BACKGROUND: Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is widely used as acetabulum. The hip joint will produce lots of grind particles and lead to loosening of artificial joint because of alternating load and bad lubricate condition.OBJECTIVE: To learn about the lubricate mechanism of joint, introduce the present situation on artificial hip joint of UHMWPE including wear behavior and wear resistance properties, and grope for scientific evaluate method of tribological properties in artificial joints.RETRIEVAL STRATEGY: The articles published between January 2000 and October 2007 were searched by using computer with the key terms "hip joint, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, tribology" in CNKI, Weipu Science and Technology Database, Wanfang Database, and its language was limited to Chinese. Meanwhile, the English articles were searched in IEEE/IEE Electronic Library and Elsevier Electronic Journal Database with the key terms "hip simulators, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, tribology ". Those referring to the friction and wear property of the joints were included, whereas repeated researches were deleted.LITERATURE EVALUATION: Totally 729 articles were received. After the primary screening of the titles and abstracts, 601 repeated or similar researches were excluded, and other 128 articles were adopted for further analysis, finally 22 articles in accordance with the inclusion criteria were included as references.DATA SYNTHESIS: The study about UHMWPE focused two points, one is surface modification, the other is wear and friction mechanism.①The study indicates that wear properties of UHMWPE can be improved by surface modification, such as ion implantation and nanometer padding have a remarkable elevating ability of the wear and mechanical properties.②At recent years, scholars do many basal experiences about the tribology of hip joints, and have approved that wear rate of friction pairs would reduce under biological lubricate condition using artificial joint simulators or traditional tester in various conditions.CONCLUSION: The study about hip joint in China drops behind the developed counties, this traditional method can not really reflect wear and friction properties in vivo. Therefore, the following research should include making clear the relationships of load, environmental condition and wear of artificial joint in vivo, as well as groping for a scientific evaluate method of tribological properties in hip joints.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of basic periodontal therapy combined with low-level laser irradiation on patients with severe periodontitis.Methods:18 patients with severe periodontitis (a total of 43 teeth samples) were enrolled from the Dental Department of Tianjin First Central Hospital from June 2018 to May 2019. The patients were averagely divided into the control group (20 teeth) and the experimental group (23 teeth) according to the random number table method. All the teeth were firstly received basic periodontal treatment. In the experimental group, the gingival pouch of the teeth was irradiated with low energy laser for 15 s on the 1st, 2nd, and 7th days after the basic periodontal treatment, in which the output power is 80 mw, the energy density is 4 J/cm 2, and irradiated area is 0.28 cm 2. Before the treatment and 1 week and 4 weeks after the treatment, the periodontal probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival sulcus bleeding index (SBI) of the teeth of the control group and the experimental group were detected, and the gingival sulcus of the two groups were collected at the same time. The level of basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) in gingival crevicular fluid was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the level of serum hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was detected by immunoturbidimetry. Results:Before the treatment, there were no significant differences in the age, PD, CAL, SBI, hs-CRP and b-FGF levels of patients with severe periodontitis between the two groups (all P>0.05). One week after the treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in PD, CAL, hs-CRP and b-FGF levels between the two groups (all P>0.05), and the SBI of the experimental group (2.43±0.97) was lower than that of the control group (4.13±0.78), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Four weeks after the treatment, the SBI of the experimental group (2.26±0.96) was lower than that of the control group (3.75±0.72) ( P<0.01), there was no statistical difference between the two groups in PD and CAL (all P>0.05), the b-FGF level of the experimental group [(35.28±5.41) pg/30 s] was higher than that of the control group [(33.45±2.37) pg/30 s] ( P<0.05), and the serum hs-CRP level of the experimental group [(3.23±1.73) mg/L] was significantly lower than that of the control group [(5.79±0.63) mg/L] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Low-level laser therapy can effectively reduce the SBI of severe periodontitis patients in the short term, but it has little significance for reducing PD and improving CAL. At the same time, low-level laser therapy can reduce the serum hs-CRP level of patients and increase the level of b-FGF in gingival sulcus fluid, which is beneficial to the control of severe periodontal inflammation.

Objective:To study the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on cytokines in gingival crevicular fluid of patients with severe periodontitis, and to analyze the effect of LLLT on periodontal inflammation control and bone healing.Methods:A total of 43 teeth from 18 patients with severe periodontitis were selected. There were no differences in age, gender, and periodontal status of all patients enrolled. 20 teeth in the control group received basic periodontal treatment, and 23 teeth in the experimental group were received combination of basic periodontal treatment and LLLT. During the LLLT treatment, the gingival pocket was irradiated by low-level laser for 15 s on days 1, 2, and 7. One and four weeks after treatment, the gingival crevicular fluid the patients in the control group and the experimental group was collected, and the interleukin-1β (IL-1β), transforming growth factor-β (TGF), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), metal matrix protease-8 (MMP-8), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and periosteal protein levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results:After treatments, the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, MMP-8 and sICAM-1 in the control group and the experimental group decreased, and the levels of TGF-β and periosteal protein increased. The basic periodontal treatment combined with LLLT had better therapeutic effect. One week after treatments, the differences in the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α between the two groups were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Four weeks after treatments, the differences in the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, TGF-β, MMP-8 and sICAM-1 between the two groups were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:LLLT treatment can effectively reduce the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and MMP-8 in the gingival crevicular fluid of patients with severe periodontitis in a short period of time. LLLT has a certain effect on the recovery of periodontal tissue, including controlling periodontal inflammation, reducing the expression of sICAM-1 in gingival crevicular fluid, alleviating the symptoms of gum bleeding, promoting the secretion of TGF-β, increasing the level of periosteal protein, and inhibiting the destruction of periodontal tissue.
