We specifically evaluate perioperative indicators, postoperative hip function, and the rate of internal fixation failure.Methods300 elderly IF patients treated in our hospital from July 2018 to May 2022 were divided into the PFNA group (n = 150), control group (n = 150), PFNA group treated with PFNA, and control group treated with mobility hip screw (DHS). Perioperative bleeding, operation time, postoperative time and hospital time were observed in the two groups: fracture reduction, hip function at 1 and 6 months after surgery, and failure of internal fixation. Observe the postoperative internal fixation failure in the PFNA group.ResultsThe intraoperative blood loss, operation time, first postoperative time and hospital time in the PFNA group were less than in the control group (P < 0.05). One month after surgery, the Harris score of the PFNA group was less than that of the control group (P < 0.05); the Harris score was not different at 6 months (P > 0.05). The excellent rate of fracture reduction in the PFNA group was greater than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The failure rate of internal fixation in the PFNA group was less than that in the control group (P < 0.05). By univariate analysis, Sing Index classification, Evans classification, 25 min and underlying disease were risk factors for postoperative internal fixation failure in PFNA patients (P < 0.05).

However, the egocentric reference frame can change with the presence of another person. Immersive virtual reality (IVR) offers several advantages over paper-and-pencil tests typically used to assess HN, such as a realistic and controlled environment, standardised stimulus presentation, and sensitive response acquisition. We developed a new serious game in IVR to assess HN. Here we investigated (1) the feasibility and user experience of this serious game, and (2) the effect of the presence of an avatar on HN.MethodsWe first tested a group of 61 control individuals (CI), followed by a group of post-stroke 11 individuals without HN (SI:HN-), 6 with HN (SI:HN+), and 17 resampled age matched group of control individuals (CI). All participants performed the \"Peach test\", which required them to find and respond to a target presented among distractors, either alone or in the presence of an avatar. We measured response time (RT) and omissions. The SI:HN- and SI:HN + groups also completed a paper-and-pencil test for HN and a user experience questionnaire.ResultsThe first analysis of results with CI showed no differences in responding to the target when in ipsi- compared to contra-lateral spaces, nor in peri- compared to extra-personal spaces. There were also no differences in responding to the target in the no-avatar condition relative to the two avatars conditions. In the second analysis, SI:HN + were slower than SI:HN- and CI. Although an interaction between group and Laterality was predicted, the results showed that there was no Laterality effect for any of the groups. An interaction between group and proximity, showed that both SI groups were slower in the extra- compared to peri-personal spaces. The user experience was globally positively rated by the SI.ConclusionWe developed a serious game in IVR for the assessment of HN.
