Cardiac cell was cultured in low (5%) and normal (20%) bovine serum medium with or without molybdenum (Mo) supplementation (0.7ppm). Spontaneous contraction of the cultured cells was examined periodically. It was observed that the spontaneous contraction of the cardiac cells cultured in the low serum medium was better than that in the same medium without Mo and the frequency of the contraction was almost near the one cultured in normal serum medium. Some strengthen effect of Mo on the contraction was also seen in cardiac cell cultured in the normal serum medium with Mo.It suggested that Mo was necessitated in the contraction of cardiac cell and might be involved with the pathogenesis of certain cardiac diseases and Keshan disease and with their prophylaxis and treatment as well.

Objective To explore the surgical treatment of ankle fractures and observe the postoperative rehabilitation. Methods Of 120 cases (68 males and 52 females, age range 18-72 years, average 26.8 years), there were 55 cases with injury on the left ankle and 65 on the right. Eight cases had only medial malleolus fracture, 21 pure lateral malleolus fracture, 58 bimalleolar fracture and 33 trimalleolar fracture.According to Danis-weber's classification, there were eight cases belonging to type A, 78 type B and 34 type C. The lag cancellous screw and tension band were used for medial malleolus and the pure titanic plate and screw for lateral malleolus fractures. The compression screw for 4.5 mm was inserted from anterior part to fixate the posterior malleolus fractures with defects bigger than 1/4 of the joint surface. The criterion was anatomic reduction under naked eyes. Postoperative function exercise was performed with no plaster for external fixation. Results A followed up for 6-12 months showed that 113 cases (94.2%) could walk as normal, 7 (5.8%) felt ache at the culf and uncomfortable at the ankle when walking and 116 satisfied with the results with satisfaction rate of 96.7%. Conclusions Exact reduction,stable internal fixation and active postoperative rehabilitation can help the joint recover to normal function in most cases with ankle fractures.

Objective To evaluate the treatment method and clinical outcome of the aged distal radius fractures. Methods 171 cases with fractures of distal radius from January 1999 to March 2004 were analysed. There were 31 males and 140 females(mean age, 67.3 years; range, 60-76 years). The fractures were classified according to the AO classification of distal radial fracture: 7 B1, 12 B2, 8 B3, 27 C1, 22 C2 and 19 C3. The operation group included 95 patients, 19 males and 76 females(mean age, 69.1 years; range, 60-76 years). 45 were on the left side and 50 on the right side. The non-operation group included 76 patients, 12 males and 64 females(mean age, 65.1 years; range, 60-69 years). 34 were on the left side and 42 on the right side. The fractures type were the following: 35 A2, 24 A3, 5 B1, 4 B2, 3 B3, 2 C1, 1 C2 and 2 C3. For the type A fractures, the priority of treatment was the close reduction and plaster immobilization; for the type B and C1 fractures, it was the open reduction and "T" titanium plate fixation when the close manipulation failed; for the type C2 and C3 fractures, the "T" titanium plate fixation would take the precedence of other methods; and when the fractures were closed to the joints, the external fixator would take the place of plate. Furthermore, the locking compression plate could be selected for the severe osteoporosis. Results Only 22 cases of patients were followed-up in the non-operation group(mean 7 months; range, 4-22 months); but all of 95 operated patients were followed-up(mean 6.5 months; range, 3-20 months). The fractures all healed on X-ray. According to Aro's evaluation of the distal radial fracture, in the non-operation group, there were 11 excellent, 9 good, 1 fair and 2 poor, the good-excellent rate was 86.9%; while in the operation group there were 46 excellent, 40 good, 7 fair and 2 poor, the good-excellent rate was 90.6%. Conclusion The different methods of treatment should be used for distal radial fracture according to the patient types. In case of the fracture and deformity in the articular surface or severe comminuted fracture in the metaphysis of the distal radius, the operation is indicated; and the manipulation can be used in simple metaphysis fractures with a good bone quality.

Purpose:To study the effect of sodium selenate on the viability and proliferation of PC-3 cell, a kind of human prostate cancer cell. Methods:Sodium selenate was administered to PC-3 cells, and MTT assay and ~(3)H-TdR adulterated assay were used to estimate the viability and proliferation of cell. Results:① When cells were treated with Sodium selenate for 24 h, the optical density (A) of middle-dose group decreased significantly, and the A of the high-dose group decreased dramatically. When cells were treated for 24 h, the A of the low-dose group was significantly lower than that of the control group, while the A of the middle-dose and high-dose groups was much lower than control.② When cells were treated for 24 h, the proliferation of middle-dose group decreased, and that of high-dose group decreased markedly. Conclusions:Sodium selenate can inhibit the viability and proliferation of PC-3 cells, and these actions occur in a dose-dependant manner.

Objective To investigate the effects of artificial semi-shoulder joint replacement for humerus proximal fractures in the aged patients. Methods From January 2004 to February 2007, 42 elderly patients who had been diagnosed as three or four-part fractures of proximal humerus received humeral head replacement. The rotor cuffs were repaired during operation, and the lesser tuberosity and greater tuberosity were reconstructed. Early functional exercise was carried out according to the Neer rehabilitation principles. Results All the patients were followed up for 10 to 28 (mean, 12.7) months postopera-tively. Their shoulder functions were assessed by the ASES (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon) score. Obvious pain relief was observed. Eleven cases were excellent, 24 good, 4 fair and 3 poor. The good-to-excellent rate was 83.3%. No prosthetic loosening was noted in this group, but upward shift of the shoulder prosthesis occurred in 3 cases, slight limitation of upward movement in 1 case and absorption of lesser or greater tuberosity in 4 cases. Conclusion Artificial semi-shoulder replacement can be applied for three or four-part fractures of proximal humerus in the aged patients.

Objective To analyze epidemiologie and injury characteristics of traffic injuries in Shenzhen through emergency department. Methods A questionnaire was pre-designed to collect data of patients admitted to six general emergency departments of six district in Shenzhen from January 2007 to December 2007 for clinical analysis. Results There were 1 328 patients with road traffic injuries, at age range of 2-84 years (average 31 years). According to occupation, most patients were local workers and migrant workers (57.8%). The accidental vehicles were mostly cars (48.5%). Most accidents (78.6%) occurred in urban streets. As for time distribution of traffic injuries, most injuries happened on Friday and Saturday (accounting for 17.8% and 18.7% respectively), especially on Friday (r = 0.166 0, P <0.01). There was central tendency around 15:35 p.m. in one day (r = 0.285 6, P < 0.01). The age of male was (32.36±8.70) years and that of female (29.96±4.32) years, with statis-tical differences (P < 0.05). Of patients followed up, 84.4% patients could work on their original jobs, 8.5% needed ehange of their jobs and 7.1% lost the ability of work. Conclusions It is neeessary to strengthen road safety education among local workers and migrant workers to improve their awareness of road safety. Traffic administrators and road safety marks should be added in the chief period and districts where road traffic injuries happen most frequently. Controlling the number of small cars may be effective to reduce traffic accidents.

ObjectiveSystematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and complications of olecranon osteotomy and bilateral approach through triceps brachii for the treatment of intercondylar humeral fractures. MethodsTo search the domestic and foreign literatures published from January 1980 to March 2008 about the treatment of intercondylar humeral fractures, which use olecranon osteotomy approach and bilateral ap-proach through triceps brachii. Systematically evaluate these literatures using the methods of systematic re-view provided by the Cochrane collaboration. ResultsAfter the screening and evaluation to the literatures, 33 published literatures that met the inclusive criteria of this study were collected. There were a total of 876 cases of patients whose follow-up data was integrity (olecranon osteotomy approach group for 509 cases;bilat-eral approach through triceps brachii group for 367 cases) and these cases had provided the postoperative scores of elbow joint function. The excellent and good rates of postoperative score of elbow joint function for the type C2 and C3 fracture patients in the olecranon osteotomy approach group were 82.32% and 79.38% respectively; while those in the bilateral approach through triceps brachii group were 70.59% and 64.71% respectively. The former was significantly higher than the latter. The excellent and good rate of the type C1 fracture patients between two approaches groups showed no statistical significant. Fourteen literatures provid-ed the data about postoperative complications, the incidence of complications of patients that received ole-cranon osteotomy approach was 4.72%(95%CI 4.70%-4.74%), and the results also showed that compared with bilateral approach through triceps brachii (8.17%, 95%CI 8.13%-8.21%). ConclusionTo treat inter-condylar humeral fractures, postoperative efficacy of olecranon osteotomy approach is better than that of the bilateral approach through triceps brachii. Using olecranon osteotomy approach can get adequate exposure, easy open reduction and internal fixation, quick recover and less complication.

Objective To study the feasibility of measuring radiation absorbed dose with the fluorescent probe Alexa Fluor 488-DNA-BHQ1.Methods An oligonucleotide dually labeled at its 5'-and 3'-end with fluorescent molecular Alexa Fluor 488 and specific fluorescence inhibitors BHQ1 was prepared.The Alexa Fluor 488-DNA-BHQ1 aqueous solution was exposed with X-ray and its fluorescence intensity was measured.Results When the concentration of Alexa Fluor 488-DNA-BHQ1 was between 0.5 and 1 μmol/L,the fluorescence intensity of its aqueous solution had excellent linear dose response from 0.1 to 30 Gy (R2 =0.99) and it was stably maintained after 40-80 min of irradiation especially at 4℃.Conclusions In the dose range of 0.1-30 Gy,the Alexa Fluor 488-DNA-BHQ1 fluorescent probe can be used to measure radiation absorbed dose.

Objective To study the effects of microRNAl01 (miR-101)on radiosensitization of human uterine cervix cancer HeLa cells and underlying mechanism.Methods HeLa cells were divided into three groups including blank control,miRNA negative control and miR-101 transfection group.The cells were irradiated by 160 kVp X-ray generated from a linear accelerator at a dose rate of 1.15 Gy/min.Real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of miR-101.The clonogenic survival assay was applied to evaluate the effect of miR-101 on radiosensitization of HeLa cells.γ-H2AX immunofluorescence and Western blot assays were performed to observe DNA double-strand breaks and the protein expressions of ATM and DNA-PKcs of HeLa cells,respectively.Results Compared with the negative control group,the expression of miR-101 was significantly increased in the HeLa cells at 48 h after transfection with miR-101 mimic,and the survival of HeLa cells over expression of miR-101 was significantly reduced(t =10.75,P ＜ 0.05).The miR-101 had remarkable radiosensitive effect on HeLa cells(F =7.72,P ＜0.05) with a SERD0 of 1.29.Moreover,over-expression of miR-101 could inhibit the repair of DNA damage induced by irradiation.Compared with the control group,the protein expressions of ATM and DNA-PKcs were significantly decreased in the HeLa cells over expression of miR-101.Conclusions Over-expressions of miR-101 could inhibit cell growth and enhance radiosensitivity of HeLa cells by inhibiting the repair of radiation-induced DNA damage.
