Long noncoding RNAs( lncRNAs)are a class of non-protein-coding RNA species that are greater than 200 nucleotides in length. LncRNAs regulate gene expression at the epigenetic,transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels, and are widely implicated in the physiological and pathological processes. Recent evidences indicated that lncRNAs play important roles in the development and progression of many digestive system diseases. Studies focusing on lncRNAs may provide valuable data for the prediction,diagnosis,therapeutics and prognosis assessment for these diseases. In this article,the fundamental principles and progress in study on lncRNAs in digestive system diseases were summarized.

Objective: To analyze the Effect of isokinetic training on knee injury patients’ recovery function. Methods: Choose knee injury patients between October 2012 to October 2013 as research object, randomly divided into control group received conventional training, and observe group received isokinetic training, each with 49 cases, detecting knee function after training, stretching flexor muscle strength, range of motion. Results: 1) After training ,both groups of patients inflammation Lysholm knee function scores were higher than before,and observation group patients Lysholm knee function score were significantly higher; 2)After training, both groups extensor flexor muscle strength were higher than before,and the observation group patients’ stretched flexor PT, AP, MRTW level were higher; 3)After eight weeks of training and 16 weeks, observation group patients’ knee extension, knee flexion angles were significantly higher.Conclusion:Isokinetic exercise training can improve knee joint function in patients, improve muscle strength while expanding its range of motion, improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective To study comparatively reduction and prevention of surgery-induced peritoneal adhesion by methylene blue and hyaluronate sodium. Methods 46 patients with acute diffuse peritonitis or adhesion intestinal ileus were divided at random into 3 groups: methylene blue ( MB) group, hyaluronate sodium (HS) group and control ( C ) group. The alteration of postoperation recovery,serum MDA, TNF? and erythrocytes SOD in patients were investigated. Results The recuperation in group MB was better than in group C (P

2500mg/kg ( ig ) gave no any toxic symptom nor death. In long-term toxicity test, 50, 1000 and 2000mg/kg?d-1 ig on 30~90 consecutive days to rats and 280 and 560mg/kg?d-1 ig on 90 consecutive days to dogs respectively, revealed no significant toxicity in general physical signs, body weight, appearance. behavious, routine urine test, routine blood test, liver and kidney function tests, histological examinations of important organs, blood biochemistry tests and electrocardiogram, except that the platelet numbers of both animals increased.

BACKGROUND: With the development of new materials and the improvement of prosthesis design, total knee arthroplasty(TKA), a commonly used surgery, has exhibited satisfying effect on the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthrosis. However, many problems still remain a headache to operation performers.OBJECTIVE: To discuss how to select the prosthesis for total knee replacement and to summarize the key factors that affect the curative effect.DESIGN: A controlled study of the effect before and after the operation.SETTING: Department of Orthopedics, First Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-six patients(24 males and 12 females) who received TKA in the Department of Orthopaedics, First Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University during February 2000 to September 2003 were included in this study.METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out. Thirty-six patients(48knees) underwent total knee replacement, and the knee joint function was evaluated with American John N Install scoring system. The post-operation effect was evaluated by comparing the scores of each diseased knee before and after the operation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The function of knees and the score of every knee before and after operation were evaluated.RESULTS: The mean score before operation was 39, but it was 85 after follow-up visit. Totally 95% of them were up to the standard. The pain was reduced after the operation. The flexion-extension function and mobility of the knee joints improved obviously.CONCLUSION: TKA with posterior stabilized prosthesis and resection of posterior cruciate ligament(PCL) improved the function of the diseased knees after the operation. And the operation was simple and without complications. The key factors that affect the curative effect include the mechanical balance of the soft tissues during the operation, perioperative anticoagulant treatment for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis(DVT) and postoperative rehabilitation training. Peripheral tissue of knee joints should be released adequately; otherwise, it may cause unstable joint or limitation of joint activity.

Objective To explore an effective and viable way to establish small-for-size liver transplantation model in rats.Methods Male Lewis rats were used as donors and recipients,the grafts were implanted according to Kamada's 2-coff method.Animals were divided into the following groups:Group I (n=28):30% size graft liver transplantation using a median lobe graft,with left lobe,right lobe,caudate lobe and triangle lobe removed in situ;Group Ⅱ (n=36) :30% size graft liver transplantation using a median lobe graft,with an improved technic of lobe resection.7-day survival rat and the technical complications including bleeding,IVC or portal vein stricture and bile leakage were compared between the groups.Results Compared to the Group Ⅰ,the incidence of IVC stricture was significantly decreased in the Group Ⅱ.Other complications showed no significant difference between the two groups.No significant difference were observed in the 7-day survival rate between the two groups(33%,9/28 vs 60%,21/36),( X2 = 0.272,P ＞ 0.05 ),though Group Ⅱ had more survivors 7 days after liver transplantation.Conclusion With improved method of lobe resection,more effective and viable 30% small-for-size rat liver transplantation model can be established.

Objective To evaluate the effect of live frog skin in the treatment of deep partial thickness and full thickness burn. Methods 159 burned patients were randomly divided into two groups: wounds treated with frog skin or suckling pig skin. Wounds were covered by frog skin(35 cases) or by suckling pig skin(31 cases) after surgical debridement or when the crust began to dissolve for patients with deep partial thickness burns, and by frog skin (49 cases) or by sucking pig skin(44 cases) after surgical debridment or autologous skin grafting and escharetomy for patients with full thickness burns. There was no significant difference between the two groups in mean age, burn area and burn type. Results Compared with the suckling pig skin, frog skin could remarkably decrease days of wound recovery and antibiotics administration, and reduced incidence of wound infections and rejection in patients with full thickness burns. Conclusions Frog skin possessed more powerful anti-infection ability, and rare rejection phenomenon in the treatment of burn wounds. It may be a suitable biological dressing for burn wounds.
