BACKGROUND:Some patients still have unsatisfactory improvement of operative limb fatigue and pain after total knee arthroplasty.Clinical findings show that Jianpi Yiqi Huoxue Formula can promote recovery after total knee arthroplasty,but the specific efficacy remains to be studied. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of Jianpi Yiqi Huoxue Formula on the muscle strength and pain of the operated limb after the primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:A total of 74 patients undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty were randomly divided into a trial group and a control group with 37 patients in each group.All patients received the same prostheses and surgical methods during the operation.Patients in the control group were treated with routine analgesics,anticoagulant drugs and functional exercise after the operation.The trial group received Jianpi Yiqi Huoxue Formula after the treatment in the control group.Both groups were treated continuously and followed up for 1 month.The changes in isokinetic muscle strength(peak torque and total work amount of extensor and flexor),visual analog scale score and the hospital for special surgery score of the two groups were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The trial group had better improvement in peak torque and total work amount of extensor and flexor and the hospital for special surgery score than the control group 14 days and 1 month after surgery(P<0.05).(2)In contrast to the control group,the visual analog scale score of the trial group improved better at 7 and 14 days and 1 month after surgery(P<0.05).(3)It is indicated that Jianpi Yiqi Huoxue Formula can effectively improve the muscle strength of the operated limb,enhance the degree of postoperative joint pain,and promote functional rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of radiation pneumonitis (RP) induced by 125I seed implantation for the treatment of malignant lung tumors and analyze related dosimetric parameters. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 31 cases of malignant lung tumors treated with 125I seed implantation from January 2017 to December 2022 at Hebei Provincial Tumor Radioactive Seeds Implantation Diagnosis and Treatment Center. These cases consisted of eight patients with squamous cell carcinoma, 10 patients with adenocarcinoma, and 13 patients with metastatic cancer in other sites. At 1-6 months after treatment, these patients received postoperative chest CT scans, with the efficacy evaluated based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1), including the objective response rate (ORR) and the disease control rate (DCR). The efficacy of RP was evaluated using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) criteria. Postoperative dosimetric parameters, including D90 (minimum peripheral dose received by 90% of the target volume), V8 (percentage of lung volume receiving 8 Gy), V32 (percentage of lung volume receiving 32 Gy), and Dmean (mean radiation dose) of the affected lung, were statistically analyzed. The relationships of the RP occurrence with postoperative D90, V8, V32, and Dmean were analyzed by comparison with relevant external radiotherapy data, to identify the parameters that are correlated closely with RP occurrence. Results:All the patients underwent successful surgeries. The postoperative efficacy evaluation after six months showed complete response (CR) in 11 cases, partial response (PR) in 11 cases, stable disease (SD) in eight cases, and progressive disease (PD) in one case, with an overall response rate (ORR) of 71.0%, and a disease control rate (DCR) of 96.8%. Three patients suffered RP, with an incidence rate of 9.7%. Postoperative V8, V32, and Dmean could not serve as predictive indicators for RP. Follow-up observation revealed that three RP cases (3/5) exhibited postoperative D90 exceeding 170 Gy and no RP cases (0/26) showed postoperative D90 below 170 Gy. Conclusions:In the treatment of malignant lung tumors with 125I seed implantation, there is a certain correlation between RP and postoperative D90, while there is no correlation between it and V8, V32, and Dmean.
