OBJECTIVE: To review the studies about the tibial-graft fixation methods on anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, in order to provide clinical reference. METHODS: The literature about the tibial-graft fixation methods on ACL reconstruction at home and abroad was extensively reviewed, and the factors that affect the selection of fixation methods were summarized. RESULTS: The knee flexion angle, graft tension, and graft fixation device are mainly considered when the tibial-graft was fixed on ACL reconstruction. At present, the graft is mainly fixed at 0°/30° of knee flexion. The study shows that the knee joint is more stable after fixed at 30°, while the incidence of knee extension limitation decrease after fixed at 0°. In terms of graft tension, a good effectiveness can be obtained when the tension level is close to 90 N or the knee flexion is 30° to recover the affected knee over-restrained 2 mm relative to the healthy knee. In terms of the graft device, the interference screw is still the most commonly used method of tibial-graft fixation, with the development of all-inside ACL reconstruction in recent years, the cortical button fixation may become the mainstream. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic reconstruction is the main treatment of ACL rupture at present. However, there is no optimal fixation method for the tibial-graft, the advantages and disadvantages of each fixation methods need to be further studied.

Chronic obstructive pneumonia cancer transformation refers to the malignant transformation of long-term repeated chronic inflammation of the lung. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pneumonia cancer transformation always belong to the deficiency of origin and excess of signs. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease causes damage to the qi of the lung, spleen and kidney. Qi is yang, and qi deficiency leads to yang deficiency. Yang deficiency and abnormal warm would result in qi stagnation, phlegm coagulation and blood stasis. It is the key to the transformation of chronic obstructive pneumonia cancer. Kidney yang is the root of yang qi. Deficiency of kidney yang is the initiating factor for the transformation of chronic obstructive pneumonia cancer. Deficiency of lung yang is the fundamental factor for the transformation of chronic obstructive pneumonia cancer. Deficiency of kidney yang and deficiency of spleen yang are the driving factors for the transformation of chronic obstructive pneumonia cancer. Therefore, this article discussed the role of kidney yang in the transformation of chronic obstructive pneumonia cancer from the theory of "Qi Zhu Xu Zhi", in order to broaden the thinking of clinical diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Objective: To evaluate the accuracy of a 3D-printed template used to assist the preparation of tibial tunnel in reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Methods: Twenty healthy adult cadaveric knees were scanned by computed tomography(CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The knees were from 11 males and 9 females who had died at an average age of 36 years (range, from 27 to 68 years) and from 8 left and 12 right sides. Individualized 3D reconstruction models of the knee joint were established based on their imaging data. According to the anatomic footprints of the virtual tibial tunnel, 20 individualized navigation templates were designed and printed by 3D printing. The templates were used to assisst preparation of tibial tunnels in the ACL reconstruction for the 20 cadaveric knees. After operation, CT scanning was conducted again to compare the corresponding postitions between the preoperative virtual tunnel and the postoperative actual tunnel. The positions of the tibial tunnel were described by the Tsukada method. Results: The ratio of the distance between the tunnel outlet center and the medial edge of the tibia to the distance between the median and lateral edges of the tibial plateau was 49.7%±2.1% for the preoperative virtual tibial tunnel and 48.8%±2.8% for the postoperative actural tunnel, showing no significant difference between them (t=1.971, P=0.063). The ratio of the distance between the tunnel outlet center and the anterior edge of the tibia to the distance between the anerior and posterior edges of the tibial plateau was 41.3%±1.3% for the preoperative virtual tibial tunnel and 40.3%±3.7% for the postoperative actural tunnel, showing no significant difference between them(t=1.494, P=0.152). Conclusion 3D printing can be used to design and manufacture a navigation template which can accurately assist preparation of tibial bone tunnel in ACL reconstruction.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to explore the effects and mechanisms of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) anti-differentiation non-coding RNA (ANCR) on the osteogenesis of osteoblast cells in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Mice models of PMOP were established. ANCR expression and intracellular calcium ions were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and laser confocal microscopy, respectively. ANCR was silenced in osteoblast cells from PMOP mice by the transfection of siRNA-ANCR (si-ANCR). The proliferation and apoptosis of osteoblast cells was analyzed by MTT and flow cytometry, respectively. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium nodules were examined by ALP and alizarin red staining assay, respectively. The expression of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), runt related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), and OSTERIX was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Furthermore, an osteogenesis model was constructed in mice, and osteoid formation was observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The interaction between lncRNA-ANCR and EZH2 was further identified by RNA pull-down assay. RESULTS: ANCR expression and intracellular calcium ions were increased in PMOP mice. Si-ANCR significantly increased the proliferation, ALP activity, calcium deposition of osteoblast cells and decreased apoptosis. ANCR and EZH2 were down-regulated by si-ANCR, while RUNX2 and OSTERIX were upregulated. Si-ANCR also promoted osteoid formation in mice treated with hydroxyapatite-tricalcium phosphate. In addition, ANCR specifically bound to EZH2. CONCLUSION: Silencing ANCR promotes the osteogenesis of PMOP osteoblast cells. The specific binding of ANCR with EZH2 suppressed RUNX2, thereby inhibiting osteogenesis.

Objective: To investigate the heterotopic osteogenesis of tissue engineered bone using the co-culture system of vascular endothelial cells (VECs) and adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) as seed cells. Methods: The partially deproteinized biological bone (PDPBB) was prepared by fibronectin combined with partially deproteinized bone (PDPB). The ADSCs of 18-week-old Sprague Dawley (SD) rats and VECs of cord blood of full-term pregnant SD rats were isolated and cultured. Three kinds of tissue engineered bone were constructed in vitro: PDPBB+VECs (group A), PDPBB+ADSCs (group B), PDPBB+co-cultured cells (VECs∶ADSCs was 1∶1, group C), and PDPBB was used as control group (group D). Scanning electron microscopy was performed at 10 days after cell transplantation to observe cell adhesion on scaffolds. Forty-eight 18-week-old SD rats were randomly divided into groups A, B, C, and D, with 12 rats in each group. Four kinds of scaffolds, A, B, C, and D, were implanted into the femoral muscle bags of rats in corresponding groups. The animals were killed at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after operation for gross observation, HE staining and Masson staining histological observation, and the amount of bone collagen was measured quantitatively by Masson staining section. Results: Scanning electron microscopy showed that the pores were interconnected in PDPB materials, and a large number of lamellar protein crystals on the surface of PDPBB modified by fibronection were loosely attached to the surface of the scaffold. After 10 days of co-culture PDPBB and cells, a large number of cells attached to PDPBB and piled up with each other to form cell clusters in group C. Polygonal cells and spindle cells were mixed and distributed, and some cells grew along bone trabeculae to form cell layers. Gross observation showed that the granulation tissue began to grow into the material pore at 2 weeks after operation. In group C, a large number of white cartilage-like substances were gradually produced on the surface of the material after 4 weeks, and the surface of the material was uneven. At 12 weeks, the amount of blood vessels on the surface of group A increased, and the material showed consolidation; there was a little white cartilage-like material on the surface of group B, but the pore size of the material did not decrease significantly; in group D, the pore size of the material did not decrease significantly. Histological observation showed that there was no significant difference in the amount of bone collagen between groups at 2 weeks after operation ( F=2.551, P=0.088); at 4, 8, and 12 weeks after operation, the amount of bone collagen in group C was significantly higher than that in other 3 groups, and that in group B was higher than that in group D ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference between group A and groups B, D ( P>0.05). Conclusion: The ability of heterotopic osteogenesis of tissue engineered bone constructed by co-culture VECs and ADSCs was the strongest.

ObjectiveTo investigate the detection results of WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% in patients with knee infection after operation. Methods The study was conducted from March 2012 to January 2015. Twenty patients were collected in the study. The values of WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% were compared and analyzed between pre-operation and post-operation of 1,3 and 7 days. Results The values of WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% in the post-operation of 1 day were higher than those in the pre-operation,and there were statistically significances (P < 0.05). The values of ESR in the post-operation of 3 and 7 days were higher than that in the pre-operation, with statistically significances(P < 0.05). However,the values of WBC,CRP and GR% in the post-operation of 3 and 7 days were no statistically significances compared with those in the pre-operation(P > 0.05). Conclusion WBC,CRP,ESR and GR% have good reference value for early diagnosis and treatment,which can be used as screen testing indexes in the early knee infection.

We used ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC/MS) for analyzing and identifying the active components of newborn calf serum (NCS) and fetal bovine serum (FBS). The results demonstrated significant differences in the components between NCS and FBS. FBS appeared to have more complex components than NCS, with mass to ratios (m/z) of the substances of 498, 273 and 448. These substances in FBS may be the main active components to support the proliferation and differentiation of cells.
