Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in treatment of severe adults Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). Methods Sixteen cases of KBD patients underwent TKA in Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital, including 2 males (2 knees) and 14 females (17 knees), aged 41 to 56 years, mean (56.38 ± 6.40) years, left knee in 8 cases and right knee in 11 cases, knee varus in 15 cases and valgus knees in 4 cases. Visual Analogue Scale/Score (VAS), Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) scores, knee range of motion, varus deformity and postoperative complications were observed before and after TKA. Results In this group of TKA patients, the levels of VAS scores in pre-total knee arthroplasty (pre-TKA), 2 weeks post-total knee arthroplasty (post-TKA), 3 months post-TKA, and at the end of the follow-up were 7.51 ± 1.00, 3.56 ± 1.29, 1.83 ± 1.40 and 1.10 ± 0.87, respectively. The level of VAS scores in 2 weeks post-TKA was significantly lower than that in pre-TKA (P<0.01), and the VAS levels were continued to decrease in post-TKA (all P< 0.01). Total HSS score at the end of the follow-up post-TKA was 78.60 ± 5.30, which was significantly higher than that in pre-TKA (43.59 ± 10.08, t=19.21, P< 0.01). At the end of the follow-up post-TKA, in addition to the muscle strength, the levels of pain, knee function, activity, flexion deformity and stability (25.94 ± 4.17, 15.88 ± 3.70, 14.09 ± 1.03, 6.79 ± 2.25, 8.58 ± 1.30) were significantly higher than those in pre-TKA (11.56 ± 5.39, 7.56 ± 1.75, 9.86 ± 3.85, 3.05 ± 3.22, 5.00 ± 3.07, t= 16.00, 8.32, 6.43, 7.07, 6.95, all P< 0.01). At the end of follow-up post-TKA, the knee degree of extension [(3.05 ± 2.71)°] was significantly lower than that in pre-TKA [(15.11 ± 11.30)°, t= -5.40, P< 0.01], the knee degree of flexion [(115.79 ± 9.65)°] was significantly higher than that in pre-TKA [(93.95 ± 22.40)°, t=6.02, P< 0.01), the degree of varus [(2.40 ± 2.40)° ] and valgus [(3.75 ± 2.50)° ] deformity was significantly lower than those in pre-TKA [(11.33 ± 10.43)°, (18.00 ± 5.72)°, t = - 4.15, - 3.61, all P< 0.05]. One patient was diagnosed as knee tuberculosis in 6 months post-TKA. There was no complication in this group of patients. Conclusion The TKA in severe adults knee of KBD can significantly reduce knee pain, improve knee function, correct joint deformities and improve quality of life in patients, and shows good clinical results.

ObjectiveAnalyze the results of distal aortic reoperation in Marfan syndrome patients after proximal aortic surgery.MethodsBetween January 2000 and January 2010, 28 Marfan patients underwent surgical repair of distal aortic disease after aortic root surgery at our institution.There were 20 males and 8 females.Age ranged from 23 to 52 years [ mean (38.5 ± 8.7) years ].First time operations were Bentall procedure in 24, David procedure in 4.There were 8 cases of Stanford A dissection and 20 cases of aortic root aneurysm.The second time operations included 1 partial aortic arch replacement, 2 total arch replacements, 7 total arch replacements combined with stent elephant trunk, 6 descending thoracic aorta replacements,10 thoracoabdominal aorta replacements and 2 total aorta replacements.The interval between the lst and 2nd operation was 1 to 12 years [mean (6.43 ±3.07) years].The surgical technique used for distal procedures was dependent on the pathology of the aorta.Median repeat sternotomy was used for surgical exposure in 10 patients, who required an arch/proximal descending aortic procedure.Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was established through the right axillary perfusion and right femoral venous drainage in all of these patients.16 patients were operated on through a left-sided incision, namely, a posterolateral thoracotomy, or a thoracoabdominal incision, depending on the distal extent of aortic replacement.For such patients, the left femoral vessels were cannulated for CPB in 14 patients and the rest 2 patients were operated on without CPB.Two patients with total aorta replacement were operated on through a median sternotomy combined with thoracoabdominal incision.22 patients underwent deep hypothermic circulatory arrest because of the replacement of anrtic arch or the extensive aneurismal arch.Reconstruction of intercostal arteries (T8-L1) was performed in 16 patients for the protection of spinal cord.ResultsTwo patients (7.1％) died postoperatively.Neurological morbidity included 1 patient with stroke, 1 paraplegia and 2 temporary paraparesisThree patients required temporary tracheotomy for prolonged weaning form the respirator.All patients were followed up for 10-118 months [mean (40.8 ±29.5) months].Two patients died during follow-up.The survival rate was (94.5 ± 1.3)％,(90.6 ± 1.4) ％ at 1-and 5-year, respectively.ConclusionDistal aortic reoperation in Marfan patients can be performed with good short-and long-term results.Complete aortic arch replacement with elephant trunk technique, if safely performed,should be considered for Marfan patients presenting with type A dissection.

Objective To compare proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) levels between premenopausal and postmenopausal women,and to investigate the relationship between serum PCSK9 and metabolic factors.Methods Totally 515 women were enrolled from the study on diabetes of prediction,prevention,and intervention in Nanjing in 2009.Survey,physical examinations,and determination of related metabolic indexes were performed.Serum PCSK9 level was measured by sandwich ELISA.Results Serum PCSK9 level was positively correlated with low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C),total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride,fasting plasma glucose,body mass index,waist-hip ratio,and age in women (all P＜0.01).PCSK9 level was significantly lower in premenopausal women than that in postmenopausal women [(58.18 ± 25.44 vs 80.91 ± 33.74) ng/ml,P ＜0.01].Conclusion Higher level of PCSK9 exists in postmenopausal women compared with premenopausal women.The level of PCSK9 is closely correlated with age,TC,and LDL-C.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics and significance of insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF- 1) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP2) expressions in ankle cartilage of patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD).Methods:In this case-control study, 10 KBD patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Orthopedics of Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital from January 2010 to December 2016 were selected as KBD group, and 10 patients with ankle fracture caused by trauma but without talus injury during the same period were selected as control group, the cartilage tissues of the two groups were collected. IGF-1, IGFBP2 positive cells, the mRNA and protein expressions of IGF-1, IGFBP2 in the cartilage tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry, real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blotting, respectively. According to the expressions of IGF-1 and IGFBP2 in ankle cartilage of KBD patients, a patient with amputation caused by trauma was selected in Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital, and ankle joint cartilage was taken to prepare chondrocytes for in vitro cell verification experiments. The chondrocyte were divided into control group (0 ng/ml T-2 toxin), T-2 treatment group (20 ng/ml T-2 toxin) and T-2+ IGFBP2 silenced group (20 ng/ml T-2 toxin+ 50 nmol/L IGFBP2 siRNA), the MTT method and dimethyl methylene blue staining were used to detect the activity of chondrocyte and the secretion of sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG). Results:In the control group and the KBD group, the number of IGF-1[(47.26 ± 8.97), (68.15 ± 7.42) cells] and IGFBP2 positive cells [(27.56 ± 5.40), (71.85 ± 7.62) cells] in the cartilage tissues were significantly different ( t = 4.487, 9.402, P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, the IGF-1, IGFBP2 mRNA and protein expression levels in KBD group were significantly higher, the differences were significantly different ( t = 3.340, 20.700, 4.684, 8.699, P < 0.05 or < 0.01). In cell experiment, the chondrocyte activitives and sGAG contents of the control group, T-2 treatment group, and T-2+ IGFBP2 silenced group were significantly different ( F = 226.70, 80.66, P < 0.01); among them, the cell activitives and sGAG contents of the T-2 treatment group and T-2+ IGFBP2 silenced group were lower than those of control group ( P < 0.05), and the T-2+ IGFBP2 silenced group were higher than those of the T-2 treatment group ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:The expressions of IGF-1 and IGFBP2 in the ankle cartilage of KBD patients are significantly higher. Silencing IGFBP2 gene can reduce the inhibitory effect of T-2 toxin on chondrocyte activity and the secretion of sGAG.
