BACKGROUND: With the prevalence of total knee arthroplasty, periprosthetic joint infection as a serious complication has been an issue of concern.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the advances in the diagnosis and treatment of infection after total knee arthroplasty.METHODS: The first author searched the PubMed and CNKI databases for the literatures related to the diagnosis and treatment of infection after total knee arthroplasty using the keywords of total knee arthroplasty,infection in English and Chinese, respectively. The repetitive articles were excluded, and the risk factors,diagnosis, classification and treatment of infection after total knee arthroplasty were summarized.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The infection after artificial knee replacement is closely related to the patient's preoperative condition, operation skills and postoperative status. (2) Diagnosis of infection is based on the detailed understanding of the patients' situation and complete auxiliary examinations. (3) The treatment methods include antibiotics, debridement and retention, reversion, arthrodesis, as well as amputation. (4) Periprosthetic infection is a serious complication after total knee arthroplasty, and early diagnosis and treatment are critical. Furthermore,choosing an appropriate individualized treatment scheme for different patients is important.

Objective To explore the mechanism of protecting cells from ischemic reperfusion injury by constructing specific small interference RNA (siRNA) to inhibit Na+-H+exchanger-1 (NHE-1) expression in human renal tubular epithelial cell (HKC). Methods The siRNA was designed and synthesized based on human NHE-1 complete sequence,and was transfected into HKC.The irrespective siRNA transfected group was used as control.The cells were treated with 10 μmol/L antimyein A to induce ischemia and anoxyaemia environment.NHE-1expression was examined by RT-PCR and Western blot.The intraeellular pH (pHi),Ca2+ or Na+ concentrations were detected by BCECF/AM,Fluo-3/AM and SBFI-AM,respectively,combining with laser eonfocal assay system.Nucleic morphology was determined by Hoechst 33342.Cellular apoptosis was examined by Annexin V/PI staining and flow eytometry.Fluorescent probe JC-1 was used to detect the change of mitechondrial transmembrane potential. Results The specific siRNA could efficiently inhibit NHE-1 expression in HKC.Compared with the irrespective siRNA transfected group,the mRNA and protein expression of NHE-1 was significantly down-regulated in NHE-1 siRNA transfeeted group (all P＜0.05).After treatment with antimyein A,the mRNA and protein expression of NHE-1 was significantly up-regulated in both groups,however,it was less than that in irrespective siBNA transfected group.At the same time,the ratio of apoptosis decreased (8.9% +2.9% vs 18.8%±3.2% , 17.4%±3.6% ,P＜0.05) and mitochondrial transmembrane potential rose significantly in NHE-1 siRNA transfected group as compared to irrespective siRNA transfected group and antimycin A group.The intracellular Na+,H+ and Ca2+concentrations increased in NHE-1 siRNA transfected group treated with antimyein A,but their levels were lower than those in irrespective siRNA transfected group with the same treatment(P＜0.05). Conclusions The synthesized siBNA can inhibit the expression of NHE-1 and can protect HKC from isehemia reperfasion injury induced by antimyein A.The mechanism might be via suppressing the expression of NHE-1 to delay intracelluar Na+ accumulation,attenuate intracellular Ca2+ overloading,and inhibit the decrease of mitechondrion transmembrane potential and reduce cellular apoptosis.
