BACKGROUND:There are controversies about the efficacy of al-arthroscopic rotator cuff repairversus mini-open for the treatment of rotator cuff injury.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the efficacy of al-arthroscopic rotator cuff repairversusmini-open for the treatment of rotator cuff injury by conducting a meta-analysis.
METHODS:A computer-based online search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and CBM databases from January 1966 to November 2015 to screen the relevant articles usingthe key words of“rotator cuff, arthroscopy, mini-open”. Meta-analysis was performed using Revman5.3 software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 11 studies, including 6randomized controled trialsand 5 cohort studies,were selected. The meta-analysis results showed that there were no significant differences in the function and strength of the shoulder joint, pain, motor range, recurrence of rotator cuff avulsion, the incidence rate of ankylosis between both two groups (P> 0.05). These results suggest that the efficacy of al-arthroscopic rotator cuff repair does not differ from those of mini-open for the treatment of rotator cuff injury. However arthroscopic rotator cuff repair induces less soft tissue injury and early incision pain, but better function recovery.

Objective To evaluate the 7th edition American Joint Committee on Cancer/Union for International Cancer Control (AJCC/UICC) tumor node metastasis (TNM) staging system for gastric carcinoma with the 6th edition in Chinese population.Methods A total of 401 gastric cancer patients undergoing surgical resection was staged using the 6th and 7th edition AJCC TNM staging system,respectively.Homogeneity,discriminatory ability,and monotonicity of gradients of two systems were compared using linear trend x2 test,likelihood ratio x2 statistics,and akaike information criterion (AIC) calculations.To compare the accuracy of prognostic evaluation between the 6th and the 7th edition TNM staging system for gastric cancer.Results Significant difference in 5 years survival rate were observed according to the T/N classification using the 6th edition staging system,and there were similar survival curves between T1a and T1b according to the 7th T classification.There was not significant difference between the area under the curve (AUC) of the 6th and the 7th edition staging systems.Conclusions T staging and N classification according to the 7th edition showed better performance,but the 72 TNM staging system was not better in predictive accuracy.

In the teaching of Medical Microbiology,the writers use problem based learning pattern and traditional teaching methods together to complement each other according to the characteristics of students. They improve the quality of teachers constantly,reform the old methods of teaching and evaluation system in order to improve the students'clinical work ability and train their innovation thoughts.

The preclinical screening tests used to research tumor chemoprevention agents by overseas research groups were described. These tests composed a screening system for evaluating tumor chemopreventive agents and should be used to screen tumor prevention agents from traditional Chinese herbs.

AIM: To construct recombinant adenoviral vector carrying the LEDGFp52 gene by homologous recombination in bacteria and to detect its expression in vitro.METHODS: The LEDGFp52 gene was cloned to adenoviral shuttle plasmid pAdTrack-CMV. Then, the resultant pAdTrack-CMV-LEDGFp52 was cotransfected into BJ5 183 bacteria with the adenoviral backbone plasmid pAdeasy-1. The adenoviral plasmid carrying LEDGFp52 was generated with homologous recombination in bacteria, and the adenoviruses were produced in 293 cells. These 293 cells were then infected with adenoviruses, and the expression of LEDGFp52 was detected by CPE (cytopathic effect) and western blot.RESULTS: The titer of Ad-LEDGFp52 adenoviruses was up to 5×1012 pfu/L after proliferation in 293 cells. LEDGFp52 was expressed efficiently in 293 cells after infection.CONCLUSION: The recombinant adenoviruses vector expressing LEDGFp52 was constructed successfully and can be used in further gene transfection experiments.

AIM: To construct and identify LEDGFp52 eukaryotic expression vector for RNA interference.METHODS: Recombinants were designed and established by targeting gene LEDGFp52 and plasmid pGensil-1 based on LEDGFp52 cDNA sequences of Genomes. Two pairs of oligonucleotides were synthesized according to the Tuschl principle and inserted into plasmid pGenSil-I to generate siRNA eukaryotic expression vector. DH5α strains were transformed, plasmids were extracted, and recombinant vectors were identified by the restriction map and the sequence analysis. The cultured cells were transfected by the recombinant plasmid (pGensil-1-RNA. LEDGFp52-1). At 48 hours after transfection, the whole cell protein was extracted, and the protein level was detected using Western blotting with mouse anti-human LEDGFp52 monoclonal antibody.RESULTS: Recombinant plasmids completely concord with the designs by the restriction map and the sequence analysis,the proteinlevel of LEDGFp52 was down regulated at 48hours after transfecting pGensil-1- LEDGFp52-1 expression vector into HeLa cells, the recombinant eukaryotic expression vectors were successfully constructed.CONCLUSION: siRNA recombinant can be successfully constructed by RNAi technique to inhibit the expression of LEDGFp52.

AIM: To construct the prokaryotic expression vector of rhLEDGFp52 gene,to obtain the rhLEDGF p52 protein.METHODS: rhLEDGFp52 gene was constructed into a prokaryotic expression vector pET30a (+) by recombinant DNA techniques and was identified by enzymatic digestion and sequence analysis. rhLEDGFp52 protein was induced expression by IPTG in E.coli BL21 (DE3), it was tested by Western blot and was purified by Ni-NTA His. Bind. Resin.RESULTS: We Successfully constructed the prokaryotic expression vector of rhLEDGFp52 gene and obtained its expression in E.coli BL21 (DE3),it was expressed in a soluble form and detected up to 34.63% of the total bacterial protein expressed in E.coli BL21 (DE3).Western blot analysis demonstrated that rhLEDGFp52 protein could spicifically integrate with LEDGF-ab. After purified by Ni-NTA His. Bind. Resin, the ultimate concentration of purified rhLEDGFp52 protein was 520μ g/ml and its purity was 87.93%.CONCLUSIONS: rhLEDGF p52 protein was obtained that provides an experimental basis for the further study of the biological function of rhLEDGFp52 protein.
