Objective To explore the genotype distribution of lipoprotein lipase gene polymorphism at Ser447Stop locus and its possible association with metabolic syndrome and dietary intakes. Method Ser447Stop polymorphism was determined by PCR-PFLP method in 222 adults with MS and 222 normal adults as control. Their physical examination,dietary investigation and levels of biochemical profile,including BG,TG,TC and HDL-C were analyzed. Results (1) The genotype frequencies of Ser447Stop SS,SX and XX were 85.6%,13.3% and 1.1% respectively,which were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. There was no significant difference in frequencies of genotypes or allele between MS and the control,and between male and female. (2) After adjusting age and gender,the levels of serum TG were significantly different among three genotype groups,the highest in SS genotype and the lowest in XX genotype. (3) After adjusting age,gender and body mass index,the intakes of protein and carbohydrate were significantly different among three genotype groups. (4) There was significantly different in negative correlation between the intakes of protein and serum TG levels after adjusting age,gender and body mass index. Conclusion Lipoprotein lipase gene polymorphism influenced serum TG levels,while associated with protein intakes. It might contribute to the predisposition in metabolic syndrome response to dietary intervention.

Objective To investigate the dosimetric properties of PTW 60019 synthetic diamond detector in small photon beams.Methods A PTW 60019 synthetic diamond detector was tested under 6 and 10 MV photon beams,respectively.Linearity with dose,dose rate dependence and off-axis ratio were measured and compared to those measured by an IBA SFD.Percentage depth doses were measured and compared to those measured by an IBA SFD and a PTW 31010 semiflex chamber.Total scatter factors were measured and compared to those measured by an IBA SFD and a PTW 31016 PinPoint chamber.Results The dose response of a PTW 60019 synthetic diamond detector showed a good linear behavior as a function of dose,with observed deviations below 0.2％ over a dose range from 100 to 1 000 MU.The dose rate response was almost independent,with deviations below 0.2％ in the dose rate range from 37 to 614 MU/min.For the fields of 20-100 mm in diameter,there were dose differences in percentage depth doses within 1％ as compared to an IBA SFD and a PTW 31010 semiflex chamber.For the 10 mm diameter field,the differences were up to 5.8％ in the build-up region.Off-axis ratios measurements showed a good agreement among the involved detectors (＜ 1％).The higher differences appeared in the penumbra region.A good agreement was also found in terms of total scatter factor measurements for the related detectors.Conclusions The observed dosimetric properties of the PTW 60019 synthetic diamond detector indicate that it is a suitable candidate for small photon beam dosimetry.

OBJECTIVETo compare the early clinical outcomes of primary total knee arthroplasty in the valgus knee between mobile-bearing prosthesis and fixed-bearing prosthesis.

METHODSFrom January 2011 to December 2013, 17 patients (23 knees) treated by the same surgeon were selected for a retrospective study in the First Hospital of Jilin University, including 2 males and 15 females with a mean age of 61.5 years old (48 to 75 years). The pre-operative diagnosis included osteoarthritis (14 patients, 19 knees) and rheumatoid arthritis (3 patients, 4 knees). The patients with valgus deformity were divided into group A and group B. The patients in group A were treated with the fixed-bearing prosthesis (9 patients, 12 knees), and the patients in group B were treated with the mobile-bearing prosthesis (8 patients, 11 knees). The Knee Society Score (KSS), Hosptial for Special Surgery (HSS), Western Ontario MacMaster (WOMAC), the range of motion (ROM) and femorotibial angle were collected at pre-operation and post-operation follow-up for statistical analysis.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 6 to 36 months (mean 25 months). The valgus deformity was corrected in all patients, and there were significant differences for all patients between pre-operation and post-operation at the latest follow-up with regard to the KSS knee score, function score, HSS score, WOMAC score, ROM and femorotibial angle (P<0.01). There were no significant differences in KSS knee score, function score, HSS score, WOMAC score, improvement in ROM and femorotibial angle between two groups at the latest follow-up. However there were significant differences in ROM (P<0.05) between fixed-bearing group (101.8±8.8)° and mobile-bearing group (108.4±7.2)° at the latest follow-up. No case with spin-out of mobile bearing was observed. There were no complications in any patient, such as infection, common peroneal nerve injury, dislocation and instability. The X-ary imaging showed no osteolysis or implant loosening.

CONCLUSIONThe early clinical outcomes of primary total knee arthroplasty by using mobile-bearing prosthesis and fixed-bearing prosthesis are satisfactory for the treatment of the valgus knee, and the short term clinical outcomes of mobile-bearing TKA and fixed-bearing TKA are similar.
