Objective To assess the functional restoration in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who underwent hip resurfacing arthroplasty and to determine whether greater abduction angle of the acetabular component is relat?ed to larger diameter of femoral head component. Methods We reviewed 34 DDH cases (9 hips of 8 males and 25 hips of 24 fe?males, mean age 44.6±11.85 years at the time of surgery) on whom we performed hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) from October 2006 to September 2009. The total hip Arthroplasty (THA) group was consisted of 35 DDH cases (8 hips of 8 males and 27 hips of 25 females, mean age 43.7±10.4 years at the time of surgery). All operations were performed by the same doctor over the same peri?od. Assessment of the functional hip scores was conducted by Harris Hip Scores. A radiographic study was also performed to evalu?ate the implants stability and abduction angle of the acetabular components. All the data was analyzed with Kolmogorov?Smirnov method. Results The mean follow?up was 6.2 years in the HRA group. The Harris Hip Score improved from 54.9±13.2 to 97.3± 6.2 after the surgery. The mean abduction angle of the acetabular component was 51.6° ± 5.33°, hip flexion was 127° ± 6.9° and mean diameter of femoral head was 46.5±1.5 mm. The mean follow?up was 5.9 years in the THA group. The Harris Hip Score im?proved from 51.6±19.7 to 95.6±7.9 after the surgery. The mean abduction angle of the acetabular component was 43.9°±4.90°, hip flexion was 117°±4.2°. There was no failure of the prosthesis, peri?prosthetic fracture and infection in either group. There was sig?nificant difference in the abduction angle of the acetabular component (P<0.05) and flexion of the hip between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Patients in the HRA group had a better functional restoration and larger range of motion. Furthermore, a larger diameter of femoral head component could be achieved by placing the acetabular component in a greater abduction angle, which may contribute to a better long?term stability.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the clinical effect of blood flow restriction training on rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction to provide a reference for clinical practice. METHODS:Databases including CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,Web of Science and EBSCO were searched to collect randomized controlled trials of blood flow restriction training in the intervention of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction from inception to August 10,2022.Outcomes included knee muscle strength,knee muscle mass,and knee function evaluation,all of which were continuous variables.Two reviewers independently screened the literature and extracted data.Cochrane bias risk assessment tool and Physiotherapy Evidence Database Scale were used to evaluate the bias risk of the included articles.Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS:A total of 9 publications were included,including 226 subjects,114 in the trial group and 112 in the control group.Meta-analysis results showed that compared with conventional resistance training,the blood flow restriction training group could significantly improve knee muscle strength[SMD=0.54,95%CI(0.29,0.79),P<0.01],muscle mass[SMD=0.26,95%CI(0.06,0.46),P=0.01]and knee joint function[SMD=1.17,95%CI(0.53,1.80),P<0.01].Subgroup analysis showed that only when the intervention time was more than 4 weeks,there were significant improvements in knee joint muscle strength[SMD=0.68,95%CI(0.38,0.97),P<0.01]and muscle mass[SMD=0.38,95%CI(0.09,0.68),P=0.01]. CONCLUSION:Current evidence shows that blood flow restriction training can improve muscle strength and knee function in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and reduce muscle atrophy.It is recommended that the postoperative intervention time should be more than 4 weeks to achieve better muscle strength and muscle mass improvement.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of different drying conditions on the appearance and intrinsic quality indicators of Pinelliae Rhizoma for screening suitable drying conditions, so as to provide reference for its standardized production and quality evaluation. MethodsDifferent dried samples of Pinelliae Rhizoma were prepared by lime-assisted sweating method and intermittent drying method. Visual analysis was employed to measure the color brightness values(L*) of the surface, cross-section and powder of the samples, texture analyzer was used to determine the hardness of the samples under different drying conditions. The total starch content was calculated by measuring the contents of amylose and amylopectin in the samples with ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. High performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was used to determine the contents of seven nucleoside components(uracil, hypoxanthine, uridine, inosine, guanosine, β-thymidine and adenosine) in the samples. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to explore the correlation between the external characteristics and intrinsic indicators of the different dried samples. Principal component analysis(PCA) was used to comprehensively rank the data of various indicators, and partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA) was used to screen differential components with variable importance in the projection(VIP) value>1. Furthermore, the difference between the optimal drying condition for Pinelliae Rhizoma and the traditional sun-drying method was explored by independent samples t-test. ResultsWith the increase of temperature, the color of the intermittently dried samples gradually deepened, while their hardness gradually decreased. Concurrently, the contents of extract, total starch, uridine and adenosine exhibited an upward trend, whereas the contents of uracil, hypoxanthine and inosine displayed a downward trajectory. Compared with the intermittent drying group, the content of extract in the samples subjected to lime-assisted sweating increased. With the increase of lime dose, the hardness and the total content of nucleoside components in the samples showed a downward trend, while the total starch content showed an upward trend. Correlation analysis showed that the comprehensive score of L* was negatively correlated with the contents of uracil, hypoxanthine and inosine, and positively correlated with the contents of uridine, guanosine and adenosine. Hardness was negatively correlated with adenosine content, and positively correlated with the contents of inosine, uracil and hypoxanthine. Through comprehensive consideration and comprehensive score of principal components, the method of 5% lime-mixed sweating for 6 days emerged as the top-ranking approach. Except for the extract, the results of independent samples t-test showed that there was no significant difference between the 5% lime-mixed sweating for 6 days and the traditional sun-drying in terms of other content indicators. ConclusionThe whiteness and firmness of Pinelliae Rhizoma exhibit significant correlations with its chemical composition, while uridine, uracil, guanosine, adenosine and inosine are the key constituents responsible for the quality difference of Pinelliae Rhizoma under different drying conditions. The lime-assisted sweating method optimized in this study can be proposed as a viable alternative to the traditional sun-drying method. This method not only ensures the quality of the medicinal material but also effectively reduces the drying time and prevents mold contamination, which provides a valuable reference for the standardization of drying conditions and the establishment of quality evaluation criteria for Pinelliae Rhizoma.
