Objective To conduct a hiomechanical comparison of the four common internal fixation methods for the anterior eruciate ligament(ACL)avulsion fractures of displaced tibial eminence.Methods Sixteen fresh cadaver knee joints were used and randomized into four equal groups of four fixation methods:antegrade wiring group, retrograde wiring group,suturation group,and intramedullary screw group.The knee joint specimens were fixed at flexion of 30?and subject to continuous stretch stresses of 30 N,60 N and 90 N respectively on a material testing machine(MTS 858 Bionix test system,USA)which conducted a simulated Lachman test.The specimens were scanned at different angles by a three dimensional laser scanner.Data were recorded and processed by image software to es- tablish three-dimensional structure models of femur,tibia and knee joint.The test results were analyzed statistically on a computer.Results There were no obvious differences between each fixation group in the length change of ACL when the stresses were 30 N and 60 N(P>0.05).Under 90 N stress,however,the mean length change between the femoral and tibial attachments of ACL was the smallest(4.8?1.7)mm(2.5 to 6.2 mm)in the suturation group(P<0.05). There were no distinct differences between the intramedullary screw group and the retrograde wiring group in the changes of A CL shift(P=0.214).The average front shift in the retrograde wiring group was(6.2?1.2)mm(4.8 to 8.2 mm) and significantly smaller than that in the antegrade wiring group(P<0.05).The antegrade wiring group made the largest average front shift under different stresses and its average front shift was(7.2?1.3)mm(5.6 to 8.7 mm). Conclusions The knee joint stability provided by the suturation fixation is distinctly better than that by the other three fixation methods.The antegrade wire fixation provides the poorest knee joint stability.There is hardly any difference between intramedullary screw fixation and retrograde wiring fixation.

OBJECTIVETo explore the conversion rule of serological blood group and blood group substance after successful allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and to provide theory for clinical special blood type identification and blood transfusion.
METHODSThe growth cycle of recipient WBC and RBC, RBC chimera, blood group antibody production and remaining in full transition were observed. Conversion rule of blood group substance, contradiction between cells typing and sera typing were detected by saline medium tube method and microcolumn gel method after stem cells transplantation.
RESULTSThe average time of engraftment in 21 recipients was about 18.6 days, RBC growth cycle in 8 major blood type incompatibility was 56.6 days, 25.9 days in 9 minor blood type incompatibility, 67 days in 4 bidirectional blood type incompatibility (P < 0.01). The ratio of RBC chimeric growth was 1:9, gradually converse to donor's blood group. Residue of recipient anti-A(B) was left after conditioning regimen, disappeared after full transformation, and recipient anti-A(B) was converse to donor's blood type in major blood type incompatibility. 5 A blood type recipient donated by O blood type blood generated anti-B instead of anti-A, 3 B blood type recipient generated only anti-A instead of B in minor blood type incompatibility, and 1 AB blood type recipient donated by A did not generate anti-B. Among 4 bidirectional blood type incompatibility, 2 B blood type recipient donated by A blood type blood did not generate anti-B, 2 A recipient by B could not produce anti-A. Recipient blood group substance helped original ABO blood type substance remain unchanged.
CONCLUSIONAmong patient with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, recipient's ABO and RBC blood type can be converse to donor's, but there is significant difference between patients of serological blood group and of normal people (P < 0.01). Recipient blood group substance helps original ABO blood type substance remain unchanged (P > 0.01).

Objective To discuss the serum value of human epididymis protein 4(HE4) in the diagnosis of lung can-cer and to analyse the serum levels of HE4 in different pathological types and TNM staging of lung cancer patients. Meth-ods Forty-seven patients with lung cancer and thirty-one healthy controls were selected to join this study. According to various pathological types and TNM staging, the selected lung cancer patients were divided into different subgroups under the two categories. The serum HE4 levels were compared between subgroups. ROC curves of serum HE4 level and serum CEA level were drawn for the diagnosis of lung cancer with the pathological diagnosis as the golden standard. Results There was significantly higher level of serum HE4 in lung cancer group[(253.47±170.03) pmol/L] than that of healthy group [(84.09±51.03) pmol/L](t=5.365). There were no significant differences in serum levels of HE4 between different pathological subgroups of lung cancer patients [non-small cell carcinoma group (241.34±161.81) pmol/L vs small cell carcinoma group (293.5±198.76) pmol/L, t=0.847;squamous cell carcinoma group (304.29±287.61) pmol/L, adenocarcinoma group (224.39± 122.15) pmol/L and small cell carcinoma group F=0.969;and different TNM staging subgroups [ (stageⅠ~Ⅲgroup (255.27± 183.04) pmol/L vs stageⅣgroup (288.16±216.49) pmol/L, t=0.528]. Compared with ROC curves of serum HE4 and serum CEA,the area under the curve (AUC) of serum HE4 (0.902) was larger than that of serum CEA(0.765),( P>0.001). When the serum level of HE4 was 149.145 pmol/L, the sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of lung cancer were 72.3% and 90.3%. When the serum level of CEA was 4.685μg/L, the sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of lung cancer were 57.4%and 83.9%. Conclusion The serum level of HE4 is a sensitive and specific tumor marker in lung cancer. There are no significant differences in the serum levels of HE4 between different pathological types and different TNM staging in lung cancer patients. The detection of serum levels of HE4 are useful for the diagnosis of lung cancer.
