Objective: To explore the correlation of blood thrombomodulin (TM), triglyceride (TG) and D-Dimer (D-D) with the formation of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out focusing on the clinical data of 150 patients with THA who were admitted to Sichuan Provincial Orthopedic Hospital from May 2019 to May 2022 (the study group). These patients were then subdivided into Group-A (46 cases with DVT) and Group-B (104 cases without DVT) according to whether DVT occurred after an operation. Meanwhile, another 70 patients who received physical examination in this hospital in the same period were selected as the control group. Furthermore, the levels of TM, TG, D-D, fibrinogen (Fb) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were compared between the groups. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the relationship between the levels of TM, TG, D-D, Fb, CRP and the formation of DVT. Results: The levels of TM, TG, D-D, Fb and CRP in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group (p<0.05). The above indicators in Group-A were higher than those in Group-B one day after the operation (p<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the levels of TM, TG, D-D, Fb and CRP were significantly positively correlated with the formation of DVT. Conclusion: Patients with DVT after THA show an increase in the levels of TM, TG, D-D, Fb and CRP, indicating their diagnostic value for the formation of DVT. Findings in our study suggest that clinical tests of these indicators can be carried out according to the actual situation of patients. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.39.2.6989 How to cite this: Luo H, Qiao Y.

Knowledge bases allow effective access paths in digital libraries.Here users can specify their information need as graph patterns for precise searches and structured overviews (by allowing variables in queries). But especially when considering textual sources that contain narrative information, i.e., short stories of interest, harvesting statements from them to construct knowledge bases may be a serious threat to the statements' validity. A piece of information, originally stated in a coherent line of arguments, could be used in a knowledge base query processing without considering its vital context conditions. And this can lead to invalid results. That is why we argue to move towards narrative information access by considering contexts in the query processing step. In this way digital libraries can allow users to query for narrative information and supply them with valid answers. In this paper we define narrative information access, demonstrate its benefits for Covid 19 related questions, and argue on the generalizability for other domains such as political sciences.
