[Summary] Gender difference study of meniscus injury shows certain clinical significance in understanding epidemiologic characteristics of meniscus injury .Several large amount case studies demonstrated that the risk of meniscus tears was significantly higher in male than in female .However , in certain kinds of sports and special types or locations of meniscus tears , especially in medial meniscus posterior root tear ( MMPRT ) , there were more females than males .Further large amount case studies were needed for a deeper understanding of meniscus tears .In this paper,we reviewed the current situation and progress of gender difference of menisus tear .

OBJECTIVE:To study the anti-hepatic fibrosis effects of Yidu tiaogan mixture on rats and its mechanism. METH-ODS:60 SD rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,colchicine group(positive control,0.2 mg/kg)and Yi-du tiaogan mixture low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups(2.7,5.4,10.8 mL/kg). Except for normal group,liver fibrosis model was induced in other groups,and they were given relevant medicine intragastrically during modeling,once a day,for 8 weeks. Serum levels of ALT,AST,HA,PCⅢ,CⅣ,TIMP-1,MMP-1,MMP-2,MMP-13,TGF-β1 and TNF-α and the levels of Hyp,SOD,GSH-Px,CAT,MDA,TGF-β1 and TNF-α in liver tissue were detected in rats. RESULTS:Compared with normal group,the serum levels of ALT,AST,HA,PCⅢ,CⅣ,TIMP-1,MMP-2,TGF-β1 and TNF-α were increased significantly in model group,while the serum levels of MMP-1 and MMP-13 were decreased significantly(P<0.05);the levels of Hyp,TGF-β1, TNF-α and MDA in liver tissue were increased significantly,while the levels of SOD,GSH-Px and CAT were decreased signifi-cantly(P<0.05). Compared with model group,the serum levels of ALT,AST,HA,PCⅢ,CⅣ,TIMP-1 and TNF-α as well as the levels of Hyp,TGF-β1,TNF-α and MDA in liver tissue were all decreased significantly of rats in Yidu tiaogan mixture medi-um-dose,high-dose and colchicine groups(P<0.05);the serum levels of MMP-1 and MMP-13 as well as the level of CAT in liver tissue were increased significantly in Yidu tiaogan mixture high-dose group and colchicine group(P<0.05),while the serum levels of MMP-2 and TGF-β1 were decreased significantly(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in above indexes in Yidu tiao-gan mixture low-dose group (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Yidu tiaogan mixture exerts protective effects on liver fibrosis of rat through regulating TIMP/MMP balance,suppressing oxidative stress,decreasing the level of TGF-β1 and reducing deposition of ex-tracellular matrix in liver.

Objective To investigate the correlation between human leukocyte antigens-A,-B,-DRB1 (HLA-A,-B,-DRB1) high resolution alleles and chronic renal failure (CRF) caused by immunoglobulin-a nephropathy (IgAN).Method The polymerase chain reaction-sequence-based typing (PCR-SBT) method was used to investigate the genotypes of HLA-A,-B and-DRB1 high-resolution alleles in 191 cases of CRF caused by IgAN (experimental group) and 503 healthy blood donors (control group).The alleles frequencies between two groups were compared and the association between CRF caused by IgAN and the polyrnorphism of HLA was analyzed.Result (1) There were 25 alleles at A locus,48 alleles at B locus and 32 alleles at DRB1 locus in experimental group.(2) The genetic frequency of HLAA * 2901 [Pc =0.033,OR =10.738,95％ CI (1.193,96.691)],HLA DRB1 * 1106 [Pc =0.0001,OR =0.969,95％ CI (0.944,0.994)],HLA-DRB1 * 1202[Pc =0.002,OR =1.859,95％ CI (1.259,2.745)],HLA-DRB1 * 1401 [Pc =0.021,OR =0.984,95％ CI (0.967,0.998)],HLA-DRB1 * 1602[Pc=0.015,OR=1.915,95％ CI (1.157,3.17)] in experimental group was higher than in control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion There is susceptibility association of HLA-A * 2901,HLA-DRB1 * 1106,HLA-DRE * 1202,HLA-DRB1 * 1401,HLA-DRB1 * 1602 with CRF caused by IgAN.It is concluded that there is a close genetic and immunological correlation between HLA alleles and the pathogenesis of CRF caused by IgAN.

Teacher's career development in British medical school has experienced a very long process from establish to gradually mature.So far,it has already set up its system and its own characters in strategy and teacher's self-development.By analyzing characters of teacher's career development in British medical school including teacher development center,teacher's self-development and assessment for medical educators,we aimed to raise enlightenments on teacher's career development in China.

Objective To find out the proper concentration of ZnSO4?7H2O as foliar fertilizer used for Pinellia ternata, and to provide reference for high yield of P.ternate,effects of zinc on the carbon and nitrogen metabolism in leaves of P.ternata and the yield were studied.Methods Seedlings of P.ternata were employed as the experiment material.At the stage of full seedling,ZnSO4?7H2O of different concentration was sprayed on the leaves,the indexes of carbon and nitrogen metabolism were determined on the day 10,the weight of tubers and bulbils were measured at the sprout tumble stage.Results The yield of P.ternata has an exceedingly significant positive correlation with the contents of soluble sucrose and starch in the leaves,a significant positive correlation with the content of photosynthetic pigment and the aldolase activity,and a negative correlation with the amylase activity.In addition,the yield shows both an exceedingly significant positive correlation whith the nitrate reductase activity and a significant positive correlation with the content of protein.At the stage of full seedling,zinc sprayed on leaves can increase the content of photosynthetic pigment and improve the capability of photosynthesis.Meanwhile,spraying zinc can also promote the accumulation of soluble sucrose and starch in the leaves because of its stimulation on aldolase and inhibition on amylase.Besides,spraying zinc on leaves could improve the activity of nitrate reductase and the content of protein,and finally increase the yield of P.ternata.Conclusion The concentration of 600 mg/L is the best for ZnSO4?7H2O used as foliar fertilizer for P.ternate at the stage of full seedling.
