RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of pelvic rotation around coronal axis on the placement angle of acetabular prosthesis after total hip arthroplasty.Methods:According to Murary's definition, the angle between the acetabular axis and the sagittal plane was defined as the acetabular abduction angle, and the angle between the acetabular axis and the coronal plane as the anterior inclination angle. A simple mathematical solid geometry model was established by using the mathematical software GeoGebra to simulate the dynamic changes of the acetabular prosthesis when it rotated around the coronal axis, and the calculation formula of the dynamic changes of the anterior inclination and abduction angle of the acetabular prosthesis was derived. MatLab software was used to generate the function graph of pelvis forward inclination and abduction angle and deduce the motion of acetabular prosthesis.Results:The dynamic changes of acetabular tilt angle and abduction angle when the pelvis rotated around the coronal axis were functionally related to the anterior-posterior tilt of the pelvis in a nonlinear pattern. When the pelvis rotates around the coronary axis, the anterior inclination angle formula is α 1=arcsin (sinβ 1×cosα×cosθ+cosβ 1×sinα); When the acetabulum axis faces downwards the abduction angle formula is θ 1=arccot (cosβ 1×cotθ-sinβ 1×tanα/sinθ); When the acetabulum axis faces upwards the abduction angle formula is θ 1=π-abs[arccot (cosβ 1×cotθ-sinβ 1×tanα/sinθ)] withα being the initial acetabular forward angle, θ being the initial acetabular abduction angle, α 1 being the forward angle of the acetabular prosthesis after pelvic rotation, θ 1 being the external expansion angle of the acetabular prosthesis after pelvic rotation and β 1 being the rotation angle of the pelvis around the coronal axis. When the pelvis is tilted backward, the anterior inclination angle of the acetabular prosthesis increases first and then decreases, and the abduction angle continues to increase. When the pelvis is tilted forward, the abduction angle decreases first and then increases, and the anterior inclination angle continues to decrease to negative. Conclusion:When the initial anterior inclination angle and abduction angle of acetabular prosthesis change, the curve of anterior inclination and abduction angle change accordingly. The larger the initial anterior inclination angle is, the faster it reaches its peak value, and the larger the peak value is, the faster the abduction angle changes. The larger the initial abduction angle is, the slower the initial anterior inclination angle and the abduction angle change.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic osteolysis and subsequent aseptic loosening are most common reasons forrevision after total joint replacements. Recently studies found that calcineurin/activated T cell nuclear factor (CN/NFAT) signaling pathway plays important roles in the pathogenic process of wear-induced inflammation and osteolysis. OBJECTIVE: To summarize CN/NFAT effects on wear particles-induced osteolysis, and to provide new ideas and newtheories for osteolysis-related diseases. METHODS: We retrieved PubMed for studies published from January 1980 to June 2016. The key words were CN/NFAT, CN/NFAT signaling pathways, wear particles, osteolysis, osteoclasts, osteoblast. Finally, 72 studies were analyzed and explored according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The pathogenesis of osteolysis involves the activation of macrophages by wear particles and the release of various proinflammatory cytokines. Bone is continuously renewed through a dynamic balance between bone resorption and formation and is the fundamental basis for maintaining normal bone mass andarchitecture by osteoclasts and osteoblasts. In this process, CN/NFAT signaling pathway is the signal transduction pathway involved in the differentiation of Ca2+ and nuclear factor kappa B receptor ligand. Osteoclasts play a significant role in both physiological and pathological bone resorption, and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand is the key cytokine that induces osteoclastogenesis.
RESUMEN
Post traumatic epilepsy(PTE)refers to the epileptic seizures after traumatic brain injury. Or-ganic damage can be found by imaging examination, and abnormal electroencephalogram can be detected via electroencephalogram examination which has the similar location of the brain injury. PTE has the characteristics of low incidence, absence of case reports, and easy to exaggerate the state of illness, which add difficulties to the forensic identification. This paper reviews the status of epidemiology, patho-genesis, clinical treatment and forensic identification for PTE.

Objective T o study the correlation of daily living activities with location and severity of trau-m atic brain injury (TBI) and to provide a theoretical basis for im proving the accuracy of expert opinion. Methods Five hundred and one cases of patients with TBI were selected. D etailed records included fol-lowing: pre-injury situation, location and severity of injury, treatm ent and education. D aily living activi-ties scale (B arthel index) was applied to test the subjects’daily living activities. T he relevance am ong location and severity of TBI and B arthel index was statistically analyzed. Results In m ild TBI group, there wasnosignificantdifferenceinBarthelindex among each location (P>0.05).Inmoderate TBIgroup, there were significant differences in B arthel index between subarachnoid hem orrhage and cerebral lobe injury, also between parietal, occipital lobes injury and frontal lobe injury, parietal, occipital lobes injury and temporallobe(P0.05).In severe TBI,there were significant differences in Barthel index between every two different locations (P<0.05). Conclusion T here is som e correlation between the location of TBI and B arthel index, which provides an im portant reference value for analyzing and deter-m ining daily living activities after TBI.
