Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an effective way to acute myeloid leukemia (AML).The therapy effect of allo-HSCT comes from the preconditioning of the radiation and/or chemotherapy,as well as the graft versus leukemia (GVL) effect of the donor' s immune system.In nearly a decade,with the deepening research on biological characteristics of leukemia cells,according to the cytogenetic and molecular markers to dangerous degree classification of AML,which enables us to pick out AML patients can benefit from allo-HSCT.The clinical curative effect of allo-HSCT for AML has obviously improved,and applicable scope has also extended,but there are some differences in the application of AML.The mechanism,opportunity,curative effects,donor selection and preconditioning of allo-HSCT for AML are discussed.

BACKGROUND:Studies suggested that blood loss was great during total knee arthroplasty, even blood transfusion was needed. Application of the tourniquet wil destroy the coagulation system, and is not conducive to hemostasis after replacement. Recently, tranexamic acid has been extensively used to reduce blood loss during total knee arthroplasty, because of low price, simple administration pathway, and effective effects on hemostasis. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the application and safety of tranexamic acid in total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:The first author retrieved PubMed and Chinese Journal Ful Text Database for articles from inception to October 2015. The key words were tranexamic acid, total knee arthroplasty, hemorrhage. More than 200 articles were retrieved, and finaly 50 articles met the inclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Tranexamic acid is a fibrinolytic inhibitor, can reversibly block the binding of plasminogen to fibrin, effectively inhibit fibrinolysis, and reduce hemorrhage after total knee arthroplasty. Nevertheless, there were significant differences in the use, dose and effect of tranexamic acid on hemostasis among different studies. Tranexamic acid was an effective drug for hemostasis during total knee arthroplasty. During total knee arthroplasty, tranexamic acid had been used to reduce dominant blood loss and hidden blood loss after arthroplasty, and could not increase the risk for venous thrombosis of lower limb. Currently, the timing of use, dosage, route of administration, and possible complications of tranexamic acid remain controversial.

BACKGROUND:Apart from a complete resection of tumor tissues, the therapeutic goal for bone tumors is to maximize the repair and restoration of tissue defects and damaged functions. Autologous inactivated bone graft is of practical value for transplantation and reconstruction.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of improved Malawer method combined with replantation of inactivated tumor segment in the treatment of proximal fibular tumors.
METHODS: Since 2007, five patients with proximal fibular tumors (six sides) were admitted in the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University. These five patients were subjected to distal femoral amputation, intralesional curettage and bone grafting, upper fibular osteotomy + tumor segment heating (boiling in 70℃ distiled water for 15 minutes) + inactivated bone replantation. Therapeutic effects were folowed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: One case of amputation had no recurrence and systemic metastasis during 4 years of folow-up; one case of intralesional curettage and bone grafting relapsed 1 year after operation; three cases of upper fibular osteotomy + tumor segment heating + inactivated bone replantation folowed for 5 months recovered walking function and exhibited good healing of the outer structure of the knee, showing non-healing of inactivated tumor segment, non-remarkable calus formation, no local tumor recurrence, no loosening of internal fixation, and inactivated bone without fracture and absorption. These results confirmed that the tumor curettage and amputation both have obvious limitations; based on Malawer method, the replantation of inactive tumor segment can better ensure the structure integrity of the lower leg and in suit reconstruct the lateral biceps femoris tendon and the lateral colateral ligament, but geneticaly the revascularization and healing of inactivated bones wil be difficult and slow with temperature increases, and therefore the period of postoperative brace protection should be relatively extended, alowing time delay of strenuous exercise and avoiding complications such as fractures.

BACKGROUND: There are more measurement data about knee joint at home and abroad, but few data about the northern China, especially Inner Mongolia region. Whether the posterior slope angle of tibial plateau in local area differs from that of Chinese or foreigners is rarely reported.OBJECTIVE: To measure the posterior slope angle of the medial tibial plateau in healthy Mongolia population, and to compare the differences of different measurement methods, so as to understand the anatomical characters of tibial plateau in Inner Mongolia region.METHODS: Sixty Mongolian volunteers were recruited, the 20 cm upper and under the knee joint were scanned bilaterally by GE64 row spiral CT, and the three-dimensional model of the knee was established on Mimics16.0 software, followed by processed through fairing, filling, separation and cutting. Afterwards, the angel between anterior cortical bone extension line of upper tibia (method A), tibia anatomical axis (method B), line perpendicular to the posterior cortical bone extension line of upper tibia (method C) and upper edge line of the tibial plateau was measured,respectively. The posterior slope angle of the medial tibial plateau (90°-measured angle) was obtained and compared.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The posterior slope angle of the medial tibial plateau measured by methods A, B and C was (11.16±3.39)°, (8.60±3.29)° and (5.30±4.40)°, respectively, and the former two were similar with those reported by Wang Ye-hua and Luo Ji-wei (P > 0.05). (2) There were significant differences in the posterior slope angle of the left and right medial tibial plateau among methods (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between left and right sides (P > 0.05). (3) There was no significant difference in the posterior slope angle of the left and right medial tibial plateau between genders (P > 0.05). (4) These results indicate that the Mongolian population show smaller posterior slope angle of the tibial plateau, but the angle exhibits great individual difference, thereafter, an individualize scheme should be developed before osteotomy.

Objective To study the incidence and prognosis of avascular necrosis after talus fracture. Methods A retrospective survey was performed in 12 patients ( 13 feet) with talus fractures admitted into hospital from July 2004 to November 2009 to analyze necrosis rate, ankle function recovery and disability rate. According to Hawkin' s classification system, there were two patients with type Ⅰ feet, four with type Ⅱ feet, five with type Ⅲ feet and two with type Ⅳ feet. Results All patients were followed up for average period of 19.6 months (range 11-52 months). Avascular necrosis was detected in eight feet, of which one foot was treated with ankle fusion, one with subtalar arthrodesis and one with bone implantation. The other five feet had good ankle and subtalar function, with no collapse or osteoarthritis. According to Maryland foot score, the result was excellent in eight patients, good in two, fair in one and failure in two, with excellence rate of 77%. Conclusion The incidence of avascular necrosis after talus fracture is related to the location and energy of trauma. However, the function prognosis of the talus shows no correlation with necrosis.

BACKGROUND: Whether the proximal tibial osteotomy in Mongolia populations has difference with other populations at home and abroad remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the anatomical characters of the proximal tibial osteotomy in Mongolia populations in the northern region of China by measuring the relevant linear parameters.METHODS: Thirty-eight healthy Mongolia populations were selected, and their bilateral knee joints were scanned by CT.The original data were exported in DICOM format. Mimics software was used to reconstruct the knee three-dimensional model. The tibial data stored in STL format were imported into 3-matic software, showing the medial surface of the tibia,and 6 mm below the medial tibial plateau maintaining 7° posterior slop was subjected to total hip arthroplasty osteotomy.Subsequently, the relevant parameters were measured.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The left tibia transverse diameter was (79.99±3.70) mm, and the right was (80.25±4.01) mm. The left anteroposterior diameter was (52.27±3.07) mm, and the right was (51.75±2.40) mm. The anteroposterior diameter of medial tibia was (55.40±2.00) mm (left), and (56.67±2.47) mm (right); the lateral was (49.84±2.78) mm (left), and (49.58±2.80) mm (right). (2) In Mongolian populations, the linear parameters showed no significant differences between two sides of the proximal tibial osteotomy (P > 0.05). The anteroposterior diameter of medial tibia was longer than that of lateral one (P > 0.05). The linear parameters of the proximal tibial osteotomy in male were significantly larger than those in female (P < 0.05). There were differences in the linear parameters of the proximal tibial osteotomy between Mongolian populations and other populations. (3)These results indicate that there are significant differences in the anatomical morphology of the tibial plateau between western and eastern countries.Besides, the geometric parameters of the tibial plateau may be different in different ethnic groups and regions. It is necessary to use the digital orthopedic technique to investigate and analyze the large sample data of different ethnic groups in different regions.

BACKGROUND:Cauda equina syndrome often induces skin hypoesthesia in the perineal area, poor urine-stool control, and impairs male function. After peripheral nerve fiber injury, apoptosis of neurons appeared. This is associated with the nature of the injury, the types of neurons, the species of animals, the age, and the distance between neurons. OBJECTIVE:To explore the motor neuron apoptosis and expression of apoptosis-associated protein in the anterior horn of the spinal cord after acute cauda equina compression. METHODS:A total of 27 canines were randomly divided into three groups. In the compression and control groups, models of cauda equina compression were established. In the normal group, no models were established. Compression group received water sac compression for 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 168 hours, with three models in each group. In the control group, only water sac was implanted, but water was not injected. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase TdT-mediated biotin dUTP nick end-labeling assay was used to detect the apoptosis of neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord. Bcl-2, Bax and Caspase-3 protein expressions were measured by immunohistochemical staining (strept avidin-biotin complex). Gray values of positive cels of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 protein expressions were detected using Qwin550Cw image colection and analysis system. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The apoptosis of motor neuron occurred in the compression groups. At 12 hours of compression, positive cels were detected, and the number of positive cels reached a peak at 72 hours. Bax and Bcl-2 protein expression was smal in the normal group. Caspase-3 protein expression was not detected in the normal and control groups. Bax and Bcl-2 protein expression was significantly increased at 8 hours, peaked at 72 hours and reduced to a normal level at 168 hours. The increased range of Bax protein expression was bigger than that of Bcl-2. Caspase-3 protein began to express at 12 hours, peaked at 72 hours and reduced to a low level at 168 hours. Bax and Caspase-3 protein expression peaked at 72 hours, and Bcl-2 protein expression was not obviously increased. These findings verified that after acute cauda equina compression, the apoptosis of neurons occurred in the anterior horn of the spinal cord. Bax and Bcl-2 protein expression showed an antagonistic action. In the Bax/Bcl-2 complex, Bax protein in a high expression promoted apoptosis, induced Caspase-3 protein expression, and neuronal apoptosis.
