The patient was a 29-year-old male with a history of hemophilia for more than 10 years. After 6 hours of botulinum toxin injection into the masseter muscle, the redness and swelling of the right face gradually worsened, accompanied by local pain, and restricted mouth opening, etc. The hematoma was absorbed and the swelling subsided significantly after the infusion of coagulation factor Ⅸ. Such cases of large-scale hematomas after botulinum toxin injection in hemophiliacs is rarely reported. This article summarized the diagnosis and treatment process of this case and combines with literature review to provide clinical experience for diagnosis, treatment and prevention of similar complications.

Objective To observe the temporary loss(re-falling)of knee range of motion(ROM)during rehabilitation after arthroly-sis for post-traumatic knee stiffness,and analyze the factors related to it. Methods From July,2016 to September,2019,64 patients(68 knees)in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital accepted minimally inva-sive arthrolysis for post-traumatic knee stiffness,and were followed up for twelve months.ROM of flexion and extension of knee was measured before operation,and one,six and twelve weeks,and six and twelve months af-ter operation;while they were asssessed with Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score(HSS).Multivariate Logis-tic regression was performed on re-falling. Results The ROM and HSS score improved as a whole after operation;however,HSS score improved constantly,but ROM decreased six weeks after operation compared with that one weeks after operation,involving 46 knees of 44 cases.Arthrolysis longer than 12 months from primary injuries,multiple complicated fracture and history of infection were the risk factors for re-falling(OR＞8.058,P＜0.05). Conclusion Minimally invasive arthrolysis is effective on knee function after arthrolysis for post-traumatic knee stiff-ness.However,re-falling of ROM may happen during rehabilitation.Delay of operation,multiple complicated fracture and history of infection may increase the risk of re-falling.

Objective To investigate the role of TRIM65 on DSS induced colitis and the underlying molecular mechanisms. Methods Trim65+/+ and Trim65-/- mice were administered with 3% (w/v) DSS in their drinking water for 5 consecutive days and then were switched to sterile water for 2 days. DSS treated mice were monitored daily for the clinical symptoms (bodyweight, stool consistency and rectal bleeding score). Mice were sacrificed on day 7 to measure colon length. Colon homogenates were collected to measure MPO activity and detect cleaved caspase-1 and mature IL-1β by Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blot. Trim65-/- mice were intraperitoneally injected with NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor MCC950, and were given the above treatment to determine the effect of MCC950 on colitis in Trim65-/- mice. Results The results showed that deletion of Trim65 significantly enhanced weight loss and colon shortening in DSS mice, increased disease activity index and histopathological score, induced the activity of MPO, and promoted the F4/80+ immune cell infiltration, the activation of caspase-1 and the secretion of mature IL-1 in the colon of DSS mice. The NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor MCC950 alleviated DSS induced colitis symptoms and inflammation levels in trim65 deficient mice. Conclusion TRIM65 plays an anti-inflammatory role in DSS induced colitis mice by inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of children's lower extremity amputation and amputation rehabilitation, and to explain the causes of children's amputation and the complications after amputation. MethodsFrom January, 2016 to March, 2021, 51 amputation related children were retrospectively analyzed. The correlation between the cause of amputation and complications post amputation were analyzed. ResultsTraumatic amputations accounted for 58.82%, and the main cause was traffic accidents (70%). Amputations caused by diseases accounted for 41.18%, and the main cause was congenital limb deformities (80.95%). Traumatic amputation was more likely to have stump complications than expected (P < 0.05). The possibility of stump complications after disease-specific amputation was lower than expected (P < 0.05). ConclusionTraffic trauma is the main cause of amputation in children and is characterized clinically by a high incidence of unsatisfactory stumps, mainly due to soft tissue abnormalities, and most cases require stump revision to improve the poor residuals for prosthetic restoration of ambulation. Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia is the main cause of disease-specific amputation, and the outcome of amputation often cannot be definitely avoided even after long-term limb preservation treatment.

ObjectiveTo conduct a systematic review of the susceptibility gene polymorphism sites of primary knee osteoarthritis (PKO). MethodsThe literature on genetic susceptibility and gene polymorphisms of PKO were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and China Biomedical Literature Database from establishment of the library to December, 2020, and systematically reviewed. ResultsA total of 42 papers on the polymorphism sites of human PKO susceptibility genes were included, involving cellular signaling pathways related to PKO pathogenesis, including inflammatory response, receptor signaling pathway, transcription factor signaling pathway, bone-related signaling pathway, etc. Multiple gene polymorphism sites located in inflammatory factor genes, chemokine genes, Toll-like receptor genes, transcription factor genes, obesity-related genes, and bone-related genes. ConclusionInflammatory factor genes and bone-associated allele polymorphisms are likely to be related to PKO susceptibility.

Objective:To evaluate the role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor-antisense long-chain non-coding RNA (BDNF-AS) in amygdala in the development of neuropathic pain (NP) in rats.Methods:Healthy clean-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 2 months, weighing 200-260 g, were used to develop NP model via ligation of left L 5-6 spinal nerve, while control group was only subjected to the exposure of L 5-6 spinal nerve without ligation.This study was performed in two parts.Experiment Ⅰ Fifty-six rats were divided into 3 groups by the random number table method: sham operation group (Sham group, n=8), NP group ( n=24) and BDNF ( n=24). In BDNF group, exogenous BDNF was injected into bilateral amygdala at 1, 3, 6, 13 and 20 days after development of the model, with 100 pmol at each side.Eight rats were sacrificed at 7, 14 and 21 days after the model was developed in NP and BDNF groups and after the model was developed in Sham group, the brains were removed, and the amygdala was isolated for determination of the BDNF content (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), the number of BDNF-positive cells (by immunohistochemistry), and expression of BDNF-AS (by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction). Experiment Ⅱ Thirty-two rats were divided into 4 groups ( n=8 each) using the random number table method: Sham operation group, NP group, BDNF group and siRNA group.At 1, 3, 6, 13 and 20 days after development of the model, exogenous BDNF 100 pmol and siRNA-BDNF-AS 50 nmol were injected into the amygdala at each side in BDNF group and siRNA group, respectively.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured before development of the model (T 0) and at 4, 7, 14 and 21 days after development of the model (T 1-4). After the last behavioral test was completed, the rats were sacrificed, and the spinal cord tissues were collected to measure the contents of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Results:Experiment Ⅰ Compared with Sham group, the content of BDNF and the number of BDNF positive cells were significantly decreased, and the expression of BDNF-AS was up-regulated at each time point after development of the model in group NP ( P<0.05). Compared with NP group, the content of BDNF and the number of BDNF positive cells were significantly increased, and the expression of BDNF-AS was down-regulated at each time point after development of the model in group NP ( P<0.05). Experiment Ⅱ Compared with Sham group, MWT was significantly decreased and TWL was shortened at T 1-4, and the contents of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were increased in NP, BDNF and siRNA groups ( P<0.05). Compared with NP group, MWT was significantly increased and TWL was prolonged at T 1-4, and the contents of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were decreased in BDNF and siRNA groups ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism underlying the development of NP may be related to the up-regulation of BDNF-AS expression in amygdala, inhibition of BDNF synthesis and promotion of inflammatory responses in the spinal cord of rats.

Hemophilia B is a genetic disorder caused by coagulation factor Ⅸ(FⅨ) deficiency, mainly manifesting as joint, muscle and deep tissue bleeding. Hemophilia pseudotumor is a mass formed by soft tissue liquefaction and necrosis caused by repeated bleeding. Most pseudotumors occur in the bone and muscle. We report a case of hemophilia B with pseudotumor formation in the pelvis and abdomen, where lesion location is relatively rare. After active and effective hemostasis, the patient's hematuria symptom gradually improved. This case suggests that early and timely hemostatic treatment is crucial for patients with hemophilia.

Objective    To analyze the diagnosis and treatment of patients with ventricular septal defect complicated with infective endocarditis. Methods    We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 40 patients with ventricular septal defect complicated with infective endocarditis in our hospital from 2001 to 2016. There were 25 males and 15 females, aged 20-62 (39.92±11.16) years. They were divided into two groups according to the duration from admission to surgery: a group A (an early operation group whose surgery was performed within 7 days after admission) and a group B (a conventional treatment group with the duration from admission to surgery>7 days). Among them, there were 27 patients in the group A including 15 males and 12 females with an average age of 39.56±11.80 years, and 13 patients in the group B including 10 males and 3 females with an average age of 40.69±10.13 years. All patients were examined by echocardiogram and blood bacterial culture to investigate their etiology, echocardiogram results and treatment status. And the clinical data of the two groups were compared. Results    Two patients died before operation in the group B, one died of heart failure, and one cerebral infarction. No reoperation during hospitalization, cerebral infarction, thromboembolism or other complications occurred. The ventilation time in the group A was significantly shorter than that in the group B (18.00±14.85 h vs. 31.00±29.57 h, P=0.015). There was no statistical difference in the extracorporeal circulation time, myocardial block time, or postoperative hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05). After discharge, the patients continued antibiotic therapy for 3-6 weeks. Patients were followed up for 12-127 (75.74±6.01) months, 1 died of malignant tumors in the group A, 1 developed atrial fibrillation and 1 developed cardiac insufficiency in the group B, and the rest of patients did not complain of obvious discomfort. There was no residual shunt, recurrence of infective endocarditis, reoperation, postoperative stroke or thromboembolism. Conclusion    Preoperative echocardio-graphy and blood bacteriological culture are helpful for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with ventricular septal defect complicated with infective endocarditis. Early surgery is safe and effective for these patients, and can improve the long-term survival rate.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the effects of curcumin on bone metabolism balance in ovariectomized osteoporosis model rats ，and to investigate its potential mechanism. METHODS ：Totally female Wistar rats were randomly divided into blank group（group A ），model group （group B ），estradiol group [group C （positive control ），estradiol valerate 50 μg（/ kg·d）]， curcumin low-dose ，medium-dose and high-dose groups [group D-F ，55，110，165 μg（/ kg·d）]，with 15 rats in each group. Except for group A ，other rats were ovariectomized to establish osteoporosis model. After modeling ，group A and B were given normal saline intrgastrically ，and administration groups were given relevant medicine intrgastrically 30 mL/kg，once a day ，for consecutive 12 weeks. The contents of serum bone metabolism markers [BALP ，CBF-α1，CTX-Ⅰ，PINP and OC] were determined by ELISA. The bone mineral density （BMD）and trabecular structure indexes [relative bone volume fraction （BV/TV），trabecular number （Tb.N），trabecular thickness （Tb.Th），connectivity density （Conn. D ），trabecular separation （Tb.Sp）and structure model index （SMI）] were determined by micro CT imaging system. The mRNA and protein expression of OPG and RANKL in hypothalamus and femur were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting assay. RESULTS ：Compared with group A ，the contents of serum bone metabolism markers ，BMD，BV/TV，Tb.N，Tb.Th，Conn.D，mRNA and protein expression of OPG were decreased significantly in group B ，while Tb.Sp ，SMI，mRNA and protein expression of RANKL were increased significantly @qq.com （P＜0.05）. Compared with group B ，the contents of serum bone metabolism markers ，BMD，BV/TV，Tb.N，Tb.Th，Conn.D，mRNA and protein expression of OPG were increased significantly in administration groups ；Tb.Sp，SMI，mRNA and protein expression of RANKL were decreased significantly ，in a dose-dependent manner among curcumin groups （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：Curcumin can improve the level of bone metabolism，increase BMD ，improve the trabecular microstructure and inhibit bone absorption in ovariectomized osteoporosis model rats. Its mechanism may be related to the regulation of OPG/RANKL signaling pathway.
