OBJECTIVE: To study the therapeutic effect of Bushen Rougan Recipe (BSRGR) on hepatic fibrosis in rats. METHODS: Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group (n=10), model group (n=15), and BSRGR-treated group (n=15). Rats in the model and BSRGR-treated groups were administered intraperitoneally with 0.5% dimethylnitrosamine (DMN), 10 mg.kg(-1).d(-1), successive 3 days per week for 4 weeks to induce hepatic fibrosis. Then rats in the above 2 groups were given normal saline and BSRGR (10 ml.kg(-1).d(-1), ig) for another 4 weeks, respectively. Rats in the 3 groups were all executed at the end of the 8th week. The serum total bilirubin (TBIL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), albumin (A) and globulin (G) were determined and the serum hyaluronic acid (HA), laminin (LN) and collagen IV (IV-C) were measured. RESULTS: The rat model of liver fibrosis was successfully induced by DMN. It was found that the serum TBIL, AST and ALT and the liver fibrosis marks were declined in BSRGR-treated group as compared with those in the model group (P<0.01). The content of total serum protein and the A/G in BSRGR-treated group were both increased as compared with those in the model group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: BSRGR can be used to treat hepatic fibrosis in rats.

OBJECTIVE: To study the expression of TIMP-1 and TGF-beta1 mRNA in hepatic fibrosis rats and the therapeutic effects of Bushen Rougan Recipe (BSRGR). METHODS: Hepatic fibrosis was induced in rats by dimethylnitrosamine (DMN). The rats' hepatic tissue was studied by HE staining and Sirius red staining. The rats were divided into normal control group, fibrosis model group and BSRGR treated group (10 g.kg(-1).d(-1), i.g. for 4 weeks). At last, TIMP-1 and TGF-beta1 mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS: Pathological study showed that hepatic fibrosis was successfully induced by DMN in rats. The expression quantity of TIMP-1 and TGF-beta1 mRNA were the most in the fibrosis model group, the second in the BSRGR treated group, and the least in the normal control group. CONCLUSION: The expression of TIMP-1 and TGF-beta1 mRNA was increased in the hepatic fibrosis rats, and this is one possible mechanism of hepatic fibrosis. BSRGR can inhibit the advancement of hepatic fibrosis.

To observe the diopter after cataract surgery for vision gain in high myopia and its effect on visual outcomes.METHODS: Sixty ( 120 eyes ) high myopia combined with cataract cases received phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in our hospital were retrospective studied. The patients were divided into three groups based on postoperative diopter: -1. 0 ~ -2. 0D (group A), -2. 25~-3. 0D (group B) and -3. 25 ~-4. 0D ( group C ) . The uncorrected distance visual acuity ( UCDVA) , best corrected distant visual acuity ( BCDVA) , uncorrected near visual acuity ( UCNVA ) and questionnaire of Activities of Daily Vision Scale ( ADVS ) were collected to assess the vision gain at 3mo after cataract surgery.RESULTS: At 3mo after surgery, UCDVA of group A was better than that of group B, and UCDVA of group B was better than that of group C. There were no differences in BCDVA among groups. There were significant differences between the three groups' UCNVA, it was best for the group C, followed by the group B, group A was the worst. For questionnaire, no difference was observed in patients' satisfactory for surgical results, but a significant difference was detected in postoperative glasses wearing frequency between groups.CONCLUSlON: For cataract surgery in high myopia combined cataract, postoperative diopter should be calculated based on patients' daily requirements. For patients had not used to wearing glasses and near distant working condition, it's appropriated to reserve a minor degree of myopia. Conversely, for patients require near distant working and received wearing moderate and low hyperopia mirror, higher degree of myopia can be reserved.

Objective To evaluate the effect of P-gp inhibitors of verapamil (VER) and GF120918 on 18F-FDG uptake in Bcap37 and Bcap37/multidrug resistancce (MDR)1 cell lines in vitro,and to explore the relationship between 18F-FDG uptake and P-gp expression at cellular level.Methods Bcap37 and Bcap37/MDR1 cells were seeded into 6-well plates at a density of 1 × 106 per well.Three days later,37 kBq/ml 18F-FDG,or 37 kBq/ml 18F-FDG + 100 μmoL/L VER,or 37 kBq/ml 18F-FDG + 50 μmol/L GF120918 were added into each well.Mter incubated for 10,30,60 and 120 min at 37 ℃ and in 5％ CO2,the medium was removed and the cells were washed three times with 1 ml ice-cold PBS immediately.The radioactivity of 18 F-FDG was measured using a gamma counter.The uptake of 18F-FDG was expressed as the ratio of 18F-FDG radioactivity in Bcap37 or Bcap37/MDR1 cells and the overall radioactivity added to the cells in each well.The t test was used for statistical analysis.Results 18F-FDG uptake was higher in Bcap37/MDR1 cells than that in Bcap37 cells after incubated for 10 min.The uptake rate was (1.88 ±0.19) ％ in Bcap37/MDR1 cells and (1.37 ± 0.18) ％ in Bcap37 cells (t =7.832,P ＜ 0.05).On the contrary,18 F-FDG uptake was significantly higher in Bcap37 cells than that in Bcap37/MDR1 cells after incubated for 60 and 120 min.The uptake rates were (2.29 ±0.23)％ and (2.34 ±0.15)％ in Bcap37 cells,(1.47 ±0.14)％ and (1.53 ±0.22)％ in Bcap37/MDR1 cells (t =8.437,8.283,both P ＜ 0.05).18 F-FDG uptake was significantly higher with VER or GF120918 in Bcap37/MDR1 cells than that without VER or GF120918 after the incubation of 60 and 120 min (t =9.032,9.243 and 8.765,8.803,all P ＜ 0.05).The uptake rates with VER or GF120918 were (2.45 ±0.21)％ and (2.46 ±0.25)％,(2.50 ±0.24)％ and (2.48 ±0.27)％.There was no significant difference of 18F-FDG uptake in Bcap37 cells with or without VER or GF120918.Conclusions 18F-FDG is a substrate of P-gp at cellular level.P-gp may act as an efflux pump to reduce 18F-FDG uptake in Bcap37/MDR1 cells.The uptake of 18F-FDG can be used to evaluate the function of P-gp in tumor cells.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical characteristics of Segond fracture combined with injuries, and to explore the operative method and opportunity.

METHODSFrom June 2010 to December 2014, 10 patients with Segond fracture were treated. There were 10 males, ranging in age from 26 to 69 years old, with a mean of 42 years old. Under arthroscopy examination within 7 to 10 days after injury, 6 patients had compete rupture of anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus injury; 2 patients had tibial avulsion fractures of the ACL combined with meniscus injury. At 4 to 8 weeks after injury, 2 patients were performed with arthroscopy examination; 1 patient had complete rupture of anterior and posterior cruciate ligament combined with meniscus injury; and the other patient had complete rupture of anterior cruciate ligament alone. All the patients with cruciate ligament rupture were treated with reconstruction of cruciate ligament; 9 patients had meniscus injuries were treated with menisus plasty or suture; and 2 patients had tibial avulsion fractures of the ACL were treated with non-absorbable Ethicon suture fixation under arthroscopy. After operation, the Lysholm scoring system was used to evaluate clinical effects.

RESULTSEight patients were operated within 10 days after injury, the knee joints swelling was obvious at the 3rd day after operation, and blood oozing was found by joint puncture. These 8 patients did out-of-bed activity with assistance at 1 week postoperatively. Other 2 patients performed operation in 4 to 8 weeks after injury without knee joint obvious swelling at the 3rd day after operation, and no blood oozing was found by joint puncture. These 2 patients did out-of-bed activity with assistance after 3 days postoperatively. All the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 12 to 24 months, with an average of 18 months. Postoperative Lysholm score of all patients was higher than preoperative scor, and the results were satisfactory.

CONCLUSIONFor Segond fractures, firstly, it is important to gain early diagnosis for treatment. Secondly, it is often associated with the rupture of anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus injuries, and the best time of cruciate ligament rebuilding and meniscus repairing maybe between 4 to 8 weeks after injury. Thirdly, personalized treatment should be chosen according to different complications.
