[Objective]To study the mid-term outcomes about cementless total hip arthroplasty in the treatment of patients with alcoholic osteonecrosis of the femoral head.[Method]From March 1997 to June 2002,41patients(47 hips) was treatmented by cementless total hip arthroplasty,the mid-term (equal to or more than 5 years) results were evaluated both clinically and radiographically.Clinical outcomes were evaluated according to Harris evaluation score. Components migration,bone changes around the implant were measured radiologically. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the surviving rate of the femoral and acetabulum components. End point was radiographical loosening or revision of the acetabular and femoral component for any reason.[Result]Forty-seven hips in 41 patients were followed up at least 5 years. The mean Harris hip score increased from preoperation(42.4?6.4)points to (91.8?4.4) points at the time of final follow up. No component was loose,No component was revised. The focal area of pelvic osteolysis in 2 hips and small focal area of femoral osteolysis in 6 hips were found. The surviving rate of the femoral and acetabulum components,was 1.0(95% confidence interval,0.98 to 1.00).[Conclusion]The mid-term outcomes about cementless total hip arthroplasty in the treatment of patients with alcoholic necrosis of femoral head had been satisfactory. Because the wear of component,osteolysis can not be avoided,clinical and radiographical follow-up for cementless total hip arthroplasty must be carried out persistently.

Objective To study the methods treating talar neck fractures. Methods From Oc-tober 1988 to June 2004, 66 patients with talar neck fractures were treated with different methods. Accord-ing to modified Hawkins classification, there were 14 patients with type Ⅰ fractures treated with plaster exter-nal fixation, 34 with type Ⅱ treated with manipulative reduction plus plaster external fixation, 16 with type Ⅲ treated with open reduction and internal fixation or joint fusion and 2 with type Ⅳ treated with open re-duction and internal fixation or joint fusion. There were four patients with old fractures. Results All pa-tients were followed up for mean 6.28 years and clinical outcomes evaluated according to Hawkins scoring system, which showed that 19 patients (29%) were graded excellent (including 13 type Ⅰ fractures, 5 type Ⅰ and 1 type Ⅲ), 17 good (including 1 type Ⅰ fracture, 12 type Ⅱ and 4 type Ⅲ), 18 fair (including 11 type Ⅱ fractures, 6 type Ⅲ and 1 type Ⅳ) and 12 poor (including 6 type Ⅱ, 5 type Ⅲ and 1 type Ⅳ). There occurred osteonecresis in 25 patients (38%), traumatic arthritis of ankle joint in 20 (30%) and that of subtalar joint in 26 (39%). Conclusions For type Ⅰ and Ⅱ fractures, plaster external fixation should be the choice of treatment. While open reduction and internal fixation should be done for type Ⅲ talar neck fractures and joint fusion for type Ⅳ and old fractures.

Objective To investigate the role of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), Smad2/3 and Smad7 expressions in carotid artery remodeling in renovascular hypertensive rats, and also the therapeutic effect of Enalapril and Amlodipine. Methods The renovascular hypertensive rat (RHR) models with two-kidney and one-clip were established, including model group (n = 6), sham-operated group (n = 6), Enalapril group (10 mg/kg per day, n = 6), Amlodipine group (5 mg/kg per day, n = 6) and combination group (Amlodipine 2.5 mg/kg per day + Enalapril 5mg/kg per day, n = 6). The medication were continuous administrated for six weeks. Carotid artery morphological and structural changes in the media were observed by HE staining, Masson staining and immuno histochemical staining. Media thickness (MT), MT and lumen diameter ratio (MT/LD), and the expression levels of media α-smooth muscle actin (α-actin), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), TGF-β1, phosphorylated Smad2/3 (p-Smad2/3) and Smad7 in carotid arteries were measured. Results The media of carotid arteries in RHR model group was significantly thickened, the volume of smooth muscle cell was increased, and the array was in disorder; MT, MT/LD, the proliferation index of smooth muscle cell and collagen fiber area percentage of carotid arteries in the model group were significantly higher than those in the sham-operated group (P < 0.01). Compared to sham-operated group, the model group had significantly higher expressions of TGF-β1 and p-Smad2/3 (P < 0.05) and lower Smad7 expression. Both Enalapril and Amlodipine improved smooth muscle hypertrophy and collagen deposition, reduced RHR carotid MT, MT/LD, proliferation index of smooth muscle cell, collagen fiber area percentage and the expressions of TGF-β1 and p-Smad2/3 (P < 0.05), increased Smad7 expression (P < 0.05). Moreover, the combination treatment of Enalapril and Amlodipine had significantly better effects than single Amlodipine group (P < 0.05), but not single Enalapril group. Conclusions TGF-β1/Smads pathway may participate in the mechanism of carotid artery remodeling in RHR; the role of Amlodipine and Enalapril in inversing carotid artery remodeling may be related to the change of TGF-β1/Smads pathway, the combination treatment of Amlodipine and Enalapril had better effects than single administration of Amlodipine.

Abstract: Objective To genotype and analyze whole genomic features of Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) isolated in Tianjin, to improve evolution information of CVB3 virus in Tianjin, and to provide basis for surveillance and early warning of related diseases. Methods Viral RNA was extracted from five CVB3 strains isolated in Tianjin, whole genome sequence of the virus was amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced by next-generation sequencing method, and phylogenetic and recombinant analysis were carried out. Results The open reading frame 1(ORF) of the five CVB3 strains contained 6 555 nucleotides and encoded 2 185 amino acids, and ORF2 was composed of sequences encoding 68 amino acids. The nucleotide sequence similarity ranged from 78.3%-100%, and the amino acid sequence similarity ranged from 95.7%-100%. Compared with the CVB3 prototype strain, the nucleotide sequence similarity of the five viruses was between 78.2%-79.1%, and the similarity of amino acid sequences was 94.9%-95.3%. All five viruses exhibited a T151A mutation on the VP2 protein. Additionally, the encephalitis isolate showed a K158E mutation on the VP2 protein, while one of the sewage isolates had a C234T mutation in 5' noncoding region. The five strains belonged to two different genotypes, among which the encephalitis isolate in 2016 belonged to the D genotype, while the sewage isolates in 2021 belonged to the E genotype. This is also the first report of E genotype CVB3 in northern China. The CVB3 strain may have recombinant events in non-structural protein regions, in which encephalitis isolate may recombine with a Coxsackievirus B5 (CVB5) strain, while sewage isolates may have recombinant events with a strain of ECHO virus 18 (E18). Conclusions The CVB3 isolates in Tianjin belong to D and E genotypes, and recombination events may exist in non-structural protein region of the viral genome. The results of CVB3 virus genome analysis in sewage suggests presence of CVB3 infection in the population of Tianjin, and its epidemic dominant genotype may have changed.
