All patients were diagnosed with fracture-related infection by preoperative magnetic resonance examination, bacterial culture and gene detection and received antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate implantation. The postoperative serous exudation was recorded through hospitalization observation, outpatient review or follow-up. The collected clinical data were sorted out, and the patient data were divided into serous exudation groups and non-exudation groups. Firstly, the clinical data of the two groups were compared by single-factor analysis to screen out the risk factors. Then multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis determined the independent risk factors and protective factors.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    1) According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, there were 145 cases with complete clinical data, including 27 cases in the non-infectious exudation group and 118 cases in the non-exudative group; 2) Univariate analysis showed that the history of diabetes, smoking history, calcium sulfate implantation, drainage time, combined flap surgery, geometric shape of implanted calcium sulfate, and thickness of soft tissue covered by the surgical area were all associated with the occurrence of non-infectious exudation after antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate implantation (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &amp;lt; 0.05); 3) The amount of implanted calcium sulfate was more [OR = 5.310, (1.302\u201321.657),\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.020], combined with flap surgery [OR = 3.565, (1.195\u201310.641),\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.023], and the thickness of soft tissue coverage in the operation area was thinner [OR = 5.305, (1.336\u201321.057),\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.018].

This complication may cause a heavier economic and psychological burden on patients; 2) With the increase of bone infection area and the application of more calcium sulfate, the incidence of serous exudation after antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate surgery in patients with the fracture-related infection will increase, so we should use the amount of calcium sulfate reasonably on the premise of sufficient control of infection in clinical work, and the incidence of serous exudation will also increase due to the recent skin flap surgery and the thinner soft tissue coverage of calcium sulfate implantation area; 3) Under the premise of being able to drain the drainage from the surgical area, the longer drainage time of the drainage tube has a positive effect on preventing the occurrence of serous exudation.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fbioe.2023.1189085","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,6]],"date-time":"2023-06-06T02:15:13Z","timestamp":1686017713000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Analysis of risk factors for serous exudation of biodegradable material calcium sulfate in the treatment of fracture-related infections"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Bing","family":"Du","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Su","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dongchen","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shuai","family":"Ji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yao","family":"Lu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yibo","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yanling","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kun","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhong","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Teng","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"S46","DOI":"10.1097\/BOT.0b013e3181cec48e","article-title":"Calcium sulfates: What is the evidence?","volume":"24","author":"Beuerlein","year":"2010","journal-title":"J.
