Total knee arthroplasty， as a common treatment option for advanced knee osteoarthritis， can alleviate the clinical symptoms of patients. Deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity is the most common complication of total knee arthroplasty. Previous studies have shown that the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis after total knee arthroplasty is mostly related to the overexpression of inflammatory factors in vivo. Nuclear transcription factor-κB， Toll-like receptor 4， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B， tumor necrosis factor， and nuclear transcription factor E₂-related factor 2 are typical signaling pathways related to inflammation. Regulating the expression of the signaling pathways can intervene the formation of inflammatory factors. Inhibiting the formation of inflammatory factors can help suppress the activation of platelets， thereby blocking thrombosis. According to previous research， Chinese medicine monomers， Chinese medicine extract， and compound Chinese medicine prescriptions all directly or indirectly inhibit the expression of inflammatory factors by regulating the above signaling pathways， thereby suppressing the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis after total knee arthroplasty. Therefore， Chinese medicine can reduce postoperative complications and promote postoperative recovery of patients at low cost with small side effects. This article summarizes the research on Chinese medicine intervention on deep vein thrombosis-related signaling pathways after total knee arthroplasty， which is expected to lay a basis for the in-depth study and clinical application of Chinese medicine in deep vein thrombosis.

Objective:The efficacy of using a single electrical or magnetic stimulation for treating pelvic floor dysfunction is limited.This study aims to investigate the efficacy of radiofrequency combined with magnetic stimulation treatment for mild to moderate pelvic organ prolapse. Methods:Patients who completed the treatment in the Third Xiangya Hospital,Central South University were screened,and were divided into 2 groups based on different treatment plans.There were 28 patients who completed magnetic stimulation therapy(the magnetic stimulation therapy group)and 21 patients who completed radiofrequency combined with magnetic stimulation therapy(the combined treatment group).The pelvic organ prolapse quantitation(POP-Q),pelvic floor muscle strength,and pelvic floor ultrasound results were analyzed to assess the efficacy before and after the treatment in both groups,and the POP-Q results of 3 months after the treatment were used to evaluate the maintenance effect of the treatment mode. Results:The POP-Q evaluation results of Aa,Ap,and C points after the treatment in both groups were better than those before the treatment,with statistical significance(all P＜0.05).The Aa point POP-Q result of the combined treatment group was better than that of the magnetic stimulation therapy group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Pelvic floor ultrasound evaluation showed that the bladder neck position during the valsalva maneuver in the combined treatment group was higher than that in the magnetic stimulation treatment group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The persistence effect of the combined treatment group was long better than that of the magnetic stimulation treatment group,with significant statistical significance(P＜0.01). Conclusion:The combined treatment is more effective and has a longer lasting effect than single magnetic stimulation treatment.

Objective To evaluate mechanical comprehensive performance of the flexible neural electrode with coating modification, so as to provide references for optimal design of the electrode and coating parameters. Methods Simplified mechanical models were established for the contact phase, implantation phase and micromotion phase. The electrode material was polyimide, the coating material was PEG, and PDMS mold injection method was selected as the coating method. The coating thickness gradients were set as 40, 80, 120, 160 and 200 μm, respectively, and the three factors (the critical load, the maximum total deformation and the maximum strain of brain tissues) were comprehensively evaluated. Results As the thickness increased, the critical load increased, the maximum total deformation and the maximum strain of brain tissues decreased, but meanwhile, the strain area of brain tissues increased. For consideration of equilibrium for three factors, 200 μm was chosen as optimal thickness of the coating. At this thickness, the critical load was 17.9 mN, the maximum total deformation was 10.1 μm, and the maximum strain of brain tissues was 0.011 4. Conclusions The coating thickness had a great influence on mechanical properties of the neural electrode. The optimal parameters could be selected by setting influencing factors from the mechanical performance factors under specific case. The optimal parameter selection of coating can improve the electrode performance, which is of great significance for clinical application of the neural electrode.

Objective To explore the expression and significance of miR-21 in patients with primary gout. Methods The patients were divided into 4 groups: 35 acute gout patients (AG), 50 intermittent gout patients (IG), 25 chronic gout patients (CG) and 39 healthy patients. Their peripheral blood were collected and laboratory indexes were recorded. The expression of miR-21 and Nod-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) mRNA in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The blood and clinical data of another 5 healthy volunteers were collected, their peripheral blood was stimulated with 100 μg/ml monosodium urate (MSU) for 1 hour, pho-sphate buffer (PBS) was used as controls, then the expression of microRNA (miR)-21, NLRP3, interleukin (IL)-1β mRNA was detected by RT-qPCR. Rank sum test and spearman correlation analysis were used for data analysis. Results In primary gout patients, the expression of miR-21 in AG [12 ×10-4 (8.0 ×10-4)], IG [9.4 ×10-4 (6.9 ×10-4)], CG [7.3 ×10-4 (5.6 ×10-4)] was significantly higher than that in healthy control group [1.0×10-4(2.0×10-4)] (Z=9.83, P=0.02], while the expression of NLRP3 in AG[0.0444(0.0233)], IG[0.0581(0.0326)], CG[0.0314(0.0198)] was significantly lower than that in healthy control group [0.0886(0.0359)] (Z=13.82, P<0.01). In the primary gout of IG group, the expression of miR-21 was positively correlated with NLRP3 mRNA (r=0.449, P=0.016). After stimulated by 100 μg/ml MSU, the expression of miR-21 of the stimulated group [8.78×10-4(14×10-4)] was higher than that in the control group [6.25×10-4(6×10-4)](Z=-2.203, P<0.05), and the expression of IL-1βin stimulated group [3.06(2.00)] was higher than that in the control group [2.64 (1.22] (Z=-2.203, P<0.05). The level of miR-21 in patients with primary gout was positively correlated with the level of uric acid (UA), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (AST) and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (ALT) (r=0.473, 0.639, 0.487, P<0.05). Conclusion The increase of miR-21 in patients with primary gout may be involved in the inflammatory reaction of gout.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical efficacy differences between different needling methods for dry eye syndrome.

METHODSSixty patients of dry eye syndrome were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 30 cases (60 eyes) in each group. Shangjingming (Extra), Xiajingming (Extra), Tongziliao (GB 1), Cuanzhu (BL 2), Fengchi (GB 20), Hegu (LI 4), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Taixi (KI 3) and Taichong (LR 3) were selected in the two groups. The control group was treated with conventional acupuncture, while the observation group was treated with guiding-acupuncture. Electroacupuncture (EA) was used at bilateral Tongziliao (GB1) and Cuanzhu (BL 2), 30 min per treatment. The treatment was given three times per week. Totally 1-month treatment (12 treatments) was given. The eye symptom score, breakup time of tear film (BUT), Schirmer Ⅰ test (SⅠT) and visual analogue scale (VAS) score were compared before and after treatment in the two groups. The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups.

RESULTSCompared before treatment, the eye symptom score, BUT, SⅠT and VAS score were improved after treatment in the two groups (all<0.001); the improvements of eye symptom score and SⅠT in the observation group were superior to those in the control group (both<0.05). The differences of BUT and VSA score between the two groups were not significant (both>0.05). The total effective rate was 86.7% (52/60) in the observation group, which was superior to 73.3% (44/60) in the control group (<0.05). .

CONCLUSIONThe conventional EA and guiding-acupuncture combined with EA are both effective for dry eye syndrome, and the efficacy of guiding-acupuncture combined with EA is superior to that of conventional EA.

Objective: To detect the expression of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) in oral mucosa with ulcer in rabbits. Methods: 72 New Zealand rabbits(with the weight of 3 000-3 500 g) were randomly divided into control group,model group,and treatment group(n = 24). 1,3,5 and 7 d after treatment buccal mucous membrane tissues of the rabbits were respectively taken from the 3 groups. The models of oral ulcer were examined by HE staining. The expression of bFGF mRNA was detected by RTPCR. The expression of bFGF protein was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results: The oral ulcer model of the rabbits was successfully established. Both RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry analyses showed that 1-7 d after treatment the expression levels of bFGF mRNA and protein were higher in treatment group than in model group(P ＜ 0. 05) and control group(P ＜ 0. 05),3-7 d after treatment were higher than in model group(P＞ 0. 05). Conclusion: bFGF may be a new therapeutic target for oral ulcer.

To explore the risk factors for and the pathogenic mechanisms of pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence.
 Methods: A total of 2 668 females who completed pelvic floor functional detection from July 2014 to October 2015 in the Physical Examination Center of the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. The patients were divide into 4 groups: an urinary incontinence group, an organ prolapse group, an organ prolapse with urinary incontinence group, and a normal group. We compared the age, BMI, menopause, gravidity and parity, delivery pattern, the coordination of pelvic floor and abdominal muscles among the 4 groups.
 Results: There were statistical differences in age and BMI values among the 4 groups (P<0.05).There were statistical differences in menopause rate, gravidity and parity history among the normal group and the other 3 groups (P<0.05), and between the organ prolapse group and the organ prolapse with urinary incontinence group (P<0.05). However, the urinary incontinence group was not statistically different from the organ prolapse group and the normal group (P>0.05). In the mode of delivery, there were statistical difference among the normal group and the other 3 groups (P<0.05), and between the organ prolapse group with urinary incontinence group and the organ prolapse or the urinary incontinence group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the urinary incontinence group and the organ prolapse group (P>0.05). Among the 4 groups, the normal group was the best one in coordination between pelvic floor and abdominal muscles, following by the organ prolapse group, the pelvic organ prolapse group and the urinary incontinence group.
 Conclusion: Aging, menopause, number of pregnancies and delivery, BMI, and mode of delivery all affect the occurrence of pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence. Females with urinary incontinence or organ prolapse are not good in coordination between the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles.

Objective To investigate the role of long noncoding RNA-AJ227913 in the pathogenesis of primary gout arthritis (GA). Methods The subjects were divided into three groups:30 acute gout patients (AGA), 30 non-acute gout patients (NAGA), 30 healthy controlsand 30 hyperuricemia patients (HUA). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was employed to examine the expression of AJ227913 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) from four groups. 100 μg/ml monosodium urate (MSU) was used to stimulate the peripheral blood of NAGA and healthy controls patients. Then the expression ofAJ227913 was detected by RT-qPCR. Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney test, Spearman correlations were used for statistical analysis. Results The expression level of AJ227913 in the AGA group (0.0557 ±0.0156) was higher than that in the NAGA group (0.0223±0.018) and healthy controls group (0.0038±0.0013). There was significant difference between the NAGA group and healthy controls group (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the expression of AJ227913 in NAGA group which were stimulated by MSU was significantly increased. The Spearman correlation analysis found that the AJ227913 expression levels in GA groups were correlated with UREA (r=0.608, P<0.01), CREA (r=0.337, P<0.05), CYSC (r=0.422, P<0.01). Conclusion Altered expression of AJ227913 may be involved in the inflammatory process of GA and the balance of uricacid.
