Objective To investigate the clinical results in the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) with one stage open reduction and Salter or Dega osteotomy for “walking age”children .Methods We retrospectively reviewed 16 patients(16 hips)with unilateral hip dislocation who had undergone one‐stage open reduction and Salter or Dega innominate osteotomy in the the“walking age”children .the results were evaluated clinically by McKay′s classification and radiologically by the modified Severin′s classification .Early signs of osteonecrosis were identified by neck widening ,epiphysis fragmentation ,and presence of a metaphyseal growth disturbance line in the first year after the operation .Results After a follow‐up of one year on average ,good clinical and ra‐diographic results were noted in 87 .5% and 81 .25% of the patients ,respectively .Osteonecrosis occurred in 3 hips(18 .75% ) .Con‐clusion One‐stage open reduction and Salter or Dega osteotomy is an effective treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip in walking age .

In order to study the relationship between Staphylococcal nuclease(SNase) and diabetes mellitus,genetic engineering bacteria E.coli BL21/pET28a-His-SNase was constructed,the expression of soluble extracellular protein SNase was induced and the a preliminary research was made on it.An expression vector pET28a-His-SNase plasmid containing the His-SNase gene was constructed and transformed into E.coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells.The protein was induced by lactose and purified by ultrasound destruction and Ni-affinity chromatography,respectively.It was then analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot.The enzymatic properties for SNase has been preliminary studied as well.Results indicated that the purity of the correctly expressed fusion protein HisSNase was over 85％.SNase showed good activity within a wide range of pH and good heat resistance.This experiment might be a foundation work for the further study on the relationship between SNase and with diabetes.
