Objective To study the incidence and radiologic findings of calcaneonavicular coalition.Methods CR films of foot andankle in 1361 cases were presented,which were evaluated for acute trauma or chronic pain.There were 588 cases of foot CR and 773 cases of ankle CR,age ranged from 10 years to 91 years(984 cases of 20~40 years).The prevalence of calcaneonavicular coalition was determined and the different significance of both male and female,acute trauma and chronic pain group were analysed.Results In 1361 cases,72 cases of calcaneonavicular coalition(5.3%) were demonstrated,8.7%(47/588)on foot CR films and 3.2%(25/773) on ankle CR films.Calcaneonavicular coalition was more dipicted on foot CR films than on ankle CR films(P0.05).Conclusion The foot CR films is more superexcellent than the ankle CR films on demonstrating calcaneonavicular coalition.

Objective To study the clinicoradiologic significance of C sign.Methods 773 cases of standard ankle CR radiographs were presented for diagnosis of acute trauma and ankle pain. There were 565 males and 208 females, ages ranged from 10 to 81. There were 630 cases of acute trauma and 143 cases of painful ankle. C sign incidence, C sign figuration, distance of the medial facet of talocalcaneal joint, and the figuration of sustentaculum tali were studied. The relationship between C sign and talocalcaneal coalition was analysed.Results The incidence of C sign was 54.6%(422/773). The female incidence was 61.1%(127/208) ,which was more than that of male(52.2%,295/565)(P

20 years)was 8.60%(48/558) , which was more than that in the second decade of life ( 5.22% ). The incidence of painful group was 9.79%(14/143),which was more than that in foot trauma group 6.78%(40/630).The positive C sign was presented in 61.1%(33/54),posterior-type coalition in 38.9%(21/54),short talar neck sign in 61.1%(33/54)and talar beak sign in 22.2%(12/54). Conclusion The talocalcaneal coalition is a common development abnormality in our country. We must pay attention to the diagnosis of talocalcaneal coalition for painful foot adulthood.

Objective To detect the expression of Beclin1 and Bcl2 in invasive pituitary adenomas and to explore the relationship of Beclin1 and Bci2 in invasive pituitary adenomas and the relativity between the 2 genes.Methods 61 specimens were classified into invasive group (32 cases) and non-invasive group (29 cases) according to the comprehensive evaluation of invasive pituitary adenomas.lmmunofluorescence analysis and RT-PCR were adopted respectively to detect the protein and mRNA expressions of Beclinl and Bcl2.The difference and relativity of Beclin1 and Bcl2 expression in invasive group and non-invasive group were analyzed.Results 32 specimens of pituitary adenoma were invasive and 29 were non-invasive.Beclin1 protein and mRNA expressions were lower in the invasive group than in the non-invasive group (P <0.01 ).Bcl2 protein and mRNA expressions were higher in the invasive group than in the non-invasive group (P <0.01 ).Pearson related analysis showed that Beclin1 mRNA expression was negtively correlated with Bcl2 mRNA expression in the invasive group ( r =-0.42,P =0.028 ).Conclusions Beclinl expression is decreased in invasive pituitary adenomas.The invasiveness of pituitary adenoma is closely related to the high expression of Bcl2 protein and mRNA,and the low expression of Beclin1 protein and mRNA.The inhibition of the autophagy may lead to the enhancement of the invasiveness of pituitary adenomas and that inhibition may come from the interaction of Beclin1 and Bcl2.

Objective To study the anti-osteoporotic effect of different concentrations of hesperidin on ovariectomized rat model of osteoporosis(Ovariectomy,OVX)by reducing inflammatory molecules and oxidative stress response mechanism and the relationship between hesperidin and dose.Methods SD female rats were randomly divided into OVX group and Sham group,and OVX operation and sham operation were performed respectively.OVX group was randomly divided into 5 groups with 6 rats in each group,and 6 rats in Sham group were randomly selected as normal control group.They were Sham group(Sham rats+1%CMC suspension),control group(OVX rats+1%CMC suspension),HP1 group(OVX rats+5 mg·kg-1 HP),HP2 group(OVX rats+10 mg·kg-1 HP),HP3 group(OVX rats+20 mg·kg-1 HP)and AN group(OVX rats+2.5 mg·kg-1 AN).After 4 weeks of ovariectomized or sham operation,the drug was given by oral administration every morning for 10 weeks.After 10 weeks of administration,the change of body weight of rats was measured.Before the rats were killed,the serum of abdominal aorta was obtained and placed in the specimen cabinet at-20℃,the levels of Ca2+ and P5+,the levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β,and the levels of periosseous transition markers ALP,ACP,β-CTx and OC were also measured.After the rats were killed,the left femur was also placed in the specimen cabinet at-20℃.After treatment,the levels of oxidative stress factor TRARS and antioxidant enzymes GSH,GST,GR,GPx and CAT in the left femur were measured,and the bone mineral density,Young's modulus,maximum load,energy absorption and maximum stress in the middle part of the left femur were measured,and the expression level of SIRT1 gene was obtained.Results Compared with the control group,after 10 weeks of treatment with different concentrations of HP,the weight gain was significantly reduced(P<0.001),the levels of Ca2+ and P5+ in OVX rats were significantly decreased(P<0.001),and the levels of periosseous transition markers ALP,ACP,β-CTx and OC were significantly decreased(P<0.001).It significantly increased bone mineral density,Young's modulus,maximum load,energy absorption,maximum stress and stiffness(P<0.001),significantly decreased the level of OVX-induced thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and increased the levels of antioxidant enzymes GSH,GST,GR,GPx and CAT(P<0.001),and significantly decreased the levels of inflammatory molecules TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β(P<0.001).The expression level of SIRT1 gene was significantly decreased(P<0.001).Compared with the control group,the above parameters in the high concentration HP group were significantly different from those in the control group(P<0.001).Conclusion It is suggested that hesperidin can inhibit osteoporosis by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress in ovariectomized rats in a concentration-dependent manner.
