Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between oxygen consumption (VO2) after recovery from incremental maximal exercise and the levels of the blood lactate (HLa), glucose and alanine metabolism. Method The VO2, HLa and plasma alanine were obtained using a modified version of Bruce' s protocol 30 min after exhaustion for 10 men. Result The VO2 after recovery has returned to the pre - exercise, but the HLa concentrations and plasma alanine were significantly increased from rest to maximal exercise, and were significantly decreased thereafter, but remained above resting values for 30 min after maximal stage. Conclusion we conclude that oxygen consumption after exhaustive maximal exercise is related to glucose resyntbesis through alanine metabolism, as compared with that from lactate metabolism.

Presently,with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using autogeneic hamstring tendon graft is generally developed,the influencing factors and promotion methods of tendon-bone healing become a research focus of sports medicine.The influencing factors include the graft fixation,the character of bone,stress stimulation and the matching relation between graft and bone tunnel and so on.The promotion methods include applying growth factors,metalloprotease blocking agent,osteoprotegerin,mesenchyme stem cells,physical methods.Some prospective methods of promoting tendon-bone healing have been found,but these methods are in animal study or involving complex laboratory technique.Thus,these methods require further studies before clinical application.

Objective To discuss the diagnosis and treatment of partial-thickness rotator cuff tears.Methods A total of 14 cases of partial-thickness rotator cuff tears from April 1999 to January 2004 were surgically treated in this hospital.Before operation,X-ray examinations at anteroposterior view and at scapular outlet view were conducted in all cases,B-ultrasonography was conducted in 11 cases,and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) or magnetic resonance arthrography(MRA),in 14 cases.Subacromial decompression and tear debridement was performed in 5 cases,while subacromial decompression and rotator cuff repair was performed in 9 cases.The University of California Los Angeles(UCLA) shoulder scoring system was used to evaluate the outcomes.Results The partial tears were identified at bursal-side in 7 cases and at articular-side in 7 cases.The 14 cases were followed for 1~6 years(mean,38 months).The UCLA scores were elevated from 15.9?3.9 preoperatively to 30.9?5.2 postoperatively(t=15.000,P=0.000).The curative results were classified as "good" in 13 cases and "poor" in 1 case.Conclusions Arthroscopy is a reliable method for the diagnosis of partial-thickness rotator cuff tears,which can be effectively treated with rotator cuff repairs.Arthroscopic repair gives little invasion and quick recovery.

Objective To study clinical results of arthroscopically assisted mini-open rotator cuff repair.Methods Twenty-two patients with rotator cuff tears were treated with arthroscopically assisted mini-open rotator cuff repair from March 1999 to March 2004.Thirteen patients underwent arthroscopic inspection,mini-open subacromial decompression,and rotator cuff repair.Nine patients underwent arthroscopic subacromial decompression and mini-open repair.The UCLA scoring system was used for outcome assessment.Results The 22 patients were followed for 12-72 months(mean,47 months).The UCLA scores were increased from 14.8?3.8 preoperatively to 32.0?4.7 postoperatively(t=15.086,P=0.000).The results were classified as excellent in 7 patients,good in 13 patients,fair in 1 patient,and poor in 1.Twenty patients were satisfied with the operative outcomes.Conclusions Arthroscopically assisted mini-open rotator cuff repair is an effective procedure for rotator cuff tears,with simplicity of performance and little invasion.

ObjectiveTo compare tongue positions at rest between normal occlusion people and patients with anterior cross-bite malocclusions,and to explore whether there is any abnormality in the tongue position of the anterior cross-bite malocclusions.Methods Twenty adults of normal bite (8 males and 12 females,with an average age of 23.8 years) and 20 adults of anterior cross-bite (1 1males and 9 females,with an average age of 24.6 years) were involved in this study.The position habits of tongue were investigated by a questionnaire.The tongue positions,which were enhanced by applying barium to tongue and palatal surface,were compared by cephalometric roentgenogram.Two groups were compared by t-test to determine the variation of anterior cross-bite. Results In normal occlusion group,the dorsum of tongues was sealed with all palatal surfaces except uvula site.In anterior cross bite group,tongues were far from palate,and were difficult to lift.The profile of tongue showed standing upright forward and up in normal occlusion group,while inclining back and low in anterior cross-bite group.The tops of tongue dorsum sites were at the border of soft and hard palate in normal occlusion group.While in anterior cross bite group,the tops of tongue dorsum sites were at the border of uvula and soft palate.In anterior cross-bite group,the tongue-to palate distance was bigger than that of normal occlusion group (P＜0.01).However,both length and height of the tongue had no significant differences between two groups (P＞0.05).ConclusionsIn anterior cross-bite patients,tongue positions were lower than that of normal occlusion people.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment of intratment of intra ular osteoid osteoma.Methods Seven patients(average 22.4 years old with range from 11～32 years)with intra-articular Osteoid osteoma who underwent arthroscopy treatment from March 2006 to June 2009 were studied respectively.Thin-section CT scanning was used to confirm diagnosis and determine surgery location.Results The time span between the appearance of clinical symptoms and confirmed diagnosis was 26.0 months on average(range from 18 to 36 months).At a mean 19-month follow-up,all patients showed significant improvements including VAS decrease,no recurrence,pain relief and normal range of motion.Conclusion The atypical clinical features and radiographic findings of osetoid osteoma might lead to the delayed diagnosis.Using arthroscopy to remove intro-articular osteoid ostema was a safe and effective way.

Objective To explore the clinical results of arthroscopic subacromial decompression (ASD) for treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome. Methods Twelve cases with subacromial impingement syndrome from October 1998 to November 2003 were retrospectively studied. There was one case at degree Ⅰ, five at degree Ⅱ and six at degree Ⅲ according to Neer classification. Preoperative X-ray of obverse shoulder joint and outlet supraspinatus muscle was made. Seven cases was examined with ultrasonography and 10 with MRI or MRA. All cases were treated with arthroscopic subacromial decompression and arthroscopic acromioplasty and six cases underwent simultaneously arthroscopic suture of the rotator cuff. Results The follow up for 1-6 years (average 26 months) showed significant statistical difference upon preoperative UCLA score and postoperative UCLA score that were 16.9?4.0 and 32.5?1.4, respectively (t=-14.027,P﹤0.01). The results were excellent in two cases and good in ten. All cases were satisfied with the operation. Conclusions ASD is shown to be an effective procedure for subacromial impingement syndrome and has the advantages of minimal trauma and rapid postoperative recovery.

Objective To evaluate the radical effect and prognosis of laparoscopic resection for colorectal cancer in China.Methods Articles of non.randomized comparative studies(NRCs)of laparoscopic resection and open Burgery for colorectal cancer which were published before October 2007 were retrieved,and correlated indexeswere extraeted for meta.analysis.Results The mean quality score of the 14 articles selected was 18.92±1.27.The basic characteristics of patients in laparoscopic resection group were similar to those in open surgery group.Compared with open surgery group,the incised length of the intestine in the laparoscopic resection group was shorter by 0.66 cm.and the distance between distal margin of resection and tumor was farther by 0.26 cm.The 2-year survival rate of patients in laparoscopic group Was 1.67 times higher than that of open surgery group.There was no significant difference upon follow-up rate,tumor diameter,number of resected lymph nodes,local recurrence rate and distal metastasis rate between the 2 groups.Conclusions The results of meta-analysis show that laparoscopic resection has the sanle radical effect as open surgery for colorectal cancer.but the 2-year survival rate of patients treated by laparoscopic resection is comparatively higher.

Objective To investigate the relationship between surgical timing and outcomes of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).Methods The patients with aSAH retrospectively received clipping or endovascular embolization.Their demographic and clinical data were collected.The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the outcomes at 6 month after procedure.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the risk factors that influencing clinical outcomes of patients.Results A total of 198 patients with aSAH were enrolled,118 had good outcome (mRS score0-2),80 had poor outcome (mRS score ＞2; 20 of them died); 32 were early operation (operated within 2 d after onset) and 166 were late operation.Univariate analysis showed that the proportions of hypertension (29.66％ vs.52.50％ ; x2 =10.464,P =0.001),cerebral infarction (11.86％ vs.35.00％ ;x2 =15.269,P ＜0.001),cerebral hemorrhage (9.32％ vs.31.25％ ;x2 =15.410,P ＜0.001),Fisher grade 3-4 (22.88％ vs.47.50％ ; x2 =13.104,P ＜ 0.001),Hunt-Hess grade Ⅳ to Ⅴ (19.49％ vs.52.50％ ;x2 =23.557,P ＜0.001),cerebral vasospasm (5.93％ vs.25.0％ ;x2 =14.719,P ＜0.001),hydrocephalus (5.08％ vs.17.50％ ;x2 =8.093,P =0.004),and late operation (78.81％ vs.91.25％ ; x2 =5.442,P =0.020) in patients of the good outcome group were significantly higher than those of the poor outcome group.Multivariatelogistic regression analysis showed that Fisher grade 3 to 4 (odds ratio [OR] 9.13,95％confidence interval [CI] 2.98-13.45; P ＜0.001),Hunt-Hess grade Ⅳ to Ⅴ (OR 6.86,95％ CI 1.57-12.34; P＜0.001),accompanied with hydrocephalus (OR 2.59,95％ CI 1.17-4.31; P=0.024),and late operation (OR 2.17,95％ CI 1.12-3.95; P=0.029) were the independent risk factors for patients with poor clinical outcomes.The univariate analysis for both early operation and late operation groups showed that only the good outcome rate of the early operation group was significantly higher than that of the late operation group (78.13％ vs.56.2％ ;x2 =5.442,P =0.020),and there were no significant differences in the incidences of rebleeding (6.25％ vs.13.25％; x2=1.235,P=0.266),cerebral vasospasm (12.50％ vs.19.28％;x2 =0.042,P=0.834),and hydrocephalus (12.50％ vs.9.64％;x2 =0.242,P=0.623).Conclusion Early operation may significantly improve the outcomes in patients with aSAH.

BACKGROUND:Tissue-engineered bone scaffold fabricated by 3D-bioprinting technique has good controlability in morphology and structure. However, construction of tissue-engineered bone/cel growth factor complex and time-dose effect of sustained-release factors are needed to be further researched.
OBJECTIVE:To fabricate a sustained-release composite of polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)/nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HA) scaffold carrying bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) using 3D-bioprinting technique, and test the biological properties of the PLGA/n-HA scaffold carrying BMP-2 and the sustained-release properties, thereby to discuss its feasibility as the tissue-engineered bone scaffold composite.
METHODS:Temperature-sensitive chitosan hydrogel was prepared using chitosan andβ-glycerophosphate to construct a sustained-release composite, chitosan nanoparticles carrying BMP-2 . 3D-bioprinting technique was utilized to fabricate the PLGA/n-HA scaffold carrying BMP-2. Biological features of the scaffold composite were tested, and time-dose effect of BMP-2 sustained-release was observed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The average pore size of the scaffold-cytokine composite was (431.31±18.40)μm, and the porosity was (73.64±1.82)%. The cumulative release rate of BMP-2 from the scaffold-cytokine composite that effectively controled the burst release during 48 hours and 30 days were suitable for the physiological needs. In conclusion, the porosity, pore size, release property, degradation rate, and mechanical strength of the scaffold-cytokine composite al meet the biological requirements of tissue-engineered bone construction.
