The anatomical and functional details of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee joint were studied on 55 normal cadaver knees of adults.ACL is made up of multiple fascicles, the basic unit of which is collagen. It is attached to the medial surface of the lateral femoral condyle and front of the anterior tibial spine. ACL is narrow in the middle and fans out at the attachments. The fascicles of ACL have been summarily divided into two groups: the anterior medial portion (AMP) and the posterior lateral portion(PLP). The tension of AMP is different from that of PLP during movement of the knee. ACL restricts the anterior drawer sign, and the internal and external rotation of the knee. AMP acts with the knee in flexion and PLP in extension. ACL restricts hyperextension, too. The function of ACL is related to its morpholcgical structure and the anatomy of the attachments. Rupture of ACL may result in instability of the knee, and injuries to the different components of ACL may produce different signs.

By comparing three cultivation techniques of Astragalus mongholicus, i. e. direct seeding, furrow erectplanting and furrow flat planting, it was found that furrow flat planting is the optimum technique. Its yield onplain ground was 1. 26kg/m' and 0. 96kg/m_2 on mountainous area- Root of the plant was longer, thicker andheavier than that produced hy other cultivation techniqlles. Its input/output ratio was l s l2' 94 on plaingrounfl and l: 9. 95 on n1ollntainous area. Therefore,it can be considered as a scientifically justifiable,economically technique for the cultivation of A. mongholicus on both plain ground and mountainous regions.

OBJECTIVETo establish a model of hypoxic postconditioning of dermal microvascular endothelial cells.

METHODSDuring reoxygenation after hypoxia, cells received three times of hypoxic/ reoxygenation alternate treatment for a certain time. The cells were seeded on 6-well plates, with one plate for one group. They were divided into 6 groups as group 1 ( Control), group 2 (8h hypoxia + 24h reoxygenation), group 3 (8h hypoxia + 2 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment) , group 4 (8h hypoxia + 5 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment), group 5 (8h hypoxia + 10 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment), 6 group (8h hypoxia + 20 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment). Each group underwent 8 h hypoxia + 24 h hypoxia Buffer and reoxygenation. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was detected during the process. Apoptosis rate was calculated by staining Tunel method. Bcl-2, Bax and activated caspase-3 protein were detected by Western Blot.

RESULTSIn the continuous hypoxia process, the LDH was (1563 ± 83.35) IU/L at 8h and (582.85 ± 58.25 ) IU/L at 0h, showing a statistical difference (P = 0.0001). Western blotting results showed that the expression of Bax/Bcl-2 in group 2 was 0.38 ± 0.02, showing a significant difference when compared with that in group 3 (0.23 ± 0.01) and group 4 (0.22 ± 0.02) (P = 0.012, P = 0.005), while not when compared with that in group 5 (0.33 ± 0.02) and 6 groups (0.34 ± 0.01) P > 0.05). The ratio of Activated caspase-3/caspase-3 in group 2 (6.30 ± 1.50) was significantly higher than that in group 3 (2.17 ± 0.26) and group 4 (2.63 ± 0.31) (P = 0.008, P = 0.019); while not in group 5 (4.36 ± 0.29) and group 6 (4.97 ± 0.51) (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe model of hypoxic postconditioning of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells is successfully established.

Objective To investigate the accuracy of functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound on evaluation of the breast cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Methods Forty-eight patients with breast cancer who were confirmed by biopsy,undergoing 4 cycles weekly dose-concentrated programs (wPC) neoadjuvant chemotherapy,evaluated the efficacy by fMRI and contrastenhanced ultrasound.Results In pathology,complete remission was 12 cases (25.0％,12/48),non remission was 13 cases (27.1％,13/48).In contrast-enhanced ultrasound,complete remission was 20 cases (41.7％,20/48),non remission was 10 cases (20.8％,10/48).In fMRI,complete remission was 17 cases (35.4％,17/48),non remission was 11 cases (22.9％,11/48).The P values more than 0.05 showed no statistically significant among three methods,the Kappa test showed that fMRI were superior to contrastenhanced ultrasound on evaluating the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Conclusions fMRI and contrast-enhanced ultrasound can be used in evaluating the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy,however,the data shows fMRI is superior to contrast-enhanced ultrasound.Contrast-enhanced ultrasound must be as the supplementary method.

Objective To investigate the HBV- positive pregnant women about the knowledge of the route of hepatitis B transmission, hepatitis B hazards, health care during pregnancy, announcements of child- care to explore targeted and effective health education model with self- designed question-naires. Methods Nurses in obstetrics department carried out this questionnaire investigation in the outpa-tients of HBV- positive pregnant women, after that the results underwent statistic analysis. Results The overall knowledge of HBV- positive pregnant women in announcements of child- care, health care during pregnancy and hepatitis B hazards was not very well, and the announcements of child- care was the lowest, followed by health care during pregnancy and hepatitis B hazards. The route of hepatitis B transmission was better, but still not satisfactory. The education should highlight these areas. Well- educated women were better than those who lack education. The age between 20 to 30 years old was better. Conclusions The HBV-positive pregnant women is lack of heath knowledge, so we should gave health intervention in a multi- level, multi- stage standardized and a variety of ways.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM: To observe the effect of microRNA-19a ( miR-19a) on the lipid catabolism of hepatocyte LO2, and to explore the potential mechanism.METHODS: miR-19a was over-expressed or silenced by transfection of miR-19a mimics or miR-19a inhibitor into LO2 cells, then the mRNA level of miR-19a was detected by real-time PCR.The potential target of miR-19a was found by the method of bioinformatics through internet website.The effect of miR-19a on the 3’ UTR of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorα(PPARα) was measured by dual luciferase reporter assay, and the protein level of PPARαand its 2 major downstream rate-limiting enzymes involved in lipid catabolism, acyl-coenzyme a dehydrogenase (ACADM) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A ( CPT1A), were detected by Western blotting.Mean-while, the effect of miR-19a on the generation of ketone body was measured by beta-hydroxybutyric acid (β-OHB) detec-tion assay.RESULTS:The mRNA level of miR-19a was dramatically elevated by the transfection of miR-19a mimics, and sharply decreased by the transfection of miR-19a inhibitor (P<0.05).PPARαwas found as a potential target of miR-19a, and dual luciferase reporter assay and Western blotting confirmed the regulatory effect of miR-19a on the expression of PPARα, with the protein level changes of ACADM and CPT1A.miR-19a mimics down-regulated, while miR-19a inhibitor up-regulated the concentration ofβ-OHB in LO2 cells (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:miR-19a regulates the lipid catabo-lism of hepatocytes by targeting the PPARαand its 2 downstream rate-limiting enzymes.

Objective:To investigate the effects of acupoint massage on cognitive function and sleep quality in elderly patients with hypertension. Methods:A total of 68 elderly patients with hypertension were enrolled, and their ages were all over 60 years old. They were divided into a control group and a treatment group by simple random method, with 34 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were treated by routine psychological health guidance and sleep knowledge education, while patients in the treatment group were treated by acupoint massage on the base of the interventions given to the control group. Both of their treatment courses were 3 months. Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) scores and mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores before and after treatment were recorded and compared. Results:Two groups’ PSQI scores before treatment had no significant difference (P>0.05). After 3 months of treatment, their PSQI scores were statistically different (P<0.05). There was also no between-group statistical difference in MMSE score before treatment (P>0.05), but there was a significant difference after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion:Acupoint massage for elderly patients with primary hypertension can improve their sleep quality and enhance their cognitive function, thus it is worthy of being applied in clinical nursing work.
