Objective To explore the lower limbs joints movement of patients with unilateral and primary artificial hip replacement in convalescence. Methods 100 cases of patients with unilateral and primary artificial hip replacement in convalescence were chosen as the ob-servation group,while 100 cases of matched healthy subjects were included as the control groups. The three-dimensional kinematics and mo-tion of lower extremities were monitored. Results The difference in operated knee flexion,operated ankle planter flexion and operated hip flexion of the observation group and the observation group were statistically significant(P<0. 05). The difference in the joint angle peak of hip backward extension of sagittal section,hip adduction of frontal plane,knee adduction of frontal plane,ankle adduction and outreach of frontal plane,hip internal rotation and extorsion of horizontal plane,ankle rotation and extorsion of horizontal plane in two groups were statisti-cally significant(P<0. 05). Conclusion There are abnormal prosthetic joint movement,limited range of operated movement in patients with unilateral and primary artificial hip replacement in convalescence,and coterminous kinematic chains appear compensatory changes,it should strengthen the muscle exercises of operated hip.

Inhibitory cells derived from bone marrow are a kind of inhibitory cells derived from bone marrow.These cells are not only related to tumor growth,but also participate in the inflammatory immune process.Therefore,we established a rat model of chronic osteomyelitis,and used gemcitabine to inhibit the cell growth ratio of MDSCs.We detected the ratio of MDSCs in bone marrow and spleen of rats by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence,detected the changes of inflammatory factors in peripheral blood by ELISA,and analyzed the inflammatory factors(TNF-α,PCT,IL-4,IL-10,IL-11)in peripheral blood of normal rats,osteomyelitis rats and rats after gemcitabine inhibition.The results showed that the proportion of MDSCs cells in bone marrow and spleen of osteomyelitis model rats was increased,but it was significantly decreased in gemcitabine group(P<0.05).Levels of inflammatory factors(TNF-α,PCT,IL-4,IL-10,IL-17,IFN-γ,TGF-β)were positively correlated with the change of MDSCs cell proportion(P<0.05).From the results,it can be inferred that the change of the proportion of MDSCs cells in rat osteomyelitis is positively related to the inflammatory factors,and gemcitabine can reduce inflammatory factors by inhibiting MDSCs.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of cinobufagin tablets combined with thalidomide/dexamethasone (TD) regimen in the treatment of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) with phlegm and stasis obstruction. MethodsThe clinical data of 50 patients with NDMM of phlegm and stasis obstruction who were hospitalized at the Jiangsu Province Hospital of Chinese Medicine from June 1st, 2015 to July 31th, 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into a control group (bortezomib/dexamethasone-containing regimen, 27 cases) and an observation group (cinobufagin tablets combined with TD regimen, 23 cases). The clinical efficacy and safety were compared between the two groups after two or three courses of treatment. The primary outcomes were clinical remission rate including overall response rate and deep remission rate, one-year and two-year overall survival rate, and adverse effects. The secondary outcomes were the proportion of plasma cells in bone marrow, hemoglobin, β2-microglobulin, lactate dehydrogenase, serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, bone pain score, and KPS functional status score (KPS score) before and after treatment. ResultsIn terms of clinical efficacy, there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) in the overall response rate [the observation group 69.57%(16/23) vs the control group 70.37% (19/27)] and deep remission rate [the observation group 56.52% (13/23) vs the control group 55.56% (15/27)] between groups after the treatment. The one-year overall survival rates of the observation group and the control group were 90.9% and 92.4%, and the two-year overall survival rates were 81.8% and 80.9% respectively, with no statistically significant differences between groups (P>0.05). During the treatment, no renal function injury occurred in both groups. The incidence of peripheral nerve injury in the observation group was 8.70%, which was lower than 48.15% in the control group (P<0.01). After the treatment, the proportion of myeloma plasma cells, β2-microglobulin, serum creatinine level, and bone pain score decreased, while the hemoglobin level and KPS score increased in both groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared between groups after treatment, the bone pain score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, while the KPS score was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionThe clinical efficacy of cinobufagin tablets combined with TD in the treatment of NDMM is equivalent to bortezomib/dexamethasone-containing regimen, but the former is more helpful in relieving the pain and improving the quality of life, and has better safety.
