Direct Anterior Approach in Lateral Decubitus Position Versus Supine Position for Unilateral Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Comparative Study

ObjectiveTo compare the clinical efficacy of the direct anterior approach in lateral decubitus position (L‐DAA) and supine position (S‐DAA) for unilateral total hip arthroplasty.MethodsA retrospective study was conducted on 89 patients who underwent primary unilateral total hip arthroplasty in our department between August 2016 and December 2017. There were 46 patients who underwent L‐DAA and 43 patients who underwent S‐DAA. The body mass index (BMI), operation time, blood loss, preoperative Hb, first day and third day postoperative Hb, incision length, hospital stay, preoperative and postoperative Harris score, preoperative and postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score, radiological evaluation, intraoperative and postoperative complication, postoperative absolute length difference of lower extremity were recorded and analyzed. P < 0.05 was set as the significant difference.ResultsAll patients were followed up for 8–23 months, with an average of 15.6 months. No significant differences were found in preoperative and postoperative Harris scores, preoperative Hb, incision lengths, radiological evaluations, preoperative and postoperative VAS scores, and hospital stay (P > 0.05). However, significant differences were detected in BMI, blood loss, first day and third day postoperative Hb, and operation time (P < 0.05). There were no postoperative complications in the L‐DAA and S‐DAA groups. During the operation, two cases of proximal femoral fracture occurred in the L‐DAA group, four in the S‐DAA group, and the difference was statistically significant. There were significant differences found in the postoperative absolute length difference of lower extremity between the two groups.ConclusionCompared with the S‐DAA approach, the L‐DAA approach had the advantages of shorter operation time and less blood loss. Compared with S‐DAA, it was easier to expose the proximal femur, and lower BMI was required in L‐DAA. However, it was more difficult to compare the length of both lower extremities in the L‐DAA approach than in the S‐DAA approach.     

Akt/PKB activation in gastric carcinomas correlates with clinicopathologic variables and prognosis

Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) plays an important role in cell survival. However, the role of Akt in the biology of gastric cancer has not been well studied. We sought to investigate the expression of Akt or phosphorylated Akt (pAkt) in human gastric carcinomas and to analyze the relationship between Akt or pAkt and the clinicopathologic parameters. The expressions of Akt and pAkt were evaluated immunohistochemically in 311 gastric carcinomas using the tissue array method. Akt expression was detected in 74% of the tumors and pAkt expression in 78%. pAkt was highly expressed in the early stage of pTNM (p=0.011). We also found an inverse association between pAkt and lymphatic invasion (p=0.01) or lymph node metastasis (p=0.008). pAkt expression was significantly correlated with a higher survival in patients with stage I carcinomas (p=0.0003). Interestingly, combined evaluation revealed that the group with pAkt-positive and lymph node-negative carcinomas showed a better prognosis than the other groups (p<0.0001). In addition, pAkt was shown to correlate positively with APC (p=0.002) and Smad4 (p<0.0001) expression. These findings suggest that pAkt expression may help to predict the clinical outcome of gastric cancer patients.     

蛇毒抗栓酶对氧自由基致血小板变化的影响

次黄嘌呤／黄嘌呤氧化酶体系产生的氧自由基在体外能明显增加血中板膜微粘度，脂质过氧化代射产物丙二醛含量，血小板胞内游离钙浓度和血小板５－羟色胺的释放量。０．０３ｕ／ｍｌ的蛇毒抗栓酶明显抑制前二种效应，但促进血小板释放５－羟色胺，增加血小板胞内游离钙浓度，结果表明蛇毒抗栓酶对血小板膜有保护作用。

小鼠补体受体Ⅱ型基因改造后感染EB病毒

通过对小鼠补体受体Ⅱ型基因（CR2）进行定点突变,然后将野生型和突变型小鼠CR2/1（MCR2/1）及人CR2（hCR2)用电穿孔方法导入小鼠SP2/0进行表达,采用免疫组织化学等方法鉴定阳性细胞系。用EB病毒对转染阳性细胞进行感染,EBER-1杂交结果显示,仅转染hCR2和突变型MCR2（mtMCR2)的SP2/0细胞感染了EB病毒,前者感染EB病毒的阳性率较后者高很多。这为进一步研究EB病毒进入细胞的机制及建立EB病毒相关的鼻咽癌动物模型奠定了良好的基础。

肾上腺切除对强迫游泳大鼠吗啡成瘾行为的影响

为探索应激和肾上腺切除在药物成瘾行为中的作用机制 , 将40只雄性Wista r大鼠随机分为肾上腺切除组、糖皮质激素Ⅰ组(肾上腺切除+氢化考的松20mg/kg)、糖皮质激素Ⅱ组(肾上腺切除+氢化考的松40mg/kg)及生理盐水对照组,每组各10只, 观察肾上腺切除及给予糖皮质激素对强迫游泳大鼠条件性位置偏爱形成的影响.结果: ①肾上腺切除组动物在药物搭配侧箱体中停留的时间与在对侧箱体中停留时间相比无明显差异(t=1.84 , P＞0.05),而其它3组中均存在显著性差异(P＜0.05或P＜0.01);②与其它3 组相比,肾上腺切除组动物在药物搭配侧箱体中停留时间明显缩短,而其它3组之间则无明显差异.由此表明,切除肾上腺能够减弱强迫游泳对大鼠吗啡条件性位置偏爱的强化作用, 而给予外源性糖皮质激素能够逆转这种作用.
