 bearing, the vertical cut should abut the apex of the medial tibial spine, and extreme internal or external rotation should be avoided. …”

Machine learning for the prediction of augmented renal clearance (ARC) in patients with sepsis in critical care units by Tong Wu, Ruo-Yu Zhuang, Yun-Zhe Wu, Xiao-Li Wang, Hong-ping Qu, Dan-Feng Dong, Yi-De Lu, Jing-yi Wu

“…The Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model had the best predictive performance (AUC: 0.841) with the highest balanced accuracy (0.778) and the second-highest NPV (0.950). The maximum creatinine level, maximum blood urea nitrogen level, minimum creatinine level, and history of renal disease were found to be the four most significant parameters through SHAP analysis. …”

Riverbed Surface Settlement Patterns Induced by Pipe Jacking Construction in River-Crossing Sections by SHENG Song-tao, AN Zi-yue, ZHOU Hong-yun, LIU Jie

“…In engineering practice, it is necessary to balance the selection of pipe diameter (large diameters improve jacking efficiency but increase subsidence risk), optimize grouting pressure (to suppress subsidence and avoid excessive uplift), and improve the disturbance resistance of soft soil through reinforcement (such as pre-grouting). (2) This study is the first to construct a 3D fluid-solid interaction model for pipe jacking in the river-crossing section, combining the strength reduction method and parameter sensitivity analysis to provide a theoretical basis for similar projects. …”

Effects of Transmission Ratio on the Nonlinear Vibration Characteristics of a Gear-Driven High-Speed Centrifugal Pump by Anmin Zhou, Lulu Zhai, Zuchao Zhu, Jia Guo, Xinglin Zhang, Baoling Cui

“…Quite different from those under the other states, under this jump motion state, the 0.2fg component and 0.5fp component will appear in the vibration responses of both gears and become the most contributed two factors to the responses of the driven gear. (3) In the design process, the transmission ratio of a high-speed centrifugal pump with a simplified GRSB system should be specially designed to avoid the jump-point state and the maximum-amplitude-of-fm state to ensure the stability of the system as well as reduce the mechanical impacts and noises.…”
