RESUMO
Lumbar spondylolysis is one of the common diseases of low back pain caused by spinal surgery. Its treatment options vary depending on different conditions, from early conservative ones to late surgical ones. There are still disputes over various conservative treatments, choice of surgical methods and the biomechanics of different internal fixation techniques to repair spondylolysis. Therefore, this review summarizes the clinical outcomes of previous clinical treatments of lumbar spondylolysis and the biomechanical characteristics of various techniques to find the mechanical and evidence-based clinical data that may facilitate the treatment of lumbar spondylolysis.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the predictive effect of sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC) score level on the prognosis of septic patients under sepsis 3.0 criteria.Methods:A retrospective single-center observational study was conducted on the septic patients admitted to the department of critical care medicine and the department of emergency in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from August 2016 to July 2021. The baseline data, laboratory indexes and SIC scores of the patients were collected on the first and fourth (4th) day after hospitalization. Whether the patients were survival within 30 days after enrollment was recorded. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the independent risk factors for 30-day mortality in septic patients. The receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of SIC score on the 30-day prognosis of septic patients.Results:A total of 173 patients met the inclusion criteria including 111 (64%) survivors and 62 (36%) non-survivors. There were significant differences in lymphocyte count (LYM), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2) and cardiovascular SOFA score between the survival group and the non-survival group. And there were no significant differences in other indexes. On the first day of admission, there were statistically significant differences in PaO 2/FiO 2, cardiovascular SOFA score, LYM, SIC score between the non-survival group and the survival group. There were significant differences in international normalized ratio (INR), prothrombin activity (PTA), prothrombin time (PT), PaO 2/FiO 2, cardiovascular SOFA score, LYM, C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) between the two groups on the 4th day after admission. The mortality of septic patients increased with the increase of SIC score. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that SIC score and LYM on the 4th day after admission were independent risk factors for 30-day mortality in septic patients (both P < 0.05). The ROC curve showed that SIC score had a certain predictive value for the 30-day prognosis of septic patients [area under the ROC curve (AUC) = 0.712, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.629-0.794, P < 0.001]. The predictive value of SIC score combined with LYM was better than that of the two alone (AUC = 0.748, 95% CI was 0.688-0.828, P < 0.001). Conclusions:The SIC score has a certain predictive value for the 30-day prognosis of septic patients. The predictive value of SIC score combined with LYM is better than that of the two alone, which is expected to be a potential indicator for early assessment of the condition and prognosis of septic patients.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effect of hypercapnia at admission on the clinical prognosis and the severity of infection in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP).Methods:The clinical data of 219 SCAP patients admitted to the department of emergency & critical care medicine of Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from December 2017 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) within 1 day after admission, the patients were divided into hypocapnia group [HO group, PaCO 2 < 35 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa)], normal carbonation group (NC group, PaCO 2 35-45 mmHg) and hypercapnia group (HC group, PaCO 2 > 45 mmHg). The clinical parameters of patients, such as gender, age, underlying diseases, white blood cell (WBC), procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), pH value and lactate (Lac) within 1 day after admission were reviewed. The oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), pneumonia severity index (PSI) score and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score were evaluated. The change tendencies of each index on day 1, day 3, and day 5 after admission were observed subsequently. Meanwhile, the rate of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), length of hospital stays and 28-day mortality among three groups were compared. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to assess the 28-day cumulative survival rate of patients with SCAP among three groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the risk factors of IMV and 28-day death in patients with SCAP. Results:Compared with the HO group ( n = 68) and NC group ( n = 72), the HC group ( n = 79) had higher proportion of preexisting comorbid chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and PSI score, lower PCT, CRP, IL-6, and pH values. Compared with the HO group and NC group, there were smaller improvement trends on the levels of WBC, PCT, CRP, IL-6, PaO 2/FiO 2 and Lac at day 3 and day 5 as compared with day 1 in the HC group. On the 5th day after admission, the levels of WBC, PCT, CRP, IL-6, and Lac in the HC group were significantly higher than those in the HO group and NC group [WBC (×10 9/L): 18.33±1.44 vs. 10.89±2.37, 11.15±1.74; PCT (μg/L): 5.04±1.18 vs. 3.46±0.87, 3.58±0.83; CRP (mg/L): 78.43±7.17 vs. 54.24±4.97, 57.93±5.39; IL-6 (ng/L): 75.35±11.92 vs. 60.11±10.27, 57.88±12.34; Lac (mmol/L): 4.36±1.24 vs. 0.78±0.39, 0.86±0.64; all P < 0.01], and the lowest in PaO 2/FiO 2 was found in the HC group as compared with the HO and NC groups (mmHg: 171.31±6.73 vs. 226.68±7.36, 225.93±6.92, both P < 0.01). Compared with the HO group and NC group, the HC group had highest proportion of IMV (29.1% vs. 22.1%, 22.2%, both P < 0.01) and 28-day mortality (26.6% vs. 13.2%, 13.9%, both P < 0.01). Even when the patients with COPD were excluded from the analysis, the differences persisted among the groups. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis suggested that HC group had a higher 28-day cumulative survival rate as compared with the HO and NC groups (Log-Rank test: χ 12 = 4.976, P1 = 0.026; χ 22 = 4.629, P2 = 0.031). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that IL-6, PSI score and hypercapnia within 1 day and PCT on the 5th day after admission were the independent risk factors of requiring IMV and 28-day death in patients with SCAP [odds ratio ( OR) were 0.325, 1.229, 1.396, 1.313, respectively, all P < 0.01]. Even when patients with COPD were excluded from the analysis, the above results had not been changed. Conclusion:Hypercapnia at admission was associated with higher proportion of IMV and 28-day mortality in patients with SCAP, which may be related to its early suppression of inflammation and then increment of infection.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the mechanism of resveratrol on ameliorating the cognitive dysfunction induced by sepsis associated encephalopathy (SAE) in rats.Methods:The 12 weeks old male Sprague-dawley (SD) male rats were randomly divided into sham group, sepsis group and resveratrol group, with 30 rats in each group. The rat model of sepsis was made by injecting LPS (10 mg/kg) into tail vein. The rats in sham group was given the same amount of normal saline (NS). After LPS injection, resveratrol (8 mg·kg -1·d -1) was intraperitoneally injected once daily for 2 days in the resveratrol group; the same amount of NS was given to the sepsis group and sham group. At 24 hours after model establishment, the cognitive function of the experimental rats was assessed by the Morris water maze test. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability was evaluated by the brain water content (BWC) and Evans blue (EB) test. The protein expressions of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), Occludin and Claudin-5 in cortical tissue were detected by Western Blot. Double immunofluorescence was used to verify the co-localization of MMP-9 protein and the marker protein of astrocyte GFAP in the cortical tissue of rats. Results:Compared with the sham group, the escape latency in the sepsis group was significantly longer [48-hour escape latency (s): 56.56±6.43 vs. 36.62±3.32, 72-hour escape latency (s): 57.72±7.23 vs. 26.46±4.24, both P < 0.01], the BWC and extravasation of EB were increased [BWC: (84.56±2.03)% vs. (76.82±2.22)%, EB (μg/g): 17.56±2.28 vs. 6.25±1.36, both P < 0.01], the expression of MMP-9 protein was increased (MMP-9/β-actin: 0.73±0.01 vs. 0.24±0.01, P < 0.01), the protein expressions of Occludin and Claudin-5 were decreased (Occludin/β-actin: 0.45±0.02 vs. 0.86±0.04, Claudin-5/β-actin: 0.62±0.03 vs. 0.96±0.05, both P < 0.01). At the same time, the co-localization expression of MMP-9 protein and the astrocytes of the cortical were increased [MMP-9 fluorescence intensity (AU): 38.66±4.26 vs. 17.23±3.04, MMP-9 positive cells: (26.92±1.77)% vs. (12.82±1.46)%, both P < 0.01]. Compared with the sepsis group, the escape latency in resveratrol group was significantly shorter [48-hour escape latency (s): 41.42±6.27 vs. 56.56±6.43, 72-hour escape latency (s): 33.46±7.17 vs. 57.72±7.23, both P < 0.01], the BWC and extravasation of EB were decreased [BWC: (77.15±2.27)% vs. (84.56±2.03)%, EB (μg/g): 7.74±1.88 vs. 17.56±2.28, both P < 0.01], the expression of MMP-9 protein was decreased (MMP-9/β-actin: 0.25±0.01 vs. 0.73±0.01, P < 0.01), the protein expressions of Occludin and Claudin-5 were increased (Occludin/β-actin: 0.82±0.03 vs. 0.45±0.02, Claudin-5/β-actin: 0.92±0.04 vs. 0.62±0.03, both P < 0.01). At the same time, the co-localization expression of MMP-9 protein and the astrocytes of the cortical were decreased [MMP-9 fluorescence intensity (AU): 19.44±4.37 vs. 38.66±4.26, MMP-9 positive cells: (13.11±1.29)% vs. (26.92±1.77)%, both P < 0.01]. Conclusion:Resveratrol can inhibit the expression of MMP-9 protein in the astrocytes of the cortical cortex of rats, and then reduce the degradation of tight junction proteins of Occludin and Claudin-5, thereby reducing BBB permeability and eventually ameliorate the cognitive dysfunction induced by SAE.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of active abdominal compression-decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation (AACD-CPR) in patients with pre-hospital respiratory and cardiac arrest.Methods Forty-five patients with respiratory and cardiac arrest,and with contraindication of chest compression admitted to Baiyin Central Hospital of Gansu Province from March 2012 to September 2018 were enrolled,and they were divided into two groups according to random number table.AACD-CPR (abdominal compression-decompression group,n =24) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with unarmed abdominal compression (unarmed abdominal pressure group,n =21) were performed respectively.The success rate of rescue was observed in the two groups,and the changes in heart rate (HR),pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) and blood pressure 30 minutes after CPR in patients with restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) were observed.Results Among the 24 patients in the abdominal compression-decompression group,5 patients (20.83%) had ROSC,and 2 patients (9.52%) had ROSC in 21 patients of the unarmed abdominal pressure group.The success rate of resuscitation in the abdominal compression-decompression group was significantly higher than that in the unarmed abdominal pressure group (P < 0.05).HR of ROSC patients at 30 minutes of CPR in abdominal compression-decompression group was significantly lower than that in unarmed abdominal compression group (bpm:139.45±5.08 vs.147.62±5.24,P < 0.05),and SpO2 and blood pressure were significantly higher than those in unarmed abdominal compression group with significant differences [SpO2:0.92 ± 0.03 vs.0.85 ± 0.03,systolic blood pressure (SBP,mmHg,1 mmHg =0.133 kPa):118.23 ± 3.26 vs.98.51 ± 3.10,diastolic blood pressure (DBP,mmHg):60.10 ± 2.50 vs.56.36 ± 2.45,all P < 0.05].Conclusion The effect of AACD-CPR was superior to that of unarmed abdominal pressure CPR,which had higher application value to rescue patients with respiratory and cardiac arrest with chest pressure contraindication.

RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To explore whether β1 receptor blocker could decrease the myocardial inflammation through the Toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-ΚB (TLR4/NF-ΚB) signaling pathway in the sepsis adult rats.@*METHODS@#Sixty male Wistar rats (250-300 g) aged 3 months old were allocated to four groups by random number table (n = 15): sham operation group (S group), sepsis model group (CLP group), β1 receptor blocker esmolol intervention group (ES group), and inhibitor of the TLR4 E5564 intervention group (E5564 group). The rat sepsis model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP); S group of rats underwent only an incision. Rats in S group, CLP group and E5564 group were subcutaneous injected with 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl) 2.0 mL/kg. Besides, the rats in ES group were injected with esmolol (15 mg×kg-1×h-1) by micro pump through the caudal vein. The rats in E5564 group were injected with E5564 (0.3 mg×kg-1×h-1) by micro pump through the caudal vein 1 hour before the CLP surgery. Samples were collected 6 hours after the modelling in each group. The average arterial pressure (MAP) and cardiac output index (CI) were monitored by PU electrical conduction ECG monitor. The levels of serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expressions of TLR4, NF-ΚB p65, IL-1β, TNF-α in myocardial tissue was detected by Western Blot.@*RESULTS@#There was no significant difference in MAP in each group. Compared with the S group, the CI in the CLP group was significantly decreased, the levels of serum cTnI, IL-1β, TNF-α were significantly increased, the protein expressions of myocardial tissue TLR4, NF-ΚB p65, IL-1β and TNF-α were significantly increased. Compared with the CLP group, the CI in the ES group and E5564 group were significantly increased (mL×s-1×m-2: 58.6±4.3, 58.9±4.4 vs. 41.2±3.9, both P < 0.01), the levels of serum cTnI, IL-1β and TNF-α were significantly decreased [cTnI (μg/L): 1 113.81±26.64, 1 115.74±25.90 vs. 1 975.96±42.74; IL-1β (ng/L): 39.6±4.3, 38.9±4.4 vs. 61.2±3.9; TNF-α (ng/L): 43.1±2.8, 48.7±2.6 vs. 81.3±4.4, all P < 0.01], the protein expressions of myocardial tissue NF-ΚB p65, IL-1β, TNF-α were significantly decreased (NF-ΚB p65/β-actin: 0.31±0.03, 0.43±0.04 vs. 0.85±0.08; IL-1β/β-actin: 0.28±0.05, 0.32±0.03 vs. 0.71±0.06; TNF-α/β-actin: 0.18±0.04, 0.28±0.03 vs. 0.78±0.07, all P < 0.01), but there was no significant difference in protein expression of TLR4 (TLR4/β-actin: 0.89±0.07, 0.87±0.09 vs. 0.95±0.09, both P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in CI, the levels of serum cTnI, IL-1β, TNF-α, and the protein expressions of myocardial tissue TLR4, NF-ΚB p65, IL-1β, TNF-α between ES group and E5564 group (all P > 0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#β1 receptor blocker esmolol may inhibit myocardial inflammatory response in sepsis adult rats through TLR4/NF-ΚB signaling pathway, thereby alleviating sepsis-induced myocardial injury.

RESUMO
Total knee arthroplasty is an effective method for the treatment of end-stage knee osteoarthrosis, which can effectively relieve joint pain and reconstruct the integrity of the joint. Whether the posterior cruciate ligament should be preserved during surgery or not, which is still in dispute. In recent years, posterior cruciate-retaining and substituting total knee prostheses are both applied in clinical practice. Both domestic and international studies have shown that there are no significant difference in patient satisfaction, knee flexion, survival rate of the prosthesis and the main clinical manifestations between two prostheses. However, posterior cruciate-retaining total knee prosthesis is more consistent with the normal physiology and biomechanics of the human body. The gait is more balanced and proprioceptive when walking up and down the stairs, but when the joints are buckling, the femur is abnormal to move back to the tibia, resulting in abnormal motion. While posterior cruciate-substituting total knee prosthesis can correct severe deformity of the knee, and keep better balance between flexion and extension of the knee joint, but there is a potential complication of patellar clunk syndrome. Therefore, under the same conditions, the younger patients may prefer to chose posterior cruciate-retaining total knee prosthesis, while elder patients may prefer to chose posterior cruciate-substituting total knee prosthesis.

Objective To investigate the clinical outcomes of total hip arthroplasty in treatment of severe acetabular protrusion secondary to rheumatoid arthritis.Methods From January 2011 to November 2014,eighteen patients (20 hips) with severe acetabular protrusion secondary to rheumatoid arthritis were treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA),including 6 males (6 hips) and 12 females (14 hips).The age ranged from 37 to 68 years (average,45.8±8.3 year).According to the classification of Sotelo-Garza and Charnley,there were 15 cases (17 hips) of type Ⅱ (acetabular protrusion 6-15 mm) and 3 cases (3 hips) of type Ⅲ (acetabular protrusion > 15 mm).During the surgery,the femoral heads were moved out through retrograde method after the osteotomy of femoral neck by posterolateral approach.All patients underwent THA with autogenous bone graft by impacting technique for reconstruction of acetabula,and the cementless cups were planted with press-fit skills (Tantalum trabecular metal cup in 16 cases and Titanium porous coating cup in 4 cases).The hip function was evaluated by using Harris hip score.Radiographic measurement was performed with X-ray films to assess the restoration of the hip rotation center,graft incorporation and sign of prostheses loosening in follow-up duration.Results The mean operation duration and intraoperative blood loss were 89.5±8.1 min (range 55-131 min) and 295±10.9 ml (range 165-480 ml) respectively.The average amount of bone graft was 33.7±6.8 cm3 (range 32.5-61.2 cm3) in reconstruction of protrusion acetabulum.The mean follow up duration was 4.5± 1.7 years (range 2.5-6.0 years).The horizontal distance between the center of femoral head and the Kohler's line was increased from preoperative 8.87±3.9 mm (range-11.11-12.78 mm) to 23.55 ± 2.5 mm (range 21.23-25.57 mm) postoperatively,and the vertical distance between the center of femoral head and the line joining the bilateral ischial tuberosities was decreased from preoperative 87.45 ± 3.5 mm (range 74.75-96.97 mm) to postoperative 77.83±4.1 mm (range 68.22-90.40 mm) with statistically significant difference.The bone incorporation was achieved at 6 months postoperatively in radiological film.No loosening of acetabular components was found in final fellow-up.At last follow-up,Harris hip score was significantly improved from 55.3±9.5 points preoperatively to 92.2±12.7 postoperatively (t=51.569,P=0.000).The range of flexion of the hip significantly improved from 41.5°±6.7° preoperatively to 102.3°±14.5° at finial follow-up (t=64.865,P=0.000),and the range of extension of the hip improved from 8.2°±3.5° preoperatively to 29.8°±6.6° at finial follow-up (t=51.161,P=0.000).The discrepancy was significantly decreased from 23.7±0.82 mm preoperatively to 4.7±0.39 mm postoperatively (t=19.761,P=0.000).Mild thigh pain was reported in two hips,which typically occurred only with prolonged activity without disabling and not requiring medication.Conclusion Total hip arthroplasty with impaction bone grafting and cementless modular cup can recover the acetabular center of rotation and achieve satisfactory short-term outcomes in treating patients severe protrusion acetabula secondary to rheumatoid arthritis.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the clinical value of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with abdominal lifting and compression on patients with breathing and cardiac arrest induced by severe chest trauma.Methods Sixty-six breathing and cardiac arrest patients induced by severe chest trauma admitted to the General Hospital of Jingyuan Coal Industry Group Company from October 2011 to October 2016 were enrolled,and they were divided into abdominal lifting and compression group (n =32) and unarmed abdominal compression group (n =34) by random number table.The patients in both two groups were given the airway open,respiration support,defibrillation treatment,venous access establishment,vasoactive drugs application and other conventional treatments.On the basis of the routine treatment,the patients in abdominal lifting and compression group were given application of abdominal lifting and compression device with 100 times/min frequency and continuously alternating press down to lift the abdomen,the amplitude of pressing and pulling were 3-5 cm below or above the original level of the abdomen.Those in unarmed abdominal compression group were given abdominal CPR pressing method by hand,the frequency of pressing and depth of subsidence was the same as abdominal lifting and compression group.Heart rate (HR) and arterial blood gas at 30 minutes after CPR as well as the success rate of resuscitation were compared between the two groups.The changes in HR,mean arterial pressure (MAP) and pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) before and 30 minutes and 60 minutes after CPR were dynamically observed in patients with restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after abdominal lifting and compression CPR treatment.Results Compared with the unarmed abdominal compression group,HR (bmp:136.13±6.14 vs.148.45±5.16) and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide [PaCO2 (mmHg,1 mmHg =0.133 kPa):48.51 ±2.60 vs.62.51 ±2.50] at 30 minutes after CPR in abdominal lifting and compression group were significantly lowered,and arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) was significantly increased (mmHg:88.07±3.92 vs.74.12±2.12,all P < 0.05).Four patients with ROSC were found in abdominal lifting and compression group,and 2 in unarmed abdominal compression group.The success rate of resuscitation in abdominal lifting and compression group was significantly higher than that of unarmed abdominal compression group (12.50% vs.5.82%,P < 0.05).In 4 patients with ROSC after abdominal lifting and compression CPR showed a downward trend in HR and an upward trend in MAP and SpO2 with CPR time prolongation.Conclusions The effect of abdominal lifting and compression CPR is better than that of unarmed abdominal compression CPR,which is of great value for the life saving of patients with breathing and cardiac arrest induced bv severe chest trauma.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the feasibility and therapeutic effects of total hip replacement (THR) for intertrochanteric fractures combined with late necrosis of the femoral head.Methods From June 2010 to October 2015,8 patients underwent THR for intertrochanteric fractures combined with necrosis of the femoral head.They were 6 males and 2 females,with an average age of 53.5 years(from 45 to 67 years).According to the Evans-Jensen classification,2 fractures were type ⅠB,5 type ⅡA and one type ⅡB.All the 8 fractures were complicated with late femoral head necrosis,5 cases of which were ischemic.According to the Ficat classification,the ischemic necrosis was type Ⅲ in one and type Ⅳ in 5 cases.In the other 3 cases,the necrosis secondary to the hip osteoarthrosis was type Ⅲ according to the Tonnis classification.The necrotic femoral head was removed after osteotomy of the femoral neck via the posterolateral approach;after reduction of the femoral calcar,the intertrochanteric fracture was reduced and fixated in a press-fit manner through antegrade implantation of a biological stem prosthesis.Functional assessment of the affected hip was carried out at the final follow-up using Harris scoring.Results The 8 patients were followed up for an average of 25.5 months (from 12 to 45 months).After operation,biological press-fit and initial stability of the femoral stem were achieved in all the patients.The X-ray films showed bone ingrowth fixation in all the 8 hips at 3 months postoperatively.The Harris hip scores at the final follow-up averaged 92.3(from 89 to 98).The patients showed fine subjective satisfaction.Follow-ups revealed no infection,prosthetic failure,osteolysis,dislocation or articular instability.Conclusion In treatment of intertrochanteric fractures combined with necrosis of the femoral head,THR can lead to fixation and reduction of the intertrochanteric fracture and replacement of the necrotic femoral head at one stage,promoting functional recovery of the affected hip.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the technique and clinical results of total hip arthroplasty in treating post-traumatic hip fusion ankylosis secondary to operation in acetabular combined with femoral head fracture.Methods From October 2009 to January 2015,7 patients (7 hips) with post-traumatic hip fusion ankylosis underwent total hip arthroplasty.There were 6 males and 1 female with an average age of 38 years (range,25-51 years).There were 4 hips on the left side,3 hips on the right side.Open reduction and internal fixation were performed on all patients.One patient had a postoperative deep infection and 6 patients underwent implant removal.The hip bony fusion ankylosis was developed secondary to post-traumatic arthritis after the surgery of ipsilateral acetabular combined with femoral head facture.The interval between internal fixation and total hip arthroplasty was 37.6 months on average (range,21-67 months).The hip bony fusion ankylosis was relieved by wedge shape osteotomy at femoral neck level.The cemenfless prostheses were implanted in suitable places based on the accuracy position of acetabular center.One infection case was treated via surgical debridement,removal of all the screws,and antibiotic-loaded cement spacer implantation in the first stage.The cementless prostheses were implanted in the second stage.Results The average operation time and blood loss was 108 min (90-150 min) and 320 ml (280-450 ml) respectively.The internal fixation devices were explanted completely,including plate and screw in 5 cases,only screw in 1 case,intramedullary nail and screw in 1 case.The mean fallow-up period was 32.5 months (range,15-48 months).The average Harris hip score improved from 48.8±6.5 points preoperatively to 92.6±5.1 points post-operatively (t=22.82,P=0.001).Osseointegration was developed in all of the acetabular and femoral components at 3 months post-operatively.Radiograph analysis showed satisfied position of acetabular cup and no evidence of implant migration or center of rotation change.Stem subsidence (<1.0 mm) occurred in 2 cases and heterotopic ossification in 2 cases (Brooker type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ in 1 case,respectively) at one year postoperatively.No complication occurred,such as damages of vessels and nerve,dislocation,component loosening or infection.Conclusion The wedge shape osteotomy of femoral neck is a safe and reliable method in treating hip fusion ankylosis.Total hip arthroplasty can be achieved by reconstruction of acetabular center,suitable components implanted in anatomical position and ideal reconstruction of soft tissue around hip.
RESUMO
To observe the influence of matrix metalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), CD47, L-selectin and advanced oxidation proteinproducts (AOPP) in osteoarthritis and the intervention of curcumin.A total of 20 male C57BL/6 mice (10.05-15.00 g) were randomly divided into control group, OA group, Cur25 group and Cur50 group (intraperitoneal injected 25 μmol/L or 50 μmol/L of curcumin everyday after modeling). After 4 weeks treatment, we observed the morphological changes of the gross specimen by immunohistochemical method, and observed the ultrastructure of cartilage tissue under electron microscope. The expression of MMP-2, MCP-1 and CD47 were detected by western blotting, and L-selectin and AOPP were detected by ELISA and spectrophotometer, respectively.In the cartilage tissue morphology, the chondrocytes of OA group showed obvious change, while Cur25 and Cur50 groups maintained the good cartilage cell membrane intact. Compared with control group, the expressions of MMP-2, MCP-1, L-selectin and AOPP in OA group, Cur25 group and Cur50 group were increased (all<0.05), while CD47 levels were decreased (all<0.05). Compared with OA group, the expressions of MMP-2, MCP-1, L-selectin and AOPP in Cur25 group and Cur50 group were decreased (all<0.05), while CD47 levels were increased (all<0.05), and such changes were more significant in Cur50 group (all<0.05).The MMP-2, MCP-1, CD47, L-selectin and AOPP are closely associated with the pathology course of OA. Curcumin has protection effect on cartilage, which can relieve joint cartilage degeneration, reduce cartilage inflammation and increase the metabolic activity of chondrocytes.

To investigate the effect of diosgenin (Dgn) on chondrocytes and its relation to JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in mice with osteoarthritis (OA).Fifteen male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into three groups:control group, OA group and OA+Dgn group. After 4 weeks of treatment, the histopathological changes of cartilage tissue were observed by toluidine blue staining under light microscopy and the ultrastructure of chondrocytes was observed under electron microscopy. The primarily cultured chondrocytes of OA mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:(1) OA group, (2) Dgn group, (3) Dgn+AG490 group, (4) AG490 group. The expression of p-JAK2, p-STAT3, Bax, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and cytochrome c oxidase (COX) were detected by Western blotting, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) was detected using colorimetric method.The morphological observation showed that the chondrocytes of OA group presented considerable pathological changes, while the chondrocytes in OA+Dgn group maintained intact membrane. Electron microscopy observation found obvious injury in cartilage tissues of OA group, while that in OA+Dgn group remained smooth. Compared with OA group, the expressions of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 in chondrocytes of Dgn group were increased (all<0.05), and the expressions of Bax protein, SDH, COX and SOD were decreased (all<0.05). While compared with Dgn group, the expressions of p-JAK2, p-STAT3, SDH, COX and SOD in chondrocytes of Dgn+AG490 group were decreased (all<0.05), and the expression of Bax protein was increased (<0.05).Diosgenin can inhibit apoptosis and increase mitochondrial oxidative stress capacity of chondrocytes in mice with osteoarthritis, which is closely related to the activation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

To evaluate the effect of laser solid forming (LSF) of porous titanium on receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)/osteoprorotegerin (OPG) expression and osteoblast cells growth. Methods: The DMEM and sterile saline were used for porous titanium extract. The osteoblast cells were cultured in the extract while equal amount of DMEM and sterile saline were added to the control group. The growth of the cells were observed under an inverted phase contrast microscope. MTT was used to detect the growth inhibitory rates. The adhesion capacity of osteoblasts were measured. The growth in the material surface was examined by the electron microscope, and the expressions of RANKL and OPG were determined by Westen blot. Results: At the first day, the osteoblast proliferation rate was significantly different (P0.05); at each time point, the osteoblast proliferation rate were significantly different between the two groups (P0.05). The laser solid forming of porous titanium showed well bone compatibility. Conclusion: The porous titanium did not affect osteoblast proliferation due to its well bone compatibility. It did not affect the OPG/RANKL/RANK-axis system of bone metabolism, exibiting a wide applicable prospect for tissue engineering.
