Meta Analysis[Meta-analysis of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty versus high tibial osteotomy in the treatment of unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis].
To assess the efficacy of UKA versus HTO in the treatment of unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis. ⋯ UKA reduces the risk of postoperative revision and complications and provides excellent outcomes.

[Effect of lung stress index upon titration of positive end-expiratory pressure at post-recruitment in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome].
To investigate the relationship of stress index and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and to determine the relationship of stress index, lung recruitment, oxygenation and respiration mechanics. ⋯ Stress index at post-RM can be an excellent method of PEEP titration for ARDS patients.

[Association of ENA-78, IP-10 and VEGF gene polymorphism with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis].
To examine whether there was an association between epithelial neutrophil activating peptide 78 (ENA-78), interferon-inducible protein 10 (IP-10), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) polymorphism and Chinese patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). ⋯ -156C allele for ENA-78 may be a risk factor of IPF and -1596T allele for IP-10 a beneficial factor of IPF. The VEGF (+405G/C) gene polymorphism has no effect upon the predisposition to IPF.

Comparative Study[Comparison of correction outcomes after anterior or posterior approach with lowest and vertebra instrumentation in adolescent idiopathic thoracolumbar/lumbar scoliosis].
To evaluate the different influences upon the correction outcomes after anterior or posterior correction and fusion with lowest end vertebra instrumentation in adolescent idiopathic thoracolumbar/lumbar scoliosis. ⋯ For adolescent idiopathic thoracolumbar/lumbar scoliosis, in comparison with the anterior approach, the posterior approach using all pedicle screws can achieve a better correction outcome, a less correction loss of coronal Cobb angle and a better disc angle with a longer fusion range.

[Sensory gating P50 in schizophrenic patients with and without homicide].
To investigate the change of sensory gating P50 in schizophrenic patients with and without homicide. ⋯ Sensory gating deficit exists in schizophrenic patients with and without homicide. And it can be quantified by measuring auditory evoked potential P50, but sensory gating P50 has no difference between schizophrenic patients with and without homicide.
