Objective To study the effect of interleukin-6,10 (IL-6,10), C-reactive protein (CRP), and fibrinogen (FIB) on inflammatory response of lower limbs deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Methods Thirty patients with acute lower limb DVT (DVT group) and 30 volunteers (normal control group) were included in this study, and then the concentrations of serum IL-6, IL-10, CRP, and FIB were detected. Results The concentrations of serum IL-6, IL-10, CRP, and FIB of patients in DVT group before treatment were higher than those in normal control group (Plt;0.001). Compared with before treatment, the concentrations of serum IL-6, CRP, and FIB of patients after treatment were lower in DVT group (Plt;0.001), however, the concentration of serum IL-10 was higher (Plt;0.001). There was no difference of the concentrations of serum FIB between DVT group after treatment and normal control group (Pgt;0.05), but the concentrations of serum IL-6, IL-10, and CRP of patients in DVT group after treatment were higher than those in normal control group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Inflammatory factors may involve in DVT. Therein IL-6, CRP, and FIB play important roles in acute stage of DVT, and IL-10 may have an anti-inflammatory effect.
Objective To investigate the correlated risk factors of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) after the laparoscopic surgery. Methods Clinical records of 16 patients with DVT and 148 patients without DVT after laparoscopic surgery in Huashan hospital from Mar.2007 to Jan.2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were several factors which could induce DVT after the laparoscopic surgery, including operation time ＞1 h 〔OR=4.15 （95% CI： 1.36-12.68）〕, operative site located in hypogastrium 〔OR=2.94 （95% CI： 1.07-8.08）〕 and the number of high risk factors ≥3 〔OR=3.94 （95% CI： 1.38-11.23）〕. Conclusions The long time of operation， hypogastric operation of laparoscopic surgery and high risk factors could induce DVT. Prevention measures should be made in preoperative period.
Objective This study aimed to observe the protective effects of 17β-estradiol (17β-E2) to the damage of phenobarbital (PB) upon the cognition of the newly-born rats. Methods Thirty healthy 3-day-old Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group (10 rats), PB group (10 rats) and PB+17β-E2 group (10 rats). The control group were injected saline water with a dose of 10 mL/(kg·d); the PB group were injected with PB of 10 mg/(kg·d); the PB+17β-E2 group were injected with PB 10 mg/(kg·d) and 17β-E2 300 ug/(kg·d). All the rats were intraperitoneal injected once a day after weighing, for three continuous days. They were normally raised to one month old and then 8 rats were selected out of each group respectively for water maze test. Results The PB group was reported to have increasing latent periods in finding the underwater stage compared with control group (P<0.05). In comparison with the PB group, the PB+17β-E2 group has a shorter latent period in finding the underwater stage, and furthermore statistically significantly fewer times in finding validation areas (P<0.05). During the 120s test, the stage quadrant journey to total journey ratio of PB+17β-E2 group was lower than the ratio of PB groups, but no statistics significance had been detected. The PB+17β-E2 group exhibits no significance difference from the control group in the above-mentioned indexes. Conclusions Even a short-term injection of PB with an usual clinical dose will bring a long-term damage to an immature brain in terms of the learning ability and memory, whereas the 17β-E2 may play a protective role in this course.
ObjectiveTo investigate the technique of optimizing the location of femoral attachment in medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction assisted with arthroscopy and evaluate the effectiveness.MethodsBetween January 2014 and September 2018, 35 patients with patellar dislocation were admitted. There were 14 males and 21 females with an average age of 22.6 years (range, 16-38 years). All patients had a history of knee sprain. The disease duration ranged from 1 to 7 days (mean, 2.8 days). Patellar dislocation occurred 2-4 times (mean, 2.5 times). The preoperative Lysholm score and Kujala score were 47.60±11.24 and 48.37±9.79, respectively. The patellar congruence angle was (31.40±6.81)°, the patellar tilt angle was (29.95±5.44)°, the lateral patellofemoral angle was (−11.46±5.18)°, and the tibial tubercle-trochlear groove distance was (16.66±1.28) mm. All patients were treated by MPFL reconstruction with the semitendinosus tendon under arthroscopy. During operation, the suture anchors were inserted into the midpoint and the 1/3 point of superomedial edge of the patella. Then, the femoral tunnels were created in medial femoral condyle through limited excision. For tendon fixation, the Kirschner wires were inserted into adductor tubercle, medial epicondyle of femur, and the midpoint between the two points, as well as the anteriorly and posteriorly. Afterwards, the changes of ligament length and tension, patellar tracking, and the relationship of patella and femoral trochlea were evaluated, thereby determining the optimized femoral attachment for MPFL reconstruction. Finally, the patellar congruence angle, patellar tilt angle, and lateral patellofemoral angle were measured by imaging to assess the relationship of patella and femoral trochlea. Moreover, Lysholm score and Kujala score were used to evaluate the knee joint function.ResultsAll incisions healed by first intention without infection. All patients were followed up 12-18 months (mean, 15.4 months). At 12 months, the Lysholm score was 94.40±3.99 and the Kujala score was 92.28±4.13, which were significant higher than those before operation (P<0.05). No patellar dislocation occurred during follow-up. At 12 months, the patellar congruence angle was (6.57±4.59)°, the patellar tilt angle was (9.73±2.82)°, the lateral patellofemoral angle was (7.14±4.63)°, which were superior to those before operation (P<0.05).ConclusionDuring the MPFL reconstruction under arthroscopy, a higher positioning accuracy for the femoral attachment and satisfactory effectiveness can be obtained by evaluating MPFL length and tension, patellofemoral joint kinematics, and patellar tracking.

Methods A total of 1 208 inhabitants and 112 medical personnel were selected by systematic sampling. The questionnaire included social-demographic data, knowledge of cerebral apoplexy risk and warning signs and influencing factors, the sources and requirement of information about cerebral apoplexy. Results Hypertension was a risk factor in 90.1% of residents and 100.0% of medical personnel. Age, diabetes and smoking were identified as the risk factor in 65.0% of medical personnel and 85.0% of residents. Medical therapy of risk factors was insufficient. The most common warning signs of cerebral apoplexy was hemiplegia, the following were vertigo, ataxia, headache, aphasia and double vision. Stepwise multiple regression analyses showed that residents who had higher educational background, spousal, workers and community worker with higher educational background had higher knowledge scores of cerebral apoplexy. The main sources of information about cerebral apoplexy were television, doctors, newspaper, magazine and network. Conclusions At present, the urban community residents in west China are lacking in knowledge about cerebral apoplexy. Going forward, targeted educational residents and medical workers should be directed at those who was highly educated, living alone, and retired. It is also provide a theoretical basis for establishing a prehospital identification and transfer treatment system based on community in developing countries.
Objective To analyze the changes of gene expression profiles during the process that human bonemarrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) are induced to differentiate into cardiomyogenic cells with 5-azacytidine (5-aza). Methods hBMSCs were isolated from marrow of obsolete ribs and induced with 5-aza. Then immunocytochemicalstaining was used to detect the expressions of α-actin, cardiac troponin T (cTnT), and connexin 43, and the percentage ofcTnT positive cells was tested with flow cytometry. In the process of differentiation, variation of gene expression was screenedwith Genechi ps Operating System of human gene expression profiles. And the differentially expressed genes were functionallyanalyzed and hierarchical clustered. Results When BMSCs were induced in vitro with 5-aza, part of the cells turnedinto myogenic cells morphologically. Before induction, immunocytochemical staining for α-actin and cTnT showed sl ightpositive and for connexin 43 showed negative. While after 3 weeks of induction, immunocytochemical staining for α-actin,cTnT, and connexin 43 showed all positive. With flow cytometry, the percentage of cTnT positive cells was 7.43% ± 0.02%before induction, but it was 49.64% ± 0.05% after induction. During differentiation, 1 814 differentially expressed geneswere reported by gene chi ps. Of them, 647 genes were divided into 5 groups with hierarchical clustering. They had variousbiological functions, involving signal transduction, cell metabol ism, prol iferation, differentiation, development, andtopogenesis. Conclusion hBMSCs can differentiate into cardiomyogenic cells with the induction of 5-aza in vitro. Multi plegenes related with signal transduction, transcri ption, and growth factors are involved during this process.
Objective To observe and study the effect of neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX) on pain and physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Methods From December 2016 to December 2017, a total of 70 participants with degenerative KOA were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group, with 35 participants in each group. The participants in the observation group received 8-weeks NEMEX, and the ones in the control group received 8-week quadriceps strengthening. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain subscale and the WOMAC physical functional subscale were used to measure pain and physical function before treatment and after 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks of treatment. Results The WOMAC pain scores of participants before treatment and after 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks of treatment were 24.2±10.0, 23.4±9.1, 18.9±8.2, 15.0±6.3, 15.0±7.0, respectively in the observation group, and 25.6±9.8, 24.1±9.2, 20.2±8.8, 15.2±6.0, 11.4±5.3, respectively in the control group. After 1 week of treatment, neither group showed a significant change in pain than pretreatment (P>0.05), but after 2, 4, 8 weeks of treatment, both groups showed significant improvements in pain (P<0.05). There was no significant between-group difference in pain before treatment or after 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks of treatment (P>0.05), but after 8 weeks of treatment, statistically significant difference in WOMAC pain score was found between the two groups (t=2.439, P<0.05). The WOMAC physical function scores of participants before treatment and after 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks of treatment were 94.3±31.0, 81.8±28.3, 68.9±22.1, 34.0±15.1, 22.0±8.0, respectively in the observation group, and 92.7±31.8, 82.6±29.3, 75.2±22.9, 52.2±20.0, 43.4±18.2 respectively in the control group. After 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks of treatment, both groups showed significant changes in WOMAC physical function scores than pretreatment (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant between-group difference before treatment or after 1, 2 weeks of treatment in physical function (P>0.05). The functional improvements in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (t=–4.287, –6.355; P<0.05). Conclusion NEMEX and quadriceps strengthening have similar effects in relieve pain in patients with KOA. And both exercises can effectively improve the physical function, and NEMEX is better than quadriceps strengthening on physical function improvement in patients with KOA.
ObjectiveTo detect expressions of cell programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and adenosine 2a receptor (A2aR) proteins in colorectal cancer tissues and investigate its relationship with clinicopathologic features of patients with colorectal cancer.MethodsThe colorectal cancer tissues and corresponding paracancerous tissues of 106 patients with colorectal cancer were collected, the patients underwent surgery in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from August 2013 to August 2015. The immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expressions of A2aR and PD-L1 proteins.ResultsThe positive rates of A2aR and PD-L1 protein expression in the colorectal cancer tissues were significantly higher than those in the corresponding paracancerous tissues, respectively [A2aR: 74 (69.8%) versus 35 (33.0%), χ2=28.721, P<0.001; PD-L1: 57 (53.8%) versus 28 (26.4%), χ2=16.516, P<0.001], which in the colorectal cancer tissues were correlated with the Broders grading (A2aR: χ2=9.198, P=0.010; PD-L1: χ2=8.354, P=0.015), T staging (A2aR: χ2=6.737, P=0.009; PD-L1: χ2=6.437, P=0.011), and TNM staging (A2aR: χ2=4.884, P=0.027; PD-L1: χ2=8.246, P=0.004) and were not correlated with the gender, age, tumor portion, lymph node metastasis and CA19-9 (P>0.05), but the positive rates of A2aR protein expression were correlated with the tumor diameter (χ2=4.386, P=0.036) and CEA positive (χ2=6.315, P=0.012), and the positive rates of PD-L1 protein expression were not correlated with them (P>0.05). The expression of PD-L1 protein was positively correlated with the expression of A2aR in the colorectal cancer tissues (rs=0.237, P=0.027).ConclusionPD-L1 and A2aR protein expressions are higher in colorectal cancer tissues, it is provided that both of them might play an important role in promoting occurrence and development of colorectal cancer.
