Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(30):5518-5524
BACKGROUND:Changing the acetabular orientation is the best method for the treatment of acetabular dysplasia, and Bernese periacetabular osteotomy is one of the most commonly used and successful treatment methods. OBJECTIVE:To review and analyze the operation indication, surgical technique and influencing factors of Bernese periacetabular osteotomy for better clinical application. METHODS:The PubMed database, Elsevier database and Springer database were retrieved for related articles published before December 2012 with the key words of“Bernese osteotomy, Ganz osteotomy, periacetabular ostetomy”. The articles that related to the clinical application of Bernese periacetabular osteotomy in patients with acetabular dysplasia were enrol ed in this study. Repetitive studies and Meta analysis were excluded. And the analysis emphasis was put on the operation indication, surgery technique and influencing factors of Bernese periacetabular osteotomy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 483 articles were screened out after primary computer-based online research. And according to the exclusion criteria, 43 articles were selected for review. Bernese periacetubular osteotomy was performed through polygonous osteotomy around the acetabula by modified Smith-Peterson approach. The surgical technology was improved gradual y, but the major osteotomy procedures never changed, only the soft tissue release method was modified. The direct factors that influence the surgical effect of Bernese periacetabular osteotomy are the degree of radiographic hip degeneration and dysplasia. In the future, with the in-depth understanding of hip deformity, the operation indication and technique of Bernese periacetabular osteotomy wil also developed.

Chinese Journal of Organ Transplantation 2003;0(06):-
Objective To investigate and compare cytotoxic effects of cyclosporine A (CsA) treatment in kidney tubule epithelium cells (NRK-52E cells), and whether apoptosis is involved in the CsA-induced toxicity. Methods NRK-52E cells were cultured at 37?℃ in 95?% O 2/5?% CO 2, and were treated with different concentrations of CsA for 48?h.. The damage induced by CsA was characterized by an early cell detachment from culture (by direct counting of adherent cells), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and the changes in morphology were also observed by a phase-contrast microscope. Assay of apoptosis was done by TUNEL staining. Results CsA treatment induced significant damage in NRK-52E cells, which was demonstrated by obvious signs of cell injury with changes in cell shape, aggregates, and cell loss. A time- and dose-dependent increase in LDH release was also observed for CsA treatment . More than 70?% of the NRK-52E cells treated with 20??g/ml CsA for 48?h were dead. The apoptotic DNA fragments were observed in a population of NRK-52E cells treated with CsA by TUNEL staining, which represented the capacity of CsA to induce apoptosis in NRK-52E cells. Conclusions CsA treatment induced a time- and dose-dependent damage in NRK-52E cells, in which the apoptotic DNA fragments were also observed by TUNEL staining. Thus, the results obtained from the present study suggested that apoptosis, as a possible mechanism, might be involved in the CsA-induced tubulopathy.
