Objective To evaluate the effects of in situ subtalar arthrodesis with bone graft for subtalar traumatic arthritis, and to analyse the plantar pressure distribution so as to provide the evidence for effectiveness evaluation. Methods Between March 2004 and December 2008, 26 patients with unilateral subtalar arthrodesis undergoing bone graft fusion wereenrolled (test group). After operation, the imageology diversity and the effect of subtalar arthrodesis on adjacent joint wereobserved. American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankel Society (AOFAS) ankle and hindfoot score and radiographs were used to assess the foot function before and after operation. Twenty-six normal subjects served as controls. Footscan system was used to test the distribution of maximum plantar pressure and the change of gravity center curve. No significant difference was found in gender, age, height, and weight between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). Results All patients were followed up 18.2 months on average (range, 14-71 months). The mean subtalar arthrodesis time was 5.6 months (range, 4 months and 15 days to 11 months). The mean AOFAS ankle and hindfoot score improved from 35.18 ± 8.16 preoperatively to 76.36 ± 6.90 postoperatively (t=13.910, P=0.000). Nine (34.6%) patients had satisfactory functional effects, and 13 (50.0%) patients basically satisfactory. The talocalcaneal height, talocalcaneal angle, talar decl ination angle, and calcaneus patch angle were 87.04% ± 6.17%, 76.73% ± 5.13%, 65.86% ± 7.01%, and 70.19% ± 8.33% of the contralateral side, respectively. Osteoarthritis of the adjacent joints occurred in 7 cases. The maximum plantar pressure increased in the third to fifth metatarsal bones and decreased in the first to second metatarsal bones, showing significant differences when compared with normal controls (P lt; 0.05). No significant difference was found in the plantar pressure between arthrodesis foot and contralateral foot of the test group (P gt; 0.05). The plantar pressure was well distributed in patient who was satisfied with the effect, but it was still different from normal controls. In patients who had high plantar pressure n middle foot, mild heel inversion occurred. The gravity center curve of the contralateral foot in the test group was almost the same as that of normal controls; curve medially shifted when forefoot touched down. The curve irregularly and laterally shifted in the subtalar arthrodesis foot; the curve did not medially shift when forefoot touched down. Conclusion In situ subtalar arthrodesis with bone graft has good cl inical results for subtalar traumatic arthritis. Gait analysis can be appl ied to assess the therapeutic effectiveness, and contribute to make a surgical plan. For the adaptive alteration of contralateral side after subtalar arthrodesis, a cohort of normal subjects should be used for comparison in gait analysis.
Objective To analyze the value of serum levels of miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 in predicting early neurological deterioration (END) in non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods The patients with non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage who met the selection criteria and were admitted to Chengde Central Hospital between February 2021 and October 2022 were prospectively selected by convenience sampling method. The serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 levels upon admission and the occurrence of neurological deterioration within 24 h were collected, and the patients were divided into a deterioration group and a non-deterioration group according to whether neurological deterioration occurred. The correlation of serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 levels with the END of non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage and their predictive value to the END of non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage were analyzed. Results A total of 235 patient were enrolled. Of the 235 patients, 45 (19.1%) showed neurological deterioration and 190 (80.9%) showed no neurological deterioration. The levels of miR-141-3p and miR-29a-3p in the deteriorating group were significantly lower than those in the non-deteriorating group [(1.11±0.32) vs. (1.76±0.51) ng/mL, P<0.001; (1.19±0.31) vs. (1.71±0.51) ng/mL, P<0.001], and the levels of miR-130a and miR-210 were significantly higher than those in the non-deteriorating group [(5.13±1.11) vs. (3.82±1.03) ng/mL, P<0.001; (3.96±0.76) vs. (2.78±0.50) ng/mL, P<0.001]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum miR-141-3p and miR-29a-3p levels were protective factors for the occurrence of END in non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage patients [odds ratio (OR)=0.513, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.330, 0.798), P=0.003; OR=0.582, 95%CI (0.380, 0.893), P=0.013], and serum miR-130a and miR-210 levels were independent risk factors for that [OR=2.046, 95%CI (1.222, 3.426), P=0.007; OR=2.377, 95%CI (1.219, 4.638), P=0.011]. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.857 [95%CI (0.760, 0.954)] in predicting the END of non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage by the combined probability of the serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 levels obtained by logistic regression, and the sensitivity was 86.7%, the specificity was 94.7%, the positive predictive value was 79.6%, and the negative predictive value was 96.8% according to the cut-off value of the prediction probability of the combined test. Conclusion The combined detection of serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 has a high predictive value in the occurrence of END in non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage patients.
ObjectiveTo systematically profile and characterize the circular RNA (circRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) expression pattern in the lesion epicenter of spinal tissues after traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) and predict the structure and potential functions of the regulatory network.MethodsForty-eight adult male C57BL/6 mice (weighing, 18-22 g) were randomly divided into the TSCI (n=24) and sham (n=24) groups. Mice in the TSCI group underwent T8-10 vertebral laminectomy and Allen’s weight-drop spinal cord injury. Mice in the sham group underwent the same laminectomy without TSCI. The spinal tissues were harvested after 3 days. Some tissues were stained with HE staining to observe the structure. The others were used for sequencing. The RNA-Seq, gene ontology (GO) analysis, and circRNA-miRNA network analyses (TargetScan and miRanda) were used to profile the expression and regulation patterns of network of mice models after TSCI.ResultsHE staining showed the severe damage to the spinal cord in TSCI group compared with sham group. A total of 17 440 circRNAs and 1 228 miRNAs were identified. The host gene of significant differentially expressed circRNA enriched in the cytoplasm, associated with positive regulation of transcription and protein phosphorylation. mmu-miR-21-5p was the most significant differentially expressed miRNA after TSCI, and circRNA6730 was predicted to be its targeted circRNA. Then a potential regulatory circRNA-miRNA network was constructed.ConclusionThe significant differentially expressed circRNAs and miRNAs may play important roles after TSCI. A targeted interaction network with mmu-miR-21-5p at the core of circRNA6730 could provide basis of pathophysiological mechanism, as well as help guide therapeutic strategies for TSCI.
Objective To discuss the short-term effectiveness of total hip arthroplasty (THA) for post-traumatic osteoarthritis secondary to acetabular fracture. Methods Between January 2004 and March 2012, the clinical data was analyzed retrospectively from 12 cases (13 hips) of post-traumatic osteoarthritis secondary to acetabular fracture undergoing THA. Of 12 patients, 6 were male and 6 were female, with an average age of 55.6 years (range, 40-68 years). The locations were the left hip in 5 cases, the right hip in 6 cases, and bilateral hips in 1 case. The interval between acetabular fracture and THA was 65.7 months on average (range, 12-240 months). The preoperative hip Harris score was 48.8 ± 9.5. Results The incisions healed by first intention. No deep vein thrombosis and infection occurred postoperatively. Ten cases were followed up 1-7 years (mean, 4.8 years). The hip Harris score was 86.5 ± 8.6 at last follow-up, showing significant difference when compared with preoperative score (t=10.520, P=0.006). X-ray films showed no acetabular prosthesis instability. Stem subsidence (2 mm) occurred in 1 case, peri-prosthetic osteolysis in 2 cases, and heterotopic ossification in 2 cases (Brooker type I and type II in 1 case, respectively). Conclusion THA has satisfactory short-term effectiveness for post-traumatic osteoarthritis secondary to acetabular fracture. The good effectiveness is based on strict case selection, pathological evaluation, and the proper acetabular reconstruction.

Objective To assess the effect of atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) on decayed deciduous and permanent teeth in children. Methods Such databases as CENTRAL of The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, and VIP were searched, and the China clinical trial register center were also searched. The search was conducted by the end of April, 2009 to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of ART vs. conventional restorative treatment (CRT) for childhood caries. The data extraction was performed by two reviewers independently. The quality of the included studies was critically assessed and the data analyses were performed by the Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 5.0.2 software. Results A total of seven randomized controlled trials were included. Only was the descriptive analysis conducted because of the difference of restorative materials used in each study, the types of target teeth, the measure indexes, and the year limit of follow up, which showed that, most of the included studies suggested that the survival rate of restorative materials in all types of caries hole was similar between the ART group and the CRT group; only a few studies suggested that the CRT group was superior to the ART group; the children in the ART group felt more comfortable than those in the CRT group during the treatment procedure; two studies compared the working time and got an opposite results. Conclusion Because of the higher clinical heterogeneity of the include studies, the merger analysis fails to be conducted, so it is impossible to get a precise conclusion about the effect of treating childhood caries with ART vs. CRT, and more RCTs with high quality are needed for confirmation.
