BACKGROUND:Total knee arthroplasty has matured in clinical treatment. LPS-Flex Mobile Bearing System (Zimmer, USA) artificial knee prosthesis is the high-flexion rotating platform type knee prosthesis. The time of its clinical application in China is short, so its advantages have not been reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the preliminary clinical outcome of the total knee arthroplasty with LPS-Flex Mobile Bearing system artificial knee prosthesis (Zimmer, USA), and to assess the biocompatibility of artificial prosthesis and host using range of motion of knee and function after replacement. METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients (42 knees) undergoing total knee arthroplasty using Zimmer LPS-Flex Mobile Bearing prostheses (high-flexion rotating platform type knee prosthesis) in The First Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University from February 2012 to March 2014, including 9 males (10 knees) and 28 females (32 knees), aged 47-78 years, averagely 63.7 years. Bone cement fixation was used, and the patel a was not treated with replacement. Postoperative complications were observed. Ranges of motion of knee joint preoperatively and postoperatively were compared. The recovery of knee joint function was evaluated using Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 34 cases (38 knees) were fol owed up for 6-28 months. Range of motion of knee joint improved from 88.5° before operation to 124.2° after operation on average. Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score improved from 52.5 before replacement to 91.1 after replacement, showing significant differences (P<0.01). Therapeutic effects were assessed according to Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score:excel ent in 20 cases, good in 16 cases, average in 2 cases, with an excel ent and good rate of 95%. The incidence of various complications was low. These data suggested that short-period clinical outcomes of high-flexion rotating platform type knee prosthesis replacement are satisfactory. This prosthesis has advantages in its design, which is more close to the physical structure of knee joint, but its long-period outcomes deserve further investigations.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of tumor related gene gankyrin expression in pancreatic cancer.Methods The immunohistochemical staining was performed to study the gankyrin expression in 62 pairs of pancreatic cancer and matched non-tumor tissues.The correlations ofgankyrin expression with pathological parameters and the influences on the prognosis were analyzed.Results Ggankyrin positivity in pancreatic cancer and matched non tumor tissue was 2.5％ (45/62)and 19.4％ (12/62),respectively.The positivity of gankyrin was significantly higher in pancreatic cancer compared with matched non-tumor tissues,and the differences were statistical significant (P ＜ 0.01).Gankyrin expression in pancreatic cancer tissues were significantly correlated with TNM stage,differentiation and metastasis (P ＜ 0.05),but not with age,gender or tumor location (P ＞ 0.05).The 3-year survival rates of patients with positive and negative gankyrin expression were 17.8 ％ (8/45)and 41.2％ (7/17),respectively.Patients with positive gankyrin expression had a significantly shorter survival period compared with these with negative expression in pancreatic cancer tissues (P =0.034).Conclusions Gankyrin was overexpressed in pancreatic cancer,which was correlated with poor prognosis.

Objective To observe the results and reality of transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TUR-Bt) with upside down loop and plsamakinetic in the prevention of obturator nerve reflex.Methods A total of 211 patients with lumbar anesthesia received TUR-Bt.Firstly,the tumor tower above bladder wall was cut with the traditional way.When intraoperative findings were obturator nerve reflex,or to the obturator nerve mapping area,operation should be changed to superimpulse plasma column electrode vaporization to cut off residual tumor tissue,then after flipping the loop,the residual tumour was resected with upside-down loop from the tumour side wall.Results In 211 cases,192 cases had a little obturator nerve reflex,but the movement of body was not obvious,which did not influence the operation.The serious complication,such as perforation of bladder and injury of nerve and vessel,did not occur.Conclusions The lateral resection of bladder side wall tumour with upside-down loop can effectively avoid strong obturator nerve reflex,which is safe,uncomplicated,and efficacious and it does not increase the additional outlay and hurt.

Objective To study the changes of the peripheral blood regulatory B cells and related cytokines in children patients with chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (CITP),and to analyze their correlations with effective Th cells,and to discuss their roles in the pathogenesis of CITP.Methods The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC)were separated in 30 cases of CITP,then percentages of Th1 ,Th17,Th22 and Breg cells were detected by the flow cytometry(FCM).IFN-γ,IL-17,IL-22 and IL-10 levels in culture supernatant were measured by the ELISA method.Results Compared with the control group,the proportions of the peripheral blood Th1 ,Th17,Th22 subsets in CITP children were increased[(18.4±4.7)% vs.(10.82±4.4)%;(2.42±1.02 )% vs.(1 .23±0.42)%;(0.79±0.24)% vs.(0.26±0.11)%],the proportion of Breg cells was reduced significantly,the differ-ences had statistical significance[(0.83±0.21)% vs.(1 .89±0.12)%,P <0.05].In CITP children,the IFN-γ,IL-17,IL-22 levels in culture supernatant were higher than those in the control group[(278.2±121.2)pg/mL vs.(181.8 ±82.2)pg/mL;(214.8 ± 100.5)pg/mL vs.(161 .4±67.8)pg/mL;(122.16±22.2)pg/mL vs.(90.8±31.1)pg/mL],but the IL-10 level was lower than that in the healthy control group[(27.4±12.6)pg/mL vs.(46.1±16.2)pg/mL),differences between them had statistical signifi-cance(P <0.05).Besides,there was a positive correlation between the proportion of Breg cells and cytokine IL-10 level(r=0.617, P <0.05 ),however,there was a negative correlation between the proportion of Breg cells with Th1 ,Th17 and Th22 cells (P <0.05),between IL-10 level with IFN-γ,IL-17 and IL-22 levels(P <0.05).Conclusion The downregulation of Breg cells proportion may participate in the immune disorder mechanism of effective Th cells in CITP children,which can provide a new idea for the im-munoregulation therapy in CITP children.
