Objective To study the ultrastructure of the anterior cruciate ligament.Methods Specimens were procured from seven patients with arthroscopy and observed under scanning and transmission electron microscope. Results Fibrils of normal anterior cruciate ligament arrayed in compact parallel form with waviness.Connecting fibers existed between fibrils.Diameters of fibrils were different with range of 30nm to 60nm mostly.Fibroblasts were distributed along with the fibrils.Active cells excrete filamentous collagen fibrils.Conclusion The ultrastructure of the anterior cruciate ligament was correlated with its function status.Mature fibroblasts existed in the ligament.

Objective To discuss the correlation between C-peptide level and autonomic neuropathy in diabetic foot in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2 h postprandial blood glucose (2 h-PG) and fasting C-peptide (FC-P) were detected in 124 T2DM patients. The Neuropad was used to test functions of sudomotor nerves in foot. Patients were divided into two groups:diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) group and non-autonomic neuropathy group (NDAN) according to the results of functions of sudomotor nerves in foot. Values of gender, age, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, FBG, 2 h-PG and FC-P were compared between the two groups. The Pearson correlation analysis was carried out between the indexes mentioned above and the time for completing color change of Neuro-pad. Results There were no significant differences in gender, age, FBG and 2 h-PG between two groups (P>0.05). The FC-P level was (1.07 ± 0.75)nmol/L in DAN group, which was significantly lower than that in NDAN group (1.43 ± 1.00) nmol/L (P > 0.05). The time for completing color change of Neuropad was negatively correlated with C-peptide. Conclu-sion The autonomic nerve functions in diabetic foot is closely related with C-peptide. It is inferred that C-peptide may have protective effect on autonomic nerves in diabetic foot.

Objective · To evaluate the association between the abnormal maternal serum markers of alpha fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) and unconjugated estriol (uE3) in the second trimester screening and the adverse obstetric outcomes other than trisomy 21 (T21),trisomy 18 (T18) and open neural tube defects (ONTD), and to provide local data for supporting evidence based clinical managements. Methods · A retrospective cohort study was performed in the women who received second trimester maternal serum screening in the International Peace Maternal and Child Health Hospital between 2012 and 2014, with naturally conceived singleton pregnancies. Obstetric outcomes were followed up by searching electronic medical records within the hospital. Abnormal level of marker was defined as a MOM value ≥ 99th (P99) or ≤ 1st percentile (P1) of the overall screened population. Incidence of an adverse obstetric outcome was compared between the groups with abnormal markers and the control with all markers in normal. Results · ① A total of 25616 pregnancies were included in this study, in which 4526 were identified as having various adverse obstetric outcomes. Among them 4143 pregnancies were with isolated and 383 pregnancies were with co-occurring two or more adverse outcomes. ② When compared to pregnancies with normal levels of all three serum markers, pregnancies with decreased AFP or decreased hCG did not show associations with any adverse obstetric outcomes. However, pregnancies with increased AFP, increased hCG or decreased uE3 were at increased risk for a variety of abnormal pregnancy outcome. In 18 pregnancies with an outcome of fetal chromosomal abnormalities other than T21 and T18, 9 presented with either increased AFP, increased hCG or decreased uE3, with relative risk ratios of 13.33、35.00 and 59.00, respectively. ③ The performance of those markers tended to be improved in a subset of adverse obstetric outcomes, including low birth weight

Objective To investigate the relationship between leptin level of IGR patients and intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid arterial. Methods One hundred and eighteen IGR patents were enrolled into the following three groups according to the result of oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT): 38 cases of the purely impaired fasting glucose (IFG) group, 42 cases of the purely impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) group and 42 cases of the IFG combining with IGT (IFG + IGT) group. Thirty-eight cases with normol glucose tolerance (NGR) were enrolled in the NGR group. The blood fat, fasting blood-glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (insulin), fasting C peptide , 2 h-postprandial blood glucose , 2 h-insulin , 2 h-C peptide , glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), C-reactive protein (CRP), body mass index (BMI), leptin and IMT were determined in patients of the three groups and the healthy controls. The multiple linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between leptin level and IMT , and person correlation was further used to analyze the affinity degree between leptin level and IMT. Results Compared with the NGT group, the inter-group comparison showed that leptin level was significantly increased in the IFG, IGT and (IFG + IGT) groups (P < 0.05, respectively). Compared with the IFG and IGT groups, IMT and the leptin level were increased in the (IFG + IGT) group (P < 0.05, respectively). The multiple linear regression analysis showed that leptin level was correlated with the increase of IMT in the (IFG + IGT) group (P < 0.05), but not in the IFT group and the IGT group. Conclusion The leptin level in the IGR group and the IMT in the IFG + IGT ) group were significantly increased , the leptin level was closely associated with IMT.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and significance of anti-?2-glycoprotein Ⅰ (anti-?2-GPⅠ) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Anti-?2-GPⅠ level was determined in 112 SLE patients, 40 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), 30 patients with Sj?gren′s syndrome (SS) and 40 healthy individuals by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The laboratory and clinical features (thrombosis, fetal loss, etc) were analyzed retrospectively from the clinical database. Results Sensitivities of anti-?2-GPⅠ were 21.4%, 15.0%, 6.7% in SLE, RA and SS, respectively. The specificity of anti-?2-GPⅠ was 88.6% in SLE. Correlations between thrombosis and titers of ACL-IgG/IgM and anti-?2-GPⅠ were statistically significant. No association was found between anti-?2-GPⅠ and other clinical and laboratory features. Conclusion The results indicate that anti-?2-glycoprotein Ⅰ antibodies are common and may play a role in SLE with thrombosis. Combination of ACL and anti-?2-GPⅠ can facilitate the diagnosis of SLE with thrombosis.
