Objective To study the values of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for the treatment of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome ( MODS) induced by sepsis. Methods A total of 62 patients with MODS were divided into three groups, namely non-CRRT group, short period CRRT group (24 ~ 48 h) and long period CRRT group( >48 h). Relevant factors including organ function, plasma endothelin-1 (ET-1),sepsis-related organ failure assessment(SOFA)score, average length of survival time and accumulative survival rate were analyzed . Results Compared with non-CRRT group, a statistically significant difference in SOFA score was evident on the 4th day after long period CRRT group and on the 6th day after short period CRRT group. The survival rates of three groups on the third day after treatment were 56. 3% 、 83.3% and 88.9%, respectively (P< 0.05). The survival rates of three groups three weeks after treatment were 53. 1% , 58. 3% and 66.7% , respectively (P>0.05). The average lengths of survival time in three groups were(4.4 ±2.6)days, (9.5 ±6. l)days and (10.3 ±5.4)days, respectively. Compared with non-CRRT group, the average lengths of survival time were longer in the other two groups. The levels of serum ET-1 significantly decreased after CRRT treatment (P<0.05). Conclusions The organ function and survival rate could be improved by CRRT. Average lengths of survival time were significantly prolonged in two CRRT groups(P <0.05). More effective therapeutic results including lower SOFA score and longer average length of survival time were observed when the course of CRRT was extended longer properly.

Objective To analyze the molecular genetic basis of novel allele HLA-B * 9534 and establish the allele group specific primer PCR method. Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood by commercial DNA extraction kit. The HLA-B exons 1 to 8 coding sequences of the proband were am-plified by PCR and the amplification product was purified with double enzymes digestion and both strands of exons 2, 3 and 4 were sequenced. The exon 2-4 amplification of the HLA-B * 9534 was performed with al-lele group specific primers PCR and the PCR product was directly sequenced for exon 2 to 4. Results The proband has two HLA-B alleles. The result was assigned for HLA-B * 1518 and B * 4601 combination with a mismatch in 593A/G heterozygote by DNA sequencing of exon 2 to 4 with loci primers. After separating the two alleles of the proband with allele group specific primers polymerase chain reaction method, HLA-B * 4601 and HLA-B * 9534 alleles were identified after sequencing. The HLA-B * 9534 is identical to HLA-B * 1518 except for one nucleotide substitutions in exon 3 at position 593 A→G, this results in amino acid substitution at cedon 174 from Asn to Ser. The sequences of the novel allele have been submitted to GenBank (EU046491) and the allele has been officially nominated by the WHO Nomenclature Committee. Conclusion Identification of a novel HLA-B * 9534 allele and allele group specific primer PCR for HLA-B * 9534 was re-liable.

OBJECTIVETo investigate clinical effects of arthroscopy in the treatment of medial meniscal cyst.
METHODSFrom June 2011 to January 2013, 7 patients with medial meniscal cyst were treated with arthroscopy. There were 3 males and 4 females,ranging in age from 27 to 63 years old,with a mean age of (43.93±2.10) years old. The cysts have been discovered for 3 to 30 months,with a mean time of (10.6±1.3) months. All the patients complained of knee pain,especially in the medial joint gap. The Pisani sign, Caklin sign and medial McMurray sign were all positive. Preoperative MRI examination confirmed the diagnosis. Lysholm score changes and clinical efficacy were observed through a six-month follow-up.
RESULTSThe postoperative Lysholm scores were all significantly higher than the preoperative scores. According to Sarimo standard, 6 patients got an excellent result, and 1 good.
CONCLUSIONArthroscopic treatment of medial meniscal cyst has replaced the traditional method, which could retain the normal meniscus as much as possible and repair the meniscus injury simultaneously, as well as get a good curative effect and a good recovery of knee function. This method is worthy of clinical application.

We enrolled 60 patients with American Association of Anesthesiologists grade Ⅰ - Ⅱ undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty. All patients received combined epidural and spinal anesthesia,and a nerve stimulator was used to guide placement of a femoral nerve catheter. Patients were divided into three groups according to the catheter location on X-ray : psoas muscle group ( n = 18 ), iliacus muscle group (n = 19) and local group (n =23). Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores were recorded at rest and with movement at 4, 24 and 48 h postoperatively and sensory blockade of the femoral, obturator and lateral femoral cutaneous nerves was recorded at 24 h.There were no significant differences in femoral nerve blockade among the three groups. Obturator nerve blockade was significantly better in the psoas muscle group than in the iliacus muscle and local groups, and was also better in the local group than in the iliacus muscle group. There was no significant difference in lateral femoral cutaneous nerve blockade between the psoas muscle and iliacus muscle groups, but there was better blockade in both these groups than in the local group. At 4 h postoperatively, VAS pain scores at rest were significantly lower in the psoas muscle group than in the iliacus muscle and local groups, but there were no significant differences in VAS pain scores with movement among the three groups. At 24 and 48 h postoperatively, VAS scores at rest and with movement were significantly lower in the psoas muscle group than in the iliacus muscle and local groups.
