Capsular Management in Direct Anterior Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Randomized,Single-Blind,Controlled Trial

BackgroundThe direct anterior approach (DAA) is a popular approach to total hip arthroplasty (THA). Unlike the posterior approach, the importance of anterior capsular management is unknown. This randomized controlled trial compares capsular repair versus capsulectomy.MethodsThis single-surgeon, single-blinded, parallel-group randomized controlled trial occurred between 2013 and 2016. Patients undergoing unilateral, primary THA for osteoarthritis consented to undergo blinded, simple randomization to anterior capsulotomy with repair or anterior capsulectomy. Primary outcome measures included hip range of motion, hip flexion strength, and pain with seated hip flexion. Secondary outcome measures included surgical time, estimated blood loss, postoperative complications, and hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score. Data were prospectively collected intraoperatively, six weeks, six months, an average of over 5 years postoperatively.ResultsNinety-eight patients were ultimately enrolled in the trial; 50 received capsulectomy and 48 received capsulotomy. No significant differences were seen in preoperative demographics or in primary or secondary outcomes during this study. No difference was seen in pain at final follow-up at average > 5 years postoperatively.ConclusionThis study demonstrates that capsular management in DAA THA does not affect postoperative pain or range of motion. The anterior capsule’s role in prosthetic stability after DAA THA remains uncertain, but it does not currently appear that repair provides benefit and may lead to increased surgical time and blood loss. As such, capsular management in DAA THA is at surgeon discretion.

《伤寒论》六经辨证在IgA肾病诊治中的指导价值

《伤寒论》六经辨证是在《黄帝内经》六经理论及脏象、经络两学说的基础上发展、完善而得来的,是中医的鼻祖。本文的主要目的是探讨《伤寒论》六经辨证在IgA肾病诊治中应用价值。IgA肾病又称为原发性肾小球疾病,在我国常见,其整个发病过程可视为从三阳经(太阳、阳明、少阳)转变为三阴经(太阴、少阴及厥阴)。IgA肾病在各经为病,脉症特点并不相同,因此IgA肾病采用六经辨证为指导,判断病情,能够有效防治IgA肾病,对临床具有重要的意义及价值。     

The parabiliary venous system

Summary The parabiliary venous system originates from the pancreatico-duodenal and pyloro-duodenal veins, runs along the common bile-duct and the hepatic artery, and divides in the liver hilum into a venous network within the hilar plate. Embryologically, this system, apparently independent of the portal vein, develops together with the bile-ducts and the hepatic artery: these three structures are within the substance of the vasculo-biliary sheaths, and the whole complex invades the liver well after the distribution of the portal vein has been established. It should be pointed out that segments I and IV also appear rather late. Seventy-four specemins with injection of the system have been studied. The hilar plexus sends branches to the veins of the segments adjacent to the hilum. Some vessels directly supply the inferior surface of the quadrate lobe or the caudate lobe, or the left lobe. In 46.50% of specemins, part of the cystic veins are anastomosed with the Parabiliary system.

Le système veineux parabiliaire

Résumé Le système veineux parabiliaire prend origine dans les veines pancréatico-duodénales et pyloro-duodénales, monte le long de la voie biliaire et l'artère hépatique, et se termine dans le hile dans un lascis veineux situé dans la plaque hilaire. Embryologiquement il semble étranger à la formation de la veine porte, se constitue en même temps que les canaux biliaires et les artères intra-hépatiques: ces trois éléments sont situés dans la texture même des enveloppes vasculo-biliaires, et le tout envahit le foie bien après la pénétration de la veine porte. L'étude porte sur 74 foies dans lesquels le système s'est trouvé injecté. Le plexus hilaire envoie des collatérales qui se jettent dans les veines des segments adjacents au hile. Mais certaines branches irriguent directement la face inférieure du lobe carré, ou le lobe gauche. Dans 46,50% des cas, une partie des veines cystiques se jettent dans ce système.

     

术苓健脾胶囊对TNBS诱导的大鼠实验性结肠炎的作用及机制

探讨术苓健脾胶囊（术苓）对2,4,6-三硝基苯磺酸（TNBS）诱导的大鼠实验性结肠炎的作用及其机制。采用2.5%TNBS灌肠制备大鼠实验性结肠炎模型。将大鼠随机分为正常组、模型组、肠炎宁（180 mg/kg）组以及术苓低剂量（40 mg/kg）、高剂量（120 mg/kg）组。造模后药物治疗7 d后处死大鼠。其间每日记录大鼠体重,观察大鼠疾病活动状态。实验结束后,取结肠组织进行HE病理学分析、检测结肠组织中髓过氧化物酶（MPO）酶活、诱导型一氧化氮合酶（iNOS）、炎性细胞因子（IL-6、IL-1β、IFN-γ、IL-10）及紧密连接蛋白（occludin、ZO-1）的表达水平,并检测血清中炎性细胞因子（IL-6、IL-1β）的含量。结果表明,与模型组相比,术苓给药显著缓解了TNBS造模引起的体重下降、疾病活动指数（DAI）升高,缓解了结肠组织的缩短、水肿以及病理学损伤,减少了炎性细胞浸润、隐窝的破坏与杯状细胞的丢失,降低了结肠组织MPO酶活性、iNOS与炎性细胞因子的水平,增加了结肠紧密连接蛋白的表达,同时降低了血清中的炎性因子的含量。结果表明,术苓通过降低炎性因子水平,增加肠道紧密...     

Pathogenesis of idiopathic IgA nephropathy

Despite a prodigious amount of work on the physiology of IgA production in man, and many studies on the immunopathology of IgA nephropathy, ranging from the immunogenetics to the immune response to chemical characteristics of the IgA, we are hardly any nearer to defining the pathogenesis of this disease. One of the main changes in our understanding has been to recognise that the bone marrow, now known to produce normally one-third of the body's IgA, overproduces this immunoglobulin in IgA nephropathy. This alters the previous notion that IgA nephropathy was due simply to IgA production in the mucosa, although a mucosal component is not excluded. Certain characteristics of the IgA in the diseased kidney and the circulation have been defined: it is of subclass IgA1 and has a higher proportion of light chains and negative charge than in normal subjects. The specificities of the IgA, either in the kidney or in complexes, have not helped to clarify the pathogenesis. They have been found for a wide range of endogenous and exogenous antigens, suggesting that the antibody activity represents polyclonal B cell activation. These findings have not helped to confirm the prevailing theory that IgA nephropathy is an immune complex disease. Other theories put forward are that IgA nephropathy is an autoimmune disease, glomerular components or IgA itself being among the candidate antigens, or that there is primary dysregulation of the IgA immune system. At this stage of development in our understanding of this common nephropathy, it is important to guard against the assumption that idiopathic IgA nephropathy is one disease and is the result of a single pathogenetic mechanism.     

Glomerular function and microalbuminuria in children with insulin-dependent diabetes

Renal function has been evaluated in 45 diabetic children (age 12.5±4 years) with a mean diabetes duration of 4.9±3.5 years. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR; inulin and creatinine clearances), renal plasma flow (RPF; PAH clearance), resting urinary albumin excretion (UAE) were measured and compared with indexes of metabolic control: Hb A₁C and blood glucose values (mean, post-prandial and maximal excursion) on the same day. GFR (inulin clearance) and RPF were significantly increased in the diabetic group (171±31 and 778±172 ml/min per 1.73 m²) compared with controls (124±18 and 631±128 ml/min per 1.73 m²). Both parameters were strongly correlated (r=0.73;P<0.001). Creatinine clearance was not correlated to inulin clearance. Hyperfiltration (inulin clearance above 160 ml/min per 1.73 m²) was noted in 61% of the patients and was independent of diabetes duration. Five diabetic children had a UAE level above 15 g/min. No relationship could be established between UAE and any of the metabolic indexes; GFR was weakly correlated to HbA₁C (r=0.35;P<0.05), to mean (r=0.35;P<0.05) and post-prandial blood glucose (r=0.37;P<0.05). In contrast, there was a strong correlation between GFR and the maximal blood excursion (r=0.62;P<0.001). The study shows that renal abnormalities can be detected with a high frequency in diabetic subjects characterized by both an early onset and a short duration of diabetes and suggests the need for a more systematic evaluation of renal parameters in this population.
