Because of the factors such as degeneration or congenital dysplasia which leads to medial tibiofemoral compartment tightness, the arthroscopic surgery of this part might have limited vision and narrow operating space, which causes missed diagnosis and iatrogenic injury.Medial collateral ligament ( MCL) release technique is a simple, effective and safe procedure.By releasing part of the ligament fiber, this operation can effectively expand the visual field and operation space.avoiding the risk of iatrogenic injury of cartilage and missed diagnosis.MCL release technique is an effective method to solve the arthroscopic examination and endoscopic operation for medial compartment tightness of the knee joint.This article reviewed the technique of MCL release.

Objective To observe the effects of termination of pregnancy with Guizlfi Fuling Capsule plus Mifepristone.Methods 75 early pregnant women were randomly recruited into a treatment group and a control group.Women in the control group were applied with Mifepristone plus Misoprostoi.Form the 3rd day,women in the treatmcnt group were applied wilh Guizhi Fuling Capsule(3 times daily,and 3 granules for each time)for successive 7 days oil the basis of medicines used in the control group.Compared and analyzed the therapeutic effects of both groups.Results The average time for ovum evacuation in the control group and the tretment group was(6±1.8)h and(3±2.6)h separately.Besides both bleeding volume and bleeding time in the Izeatment group were lower than the eonlxol group.Conelusion Guizhi Fuling Capsule plus Mifeoristolle therapy will shorten ovum evacuation time and decrease bleeding volume.

Objective To investigate the percentage of CD4 + C125 +Tregs in peripheral blood of patients with sepsis and its effect on cell immunity so as to unravel the effect of immunomodulatory therapy on it. Method Fourty patients with sepsis in ICU were randomly (random number) divided into experimental group and control group . The patients of experimental group were treated with Ulinastatin and immunoregulation agent (Thymosin αl) as well. The blood specimens were collected just before treatment, 3 days and 8 days after treatment. The percentages of CD4 + CD25 + Tregs and lymphocyte subsets were detected by using FCM (flow cytometry), and TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10 assayed by using ELISA, and APACHE Ⅱ scores were calculated. Results Before treatment, the percentage of CD4 + CD25 + Tregs increased, and the number of lymphocytes and the percentage of T lymphocytes decreased, especially the CD4 + T lymphocytes and CD4+/CD8+ decreased more markedly, and the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α increased. After treatment,the percentage of CD4+ CD25 + Tregs was decreased, the number of lymphocytes and CD4 +/CD8 + increased, and the levels of APACHE Ⅱ score, IL-6 and TNF-α decreased especially in the experimental group decreased more significantly (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusions The percentage of CD4 + CD25+ Tregs in peripheral blood can reflect the immune status of patients with sepsis and become a novel indicator to estimate the progress of sepsis, and the immunity and prognosis of patients. Treating the patients with Thymosin αl and Ulinastatin can raise their immunity, decrease the levels of IL-6, TNF-α and APACHE Ⅱ score and improve their prognosis.

The study of glomerular mesangial cells of normal rats showed that angiotensin Ⅱ (ATⅡ) down-regulated the expression of MMP-2 mRNA, did not have significant effect on TIMP-2 mRNA. And in consequence, ATⅡ down-regulated the ratio of MMP-2 mRNA to TIMP-2 mRNA.

Stroke is one of the most important causes of disability throughout the world.Epide- miological and clinical studies have demonstrated that statins significantly decrease the incidence of ischemic stroke.In addition to lipid-lowering effect,statins may also have a number of other acting mechanisms that are not dependent on reducing cholesterol levels.Moreover,statins inhibit cerebral vasospasm caused by subarachnoid hemorrhage.For most of the individuals,the safety and tolerability of statins are well.

Objective To demonstrate in vivo that there is different degree myocardium apoptosis during acute ischemia and reperfusion and to explore prelimarily the relations between myocardium apoptosis and the expression of Bcl 2/Bax protein in rats. Methods The morphologic features of apoptotic cardiocytes were pursuited by transmission electron microscopy.DNA extracted from cardiocytes were used to identify the apoptotic DNA ladder by agarose gel eletrophoresis. DNA fragmentation was identified histochemically by TUNEL staining. Expression of Bcl 2/Bax protein in apoptotic myocardium was observed by means of immunohistochemistry and analysed by image analysis system. Results In both ischemia and reperfusion groups morphologic features of apoptotic myocardium were observed by transmission electron microscopic and the apoptotic cardiocytes were detected by the TdT mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. However, the apoptotic DNA ladder was observed only in the 2 hour reperfusion group. The reperfusion group showed a decrease in OD value of the Bcl 2 protein( P

Objective:To identify the expression of plasmid pLNCX-EGFP-C1-hri targeting the gene of Human ribonuclease inhibitor (hri) in PA317 cells which is capable of expression in mammalian cells.Methods: The vector of pLNCX-EGFP-C1-hri was transfected into PA317 cells by Lipofectamine 2000 and then the expression of recombinated plasmid was verified in living cells by observing the transcription level of egfp-hri fusion gene mRNA with RT-PCR method and the expression level of egfp-fusion hRI protein with western blotting method respectively.Results: Both RT-PCR and western blotting showed the egfp-hri fusion gene was obviously expression in PA317 cells.Conclusion: The plasmid of pLNCX-EGFP-C1-hri targeting hRI is successfully constructed and the protein of hRI can be expressed in PA317 cells correctly.
