BACKGROUND:LARS artificial ligament was designed by Laboureau from France using polyethylene terephthalates with the anatomic structure of human ligament and mechanical principle of weight.This ligament is not only accorded with physiological structure of normal anterior cruciate ligament,but also significantly elevates anti-torque,can resist repetitive twist,bend and excessive traction.OBJECTIVE:To summarize characteristics of clinical application of LARS artificial ligament in transplant reconstruction following acute anterior cruciate ligament of knee joint injury.METHODS:A total of 23 patients with acute anterior cruciate ligament injury,comprising 17 males and 6 females,aged 21-54 years,were selected.Time-from injury to surgery was 3 days to 3 weeks.Polyethylene terephthalatas LARS artificial ligament made in France was used to reconstruct damaged ligament.The transplant was evaluated before and after implantation according to Lysholm knee joint criteria.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Following 11.2 months (10-14 months) of follow-up,unstable symptoms of affected knees of all 23 cases disappeared.Anterior and posterior drawer tests were negative,with good joint function.Average extension and flexion degree was 0°-120°.In accordance with Lysholm knee joint score,significant difference was found from (40.34±4.00) points preoperatively to (90.21±4.00) points postoperatively (P<0.01).They could do common athletic activities at about 2 months following surgery.In some cases,magnetic resonance examination demonstrated that residue ligament gradually grew into artificial ligament,which gradually became thicker.Above-mentioned results have verified that under an arthroscope,reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament using polyethylene terephthalates LARS artificial ligament showed simple operation and small wound,which may lead to immediate stability,early rehabilitation exercises.Simultaneously,interlacing of residue ligament and artificial ligament keeps the nerve conduction pathway of propdoceptive sense,which prevents joint function limitation greatly.Moreover,short-term outcomes are satisfactory.

Objective To explore egg mimotope of Schistosoma japonicum that can be used in the development of diagnostic reagents for schistosomiasis.\ Methods\ By performing three rounds of biopanning in the affinity selection before picking out single clones for identification, target specific phages were effectively enriched from a random 15\|peptides phage library with an immobilized mAb 6B12 which is specific to egg antigen of S\^japonicum as a bait. By using ELISA, competitive ELISA with natural egg antigen as competitor, and Western blotting, 13 phage clones with high affinity and specificity to 6B12 were obtained and amplified from 400 single clones. \ Results \ DNA sequencing revealed that all the 13 selected single clones were identical in displaying gene sequence. Serum samples were tested by ELISA for the presence of IgG antibodies to the phages with mimic epitope, and showed that there was a significant difference between healthy volunteers and schistosomiasis patients.\ Conclusion \ It is possible that the phage display peptide antigen, egg mimotope of S.japonicum may be a replacement of natural egg antigen for the diagnosis of schistosomiasis.

Objective:To define the role of lymph tracers in lymph node dissection and pathological examination of papillary thyroid carcinoma. Methods:Patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma who met inclusion criteria were enrolled and randomly assigned into the three groups, namely, carbon nanoparticle (CN), methylene blue (MB), and conventional surgery (CS) groups. The number of detected lymph nodes in each group was summed, and pathological examination was conducted. Histological examination of the lymph node specimens in the tracer group was performed based on the classification of staining and nonstaining groups. Results:Major complications such as anaphylaxis did not occur after injection of CN and MB. The average of the detected lymph nodes was higher in the tracer group than in the CS group, and the detection rate of the lymph node was higher in the CN group than in the MB group. In addition, the rate of cancer metastasis was higher in the group with stained lymph node than in the group with unstained lymph node. The index of the CN group was higher than that of the MB group. Conclusion:The tracing effect and lymphatic tropism of CNs were stronger than MB. The thyroid lymph tracer technique may promote the normalization and thoroughness of lymph node dissection in thyroid cancer.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of bile duct injuries in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods The clinical data of 11 243 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy between October 1992 and December 2013 in the Xianyang Center Hospital were studied retrospectively.The risk factors of bile duct injuries were analyzed using the Chi-square test to determine the independent risk factors of bile duct injuries.Results Univariate analysis showed that bile duct injuries were associated with male,age ≥65 years,BMI ≥25 kg/m2,staging of inflammation,gallbladder atrophy on ultrasonography,thickness of gallbladder wall on ultrasonography,anatomy of Calot 's triangle and operator's experience (all P ＜ 0.05).Multi-factor and non conditional Logistic regression analyses showed that the independent risk factors of bile duct injury were old men,gallbladder atrophy,anatomy of Calot's triangle and operator's experience (All P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Old men,gallbladder atrophy,anatomy of Calot's triangle and operator's experience were independent risk factors of bile duct injuries.

Objective To investigate the expression of CYP2W1 in gastric cancer and its effect on proliferation and invasion.Methods CYP2W1 protein expression in 326 gastric cancertissues and in the corresponding normal gastric mucosa was measured by immunohistochemstry.The expression of CYP2W1 mRNA in 10 randomly chosen gastric cancer tissues and its corresponding normal gastric mucosa was tested by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.4 groups pairs of gastric cancer and normal gastric mucosa cell lines were constructed.CYP2W1 expression in each of the cell line was tested.The effect of CYP2W1 expression on the proliferation and invasion capacity of the gastric cancer cells was studied by MTT experiment and transwell cell experiment.Results Expression of CYP2W1 protein in the gastric cancer tissues is higher than that in normal gastric mucosa (26.7％ vs.0,x2 =100.396,P ＜ 0.05).CYP2W1 mRNA in the gastric cancer tissues is higher than that in normal gastric mucosa [(0.413 ± 0.026) vs.(0.074 ± 0.005),t =28.115,P ＜ 0.05].CYP2W1 protein expression in the gastric cancer cell lines is higher than that in normal gastric mucosa cell lines [(0.481 ± 0.024) vs.0,t =49.097,P ＜ 0.05].The growth capacity of CYP2W1 positive gastric cancer cell is stronger than that of CYP2W1 negative cells (P ＜ 0.05),and CYP2W1 positive gastric cancer cells are also more of invasiveness,[(63 ±8) vs.(18 ±3),t =24.134,P ＜0.05].Conclusions CYP2W1 is only expressed in the gastric cancer tissues,hence it is closely related to the growth multiplication,and invasiveness of gastric cancer cells.

In this paper, Chinese medicine theory about Fei Qi being responsible for administration and regulationwas carried out as a topic. The modern scientific research achievement had been integrated to propose a hypothesis about the function of Fei Qi that related with postganglionic fibers dominated autonomic effector's physiological functions. By analyzing the mechanism and clinical application of adrenergic receptors and cholinergic receptors agonist or antagonist drugs, and summarizing some related effective compounds from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), we tried to clarify the basic role of Fei Qi is checking the balance of yin and yang, which is consistent with sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve regulated functions. After interpreting of modern biological knowledge, we aimed to develop a systematic integrated medicine which fused eastern and western wisdom. Finally, the guiding role of the theory derived from visceral manifestation should be expected fully in the research and development of modern drugs. The application of this theory will be a profound meaning to lead the prevention and clinical treatment for a variety of refractory diseases.

Objective To observe the effect of peripheral blood microRNA-182 (miR-182) combined with interleukin-17 (IL-17) in the early diagnosis of cerebral infarction (CI) in patients with eclampsia. Methods A prospective non-randomized controlled study was conducted. The patients with eclampsia admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Liaocheng People's Hospital from January 1st, 2013 to September 30th 2016 were enrolled. Cerebral imaging was conducted in 7 days after admission to make a definite diagnosis of the occurrence of CI, excluding patients with cerebral hemorrhage. Patients were divided into CI group and non-CI group. Twenty healthy women of childbearing age were selected as control group. Peripheral venous blood of all patients with eclampsia at 1 day after admission, the expression of miR-182 was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR), regulatory T cells (Treg) and T helper 17 cells (Th17) ratio was detected by flow cytometry, and the level of plasma IL-17 was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between the indexes. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the diagnostic value of each index for CI in patients with eclampsia. Results In the 30 patients with eclampsia, there were 13 cases of CI, including 10 case of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) and 3 cases of arterial thrombus; 17 cases of non-CI, including 15 cases of reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) and 2 cases without obvious abnormalities. Compared with control group, the levels of miR-182, Th17% and IL-17 in non-CI group and CI group were significantly higher, and the Treg% was significantly lower. The levels of parameters mentioned above were further increased in CI group than those in non-CI group [miR-182 (2-ΔΔCt): 2.35±0.79 vs. 1.75±0.56, Th17%: (5.16±1.89)% vs. (3.93±1.92)%, IL-17 (ng/L):37.45±6.20 vs. 26.65±5.13, all P < 0.05]. Pearson correlation analysis showed that miR-182 was positively correlated with Th17% and IL-17 (r1 = 0.761, r2 = 0.842, both P < 0.01). ROC curves showed that when the cut-off value of miR-182 was 2.88, the diagnosis sensitivity of preeclampsia CI was 84.6%, the specificity was 82.4%, and area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.816 [95%CI confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.641-0.992]; when cut-off value of IL-17 was 34.44 ng/L, diagnosis of preeclampsia CI the sensitivity was 71.5%, the specificity was 85.3%, and AUC was 0.773 (95%CI = 0.602-0.945); when miR-182 was combined with IL-17, the diagnosis sensitivity was 92.3%, specificity was 83.6%, and AUC was 0.896 (95%CI = 0.759-1.032). Conclusions To some extent the expression of miR-182 and IL-17 in peripheral blood can predict the occurrence of CI in early stage. When the two are used together, the predictive value is better.

Objective To study collagen changes in dermis of hairless mice that were exposed to ultraviolet. Methods The hairless mice was irradiated under UVA, UVB and the combination of the two for 20 weeks, total dose of UVA was 222J/cm~2, and that of UVB was 5.9J/cm~2. After irradiation, the dorsal skin's collagens of animals were analysed by computer imaging analysis system, histopathologic examination, specific stains and electorn microscopy. Results The hairless mice exposed to ultraviolet A were unchanged in dermis collagen. The hairless mice was irradiated under UVB and the both UVA and UVB, and the content of collagen was decreased with less affinity for collagen staining. These findings were supported by electron microscopy, which showed fraying, thickened, and proliferating collagen, coalesced into extensive denaturalization. The ratio of types Ⅲ/Ⅰ+Ⅲ collagen was significantly increased. Conclusion The qualitative and quantitative changes of the collagen in the ultraviolet irradiated skin of hairless mice are related to ultraviolet B but not to UVA. UVB is a key factor of skin collagen damage in UV-irradiation.

Objective To study the changes of skin wrinkles in hairless mice while exposed to ultraviolet. Methods The hairless mice were irradiated under long-wave ultraviolet ray (UVA), medium-frequency wave ultraviolet ray (UVB) and the combination of the two for 20 weeks. Total dose of UVA was 222J/cm~2, and that of UVB was 5.9J/ cm~2. After irradiation, the skin wrinkling of animals were analysed by the naked eye, dermatoglyphics enlarges and applied color skin system of pathologic portrait quantitative analysis. Results Control group: The hairless mice skin were fine and delicate, the ditch and ridge of skin distributed even, and had no the obvious cornification. Long wave ultraviolet ray (UVA) set: The skin was slightly rough, skin ditch and ridge distributed still even, and had no obvious cornification; quantitative analysis had no the obvious difference from that of control group. Medium-frequency wave ultraviolet ray (UVB) set: The dermatoglyphics were disorderly, and the skin ditch deepened, widened, and the skin ridge increased the breadth and obvious cornification, and quantitative analysis had obvious difference from that of control group. Long wave and medium-frequency wave ultraviolet ray (UVA+ UVB) set: The dermatoglyphics was disorderly, and the skin ditch deepened, widened, the skin ridge increased the breadth, skin cornification was more obvious, quantitative analysis had obvious difference from that of control group. Conclusions The qualitative and quantitative changes of the wrinkles in the ultraviolet irradiated skin of hairless mice are related to ultraviolet B but not to UVA. UVB is a key factor of skin wrinkling in UV-irradiation.

Objective To promote the use of chemical peeling in facial rejuvenation with the phenol and croton oil peeling agents to the UVA/B-irradiated skin of hairless mice, and to provide the experimental evidence for the clinical application of the treatment of irradiated skin.Methods Sixty BALB/C hairless mice were photo-aged by use of chronic ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B irradiation for 20 weeks. After irradiation the animals were randomly divided into two groups:untreated (10 mice) and treated (50 mice). The phenol and croton oil chemical peeling agents were applied to the dorsal skin of treated animal group while it was full anesthetized. Punch biopsies were taken at 7, 14, 30, 60, and 90 days after peel for histological analysis. At 60 days after irradiation, the skin wrinkling of animals were analyzed by macroscopy, cleavage line amplification, and computer imaging analysis system. Results The treated areas of irradiated skin recovered rejuvenation and exhibited a unique connective tissue layer composed of fine collagen fibers beneath the epidermis. Conclusion The mixture of phenol-croton oil may reverses the visible stigmata of photoaging skin. Our results will be of great help to promote the use of chemical peeling in facial rejuvenation.
