Objective To analyze and evaluate the safety and efficacy of modified Pie-crusting ( PC) technique for releasing medial tightness during primary total knee arthroplasty ( TKA) . Methods We completed primary TKA by the same performer with modified PC technique in 30 patients (34 knees) with genu varus from March 2014 to June 2016.By using a special curved scalpel with width limit of 3 mm and depth limit of 5 mm to poke the tension parts , we released the anterion bondle of superficial medial collateral ligament ( sMCL) and posteromedial corner structures ( PMCS) during tension happened in extension , and we released the posterior bondle of sMCL during tension happened in flexion .According to the gap value measured intraoperatively , we divided these cases into three groups: extension with flexion tension group ( 10 knees ) , extension tension group ( 13 knees ) , and flexion tension group (11 knees).The difference between medial and lateral gap value no more than 1 mm was defined as gap balance.We calculated the gap balance rate of each group .Series of weighted frontal X-ray were conducted at fixed period to evaluate the varus angle of the knee postoperatively.The range of motion (ROM), HSS scores and WOMAC scores were also recorded at the same time . Results Among the 34 knees , 31 knees reached the medial and lateral gap balance at both extension and flexion .There was a difference of 2 mm in medial and lateral gap value at extension in 1 knee and the same difference at flexion in the other 2 knees.The total postoperative gap balance rate was 91.2%( 31/34 ).The constrained inserts were implanted in 3 cases.No technical-related complications happened after the surgery.After the releasing procedure, the flexion gap value had an increase of 1 mm (range, 1-3mm) in the extension tension group , and the extension gap value had an increase of 1 mm ( range, 1-2 mm) in the flexion tension group, without significant difference (Z=-1.118, P=0.264).The ROM was 83.3°±14.7°preoperatively and 100.7°±14.2° postoperatively (t=-7.714, P=0.000).The median alignment of the knee was 11.5°(range, 7°-32°) preoperatively and 1° (range, 0°-4°) postoperatively (Z=-5.092,P=0.000).The HSS scores were (42.7 ±16.3) points preoperatively and (88.1 ± 9.9) points postoperatively (t=-21.868, P=0.000).The WOMAC scores were (76.2 ±8.2) points preoperatively and (11.4 ± 9.7) points postoperatively (t=31.726, P=0.000).All of them were significantly improved in comparison with those before the surgery. Conclusions Using modified PC technique is safe and effective in medial releasing during primary TKA .Both extension and flexion gap value will be affected by releasing tensed fiber at extension or flexion position .

The projection from the ventral posterior nucleus (VP) of the thalamus to the somatic sensory cortical area (SmI) in the rat was studied with the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) method.When injections were made into the anterior part of SmI (Brodmann 3), labeled cells were found in the ventral area of caudal VP. When injections were made into the posterior part of SmI (Brodmann 3,1), Iabeled cells were observed in the dorsal area of caudal VP. With injections located near the superior part of SmI (Brodmann 3), labeled cells were found in the lateral area of VP. When injections were made into the inferior part of SmI (Brodmann 2), labeled cells were seen in the medial area of VP.All labeled cells were observed in the injected side, indicating that the projection is uncrossed.Neurons in VP Projecting to Brodmann 2 is less than those projecting to Brodmann 3.Relationship between the quantity of labeled neurons and the amount of projection fibers was discussed.

Objective:To explore and evaluate the application of flipped classroom in the integrated curriculum of pathology and pathophysiology overview.Methods:This study included in 172 students from the 8-year program of clinical medicine of Batch 2016 (observation group), and 142 students of Batch 2014 (control group). The observation group adopted traditional classroom teaching combined with flipped classroom teaching, and the control group used only traditional classroom teaching. In the observation group, the teaching contents were redesigned in the form of flipped classroom. The relevant knowledge points were provided before class. Group discussions and in-class presentations were used in the teaching. And the cultivation of students' learning autonomy, interaction and innovation were emphasized. The teaching evaluation was obtained from the questionnaire survey and final exam performance of the two groups of students. SPSS 21.0 was used for t test. Results:Students in the observation group had high satisfaction with flipped classroom which was helpful to improve students' independent learning ability, oral expression ability and innovative thinking ability. However, there was no significant difference in the final exam scores between the two groups ( P=0.306). Conclusion:Flipped classroom teaching can improve students' interest in learning and stimulate their independent learning and innovation. However, the teaching effect evaluated only by the final performance can't reflect the superiority of flipped classroom, which should be assessed by more evaluation indexes.

Objective: To study the effects of vitamin E and selenium on apoptosis and c-Myc expression in human leukemia cells. Methods: DNA gel electrophoresis and Northern blotting hybridization were used to detect the apoptosis and the expression of c-Myc gene, respectively. Human leukemia cell line HL-60 and K562 were cultured in vitro. Results: The apoptosis of HL-60 and K562 cells were induced after being exposed to vitamin E (100 ?mol/L) and selenium (8 ?mol/L) for 24 hours, respectively. In HL-60 cell line, c-Myc mRNA was down-regulated significantly by vitamin E(100 ?mol/L),but not selenium(8 ?mol/L).In contrast, the expression of c-Myc gene was repressed by selenium(8 ?mol/L) and not by vitamin E(100 ?mol/L) in K562 cell. Conclusion: Our observations suggest that c-Myc down-regulation and induction of apoptosis by selenium and vitamin E are important pathways in repressing leukemia cell proliferation.The results suggest there are different mechanisms of repressing leukemia cell proliferation for selenium and vitamin E.
