Objective To investigate the value of MRI diagnosis in tangential osteochondral fracture.Methods 1 7 patients with tangential osteochondral fracture were examined by MRI,and the related signs were analyzed,including the subluxation or disloca-tion of patellofemoral joint,the injury or fracture of bone and cartilage,the injury of meniscus,the injury of medial patella retinacu-lum and ligament,the effusion articular capsule.we investigated the role of X-ray film,CT,MRI,compared with arthroscopy.Re-sults MRI showed subluxation of patellofemoral joint(Ⅰtype 12 cases、Ⅱtype 3 cases、Ⅲ type 1 case)in 1 6 cases,1 case had mild move of patella.All of 1 7 cases were found fracture in bone or cartilage of the inferior medial part of patella and the anterior lateral part of lateral femoral condyle.All cases were found the injury of medial patella retinaculum(Ⅰtype 7 cases、Ⅱtype 9 cases、Ⅲ type 1 case),3 cases were found the injury of MCL,2 cases were found the injury of ACL.3 cases were found the injury or tear in anteri-or horn of meniscus.1 1 cases were found articular capsule filling with simple effusion,5 cases were found articular capsule filling with hemorrhagic effusion,1 case was found articular capsule filling with hemorrhagic effusion and fat granule.Conclusion MRI can clearly show tangential osteochondral fracture and its accompanying changes:the subluxation or dislocation of patellofemoral joint, the injury or fracture of bone and cartilage,the injury of meniscus,the injury of medial patella retinaculum and other ligament,the articular capsule effusion.

Objective To investigate the curative effects of curcumin(CUR)or dexamethasone (DXM)on ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI)of rat lung grafts.Methods Male SD rats were randomly divided 4 groups:CUR group(CUR was administered intraperitoneally to both donors and recipients at 3 h prior to operation);DXM group(DXM was administered intraperitoneally at 30 min prior to operation);vehicle group(Animals were injected with the DMSO to both donors and recipients at 3 h prior to operation);sham group(Time-matched control animals underwent the same surgery,except that no graft was implanted).Six animals were sacrificed at different reperfusion periods of 2 h and 24 h,respectively.Oxygenation indexes(PO_2/FiO_2),lung injury scores,wet/dry ratio(W/D)and myeloperoxidase(MPO)activity in the transplanted lung were measured.Malondialdehyde(MDA), total anti-oxidative capacity(TAOC),tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-?and interleukin(IL)-6 in the transplanted lung and serum were determined.Results The levels of LPV PO_2/FiO_2 were significant- ly higher in the CUR and DXM groups than in the vehicle groups both 2 and 24 h after reperfusion,re- spectively(P

Probability of causation (PC) was used to facilitate the adjudication of compensation claims for cancers diagnosed following exposure to ionizing radiation. In this article, the excess cancer risk assessment models used for PC calculation are reviewed. Cancer risk transfer models between different populations, dependence of cancer risk on dose and dose rate, modification by epidemiological risk factors and application of PC are also discussed in brief.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the clinical effect of closed reduction and interlocking intramedullary nailing in the treatment of femoral shaft fracture.
METHODSFrom March 2006 to December 2011,103 patients with femoral shaft fracture were treated by closed reduction and interlocking intramedullary nailing including 76 males and 27 females with an average age of 36 years old ranging from 19 to 55 years old. According to AO classification,there were 64 cases with type A,27 with type B, 12 with type C. Thirteen cases were open fractures including 5 cases with Gustilo type I , 8 with Gustilo type II . The time of bone healing were observed after operation, the knee function recovery was evaluated by HSS scoring standard at 1 year after operation.
RESULTSThe intraoperative complications included femoral neck fracture in 1 case and proximal femoral fracture in 1 case,both of the patients were treated with reconstructive intramedullary interlocking nail and the fractures healed postoperatively. One patient was suffered from common peroneal nerve injury,which were fully recovered at 4 months later after medical treatment. All the patients were followed up from 12 to 28 months (averaged 22 months). All of the fractures were healed well and the average healing time was 3 to 9 months (averaged 5 months). All the hip joints were recovered to normal function. The average HSS was 90.89±5.06 at 1 year after operation.
CONCLUSIONInterlocking intramedullary nailing is the preferred treatment for patients with femoral shaft fracture. Carefully operating and closed reduction can reduce the complications.

OBJECTIVETo verify the regulatory effects of acupuncture on exercise tolerance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at stable phase.
METHODSThirty cases of COPD were randomly divided into a treatment group (16 cases) and a placebo group (14 cases). Based on specified aerobic exercise, acupuncture was applied in the treatment group and placebo acupuncture was used in the placebo group. The acupoints included Danzhong (CV 17), Rugen (ST 18), Guanyuan (CV 4), Zhongwan (CV 12), Tianshu (ST 25) and so on. The needle did not penetrate into the skin for the placebo group. The treatment was required for 2 to 3 times per week for totally 5 weeks. The indices of exercise tolerance, including 6-min walking distance (6-MWD), exercise time, maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max) forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC), maximum ventilatory volume (MVV), St. George respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ) were observed in two groups before and after treatment.
RESULTS(1) Exercise tolerance: the differences of 6-MWD and exercise time were statistically significant between groups, which were more superior in the treatment group (both P<0.01); the VO2max was significantly increased after treatment in the treatment group (P<0.05), but there was no difference between two groups (P>0.05). (2) Pulmonary ventilation function: the differences of FEV1%, FEV1/FVC and MVV% were statistically significant between groups, which were more superior in the treatment group (P<0.05, P<0.01); (3) SGRQ: the SGRQ was significantly improved after treatment in the treatment group (P<0.05), but there was no difference between two groups (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe acupuncture could improve the exercise tolerance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at stable phase, and shorten the onset time of aerobic exercise. Besides, acupuncture combined with aerobic exercise could effectively improve the pulmonary function.

Objective To investigate the molecular genetic causes and their characteristics of deafness from patients with nonsyndromic hearing loss in Gansu province.Methods Peripheral blood samples were obtained from a total of 375 patients with nonsyndromic hearing loss to extract genomic DNA.Three genes of GJB2, mitochondrial DNA 12SrRNA, and SLC26A4 were screened for mutations in our study cohort using SNPscan technology.Results Among 375 patients, 23 patients were found to carry the homoplasmic mtDNA12SrRNA A1555G mutation, and 2 patients were detected to carry the homoplasmic mtDNA12SrRNA C1494T mutation.Forty-two cases(11.2%) were caused by GJB2 mutations, including 31cases(8.3%) of homozygous mutations, 11 patients(2.9%) of compound heterozygous mutations, and 25 cases(6.7%) of single homozygous mutations.c.235delC was the most prevalent GJB2 mutation with the allele frequency of 8.8%.Twenty-nine cases (7.7%) were caused by SLC26A4mutations, including 17cases(4.5%) of homozygous mutations, 12 patients(3.2%) of compound heterozygous mutations, and 16 cases(4.3%) of single homozygous mutations.c.919-2A>G and c.2168A>G were the most common SLC26A4 mutation, the allele frequencies were 5.2% and 2.0%, respectively.Conclusion A high incidence of mtDNA12SrRNAA1555G mutation is found in nonsyndromic hearing loss patients from Gansu province, while the incidence of GJB2 and SLC26A4 mutations is similar to the level of the overall Chinese deaf population.These findings demonstrate that a total of 25.6% of deaf patients have inherited hearing impairment caused by GJB2, SLC26A4, and mitochondrialDNA12SrRNA mutations.As a result 36% patients and family member can acquire effective genetic counseling.
