Résumé
Objective:To assess the clinical outcomes of hip arthroscopy in patients with concurrent femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and subspine impingement (SSI).Methods:Data were retrospectively reviewed for patients with both FAI and SSI who underwent hip arthroscopy surgery from August 2021 to May 2022. A total of 23 patients (23 hips) followed up for more than 1 year, including 10 males and 13 females, 9 left hips and 14 right hips, with an average age of 31.3±4.6 years (range, 25-45 years). Subspine decompression by anterior inferior spine (AIIS) shaping for SSI was performed during hip arthroscopy in addition to labral repair and bony correction for FAI in the patients with concurrent FAI and SSI. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using preoperative and 1-year postoperative measures: lateral center-edge (LCE) angle, α angle on 45° Dunn view X-rays, maximum hip flexion angle, hip flexion and knee extension strength, visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, modified Harris Hip Scores (mHHS), and International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12).Results:Of the 23 patients, 20 had type 2 AIIS and 3 had type 3 AIIS. At 1-year follow-up after surgery, there were significant improvements: LCE angle decreased (33.3°±6.1° to 31.7°±4.1°, t=1.076, P=0.288), α angle reduced (63.7°±8.5° to 50.0°±6.6°, t=6.116, P<0.001), hip flexion angle increased (107.4°±6.0° to 120.2°±4.4°, t=8.269, P<0.001), VAS scores decreased (4.0±1.1 to 1.0±1.1, t=9.591, P<0.001), mHHS improved (62.6±4.9 to 87.5±8.1, t=12.700, P<0.001), and iHOT-12 scores rose (51.4±4.9 to 75.7±7.7, t=12.593, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the strength of hip flexion and knee extension between preoperative and follow-up ( t=0.930, P=0.357 and t=0.050, P=0.960, respectively). There were no reports of traction-related complications (such as skin necrosis and nerve paralysis), severe adverse events (such as femoral neck fractures, deep vein thrombosis in the lower limbs, intra-articular infections, ectopic ossification and hip instability), or the need for revision surgery. Conclusion:Subspine decompression by anterior inferior spine (AIIS) shaping for SSI during conventional hip arthroscopy is safe and effective, enhancing hip function and alleviating pain at 1-year follow-up without significant complications.

Objective:To investigate the medium to long-term clinical outcomes of arthroscopic treatment for femoral acetabular impingement (FAI) without capsular closure.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 62 patients (63 hips) with FAI who underwent hip arthroscopy in Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from February 2015 to June 2018. There were 29 male patients (30 hips) and 33 female patients (33 hips) with an average age of 43.08±8.88 years. Thirty-two surgeries were performed on the left hip, thirty-one on the right, and one patient underwent bilateral surgery. All 62 patients underwent arthroscopic surgery without capsular closure. The preoperative and postoperative final follow-up assessments included the hip outcome score-activity of daily living scale (HOS-ADL), hip outcome score-sport specific subscale (HOS-SSS), Harris hip score (HHS), University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) score, Non arthritic hip score (NAHS), visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, and observation of complications.Results:All the patients completed the operation successfully, and the surgical incisions healed well. No complications such as wound infection, local incisional hematoma, local skin redness, lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury, or perineal crush injury occurred in any one case. All 62 patients were followed up for 71 (60, 100) months. The VAS before surgery was 6 (0, 10) points and 1 (0, 6) point at the last follow-up, with statistical significance ( Z=-6.81, P<0.001). Preoperative scores were as follows: HOS-ADL: 78.03±5.30; HOS-SSS: 59.88±12.51; HHS: 78.98±7.50; UCLA: 2.00 (2.00, 5.00); NAHS: 83.75 (81.25, 97.50). Postoperative final follow-up scores were as follows: HOS-ADL: 94.77±4.79; HOS-SSS: 79.89±9.07; HHS: 90.75±5.59; UCLA: 4.00 (3.00, 6.00); NAHS: 92.50 (88.75, 98.75). At the final follow-up, HOS-ADL ( t=19.10, P<0.001), HOS-SSS ( t=12.29, P<0.001), HHS ( t=11.21, P<0.001), UCLA ( Z=-6.92, P<0.001), and NAHS ( Z=-6.52, P<0.001) showed significant improvement. Until the end of the follow-up period, no patients underwent revision surgery or hip arthroplasty on the treated hip. Conclusion:For patients with FAI without developmental dysplasia of the hip and generalized ligament laxity, arthroscopic treatment without capsular closure yields favorable medium to long-term clinical outcomes.
Résumé
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a common sports injury that has a significant impact on knee function and patients′ mobility. With the popularity of national fitness campaign in China, the incidence of ACL injury is increasing year by year. Currently, there still lacks clinical standards or guidelines on how to choose appropriate treatment methods, surgical plans and rehabilitation protocols for ACL injury. In order to timely reflect the new treatment concept of ACL injury, standardize its diagnosis and treatment and improve the curative effect, the Sports Medicine Society of Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized domestic orthopedic and sports medicine experts to formulate the "clinical evidence-based guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of anterior cruciate ligament injury (2022 version)" based on the level of evidence-based medicine and in compliance with the principle of scientificity, practicability and advancement. The present guideline includes 12 recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of ACL injury in order to provide guidance and assistance for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of ACL injury in China.
Résumé
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a common cause of hip pain and limited range of motion among young and middle-aged active adults and athletes. The acetabular labral tear and cartilage damage secondary to FAI may increase the risk of hip osteoarthritis. FAI is characterized by pathologic impact between the femoral headneck junction and the acetabular rim secondary to bony deformity. According to the pathological anatomy leading to impingement, the FAI can be divided into the femoral cam-type deformity (Cam), the acetabular over-coverage deformity (Pincer) and a combination of both. In recent years, arthroscopic osteoplasty of the femoral head-neck junction is the main way to treat the Cam deformity; However, there still remain some controversies about how to perform an adequate and effective arthroscopic femoroplasty. Based on this problem, the present article reviewed the preoperative diagnosis, intraoperative evaluation, surgical techniques and postoperative evaluation of Cam-type FAI to explore how to adequately correct Cam deformity under arthroscopy. In the present study, a total of 1928 related articles were obtained by searching PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane library, China Knowledge Network, Wanfang Full-text Database and Weipu Science and Technology Journal Database. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 43 papers were finally included. After summarizing the above literatures, it was found that anatomical structures such as Cam deformity, femoral neck anteversion, and acetabular coverage can be evaluated preoperatively by X-ray, three-dimensional CT and MRI. X-ray fluoroscopy and arthroscopic dynamic examination are performed during the femoroplasty to locate the Cam deformity and to determine whether the femoral neck offset radio and the spherical structure of femoral head are corrected, at the same time, it is necessary to consider the overall anatomy of the hip joint to achieve an adequate resection of the Cam deformity and restore the normal mobility of the hip joint.

Objectives To understand the effect of intraperitoneal injection of naringenin,a SMAD3 inhibitor,on the skeletal muscle after acute contusion in a mouse model.Methods Seventy-two mice of 7-8 weeks old (20-24 g)were randomly divided into a control group,an acute contusion (B)group,an acute contusion+1%DMSO injection (C)group and an acute contusion+naringenin injection (D)group,each of 18.The acute contusion model was created by hitting the right tibialis anterior muscle in mice of all groups except the control group.Intraperitoneal injection of I%DMSO and naringenin were given to group C and D respectively every day until execution,while the 18 mice in the control group were fed without injury or injection.The time of injury was set as Day 0.After being fed for 28 days,all mice were executed and the right tibialis anterior was harvested.Western blotting was used to detect the difference of SMAD3,pSMAD3,Collagen Ⅰ,and α-SMA expression among the 3 groups.Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE)staining and Masson staining were used to detect the difference of pathological changes.Moreover,the appearance of fast twitch contraction and tetanic contraction were also documented to figure out the quality of the injured skeletal muscle.Results Compared with the control group,the SMAD3 and pSMAD3 level in injured skeletal muscle increased,but both were less in group D than group B and C.Similarly,the average level of Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA in all three injury groups was higher than the control group,but the level of these indexes were lower in group D than that in group B and C.HE staining showed more mesenchyme in injury groups than the control group.Masson staining found the upregulation of fibrosis in injured muscles,with the area of fibrosis in group D significantly lower than group B and C.Compared with control,the injured skeletal muscle had significantly poorer fast twitch and tetanic contraction performance,with the condition of group D significantly better than group B and C.Conculsion The naringenin,a SMAD3 inhibitor,mitigates the phosphorylation of SMAD3 after acute contusion in a mouse model.The fibrosis and scar formation was alleviated,hence improving the healing of the injured skeletal muscles.
Résumé
Arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs are preformed due to growing knowledge of rotator cuff tears among surgeons as well as patients.However,it is unavoidable and may sometimes very common that some patients develop structural failures or retears after surgical repairs because of unique blood supply and healing procedure of the rotator cuff,on which there is still much debate focusing on problems that one needs to deal with in clinical practice.Retears often occur,if without new trauma,during early postoperative period,or more specifically within the first 6 months after repair and are more frequently observed in those with old ages,diabetes or osteoporosis.In addition,risk factors of retears consist of longer preoperative duration of symptoms,larger primitive tear sizes,higher grades of fatty infiltration of muscles on preoperative imaging examinations,excessive tension within reconstructed structures,deteriorated quality of rotator cuff tissues and special shapes of the acromion,etc.Diagnosis is recently based on results of postoperative magnetic resonance imaging or echogram examination.MR/CT arthrography is also used.Each instrument has its advantages and limitations.However,the lack of a golden standard when establishing a diagnosis of rotator cuff retears makes integrating evaluations and comparisons of different methods a difficult question.It has been reported by many that the onset of retear leads to obvious shoulder pain or weakness,whereas more than a few studies demonstrated that very limited influences of retears in spite of generally unaffected shoulder functions,like decreased muscle strength on certain motions.The disagreement is possibly caused by specific methods of diagnosis,function instruments and time point of assessments used by different researchers as studies have displayed that feelings of patients after surgery and results attained by objective examinations are not always parallel.Moreover,some long-time follow-ups studies indicated that the impact posted by retears on shoulder functions evolves over a period of time.Owing to the varied opinions on actual symptoms and final functional outcomes caused by structural failure,the mainstay of treatment for rotator cuff tears are still conservative protocols,including observation and symptoms relief instead of second surgery.Second surgery could be an effective choice for certain patients,especially for those who have apparent symptoms.

Objective To compare the outcomes of arthroscopic single-row and suture-bridge repair of medium-sized rotator cuff tears through clinical and MRI assessment.Methods Forty-five patients with medium-sized rotator cuff tears who underwent arthroscopic repair using single-row (SR,n=29) or suture-bridge (SB,n=26) technique between July 2014 to June 2015 in our hospital,were retrospectively enrolled in this study.All surgeries were performed by the same senior doctor.The functional outcomes were assessed using the rating scale of the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA),American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons shoulder index (ASES),Fudan University Shoulder Score (FUSS),visual analog pain scale score (VAS),and range of motion (ROM) before the operation and at the last follow-up.MRI examination was performed at the final follow-up.Results Finally 50 patients were followed up successfully,24 in SB group and 26 in SR group.There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of age,sex,follow-up duration,and the affected side.Before the operation,no significant differences were observed between the 2 groups in all the measurements.After more than 1-year follow-up,significant improvement was found in all measurements for both groups,but without significant differences between them.MRI examination showed no re-tears in either group.According to the Sugaya's classification,there were more type Ⅰ patients in SB group than SR group (83.3% vs 61.5%),but the difference was not significant.Conclusion Arthroscopic suture-bridge repairing of medium-sized rotator cuff tears results in safe and good early clinical outcomes.However,compared with the single-row technique,there was no significant advantage.Although the MRI examination showed a better result of rotator cuff healing in the early stage,its long-term outcomes need further studying.

Résumé
We report here a novel membrane transfer-based DNA detection method, in which alkaline phosphatase labeled gold nanoparticle (AuNP) probes were used as a means to amplify the detection signal. In this method, the capture probe P1, complimentary to the 3' end of target DNA, was immobilized on the chip. The multi-component AuNP probes were prepared by co-coating AuNPs with the detecting probe P2, complimentary to the 5' end of target DNA, and two biotin-labeled signal probes (T10 and T40) with different lengths. In the presence of target DNA, DNA hybridization led to the attachment of AuNPs on the chip surface where specific DNA sequences were located in a "sandwich" format. Alkaline phosphatase was then introduced to the surface via biotine-streptavidin interaction. By using BCIP/NBT alkaline phosphatase color development kit, a colorimetric DNA detection was achieved through membrane transfer. The signal on the membrane was then detected by the naked eye or an ordinary optical scanner. The method provided a detection of limit of 1 pmol/L for synthesized target DNA and 0.23 pmol/L for PCR products of Mycobacterium tuberculosis 16S rDNA when the ratio of probes used was 9:1:1 (T10:T40:P2). The method described here has many desirable advantages including high sensitivity, simple operation, and no need of sophisticated equipment. The method can be potentially used for reliable biosensings.

Objective To explore the role of transforming growth factor (TFG) -β and matrix metalloproteinases( MMPs) in the development of frozen shoulder. Methods Twenty-four patients who underwent shoulder arthroscopy were included, and were divided into frozen shoulder group (n = 12) and control group ( n = 12; n = 2 for shoulder instability, n = 5 for rotator cuff tear and n = 5 for subacromial impingement) . Joint capsule tissues at the rotator cuff interval were obtained, and the expression of TGF-β, MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9 and MMP-12 mRNA and protein was detected by Real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Results The expression of TGF-p mRNA in frozen shoulder group and control group was 3.36 × 10~4 ±2.18 × 10~3 and 1.85 × 10~4 ±3.31×10~3, respectively, the expression of TGF-p protein was 1.55 ± 0.33 and 1.13 ±0.21, respectively, and there were significant differences between these two groups (P < 0.05). The expression of MMP1, MMP2, MMP3, MMP9 and MMP12 mRNA and protein in frozen shoulder group was significantly higher than that in control group(P <0.05) . Conclusion The higher expression of TGF-β and MMPs in joint capsule of frozen shoulder may be associated with the development of frozen shoulder.

Objective:To investigate the reversing effect of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors, LY294002(LY) and wortmannin (Wort), on the drug resistance of mitoxantrone (MIT)-resistant human breast cancer MCF-7/MIT cells. Methods:Drug-resistant MCF-7/MIT cells were treated with LY or Wort combined with MIT. Cell viability and proliferation were measured using the MTT assay and morphological changes were recorded by microscopy. Intracellular accumulation of MIT in MCF-7/MIT cells was detected by flow cytometry. Mitochondrial membrane potential was determined by rhodamine 123 staining. Cell cycle was examined by propidium iodide staining. Results:LY significantly enhanced the cytotoxicity of MIT to MCF-7/MIT cells. In LY and MIT cotreated cells, the percentage of cells arrested at S and G2/M phases and the mitochondrial membrane potential decreased significantly compared with single LY- or MIT-treated cells. The mechanism was related with increased accumulation of MIT in MCF-7/MIT cells induced by LY. While Wort, another PI3K inhibitor, did not significantly enhance the cytotoxic effects of MIT.Conclusion: The PI3K inhibitor significantly enhances the sensitivity of MCF-7/MIT cells to MIT.

Methods 24 cases of ACL partial tears confirmed by arthroscopy including anteromedial band (AMB) tear in 7 cases and posterolateral bulk (PLB) tear in 17 cases were investigated, from Mar 2000 to Jun 2002. ACL reconstruction was performed in 16 cases under arthroscopy. Clinical findings including symptoms or signs, physical examinations and MRI were collected for differential diagnosis of AMB and PLB tear. The efficiency of ACL reconstruction was evaluated by Lysholm scale with average follow-up of 11 months. Results 28.5% AMB and 98.2% PLB tear cases showed knee instability. Regarding the results of anterior drawer test, Lachman test and pivot shift test, it is positive 71.4%, 14.3% and 0 in AMB tears respectively; and 17.6%, 98.2%, 76.5% in PLB tears. The Lysholm scores were significantly increased from preoperative 63.53?8.11 to postoperative 93.47?2.62(P
