Objective To investigate effects of arthroscopic reconstruction of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) using partial peroneus longus tendon autograft in treating recurrent patellar dislocation.Methods Forty-six patients (53 knees) with recurrent dislocation of patella received autologous partial peroneus longus tendon grafting for MPFL reconstruction after arthroscopic lateral retinaculum release from May 2009 to April 2010.Anatomic relation between femoral trochlea and patella,and motion path of patella were observed arthroscopically in adjustment of flexion and extension strength of grafted tendon in different angles.Successively,the tendon ends were fixed within bone tunnel of medial femoral condyle by using absorbable interface screws with synchronous superomedial displacement of tibial tuberosity.Stability of patellofemoral joint,dislocation recurrence,subjective symptoms of affected knees and general function recovery condition of affected limbs were studied.Results All patients were followed up for average 18 months (range,12-24 months),which showed the improvement of knee joint stability,without recurrence of patellar dislocation.Apprehensive test was negative.Axial X-ray films and CT of patella showed normal anatomical relation of patellofemoral joint.The Kujala patellar stability questionnaire scored (54.6 ±5.4) points before operation and (92.3 ±8.9) points after operation (t =55.41,P ＜ 0.01).All patients showed some improvement of motor ability after operation.CT examination showed that the congruence angle of patella and femoral trochlea was improved from preoperative (27.8 ± 8.1) ° to postoperative (2.3 ± 9.4) ° (t =20.87,P ＜ 0.01).Otherwise,ankle joint in the tendon donor site acted well,with normal function.Conclusion Arthroscopic lateral patellar retinaculum release and MPFL reconstruction using partialperoneus longus tendon autograft are effective in treatment of recurrent patellar dislocation in combination with superomedial displacement of tibial tuberosity,and avoid potential complications in tendon removal from around knee joint.

Aim To observe the effects of activation of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 ( ALDH2 ) by ethanol on testis injury of type 2 diabetic rats. Methods Type 2 diabetic rats model were established by high-fat diet combined with low-dose streptozotocin ( STZ ) injec-tions. After the success of modeling, the rats were ran-domly divided into 3 groups ( n =6 ): normal control group (NC), type 2 diabetes group (T2DM) and eth-anol+type 2 diabetes group (EtOH+T2DM). Rats of EtOH + T2DM were treated with low-dose ethanol, then rats of NC and T2 DM were given normal diet for 8 weeks. After 8 weeks, the levels of the fasting blood glucose ( FBG ) , glycosylated hemoglobin ( HbA1 c ) and testosterone were tested, and the ratio of testis weight to body weight ( TW/BW ) was calculated. Morphological changes of testis tissue were observed by optical microscope. The levels of ALDH2 mRNA and transforming growth factorβ1 ( TGF-β1 ) mRNA in tes-tis tissue were measured. The expression of TGF-β1 in testis tissue was observed by immunohistochemical stai-ning, then the positive rate of TGF-β1 was calculated. Results Compared with NC, the levels of FBG, HbA1 c and TW/BW increased significantly and the level of testosterone decreased significantly in T2DM. The morphological observation showed that some semi-niferous tubules atrophied, spermatogenic cells de-creased and arrangemented loosely, Leydig cells de-creased in testicular interstitial. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue decreased significantly, and the level of TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue increased significantly. However, compared with T2DM, the levels of FBG, HbA1c and TW/BW decreased, and the level of testosterone in-creased and the damage of testis tissue was attenuated in EtOH+T2DM. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue increased significantly, and the level TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue decreased significantly. Conclusion Activating AL-DH2 can protect testis in type 2 diabetic rats, which may be related to the downregulation of TGF-β1 ex-pression.

Background and purpose:The morbidity and mortality of lung cancer are currently the highest malignant tumor in China and the world. Most onset age of the illness is after 60 years old. Therefore, surgical resection of lung cancer in the elderly is very worthy of concern. This study aimed to investigate the clinical features, epidemic characteristics and conditions in perioperative period between the elderly and middle-aged patients with lung cancer, and provide the reference for clinical treatment.Methods:Totally 1 019 patients with lung cancer who were admitted to the hospital and accepted the operations in department of thoracic surgery in Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital from Jan. 2007 to Dec. 2012 were analysed retrospectively. The clinical data including gender, pathological type, TNM stage, intraoperative amount of bleeding and post-operative length of hospitalization were compared.Results:There was a signiifcant difference in sexual factors between these two groups (P?0.05), and compared with the middle-aged group, the proportion of male was more higher in the elderly group (76.91%vs 52.81%). Adenocarcinoma was the most common and squamous carcinoma was the next in both two groups. The constituent ratio of the pathlogical type between the elderly group and the middle-aged group was statistically signiifcant (P?0.05). The squamous carcinoma in the elderly group was higher than that in the middle-aged group (37.5%vs 15.6%). On the contrary, adenocarcinoma was more common in the middle-aged group (72.8%vs 50.7%). StagesⅡa,Ⅱb, andⅢa were more common in the elderly group and stagesⅠa, andⅠb were the most clinical stage in the middle-aged group. The clinical stage between two groups was statistically significant (P?0.05).The intraoperative amount of bleeding was higher and the post-operative length of hospitalization was longer in the elderly group, with a signiifcant difference as compared with that in the middle-aged group(P?0.05). And there was a signiifcant difference in incidence of accompanying diseases between the two groups, compared with the middle-aged group, the proportion of accompanying diseases was more higher in the elderly group(58.6%vs42.3%).Conclusion:Elderly patients with lung cancer are more common in males, with adenocarcinoma being the most common. The cancer mostly belongs to a medium or advanced stage. Elderly patients have the trend with more amount of bleeding in operation and lengh of stay.

Objective Severe bronchial stricture due to endobronchial tuberculosis is often accompanied by complex complication,such as obstructiv pneumonia,destroyed lung and bronchiectasis.Its treatment is very diffucult.The present report is to investigate and analyze the indication and efficacy of surgical treatment of bronchial stricture due to severe endobronchial tuberculosis.Methods Reviewed the clinico-pathological records documenting the surgical outcomes in 81 bronchial stricture due to severe endobronchial tuberculosis who underwent lobectomy or pneumonectomy enrolled in our hospital between January 1990 and December 2010.There were 29 male and 52 female.Mean age was(36 ± 12) years (ranged 16-66 years).The three most common reasons of surgery were bronchial stricture accompanied by pulmonary atelectasis,destroyed lung and bronchiectasis(76 cases,93.8％).79 cases had elective operation,whereas one patients required emergency surgery.Pueumonectomy in 51,lobectomy in 16,sleeve resection in 11,segmental resection in 2,and exploratory thoracotomy in 1.If frozen pathological examination showed that endobronchial tuberculosis remained in the bronchial stump,it was covered with muscle flaps,including intercostal muscle flap in 6 cases,latissimus dorsi muscle flap in 5 cases,serratus anterior muscle flap in 5 cases.The mean operative time was 3.2 h (range between 2 h and 5.5 h) and the blood loss averaged 546 ml (range between 100ml and 4 000 ml).The post operative hospital stay averaged(12 ±8)days.Results No intraoperative or early postoperative death occurred.Nine patients developed complications,including BPF in 2,pulmonary infection in 2,empyema in 1,hemorragic shock in 1,hemothorax in 1,incision infection in 1,chylothorax in 1.All 9 cases recovered well after treatment.Pathological examination showed that tuberculosis bronchial remained in the brinchial stump in 13 cases.Neither BPF nor empyema occurred in all the 13 cases.Multivariate analysis revealed that destroyed lung was significant risk factor of postoperative complication.There were 3 late deaths.Five year survival rate was 96.2％.Conclusion Surgical treatment is still the recommeded treatment modatity for bronchial stricture caused by endobronchial tuberculosis due to its excellent results.It should be performed in time when the drug and intraluninal treatment were no effect for avoiding of being progeressed into destroyed lung.

Objective To explore the morphology,cell phenotype and cell function in dendritic cells (DCs) derived from bone marrow after treatment with Sirolimus or Sirolimus combined with sTNFRI-IgGFc gene segment transfection.Method DCs were divided into 5 groups (imDCs,mDCs,Rapa-DCs,sTNFRI-DCs and Rapa-sTNFRI-DCs) according to different interventions.The expresson of MHC-Ⅱ,CD80 and CD86 was detected by flow cytometry.T cell proliferation of the mixed lymphocyte reaction was evaluated by MTT method.The levels of IL-12,IFN-γ and sTNFRI-IgGFc were determined by ELISA.Result On the day 10,the flow cytometry showed that the expression levels of MHC-Ⅱ,CD80 and CD86 on the cell surface in Sirolimus group were significantly higher than the other groups (P＜0.05).The expression level of CD86 in Rapa-sTNFRI group was significantly lower than in imDC group (P＜0.05).MTT results demonstrated that T cell proliferation ability in Sirolimus group,sTNFRI group and Rapa-sTNFRI group were reduced as compared with mDC group (P＜0.05).The ELISA results revealed that the levels of IL-12 and INF-γ in rnDC group were significantly higher than other groups (P＜0.05).The levels of IL-12 and INF-γ in Rapa-sTNFRI group were significantly lower than other groups (P＜0.05).Conclusion Sirolimus combined with modified sTNFRI-IgGFc gene could synergistically inhibit maturation of DCs more effectively than Sirolimus or modified sTNFRI-IgGFc gene used alone.

Objective To describe the surgical technique and outcomes of arthroscopic reconstruction anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and repair of the injured posteromedial complex (PMC) or posterolateral complex (PLC) structures of the knee joint in treatment of multiple ligaments injuries of knee. Methods From March 2005 to May 2007, 43 patients with multiple ligaments injuries of knee underwent arthroscopic reconstruction. Twenty-four patients were treated with arthroscopic reconstruction of combined ACL and PCL with allograft tendons and augmentation of PMC. The other 19 patients were treated with repair the PLC in addition to reconstruction of ACL and PCL. The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm knee score were used for function evaluation. Results All patients were followed up for 24 to 48 months with an average of 33.10±9.65 months. The stability recovered when stress was applied to the knee at 0° and 20° of flexion. According to IKDC there was a significant improvement from severely abnormal (graded D) in 43 cases before surgery to normal (graded A) in 29 cases (67%), nearly normal (graded B) 11 cases (26%) and abnormal (graded C) 3 cases (7%) at follow-up. The average Lysholm score of the all cases were 46.7±4.2 and 89.6±2.8 before operation and at final follow-up, respectively (t=8.563, P＜0.01). Conclusion Excellence clinical results and good stability were achieved with arthrescopic reconstruction of ACL and PCL combined with repair or augmentation of the PMC and PLC simultaneously.

Objective: To learn the sequence characteristics of C2-V4 of HIV-1 env genes and the epitope variation of representative broadly monoclonal neutralizing antibody in Fuxin, so as to provide evidence for the HIV-1 variation trend and the biological characteristics of V3 loop. Methods : The whole blood samples of 112 HIV-1 cases in Fuxin Health Service Center from 2018 to 2019 were collected and the DNA was extracted. The C2-V4 of env genes were amplified by nested-PCR and the PCR products were subjected to sequencing. The bioinformatics analysis was carried out using MEGA software, and the V3-tip motifs, co-receptors, net charge and characteristic amino acids were analyzed using HIV Database. Results: Totally 101 effective gene sequences were obtained, and 5 types of V3-tip motifs were found. Among them, 77 pieces of GPGQ ( 76.24% ) were found in CRF01_AE, CRF07_BC, CRF65_cpx and G subtypes; 19 pieces of GPGR ( 18.81% ) were found in CRF01_AE, CRF07_BC and B subtypes; 3 pieces of GPGH, 1 piece of GPGK and 1 piece of GPGA were only found in CRF01_ AE subtype. The co-receptor was mainly CCR5 ( 84, 83.17% ) . The net charge numbers of V3 loops in CRF01_ AE, CRF07_ BC, B, CRF65_cpx and G were 3.28±1.17, 3.22±0.92, 4.25±0.83, 2.50±0.50 and 3, respectively. The mutation rates of neutralizing antibodies binding b12 and VRC01 were 0-9.90%. The deletion rates of N-glycosylation sites of 295 and 332 were 18.81% and 14.85%, without the loss of both sites. Conclusions The HIV-1 strains in Fuxin from 2018 to 2019 are macrophage-tropic and non-syncytium-inducing, with GPGQ as the main type of V3-tip motif, CCR5 as the main co-receptor, slow replication and low ability to escape neutralizing antibodies.
