OBJECTIVETo explore clinical efficacy of double Endobutto reconstituting coracoclavicular ligament combined with repairing acromioclavicular ligament in stage I in treating acromioclavicular dislocation with Rockwood type III - V .

METHODSFrom January 2010 to September 2013, 56 patients with Rockwood type III - V acromioclavicular dislocation were treated by operation, including 20 males and 36 femlaes, aged from 32 to 52 years old with an average of 38.5 years old. Twenty-five patients were on the left side and 31 cases on the right side. The time from injury to operation was from 3 to 14 days, averaged 7 days. All patients were diagnosed as acromioclavicular dislocation with Rockwood type III - V, and double Endobutto were used to reconstituting coracoclavicular ligament, line metal anchors were applied for repairing acromioclavicular ligament. Postoperative complications were observed, Karlsson and Constant-Murley evaluation standard were used to evaluate clinical effects.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 8 to 24 months with average of 11 months. According to Karlsson evaluation standard at 6 months after operation,42 cases were grade A, 13 were grade B and 1 was grade C. Constant-Murley score were improved from (42.80±5.43) before operation to (91.75±4.27) at 6 months after operation. All items at 6 months after operation were better than that of preoperative items. Forty-eight patients got excellent results, 7 were moderate and only 1 with bad result. No shoulder joint adhesion, screw loosening or breakage were occurred during following up.

CONCLUSIONDouble Endobutto reconstituting coracoclavicular ligament combined with repairing acromioclavicular ligament in stage I for the treatment of acromioclavicular dislocation with Rockwood type III - V could obtain early staisfied clinical effects, and benefit for early recovery of shoulder joint function.

BACKGROUND: Epidemiologic studies have shown an association between higher insulin levels and coronary artery disease, and metabolic studies have associated insulin resistance and compensatory hyperinsulinemia with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity,and lipid disorders.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between insulin resistance (IR) and erythrocyte insulin receptors (EIRs) in the patients with cerebral infarction (CI).DESIGN: Case-control trial.SETTING: Department of Neurology, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University.PARTICIPANTS: From January 2004 to October 2004, 40 patients with CI, who were in-patients in China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University,were selected for the study. Meanwhile, 30 healthy doctors or nurses were recruited as normal controls.METHODS: The levels of blood glucose and serum insulin under fasting and 2-hour after oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were detected in the 40 patients with CI and 30 healthy doctors or nurses. Fasting blood glucose multiplied by fasting serum insulin was insulin resistance index (IRI). The number of insulin receptors and their binding affinity on every erythrocyte were determined using modified Gambhir's method. The correlation between the number of EIRs and IRI was analyzed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparison of CI group with controlRESULTS: Data of 40 patients with CI and 30 controls were analyzed, and under fasting and 2-hour after OGTT: The level of serum insulin under fasting and blood glucose, serum insulin at 2-hour after OGTT in CI group were higher than those in normal group [(13.30±5.15), (9.85±4.36) mU/L,(8.27±1.65), (6.32±1.37) mmol/L, (75.21±21.12), (28.26±6.31)mU/L,P ＜ 0.01,EIRs: The number of insulin receptors with high and low affinity and maximum specific binding rate in the patients with CI were significantly less than those in normal group [20.30±4.50, 23.80±4.10; 2 223.80±509.30,2 610.10±435.10; (10.62±3.55)%, (13.21±2.94)%, P ＜ 0.01]. Multiple linear regression analysis and correlation analysis showed the numbers of two types of EIRs in the patients with CI were negatively correlated with IRI (r=-0.458, -0.439, P ＜ 0.01, both).CONCLUSION: Insulin resistance can lead to cerebral infarction. Decrease in insulin receptors may play an importance role in cerebral infarction induced by insulin resistance.

Objective To study the effects of Chinese herbs Yiyanheji on intestinal mucosa barrier in rats with SAP.Methods Animal models of SAP were induced by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate (0.1ml/100g) into the common biliopancreatic duct.90 healthy Wistar rats weighing (250?30)g were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operation group (SO,n=30),SAP group (SAP,n=30) and Chinese herbs Yiyanheji treated group(SAP+YH,n=30).Treated group was treated with Yiyanheji after operation.The SAP group was treated with physiological saline.Three groups of rats were killed at 72 hours after operation or treatment.Bacterial cultures were performed in all animals.The changes of terminal ileum' tissue were observed by optical electron mi- croscopy.The data of test were analyzed by statistic software.Results The incidence of bacterial translocation was 22.5% in Yiyanheji treated group,and it was lower than that in SAP group which was 90.0 %.The difference was significant(P

Applications of network pharmacology are increasingly widespread and methods abound in the field of drug development and pharmacological research. In this study, we choose rosiglitazone compound as the object to predict the targets and to discuss the mechanism based on three kinds of prediction methods of network pharmacology. Comparison of the prediction result has identified that the three kinds of prediction methods had their own characteristics: targets and pathways predicted were not in accordance with each other. However, the calcium signaling pathway could be predicted in the three kinds of methods, which associated with diabetes and cognitive impairment caused by diabetes by bioinformatics analysis. The above conclusion indicates that the calcium signaling pathway is important in signal pathway regulation of rosiglitazone compound, which provides a clue to further explain the mechanism of the compound and also provides a reference for the selection and application of methods of network pharmacology in the actual research.
