Objective To investigate the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(TREM-1) of cord blood leukocytes in neonates and the transcription level of mRNA, and analyze its promoting function of inflammatory cytokine secretion. Methods During the period from September 2013 to March 2014, cord blood was collected from 20 term neonates at the time of birth, and peripheral blood was collected from 20 healthy adults. The expression of TREM-1 and TREM-1 mRNA on leukocytes was observed using flow cytometry and real-time reverse transeription-polymerase chain reaction, respectively. After the whole cord blood was stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or LP17 plus LPS, the contents of interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-8 and soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1) in the supernatant were analyzed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The statistical significance was determined using the one-way ANOVA test, t test, q test and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results The mean fluorescence intensity of TREM-1 on leukocytes of newborns was not different compared with healthy adults (P>0.05), while the percentage of TREM-1 positive on polymorphonuclear cells was lower than that of healthy adults [(82.3±7.1)% vs (98.6±4.8)%, P<0.05]. The level of TREM-1 mRNA in newborns was lower than in healthy adults (1.16±0.13 vs 1.63±0.24, t=7.714, P<0.01). The LPS treatment significantly increased sTREM-1 in newborn whole blood compared with the control treatment [(156.7±36.3) vs (34.6±6.1) pg/ml, t=13.623, P<0.01]. The concentration of IL-6, TNF-αand IL-8 decreased significantly when TREM-1 was blocked by LP17. In addition, the concentration of sTREM-1 showed a positive correlation with the levels of TNF-α(r=0.519, P<0.05), IL-6 (r=0.507, P<0.05) and IL-8 (r=0.538, P<0.05). Conclusions Healthy newborns exhibit expression of TREM-1 on monocytes similar to healthy adults, and most PMNs express TREM-1 at the newborn stage. Blocking the TREM-1 signal transduction pathway may reduce inflammatory responses of neonate leukocytes.

Objective: To detect the relationship between variant of rsl255372 in transcription factor 7-Like 2(TCF7L2) gene and the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Tianjin Han populations. Methods: Three hundred and fifty-two T2DM patients and 176 healthy controls were randomly selected to extract the genome DNA. Denaturing high performance liquid chromatography was used to detect the PCR amplified fragment. The different peaks were chosen for sequencing. The differences of different genotype frequency between the groups were analysed. The Logistic regression was used to evaluate the risk factors of T2DM. Results: The G/T genotype frequencies of rsl2255372 were 18.5% and 2.8% in T2DM group and healthy control group respectively (P < 0.05). The G/T genotype, glycosylated hemoglobin, urea nitrogen and the systolic blood pressure were the independent risk factors of T2DM, and the high density lipoprotein was the protective factor. There was no significant difference of the G/T genotype frequency in T2DM patients with different complications. Conclusion: This study indicates that G/T genotype in the TCF7L2 gene significantly contributes to T2DM susceptibility in Tianjin Han populations. The G/T genotype is one of the risk factors of the T2DM.

BACKGROUND:Total knee arthroplasty mainly used fixed platform, but more and more movable platform was selected year by year in the clinic. Rotary platform theoretical y can apparently improve the curative effects, but it has not been verified in the clinic.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the design characteristics and clinical results of Gemini MKII (Link, Germany) rotary platform.
METHODS:From January 2004 to January 2009, 108 patients (119 knees) including 31 males and 77 females were treated with total knee arthroplasty by using Gemini MKII system. There were 97 unilateral cases and 11 bilateral cases at the first stage of replacement. Preoperative diagnosis:1 case of hemophilic arthritis, 1 case of venereal Charcot’s disease, 8 cases of post-traumatic arthritis, 11 cases of rheumatoid arthritis, and 87 cases of degenerative osteoarthritis. The prosthesis was fixed with bone cement. None received patel ar replacement. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:None experienced infection, femoral condyle fracture or nerve and vascular damage. Except bilateral replacement, the average operation time of unilateral replacement was (56±13) minutes. Average postoperative hemoglobin decreased (25±5) g/L. After replacement, hemoglobin maintained over 100 g/L in 83 patients (86%), without blood transfusion. Knee joint score and function score recovered to (92.0±4.7) points and (90.3±6.8) points at half years after replacement, and became (94.4±3.2) points and (91.6±5.9) points during final fol ow-up, which was significantly improved as compared with that pre-replacement (P<0.01). No revision surgery should be done for lining prolapse or spin out, osteolysis and prosthesis loosening. These results indicated that the early and midterm results of Gemini MKII rotating-platform prosthesis were satisfactory, but the long-term results remain to be confirmed.
