Objective To investigate the specific variables and influence factors of Harris scores in follow-up data of patients with internal fixation of femoral neck fracture. Methods From May 1999 to May 2004, 99 cases of femoral neck fracture receiving close reduction with cannulated screw and having complete follow-up data were evaluated in terms of age, sex, type of bone fracture (Garden classification), reduction time, reduction qual ity (Garden indicators), time of full weight-loading, removal of internal fixation, traction before operation, side of bone fracture, necrosis of femoral head, duration of follow-up and Harris score during follow-up period. Univariate and multivariate were analyzed by SPSS14.0 and SAS8.2. Results P-P probabil ity plot and normal test revealed the Harris scores were non-normal distribution (W=0.757 09, P=0.000 1). By nonparametric test in univatiate analysis, the following variables in Harris scores were of statistic significance: the time of reduction (U=— 2.289, P=0.022), the Garden classifaction (H=16.943, P=0.001), the time of full weight-bearing (U=— 3.069, P=0.002), the qual ity of reduction (U=— 3.448, P=0.001) and the necrosis of femoral head (U=— 4.723, P=0.000).By the analysis of correlation, the following variables in Harris scores were of statistic significance: Garden classification(rs=— 0.412, P=0.000), the time of reduction (rs=— 0.231, P=0.021), the qual ity of reduction (rs=— 0.348, P=0.000), the time of full weight-bearing (rs=— 0.310, P=0.002), and the necrosis of femoral head (rs=— 0.477, P=0.000). By the univariate logistic regression analysis, the following variables in Harris scores were of statistic significance: Garden classification (P=0.000 1), the time of reduction (P=0.012 6), the qual ity of reduction (P=0.000 3), the time of full weight-bearing (P=0.003 2), the traction before operation (P=0.049 2) and the necrosis of femoral head (P=0.000 1). By the multivariate logistic regression analysis, the influence factors of Harris scores rank included the necrosis of femoral head (P=0.000 1), the time of reduction (P=0.028 2), and Garden classification (P=0.000 7). Conclusion Harris scores is of non-normal distribution, and the necrosis of femoral head is the most important factor influencing the function after applying internal fixation with cannulated screws to femoral neck fracture.
