OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical efficacy of the arthroscopic Mender II stapler for the treatment of patients with meniscus anterior horn injury needing meniscal suture repair.

METHODSAmong 47 patients with meniscus anterior horn injury, 29 patients were male and 18 patients were female, ranging in age from 12 to 31 years old, with a mean age of (20.53± 4.12) years old. The duration of disease ranged from 3 to 35 days, and the average duration was (12.43±5.74) days. The Mender II stapler was used to carry out arthroscopic suture from outside to inside. The Lysholm knee scoring system was used to evaluate and analyze preoperative and postoperative symptoms, such as pain, limping embolism and so on.

RESULTSForty-six patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 12 to 48 months, with a mean of (20.53±4.12) years. The incision healed at the first stage without important vessels and nerves injuries. The symptoms of the locked knee joint disappeared, and symptoms such as pain, limp, swelling and limitation of activity improved. The Lysholm score increased from preoperative 52.33±7.31 to postoperative 86.74±6.92.

CONCLUSIONUsing Mender II stapler to treat patients with meniscus anterior horn injury who were treated with arthroscopic suture from outside to inside is effective to improve symptoms, and to obtain good short-term results.

Objective To affirm the expression of Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) on the surface membrane of platelet and to explore the immunomodulatory factors[(interlukine-8(IL-8),β-thromboglobulin(β-TG), soluble CD40 ligand(sCD40L)] released by platelets after platelets stimulated by TLR4 ligand.Methods TLR4 expressed on the platelet was detected by flow cytometry. Monoclonal anti-human FcγRⅡantibody(Ⅳ.3)-treated human platelets were cultured with LPS in the presence or absence of blocking monoclonal antibody to human TLR4. The release of IL-8, β-TG, sCD40L were measured by specific enzymelinked immunosorbent assay. Results Human platelets could express functional TLR4. The detection rate of TLR4 on platelets were decreased after LPS involvement(P<0.01). It was noted that sCD40L and β-TG were present in large concentration in the release of platelets stimulated by TLR4 ligand but the release of IL-8 was independent of platelet activation after TLR4 engagement. The concentration of sCD40L and β-TG had no statistical difference between 1-5 μg/ml LPS. The effects of LPS on the modulation of secretory factors were attenuated by preincubation of platelets with an anti-TLR4 monoclonal antibody. Conclusion The TLR4 on platelet could recognize and link LPS, induce the release of sCD40L, β-TG by platelet, but could not influence IL-8.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the feasibility of using percutaneous K-wires fixation after manipulative reduction combining with gypsum or splint fixation for treatment of the Barton fracture of aged people.

METHODSFrom June 2011 to May 2013, 91 patients with closed and fresh Barton fracture were analyzed retrospectively which information was complete. According to different methods these patients were divided into three groups: 33 patients in group A were treated by simplex fixation of gypsum or splint after manipulative reduction, including 20 males and 13 females with an average age of (63.27 ± 5.83) years old; 35 patients in group B were treated by percutaneous K-wires fixation after manipulative reduction combining with gypsum or splint fixation, including 23 males and 12 females with an average age of (64.25 ± 4.53) years old; 23 patients in group C were treated by open reduction and internal fixation including 15 males and 8 females with an average age of (64.04 ± 4.83) years old.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up for 10 to 16 months with an average of 12 months by the method of recheckging in outpatient clinic.

Objective To explore MR perfusion imaging characteristics of rabbit liver.Methods MR perfusion imaging was performed in 10 New Zealand rabbits)weight:2.5～3.0 kg)respectively.The MR perfusion imaging protocol consisted of T1-weighted fast field echo(FFE)sequences with a field of view of 355 mm×75 mm,matrix 89×256,TR/TE of 4.3/1.4 millisecond,slice thickness of 5 mm,intersection gap of 1 mm,NSA of 1.This sequence was repeated 65 times,in 4 slices(in total,80 seconds).The original data were transmitted to PHILIPS workstation and formed MR perfusion images automatically.The MR perfusion images in different liver tissues were observed and analyzed.Results The rabbit liver profiles were depicted on hepatic blood flow(HBF)and hepatic blood volume(HBV)images.Time-intensity curves derived from ROIs drawn in abdominal aorta appeared as a type of rapid increase and decrease,gradually increase in hepatic vein and slowly increase and decrease in normal liver tissues.The peak of MR signal intensity of abdominal aorta,hepatic vein and normal liver tissues were 496±131,323±92,194±58 separately.Conclusion MR perfusion imaging can be performed for rabbit liver successfully by using MR TFE series.The rabbit liver profiles are depicted by HBF and HBV images.The hemodynamics of different liver tissues can be responded by time-intensity curves preliminarily.

Objective: To study the correlation between MR perfusion imaging and pathology after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) using VX2 liver cancer model and to provide a theoretical basis to evaluate the curative effect of TACE. Methods; Fifteen New Zealand white rabbits (weight: 2.5-3.0kg) were randomly divided into three groups, with 5 in each group (group 1, pre-TACE; group2, 3 days after TACE; group 3,1 week after TACE). The rabbit VX2 hepatic carcinoma models were presented in all rabbits. All of the three groups received TACE at three weeks after the tumor was implanted. The MR perfusion imaging was performed before chemoembolization, at 3 days and 1 week after chemoembolization respectively for group 1, 2 and 3. Each animal was then sacrificed for pathology observation after MR examination. Results: The lesions assessed before TACE were hyperintense compared with the surrounding liver parenchyma on DWI images. The volume of neoplastic cells became large. Nucleus was hypertrophic with different size and shape. Phase of nucleous mitosis showed in many cells and necrosis was hardly seen. No obvious difference was found between the peripheral area and the core area. At 3 days after TACE, the heterogeneous hypo-intense was observed on DWI images. Many nuclear fragmentation and caryolysis appeared on pathology. Neoplasm necrosis was seen. At 1 week after TACE, the heterogeneous hypo-intense areas became larger. Light microscopy showed incomplete necrosis. There were increased karyopycnosis and nuclear fragmentation. Conclusion: MR perfusion imaging of VX2 liver cancer corresponds well with pathology and can reflect the outcome of liver cancer after TACE.

Flexible matching has recently been proposed as a method of improving interactions efficiency. In this study, the concept of flexible matching has been introduced, and the applicability of this strategy has also been described based on the power calculation of interaction between HER-2 polymorphism and smoking with breast cancer. A large-sample approximation method is used to estimate the power and efficiency of gene-environment interactions. In the basic scenario, power of interaction between HER-2 polymorphism and smoking of unmatched case-control study appears to be 30% while in the frequency matching case-control study it is 56%. However, when increasing the smoking prevalence in controls, greater power can be obtained (power=74%). Conclusions: Flexible matching strategies can increase the power and efficiency of case-control studies to detect and estimate the gene-environment interactions when compared with traditional frequency matching and it is especially useful under those scenarios when low environmental exposure of population, adverse gene-environment interactions or less paired controls are seen. Optimal matching design should be made available by weighing the benefits and loss due to flexible matching.

The potential of Rhizobium sp. N613 to produce the exopolysaccharide (REPS) was studied in this paper. Using an orthogonal design in a flask-shaker culture system, the fermentation medium and conditions of synthesizing REPS were optimized. Based on these results, the fermentation kinetic parameters were obtained in the batch fermentation with a 10L fermentor. The REPS yield of 11.31g/L was achieved by metabolic regulation during 40 h fed-batch fermentation. Transplanted tumor models of sarcoma 180 in mice were used to evaluate the anti-tumor effect. The result of anti-tumor activities showed that inhibition rate was 53.40%, when dose of REPS was 5mg/kg. These results indicate that REPS has the following properties: the short duration of fermentation, the high yield, the low cost, the effective immunocompetence and thickening. Thus, REPS has the value of development and application.
