Objective To evaluate and compare the clinical effects of forward and reverse anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction through the arthroscopy. Methods From April 2008 to August 2009,97 cases with simple ACL injures were treated with eight strands of hamstring tendons in way of two-bundle and four-tunnel reconstruction. The patients were randomly divided into two groups according to the number of hospital admissions: odd numbers (A group, 47 cases) were treated with forward double-bundle reconstruction and even (B group,50 cases) were treated with reverse. The grafts were fixed with a suspension technique by mini-plates and mini-buttons. Mean follow-up exceeded one year. The function of knee joint were assessed by the IKDC, Lysholm and Tegner rating scale. Results Mean follow-up was 13.71 months.At the last follow-up, 2 patients in A group had a 10°extension deformity and 5 had a less than 15° flexion limitation. All patients in B group showed normal knee extension, and 4 had a 5° flexion limitation. According to Lachman test, there were one case with one plus positive and one with two plus positive in A group,and one with two plus in B. KT-1000 examination (30° flexion and 30 N) showed the side to side mean difference of anterior knee laxity was (1.04±1.11) mm in A group and (0.86±1.12)mm in B. According to objective IKDC evaluation, the results were graded as normal or nearly normal in 46 patients in A group and 48in B. There were no statistical differences in the IKDC, Lysholm, and Teguer scores between two groups.Conclusion Forward or reverse ACL double-bundle reconstruction with eight strands of hamstring tendons can both restore knee stability, and there is no significant deviation between the two techniques.

Objective The study was aimed to investigate the effects of transforming growth factor beta1(TGF-?1)on acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD)after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation(allo-BMT).Methods The recipient was male BABL/C.The donor was male C57BL/6.The murine model of aGVHD had been established by allo-BMT with donor derived T cells.There were four groups in this study:control group,radiation group,transplantation control group and TGF-?1 group.The mice in TGF-?1 group were administered TGF-?1[1 ?g/(kg?d)]subcutaneously two days before transplantation until seven days after it.Results The study showed that the survival time of TGF-?1 group was significantly longer than the transplantation control group,and the aGVHD pathological changes were milder in TGF-?1 group than in transplantation control group.Seven days after transplantation,the level of IL-2 of TGF-?1 group was higher than control group,but significantly lower than transplantation control group.The level of IL-10 of TGF-?1 group was significantly higher than transplantation control group.Conclusion TGF-?1 can prevent the lethal aGVHD and raise the survival rate after allo-BMT in murine model.It may prevent the lethal aGVHD by accommodating the Th1 and Th2 cytokine level in vivo.

Wear of polyethylene (PE) tibial inserts is a significant cause of implant failure of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). PE inserts wear measurement and evaluation is the key in TKA researches. There are many methods to measure insert wear. Qualitative methods such as observation are used to determine the wear and its type. Quantitative methods such as gravimetric analysis, coordinate measuring machines (CMM) and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) are used to measure the mass, volume and geometry of wear. In this paper, the principle, characteristics and research progress of main insert wear evaluation method were introduced and the problems and disadvantages were analyzed.

A hammerhead RZ DNA was designed and synthesized, which can specifically cleave the bcl-2 mRNA. After demonstration of right sequences by sequencing and cleavage activity of RZ by in vitro cleaving experiment, The RZ DNA was recombinated into the pDOR - neo vector to form the recombinant pDOR - RZ. Using lipofectin - mediated DNA transfectionpDOR-RZ was successfully introduced into HL - 60 cells. The RZ expression was observed by Southern, RNA dot blot hybridization and flow cytometry (FCM) . The results demonstrated that (a) the RZ was expressed in 72 hours after transfection; (b) the synthesis of Bel - 2 protein was inhibited by the expression of RZ; (c) apoptotic peak appeared in FCM.

Objectives:To investigate the effect of early enteral feeding on intestinal mucous energy systhesis in burned rats. Mothods:Wistar rats with 30% total body surface area Ⅲ degree burns were randomly divided into 3 groups:early feeding(EF) group,delayed feeding(DF) group,control group.The ATP,ADP,AMP of intestinal mucosa were detected by HPLC and energy charge were calculated according to formula. Results:The contents of ATP,ADP and energy charge in both experimental groups were all fluctuated at much lower level than those in control group,and the above indices exhibited significant decrease in DF group as compared with EF group at all time points except post burned 6 h.On the contrary,the contents of AMP increased more significantly in DF group than in EF group. Conclusions:Early feeding could increase the energy storage and alleviate the catabolism of energy rich phosphates of intestinal mucosa.

Objective　To study the changes of quantitative expression,adhering activity and genomic density polymorphism of complement type 1 in erythrocytes (CR1) of patients with liver cancer (104 patients) and their clinical significance.Methods　Polymerase chain reaction (PCR),HindIII restriction enzyme digestion,the quantitative assay of ECR1 and the adhering activity assay of CR1 in erythrocytes were used.Results　No difference was observed between the patients with liver cancer (29.8%) and healthy individuals (25.3%) in the spot mutation rate of CR1 density gene (χ2 =0.537,P>0.05).The number and the adhering activity of CR1 in patients with liver cancer (0.83±0.22 and 47.1±6.5) were significantly lower than those in healthy individuals (1.26±0.33 and 62.4±7.6; t=10.5,P<0.0001).The number and the adhering activity of ECR1 in high expression genomic type (HH) liver cancer were obviously lower than those of healthy individuals,expecially those of the patients with advanced liver cancer.There was a good relationship between quantitative expression,adhering activity of ECR1 and liver cancer development.Conclusion　Defective expression of CR1 in liver cancer is mostly acquired through central peripheral mechanisms.The changes of CR1 quantitative expression and adhering activity are consanguineously related to the severity and the activity of the development in patients with liver cancer.

Objective To investigated the efficacy of celecoxib for postoperative analgesia after endoscopic nasal surgery. Methods One hundred and twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes aged 18-64 yr were randomly assigned to one of three groups ( n = 40 each): control group ( group C); celecoxib 200 group ( group CEL1 ) and celecoxib 400 group ( group CEL2 ). The patients took celecoxib 200 and 400 mg by mouth at 1 h before induction of anesthesia in group CEL1 and CEL2 respectively. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam,propofol, remifentanil and rocuronium and maintained with iv propofol and remifentanil infusion. VAS was used to assess postoperative pain (0 = no pain, 10 = worst pain). In PACU when VAS score ≥3, the patients were given fentany125 μg iv every 5-10 min until the VAS score ＜ 3. After being discharged from PACU, the patients received celecoxib 200 mg every 12 h for 5 days in the 2 celecoxib groups. Oxycodone 5 mg was used as rescue analgesic when VAS score ≥ 4 until the VAS score ＜ 4. The number of patients who needed fentanyl for analgesia in PACU, the number of patients who needed oxycodone within 6 h, 6-24 h and day 2-5 after operation and side effects after operation were recorded. Analgesic efficacy was assessed at day 5 after operation and the satisfactory rate of patients calculated. Blood samples were obtained at 0, 6 and 48 h after operation for determination of PGE2,6-k-PGF1α and TXB2 concentrations. TXB2/6-k-PGF1α was calculated. Results The number of patients who needed fentanyl in PACU and the number of patients who needed oxycodone within 6 h and 6-24 h after operation were less, the satisfactory rate was significantly higher, and PGE2 concentrations in blood were significantly lower at 48 h after operation in the 2 celecoxib groups than in group C ( P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ). There was no significant difference in each index between the 2 celecoxib groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in TXB2/6-k-PGF1α at each time point among the three groups. Nausea and vomiting occurred in one patient after operation in group C, but side effects were not observed in the 2 celecoxib groups. Conclusion Celecoxib given before and after operation can effectively relieve postoperative pain after endoscopic nasal operation by reducing PGE2 concentrations in blood.
