全膝关节置换术后的骨溶解：胫骨盘表面的修饰及聚乙烯衬垫灭菌方法对其的影响术 后5至10年的报告

背景：从关节和胫骨假体聚乙烯衬垫后表面转移磨损碎屑，是全膝关节置换术后假体周围骨溶解的主要原因。全膝人工关节假体设计随时问而发生变化，例如对胫骨盘近端表面的粗糙度和聚乙烯衬垫的灭菌方法。我们假设胫骨盘表面抛光和采用空气中γ射线照射之外的其他方法对衬垫灭菌，可降低骨溶解的发生率。方法：从1987年至1998年，我们采用后十字韧带保留型的解剖型组配式全膝人工关节假体系列。对300名患者施行365例全膝关节置换术。术后5至10年，对这些患者的膝关节摄正、侧位X线片。由两位关节置换专家对X线片上的骨溶解状况进行单独评定（骨溶解的界定标准为假体周围存在边缘清晰的非线性松质骨丢失区）。结果：在粗糙表面的胫骨盘的242例膝关节中，使用空气中γ射线照射灭菌的衬垫固定，有34％（82例）骨溶解阳性。用惰性气体中γ射线照射或没有照射的衬垫与抛光表面连接的98例膝关节中，有9％（9例）骨溶解阳性。骨溶解与六项因素相关，这些因素为：一项与患者（男性）相关、一项与胫骨盘（近端表面抛光）相关、三项与聚乙烯衬垫（加工的原材料、灭菌方法及存放时间）相关及一项与手术技术（股骨假体与胫骨假体间的过伸）相关。结论：在这类假体设计中，胫骨盘近端表面采用抛光及衬垫采用更为先进的灭菌方法（不用空气中γ射线照射灭菌）能显著减少骨溶解的发生率，但不能避免骨溶解。     

Physical Stability of Solid Dispersions Containing Triamterene or Temazepam in Polyethylene Glycols

The effect of storage on the physical stability of solid dispersions of triamterene or temazepam in polyethylene glycols was studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), particle-size analysis and dissolution methods. The enthalpies of fusion of the carriers, without included drug and previously fused and crystallized, increased on storage. Analysis of similarly treated solid dispersions, containing either 10% temazepam or 10% triamterene, showed that each drug influenced the morphology of the polyethylene glycol (PEG). The enthalpies and melting points of the solidus components of the dispersions' carriers were initially reduced after preparation, but on storage these increased. The particle sizes of the drugs dispersed in the PEGs increased on storage. The changes in dissolution after storage of triamterene or temazepam dispersions were smaller for dispersions in PEG 1500 than for dispersions in PEGs of higher molecular weight (PEG 2000, PEG 4000 or PEG 6000) in which the reduction in dissolution was particularly marked during the first month of storage. The rank order of changes in dissolution were PEG 1500 ? PEG 2000 < PEG 4000 ～ PEG 6000.
