    Background: During fixation of total hip arthroplasty (THA) after osteotomy, it is difficult to obtain a good cement mantle with a cemented stem and to obtain good fit along the medullary canal with a ready-made stem. We developed a CT-based custom stem, which was inserted after osteotomy in THA. Methods: We investigated 32 hips in 28 patients. The mean patient age at surgery was 62 and the mean follow-up period was 13 years. The previous osteotomy was intertrochanteric varus femoral osteotomy in 14 hips, intertrochanteric valgus femoral osteotomy in 17, and Schanz osteotomy in one. CT studies were obtained with a 5 mm slice intervals and 2 mm slice width. We produced stems made of Ti-6Al-4V. The stems did not have collars and the proximal third was coated with a 400-μ. m-thick porous coating covered with 20-μ m-hydroxyapatite (HA) coating. Results: The Harris Hip Score improved from a preoperative mean of 49.9 points to a postoperative mean of 82.7 points. One patient complained of postoperative thigh pain. Fractures occurred in two hips. Dislocation occurred in three patients. To date. no patient has reqired revision of the stem due to aseptic loosening. There was bone-ingrown fixation in all hips. Severe stress shielding was found in 14 hips (44%) Conclusion: Stable fixation was achieved with the proximal press-fit of the custom stem. Although stress shielding was observed in 14 hips, excellent results were obtained over a follow-up period of 10 years with this custom stem system for hips after intertrochanteric femoral osteotomy.博士(医学)・乙第1419号・平成30年6月27

    Background: It is very important to understand the acetabular morphology of the normal hip joint to assist in diagnosis and surgical planning of hip disorders. The purpose of the present study was to obtain gender-based reference values for the acetabular measurements of a normal hip using computed tomography data and investigate the effect of aging on the measurement values. Methods: We measured acetabular parameters (center-edge angle, Sharp angle, vertical center anterior angle, acetabular anteversion) on computed tomography corrected for changing the obliquity, rotation, and tilt of the pelvis. We performed measurements in 245 patients (490 joints; 120 men [240 joints] and 125 women [250 joints]). The mean age was 64.7 ± 14.3 (31-88) years for men and 63.2 ± 15.2 (30-88) years for women. Results: In men and women, the mean center-edge angle was 31.8° ± 6.4° and 30.6° ± 6.5°, the mean Sharp angle was 38.6° ± 3.2° and 40.6° ± 3.8°, the mean vertical center anterior angle was 44.3° ± 7.9° and 40.0° ± 8.5°, and the mean acetabular anteversion angle was 14.3° ± 5.2° and 18.8° ± 5.4°, respectively. All differences were statistically significant. The center-edge angle increased with age in women; however, such an effect was not observed in men. The other measurements showed a similar trend, such as larger vertical center anterior angle and smaller Sharp and acetabular anteversion angles, with aging in both men and women. Conclusions: We used computed tomography data to quantitatively assess the coverage and shape of the acetabulum in adult Japanese subjects and obtain the estimated reference ranges by gender. The results also proved that the measurements changed with aging in both sexes. These facts must be taken into account during the diagnosis of hip disease and planning of surgery.博士(医学)・甲第784号・令和3年3月15日© 2020 The Japanese Orthopaedic Association. Published by Elsevier B.V.

    The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptor GluRepsilon2 is important for delay and trace eyeblink conditioning in mice.

    It has been proposed that the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptor (GluR) plays an important role in synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory. The four GluRepsilon (NR2) subunits, which constitute NMDA receptors with a GluRzeta (NR1) subunit, differ both in their expression patterns in the brain and in their functional properties. In order to specify the distinct participation of each of these subunits, we focused on the GluRepsilon2 subunits, which are expressed mainly in the forebrain. We investigated delay and trace eyeblink conditioning in GluRepsilon2 heterozygous mutant mice whose content of GluRepsilon2 protein was decreased to about half of that in wild-type mice. GluRepsilon2 mutant mice exhibited severe impairment of the attained level of conditioned response (CR) in the delay paradigm, for which the cerebellum is essential and modulation by the forebrain has been suggested. Moreover, GluRepsilon2 mutant mice showed no trend toward CR acquisition in the trace paradigm with a trace interval of 500 ms, in which the forebrain is critically involved in successful learning. On the other hand, the reduction of GluRepsilon2 proteins did not disturb any basic sensory and motor functions which might have explained the observed impairment. These results are different from those obtained with GluRepsilon1 null mutant mice, which attain a normal level of the CR but at a slower rate in the delay paradigm, and showed a severe impairment in the trace paradigm. Therefore, the NMDA receptor GluRepsilon2 plays a more critical role than the GluRepsilon1 subunit in classical eyeblink conditioning

    BACKGROUND: Japan has been witnessing a considerable increase in the number of children with psychosomatic disorders. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the risk of psychosomatic disorder in adolescents and intra- and extra-familial adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). METHODS: A retrospective cohort study of 1592 Japanese university students (52% male, mean age 19.9 years) who completed a survey about intra- and extra-familial ACEs and the incidence of childhood psychosomatic disorders. Intra-familial ACEs included domestic violence, physical violence, emotional abuse, illness in household, parental divorce, no parental affection, and dysfunctional family. Extra-familial ACEs included physical violence or negative recognition by teachers, being bullied in elementary or junior high school, or sexual violence. RESULTS: The frequency of psychosomatic disorders among the respondents was 14.8%. Among the 7 intra-familial ACEs, emotional abuse (relative risk, RR = 1.9) and illness in household (RR = 1.7) increased the risk of psychosomatic disorders. Estimates of the relative risk for the 5 extra-familial ACEs were statistically significant and ranged from 1.5 for being bullied in elementary school or physical violence from teachers to 2.4. Students who had 3 or more intra-familial ACEs and 2 or more extra-familial ACEs had a 3.0 relative risk for psychosomatic disorder. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that intra- and extra-familial ACEs are associated with the development of psychosomatic disorders. Therefore, sufficient evaluation of ACEs should be performed in adolescent patients with psychosomatic disorder

    BACKGROUND: In arthroscopic surgery, the suture anchor technique has become popular for rotator cuff repair. Preoperative evaluation of the bone microstructure is of utmost importance because, especially in elderly patients, osteoporotic changes may cause anchor pullout, which results in failure of rotator cuff repair. Many groups have reported humeral microstructural analysis; however, most studies were experiments using porcine specimens or human cadavers. In this study, we used multidetector row computed tomography to successfully perform in vivo evaluation of the bone microstructure of the humeral greater tuberosity in patients with rotator cuff tears. METHODS: Ten patients were examined. Regions of interest were defined in six quadrants of the greater tuberosity (medial, lateral, and far lateral rows of the anterior and posterior areas). The local bone mineral density and the trabecular microstructural parameters, including the mean bone volume to total volume (BV/TV), trabecular thickness, trabecular separation, and structure model index (SMI), were measured using bone analysis software. RESULTS: The BV/TV of the posteromedial region was highest and the SMI of the posteromedial region was lowest. These findings suggest that the bone quality of the posteromedial portion is the highest within the greater tuberosity. CONCLUSION: Because the bone quality may be correlated with the pullout strength of suture anchors, our method can help to understand the individual and regional variance in bone quality and may lead to the creation of personalized surgical protocols.博士(医学)・乙第1360号・平成27年5月28日© 2014 Sakamoto et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
