Objective To detect the expression level of CXCL9 and IL‐22 in peripheral blood of patients with vitiligo vulgaris and explore its role in the pathogenesis of vitiligo vulgaris .Methods The level of CXCL9 and IL‐22 in peripheral blood from 35 vit‐iligo patients (20 active cases and 15 stable cases) and 20 normal controls were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay . Then ,we compared the differences in different groups and analyzed their correlation with ages ,duration ,psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) .Results The contents of CXCL9 and IL‐22 in active cases and stable cases were obviously higher than those in con‐trols respectively by statistical analysis ,there was significant difference (P< 0 .05) .The contents of CXCL9 and IL‐22 in active ca‐ses were obvious higher than those in stable cases ,there was significant difference(P< 0 .05) .Conclusion CXCL9 and IL‐22 may be involved in the pathogenesis of vitiligo vulgaris .

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of CXCL 9 in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ) . Methods The level of CXCL9 in peripheral blood from 20 patients with SLE and 20 normal controls were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay .Compare the difference of the expression level of CXCL 9 in peripheral blood between two groups and analyzed their correlation with ages ,duration ,SLE diseases activity index (SLEDAI) .Results The level of CXCL9 in peripheral blood in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus was (1 549 .14 ± 362 .74)pg/L ,but in normal controls was(602 .54 ± 83 .70)pg/L .The level of CXCL9 in peripheral blood in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus was obviously higher than that in controls by statistical analysis ,there was significant difference between the two groups (P<0 .01) .The expression level of CXCL9 in pe‐ripheral blood of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus was positively correlated with SLEDAI (r=0 .892 ,P<0 .01) .Conclu‐sion CXCL9 may be involved in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus .

Objective To discuss biomechanical mechanism of reconstructed joint capsule ligament stabilizing hip joint by means of three-dimensional finite element analysis.Methods A finite element model of total hip arthroplasty(THA)including ischiofemoral ligament reconstruction was construtted by using finite element analysis software Unigraphics NX 2.0 and SolidWorks 2006 to simulate seated leg crossing and obtain peak resisting moment and range of motion prior to impingement.Results The current form of finite element model was characterized by large deformation multi-body contact,large interfacial sliding and high elasticity and could clearly reflect real anatomy and biomechanical behavior of ischiofemoral ligaments.Compared with model with only metal,model of ischiofemoral ligament reconstruction could reduce the peak polyethylene stress at the impingement site and at the head egress site by typically 17%and 31%respectively,increase peak resisting moment by nearly 57%and provide 2.29-fold stability.Conclusions As a discrete structure within the posterior capsule of the hip joint,the ischiofemoral ligament may be the most important contributor to the mechanical integrity of the posterior stability structure.The joint capsule ligament must be reconstructed in hip arthroplasty.
