The short stature homeobox-containing(SHOX) gene,located in the short-arm pseudoautosomal region (PAR1) of the sex chromosomes,is one of the recently discovered genes,which is related to short stature.Its encoded protein,as a transcription activator,plays an important role in the regulation of growth.It has now been confirmed that the human SHOX gene mutation can cause L?ri-Weill syndrome,Turner syndrome,idiopathic short stature growth and its related characteristic skeletal deformities.This review makes a summary about SHOX gene defects,its clinical phenotype and treatment.

BACKGROUND:Transient receptor potential protein channel is distributed in many kinds of tissue and cells in human body, and takes part in many physiologic functions and pathological changes of human body. However, up to now, transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) has not been reported in human cartilage.
OBJECTIVE:To study the expression of TRPM8, a subfamily member of transient receptor potential gene, in human knee joint cartilage.
METHODS:Fifteen samples were selected from patients after amputatioin due to severe trauma. Total protein was extracted from 300 mg cartilage tissue of every patient. To detect the distribution of TRPM8 in human
cartilage, cartilage sections were col ected in the same region. The expression and distribution of TRPM8 in human cartilage was detected by western blot analysis and immunofluorescence respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Western blot analysis showed that specific TRPM8 band was visible at molecular weight of 130 000, and as the age increased, TRPM8 expression in human cartilage was gradual y decreased. Immunofluorescence staining results showed that TRPM8 was evenly located in the cellmembrane of chondrocytes. TRPM8 is expressed in the human knee cartilage, specifical y in member of chondrocytes.

In recent years,along with social economic development and population aging,more and more fracture patients have received internal fixation and artificial joint replacement.Postoperative infection related to orthopedic implants is a catastrophic complication which imposes serious psychological,physiological and economic burdens on the patients.Therefore,it is necessary to be able to make an early diagnosis of the infection.However,diagnosis of implant-related infection is always a clinical problem for orthopedists.Currently,it is thought to be a valuable way to judge orthopedic implant infection by monitoring inflammatory cytokines.This article will offer an overview on the progress in research of diagnosis values of different inflammatory cytokines in postoperative infection related to orthopedic implants.

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between air pollutants and mortality of residents in Huairou District, Beijing, providing a basis for the formulation of air pollution control measures. Methods : The data of daily deaths, meteorological factors and air pollutants in Huairou District from 2014 to 2018 were collected from Beijing Disease Prevention Monitoring Information Integration and Analysis System, Huairou Meteorological Bureau and Environmental Monitoring Station. The generalized additive models were used to analyze the relationship between the average daily concentration of air pollutants and the daily deaths. Results: The medians of daily average concentrations of SO2, NO2, CO, O3, PM10 and PM2.5 were 5.00 μg/m3, 24.00 μg/m3, 0.71 mg/m3, 77.27 μg/m3, 64.25 μg/m3 and 44.13 μg/m3, respectively. Except for O3, the daily average concentrations of SO2, NO2, CO, PM10 and PM2.5 showed decreasing trends from 2014 to 2018. An increase of 10 μg/m3 of NO2 resulted in an elevation of 1.69% ( 95%CI: 0.31%-3.08% ) , 3.31% ( 95%CI: 1.24%-5.42% ) and 3.31% ( 95%CI: 0.51%-6.19% ) for non-accidental death in the whole population, females and people under 65 years old, respectively, with a delay of 2 days (lag2). For every 10 μg/m3 increase in the daily average concentrations of CO and PM2.5, the risk of non-accidental death among people under 65 years old at lag2 increased by 0.08% ( 95%CI: 0.01%-0.14% ) and 0.88% ( 95%CI: 0.12%-1.64% ) , respectively. For every 10 μg/m3 increase in daily average concentration of O3, there was 0.69% ( 95%CI: 0.02%-1.36% ) increase in daily male non-accidental death risk at lag4. The results of the multi-pollutant model showed that after adjusting the effects of the other two air pollutants, NO2, CO and PM2.5 had no statistically significant effects on the daily non-accidental deaths of people under 65 years old at lag2 ( P>0.05 ) . Conclusion The ambient NO2, CO, O3 and PM2.5 pollution increase daily non-accidental deaths, which shows a lag effect．

ObjectiveTo compare and observe the clinical effect of Qizhengxiaotong plaster and Votalin emulsion in curing osteoarthritis of knee (KOA) for outpatient treatment.MethodsIn 70 cases,the KOA patients are randomly divided into treatment group and control group,respectively given Qizhengxiaotong plaster plus Xianling Gubao and Votalin emulsion for one month.To observe the clinical effects of patients respectively pre and post treatment.ResultsAfter a course of treatment,Qizhengxiaotong plaster plus Xianling Gubao could improve the clinical symptoms and signs significantly.Its improvement for pain was the same as Votalin.But Qizhengxiaotong plaster plus Xianling Gubao was significantly better than Votalin in eliminating the swollen,tenderness and dysfunction.And there was no obvious difference between Qizhengxiaotong plaster plus Xianling Gubao and Votalin emulsion in total effective rate,evaluated by WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index Guide and VRS-5.The typical symptoms were improved after the therapeutic method.No adverse reaction was found during the treatment.ConclusionQizhengxiaotong plaster plus Xianling Gubao had obvious effect on the osteoarthritis of knee and could improve the patients' pain and limitation of activity.Hence,it was worthy to be generalized in the conservative treatment of the osteoarthritis of knee for out-patients.

Objective To study the value of clinical application of leukocyte classification alarm system (Q‐Flag ) for Sysmex XT‐1800i blood cell analyzer .Methods 394 blood samples with alarm system (Q‐Flag) and 190 ones without abnormal alarm infor‐mation detected by the Sysmex XT‐1800i blood cell analyzer were performed to observe the quantity and morphology of blood cells by manual differentiation ,and the results were compared between them .Results The alarm system of Sysmex XT‐1800i blood cell analyzer in detecting cell morphologic abnormalities was 100 .0% for sensitivity ,62 .3% for specificity ,70 .8% for positive predic‐tive value and 100 .0% for negative predictive value .Based on thegold standardof manual differentiation ,no abnormal cells were observed in those blood samples without Q‐Flag alarm information and the coincidence rate was 100% .The coincidence rate of leu‐kocyte classification was from 0 .0% to 75 .0% for blood cell analyzer when the alarm system (Q‐Flag) was between 100U and 200U ,and that was from 66 .7% to 95 .6% when the alarm system (Q‐Flag) was between 200U and 300U .Conclusion The alarm system sensitivity of leukocyte classification alarm system (Q‐Flag) is high for Sysmex XT‐1800i blood cell analyzer ,and it is nec‐essary to manually differentiate the samples with abnormal Q‐Flag in order to provide accurate and reliable clinical diagnostic infor‐mation .

OBJECTIVE:To compare therapeutic efficacy and safety of desflurane and sevoflurane for anesthesia of elderly pa-tients. METHODS:A randomized,parallel-controlled method was used,120 elderly patients undergoing anesthesia were random-ized into trial group and control group,with 60 cases in each group. Based on routine medication and disposal,control group was additionally given sevoflurane for anesthesia,and trial group given desflurane for anesthesia. The blood pressure and heart rate were recorded before anesthesia,2 min and 10 min after intubation,2 min and 30 min after the start of the operation;the extubation time,eye opening time,consciousness recovery time and postoperative complications were also recorded. RESULTS:10 min after intubation,the heart rate of trial group was significantly faster then that of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the blood pressure and heart rate of 2 groups had no statistically significant difference between 2 groups at other time points(P>0.05). The extubation time and consciousness recovery time of trial group were significantly shorter than those of control group, with statistical significance(P<0.05). The postoperative complications mainly were hypopiesia,hypertension,bronchospasm,nau-sea and vomiting,and dysphoria;the incidence of postoperative complications in trial group and control group were 25.0% and 40.0%,with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Desflurane is effective with less postoperative complications for the anesthesia of elderly patients.
