Objective To introduce the treatment efficacy of using allograft muscle ligament anatomical to rebuild anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of knee joint under the arthroscopy.Methods Sixty-two cases patients with ACL rupture in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction under arthroscopy.Allograft ligaments were used as graft,a bone tunnel was established in the proximal tibia and distal femur,and the graft was fixed by the extrusion screw.After the operation,the knee joint was fixed for 12 weeks,and the subjective evaluation was carried out according to the Lysholm and Larson knee score standards;in order to assess the stability of the ligament and the functional recovery of the knee joint,objective evaluation was carried out according to Lachman test in patients.Results The preoperative average Lysholm scale was (43.1±2.1) points,the final average score of 2 years after the reconstruction of the ligament was (91.0+2.3) points,there was significant difference (t=3.460,P=0.001).The preoperative average Larson scale was (41.0±2.9) points,the final average score of 2 years after the reconstruction of the ligament was (90.1±3.5) points,there was significant difference (t=3.232,P=0.001).Lachman test results were negative in 62 patients at the end of the review.No serious postoperative complications occurred,no knee infection,deep vein thrombosis and stiffness.All the patients can be completely straight 1 year after operation,knees up to 120 degrees.All patients were satisfied with the function at the end of the follow-up,no joint instability,no re-rupture occurred during the follow-up period.Conclusion Using the allogeneic single beam anatomy of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction under arthroscopy can obtain satisfactory clinical efficacy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX-1) gene, rs3448, rs1050450, rs1800668, and rs1987628, and the susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) among Chinese Han population.
METHODSA case-control study was conducted to investigate the threshold shift of the left ear at 3000 Hz among the workers of Chinese Han population who were exposed to the same level of sound pressure. Two hundred and one (10%) of the subjects with the highest level of threshold shift were recruited in susceptible group, while 202 of (10%) of the subjects with the lowest level of threshold shift were recruited in tolerant group. Targeted occupational health survey and questionnaire survey were performed among these people. For each individual, genome DNA was extracted from 5 ml of fasting peripheral venous blood. Four SNPs (GPX-1 rs3448, rs1050450, rs1800668, and rs1987628) were genotyped by the TaqMan SNP genotyping kit. The main effects of SNPs and the association between NIHL susceptibility and SNPs were analyzed by logistic regression.
RESULTSThe C allele of rs1987628 was a risk factor for NIHL, with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.531 (95%CI: 1.878-3.411) as compared with the T allele. The CC genotype of rs1987628 was more associated with NIHL than the TT genotype (OR = 3.500, 95% CI: 1.984-6.174; adjusted OR = 3.544, 95% CI: 1.974 ∼ 6.364).
CONCLUSIONAmong Chinese Han population, GPX-1 SNP rs1987628 may be associated with the susceptibility to NIHL.
