Objective To silence the expression of tissue factor(TF) gene of human umbilical vein endothelial cell(HUVECs) of the newborns with placental abruption(PA) and normal newborns.Methods There were two groups in the experiment,normal group and PA group.Three different treatments were established in each group:(1) the blank; (2) the false-intervention ; (3) the TF gene silencing.There were three samples in each treatments.After these treatments,the changes of mRNA expression of the HUVECs were observed before and aftcr thc gene silencing and the changes of the immunofluorescence of the TF protein level.Results After amplificated,plasmid DNA were sequenced to show that the pENTRTM/U6-TF-shRNA was the positive clone.After the transfected,the levels of the mRNA of TF decreased from 0.657 ± 0.097 to 0.220 ± 0.030 and 1.323 ± 0.323 to 0.207 ± 0.150 in the normal and PA group respectively.Compared with the normal group,there were significant differences for the levels of TF mRNA in PA group with the blank,(1.323 ± 0.323 vs 0.657 ± 0.097,P =0.023) and the same result for the second management (1.057 ±0.178 vs 0.540 ± 0.079,P =0.01).But there was no significant difference between the normal and PA group after RNA interference gene silencing (0.220 ± 0.030 vs 0.207 ± 0.150,P ＞ 0.05).Meanwhile,there were significant differences among the three managements in the themselves groups of normal and pathological ones(F =19.30,P =0.002 ;F =27.66,P =0.001).Conclusion The vectors are transfected into HUVECs and play the biological function.And they silence the expression of TF mRNA.PENTRTM/U6-TF-shRNA could inhibit the expression of TF mRNA of HUVECs in the PA newborn.

Objective:To compare the biomechanical effects between oblique Ban-pulling manipulation and lumbar erection-rotation manipulation in sitting position in treating lumbar intervertebral disc herniation (LIDH). Methods:A three-dimensional finite element model of L3-S1 was developed to carry out a comparative study between oblique Ban-pulling manipulation and lumbar erection and rotation manipulation in sitting position. The disc protrusion was assumed to be on the rear left of L4 disc, and the manipulations were performed on the right side. The loading process was simulated by two steps. In the first step, only the compression loading was imposed, and in the second step, both the compression loading and axial rotation moment were imposed. The displacement and stress distribution in L4 disc were investigated. Results:The values of stress and displacement in the second step were lower than those in the first step in each manipulation. The stress and displacement differences between the two steps were respectively 1.79 times and 3.03 times larger in oblique Ban-pulling manipulation than those in lumbar erection-rotation manipulation in sitting position. Conclusion: Oblique Ban-pulling manipulation may result in a better biomechanical effect than lumbar erection-rotation manipulation in sitting position for LIDH.

AIM:To evaluate the feasibility and advantages of two-port 27-gauge pars plana vitrectomy for treatment of recurrent retinal detachment in silicone oil dwelling eyes.METHODS:A retrospective study.Two-port 27-gauge pars plana vitrectomy was performed in 7 eyes with recurrent retinal detachment without remove of silicone oil.Proliferative membrane peeling, endolaser treatment, and drainage of subretinal fluid were performed.Scleral bulking was performed if necessary.RESULTS:Sucessful retina re-attachment was accomplishied in all eyes.No visually significant intraoperative complication occurred.All eyes expericend quick recoveray of visual acuity and mild postoperative irritation.One eye developed a recurrent inferior retinal detchment in 20d after the surgery using non-remove technique, and recovered after conventional silicone oil removal and retinal reattachment surgery.CONCLUSION:Two-port 27-gauge pars plana vitrectomy is an efficacious (and potentially cost-efficient) method to treat early stage recurrent retinal detachment in silicone oil dwelling eyes.

OBJECTIVETo explore the efficacy differences in early intervention of different acupuncture and moxibustion methods on gastrocnemius fatigue in rats induced by electrical stimulation.

METHODSFifty male SD rats were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, a hand acupuncture group, an electroacupuncture group and a moxibustion group, 10 rats in each group. Electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve was given in the control group and gastrocnemius fatigue test was induced by electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve in the model group after anesthesia without other treatment, but just take 6 times interval stimulation in the control group. The hand acupuncture group, the electroacupuncture group and the moxibustion group were treated with the corresponding acupoints stimulation method respectively for 20 min before gastrocnemius fatigue test, and Dazhui (GV 14) and Zusanli (ST 36) were selected. Immediately after gastrocnemius fatigue test, three or four gastrocnemius tissues at the same site on the right side were quickly taken for making specimen for transmission electron microscope (TEM). The changes of skeletal muscle ultrastructure of myofibrils, mitochondria, sarcoplasmic reticulum, glycogen particles were observed under TEM.

RESULTS(1) Muscle fibers disorder, partial mitochondrial vacuolization and glycogen particles smaller were shown in the model group. (2) No abnormalities were shown in the hand acupuncture group and the moxibustion group with mitochondrial morphology and number, which better than that in the model group, and glycogen particles increased. (3) Abnormal changes in morphology were shown in the electroacupuncture group with part of the muscle fibers derangement, Z line malalignment and a few mitochondria vacuolization.

CONCLUSIONHand acupuncture, electroacupuncture and moxibustion have the different effects on ultrastructure of gastrocoemius in rats. Acupuncture and moxibustion have shown good effects on the prevention and treatment of exercise-induced skeletal muscle cell and organelle damage and delaying exercise-induced fatigue.

Objective To assess the clinical outcome of varicose veins with incompetent great saphenous vein(GSV) treated with ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy. Methods Forty limbs with moderate to severe symptomatic varicose veins with incompetent GSV in 38 patients were injected with foam sclerosing agent (Fibro-Vein) under ultrasound guidance. There were 36 patients with unilateral varicose veins and 2 with bilateral varicose veins. No of them suffered from deep vein incompetence or perforating vein incompetence. Second injection was performed one month after the initial injection in 7 limbs. Thirty-eight of 40 limbs were followed up with clinical examination and duplex ultrasound scan 30-47 months (mean 40 months) after the treatment. Results Among 38 limbs with follow-up mild debilitation was found in two limbs(5. 3%). There were no other symptoms or complications. Duplex ultrasound demonstrated four type of results: type I, sclerosed GSV trunk with no detectable venous flow in 32 of 38 limbs (84. 2%) ;type II,patent GSV trunk in 3 limbs (7. 9%) ,two of them had mild reflux in the GSV trunk;type III,sclerosed GSV trunk and mild reflux in the GSV tributaries, 1/38(2. 6%) ; type IV,sclerosed proximal GSV trunk,patent distal GSV communicated with a superficial vein and mild reflux in the veins, 2/38 (5. 3% ). Conclusions Clinical examination and duplex ultrasound scan demonstrated excellent results of varicose veins with incompetent GSV treated with ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy 40 months after the treatment. Sclerotherapy is less invasive treatment option for varicose veins with incompetent GSV with satisfactory clinical and cosmetic outcome.

Objective To investigate the expression of Phosphorylated-signal transduction and activators of transcription 3 (P-STAT3) proteins in human prostate tissue from patients received re-peated biopsies. And consider the usefulness of detecting expression of P-STAT3 in early diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCA). Methods Fifty-eight patients (29 cases of PCA, and 29 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)) who had received repeated biopsies were involved in this study. Immu-nolabelling has been carried out on PCa patients' samples of cores from initially negative biopsies, typ-ical cores from cancer field, and other cores of the same batch biopsies showing no sign of prostate cancer. BPH patients' samples of cores from initial biopsies were set as control. All specimens were done immunohistochemistry stain with anti-P-STAT3 monoclonai antibody. The association of P-STAT3 expression in prostate tissues with the pathology result was evaluated. Results Compared with 10.3% in specimens of patients free of prostate cancer, the positive rate of anti-P-STAT3 stained in typical cores from cancer field, other cores of the same batch biopsies showing no sign of prostate cancer, and cores from initially negative biopsies, was 93.1 % (27/29), 82.8 % (24/29) and 86.2 % (25/29), respectively. There were significant differences of these values between former and laters' (X2=60.123,P=0.000). If P-STAT3 positive in tissue of initially biopsies was considered as the di-agnostic standard of prostate cancer, then it would show a relatively high sensitivity (86.2%) and specificity (89.7%). Conclusion IHC stain for P-STAT3 in prostate biopsy samples could be served as an adjunct to the current diagnostic approach to prostate biopsy for early diagnosis of pros-tate cancer.
