Refractory nephrotic syndrome(RNS) is one of the main causes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in children,which is also a difficult issue in clinic.Several therapies,including immunosuppressive agents,have been shown to be effective and safe for RNS.It is proved,however,that a substantial number of children are still refractory to treatment despite these therapies.Recently,rituximab as a new immunosuppressant has achieved good results for RNS,and a number of case reports and clinical trials have suggested that rituximab may be effective for children with RNS.This review will analyse the scientific basis for the efficacy and safety of using rituximab in children with RNS.

Acute kidney injury (AKI)was a common problem in children in clinic.pRIFLE Criteria, AKIN Criteria, KDIGO Criteria are the main classification criteria of AKI.Though serum creatinine is still used as the most common biomarkers for diagnosis of AKI, the sensitivity and specificity is unsatisfactory.In recent years, many potential biomarkers of AKI have been studied in a variety of experimental and clinical settings.This review describes the novel biomarkers of AKI, including cystatin C, neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin, interleukin-18 ,kidney injury molecule-1 and liver-type fatty acid binding protein,, which have now made a progress in clinic.

Subclinical hypothyroidism is common in children,but its clinical significance is widely debated.The pathogenesis is not very clear and etiology appears to be multifactorial,such as autoimmune thyroiditis,obesity,antiepileptic drugs and so on.Currently there is no broad consensus on the management of children with subclinical hypothyroidism.In this review,the available evidences regarding to investigation,risk factors,trreatments and outcomes for this disease are summarized.

Objective To study the treatment influences on immunity and tumor recurrence of oral canc -er patients with the combination therapy of hyperbaric oxygen treatment and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy . Methods In the period from March 2011 to March 2014 ,84 patients were clearly diagnosed with oral cancer and randomly divided into hyperbaric oxygen treatment combined postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy group ( group A,n=42)and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy group (group B,n=42).From day 1 prior to the last day of chemotherapy ,patients in group A were treated with hyperbaric oxygen ,and patients in group B were just accepted chemotherapy.After chemotherapy,we tested the levels of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 +and NK cells by flow cytometry, and the expression of IL -2,IL-4,IL-10 and INF-γby ELISA essay.All patients had been followed for two years.Results The levels of CD4 +and NK cells in group A were higher than group B (P<0.05),but the levels of CD3 +and CD8 +between the two groups were obviously different (P>0.05).Compared with group B,the ratio of CD4 +and CD8 +was increased in group A(P<0.05).The levels of cytokines involved IL -2,IL-4,IL-10 and INF-γin group A were higher than the levels of group B ( P<0 .05 ) .Follow-up results showed that pa-tients treated with hyperbaric oxygen combined postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy had less recurrence in 2 years(P<0.05).Conclusion Hyperbaric oxygen combined postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy can improve the patients′immune function ,and to be effective in preventing two years′recurrence .

Diagnosis and management of hip injuries has advanced significantly in the past few years with the improvement of arthroscopic techniques of the hip. Many of pathologic conditions previously unrecognized and untreated have been diagnosed and treated correctly under hip arthroscopy . Current application for hip arthroscopy include management of labral tears,osteoplasty for femoroacetabular impingement, thermal capsulorrhaphy and capsular plication for subtle rotational instability and capsular laxity, lateral impact injury and chondral lesions, osteochondritis dissecans, ligamentum teres injuries, internal and external snapping hip, removal of loose bodies, synovial biopsy, subtotal synovectomy, synovial chondromatosis, infection, and certain cases of mild to moderate osteoarthritis with associated mechanical symptoms. In addition,patients with long-standing, unresolved hip joint pain may benefit from arthroscopy. Patients with reproducible symptoms and physical findings that reveal limited functioning, and who have failed an adequate trial of conservative treatment will have the greatest likelihood of success after arthroscopic intervention. Prescise attention to thorough physical examination, detailed imaging,and adherence to safe and reproducible surgical techniques are essential for the success of this procedure.

Two types of elbow arthroplasties are used in current clinial practice:interpositional and implant arthroplasty.Interposition elbow arthroplasty neither completely eliminates pain nor restores full function.It may be indicated for young active patients with severe inflammatory or posttraumatic arthritis,especially those with limited elbow motion.Current implant arthroplasty has come a long way in the past three decades.Elbow implant survival data nearly approach those of knee arthroplasty.The majority of patients have significant improvement in function and marked pain relief after total elbow replacement.However,the complication rate is higher than that for total hip and knee arthroplasty,is likely inherent in the anatomic uniqueness of the elbow itself.Greater caution must be paid to prevention of the complications of total elbow replacement.This article reviews the types,indications,contraindications and results of elbow arthroplasty.

[Objective]To evaluate the therapeutic effect of arthroscopic treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee,and explore the factors related to clinical outcome. [Methods]Three hundred and sixty-two patients with knee osteoarthritis were treated by arthroscopic surgery in the 88th hospital from May 2000 to November 2007. Of them,124 patients were followed-up completely. Quantified clinical data were input into computer and analyzed statistically by SPSS 16.0 software. Lysholm score was used to evaluate the therapeutic effect. Lysholm scores before surgery and at follow up were compared with paired t test. Patients were divided into different subgroups according to sex,locking,X -ray grade,arthroscopic grade and surgical methods. Lysholm scores at the final follow up of different subgroups were compared with variance analysis. The factors related to operation outcome were explored by using multiple stepwise linear regression analysis.[Results]One hundred and twenty-four patients were followed up from 7 to 96 months with an average of 39.6 months. Preoperative Lysholm score was (46.10?2.80),the score at follow up was (70.69+2.90),there was significant difference between preoperative score and at follow up (t=9.362,P0.05). The difference was significant between groups whether locking or not (F=10.654,P
