Objective To evaluate the effects of isokinetic quadriceps training with different ranges of motion for improving mal-patellar tracking after total knee replacement (TKR). Methods Isokinetic quadriceps training was administered to 52 TKR cases, involving 66 knee joints with poor patellar tracking. The subjects were randomly allocated into 3 groups for isokinetic training with ranges of 0-30°, 30-60° or 60-90°, with 22 knee joints in each group. The angular velocity was set at 30°/second. X-rays with loading and with 45° knee flexion were taken before and after the training. The lateral patello-femoral angle,the patella index and the patello-femoral index were recorded along with the maximum torque ( MT), the total work ( TW ), and the average work(AW) in the three different ranges of motion. Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) scores were also recorded. Results After 3 months of training, the average lateral patello-femoral angle, patella index, and patello-femoral index in the 0-30° training group were all significantly better than before the training. However, there was no significant difference in these measures for the 30-60° and 60-90° groups. After training average MT, TW and AW increased significantly in all groups, but the improvements were significantly correlated with the differences in lateral patello-femoral angles, patella indices and patello-femoral indices only for the 0-30°group. When compared with the baseline values, a statistically significant difference in HSS score after training was observed only in the 0-30° training group. Conclusions Isokinetic quadriceps training with a 0-30° range of motion can best realign patellar tracking after TKR, and best improve knee function.

Objective To investigate the functional esophageal dismotility in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD) by simultaneous high frequency intraluminal ultrasonography(HFIUS) and esophageal manometry,and evaluate the correlation between the peak pressure and the peak muscle thickness of the esophagus.Besides,to identify the potential efficacy and feasibility of the HFIUS for evaluating the functional gastrointestinal diseases(FGIDs).Methods Ten GERD patients and 5 healthy controls were enrolled into this study.High-frequency ultrasonic probe and esophageal manometry catheter were simultaneous administrated.The cross sectional image of esophageal motion was recorded by HFIUS and was analyzed by the contractility index (CI)of the longitudinal smooth muscle(LSM)and circular smooth muscle(CSM),the duration of the contraction (DC)and the maximum cross section area(CSA)during distension;In addition,esophageal peak pressure during wet-swaltow was measured by manometry.Results Tile contractility index of the LSM and CSM of esophagus at 5 cm,10 cm,1 5 cm and 20 em proximal to the LES was significantly lower in patients with GERD than that of controls(P<0.05).The duration of the contraction was longer in patients with GERD.But there was no siginificant difference of the maximum CSA during distension between GERD patients and normal controls(P>0.05).However,the simultaneous manometry only demonstrated nonspecific esophageal motility disorder on 6 of 10 GERD patients.And there was positive correlation between the peak pressure and the peak muscle thickness at all sites along the axis of the esophagus,revealed the pressure was increasing along with the thickening of the esophageal muscle layers(r=0.552-0.736).Conclusions Functional esophageal dismotility played an important role in the pathogenesis of GERD.Meanwhile,there was positive correlation between the esophageal pressure and the muscle layer thickness of the esophagus.HFIUS can detect the minor changes of the layer structure of the esophagus and is a potentially useful imaging modality for evaluating esophageal dismotility as well as FGIDs.

An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of four quinolones in soil was developed. Soil samples were extracted by a mixture of 50% magnesium nitrate and 10% ammonia(96∶ 4, V/V)with an ultrasonic-assisted extraction, then purified and concentrated by HLB cartridge, and eluted with acetonitrile and 0.067 mol/L phosphoric acid(5∶ 1, V/V). Using acetonitrile and 0.067 mol/L phosphoric acid(pH=2.5) as the mobile phase, these analytes were quantificated by HPLC(fluorimetric detector) at excitation and emission wavelength of 280 nm and 450 nm respectively. The detective limits for four quinolones in soil were from 0.58 to 0.03 g/kg. The recoveries were 60.4% to 99.3% for soil samples. The method was successfully applied to determine the quinolones in soil samples from vegetable fields. Four quinolone compounds were detected to a different extent with total amounts of quinolones ranged from 27.84 to 129.26 μg/kg.

Objective To observe the safety and efficacy of oncolytic adenovirus (H101) implantation under EUS guidance combined with gemcitabine in patients of non-operative pancreatic cancer.Methods From May 2007 to December 2007,6 patients with non-operative pancreatic cancer were enrolled in the study.H101 were implanted into 3 sites of the tumor under EUS guidance.Gemcitabine Was siren systemicly on d2,d9 and d16 after implantation, and repeated 1 month later.Tumor size and perfusion were assessed by computed reconstruction and perfusion imaging.Changes of clinical indices,adverse effects and complications were also recorded.Results All patients completed the two periods of treatment as planned.Tumor size decreased in 5 cases(18.21%-38.65%),but without statistical difference (P=0.078).The area of liver metastasis Was found decreased in 1 ease.Perfusion imaging showed significant increase of mean transit time(P=0.049) and improvement in blood flow,blood volume and permeability surface at 2 weeks after the treatment. KPS increased in 2 patients and pain score decreased in 3 patients.Three patients died 2.5,2.5 and 3 months respectively after the procedure.while 3 other patients are still alive with the survival time of 3,5 and 10 months. Major adverse effects associated with H101 implantation were fever and flu-like symptoms.Mild acute pancreatitis occurred in 1 cage.Conclusion EUS guided oncolytic adenovirus implantation in advanced pancreatic cancer is feasible and safe.With the combination of gemcitabine,it is capable of shrinking the tumor size,destroying the angiogenesis of the tumor and improving the patients'living quality.

Objective To evaluate the effect of postoperative thyroid residual tissue on 131I treatment of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) metastases in patients with DTC.Methods Patients with thyroid residual tissue and lymph node metastases or distant organ metastases were confirmed by 131I whole body scan after 131I treatment of DTC from January 2004 to January 2013 in Dalian.The clinical data were divided into the cured group and the non-cured group according to the final results of mI treatment.The per unit area count value (Kc/cm2) of residual thyroid remnant (NTR),lymph node metastases (LNM) and distant metastases (DM) were measured and performed semi-quantitative analysis.The thresholds of the analysis results were calculated by the Bootstrap method.Results A total of 114 patients were studied,aged from 14 to 80 years old,including 47 males and 67 females;the ratio of males to females was 1.0:1.4.There were significant differences in NTR unit area counts (0.25 vs 1.29 Kc/cm2) between the cured group and the non-cured group (72 in the cured group and 42 in the non-cured group,U =0.001,P < 0.05);there was no significant difference in LNM unit area counts (0.21 vs 0.41 Kc/cm2) between the cured group and the non-cured group (U =0.052,P > 0.05).Those with the ratio of residual area to lymph node metastases (N/L) and the ratio of residual area to distant metastases(N/D) less than 1.7 had a better 131I treatment;unit area N/L greater than 4.9 and unit area N/D greater than 8.0 had a poor therapeutic effect.Conclusion Excessive residual tissue after surgery results in poor efficacy of 131I treatment;semi-quantitative analysis for whole body scan after 131I treatment can predict the efficacy of 131I treatment.
