Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(39):7780-7784
OBJECTIVE: Aseptic prosthetic loosening is a primary problem of total hip arthroplasty. For this reason, several prosthesis interfaces with different characteristics have been studied, such as ceramic-on-ceramic prosthesis. The purpose of this study wasto investigate the mid- and short-term curative effects of ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty in treatment of avascularnecrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) and to evaluate its clinical application value.METHODS: A total of 23 patients (28 hips) with ANFH who received ceramic-on-ceramic non-cement hip prosthesis replacementwere followed up. All hip prostheses were BiCONTACT~((R)) ceramic-on-ceramic hip prostheses. Functional evaluation was assessedaccording to the Harris hip score. Radiographic analysis was performed using the Gruen's zonal method for the stem and the zonal classification of Delee-Charnley for the cup implants.RESULTS: All patients were followed up for an average of 28 months. The mean Harris hip scores ranged from 39.45 points prior to surgery to 88.57 points after surgery, with a difference which was significant (P < 0.05). Radiographically, no obvious prosthesis loosening or subsidence was observed. CONCLUSION: The ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty can produce good short-term curative effects in treatment of ANFH.Radiographic findings do not show obvious prosthesis loosening.
2.Recent Proceedings in Research of Tumor-associated Disorders of Glucose Metabolism
Journal of Sun Yat-sen University(Medical Sciences) 2017;38(2):222-228
Metabolic rearrangement is a typical hallmark of cancer cells ,especially the disorders in glucose metabolism. Normal cells rely on the steps of oxidative phosphorylation within the mitochondria to metabolize glucose and yield energy upon enough oxygen ,yet turning to glycolysis in the absence of oxygen . Nevertheless ,tumor cells exhibit high levels of glycolytic flux in different environments ,due to the requirement of malignant proliferation. This phenomenon was named as the Warburg effect ,the initiation of which is driven by multiple mechanisms ,including the influence of tumor microenvironment ,the activa?tion of tumor-promoting signaling pathways ,and the aberrant levels of metabolic enzymes. Moreover ,our recent findings sug?gest that inhibition of gluconeogenesis ,the general reversal of glycolysis ,would further promote the Warburg effect and tumor progression.
3.Evaluation of Brain Death by Using Transcranial Doppler
Chinese Journal of Trauma 1991;0(02):-
Transcranial doppler (TCD) was used to measure the flow velocities of middle cerebrial artery (MCA) in 4 patients of clinical brain death. The reaults showed that the changes were similar in all the patients studied; 1) the dierotic notch (DN) was deeper in the spectrum of flow velocities of MCA, end diastolic flow rate (VD) significantly decreased, and the pulastility index (PI) increased ; 2) VD decreased progressively; 3) all patients showed characteristic to-and-fro TCD pattren with antegrade flow in systole and retrograde flow in diastole; 4) the pattern totally disappeared when the patients were claimed dead. It is found that TCD is valuable for the determination of brain death.
4.Study on proliferation of HPBL and expression of CD2 mRNA
Chinese Journal of Immunology 1985;0(01):-
The effects of various stimuli on activation and proliferation of human peripheral blood lymphocytesHPBL)nd expression of CD2 mRNA were studied.The total RNA was extractedfrom the activatedHPBL and Northern blot ssay of these RNA samples were carried out with CD2 antisense RNAprobe prepared.It was shown that anti—CD3 Abs RW2-4B6 and RW2-8c8,PHA,and a calfthymic peptide preparation could all induce the activation and roliferation f HPBL and high levelexpression of CD2 mRNA.It was interresting to note that anti-CD3 McAb RW2-8c8 when usedtogether with antiT11_2 and anti-T11_3,inhibited the activation of HPBL and resulted in very low evelexpression of CD2 mRNA.The possible explaination of the phenomenon was discussed.

Objective To explore the impact of health education on negative mood,social support and life quality of patients with breast cancer.Methods 90 patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy were divided into the observation group and the control group randomly,and each group with 45.The regular health education was given to the control group,and personalized health education was provided to the observation group and their related family member,the measures included mental communication,psychological counseling and life guidance.SAS,SDS,SSRS and QOL were carried out at two time points:the time when admission to hospital and 4 weeks after admission.Results Before health education,there were no statistical significance between the observation group and the control group on anxiety,depression,social support and life quality.After health education,the observation group was better than the control group in scores of anxiety,depression,social support and life quality.Conclusions The health education given simultaneously to the patients and their family members can improve their negative mood,increase their social support,and improve their life quality.
6.Effects of heparin with local injection on the biomechanical properties of Achilles tendon system in rabbits
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2008;12(50):9982-9985
BACKGROUND: Achilles peritendinitis can change characteristics of mechanical and viscoelastic properties in Achilles tendon, especially the biomechanical properties of Achilles tendon after heparin local injection. OBJECTIVE: To examine the changes of mechanical and viscoelastic properties in Achilles tendon of overuse injuries and the effects of heparin on the mechanical and viscoelastic properties in Achilles tendon. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTIMG: Control animal specimen study was performed at the Biomechanical Laboratory of Sichuan Province Orthopaedic Hospital between March and December 2005. MATERIALS: Fifty Achilles tendon samples from Japanese White rabbits weighing (4.10±0.23) kg were used in this study. METHODS: Rabbits were divided into a control group (n=20), an exercise group (n=12) and a heparin treatment group (n= 18) at random. The rabbits were exercised for 3 weeks, simultaneously the heparin solution were injected into the peritendineum around the insertion of Achilles-calcaneus from the 4th week to the 6th week, twice a week. Then the cyclic stretching on the Achilles tendon was performed for 25 cycles and the tendon was stretched to the constant load to determine the stress relaxation vs, time. Finally the preparation was loaded to failure to measure the biomechanical characteristics of the tendon. MAIN OUTCOME MEARES: The cross-sectional area of the tendon, the cyclic creep lengths versus time, hysteresis loop, the stress relaxation versus time, the strength properties and the stress versus strain characteristics. RESULTS: The normalized area of hysteresis from exercise and heparin groups were significantly reduced in the most cycles, and the stress relaxation reduced more quickly in the exercise and heparin groups. The mean values for yield load and failure energy, yield energy, and yield stress, strain energies from the exercised preparations were higher than those of the controls. All of the mechanical properties from the heparin treated preparations were improved significantly. CONCLUSION: The results showed that the tensile strength and viscoelastic properties of tendon were improved by the management of heparin. It is indicated that the local injections of heparin at the location of peritendineum and tendon-bone insertions are beneficial to viscoelastic and tensile behaviors of the Achilles tendon system.
