Short term effect of brachypodium total hip arthroplasty for young patients with osteonecrosis / 中国医师进修杂志

Objective To investigate short term effect of brachypodium total hip arthroplasty for young patients with osteonecrosis, and to provide a reference for clinical treatment. Methods From January 2008 to January 2012, 44 cases of femoral head necrosis patients (46 hips) were selected, with age from 28 to 52, and average age (39.94 ± 5.25) years old; according to prosthesis type they were divided into control group and observation group, control group( 22 cases of 24 hips, using metal-on-polyethylene Duraloc total hip prosthesis replacement treatment), and in the observation group (22 cases of 22 hips, with use of ceramic-on-ceramic Metha Brachypodium total hip prosthesis replacement therapy). Patients were followed up for 12 to 36 months, Harris score, range of motion and other indicators were compared in two groups of patients. Results In observation group and control group, the level of WOMAC score, total Harris score and function, motion range, pain, abnormalities score were significantly improved compared with those before operation:in observation group:(27.46 ± 4.19) scores vs.(66.38 ± 5.84) scores, (92.73 ± 7.68) scores vs.(42.67 ± 7.28) scores, (45.28 ± 5.34) scores vs. (22.19 ± 4.19) scores, (4.46 ± 0.63) scores vs. (3.25 ± 0.66) scores, (39.54 ± 1.54) scores vs. (15.39 ± 2.86) scores, (3.45 ± 0.65) scores vs. (1.84 ± 0.32) scores;in control group:(28.16 ± 4.07) scores vs. (65.67 ± 6.22) scores, (93.03 ± 7.54) scores vs.(43.74 ± 7.57) scores, (44.65 ± 5.26) scores vs. (22.45 ± 4.37) scores, (4.74 ± 0.71) scores vs. (3.17 ± 0.59) scores, (39.87 ± 1.26) scores vs. (16.19 ± 2.55) scores, (3.77 ± 0.73) scores vs. (1.93 ± 0.43) scores, and there were significantly differences (P0.05). All patients were follower up for 12-36(23.19 ± 3.66) months. One case in observation group had leg swelling and healed after symptomatic treatment, 1 case in the control group had limb swelling, and 1 case had extensive subcutaneous bleeding .And they were cured after symptomatic treatment 1 case had femoral dislocation, and no secondary dislocation happened after the implementation of manual reduction. Conclusions Brachypodium ceramic ceramic total hip replacement therapy has same effect for young osteonecrosis patients compared to polyethylene and metal prosthesis in improving hip function, but the ceramic-on-ceramic prosthesis brachypodium has better performance in wear resistance with smaller friction coefficient is smaller, and is suitable for young patients.

Relationships of the posterior condylar angle to the femoral shaft-transcondylar angle,the tibial plateau-tibial shaft angle and the femoral shaft-tibial shaft angle in ostoearthritic knees / 中国矫形外科杂志

[Objective] To develop a new method of measuring the posterior condylar angle(PCA)interoperatively,and determine the relationships of the PCA to the femoral shaft-transcondylar angle(FSXC)、the tibial plateau-tibial shaft angle(TPTS)and the femoral shaft-tibial shaft angle(FSTS)in southern Chinese people with osteoarthritic knees.[Methods]During July 2007 to March 2008,the PCA was measured directly in 30 osteoarthritic knees undergoing total knee arthroplasty with the PCA Conimeter designed by the author.There were 29 patients including 3 males and 26 females,and the average age was 66.6 years(range,50~78 years),18 left knees and 12 right knees.The radiologic measurements were performed preoperatively on weight-bearing long leg AP radiographs,which included FSXC,TPTS and FSTS.A linear correlation analysis was performed to determine the relationships of PCA to the FSXC,TPTS and FSTS.[Results]The value of the PCA was 5.2??2.6?.The values of the FSXC and TPTS were 8.6??2.9?and 4.1??4.0?,and both had significant linear correlationships with the value of the PCA(P

Research of the integrated management of postoperative blood loss in total knee arthroplasty / 中国矫形外科杂志

[Objective]To evaluate the effect of integrated management of blood loss in total knee arthroplasty (TKA ) between gypsum fixed up, ice compress,elastic bandage and only with elastic bandage. [Methods]From January 2006 to August 2008,107 patients undergoing TKA were randomized divided into integrated management group( 54 cases) and control group( 53 cases).Sex,age and deseases in two groups were comparative.The patients in integrated management were treated with elastic bandage,gypsum fixed up,leg elevated by 35 degrees at the hip with knee extended, continuous cold therapy.The patient in control group were only treated with single elastic bandage.The loss of blood during 2 h, 12 h, 24 h postoperative were analyzed.[Results]The blood loss was 170 ml(85~505 ml),210 ml(105~560 ml), 260 ml(110~580 ml)at 2 h、12 h、 24 h postoperative in integrated management group,and 180 ml(110~900 ml), 320 ml(115~930 ml),390 ml(170~970 ml) in control group.The blood loss in integrated group was obviously and a statistically significant difference was found between the two groups (P

Introduction to Chinese Standard Aphasia Examination / 中国康复理论与实践

@#The Chinese Standard Aphasia Examination was made according to Chinese language and cultural habits by referring to Japanese Standard Language Test of Aphasia.151 normal people and patients whose brain damaged without aphasia were tested.Mean and standard deviations were calculated.The significant differences were not found by analysis of variance to age,sex,handedness,profession and education except oral instruction and describing pictures in different educational groups.Therefore,the examination is suitable for Chinese aphasics who live in different parts of China and spoken mandarin.
