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 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 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.

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.
