Objective To investigate the effect of preconditioning through stimulation of the fastigial nucleus (FNS)on the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 after cerebral ischemia. Methods A total of 312 male Wistar rats were divided randomly into three groups:a control group,a sham-FNS group and a FNS group.All the rats in the sham-FNS and FNS groups were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)by using a thread to occlude the right middle cerebral artery,while those in the control group were subject only to a similar operative procedure without real MCAO.Twenty-four hours before the operation,all the rats in the FNS group were given 1 hour of preconditioning FNS,while those in the sham-FNS group was given sham-FNS.Individuals were sacrificed at the 6th,12th,24th,and 72nd hour after MCAO.The brain water content was measured by the dry-wet weight method.The blood-brain barrier(BBB)permeability was measured using Evan's blue.MMP-9 protein expression was measured by Western blotting.Results The water content in the ischemic brain tissue,the BBB permeability and the expression of MMP-9 were all found to be significantly higher in the sham-FNS group than in the control group.Compared with the sham-FNS group,the brain water content and BBB permeability were significantly lower in the FNS group,while M MP-9 protein expression also decreased significantly.Conclusion FNS preconditioning can inhibit MMP-9 expression,thereby relieving BBB permeability and ischemic brain edema.

BACKGROUND: The total knee replacement is considered as one of the most effective and successful operations to cure terminal or severe gonarthritis. How to lower the revision rate as well as increace the effect of prostheses after the knee replacement should be solved urgently.OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyse the clinical applications and curative effects of different knee prostheses.DESIGN: Based on patients who accepted knee replacement, preoperative and postoperative condition was observed and compared so as to compare the postoperative effect of different types of knee prostheses replacements.SETTING: Department of Orthopedics, General Hospital of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 398 patients (523 knees) were selected from the Department of Orthopedics, General Hospital of Chinese PLA from January 2002 to January 2005, including 276 unilateral knee replacements (276 knees) and 122 bilateral knee replacements (244 knees). Patients were respectively diagnosed as osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS), etc.METHODS: According to the pathogenetic condition, patients received total knee replacements with different knee prostheses. Types of knee prostheses: ① According to the replacing range, it could be divided into unicondylar prostheses and total condylar prostheses; total condylar prostheses could be subdivided into posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)-retaining and PCL-substituting prostheses. ②According to the degree of mechanical constraint, it could be divided into unconstrained, semiconstrained or fully constrained prostheses. ③ According to whether imitating meniscus-function, it could be divided into tibial plateau rotatable sliding type and fixed type. Follow-up was conducted on patients that mentioned above after half a year. Knee joints were scored by using knee joint scoring system of American special surgical hospital (HSS scoring with the total score of 100 points, those above 85 were considered as excellent; 70-84 as good;60-69 as fair; below 60 as poor). Feller scoring (total score of 30 points; the higher the points were, the better the symptom was) criteria was used in patellar scoring. Investigation and comparison on pain-degree of anterior region of knee,range of motion of knee joint and the stabilization were done during the follow-up, ap and lateral views of patella from 30 degrees and 90 degrees were taken in radiography.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Preoperative and postoperative scores of HSS, patella, anterior pain of knee, function of patella, the maximum flexion and tibiofemoral angle.RESULTS: Follow-up was conducted in 372 patients (490 knees) with the follow-up rate of 93.4%. ①Therapeutic effect:Excellent and good rate of the operation was 89%. Pain and function of patients after operation were obviously ameliorated, effect on pain-amelioration and range of motion of knee joint activation were significant. ② Score of HSS, patellar,anterior pain of knee, function of patellar and the maximum flexion were markedly increased than those before operation (P < 0.01). ③ There were no marked significances in comparison of score of HSS, patellar, anterior pain of knee, function of patellar, the maximum flexion and tibiofemoral angle on different knee prostheses replacements (P > 0.05).CONCLUTION: Prostheses should be chosen carefully and appropriately according to the indications, contraindications,anticipated attainable functions, service life as well as pathogenetic conditions, and then satisfactory curative effect will accordingly be achieved.

Objective To investigate the effect of preconditioning electrostimulation of fastigial nucleus (FNS) on the neuronal mitochondrion of rats early after cerebral ischemia. Methods Forty Wistar rats were used and divided into 5 groups: a normal control group, a sham FNS group and 3 FNS groups. The FNS of the rats in the FNS groups was conducted for 1 hr, 1 day or 7 days, respectively, before the models of middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)were made with them. Three hours after the model was established, the animals were sacrificed and the water content of the brain of the ischemic side was measured. The neuronal mitochondrion was observed by electron microscope, and its Vv, specific volume (Sv) and specific surface (Ss) were analyzed. The rats in the normal control group were not given any special treatment. For the rats in the sham-FNS group, intrinsic neurons of FN were destroyed with ibotenic acid (IBO), and 5 days later, the FN was electrically stimulated, and 1 day later, MCAO models were made. Results Three hours after MCAO, the water content of the brain increased and neurological function score decreased in the sham-FNS group, while the Vv and Sv of neuronal mitochondrion increased and the Ss decreased, which were significantly different from those of the normal control group(P
