RESUMEN
Both osteoarthritis and impingement syndrome are the disorders commonly observed in sports medicine. However, failure in pain alleviation by surgical intervention introduces challenges in the diagnosis and decision-making for orthopedists. Hybrid single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) provides both functional and structural information of ankle pathology. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate whether bone tracer uptake by ankle SPECT/CT is related to the lesion type and visual analog scale (VAS) pain score for patients with osteoarthritis and bony impingement. Fifty individuals with chronic ankle pain who underwent pretreatment ankle SPECT/CT were included in the current study. The median follow-up period was 2.5 (range 1.8 to 3.2) years. The lesion types were categorized by the positions of anatomical changes and bone tracer uptake. The VAS pain score was recorded 2 weeks before and 1.5 year after surgical intervention. Twenty-nine (58%) of 50 patients had osseous impingement. Among them, 16 (55.2%), 4 (13.8%), and 9 (31%) patients had anterior, posterior, and both types of ankle impingement, respectively. The uptake grade of bone tracer was significantly related to the lesion type of ankle impingement (p < .001). The VAS pain score was significantly correlated with bone tracer uptake before treatment (p < .001). Bone tracer uptake was related to the lesion type of impingement detected by SPECT/CT and was confirmed by surgical findings. The VAS pain score was significantly correlated with the bone tracer uptake. Preoperative ankle SPECT/CT may be helpful to clinically correlate the VAS pain score in the pre- and postsurgical periods for patients with osteoarthritis and bony impingement syndrome.

This study explores the effects of C-myc gene silencing on cell proliferation, apoptosis and cytokine expression in interleukin (IL)-1ß-induced rat chondrocytes. Primary chondrocytes were obtained from 40 Sprague-Dawley rats. For in vitro C-myc3-shRNA transfection, chondrocytes were assigned to a blank 1, model 1, IL-1ß + C-myc3-shRNA, C-myc3-shRNA, (IL-1ß + C-myc3-shRNA) + C-myc overexpression, C-myc3-shRNA + C-myc overexpression or IL-1ß + C-myc-Con group. Western blotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were performed to detect C-myc, PCNA and cyclin D1 mRNA and protein expression. Cell proliferation was analyzed via CCK-8 assay and cell cycle while apoptosis was measured through flow cytometry. ELISA was utilized to assess the levels of metallopeptidase 13 (MMP-13), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Both the qRT-PCR and Western blotting results demonstrated that C-myc3-shRNA transfection inhibits C-myc expression and promotes PCNA and cyclin D1 expression. In comparison to the model 1 group, all groups except the (IL-1ß + C-myc3-shRNA) + C-myc overexpression and IL-1ß + C-myc-Con groups showed increases in cell proliferation and S phase cell count and decreases in G0/G1 phase cell count, cell apoptosis and MMP-13, IL-6 and TNF-α levels. The model 1, C-myc3-shRNA and C-myc3-shRNA + C-myc overexpression groups displayed higher cell proliferation and S phase cell count and reduced G0/G1 phase cell count, cell apoptosis and MMP-13, IL-6 and TNF-α levels than the IL-1ß + C-myc3-shRNA group. In comparison to the model 1 and C-myc3-shRNA + C-myc overexpression groups, the C-myc3-shRNA group promoted cell proliferation and S phase cell counts but suppressed G0/G1 phase cell count, cell apoptosis and MMP-13, IL-6 and TNF-α levels. In conclusion, the study demonstrates that C-myc gene silencing can promote cell proliferation and inhibit cell apoptosis and cytokine expression in IL-1ß-induced rat chondrocytes.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to investigate clinical characteristics and surgical management of Type III Wagstaffe fracture. METHODS: From August 2012 to July 2015, 13 patients with Type III Wagstaffe fractures were surgically treated. During operation, the cartilage of joint surface was explored. Wagstaffe fragment was fixed with cannulated screw or suture, Chaput fragment was fixed with cannulated screw or plate, and Cotton test was performed to evaluate the stability of syndesmosis during the operation. All the patients were followed up for 14.3 months in average. Clinical outcome was assessed with Olerud-Molander score and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score. The traumatic arthritis was evaluated with osteoarthritis-score (OA-score). RESULTS: During the operation, chondral injury was found on the lateral top of the talus in 8 cases, as "kissing lesion" of Chaput fragment. The fractures healed uneventfully and all the patients recovered satisfactorily except two had moderate restriction in ankle movement. The average Olerud-Molander score and AOFAS score were 82.3 and 86.1, respectively. CONCLUSION: Type III Wagstaffe is a rare and often missed fracture. 61% are associated with a chondral lesion on the lateral top of the talus. Anatomical reduction and rigid fixation of both fragments are mandatory to obtain ankle stability and good results.

Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease that seriously endangers the health of middle-aged and older adults. Recently, with the continuous deepening of research, an increasing number of studies have revealed gut microbiota as a potential target for osteoporosis, and the research concept of the gut-bone axis has gradually emerged. Additionally, the intake of dietary nutrients and the adoption of dietary patterns may affect the gut microbiota, and alterations in the gut microbiota might also influence the metabolic status of the host, thus adjusting bone metabolism. Based on the gut-bone axis, dietary intake can also participate in the modulation of bone metabolism by altering abundance, diversity, and composition of gut microbiota. Herein, combined with emerging literatures and relevant studies, this review is aimed to summarize the impacts of different dietary components and patterns on osteoporosis by acting on gut microbiota, as well as underlying mechanisms and proper dietary recommendations.

Flatfoot could be divided into flexible flatfoot and rigid flatfoot. Flatfoot with symptoms is called symptomatic flatfoot, surgical treatment is required if conservative treatment is not effective. Subtalar arthroereisis is a minimally invasive procedure which has been used for many years with good results in flexible flatfoot, however, still has many controversial points. Controversial points focus on indications and contraindications, optimal age, subtalar arthroereisis alone or not, efficacy and safety of absorbable material implants, and implant removal. The paper reviewed and summarized the use and controversies of subtalar arthroereisis in symptomatic flatfoot as follows:the best indication for subtalar arthroereisis was pediatric flexible flatfoot syndrome and aged from 10 to 12 years old was optimal age for treatment;tarsal coalitions with flatfoot and adult flatfoot were relative indications. Stiff flatfoot, joint laxity, and subtalar arthritis were contraindications;obesity and neurogenic flexible flatfoot were relative contraindications. The correction ability of subtalar arthroereisis alone was limited, and it's combined with other procedures depending on patient's situation. The safety and efficacy of absorbable material implants had been reported. Routine removal of the implant was not necessary, the main reason of which was tarsal sinus pain.

Recurrence of hallux valgus is one of the most common and difficult complications after surgery. Due to the lack of understanding of 3D deformity of hallux valgus and risk factors for recurrence, the overall recurrence rate is still high, and the choice of treatment is still controversial. Improper operation and severe deformity are known risk factors for recurrence, while the role of unstable of the first plantar train and combined flat foot deformity in the recurrence has been paid more attention by scholars at home and abroad. In addition to the first metatarsophalangeal fusion, modified Lapidus osteotomy and proximal metatarsal osteotomy have been proven to be reliable revision procedures. The purpose of this study is to summarize risk factors for recurrence of hallux valgus after surgery, and to explore the choice of revision surgery after recurrence, in order to provide guidance for prevention and management of recurrence of hallux valgus.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the surgical skills and clinical curative results of arthroscopic treatment of ankle instability combined with anteromedial impingement syndrome. METHODS: From February 2019 to August 2020, 13 patients with ankle instability combined with anteromedial impingement were retrospectively analyzed. There were 10 males and 3 females with age of (40.0±15.1) years old. The course of disease was(44.1±33.2) months. All patients had history of ankle sprain. MRI showed the injury of anterior talofibular ligament. All patients had anteromedial pain and pressing pain when ankle dorsiflexion. All patients were treated with ankle debridement and Brostr?m-Gould surgery under ankle arthroscopic. Postoperative results were evaluated by VAS(visual analogue scale) and AOFAS-AH(American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot scale, AOFAS-AH). RESULTS: All 13 patients completed the surgery successfully with an operative time of 60 to 90 minutes. All the surgical incisions healed by first intention, and no complications such as incision infection, skin necrosis and neurovascular injury. Follow-up time was (18.1±4.7) months. At the latest follow-up, the VAS score was 1.2±1.1, which was significantly lower than the preoperative score 4.8±1.5 (P<0.05);the AOFAS-AH score 94.2±5.1 was significantly higher than the preoperative score 65.5±11.5 (P<0.05). The AOFAS-AH score at the final follow-up ranged from 84 to 100. All patients walked with normal gait without ankle instability or impingement recurrence. CONCLUSION: Ankle anteromedial impingement syndrome combined with ankle instability is easy to be ignored clinically. Such kind of anteromedial impingement syndrome is mostly related to osteophyte at dorsal medial talar neck. Arthroscopic treatment of ankle instability combined with anteromedial impingement syndrome has satisfactory curative effect with safety and minimal injury.

OBJECTIVE: To explore early efficacy of minimally invasive Chevron Akin(MICA) osteotomy for the treatment of mild to moderate hallux valgus. METHODS: From June 2019 to April 2021, a total of 26 patients (29 feet) with mild to moderate hallux valgus, including 1 male and 25 females aged from 19 to 78 years old with an average of(38.3±19.5) years old, were treated with MICA. Preoperative and postoperative hallux valgus angle(HVA), intermetatarsal angle(IMA) and shortening of the first metatarsal were observed and compared. American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) forefoot scoring system and visual analogue scale (VAS) were applied to evaluate clinical outcome at the final follow-up, and complications were also recorded. RESULTS: All patients obtained followed up from 12 to 33 months with an average of(19.6±5.1) months. HVA and IMA was improved from (32.3±6.6)° and (11.7±3.2)° pre-operatively to (13.0±5.3)° and (6.1±3.2)° post-operatively, respectively, which had a significant difference (P<0.01). The average shortening of the first metatarsal was (2.7±1.1) mm. AOFAS and VAS was improved from (55.7±7.4) and (6.5±1.5) preoperatively and to (88.5±7.9) and (0.7±0.4) respectively at the final follow-up, which also had a significant difference(P<0.01). According to AOFAS score, 15 feet achieved an excellent result, 11 good and 3 moderate. CONCLUSION: MICA osteotomy is a safe and reliable surgical technique for mild to moderate hallux valgus with advantages of minimally invasive, rapid recovery, low complication rate and an effect improvement of hallux valgus deformity.

BACKGROUND: A special type of trimalleolar fracture with the involvement of the entire posterior tibial plafond has been reported recently. Because of the low incidence, the characteristics of the fracture in different studies have not been consistent. We describe our clinical experience with this fracture type. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From January 2007 to December 2009, 12 patients were identified with a trimalleolar fracture with involvement of entire posterior tibial plafond. All the fractures were openly reduced and fixed through a combined operative approach (posterolateral and posteromedial). Ten of 12 patients were followed up. The clinical outcome was assessed with the Short Form-36 (SF-36) and standardized AAOS foot and ankle questionnaire, and the radiological evaluation with an osteoarthritis-score (OA-score). RESULTS: Based on the pathoanatomy of the posteromedial malleolar fragment, all the fractures could be classified into two types. Using a combined operative approach, anatomical reduction and stable fixation was accomplished in all 12 patients. At a mean followup of 18.9 (range, 12 to 30) months, 10 patients achieved a good radiological result and satisfactory clinical recovery. CONCLUSION: This fracture pattern may be classified into two types with different injury mechanisms, which has not been described previously. After anatomic reduction and stable fixation through a combined operative approach, the short-term outcome was good.

OBJECTIVE: To report the outcome of surgical treatment of tarsometatarsal joint complex injury. METHODS: In the period from January 2003 to December 2008, 167 cases of closed tarsometatarsal joint injury were treated, including 35 cases of tarsometatarsal joint complex injury. Diagnosis was made by X-ray examination or/and CT scan. Either close or open reduction was performed and followed by internal fixation with screw or/and plate. X-ray examination was done in the regular follow-up and functional evaluation was carried out by AOFAS midfoot score system. RESULTS: In this series 135 cases got a mean follow-up of 48 months, ranging from 12 to 75 months. Therein the 26 cases of tarsometatarsal joint complex injury had a mean postoperative AOFAS midfoot score of 67 (ranging from 48 to 75), and secondary post-traumatic arthritis in 16 cases, 12 of which had arthrodesis as a result of severe pain. The 109 cases of pure tarsometatarsal joint injury had a mean postoperative AOFAS midfoot score of 82 (ranging from 70 to 95), and secondary post-traumatic arthritis in 17 cases, only 5 of which had arthrodesis finally. Those cases of pure tarsometatarsal joint injury treated by close reduction and internal fixation with percutaneous screw got a mean postoperative AOFAS midfoot score of 87 (ranging from 82 to 95), demonstrating a significant deference (t = 2.651, P < 0.05) when compared with that of metatarsal joint complex injury. CONCLUSION: The tarsometatarsal joint complex injury has a prognosis inferior to that of the pure tarsometatarsal joint injury, and the keys to its successful treatment are appropriate diagnosis, anatomical reduction and secure fixation of all the components of the complex.

This study investigated clinical outcomes of biomimetic mineralized collagen artificial bone putty for bone reconstruction in the treatment of calcaneus fracture. Sixty cases of calcaneal fractures surgically treated with open reduction and internal fixation in our hospital from June 2014-2015 were chosen and randomly divided into two groups, including 30 cases treated with biomimetic mineralized collagen artificial bone putty as treatment group, and 30 cases treated with autogenous ilia as control group. The average follow-up time was 17.2 ± 3.0 months. The results showed that the surgery duration and postoperative drainage volume of treatment group were significantly lower than control group; there were no statistically significant differences in the fracture healing time, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society scores at 3 and 12 months after surgery, Böhler's angle, Gissane's angle and height of calcaneus between the two groups. There were no significant differences in wound complication and reject reaction between the two groups, while significant difference in donor site complication. As a conclusion, the implantation of biomimetic mineralized collagen artificial bone putty in the open reduction of calcaneal fracture resulted in reliable effect and less complications, which is suitable for clinical applications in the treatment of bone defect in calcaneal fractures.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Hypoxia is a common feature of many solid cancers and linked to malignant transformation, metastases and treatment resistance. Hypoxia is known to induce hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) expression. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of overexpression of HIF-1alpha on prognosis and the relationship with clinicopathological characteristics in human osteosarcoma. METHODS: Immunochemistry with digital image analysis was used to determine the HIF-1alpha protein expression in histologic sections from 39 treated patients. RESULTS: According to our study, expression of HIF-1alpha protein were detected in 31 of 39 cases (79%), with signal concentrated primarily within the nuclei of tumor cell. In contrast, non-cancerous adjacent tissues showed no HIF-1alpha immunoreactivity. HIF-1alpha expression was significantly associated with surgical stage, percentage of dead cells and microvessel density (MVD). Surgical stage, percentage of dead cells and HIF-1alpha expression showed significant influence on overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in univariate analysis. In multivariate analysis, surgical stage (IIA versus IIB/III) and percentage of dead cells (<90% versus > or =90%) were significant for DFS and OS. Those patients with HIF-1alpha moderate/strong expression showed significantly shorter OS and DFS compared with HIF-1alpha negative/weak expression. CONCLUSIONS: Overexpression of HIF-1alpha is predictive of a poor outcome and might be a novel therapeutic target in human osteosarcoma.

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore the relationship between PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and autophagy of articular chondrocytes in rats with osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: Rat articular chondrocytes were isolated and cultured, and then induced by protein inhibitors of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Chondrocytes were assigned into blank group, IL-1ß induction group (IL-1ß group), PI3K inhibitor+IL-1ß induction group (PI3Ki+IL-1ß group), AKT inhibitor+IL-1ß induction group (AKTi+IL-1ß group) and mTOR inhibitor+IL-1ß induction group (mTORi+IL-1ß group). Cell proliferation activity was detected by MTT assay, cell cycle by flow cytometry and cell autophagy by monodansylcadaverine (MDC) staining. Autophagy rates were evaluated by GFP-LC3 fluorescence microscopy. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect mRNA expressions of autophagy-related genes (Atg5 and Atg7). Western blotting was utilized to detect expressions of autophagy markers (LC3, Beclin1 and p62) and of relevant proteins in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. RESULTS: The cell proliferation rate of the IL-1ß group was lower than that of the blank group after cells were cultured for 24h, and the cell proliferation rates of the PI3Ki+IL-1ß group, the AKTi+IL-1ß group and the mTORi+IL-1ß group were higher than those of the IL-1ß group. In comparison with the blank group, cells in the IL-1ß group were arrested at the G1 phase and decreased in the S phase, MDC positive staining cells were decreased with attenuated staining intensity, the autophagy rate was decreased, the mRNA expressions of Atg5 and Atg7 and the protein expressions of LC3, Beclin1 and p62 were significantly down-regulated. While in the groups of PI3Ki+IL-1ß, AKTi+IL-1ß and mTORi+IL-1ß, haploid cells were reduced, coupled with an increased proportion of cells in the S phase and decreased proportion of cells in the G1 phase, the autophagy rate was increased, the mRNA expressions of Atg5 and Atg7 and the protein expressions of LC3, Beclin1 and p62 were significantly up-regulated. Compared with the blank group, the protein phosphorylation levels of PI3K, AKT and mTOR were elevated, while there were no significant difference observed in the total amount of PI3K, AKT and mTOR in the IL-1ß group. Meanwhile, there were relatively low protein phosphorylation levels of PI3K, AKT and mTOR in the groups of PI3Ki+IL-1ß, AKTi+IL-1ß and mTORi+IL-1ß. CONCLUSIONS: Inflammation could inhibit the proliferation and cell cycle of rat chondrocytes and reduce the autophagy rate. Inhibition of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway could promote the autophagy of articular chondrocytes and attenuate inflammation response in rats with OA.

Minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) was compared with traditional open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in treating distal tibial fractures. Patients diagnosed with displaced extraarticular distal tibial fractures during October 2005-June 2007 were randomly assigned to a closed (treated using MIPPO) and an open (treated using ORIF) group. Ninety-four patients with fractures were treated and followed up, of which 42 and 52 patients were enrolled in the open and closed groups, respectively. The 94 fracture cases were classified into three types: Type A, 52 (55.3%); Type B, 24 (25.5%); and Type C, 18 (19.1%). The average follow-up time was 15.6 and 16.2 months for the open and closed groups, respectively. In the open group, 35 fractures healed within six months. Delayed union was observed in three fractures and nonunion in four fractures. Two cases had superficial wound infection after operation. No malunion was observed. In the closed group, 47 fractures healed within six months. Delayed union was observed in four fractures. Locking plate was broken nine months after operation in one case. Malunion was observed in five cases: two rotational and three posterior angular deformities. No statistically significant differences were observed in the healing time of Types A and B between the open and closed groups (p > .05). The healing time of Type C in the open group was longer than that in the closed group (p < .05). The first choice for Type C fractures is MIPPO, whereas that for Type A is open reduction.
