As a node between the skull and the spine, atlantoaxial joint plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of head and neck activities, as well as the connection between the brains and the spine. The biomechanical characteristics of stlantoaxial joint, together with traumatic factors, contribute to determine the site, type and character of atlantoaxial joint fracture and dislocation, they also affect the treatment of atlantoaxial joint injury. With the materials technique development and accumulated experience of clinical operations, various types of new implants are increasing and used for clinical practice, accordingly the surgical approach and therapy regimen of atlantoaxial disease have been greatly enriched. At present, the use of implant mainly aims to promote the atlantoaxial fusion or enhance the connection and fixation between atlantoaxial joints. However, the head and neck activities are also limited simultaneously while the implant enhances the atlantoaxial joint stability. Further studies require to handle the correlation between joint stability and joint flexibility and to maximize the physiological function recovery of atlantoaxial joints when ensuring the atlantoaxial joint stability.

Objective To study the association between three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP; rs2241766,rs1501299 and rs12495941) variants of the adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in PCOS family trios.Methods A total of 224 unrelated PCOS probands,their biological parents were recruited.Anthropometric variables such as waist circumference (WC),hip circumference (HC),height and weight were measured in all subjects during the first visit to the outpatient department.Body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio (WHR) were calculated.Serum fasting glucose (FBG),fasting insulin (FINS),total cholesterol (TC),triglycerides (TG),low-density lipoprotein and highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) levels were measured.PCOS patients were divided into two groups based on BMh group A (BMI＜25 kg/m2) and group B (BMI≥25 kg/m2).Parents of PCOS patients were accordingly categorized into group C,D (fathers) and group E,F (mothers).The transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) was used to analyze the association between three SNP of ADIPOQ and PCOS.Results (1) A significant positive association was detected between SNP rs1501299 and PCOS (x2=7.093,P=0.008).However we failed to find significant overtransmission of the other two SNP rs2241766 and rs12495941 from parents to PCOS offsprings (x2=1.620,P=0.203; x2=0.713,P=0.398).(2) Linkage disequilibrium (LD) was analyzed in the subjects,rs1501299 and rs2241766 were in weak LD (r2=0.063,D'=0.621).(3) The levels of WC,HC,WHR,testosterone,TG,HDL and FINS were significantly differences between obese and lean PCOS patients (P＜0.05).While in fathers we only found WC,HC,TC levels being statistically different (P＜ 0.05).Mothers of obese PCOS patients had increased levels of FINS compared with mothers of lean PCOS patients (P＜0.05).The genotype frequencies of the three SNP were not different in obese and lean PCOS patients and their parents (P＞0.05).Conclusions TDT confirms that SNP rs1501299 in the ADIPOQ is significantly associated with the risk of PCOS in the Chinese Han population.The three SNP of the ADIPOQ were not associated with the obesity of PCOS.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the apolipoprotein B (ApoB) gene Xba Ⅰ and EcoR Ⅰ polymorphisms and cholelithiasis in Han and Mongolian population in the Midwest Area of Inner Mongolia.Methods The clinical data of 100 patients with cholelithiasis and 115 healthy individuals at the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Baotou from April to October in 2010 were collected.A case-control study which detected ApoB alleles of patients with cholelithiasis (cholelithiasis group) and healthy individuals (control group) in Han nationality and Mongolian nationality in the Midwest Area of Inner Mongolia was conducted by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism,which included Xba Ⅰ (X + X +,X + X-,X-X-,X +,X-) and EcoR Ⅰ (E + E +,E-E-,E + E-,E +,E-).The serum lipid (including triglyceride,total cholesterol,high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein) levels in different groups were detected.The count data and the measurement data were analyzed using the chi-square test and t test,respectively.Results Genotype X + X + was not found in the Han and Mongolian population,and Xba Ⅰ (X +) or EcoR Ⅰ (E-) alleles was not found in the Mongolian population.The levels of low density lipoprotein were (2.8 ± 0.9)mmol/L in the cholelithiasis group,which was significantly higher than (1.9 ± 0.8) mmol/L of the control group in the Han population (t =2.800,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein were (1.7 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (3.5 ± 0.8) mmol/L of the cholelithiasis group,which were significantly higher than (1.2 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (2.8 ± 0.9) mmol/L of the control group in the Mongolian population (t =7.596,2.549,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of triglyceride,total cholesterol,high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein of the cholelithiasis group in the Mongolian population were (3.1 ± 1.6) mmol/L,(5.6 ± 1.0) mmol/L,(1.7 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (3.5 ± 0.8) mmol/L,which were significantly higher than (1.2 ± 0.6) mmol/L,(4.4 ± 1.2) mmol/L,(1.3 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (2.8 ± 0.9) mmol/L of the cholelithiasis group in the Han population (t =5.501,3.667,4.448,3.430,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of triglyceride,total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein were (2.6 ± 1.7) mmol/L,(5.1 ± 1.1) mmol/L and (2.8 ± 0.9) mmol/L of the control group in the Mongolian population,which were significantly higher than (1.3 ±0.7)mmol/L,(3.9 ±0.9) mmol/L and (1.9 ±0.8) mmol/L of the control group in the Han population (t =4.298,4.772,3.888,P ＜ 0.05),while the level of high density lipoprotein was significantly higher of the control group in the Han nationality than the control group in the Mongolian population (t =1.997,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of low density lipoprotein in patients with genotypes X + X-,X-X-of the cholelithiasis group in the Han population were (2.7 ± 0.1) mmol/L and (2.6 ± 1.0) mmol/L,and the levels of low density lipoprotein in patients with genoeypes E + E ±,E + E-/E-E-were (2.6 ± 1.0) mmol/L and (2.5±0.4)mmol/L,with no significant difference (t=0.225,0.124,P＞0.05).Conclusion In the Midwest area of Inner Mongolia,the Mongolian population might be more susceptible to cholelithiasis than the Han population.No relationship between the rare alleles X +,E-and the increase of blood lipids,which indicates that X + and E-of ApoB may not be a risk factor of cholelithiasis.

This study was aimed to exploreBi-Min-Gan (BMG) granules induced immune tolerance for allergic rhinitis cases through changes of Treg cells to achieve the goal of treatment. SD rats were used as experimental animal, which were divided into the blank group, model group and BMG granules group. Allergic rhinitis rat model was established. Intragastric administration of BMG granules was given. Levels of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg and IL-4, IL-10, TGF-β1, IL-13 were detected with flow cytometry and ELISA assay. The results of flow cytometry showed that CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg decreased after the successful establishment of the model (P<0.05); but it increased after treatment of BMG granules (P<0.05) to reach the level of the normal blank group (P>0.05). ELISA showed the concentrations of IL-10 and TGF-β1 decreased significantly after the successful establishment of the model (P<0.0001); concentrations of IL-4 and IL-13 increased significantly (P<0.0001). While, after treatment of BMG granules, concentrations of IL-10 and TGF-β1 in blood rebound but did not reach the level of the normal blank group;concentrations of IL-4 and IL-13 in the blood decreased but did not reach the level of the normal blank group. It was concluded that BMG granules can upregulate the number of Treg cells in allergic rhinitis rat, increase the secretion of IL-10 and TGF-β1, inhibit Th2 cell activity, and reduce secretion of IL-4 and IL-13, so as to improve symptoms of allergic rhinitis.
