OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical effects of arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and minimally invasive reconstruction of posteromedial corner (PMC).

METHODSThere were 22 cases of ACL and PMC tear were performed with reconstruction from March 2012 to February 2014. The patients were 29.4 years old on average, including 8 males and 14 females. ACL reconstruction was performed under arthroscopy and PMC reconstruction was performed minimally invasively through the ACL incision. The stability of knee was assessed by anterior drawer test,Lachman test,vulgus stress test and Slocum test. The function of knee was assessed by Lysholm score and Tegner activity rating. MRI of knee was checked 12 months after operation.

RESULTSThe stability tests of all patients were negative at 2 and 6 months after operation, and there was one positive case in anterior drawer test and another positive case in vulgus stress test at 12 months after operation. Lysholm score of all patients 12 months after operation was 96.8 +/- 6.8, which was significantly better than 32.0 +/- 11.2 before operation. Tegner activity rating of all patients at 12 months postoperatively was 6.1 +/- 0.9, which was significantly better than 0.9 +/- 0.5 before operation. It showed the grafts were very well in the MRI 12 months postoperatively.

CONCLUSIONArthroscopic ACL reconstruction and minimally invasive PMC reconstruction can restore the stability of knee.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery (OBCS) in the treatment of early breast cancer. Methods:The clinicopathological data of breast cancer patients who were treated with OBCS (67 cases) and standard breast-conserving surgery (SBCS;117 cases) in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Postop-erative complication, specimen weight, margins, and surgery re-excision rate between the two groups were compared. Results:Sero-ma (14.9%versus 48.7%, P<0.001), hematoma (4.5%versus 14.5%, P=0.035), and poor wound healing (3.0%versus 11.9%, P=0.036) were more common in the SBCS group than in the OBCS group. The patient satisfaction in the OBCS group was statistically higher than in the SBCS group (P<0.05). Compared with standard surgery, oncoplastic techniques can be employed for significantly larger tumors (25.04 mm versus 21.14 mm, P<0.001). OBCS resulted in higher mean specimen weights (92.24 g versus 57.44 g, P<0.001), wider clear nearest margins (12.04 mm versus 9.58 mm, P<0.001), and wider furthest margins (24.16 mm versus 15.24 mm, P<0.001). No statisti-cal increase was observed in further surgery re-excision of margins. Conclusion:OBCS is more successful than standard wide local exci-sion in treating larger tumors and obtaining wider radial margins. Oncoplastic approach showed no increase in postoperative complica-tion rate. The postoperative complication was excellent. OBCS is a safe and effective procedure for early breast cancer.

OBJECTIVETo explore a safe and effective scheme of analgesic for labor.

METHODSEighty-four primiparas without contraindication of vaginal delivery were divided into an observation group and a control group, 42 cases in each one. In the observation group, the acupoint injection was given at Zusanli (ST 36) combined with electroacupuncture (EA) at Hegu (LI 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) till the cervical opening at the end of first stage labor. In the control group, the routine respiratory instruction was applied. In 5 min, 10 min and 60 min of acupuncture (the same time points in the control group) as well as at the end of the first and second stage labor, the analgesic effect was assessed for the primiparas of the two groups. The labor stages, adverse reactions, postpartum hemorrhage, postpartum urine retention, newborn asphyxia rate and usage rate of oxytocin were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSIn the observation group, in 5 min, 10 min and 60 min of acupuncture as well as at the end of the first and second stages, the visual analogue scale (VAS) was lower apparently as compared with the control group at the corresponding time points (all P < 0.05). The differences in the time limit in the active period, the second and third stages were not significant between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions and the usage rate of oxytocin were lower than those in the control group [2.4% (1/42) vs 31.0% (13/42); 2.4% (1/42) vs 23.8% (10/42), both P < 0.05]. The differences in postpartum hemorrhage, postpartum urine retention and newborn asphyxia rate were not significant between the two groups (all P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe combination of acupoint injection and EA is the effective analgesic scheme for labor. This scheme effectively alleviates labor pain and has no maternal and child complications.

Objective To investigate the effectsof quercetin on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC)-12 undergoing endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) induced by TGF-β1; To discuss its mechanism of action. Methods Cell activity of intervening by quercetin with different concentrations and TGF-β1 for 72 h was detected by CCK-8 method;RT-PCR and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect the transition of endothelial and stromal markers; Western blot was used to detect the signal transduction pathway; RT-PCR was performed to detect the transcription factors that play crucial roles in the process of transformation. Results The results of RT-PCR and immunofluorescence double staining showed that TGF-β1 (10 ng/mL) stimulated HUVEC-12 cells for 72 h to induce fibroblast phenotype, showing more interstitial markers and less endothelial markers;Western blot and RT-PCR results showed that quercetin inhibited the phosphorylation of smad2/3 in a concentration-dependent manner;After TGF-β1 stimulation, the downstream transcription factors EndMT of snail1, twist1, twist2, ZEB1, and ZEB2 significantly increased, while 100 μmol/L quercetin could down-regulate the five downstream transcription factors. Conclusion Quercetin has anti-fibrosis effects through inhibiting HUVEC-12 cells undergoing EndMT.

The outpatient service system at Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital came into use since April 2009.Data from Jan.2010 to Oct.2010 and interviews with employees of department in question showed a rapid growth of outpatient appointments,a poor handling of outpatients absenteeism,and poor integration among the platforms of the appointments.The development of outpatient services depends on behavioral change of both medical workers and consumers.Some measures could be employed to improve outpatient appointment within the current mechanism.

Objective To analyze MRI manifestations of cerebral sparganosis and the diagnostic value of MRI.Methods MRI findings in 8 patients with proven cerebral sparganosis by pathological examination were reviewed.Results The lesions were hypointense on T1WI and hyperintense on T2WI with edema of brain around the lesions.Most of the lesions were markedly enhanced with ring-type,nodules,tortous beaded shape or tortuous linear like worm past-enhanced scans.The location and shape of the lesions in 3 cases were changed on followed-up MRI.Conclusion There are some specific pathological findings in cerebral sparganosis.MRI is of important clinical value in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of cerebral sparganosis.
