Meta Analysis[Systematic review of the earlier safety of closed suction drainage for knee arthroplasty].
To evaluate the earlier safety of closed suction drainage systems for knee arthroplasty. ⋯ There is insufficient evidence from randomised trials to support the routine use of closed suction drainage in knee arthroplasty. It results in an increase in the number of patients requiring blood transfusion. However, because of the poor trial methodology of many of the studies and the inadequate reporting of outcomes, further randomized trials on this topic are justified.

[Mechanism of glutamine downregulates the cytokine expression in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells].
To investigate the mechanism that glutamine (Gln) downregulates the cytokine expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PMBCs). ⋯ The effect of glutamine attenuating cytokine release in PBMCs is related to the enhancement of HSP70 expression.
