The computer navigated total knee arthroplasty can make the force line more precise after replacement. But there exist many problems according to the reports at home and abroad, especial y the life and prosthesis and time for revision, those are the fatal factors for the patients. But minimal y invasive surgery is the developing trend of orthopedic surgery.

Objective To analyzes the CT manifestations of pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (PLCH). Methods CT features of 11 patients with PLCH proved pathologically were analyzed retrospectively. Results The main findings in 11 PLCHs were cysts and nodules. Two cases only had cysts,and 1 only had nodules, which most had cavitations. The other 8 cases showed cysts and nodules with 4 cases mainly manifested with cysts and nine mainly manifested with nodules. Two cases had pulmonary interstitial changes. One case only had cysts in the left upper lung field and 10 cases had lesions not only in the upper and middle but in the lower lung field, which 2 cases had more lesions in the lower and costophrenic angle field and 8 cases had less lesions in the costo-phrenic angle field. Three of these 8 cases had more lesions in the superior lobe and apical segment of lower lobe. Conclusion CT manifestations of PLCH are helpful for the early diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in the curative effect and prognosis of breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Methods The clinical data of 304 breast cancer patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy in Beijing Cancer Hospital during 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.The correlations of baseline NLR with clinicopathological parameters of breast cancer patients were analyzed by Wilcox or Kruskal-Wallis tests,and the correlation of NLR with pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy was analyzed by the binary logistic regression.The effect of clinic pathological parameters on the disease-free survival(DFS) of the patients was evaluated by the univariable and muhivariable Cox regression models.Results The medians of NLR in pCR + patients (n =62) and pCR-patients (n =242) were 1.76 and 1.72,respectively,and there was no significant difference between themn (P ＞ 0.05).Multivariate analysis indicated that the TNM stage (P ＜ 0.05) and pCR (P ＜ 0.05) were the independent risk factors influencing the prognosis of breast cancer patients.There was no significant correlation between NLR and 5-year DFS (HR=0.842,95％CI=0.566-1.255,P＞0.05).Condusion NLR lacks the predictive value in the curative effect and prognosis of breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy,while TNM stage and pCR are the independent risk factors influencing the prognosis of breast cancer patients.

Objective To investigate dynamic change of cadmium body burden and renal dysfunction among residents living in cadmium?polluted areas. Methods From April to July of 2011, the cadmium?polluted areas of northern Guangdong province in China was chosen as the study site. Based on the levels of cadmium pollution in soil and rice, the survey areas were divided into low exposed group (average concentration of cadmium was 0.15-0.40 mg/kg, 0.5-1.0 mg/kg in rice and soil, respectively) and high exposed group (average concentration of cadmium was >0.40 mg/kg, >1.0 mg/kg in rice and soil, respectively). Stratified random sampling and cluster sampling method of epidemiological investigations were carried out among 414 local residents who lived in cadmium exposure areas for more than 15 years, aged above 40, and without occupational cadmium exposure, including 168 and 246 residents in low and high exposed group, respectively. From March to June of 2014, 305 respondents of those who participated in 2011 were successfully traced, including 116 and 189 respondents in low and high exposed group, respectively. We used health questionnaires to acquire their health status. Home?harvested rice and vegetable samples were collected using quartering method for detection of cadmium level, including 190 rice samples, 161 vegetable samples in 2011 and 190 rice samples, 153 vegetable samples in 2014. Urine specimens of residents were collected for the detection of urinary cadmium and creatinine as well as renal dysfunction biomarkers, namely, N?acetyl?beta?D?glucosamidase (NAG) andβ2?microglobulin (β2?MG), respectively. In 2011 and 2014, Chi?square test was used to investigate the differences of abnormality of cadmium concentration in rice, vegetables and urinary cadmium,β2?MG,and NAG that were expressed as odds ratio (OR) and 95%confidence intervals (95%CI). Results In 2011 and 2014, cadmium concentration P50 (P25-P75) in rice was 0.43 (0.17-1.10) mg/kg,and 0.42 (0.20-1.14) mg/kg, respectively (Z=-0.77, P=0.440). In 2011 and 2014, cadmium concentrations P50 (P25-P75) in vegetables were 0.13 (0.07-0.34) mg/kg,and 0.25 (0.12-0.59) mg/kg, respectively, with abnormal rates of 38.5%(62/161) and 60.8%(93/153), respectively. In 2014, both average concentration and abnormal rate of cadmium in vegetables were higher than those in 2011 (Z=-4.69,P<0.001 andχ2=15.58, P<0.001). Concentrations of urinary cadmium P50 (P25-P75) in high exposed group were 7.90 (3.96-14.91)μg/g creatinine, 8.64 (4.56-17.60)μg/g creatinine in 2011 and 2014, respectively. Contrary to that in 2011, urinary cadmium of high exposed group was significantly increased in 2014 (Z=-2.80 ,P=0.005). In 2011 and 2014, concentrations of β2?MG, NAG P50 (P25-P75) were 0.15 (0.07-0.29)μg/g creatinine, 0.15 (0.07-0.45)μg/g creatinine,and 7.12 (5.05-10.65) U/g creatinine, 13.55 (9.1-19.84) U/g creatinine, respectively, with abnormal rates of 7.5% (23/305), 15.1% (46/305) ,8.2%(25/305) , and 33.8% (103/305), respectively. Compared with baseline in 2011, average concentrations ofβ2?MG, NAG significantly increased in 2014 (Z=-2.263,P=0.024 and Z=-12.52,P<0.001), and abnormal rates ofβ2?MG, NAG were also higher in 2014 (χ2=15.61,P<0.001 andχ2=64.72,P<0.001), with odds ratio (OR) of 2.00 (95%CI:1.23-3.24) and 4.12 (95%CI:2.87-5.92). Conclusion Environmental cadmium pollution of crops such as rice and vegetables in survey areas continued to remain high. Body burden of cadmium might kept at sustainably high levels and renal dysfunction was worsened after continuous, long?term cadmium exposure. Our results suggested that NAG might be more sensitive than β2?MG to serve as an indicator for an individual's future tubular function.
