Objective To compare the bone mineral density of the regions of femoral and tibial tunnels for anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)reconstruction in order to provide reference for the choice of optimal screw diameter for interference fixation.Methods Thirty healthy volunteers aged from 18 to 35 years were enrolled in our study,and the dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA)was used to measure the bone mineral density of femoral and tibial tunnel regions of the right knee.All the right knees of the volunteers were also scanned by spiral CT and three-dimensional reconstruction technique was utilized to determine the circular sections that pass through the longitudinal axis of the femoral and tibial tunnels separately.The CT gray scale values of the Sections were measured.From August to October 2010,9 patients who had been diagnosed as ACL rupture underwent the operation of ACL reconstruction,and cylindrical cancellous bone peg was removed from the femoral and tibial tunnel respectively during the operation.Volumetric bone mineral density of the bone pegs were measured by using a standardized immersion technique according to Archimedes’ principle.Results Measured by DEXA,bone density of the femoral tunnel region arid tibial tunnel region were(1.162±0.034)g/cm2 and(0.814±0.038)g/cm2 respectively.The difference was significant between the femoral and tibial tunnel region(t=9.11,P=0.000).The CT gray scale value of the section for femoral tunnel region was(211.7±11.5)Hu,while that of the tibial tunnel region was(104.9±7.4)Hu.There was statistically significant difference between them(t=10.15,P=0.000).The volumetric bone mineral density of the bone peg from femoral tunnel and tibial tunnel were(2.80±0.88)g/cm3 and(1.88±0.59)g/cm3 respectively.The difference was statistically significant(t=4.32,P=0.002).Conclusion For ACL reconstruction,bone mineral density of femoral tunnel region is higher than that of the tibial tunnel.

Objective:To investigate the expression of myocardium connexin 43 (Cx43) in late exercise preconditioning (LEP) cardioprotection.Methods: Eight-week-old adult male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned into four groups (n=8). Myocardial injury was judged in accordance with serum levels of cTnⅠ and NT-proBNP as well as hematoxylin basicfuchsin picric acid staining of myocardium.Cx43mRNA was detected byin situhybridization and qualified by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Cx43 protein was localized by immunohistochemistry and its expression level was determined by western blotting.Results:The LEP obviously attenuated the myocardial ischemia/hypoxia injury caused by exhaustive exercise. There was no significant difference of Cx43mRNA level between the four groups. Cx43 protein level was decreased significantly in group EE (P<0.05). However, LEP produced a significant increase in Cx43 protein level (P<0.05), and the decreased Cx43 protein level in exhaustive exercise was significantly up-regulated by LEP (P<0.05).Conclusions:LEP protects rat heart against exhaustive exercise-induced myocardial injury by up-regulating the expression of myocardial Cx43.

In recent years, the study of autophagy in spinal cord injury (SCI) gradually becomes the hot spot. However, the function of autophagy in the injured spinal cord is still controversial. In order to further understand the role of autophagy after SCI, we summarized the activation of autophagy, autophagic cell death, the relationship between autophagy and apoptosis, the function of autophagy in promoting the molecular metabolism and the role of autophagy after spinal cord injury. We concluded that the role of autophagy after SCI is a double-edged sword. Upregulating the level of autophagy appropriately can promote damaged proteins metabolism and inhibit apoptosis. However, excessive activation of antophagy may induce autophagic cell dealth. So we consider that the proper regulation of autophagy will be a new target in the treatment of SCI.

Purpose:The image information and technique of positron emitter nuclei generated by high energy X-ray photonuclear reactions with body tissues from MM50 is studied.It is explored to verify for dose delivery and location monitoring in tumor target after high energy photon radiation therapy with the image information.Materials and Methods:The technique is based on the photonuclear reactio-as in body tissues elemental composition ~(12)C,~(16)O and ~(14)N with high energy X-Ray,energies well above 20 MeV,resulting primarily in ~(11)C and ~(15)O but also ~(13)N.The induced positron activity distributions were scanned off-line in a PET/CT after irradiation.The activity distributions and position may be used to verify for dose delivery and location in tumor target.These radiations are similar to RT in three fields with some different dose delivery from TPS.The phantom began to be scanned off-line in a PET/CT a couple of minutes after irradiation.The scanning time is respectively 20 minutes and(2~5)mniutes for ~(12)C and ~(16)O.The levels of the beam energy are 10MV,25MV,50 MV.The extent of dose is 1.0 Gy~10.0 Gy.Since measured PET images change with time post irradiation,as a result of the different decay tim-es of the radionuclides,the signals from activated ~(12)C,~(16)O within the irradiated volume could be separated from each other.Most informationis obrained from the carbon and oxygen radionuclide's which the most abundant elements are in soft tissue.A brain phantom Rlade oneself was irradiated with high energy X-ray beams from IBA MM50.The 3D radiation treatment planning system,Nucletron-TPP 3.2,was used to calculate the delivered dose distributions.The phantom was directly simulated in the Nucletron-TPP after CT scan.PET/CT is fro-m GE Discovery LS Ⅱ.Resuits:It was confirmed that no activity was detected at 10 Mv X-ray energy,which was far below the energy threshold for photonuclear reactions.Totally 25 MV X-ray beams can produce photonuclear reactions and get to activity distributions images in PET/CT.It need to greater dose in order to good images information.For 50 MV X-ray beams,2 Gy-3 Gy dose,a normal RT dose,can get to activity distributions images.Conclusions:It was concluded that the PET-CT image acquired from the activity of the ~(15)O and ~(11)C positron emitter nuclei might provide the area and dose distribution information of 50 MV X-ray irradiation in a phantom.It can verify the in vivo dose delivery and location in tumor target after high energy X-ray RT.

Objective To evaluated the clinical value of laparoscopic techniques in radical cystectomy surgery for the treatment of bladder cancer. Methods Clinical data of 49 patients underwent radical cystectomy with Bricker ileal conduit diversion were retrospectively analyzed from October 2009 to August 2014, which laparoscopic radical cystectomy with Bricker ileal conduit 20 cases (Group A), open radical cystectomy with Bricker ileal conduit 29 cas-es (Group B). The blood loss during operation, operating time, gastrointestinal function recovery after operation, hos-pital stay after operation and complications were observed between the two groups. Results The blood loss during operation was significantly lower in Group A (416.66 ± 232.73) ml than in Group B (964.16 ± 445.73) ml ( <0.05), and hospital stay after operation was significantly lower in Group A (14.93 ± 2.72) days than in Group B (19.50 ± 3.16) days ( < 0.05), complication after operation was significantly lower in Group A than in Group B ( < 0.05). The operating time and gastrointestinal function recovery has no significantly difference between the two groups. Conclusions Laparoscopic radical cystectomy have advantages of minimal invasion, less blood loss, rapid recovery and less postoperative complications. It is a safe and effective surgical method. Long term effect need evaluated by follow up.
