The aim of the study was to explore the relationship between the concentration of C-telopeptide fragments of type II collagen (CTX-II), Zn, and Ca in urine and knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Eighty-two patients with KOA and 20 healthy volunteers were enrolled. Anteroposterior and lateral position x-rays of knee joints were collected.

Methods: The rat models of 8 mm long-distance sciatic nerve defect were established and divided into three groups, with 6 rats in each group. In GDNF-Sch group, the defect was repaired by GDNF modified Schwann cells combined with collagen-chitosan nerve scaffold.

Objective: to compare the chondrogenic ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from different tissues in rabbits' full-thickness articular cartilage defects.
Methods: sixty New Zealand white rabbits of ordinary grade with a body weight of 2.5 approximately 3.
Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of the nervus cutaneus femoris posterior pedicle flap on repairing large soft tissue defects at the heel or inferior segment of the shank.
Methods: Totally 14 cases were followed up for 8-22 months (mean 15.5 months) to observe the clinical effects of nervus cutaneus femoris posterior pedicle flap on repairing large soft tissue defects of the heel or inferior segment of the shank.
Objective: To study the strategy of the treatment for dislocation of cervical vertebra.
Methods: The clinical data of 39 cases with dislocation of cervical vertebra were analyzed. Among them,29 were male and 10 were female.
