Objective Congenital dislocation of the patella is rare and produces varying degrees of knee disability with the growth of the child. It should be managed as soon as the diagnosis is made. The purpose of this paper is to describe the procedure and to assess the results of congenital dislocation of patella treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap. Methods Five children with congenital dislocation of patella were treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap between June 1994 and June 1998. There were two boys and three girls. The age of the patients at the surgery varied from 4 to 10 years. Four of them were unilateral and one was bilateral without any other deformities. An S-shaped incision is made to expose the distended medial fascio muscular flap, dislocated patella and well developed vastus medialis. The patellar tendon is detached from its insertion and released from the surrounding retinacula. A hole corresponding to the width of the patella is made in the membrane and another one is made through the synovial membrane and the fibrous capsule. The patellar tendon was sutured into the hole in the tibial metaphysis through the two membrane holes. The iliotibial band was lengthened and the biceps tendon was turned over the abundant medial retinaculum with a part of the vastus medialis to the lateral side of the synovial membrane. The patient was kept in a long leg cast and immobilized for 6 weeks. Results The average period of follow up was three years(range, one year and six months to five years). Four cases were able to extend the knee completely and one case had minus ten degrees in extention. Knee valgus in two patients disappeared after operation and one had a lower patella, but the function of knee was normal without any symptoms and signs. There were no complications in this series. Conclusion The patients with congenital dislocation of patella which is permanent and irreducible must be interfered with operation. Five patients were successfully treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap with less invasive and no complications, therefor it is worthwhile to be recommended for the treatment of congenital dislocation of patella.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum and urine fluorion organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling, and to probe into the clinical application value of concentrations in different degrees and at different time in patients with acute evaluating the sertm and urine fluorion concentration in acute organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling. Method A study was carried out in 23 patients, who suffered from acute organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling and were admitted Zhejiang Quhua Hospital, from December 2000 to December 2008. According to the occupational acute organic fluoride poisoning diagnostic criteria(GBZ66-2002),23 patients were divided into mild poisoning group,moderate poisoning group and severe poisoning group. Serum and urine fluorion concentration of patients at 1,2,3,4,5 d after poisoning were measured by using Ion-Selective Electrodes. Fluorion concentration of 10 staffs of Fluorine chemical company was also measured at the same period as the control group. The values of serum and urine fluorion concentration were analyzed. Differences in serum and urine fluorion concentration between groups at different time points were compared by repeated measures ANOVA and variability were deemed as statistical significance when P < 0.05. Results Compared with mild poisoning group, there was no statistically significant difference ( P > 0.05) in serum and urine fluorion concentration at the same time point in 1 to 5 days after poisoning in moderate poisoning group, but there was statistically significant differences ( P < 0.05 or P <0.01) in severe poisoning group. Compared with moderate poisoning group, there was statistically significant difference ( P < 0.05) in serum and urine fluorion concentration at the same time point in 1 to 5 days after poisoning in severe poisoning group. Serum fluorion concentration in 1 to 5 days after poisoning in each poisoning groupswere statistically higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05), but there was statistically significant elevation ( P< 0.05) in urine fluorion concentration only in 1 day in mild poisoning group, in 1 to 3 days in moderate poisoning groups, in 1 to 5 days in severe poisoning group. Conclusions Serum fluorion concentration can be used as the severity index of diagnosis and determine the extent in 5 days after acute organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling,and urine fluorion concentration can also be used as diagnostic indicators of intoxication, but only in earlier stage or severe poisoning.

Objective To study the factors influenceing patients' family members to make own relative fac-tors patients' families making decision on refusal of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to the critical patients. Method Data were registered based on Utstein Style of 522 patients aged over 15 years, who subjected to in-hos-pital cardiac arrest(CA) in Department of Emergency of The First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College from January 2005 to December 2008. A total of 157 patients' family made refusal decision among the 522 pa-tients, who belonged to the refusal group, and others belonged to the attempt resuscitation group. The associated factors included age, sex, marriage, household register, cause of CA, underlying diseases, capability of activity before CA, life supported with mechanical ventilation, and administration of pressor agents. The refusal decisions were evaluated by using univariate Logistical regression analysis, and then the statistical significant variables were analyzed by using muhivanate Logistical regression analysis. Results Age, household register, cause of CA(car-diac or traumatic),stroke, sudden death, cancer, capability of activity before CA, life supported with mechanical ventilation,and administration of pressor agents were the important factors of making refusal decision (P < 0.01), but sexes or marriage was insignificant related to the refusal decision (P > 0. O5). The independent risk factors re-lated to refusal decision were age (P = 0.034),cancer (P = 0.006),stroke (P = 0.003), and life supported with mechanical ventilation (P = 0.000) in multivariate Logistical regression analysis, but the protective factors were sudden death (P =0.000),cardiac CA (P =0.020) and traumatic CA(P =0.000). Conclusions Age over 60 years, cancer, stroke, and life suppoted with assisted ventilation before CA were factors associated with re-fusal decision making, yet sudden death, cardiac CA and traumatic CA were factors of accepting CPR.

AIM: To observe the effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge (SMB) on left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH)in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and the expression of c-fos. METHODS: 18 SHRs in 8 weeks old were divided into three groups at random. SMB or distilled water(1 g?kg -1?d -1)was injected intraperitoneally to two groups for 10 weeks. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and left ventricular mass index(LVMI)were measured. HE,VG and immunohistochemical staining combined with computed morphometry were used to evaluated the cardiomyocyte size and diameter, the collagen volume fraction(CVF), perivascular circumferential area (PVCA) and c-fos expression in the left ventricular tissue. RESULTS: Compared with 8-week-old rats, the SBP, LVMI, cardiomyocyte size and diameter, CVF, PCVA, c-fos expression increased markedly in the 18th week of SHRs. The LVH stopped and c-fos expression decreased whereas SBP changed slightly in animals treated with SMB. CONCLUSION: Chronic treatment with SMB can inhibit the development of LVH in SHR, which is probably related to the decease of cardiac c-fos.

Objective To explore the effect of Kaolin combined with propranolol on matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in lungs of paraquate (PQ) intoxicated mice and the mechanism of protection for lung injury. Methods Fifty-four ICR mice were randomly divided into three groups, 18 mice in each group: namely control group, PQ intoxicated group and treatment group. The PQ intoxicated model was replicated by intra-gastric administration (ig) of PQ 100 mg/kg; after intoxication, 48 g/kg Kaolin combined with 3.2 mg/kg propranolol intra-gastric administration was immediately given to the treatment group, while in the control group, the same volume of normal saline ig was applied. All the mice were sacrificed at 6, 12 and 24 hours after disposal, and the lung was harvested to test the protein expression level of MMP-9 by Western Blot, and the lung tissue pathological changes were observed.Results There was no statistical significance in the protein expression levels of MMP-9 among the control group, PQ intoxicated group and treatment group at 6 hours after disposal (grey value: 0.655±0.045, 0.656±0.045, 0.641±0.036). The protein expression levels of MMP-9 in PQ intoxicated group were increased significantly compared with those in the control group at 12 hours and 24 hours after disposal (12 hours: 0.824±0.039 vs. 0.634±0.038, 24 hours: 0.742±0.039 vs. 0.658±0.041, bothP < 0.05), while the levels of treatment group were significantly lower than those in the intoxicated group (12 hours: 0.760±0.050 vs. 0.824±0.039, 24 hours: 0.686±0.041 vs. 0.742±0.039, bothP < 0.05). In PQ intoxicated group, early capillary dilation and congestion in lung tissue, a large number of inflammatory cells infiltration with mainly neutrophils in alveolar cavity and a small number of red blood cells exudation were seen at 12 hours; at 24 hours, capillary dilation at alveolar walls, congestion, swelling of endothelial cells, small flakes or large patches of inflammatory cell infiltration with mainly neutrophils in lungs were found. In the treatment group, the lung inflammatory cells infiltration, alveolar capillary dilatation, congestion, swelling of the endothelial cells, etc were also visible, but the degree of severity was significantly milder than those in the intoxicated group.Conclusion The interference of Kaolin combined with propranolol can significantly decrease the protein expression level of MMP-9 in lung tissue of acute paraquat poisoned mice that is possibly one of the mechanisms for prevention and treatment of lung injury in paraquat poisoning.
