Objective To evaluate the morphological and signal intensity changes after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction , and to analyze the correlations between MRI evaluation and clinical examination .Methods Totally 34 patients who underwent anterior cruciate liga-ment reconstruction in our hospital from July 2013 to June 2015 were given MRI examination .The morphology ,orientation and signal intensity of the anterior cruciate ligament grafts were evaluated on axial ,sagittal and coronal images .The grafts were assessed with Rak method ,and the clinical assessment was adopted with physical assessment method ,including drawer test ,axial shift test and Lachman test .The correlations be-tween MRI evaluation and clinical examination results were further analyzed by SPSS 16.0.Results After anterior cruciate ligament recon-struction,79%of the graft were visualized as a smoothly continuous low signal (well-defined type),15%of the graft showed increased signal intensity with only a small part of low signal bands ( intermediate type ) ,and 6% of the grafts showed remarkably increased signal intensity (indiscernible type).A statistically significant correlation was identified in MRI evaluation and clinical examination results (P<0.05). Spearman’ s correlation coefficient was 0.747 2 which indicating significantly positive correlation .Conclusion Magnetic resonance imaging is a noninvasive high-resolution imaging technology and it is an effective tool for evaluating anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction .

AIM To study the effects of dexamethasone on expressing monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1 ) mRNA in the rats with pulmonary fibrosis, elaborate the molecular mechanism of dexamethasone (Dxs) in pulmonary fibrosis therapy. METHODS The model of pulmonary fibrosis was established by instilling bleomycin intratracheally. After treating with Dxsip, the levels of MCP-1 mRNA were determined by RT-PCR. The histological changes were observed and the numbers of inflammatory cells were counted in optical microscopy field. RESULTS The accumulation of inflammatory cells decreased markedly, and the symptom of pulmonary fibrosis was alleviated. Furthermore, Dxs evidently inhibited the expression of MCP-1 mRNA in lung tissues with pulmonary fibrosis. CONCLUSION The molecular mechanism of Dxs in pulmonary fibrosis therapy was associated with inhibiting the expression of MCP-1 mRNA.

ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation of brainstem auditory evoked potentials(BAEP) and somatic evoked potentials (SEP) with therapeutic outcome of brain stem hemorrhage patients.MethodsBAEP and SEP were detected in the early period of 25 caees with brain stem hemorrhage by evoked potential instrument,and were surveilled dynamically.ResultsThere was good prognosis in the patients whose BAEP and SEP were normal in the first time and repeated detection.Poor prognosis happened in ones whose BAEP and SEP were abnormal in the first time and repeated detection.The difference was significant between them(P<0.05).ConclusionCombined detection and dynamic surveillance of BAEP and SEP could predict accurately the curative result of patients with brain stem hemorrhage.

ObjectiveTo study the sirolimus (SRL)-associated interstitial pneumonitis,which is a severe side effect of sirolimus therapy. Methods In 7 renal grafts treated with SRL, interstitial pneumonitis (8 times) was diagnosed. One patient suffered a relapse after sirolimus treatment was given again. Two patients received de novo sirolimus treatment, and rest 5 patients were switched from a calcineurin inhibitor-containing regimen to a SRL-based protocol for various indications: chronic allograft nephropathy (n = 4) and cancer (n = 1 ). The patients presented with fever, dyspnea on exertion and the chest X-ray or computed topographic (CT) scan on admission showed bilateral mostly peripheral interstitial infiltrates. ResultsSRL was discontinued in 4 patients and the dose was reduced in the remaining 3 patients. Symptoms were improved within 3-14 days in all patients, the radiographic findings improved within 2-4 weeks, and the lesions were absorbed completely in 2-6 months.ConclusionThe frequency of interstitial pneumonitis appears to be increased in renal transplant patients receiving SRL. Discontinuation or reduced dose of SRL appears to be the safest treatment option for the patients with interstitial pneumonitis.

Objective To study the expressions of PTTG and bFGF proteins and their relationship with microvessels density(MVD)in esophageal carcinoma.Methods Immunohistochemical SP method was used to detect the expression of PTTG and bFGF proteins in 48 esophageal carcinoma tissues and the same para-cancerous tissues.MVD was evaluated by immunohistochemieal staining with antibody CD34.Results The positive rate of PTTG and bFGF was 68.8%(33/48)and 70.8%(34/48)respectively.Rate of PTTG protein expression in esophageal carcinoma tissues was significantly higher than that in para-cancerous tissues(8.3%and 12.5%,P<0.05).The positive rate 0f PTTG,bFGF and MVD was correlated with lymph node metastasis and TNM stage.There was no relationship with age,sex,tumor size MVD(P<0.05).Conclusion PTTG and bFGF are over-expressed in esophageal carcinoma.Increased PTTG may play an important role in carcinogenesis and development of esophageal carcinoma by promoting the expression of bFGF protein which may induce an angiogenesis.
