ObjectiveTo observe and compare the efficacy of two types of microencapsulated rat islets xenotransplanted into diabetic mice. MethodsThe mice diabetic model made with injecting 3% Streptozotosin through tail vein. Four groups were assigned: control group, naked islet transplantation group, alginate-BaCl2 microencapsulated islet transplantation group, agarose-PSSa microencapsulated islet transplantation group.300 islets were transplanted under the renal envelope of each diabetic mice respectively. ResultsThere were no significant difference in mean level of the blood glucose before transplantation among four groups. One week after transplantation, the respective mean level of the blood glucose in four groups were (7.26±1.56) mmol/L in alginate-BaCl2 microencapsulated islet transplantation group, (7.14±1.04) mmol/L in agarose-PSSa microencapsulated islet transplantation group, (7.42±1.52) mmol/L in naked islet transplantation group and (22.54±1.24) mmol/L in control. There were significant difference between the two encapsulated islet groups and the other two groups. The survived period of the two encapsulated islet transplantation groups were longer than that of the other two groups. The survived period of the alginate-BaCl2 microencapsulated islet transplantation group was longer than that of the agarose-PSSa microencapsulated islet transplantation group (92 d vs 56 d),the same as the time of keeping nomal blood glucose level (76 d vs 41 d). ConclusionMicroencapsulated rat islets with this two materials can survive in diabetic mice with their biological activity, and the alginate-BaCl2 microcapsules are better than the agarose-PSSa microcapsules.

Objective To explore the efficacy of arthroscopic treatment for acute avulsion fracture of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) using double titanium plate TightRope. Methods From December 2014 to January 2015, two cases with acute avulsion fracture of PCL were treated with double titanium plate TightRope under arthroscopy, after assessment of three dimensional reconstructive CT and MRI. Rehabili-tation was carried out after operation. Results One case succeeded with double titanium plate TightRope, and rehabilitation could be per-formed early postoperatively. Another case failed in TightRope fixation, and accepted two internal hollow screws fixation instead. Rehabili-tation was delayed until two weeks postoperatively. The function of the knee was satisfactory in the former patient after three months, who could extend the knee in a normal range, without pain or locking. The same effect was gained in the latter patient after four months. Conclu-sion For acute tibial avulsion fracture of PCL with larger and intact fragment without osteoporosis, arthroscopic restoration and fixation with double titanium plate TightRope offers the opportunity to achieve anatomic reconstruction and rigid fixation for early rehabilitation in adult patients.
