To explore the effect of allogenic achilles tendon on one-stage reconstruction of antedor/postedor cruciate ligaments,3 cases with ruptured anterior/posterior cruciate ligaments and received allogenic achilles tendon reconstruction,at Department of Orthopaedics,General Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police Forces,from June 207 to April 2008,were collected.A more than 6-month follow-up showed that all cases could walk at 12 weeks postoperatively.Anterior andposterior drawing tests,as well as inversion and extroversion stress test were negative,with 100° movement ranges.In addition,no serious complication occurred.The Lysholm knee fuction scores were 87,83 and 85,respectively.The results suggest that the allogenic achilles tendon seems to be a satisfactory treatment option for one-stage anterior/posterior cruciate ligaments reconstruction,which has merits of easy operation,small trauma and good short-term results.However,further research is needed to determine the role of allogenic achilles tendon in knees with multi-ligament injury.

The saccadic movement of patients with Parkinson's disease was abnormal and might be related to the severity of the disease.The abnormal saccadic movement was not related to the symptoms of Parkinson's disease directly,the accesses of controlling limbs' and eyes' movement are comparatively independent.

Alzheimer disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disease. Drosophila has been regard as one of the ideal models for Alzheimer because of its unique advantage on genetic manipulation. AD transgenic drosophila models not only help to elucidate the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease, but also provide potential screening models for drugs to treat the disease. In this review, we summarize the recent research progress using AD transgenic drosophila.

PAX2 gene encodes a nuclear transcription factor and plays a pivotal role for embryonic kidney development.It is expressed during the entire developmental process of pronephron,mesonephron and metanephron,involving in the regulation of embryonic kidney development at various fetal stages,but its expression disappeared in mature nephrons.Recently,it was found that PAX2 was re-expressed in nephropathy.Gene mutation and re-expression of PAX2 are closely related with congenital and acquired renal diseases.This paper reviews the role and significance of PAX2 expression in kidney disease from the aspects of normal expression,gene mutation and abnormal expression.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of the kidney injure in the newborn rats with endotoxemia.Methods Eighty Wistar rats aged 7 days were randomly divided into 2 groups:control group (intraperitoneal injection of saline of 0.1 ml;n = 40),lipopolysaccharide(LPS) group(intraperitoneal injection of LPS of 5 mg/kg;n =40).The rats in either group were killed at 1 h,4 h,8 h and 12 hours after intraperitoneal injection,respectively.The expressions of NF-κB and TGF-β1 in the kidney were detected by using the immunohistochemical assay.Renal ultrastructural changes was observed with a CM100 Philips electron microscope.Results The NF-κB in control group had no expression.NF-κB in LPS group mainly expressed in the renal tubular epithelial cell,increased at 1 h after test and peaked at 8 h,and slightly descended at 12 h.The expression of TGF-β1 in control group was slight,and had not show significant difference from control group at 1 h,4 h and 8 h,but significantly higher than that in control group at 12 h.In LPS group,newborn rat renal glomerular basement membrane was complete,part epithelial cell foot processes were fused and renal tubules epithelial cell mild mitochondria vacuolization was found at 4 h.Renal glomeruli epithelial cell foot processes obvious confluenced,quantities of mesangial cells mitochondria vacuole,and renal tubules epithelial cell mitochondria expanded to bubbles at 12 h.Conclusion The NF-κB involves in the pathogenesis of kidney damage induced by endotoxemia,but TGF-β1 may help to repair the damaged kidney,and may repress the production of NF-κB.

Paired box2 ( PAX2 ) is a transciption factor which mainly expressed in the developing kid-ney. Researches indicate that PAX2 promote the transcription through interactions with the adaptor PAX transac-tivation domain interacting protein(PTIP). Otherwise,PAX2 protein can lead to chromatin compaction and gene silencing through interactions with Grg4. PAX2 reexpressed in acute kidney injury and involved in promoting cell proliferation. Congenital PAX2 gene mutation is closely related to congenital abnormalies of the kidney and uri-nary tract. In chronic kidney disease,PAX2 promote proliferation and cyst formation. Here,the recent researches on the function of PAX2 and its role in acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease are reviewed.

Renal function was studied in 55 prematures (PTS) without complication, 28 male and 27 female. All PTS were divided into three groups according to age of days(AD), gestational age(GA), and body weight(BW)。BUN and SCr were significantly correlated conversely with AD, GA and BW (P

Objective To evaluate the eyeball movement examination on Parkinson' s disease (PD) and investigate their vestibular function.Methods Thirty healthy volunteers and 55 PD patients served as subjects.Thirty-one patients had bradykinesia, 23 patients had resting tremor at first visit and 1 had both.Electronystagmogram examinations were performed in all the subjects.The eyeball movment gain (G) of PD group was compared with controls and the difference between the bradykinesia group and resting tremor group was analyzed.Dissymmetry of the bilateral pursuit movement was investigated.Results The eyeball movement gains decreased in PD patients (Left G 0.79±0.10, Right G 0.78±0.11) significantly (U = 394.500, t = 3.547, P < 0.01) compared with controls (Left G 0.86±0.05, Right G 0.85±0.06).There was no difference (t = -0.100,2.005, P0.05) between the bradykinesia group (Left G 0.79± 0.14,Right G 0.74±0.14) and the resting tremor group ( Left G 0.79±0.06,Right G 0.81±0.07).The dissymmetry of the bilateral movement increased significantly (U = 755.500, P < 0.05) in PD group (1.03±0.97) than in controls (0.87±0.86).Conclusion The velocity of the eyeball movement has decreased in patients with PD.There is no difference of the pursuit gain between bradykinesia group and the resting tremor group.The bilateral vestibular function is involved dissymmetrically.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of three common susceptive gene retared hearing loss in the patients with the congenital deafness in Liuzhou.Methods 161 patients with congenital hearing loss were diagnosed with audiologic evolutions,including newborns and outpatients.The blood samples of all patients were taken for the extraction of DNA which was amplified by PCR.The common mutationsl hot spots of the mitochondrial DNA 12SrRNA,GJB2 and SLC26A4 were examined by restricted enzyme and directed sequencing.Results 1 case(0.62%)was found to carry mitoehondrial DNA 12SrRNA A1555G and 4 patients(2.48%)carried heterozygotes or homozygotes pathologic mutations of GJB2.10 patients(6.21%)were heterozygous carriers with pathologic mutations,IVS7-2 A>G,in the SLC26A4 gene.The detection rate of GJB2,mitochondrial DNA A1555G and SLC26A4 mutations in 161 patients were 9.31%.Conclusion The patients with congenital hearing loss distributed different minority groups in liuzhou zone.The mutational frequencies of the three common gene related hearing loss in the patients of Liuzhou were noticeably lower than the data reported in other regions in China.The gene screening for deafness was very important for early diagnosis and treatment.
