Objective Studing the relationship among matrixmetal-loproteinnse2 (MMP2), the tissue inhibitors of metalloprotein-ase2 (TIMP2) and chnicopathological characteristics such as histological grade, clinicopathological stage of the rectal cancer. Assessing the significance of MMP2 and TIMP2 expression in rec-tal cancer for prognosis and treatment. Methods To test the expression level of MMP2 and TIMP2 in rectal caneer patients with immunohistochemisty method. Results were analysised with χ2 test. The Kaplan-Meier (Log-rank test) was used for univariate survival analysis. Results The positive rates of MMP2 and T1MP2 ex-pression in rectal cance are higher in comparison with normal tissues. With MMP2 have a trendence of increas-ing the positive expression of TIMP2 decreases. Conclusion MMP2 and TIMP2 relate obviously with the clini-copathological character of the rectal cancer. They may play an important role in the proliferation, invasion and of the cancer. Testing the level of expression of MMP2 and TIMP2 may be helpful to prejudge the prognosis of the patients with rectal cancer. Some new therapic methods relating to MMP2 and TIMP2 may give patients with rectal cancer a more satisfying treatment.

Objective To analyze the clinical effects aftet one year of LASIK for myopia. Methods According to the preoperative diopters of the myopia, the patients were divided into three groups, group Ⅰ: 57 eyes( < - 6.00D), group Ⅱ: 109 eyes( - 6.25~ - 10.00D) ,group Ⅲ :31 eyes( > - 10.25D~ - 15.00D). The patients were followed up 1 year. Re- sults In groups,the percentage of the uncorrected visual acuity equal or more than 1.0 was 94.3%,80.3%,42.0% re- spectivdy. The percentage of there sidual refractive error within ±0.50D was 99.3% ,85.7% ,59.7%. The spherical e- quivalent was stable in 3 months after LASIK. The complications are few. Conclusion LASIK is a safe,effective and good predictable method for treatment of myopia.

Objective To study the impact of capitation payment on obstetric indicators for the maternity insurance of urban workers in Yinchuan city.Methods Collection of indicators on lying-in women hospitalized at the obstetrics departments of designated hospitals in Yinchuan,in the period of 2011 to 2012 when the capitation payment was put in place.Such indicators include the percentage of uterine-incision delivery,diagnostics and therapeutic expenses,drug expenses,and average days of stay,along with mortality of pregnant and lying-in women and that of newborns,which are used as indicators to measure quality of care.Results The capitation payment policy has witnessed drops in the percentage of uterine-incision delivery,cost per inpatient,drug expenses per inpatient and average days of stay among urban workers covered by the insurance.The drops amount to 10% for cost per inpatient and 45% for drug expenses per inpatient.The differences found in pregnant and lying-in women are not statistically significant.Conclusion Capitation payment is conducive to dropping the percentage of uterine-incision delivery and medical expenses,and saving medical insurance payment,for the sake of optimal use of healthcare resources.

Objective To study clinical outcomes of cross-leg fibula flap for difficult reconstruction of an extensive injury in the lower extremity,which included large soft-tissue defects and long infected bone and tibia defects combined with vascular injury.Methods From September 2004 to September 2008,8 cases with an extensive injury in the lower extremity,which included large soft-tissue defects and long infected bone and tibia defects with vascular injury,were retrospectively analyzed,including 6 males and 2 females with an average age of 36 years (range,19-55 years).The course of disease ranged from 2 weeks to 3 months (average,2 months).The bone defect length ranged from 8 to 20 cm (average,13 cm),and the skin defect area varied from 10 cm×7 cm to 22 cm×12 cm.After thorough debridement,cross-leg fibula flap was used to repair the tibial defect and concomitant soft tissue defect.The pedicles were divided at 4-6 weeks after the initial surgery.The important technical considerations were outlined.Results All 8 patients were followed up for 6 to 36 months (average,24 months).The flaps survived in all 8 patients,and no infection and osteomyelitis happened.The flap transplantations healed at two weeks after operation with good shape.The fractures healed in all of patients with an average period of 11 months (range,6-15 months).All of patients recovered to walk without aid.According to Edwards classification of tibial fractures,4 cases were classified as good,2 as acceptable,and 2 as poor.Conclusion The cross-leg fibula flap is relatively simple,liable for the treatment of an extensive injury in the lower extremity.
