Traditional Chinese medicine for invigorating the kidney and promoting blood circulation is commonly prescribed for the treatment of osteoarthritis associated with kidney deficiency and blood stasis. However, the specific mechanisms of these medicines are still unclear. The present study aimed to evaluate the protective effects of Bugu granules against sodium nitroprusside-induced chondrocyte apoptosis and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms.

- Tibiofibular syndesmosis injury can cause significant ankle pain and dysfunction if untreated, and there's still uncertainty in diagnosing and managing these injuries, particularly when an interosseous membrane injury is involved.
- The study reviews injury mechanisms, clinical signs, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies, emphasizing the importance of radiological exams and MRIs in guiding proper management.
- While traditional treatment with syndesmosis screws faced issues like loss of reduction and complications, newer methods such as elastic fixation are gaining traction, highlighting the need for anatomical reduction and effective fixation to minimize postsurgery complications.
Purpose: Postoperative knee flexion protocol has been widely recognized as a highly attractive, simple, and cost-effective tactic to improve patient's outcomes after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, optimal knee position and duration of knee flexion are still controversial. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to compare the effectiveness of different postoperative knee flexion protocols, as an aid to find out optimal limb management strategy following TKA.

Methods: Reports of studies were retrieved from the PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, BIOSIS, Ovid, CNKI, and Wanfang Data databases, as well as other sources. Methodological quality of the trials was critically assessed, and relevant data were extracted.
Objective: To investigate the outcomes of treating middle-up part long-segment fractures of the femur by long proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA-long).
Methods: From June 2006 to December 2013, 139 cases (35 women, 104 men; mean age 48.8, range, 18-86 years) of long-segment femoral fracture in middle-up part were treated with long proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA, 320-380 mm) by minimally invasive percutaneous fixation and autogenous iliac bone graft.

October 2016
Objective: To compare the treating effects of different intramedullary nailing methods on tibial fractures in adults.
Methods: Literature reports in both Chinese and English languages were retrieved (from the earliest available records to October 1, 2013) from the PubMed, FMJS, CNKI, Wanfang Data using randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to compare reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing for treatment of tibial fractures. Methodological quality of the trials was critically assessed, and relevant data were extracted.
Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effects of microsurgical one-stage repair of hand flexor tendon injuries.
Methods: Among 97 patients with (182 flexor tendons) hand injuries, 59 patients were male and 38 patients were female, ranging in age from 6 to 65 years, with an average of 32 years. Twenty-two patients got injuries by glasses, 32 patients got injuries by knife, 29 patients got injuries by saw, and 14 patients got crush injuries.
