[Objective]To investigate the pathological change of articular cartilage after impacting injury.[Method]Fifty-six New Zealand adult rabbits were divided randomly into low-energy and high-energy groups,with 28 rabbits in each group.One side of hind limb was designed as experimental side and the opposite one as control side.Four rabbits were killed at 4 days,1,2,4,8,16 weeks after impacting injury.Histological sections of the specimens were observed and stained by HE and Safranin O.the values of gray scale were obtained by imaging analysis.[Result]In low-energy group,the Mankin's score and the value of gray scale of Safranin O in experiment side was not significantly different from the control side.In high-energy group,the Mankin's score and the value of gray scale of Safranin O in experiment side increased gradually,and was significantly different from the control side.[Conclusion]In the low-energy group,the cartilage returned to the normal level at 4 weeks.In the high-energy group,the cartilage failed to be restored.The degeneration of articular cartilage was very obvious after 4 weeks.

Objective Twelve cases with small advanced cole-rectal cancer less than 10 mm in diameter were examined. Methods The endoscopic findings and clinicopathologic data of 12 cases with advanced colorectal cancer less than 10 mm in diameter were compared with those larger than 10 mm in diameter. Results Approximated estimation of the macroscopic types were Ⅱ c in 5 cases, Ⅱ a in 3 cases, and I s in 4 cases respectively. As for the distribution of these lesions, there were 5 in sigmoid colon, 4 in transverse colon, 1 in cecum, and 2 in descending colon. No lesions were detected in rectum. Histologic grade at the deepest invasive portion was shown well, moderately, and poorly differentiated in 2, 8 and 1 case respectively and another case with mucinous adenocarcinomas. Lymphnode metastasis was present in 4 of 12 lesions (33% ). This incidence is rather high, as regards to the small size of each lesion. Endoscopi-cally, all lesions accompanied with converging folds and 7 lesions examined by magnifying colonoscope showed V N pit pattern. Conclusion These results indicated that the advanced colorectal cancers less than 10mm in diameter showing similar characteristics with those of superficial depressed type cancer with likely is the precurser of advanced cancer. The findings of converging folds and pit pattern are considered to be the useful indicators for estimating the depth 'of invasion.

Objective:To observe the effects of auto-dendritic cell vaccine on T cells of patients with condyloma acuminatum(CA) related human papilloma virus(HPV) and its clinical outcome.Methods:73 patients with condyloma acuminata(CA) in the present study were positive of HPV-DNA and have been unsuccessfully treated with freezing,laser,or electric therapy combined with interferon anti-virus treatment for half a year.The peripheral blood samples were harvested from patients and the monouclear cells were extracted to cultivate DCs in presence of cytokines.Auto DCs were sensitized with corresponding HPV virus antigen of a patient to prepare the auto-dendritic cell vaccine.Then the vaccine were cultivated with auto T-cells and the proliferation of T cells were examined.Meanwhile,the auto-DC vaccine(1-4)?107 was also injected into the patients' inguinal lymph glands and its therapeutic effectiveness was observed.Results:The prepared DC-vaccine significantly promoted the proliferation of auto T cells compared with control group(P

Cartilage antuumor component (CATC) was isolated from a 1 mol/L guanidine hydrochloride extract of bovine cartilage by acetone fractioned precipitation and superfiltration. Using human skin fibroblasts as a normal control, it was demonstrated that CATC inhibited the DNA synthesis of Hela, QGY7703 tumor cell lines and bovine artery endothelial cells, but accelerated the normal cells, when the concentration was below 1250 ?g/ml. At the concentration of 5 000 ?g/ml, CATC inhibited the two cell lines. With human tumor stem cell assay, CATC inhibited the stem cell growth of Hela and QGY7703 cell lines. These suggest that CATC has the effects of inhibiting angiogenesis and tumor cells.

Objective To investigate the association between the nodular gastritis and the eradication of Helicobacter pylori .Methods To the patients with nodular gastritis discovered by gastroendoscopy during 2001～2002, detection of Helicobacter pylori and eradication of it if positive, were performed then followed up after 6 months by endoscopies.Results From 4939 cases of endoscopy thirteen cases of female nodular gastritis were diagnosed, accounted to 0 26% of the total cases examined. The age of patients ranged from 14～49 years, with mean age 29 years.The main symptom is epigastralgia. All cases were found affected with H.pylori . After H.pylori eradication, there is disappearance of the nodular appearance of the gastric antrum under endoscopies and disappearance of the gastric submucosal lymphoid follicles under histological examination.Conclusion Nodular gastritis is the very important manifestation having a high positive predictive value in H.pylori infection.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid on bleeding in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods A retrospective study was performed in 197 RA patients (Steinbrock?er III-IV) following primary unilateral THA from June 2012 to June 2014. The patients were divided to three groups based on the regimen of tranexamic acid:68 patients received a single intravenous dosage of 15 mg/kg tranexamic acid 20 min prior to opera?tion (single dose group);74 patients received an intravenous dosage of 15 mg/kg preoperatively and a second dosage of 10 mg/kg 3 hours postoperatively (repeated dose group);the other 55 patients didn't receive tranexamic acid (control group). The primary out?comes were total blood loss, transfusion rate, the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). The sec?ondary outcomes were postoperative drainage, hemoglobin (Hb) drop on third day postoperatively and other wound related compli?cations. Results There was less total blood loss (816.80 ± 245.09 ml vs 975.15 ± 216.33 ml vs 1 295.68 ± 263.85 ml), drainage (221.60 ± 70.05 ml vs 337.20 ± 113.10 ml vs 479.74 ± 120.66 ml), transfusion requirement (5.41%vs 10.29%vs 25.45%) and Hb drop (2.71±0.74 g/dl vs 3.18±0.62 g/dl vs 3.83±0.70 g/dl) in experimental group when compared with control group. And the effect was better in repeated dose group, with less total blood loss (816.80 ± 245.09 ml), less transfusion requirement (5.41%) and less postoperative drainage (221.60±70.05 ml). No episode of DVT or PE occurred in either group. There were 8 wound complications in single dose group, 6 in repeated group, and 8 in control group, and there were no statistically difference. Conclusion Intrave?nous administration of tranexamic acid was effective and safe on decreasing blood loss and transfusion requirement in RA patients following THA. Compared with a single dosage of tranexamic acid preoperatively, a second dosage of tranexamic acid 3 hours post?operatively was recommended.
