BACKGROUND: With the development of new materials and the improvement of prosthesis design, total knee arthroplasty(TKA), a commonly used surgery, has exhibited satisfying effect on the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthrosis. However, many problems still remain a headache to operation performers.OBJECTIVE: To discuss how to select the prosthesis for total knee replacement and to summarize the key factors that affect the curative effect.DESIGN: A controlled study of the effect before and after the operation.SETTING: Department of Orthopedics, First Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-six patients(24 males and 12 females) who received TKA in the Department of Orthopaedics, First Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University during February 2000 to September 2003 were included in this study.METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out. Thirty-six patients(48knees) underwent total knee replacement, and the knee joint function was evaluated with American John N Install scoring system. The post-operation effect was evaluated by comparing the scores of each diseased knee before and after the operation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The function of knees and the score of every knee before and after operation were evaluated.RESULTS: The mean score before operation was 39, but it was 85 after follow-up visit. Totally 95% of them were up to the standard. The pain was reduced after the operation. The flexion-extension function and mobility of the knee joints improved obviously.CONCLUSION: TKA with posterior stabilized prosthesis and resection of posterior cruciate ligament(PCL) improved the function of the diseased knees after the operation. And the operation was simple and without complications. The key factors that affect the curative effect include the mechanical balance of the soft tissues during the operation, perioperative anticoagulant treatment for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis(DVT) and postoperative rehabilitation training. Peripheral tissue of knee joints should be released adequately; otherwise, it may cause unstable joint or limitation of joint activity.

Objective To study the relationship between osteoporotic hip fracture (OHF) and polymorphism of cytochrome P450c19 genes. Methods By using a group correlation analysis, we made a case-control study of seven single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites groupinge and haplotype in 400 OHF patients from Shaanxi Guanzhong population and 400 normal samples as controls. Results A total of 700 samples were successfully genotyped. Correlation analysis identified three blocks and selected seven tag SNPs. According to the variance analysis, rs7167343, rs8031463, and polymorphism of haplotype 3 were associated with hip fracture. Conclusion Cytochrome P450c19 genes have association with the incidence of osteoporotic fracture in the Han population we studied from Shaanxi Guanzhong region. Therefore, cytochrome P450c19 genes may affect the incidence of osteoporotic hip fracture in the Han population from Guanzhong region, Shaanxi Province.

Objective To explore three-dimensional ultrasonographic features of common ocular diseases. Methods To acquire the data, the free-hand scanning without positioning system was employed in 3 to 5 seconds. Following or after acquisitions, the data were processed and 3D image was reconstructed. Then three-dimensional ultrasonographic features of ocular diseases were characterized. Results 3D images were rendered successfully on 46 eyes of 48 ones. The reconstruction of 3D ultrasonography provided clear stereo images in which shape, dimension, structure, location of retinal detachment, choroidal detachment, vitreous fibrous membrane, lens dislocation, intraocular foreign body and intraocular trauma could be clearly demonstrated. Conclusions 3D ultrasonography needs much shorter scanning time with good space visualization. In the diagnosis of ocular diseases 3D ultrasonic reconstruction can provide more useful information than traditional 2D ultrasonography.

Objective To quantify the white matter hyperintensity (WMH) with serial MRI in elderly people with cerebrovascular disease, and to evaluate the risk factors that may have impact on their progression.Methods One hundred and thirty-eight patients with cerebrovascular disease underwent twice MRI scans with a 1.5T MR scanner at least one year apart (mean = 13.8 months). The clinical data of all patients, including age, gender, systolic blood pressure, blood glucose level, serum lipid level, alcohol consumption and smoking were recorded at baseline, as well as the historical informations concerning hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolemia. Besides, the overall severity of cognitive impairment and neural deficit of patients were rated by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIH). MRI measures included volume of gray matter infarction, volume of white matter infarction, and baseline volume of WMH. The volumetric changes of WMH between the twice scans were assessed using a semi-automated software. The influence of risk factors on changes of WMH volume was analyzed. Correlation coefficients were calculated between clinical scales and the change of WMH volume. Results The Baseline WMH volume was(13155?18782) mm3, and the volumetric change of WMH was(7687?9079) mm3. Multiple regression analyses revealed that the occurrence of infarction in cortex and in white matter was significantly associated with the volumetric change of WMH, as well as the baseline WMH volume. The volumetric changes of WMH were related to MMSE and NIH score (r=-0.266,P=0.002; r=0.257,P=0.002). The total infarcted volumes were associated with the volumetric change of WMH (r=0.416,P

Objective To investigate the effect and the prognostic factors of radiofrequency ablation(RFA) for primary liver cancer(PLC).Methods RFA was performed in 195 patients with PLC,and the efficency was evaluated with univariate analysis.Cox′s regression analysis model was used to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis.Results In the whole group of patients,the 1,2,3 and 5-year overall survival rate was 80.5%,67.4%,49.1% and 32.7% respectively,and in the patients with small PLC(the size≤3 cm),the 1,2,3 and 5-year overall survival rate was 91.7%,81.2%,60.5% and 40.4% respectively.The Cox regression models indicated that the independent factors in determining the prognosis were: Liver function of Child-Pugh stage,tumor size and occlusion of hepatic inflow during RFA.Conclusions RFA is an effective mini-invasive treatment for patients with PLC,and especially for the patients with small PLC.The efficency of RFA for small PLC has the same outcome as that of surgical resection of the tumor.Liver function of Child-Pugh stage,tumor size and occlusion of hepatic inflow during RFA are the independent prognostic factors.

Objective To sum up the effect and experience in radiofrequency ablation(RFA) for liver cancer(LC). Methods The clinical data of 102 patients with LC treated by percutaneous and intraoperative RFA were analysed retrospectively. Results RFA was used to treat 195 tumors (median diameter 5.6 cm,ranging from 1.5 to 9.5 cm) in 102 patients.Of them, primary liver cancer was found in 80 patients( 78.4%),and metastatic liver tumor was in 22 patients(21.6%). Percutaneous RFA(PRFA) and intraoperative RFA(IRFA) was performed in 77 patients(75.5%) and 25 patients(24.5%) respectively. There was no severe complications after RFA in this series. All of the 102 cases had been followed up for 3～24months,AFP positive returned to negative in 70.3%(52/74)of the patients.The rate of concreted necrosis of liver cancer showed by CT was 88.2%(90/102). The 1 year survival rate was 93.8%.Conclusions RFA is a safe and effective treatment for patients with LC. Patients with small and readily accessible tumor are the indications of PRFA;while the patients with large,multiple,perivascular or otherwise inaccessible liver tumor are also the indications for IRFA.The adoption of the TACE and other methods to occlude the vascular inflow can improve the efficacy of RFA.

0.05). (2) In the total 12 rabbits, all the cornea grafts survived without rejection reaction, corneal haze or corneal neovascularization. The fresh grafts got transparent after 2 months, and the dehydrated grafts got transparent after 6 months. Histological study demonstrated both fresh and dehydrated stroma grafts had fused with rabbits'corneal stroma very well without lymphocytes infiltrating. (3) As shown in histological observations, the reconstructed cat corneal endothelial tissue was similar to the nature tissue. Cultured cat endothelial cells connected tightly to each other and attached to the Descemet's membrane closely. CONCLUSION: Swine corneal stroma has low immunogenicity and satisfying biocompatibility,it is an ideal biological carrier for cornea reconstruction in vitro.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of MRS in prostate cancer based on sextant localization. Methods There were 110 patients, 54 patients with pathologically confirmed prostate cancer and 56 patients confirmed non-prostate cancer proved by ultrasound guided systemic biopsy. The (choline + creatine)/citrate (CC/C) value in each voxel and ratio of positive voxel (PVR) in sextant localization were measured. The ROC analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of CC/C in single voxel and PVR in sextant localization. Results There are 1673 and 2426 voxel in prostate cancer and non-prostate cancer respectively. The median of CC/C in cancer sextants was 2. 137; the median of CC/C in noncancer sextants was 0. 600. The difference of these two groups was statistically significant (Z = -41.7, P < 0. 01 ). The diagnostic sensitivity was 81.4% ( 1362/1673 ), the specificity was 83.1% (2018/2426), and the accuracy was 82.4% [ (1362+2018)/4099] for prostatic cancer with the cutoff point 0. 911 of the CC/C value. The median of PVR in cancer sextants and noncancer sextants were 1 and 0 respectively, the difference of PVR was statistically significant (Z = -11.7,P < 0.01 ). The diagnostic sensitivity was 77. 5% (148/191), the specificity was 76. 9% (247/321), and the accuracy was 77. 1% [ ( 148 + 247 )/ 512] for prostatic cancer with the cutoff point 0. 519 of the PVR. Conclusion Detecting the cutoff point of the CC/C value in single voxel and the PVR in sextant localization may be valuable in the diagnosis of prostate cancer.
