ABSTRACT
Objective:To measure the pubo-femoral distance of hips of the infants diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ by high frequency ultrasound.Methods:A total of 1 084 infants(2 168 hips) diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ by ultrasonography were collected in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2019 to May 2020. The ultrasonographic examinations included Graf method and pubo-femoral distance measurement. The 95% medical reference value was adopted to confirm range of normal values of the pubo-femoral distance. And the differences of the pubo-femoral distance between different gender, age and bilateral hip were compared.Results:The pubo-femoral distance of hips diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ was (0.27±0.06)cm, the pubo-femoral distance of males was(0.27±0.06)cm, the pubo-femoral distance of females was (0.27±0.07)cm. The 95% medical reference value was 0.15-0.38 cm. The 95% medical reference value of males was 0.15-0.39 cm, and the 95% medical reference value of females was 0.13-0.41 cm. There were no significant differences between the sexes or between the age(all P>0.05). The difference between the bilateral hip joints from the same infant was statistically significant[(0.274±0.064)cm vs (0.265±0.064)cm, P<0.05]. Conclusions:The 95% medical reference value of hip diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ is 0.15-0.38 cm.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of Lp(a)on proliferation GMCs of rat model induced by lipopolysaccharide and explore the possible mechanism of Lp(a)in the proliferation of rat GMCs.Methods To observe the effects of Lp(a)on proliferation of GMCs,different dosage of Lp(a)were used,The research were divided into three groups:Control group,LPS group,Lp(a)group.After culture(at the end of 12h,24h,48h,60h and 72h),the cultured GMCs and suspension were collected to observe the rate of GMCs proliferation by MTT,the positive rate of proliferation cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)by immunohistochemisty,and the level of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)by ELISA respectively.Results Compared with control and LPS group,MTT,positive rate of PCNA and ICAM-1 of GMCs were increased more significantly in Lp(a)group.MTT ,the positive rate of PCNA and ICAM-1 of GMCs were increased as Lp(a)dosage increased,a maximal effect was seen when Lp(a)was 2.5 μg/L or 5.0μg/L.When the dosage continue increased,MTT,the positive rate of PCNA and ICAM-1 activity of GMCs began to decrease in Lp(a)group.ICAM-1 showed positive correlation with MTT and the positive rate of PCNA.Conclusion Lp(a)can significantly affect the rate of GMCs proliferation,and this affection is in a dosage-and timedependent manner.Low dosage stimulates GMCs proliferation, and high dosage inhibits GMCs proliferation.ICAM-1 shows positive correlation with MTT and the positive rate of PCNA.The effect of Lp(a)on GMCs may be through ICAM-1.
