Objective To explore the correlation between ultrasonographic findings and relevant technical factors in traumatic lipohemarthrosis. Methods Fifty-two patients with traumatic lipohemarthrosis underwent ultrasonic examination in supine position (26 in unbent, 16 in external rotary position, 10 in unbent and 45° rotation) before operation, and 22 of them underwent dynamic examination. Findings of ultrasography were compared with manifestations of MRI and CT regarded as gold standard.Results Fifty-two patients with traumatic lipohemarthrosis were diagnosed correctly. The best effect of ultrasonic examination of lipohemarthrosis was observed on suprapatellar bursa. Superior border of patella were showed well in supine straight position, then turned to the level of patella, and the structure below patella were showed badly. The best posture was in supine genuflex position with 45° rotation when the joint effusion presented, by which thicker layer liquids could be displayed than in straight position. Three layer liquids could not be displayed synchronously in mild external rotary rest position of lower extremity, and the combination of findings at internal and external side were favorable to the diagnosis. Liquids bed changed from one layer to two layers and then to three layers, from fuzzy to clear gradually in dynamic examination.Conclusion Ultrasonic manifestations of traumatic lipohemarthrosis are closely correlated to the position, posture and arresting time during examination.

One hundred and seventeen patients with newly diagnosed autoimmune thyroid diseases(AITDs)and 30 normal controls(NCs)were selected.All the patients were divided into 5 groups:hyperthyroidism group(n=33),subclinical hyperthyroidism group(n=21),hypothyroidism group(n=25),subclinical hypothyroidism group(n=23)and euthyroidism group(n=15).Plasma malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide(SOD)and inflammatory factors levels were measured.Our results showed that plasma MDA level in dysthyroidism groups was significantly higher than that in NCs group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).SOD/MDA ratio in AITD groups Was significantly lower than that in NCs group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).In a multiple step-wise regression analysis,serum hishly sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were independent factors of MDA.This study might suggest that plasma MDA level in AITD patients receiving no treatment may increase.MDA may be correlated with hs-CRP or TNF-α levels.

Objective To investigate the relationship between oxidative stress and lipid metabolism characteristics in elderly patients under different status of thyroid function. Methods Eighty-six newly-diagnosed elderly patients with thyroid diseases,83 non-elderly patients with thyroid diseases and 20 normal subjects as control were selected.and 47 hyperthyroidism and 39hypothyroidism in elderly,43 hyperthyroidism and 40 hypothyroidism in non-elderly were diagnosed according to diagnostic criteria of the thyroid disease.The levels of fasting plasma malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide(SOD)and oxidized low density lipoprotein(OX-LDL)were measured by thiobarhiturates,colorimetric method and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Meanwhile,lipid profile and thyroid function were also measured,SOD/MDA ratio was calculated. Results Lipid profiles in the elderly hyperthyroidism group were significantly higher than those in the non-elderly group(P＜O.05 or P＜0.01)but were significantly lower than those of normal control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The plasma MDA[(10.23±6.29)μmol/L vs.(3.66±2.53)μmol/L vs.(7.37±4.58)μmol/L],free fatty acids(FFA)[(0.86±0.58)mmol/L us.(0.45±0.12)mmol/L vs.(0.61±O.46)mmol/L]and SOD levels were significantly higher in elderly patients with hyperthyroidism than in normal control and non-elderly hyperthyroidism groups(P＜0.05 or P＜O.01).In the patients with hypothyroidism,the plasma MDA[(9.03±5.98)μmol/L vs.(6.59±3.18)μmol/L vs.(3.66±2.53)μmol/L],OX-LDL[(387.36±71.04)μg/L vs.(355.22±45.01)μg/L vs.(324.53±56.19)μg/L],TC,LDL-C,non-HDL-C,LP(a) and Apo-B100 levels were significantly higher in the elderly group than in the non-elderly and normal control groups(P＜0.05 orP＜0.01).The SOD/MDA ratio was significantly lower in the elderly patient groups with hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism than in normal control and non-elderly groups(all P＜0.01).In a multiple step-wise regression analysis.FT4 and FFA were independent factors related tO MDA in hyperthyroidism group,and non-HDL-C and LDL-C were independent factors related to MDA inhypothyroidism group. Conclusions Serious lipid metabolic disorder exists in newly-diagnosed and untreated elderly patients with hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.It is suggested that oxidative stress is obviously strengthened in elderly patients with thyroid function disorder and that the degree of oxidative stress is correlated with lipid metabolic disorder.
