Objective Study on the clinic value of the application of two-dimensional and three-dimensional sonography on observing the fetal facial structure. Methods Applying Voluson 730 three-dimensional probe surface imaging mode and two-dimensional probe to make sonography on 16～48 weeks fetus in 1805 cases, emphasized on observing the fetal facial structure, saving the image information, making three-dimensional reconstruction and comparing the result of post partum and the result after induction of labor. Results In 1805 cases, applying two-dimensional and three-dimensional sonography to observe the facial structure of the fetus of 23～35 weeks, the display rate is 93.1% and 95.1% respectively, and there is no obvious difference between the two modes. The three-dimensional is higher than two-dimensional for the fetus less than 23 weeks, with the display rate 69.6% and 84.8% respectively, and the two-dimensional is a bit higher than three-dimensional for the fetus more than 35 weeks, with the display rate 90.4% and 88.7% respectively. One cleft lip case is excluded. Conclusion As long as mastering the optimum examination time and operation skill, there is no obvious difference between the display rate of two-dimensional and three-dimensional sonography on observing the fetal facial structure, the two modes can be complementary in the work to improve the accuracy of the diagnosis and be favorable for the prepotency.

Liposarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma.Liposarcoma is widely diverse in the clinical,pathological,and molecular characteristics.Surgery is still the mainstay of liposarcoma therapy and the only cure way.With the development of molecular biology,as well as the discovery of molecular pathways,oncogenes and anti-oncogenes,it is possible to treat liposarcoma with targeted drugs.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of choledochojejunostomy with a subcutaneous blind loop of interposed jejunum for treating postoperative residual biliary stones.Methods The clinical data of 72 cases of choledochojejunostomy with subcutataneous blind loop of interposed jejunum were retrospectively analysed.Results After exploration of distal common bole duct,and when a No.8-10 bougie could pass through the sphincter of Oddi,a 10-15 cm segment of jejunum with its vascular pedicle was mobilized,and an end to-side choledochojejunal anastomosis was performed at the proximal side of the jejunal segment and its distal end was converted to a blind loop and fixed subcutaneously to relevant abdominal wall.A T-tube for external drainage was inserted across the choledochojejunal anastomosis and exited through the blind jejunal loop.Seventy-two patients were cured without any complication or mortality.Conclusions The procedure is simple and minimally invasive,so that it could be carried out very easily and quickly by general surgeons with basic choledochojejunostomy skill.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of oral use of Yibai Tongfeng Pills for the treatment ofgouty arthritis with damp-heat obstruction. Methods One hundred and sixteen gouty arthritis patients were randomized into treatment group (N = 62) and control group (N = 54). The treatment group was treated with Yibai Tongfeng Pills orally, and the control group was treated with oral use of Colchicine Tablets and Sodium Bicarbonate Tablets at acute stage and with oral use of Benzbromarone Tablets at remission stage. Twelve weeks constituted one treatment course. Clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated after treatment, and the changes of C-reactive protein(CRP), white blood cell(WBC) and uric acid(UA) levels in the blood of the two groups were observed before and after treatment. Results (1) The total effective rate of the treatment group was 93.55%and that of the control group was 83.33%, the difference being significant(P<0.05).(2) After treatment, the scores of syndrome manifestations of the two groups were obviously decreased(P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment), and the decrease in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group(P<0.05) . (3) After treatment, CRP, WBC and UA levels in the blood of the two groups were much improved(P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment), and the improvement of CRP in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group(P<0.05), while the differences of the improvement of WBC and UA between the two groups were insignificant (P > 0.05). Conclusion Yibai Tongfeng Pills are effective for the treatment of gouty arthritis with damp-heat obstruction by improving syndrome manifestations and rapidly decreasing CRP level.

Aim To investigate the effect of small in-terfering RNA(siRNA) targeting DNMT1 gene on cell proliferation, apoptosis and histone modulation in acute lymphoid leukemia cell line, Molt-4. Methods The small interfering RNA targeting DNMT1 gene was transfected into Molt-4 cells by LipofectamineTM 2000. The DNMT1 mRNA and protein level were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Cell proliferation was de-termined by MTT. Cell apoptosis was measured by Flow Cytometry. The expression of Bcl-2, procaspase-3, P15, histone methylation and histone acetylation was detected by Western blot. Results DNMT1 was suppressed by siRNA targeting DNMT1 in a concentra-tion-dependent manner. DNMT1 siRNA suppressed cells proliferation and induced apoptosis in Molt-4 cells. Apoptotic rate was (4. 27 ± 1. 42)% , (15. 25 ± 1. 54)% , (35. 63 ± 2. 54)% , (66. 27 ± 3. 02)%after transfecting with DNMT1 siRNA at 0, 30, 60, 120 nmol·L - 1 for 24 hours, P < 0. 05. The expres-sion of Bcl-2, procaspase-3 was suppressed and P15 was promoted after transfecting of DNMT1 siRNA. DN-MT1 siRNA downregulated histone methylated H3K9 and upregulated histone methylated H3K4. The altera-tion of histone acetylation of H3 was not seen. Conclu-sion DNMT1 siRNA suppresses DNMT1 efficiently in Molt-4 cells. The depletion of DNMT1 downregulates histone methylation of H3K9, and upregulates histone methylation of H3K4. It inhibits cell growth and in-duces cell apoptosis in Molt-4 cell line.

This study was aimed to compare the function of dendritic cells (DCs) in patients of Y in-Huang syn-drome and Y ang-Huang syndrome from the peripheral blood of HBV related hepatic failure. Jaundice patients of HBV related hepatic failure were divided into two groups, which were the Y ang-Huang syndrome group and Y in-Huang syndrome group. And a healthy control group was also established. The DCs were separated and cultured in vitro from PBMCs in the peripheral blood. Surface molecules such as HLA-DR, CD80, CD86, CD83 and CD1αwere detected by the flow cytometry. And the level of IFN- α and IL-4 in the supernatant of DCs were also de-tected. The expression difference of inflammatory cytokines and immune cells between Y in-Huang and Y ang-Huang syndrome in patients of HBV related hepatic failure were compared. The results showed that compared with healthy people, the expression rate of DCs phenotype such as HLA-DR, CD1α, CD83, CD80, CD86 in patients of HBV related hepatic failure was significantly decreased (P < 0.01); the excreted factor IFN-α had a significant rising (P < 0.01). Compared to Y ang-Huang syndrome group, the expression rate of CD83 and CD86 in the Y in-Huang syndrome group of HBV related hepatic failure patients was significantly reduced (P < 0.01). And the ex-creted factor of IL-4 had a significant rising in Y in-Huang syndrome group (P < 0.01). Compared to the Y in-Huang syndrome group, the excreted factor IFN-α in the Yang-Huang syndrome group had a significant rising (P< 0.01). It was concluded that DCs function of patients with HBV related hepatic failure in both Y in-Huang syn-drome and Y ang-Huang syndrome group showed low immune function. And the immune function of the Y in-Huang syndrome group was lower. There was excessive releasing of inflammatory factors in the Y ang-Huang syn-drome group. And there was enhanced anti-inflammatory cytokine expression in the Y in-Huang group.

BACKGROUND:The morphological structure of nanofiber scaffold which fabricated by electrospinning technique is similar to the natural extracelular matrix, which provides a good microenvironment for cel growth and proliferation, and can also enhance cel adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation. OBJECTIVE: To observe the biocompatibility of double-layer poly(L-lactic acid) electrospun nanofiber scaffold and human periodontal ligament cels. METHODS: Electrospinning technique was used to prepare double layers poly(L-lactic acid) electrospun nanofiber scaffold. The toxicity of different concentrations of (100%, 75%, 50%, 25%) double-layer poly(L-lactic acid) electrospun nanofiber scaffold extracts to human periodontal ligament cels was evaluated by MTT assay. The double-layer poly(L-lactic acid) electrospun nanofiber scaffold was co-cultured with human periodontal ligament cels. The cel adhesive capacity in early stage was determined by MTT assay. The growth of cels on the scaffold was observed by scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Different concentrations of double-layer poly(L-lactic acid) electrospun nanofiber scaffold extracts did not create any toxicity to human periodontal ligament cels. After co-culture for 2, 6, 24 hours, human periodontal ligament cels were poorly adherent onto the double-layer poly(L-lactic acid) electrospun nanofiber scaffold. After 7 days of co-culture, human periodontal ligament cels adhered wel on the loose surface of scaffold, maintained the original shape, stretched wel, and interconnected processes were observed; on the dense surface of the scaffold, multi-layer cels were observed. The cels showed fusiform or polygonal appearance and were connected together. These results demonstrate that the double-layer poly(L-lactic acid) electrospun nanofiber scaffold has good biocompatibility with human periodontal ligament cels.

Objective The purpose of this study was to examine the clinical features, radiological and arthroscopic characteristics of mucoid degeneration of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and to assess the results of arthroscopic treat?ment. Methods From January 2012 to August 2013, 32 knees (24 females and 8 males with left knee of 14 and 18 of right) were diagnosed with mucoid degeneration of the ACL and underwent arthroscopic treatment, all of whom with a mean age of 58.81±7.97 years (42-74 years). All 32 patients have pain on terminal extension, in which 12 patients have pain on both terminal flexion and extension. Arthroscopic debridement of hypertrophied ACL was performed in conjunction with notchplasty. Biopsy specimens were taken from yellowish degenerative lesions of ACL posterolateral bundles. Manual Lachman and Anterior Drawer tests were taken or measured preoperatively, as well as, visual analogue scale (VAS), range of motion (ROM) of knee, Lysh?lm scores, Western On?tario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) scores. Results The narrow intercondylar notch show in all 32 radiographs and sagit?tal magnetic resonance image showing with its attachment thickened and ill?defined ACL. All patients received follow?up. The mean follow?up time was 21.16 ± 5.53 months (15-32 months). The mean VAS score decreased significantly from 5.75 ± 1.32 to 1.13±1.36 (t=13.44, P=0.00). Extension deficits decrease gradually from a mean angle of 11.62°±3.52° preoperatively. Almost sta?ble 6 months postoperatively and the mean score was 0.41° ± 1.01° 1 year after operation. The extension deficit improved signifi?cantly. Manual Lachman tests and Anterior Drawer tests were all negative. At the same time, Lysh?lm scores increased from 50.13 ± 11.57 to 91.97 ± 3.04 and WOMAC scores decreased from 35.13 ± 7.88 to 6.25 ± 2.78, which is statistically significant (t=-20.20, P=0.00;t=24.72, P=0.00). Conclusion Mucoid degeneration of the ACL has a typical clinical feature and the MRI find?ings are fairly specific for clinical diagnosis before arthroscopy. Arthroscopic debridement of mucoid hypertrophy of the ACL in conjunction with notchplasty can effectively provide symptomatic improvement without instability.

Objective: To evaluate different patterns for left ventricular configuration on ventricular systolic function in patients with primary hypertension by two-dimensional strain (2DS) echocardiography. Methods: Our research included in 2 groups: Control group,n=40 healthy volunteers, Primary hypertension group,n=70, based on left ventricular mass index, the patients were further divided into 2 subgroups as Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) subgroup, n=32 and Non-left ventricular hypertrophy (NLVH) subgroup,n=38. The peaks of systolic longitude strain (SSL) for left ventricular apical layers of subendocardium, midmyocardium and epicardium were compared among different groups. Results:①In Control group and LVH, NLVH subgroups, SSL in different myocardium layers were kept in gradient features as subendocardium > midmyocardium > epicardium.②Compared with Control group, NLVH and LVH subgroups showed decreased SSL of subendocardium, as in apical four chamber level: (-24.11 ± 3.52) % and (-22.78 ± 4.11) % vs (-27.49 ± 2.95) %, in apical two chamber level: (-22.79 ± 5.20) % and (-21.92 ± 4.88) % vs (-27.95 ± 3.13) %, and in apical long-axis level: (-20.07 ± 3.43)%and (-21.34 ± 3.64%)% vs (-27.24 ± 3.05) %, allP<0.05; while SSL in midmyocardium and epicardium were similar,P>0.05.③Compared with NLVH subgroup, LVH subgroup presented decreased SSL of long-axis, in midmyocardium (-17.77 ± 4.35) % vs (-21.73 ± 3.97) % and in epicardium (-14.25 ± 3.78) % vs (-18.27 ± 2.96) %, allP<0.05. The pearson correlation coefifcient calculated by 2 physicians at 2 different times showed that SSL of subendocardium wasr=0.876, of midmyocardium was r=0.838 and of epicardium was r=0.823, allP<0.05. Conclusion: 2DS may quantitatively evaluate the layered myocardial strain of left ventricle, it provided a non-invasive examination for early diagnosing and estimating the heart involvement with severity in patients of primary hypertension.
