Osteochondral lesions of the talus are rare.The factors leading to them include trauma,chronic fatigue,family history,and idiopathic necrosis.The patients present with ankle pain,swelling,bruise,limited mobility and limp at an early stage while joint stiffness and walking and moving pain at a late stage.Normal check is likely to overlook them,resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment.If an osteochondral lesion of the talus is suspected with negative X-ray manifestations,further radionuclide bone scan or MRI is indicated for definite diagnosis.As there is no blood supply to the talar cartilage which is relatively too small,it is difficult to treat osteochondral lesions of the talus.Early mild lesions can be treated by conservative therapy.If conservative treatment fails or the lesions deteriorate,surgery is required.This paper reviews the research progress in the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus.

Objective: To analyze the short-term and long-term effects of non-operative therapy in the treatment of prolapsed lumbar intervertebral discs. Methods: One hundred and sixty-five subjects were randomized in single-blind method into traction group (A), Tuina group (B), and Tuina and exercise group (C); after 2 courses of treatment, the short-term effects were evaluated. Moreover, 102 cases with significant short-term effects were randomized in single-blind method into exercise group (D) and control group (E). The relapse rates in the two groups were survey one year after treatment; and the lumbar functions were assessed respectively six months and twelve months after treatment. Results: Groups B and C had obviously better effects than group A (χ2=8.359, P＜0.01); the relapse rate after one year was strikingly lower in group D than group E (χ2=12.631, P＜0.01). Conclusion: Tuina plus functional exercise is an effective method in the prevention and treatment of prolapsed lumbar intervertebral discs.

Purpose To study the therapeutic methods of fatigue syndrome. Methods Seventy-nine cases of fatigue syndrome were treated by Tuina manipulation and a comprehensive assessment of main complaints and accompanied symptoms was made. Results After 3month's Tuina treatment, 21 cases were cured, 43 cases improved, 15 cases obtained no effects. Conclusion Tuina has a unique therapeutic effect on fatigue syndrome.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of tuina in treating depression.Method: Eighty depression cases that conformed to the inclusive criteria were randomized into tuina and Deanxit group, with 40 cases in each group. Tuina manipulations were adopted for cases in the tuina group, 30 min for each treatment. While 2 Deanxit tablets were adopted for cases in the Deanxit group, twice a day. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated by using Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) before treatment and the 2nd, 4th and 6thweeks after. In addition, the Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) was adopted to evaluate the adverse reactions in the two groups. Result: Both tuina and Deanxit can help to relieve the symptoms of depression patients. The effective rate of tuina and Deanxit were 72.5% and 70.0% respectively. However, there were no adverse reactions in tuina group, while 12.5% of adverse reaction rate occurred in the Deanxit group. Conclusion: Tuina can definitely benefit patients with depression and cause no adverse reactions.

Objective To observe the change of ?-smooth muscle actin (?-SMA) expression in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver fibrosis in rats after treatment with Ganle keli. Methods Liver fibrosis rat model was induced by CCl4 twice a week for 12 weeks. Ganle keli was used daily intragastric administration from the 7th week. Contents of NO, NOS and iNOS were determined by absorption spectrometry. Liver samples were collected after experiments and stained by immunohistochemistry of ?-SMA. Moreover ?-SMAmRNA expression in liver tissue was detected by RT-PCR technology. Results Ganle keli could significantly reduce NO, NOS and iNOS contents, effectively prevent the expression of ?-SMA, and significantly reduce ?-SMA mRNA in liver fibrosis rats. Conclusion Ganle keli can effectively inhibit the expression of ?-SMA in CCl4-induced fibrotic liver in rats.

Objective To study the effect of quercetin on proliferation and expression of P38MAPK and HMGB1 protein in neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts induced by TNF-α.Methods Purified cardiac fibroblasts were obtained by trypsin digestion and differential adherence method.The proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts was detected by MTT assay.The expression of P38MAPK and HMGB1 protein was detected by Western blot.Results Quercetin had no effect on the proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts in the basal state but inhibited the proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts induced by TNF-α,and the A value of each group was increased with the increase of quereetin concentration(P＜0.05).The exspression of P38MAPK、HMGB1 were decresed with the icrease of quercetin.Conclusion Quercetin may inhibit the proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts induced by TNF-α.The mechanism may be inhibit the expression of HMGB1 through P38MAPK signaling pathway.

[Objective] To observe the clinical effects of medical ozone(O3)combined with sodium hyaluronate(SH)in treatment of knee osteoarthritis.[Methods]One hundred and twenty patients with knee osteoarthritis were randomly divided into three groups:A,B and C(40 in each group).The patients in group A were treated with intra-articular injection of 15 ml(35 ug/ml)medical ozone in the first week,25 mg sodium hyaluronate in the second week and repeated 15 ml(35 ug/ml)medical ozone in the third week.The patients in group B were treated with intra-articular injection of 15 ml medical ozone once a week for 3 weeks.The patients in group C were treated with intra-articular injection of 25 mg sodium hyaluronate once a week for 5 weeks.VAS score and clinical results of the three groups were recorded and compared preoperatively and at 1,2 and 3 months postoperatively.[Results]The VAS score of three groups were signifcantely reduced after treatment(P

Objective To investigate the effect of application of 3D printing technology in the rhinoplastic prothesis with the help of the laser scanning 3D technology.Methods Before the rhinoplastic prothesis,we got the whole facial morphology of patients by laser scanning technology,and printed out the facial model which was 1:1 with the real and then discussed with patients to confirm the ideal nose three-dimensional effect.In the process of operation,doctors were guided by the data for the procedure.Results Among 33 patients who were followed up postoperatively,only one patient's nosal tip dropped,then were repaired with her ear cartilage,both of us found satisfactory effect after repair,and without postoperative complications.The rest 32 patients were satisfied with their nose.Conclusions The laser scanning 3D technology is worth trying and using in plastic surgery.

BACKGROUND:With the deepen understanding on the biological function of Rho/ROCK pathway, new ROCK inhibitors continue to be discovered, and ROCK inhibitors show good promoting effects on the survival, proliferation and migration of keratocytes. Research on ROCK inhibitors wil provide more donor materials or seed cels for regenerative medicine and clinical cel transplantation. OBJECTIVE:To summarize and explore the progress in the treatment and application of corneal disease using the ROCK inhibitors Y-27632 and Y-39983. METHODS:The PubMed database and CNKI database were retrieved by computer to search the relevant literature published between 2008 to 2015 using the key words of “corneal endothelial cel, corneal epithelial cel, ROCK inhibitor, Y-39983, Y-27632” in English and Chinese, respectively. Relevant articles in line with the theme were screened and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Totaly 264 papers were initialy searched. At last, 45 papers were selected. Currently there are two main ROCK inhibitors: Y-27632 and Y-39983, but both of which are stil in basic research stage and clinical testing stage. Y-27632 promotes the proliferation and activity of corneal epithelial stem cel after resuscitation; Y-39983 as a novel ROCK inhibitor can be better to inhibit Rho kinases activity than Y-27632, thereby more effectively promoting the healing of the corneal endothelium. There are many studies on the application of ROCK inhibitors in corneal treatment, but not a stable method established to obtain seed cels. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and how to overcome these disadvantages and to find fast and stable access to seed cels is the future direction of development.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of Foley catheter (FC) and prostaglandins (PG) for cervical ripening used in labor induction of late pregnant women with unfavorable cervix. Methods Several databases including Cochrane Library,Embase,PubMed,Elsevier,Wanfang Medical Database, CNKI, VIP were searched for collecting the related literatures according to criteria for inclusion and exclusion.Meta analysis was performed by applying software Review Manager 5.2. Results Thirty randomized controlled trials were included.The FC group presented significantly lower risk of excessive uterine contraction [OR= 0.38,95%CI(0.19,0.75),P<0.05] than the PG group.There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of Cesarean section rate, vaginal delivery rate, Bishop score improvement, duration of induction to delivery, neonatal birth weight, or in neonatal outcome. Conclusion This study shows that FC has good promoting effect of cervical maturity and maternal￣ neonatal outcomes, and rarely produces excessive uterine contraction.It is safe and equally effective as PG does.The approach is easy to operate and worth to apply in clinical use.
