Objective To investigate the posterior condylar angle(PCA) of distal femur in normal adult, and provide reasonable referenced parameters of the rotational alignment for the total knee arthroplasty in Chinese. Methods This study concluded 118 volunteers(186 knees) in Suwan area (67 males 103 knees, and 51 females 83 knees), whose knees were healthy, without any malformation. The average age was 39.7 years(range, 18-69 years). All subjects were divided into three groups according to the ages: group A, 18-39 years (85 knees); group B, 40-59 years(73 knees); group C, more than 60 years(28 knees). The CT scan was employed to the mechanical axis which was perpendicular to the knee joint in the distal femur. The PCA was measured from the CT film across lateral and medial femoral epicondyle. The factorial design was used to compare the data among three groups. Results First, in the 103 knees of male, 57 in left side and 46 in right side. The PCA were 5.9??1.6? in left side, 5.6??2.6? in right side(mean, 5.8??2.2?). Then in the 83 knees of female, 38 in left side and 45 in right side, the PCA was 5.5??2.5? in left side, 5.2??1.5? in right side(mean, 5.3??1.9?). And the PCA was 5.5??1.9? in group A, 5.7??1.8? in group B, 5.5??2.7? in group C, respectively, and there is no statistical significant difference in either gender or side and age. Conclusion The normal adult PCA of distal femur is 5.6??2.1? in Suwan area, without difference in gender, which is beyond the Westerns obviously. So in the total knee arthroplasty of Chinese, the malalignment will likely occur if the rotational alignment is performed according to Western style, the eversion 3? to the posterior condylar line in distal femur.

Objective To explore the relationship between 677C/T polymorphism of methy lenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene and diabetic macrovascular complications (including cerebral infarction and coronary heart disease) in Shanghai.Methods Among 416 Chinese subjects, 216 were in macrovascular disease group 〔the atherosclerosis (AS) group〕 which included cerebral infarction (CI) subgroup consisting of 111 subjects (50 cases with and 61 without diabetes) and coronary heart disease (CHD) subgroup consisting of 105 subjects (48 with and 57 without diabetes); 100 subjects were in diabetes group without macrovascular disease (DM); and 100 normal subjects in control group (C). Genotypes were determined by PCR/restriction enzyme digestion and the relationship between 677C/T polymorphism and diabetic macrovascular complications was studied by population based association analysis. Results The frequencies of MTHFR TT genotype and T allele were significantly higher in macrovascular disease group. Logistic regression analysis showed that MTHFR gene was a potential contributor to AS. Comparison of genotype frequencies between diabetic and non diabetic subgroups in macrovascular disease group revealed no difference. Significant difference of high density lipoprotein cholesterol and diastolic blood pressure between different genotype subgroups was observed within some macrovascular disease groups after stratification by sex and diabetes. Conclusion MTHFR contributes to the development of macroangiopathy (cerebral infarction and coronary heart disease) whether associated with type 2 diabetes or not in Shanghai district.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of several methods in eliminating Mycoplasma contamination in cell culture of human hepatoma-derived cell line C3A. Methods PCR was performed to detect the Mycoplasmas contamination in cell cultures. The contaminated samples were treated by ciprofloxa-cin, heating, Plasmocure or co-culturing with macrophages. Transmission electron microscope ( TEM) and Q-PCR were used to comparatively analyze the cell morphology and gene expression before and after Plas-mocure treatment. Results Plasmocure succeeded in eliminating Mycoplasma contamination, while cipro-floxacin showed temporary efficacy. Heating and co-culturing with macrophages failed to eliminate Mycoplas-ma contamination. No Mycoplasma contamination in the Plasmocure-treated group was observed under TEM and the expression of ALB, TF and CYP3A4 genes were higher than the genes expressed in the contaminated group (P<0. 01). Conclusion Plasmocure treatment was effective in eliminating Mycoplasma contamina-tion in cell culture. Moreover, the cell morphology and gene expression in Plasmocure-treated group were re-stored to normal.

OBJECTIVETo study the therapeutic effects of posterolateral depression fractures of the tibial plateau through a modified anterolateral approach.
METHODSFrom February 2011 to January 2012,13 patients with posterolateral depression fractures of the tibial plateau were treated through a modified anterolateral approach. There were 8 males and 5 females, ranging in age from 28 to 59 years old (49.2 years old on average). Data from patients were collected retrospectively as follows: X-ray, time of fracture healing and the complications of fracture healing. The patients were evaluated both clinically and radiologically according to the Rasmussen score system.
RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 6 to 18 months (mean 13.7 months). All the patients got bony union. The average radiographic bony union time was 15.1 weeks (ranged, 11 to 17 weeks). No case of secondary articular depression was found. No complications such as malunion or joint stiffness were found. But 1 patient had superficial infection and 1 patient had common peroneal nerve injury. According to the Rasmussen score system,the mean radiological score was 16.50 ± 0.67 (ranged, 13 to 18), and the mean functional score was 25.20 ± 2.21 (ranged, 13 to 30). The mean range of knee motion was (125.3 ± 9.3)° (ranged, 0° to 135°).
CONCLUSIONTreatment of depression fractures of posterolateral tibial plateau with a modified anterolateral approach is a safe method with effective exposure, due to its stable fixation and relatively good outcome with minimal soft-tissue complications. It is regarded as an ideal procedure for depression fractures of posterolateral tibial plateau.

Objective To investigate the relationship between Pin1 and CyclinD1 expression and the development of gastrointestinal stromal tu?mor(GIST). Methods The protein and mRNA expression of Pin1 and CyclinD1 in 85 samples of GIST and adjacent non?cancerous tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry and real?time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results The expression rate of Pin1 protein in GIST tis?sues(64.7%;55/85)was higher than that in adjacent non?cancerous tissues(26.7%;4/15). Similarly,the expression rate of CyclinD1 protein in GIST tissues(42.3%;36/85)was higher than that in adjacent non?cancerous tissues(6.7%;1/15). The expression of Pin1 and CyclinD1 mRNA in GIST tissues was 7.03 and 5.53 times that in adjacent non?cancerous tissues ,respectively. There was no obvious correlation between the expres?sion of Pin1 and clinicopathological parameters. The expression of CyclinD1 was positively correlated with the grade of NIH and tumor diameter (P<0.05). There was a significant correlation between the expression of Pin1 and CyclinD1 in GIST tissues. Conclusion The expression of both Pin1 and CyclinD1 was up?regulated in GIST tissues. The significant correlation between the expression of Pin1 and CyclinD1 in GIST tissues sug?gests that their synergistic effect promotes carcinogenesis and the development of GIST.
