Objective To investigate the treatment of pronation external rotation ankle injuries and to evaluate its outcomes. Methods 58 cases of severe ankle injuries of pronation external rotation type who had been hospitalized between October, 2001 and October, 2003 were retrospectively analyzed. They were 42 males and 16 females, with an average age of 32.4 years old (16 to 61 years old). According to Lauge Hansen classification, 39 cases were grouped as grade Ⅲ, while other 19 cases as grade Ⅳ. Most cases were surgically managed, and routine examinations were done. Results The average follow up period was 16.4 months (from 10 to 36 months). The satisfactory outcome was 89.7%. 2 cases of osteoarthritis were observed. Conclusions In treatment of pronation external rotation ankle injuries, the key points are to correct the fibular shortening and external rotation and to take great care of technical details.

Acta Anatomica Sinica 1953;0(01):-
The efferent projections of the rostral ventrolateral medulla(RVL) to the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus(Pa) and the thoracic cord were studied in the adult cat by using WGA-HRP or fluorescent retrograde tract-tracing method. After injection of WGA-HRP or fluorescent tracer Fast blue(FB) into one side of the Pa, retrogradely labelled cells were found in bilateral RVL, with an ipsilateral predominance. The labelled cells decreased in number from the caudal to the rostral level. After injection of FB into one side of the thoracic cord at T_2-T_3 segments, retrogradely labelled cells in the RVL were observed which increased in number from the caudal to the rostral level and reached the peak at 1.0-1.5mm caudal to the trapezoid body. Most of these cells were distributed in the ipsilateral RVL, and clustered in the region 0.0-1.0mm from the ventral surface of the medulla. After Diamino yellow 2HC1 and FB were injected into the Pa and the thoracic cord respectively, only single labelled cells were detected in the RVL, no double labelled cells were found. The above results suggest that the Pa and the thoracic cord receive separate fiber projections from different cells of the RVL.

The distribution of serotonin(5-HT), phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase (PNMT), substance P(SP) and leu-enkephalin(L-ENK) immunoreactive neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVL) of the cat was studied with the immunohistochemical ABC technique, and the projection of 5-HT, SP and L-ENK positive neurons of the RVL into the thoracic cord was preliminarily investigated by a combined fluorescent retrograde transport and immunofluorescence method. The results indicate that 5-HT, PNMT, SP and L-ENK immunoreactive neurons mentioned above were localized primarily in the caudal part of nucleus paragigantocellularis lateralis and the rostral part of nucleus lateralis reticularis. SP positive cell bodies in the reticular formation close ventrolateral to nucleus ambiguus were also found. Some 5-HT, SP and L-ENK positive cells were situated in the area near the pia mater. In the most area of the RVL, 5-HT, PNMT, SP and L-ENK immunoreactive cell bodies had an overlapping distribution. 5-HT or PNMT or L-ENK positive neurons crowded, intertwined each other with their processes in the region at the levels 1.0-3.5mm caudal to trapezoid body, about 3.3mm lateral to the midline and about 0.8mm from the ventral surface of the medulla, and formed a longer or shorter continuous cell column which ran in the rostrocaudal direction. These three columns nearly coincided with each other at the level 1.5-2.5mm caudal to trapezoid body. Part of 5-HT, SP and L-ENK positive neurons in the RVL projected into the thoracic cord. The functional significance of these substances in the RVL was also discussed.

Aim To study the effect of As_2O_3(arsenic trioxide) on the expressions of telomeric repeat binding factor1,2 and telomeric stability of human gastric cancer MGC803 cells, and explore the mechanism of cell apoptosis. Method MGC803 cell growth inhibition was measured with MTT assay. Apoptosis was analyzed with flow cytometry. Influence on chromosome distal end was analyzed with chromosome end-end fusion analysis. Expressions of TRF1 and TRF2 were determined with Western blot analysis. Results MTT assay showed that As_2O_3 clearly inhibited the growth of MGC803 cells, depending on time and dosage. The apoptosis rates were significantly higher than those of the control group in a concentration and time-dependent manner. These changes were not found in the control group. After disposal with 5 ?mol?L -1 As_2O_3, chromosome fusion rate was obviously increased in 48 h. After 48 h of disposal with 5 ?mol?L -1 As_2O_3, the TRF1 of MGC803 cells was up-regulated while TRF2 was down-regulated. Conclusion As_2O_3 induced chromosome fusion and MGC803 cells apoptosis through up-regulating expressin of TRF1 and down-regulating expressin of TRF2.
