1.Research progress on suture and fixation approach of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair in suture-bridge technique
Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics 2016;36(7):443-448
With advances in arthroscopic surgery, arthroscopic repair for rotator cuff tears is often used by surgeons. Surgi?cal methods have already developed from simple single?row fixation and double?row fixation to complicated suture?bridge fixation. Although arthroscopic suture?bridge rotator cuff repair has been proposed to be advantageous over single?row and double?row fixa?tion in biomechanical constructs, the failure of rotator cuff repair is still higher. Different suture methods of medical row anchor in arthroscopic suture?bridge technique may change the suture?tendon loading and decrease the retear of suture?tendon. And differ?ent fixation methods of lateral row anchor in arthroscopic suture?bridge technique may decrease the anchor pull?out. These will be useful to decrease the failure of arthroscopic suture?bridge technique. There will be a good outcome if optical suture and fixation approach can be chosen according to the quality and retraction of rotator cuff, suture tension and the bone quality of the greater tu?berosity in arthroscopic suture?bridge technique.

Objective To study the occurrence of BRCA1 MSI in endometrial cancer and its relationship with clinic pathologic features; to explore the correlation between MSI and protein expression in BRCA1 gene. Methods Application of PCR-SSCP and DNA sequence analysis method was used to study D17S579 and D17S1349 in 49 sporadic endometrial cancer tissues, 20 cases with endometrial atypical hyperplasia and 28 cases with normal endometrial tissues. Results In the total samples of D17S579 and D17S1349, the three groups were significantly different: 34.69%(17/49) in the endometrial cancer group, 10%(2/20) in the endometrial atypical hyperplasia group and 7.14%(2/28) in the normal endometrium group (χ2= 11.208, P = 0.004). BRCA1 MSI positive rate related to the pathology grade and clinical stage, but no relationship was found in muscular infiltration depth, lymph node metastasis and histopathology types. In the endometrial cancer group, BRCA1 MSI positive rate and BRCA1 protein expression were in moderate correlated negatively (r = -0.779, P = 0.000). Conclusion BRCA1 MSI might play a role in the development of endometrial cancer, and low expression of BRCA1 protein. BRCA1 MSI might be associated with pathology grade and clinical stages in EC.
