Objective To investigate the effect of finger exercises on recovery of hand function and daily life ability in postoperative patients with bone trauma. Methods Ninety-eight phalanx trauma patients were equally divided into the treatment and control groups, those with odd admission number in the treatment group and those with even numbers in the control group: the control group was given postoperative routine care and the treatment group took finger exercises besides the routine nursing. The two groups were compared in terms of the treatment effect and the ability of daily life . Result The effective rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group and the ability of daily life was significantly better than that of the control group (all P < 0.05). Conclusion The postoperative finger exercises of the patients with bone trauma can increase the recovery of hand function , which is beneficial for the improvement their daily life ability.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the value of taking surgical margin specimens during transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TURBT) in the diagnosis and treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

METHODSThe data of 356 patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer from June 2009 to January 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. A standardized protocol were performed during TURBT in 176 patients(surgical margin group), by taking surgical margin specimens from tumor base and 'normal'-appearing margin sites. The other 180 cases merely received general TURBT (general group). To observe the positive rate of surgical margin specimens and whether the diagnosis and treatment plan changed in the surgical margin group. Using Chi-square test to compare the recurrence and progression rates between surgical margin and general groups. To compare their recurrence-free survival time by Mann-Whitney U test. Results Of these 176 surgical margin specimens, the positive rate was 19. 3% (34/176),which consists of tumor base 11. 9% (21/176) and tumor normal-appearing margin 7. 4% (13/176). Following with urothelial carcinoma Ta stage in 1. 7% (3/176), T1 stage in 5. 7% (10/176), T2 stage in 8. 0% (14/176), carcinoma in situ (Tis) in 4. 0% (7/176). Among these 176 patients final diagnosis were changed in 10. 8% (19/176) patients due to the specimens results, and 18. 2% (32/176) patients altered their treatment plans. All 356 patients with a mean follow-up of 36. 8 months (6 to 60 months). Two groups of patients(surgical margin group vs. general group) recurrence rates respectively were 22. 2% (39/176) vs. 35. 6% (64/180), recurrence-free survival time were 33. 0 months vs. 23. 5 months and progression rates were 5. 7% (10/176) vs. 10. 6% (19/180). Compared with general group, patients who were taken additional surgical margin specimens showed significantly lower recurrence rate (χ2 = 7. 677, P = 0. 007) and longer recurrence-free survival time (U = 12 605,P = 0. 001). While the progression rate showed no statistical difference between them (χ2 = 2. 825, P = 0. 121).

CONCLUSIONTaking additional surgical margin specimens during transurethral resection of bladder tumor is helpful for pathological diagnosis and the planning of further treatment.

Objective To evaluate the physiological variables,which precisely and reliably reflected the effect of emergency fluid therapy for severely traumatized patients, in order to set up the ultimate criteria of optimal goal in fluid resuscitation. Method A total of 149 patients with severe trauma were given fluid resuscitation and were stratified into 3 groups with different severities of trauma as per ISS (injury severity score) and APACHE Ⅱ . Of all patients, heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), oxygen saturation of arterial blood (SaO2), blood gas analysis, arterial blood lactate (ABL), oxygen saturation of central venous blood (SCVO2) or oxygen saturation of mixed venous blood (SVC2), urine output, base excess (BE) and oxygenation index (OI = PaO2/FiO2) were measured and calculated. These variables were compared between groups to find out the significant differences and the relationship to response time to fluid therapy as well as complications and outcomes. Results Within 24 hours of fluid resuscitation, 127 patients reached the therapeutic goal in respect of systemic hemodynamics improved including the variables of SBP, HR and urine output, and the optimal goal of fluid therapy in 112 patients was estimated with cellular oxygen available found in the levels of ABL, BE and OI measured. These two sets of criteria (clinical signs vs laboratory findings) for determining the therapeutic goal showed significant difference in length of time taken for reaching the goal of treatment ( P < 0.05). There were significant differences in APACHE Ⅱ scores between those reaching the therapeutic goal within 24 hours and those taking longer time over 24 hours reaching the therapeutic goal or the death (P < 0.01). The duration of persistence in abnormal systemic hemody-namics and laboratory findings was longer in patients with complications or injured to death than that in survivors (P <0.05 -0.01). Conclusions In addition to the stability of vital signs, tissue perfusion and cellular oxy-genation should be taken as ultimate criteria of successful fluid resuscitation for severely traumatized patients judged by means of measuring the ABL, BE and OI variables.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the CCNE1 or RIP2, identified at a single nucleotide poly?morphism, and the risk, clinic stage and pathological grade of bladder cancer. Methods Peripheral venous blood samples were obtained from 176 patients with bladder cancer and 210 controls without cancer. DNA was extracted. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was used to detect CCNE1 (rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) polymorphism. According to the postoper?ative pathological results, patients with bladder cancer were determined the grading and staging. The genotype differences of medium gene and the distribution gene were analyzed and compared in bladder cancer group and control group. The relation?ship of CCNE1 (rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) genotypes and clinical data of patients with bladder cancer was analyzed, and the relationship of them with the genetic susceptibility to bladder cancer was also analyzed. Results The genotype dis?tribution was with good group representative in control group. The frequency of CCNE1(rs8102137) variant allele was signifi?cantly higher in bladder cancer group (40.91%) than that of control group (30.95%,OR=1.54,95%CI:1.02-2.45, P<0.05). The frequency of RIP2 (rs42490) variant allele was significantly higher in bladder cancer group (72.73%) than that of control group (62.38%, OR=1.61, 95%CI:1.04-2.48, P<0.05). There were no significant differences in gene polymorphisms of CC?NE1(rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) between different pathological grades and different clinical stages of bladder cancer. Conclusion The CCNE1 (rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) polymorphism have interaction in occurrence of bladder cancer process. There is higher risk of bladder cancer in individuals carrying mutant alleles than that of individuals carrying wild type.

Objective To investigate the effect of microbubble-enhanced non-focused ultrasound on liver uhrastructure during the treatment of hepatic trauma.Methods The model of hepatic trauma was established in 18 healthy New Zealand rabbits.The subjects were divided into trauma group,ultrasound group and ultrasound-microbubble group according to the random number table,with 6 rabbits each.Thicker region of the left hepatic lobe was treated by custom-made non-focused ultrasound for 5 min.Peak intensity (PI) was used to evaluate the blood reperfusion of the target region after treatment.Liver specimens were performed transmission electron microscope examination immediately and 24 h after treatment to analyze ultrastructure changes.Results PI ratio in ultrasound-microbubble group (15.1 ± 2.6) was significantly lower than that in trauma group (23.1 ± 1.1) and ultrasound group (23.4 ± 1.3) (P ＜ 0.05).But the difference between trauma and ultrasound groups was insignificant (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with trauma and ultrasound groups immediately after treatment,hepatic cells in ultrasoundmicrobubble group had obvious edema,sinusoids thinned,organelles arranged in disorder,mitochondrial edema was present,endothelia cells of interlobular hepatic artery,interlobular vein and bile canaliculi in the portal area damaged,and microvilli of bile canaliculi disappeared.Hepatic cells showed morphology of apoptosis 24 h after treatment.Conclusion Microbubble-enhanced non-focused ultrasound can be used to make rapid hemostasis by decreasing the blood perfusion,but it causes certain damage to the ultrastructure of hepatic cells and may induce apoptosis in the radiation zone and neighboring cells.

Objective: To compare two methods (microbial assay and radioimmunoassay) for measuring plasma folate concentrations, and to examine the relationship between plasma folate levels, and alcohol consumption, tobacco use and body mass index, and the risk of hyperhomocysteinemia in China. Methods: We used a microtiter plate microbial assay and a radioimmunoassay to measure the folate concentration in 88 plasma samples. After comparing the results of these two methods and fitting a regression line, we examined the geographical, seasonal, and gender differences in folate concentration of plasma collected from 2 422 adults in south and north areas in China, and evaluated the association of plasma folate concentration, with alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, and body mass index, and with the risk of hyperhomocysteinemia, using the data from the two assays. Results: The data from the two assays had a linear relationship ( r =0.879, P =0.000); the regression was Y =0.683 X +0.308 (where X and Y were nature logarithmic transformations of plasma folate by microbial assay and radioimmunoassay, respectively); however, the mean plasma folate levels by microbial assay were much higher than those obtained by radioimmunoassay. Both data sets showed similar plasma folate distributions among Chinese adults, associations with other risk factors, and the risk of hyperhomocysteinemia. We estimated that 19.9% of the Southerners and 67.1% of the Northerners had plasma folate concentrations by radioimmunoassay lower than the 6.8 nmol/L used to define plasma folate deficiency. Conclusion: There is a linear relationship between plasma folate levels determined by microbial assay and radioimmunoassay, but because of the different levels obtained in the two assays, it is difficult to use the microbial assay results to evaluate folate status at this time. The use of 10.5 nmol/L as a cut off for plasma folate deficiency by microbial assay needs further study.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that a single injection of smal-dose simvastatin can significantly improve bone microstructure and promote trabecular bone remodeling of the femoral condyle after osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of local single injection of simvastatin on the prognosis of mild-to-moderate unstable humeral fractures. METHODS:A total of 93 patients with mild-to-moderate unstable humeral fracture were selected and randomized into injection group (49 cases) and normal group (44 cases). The normal group received normal physical therapy, and the injection group underwent local single injection of simvastatin based on the physical therapy. Bone mineral density and healing time were compared between two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no difference in the bone mineral density between the two groups within 2 weeks after treatment (P>0.05), but the bone mineral density was significantly higher in the injection group than the normal group at 1-2 months after treatment (P<0.05). In addition, the injection group was superior to the normal group in the fol owing aspects:incidence of complications, excel ent-good rate of joint function recovery, and hospital stay. These findings indicate that the local injection of simvastatin based on conventional physical therapy can shorten the time of fracture healing, increase bone mineral density and improve the prognosis of patients with mild-to-moderate unstable proximal humeral fractures.

BACKGROUND:Open fracture of tibia and fibula is a common fracture of long bones. Simple external fixation is often difficult to achieve thorough and effective reduction and fixation. Shortcomings of open reduction and internal fixation highlighted in the high incidence of postoperative complications, and seriously affected the recovery of joint function. Therefore, external fixation combined with internal fixation for repair of open fractures of tibia and fibula has been extensively used in the clinic.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the repair efficacy of bilateral external fixation combined with limited internal fixation on open fractures of middle and distal tibia and fibula.
METHODS: Clinical data of 56 patients, who were identified by X-ray or CT examination and were diagnosed as having open fractures of middle and distal tibia and fibula in the Jining No.1 People’s Hospital, as the treatment group, were retrospectively analyzed from January 2009 to January 2013. Patients were subjected to thorough debridement, reduction of the fracture fragments, limited internal fixation and fixed bilateral external fixation within 8 hours. They received stage I suture. When the local conditions of the wound permitted, they received stage II grafting, and were repaired with adjacent muscle flap or free flap. The efficacy and postoperative complication were observed. Above data were compared with those of 44 patients with open fractures of middle and distal tibia and fibula who received reduction and internal fixation (control group).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Among the 56 patients in the treatment group, the outcomes were excelent in 35 cases, good in 16 cases, average in 4 cases and poor in 1 case. The excelent and good rate was 91%. Among the 44 patients in the control group, the outcomes were excelent in 23 cases, good in 10 cases, average in 7 cases and poor in 4 cases. The excelent and good rate was 75%. The excelent and good rate was significantly higher in the treatment group than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Significant differences in incision length, operation time, fracture healing time and bone nonunion rate were detected between the two groups, and above indexes were better in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). These findings verify that bilateral external fixation combined with limited internal fixation for open fractures of middle and distal tibia and fibula is reliable, can significantly reduce postoperative complications after internal fixation, promote the healing of fracture, and is conducive to the early recovery training of the affected limb.

Neonatal neutropenia is classified into early-onset and late-onset neutropenia. Causes of neutropenia include decreased production, increased destruction, margination in the microvascular endothelium, sequestration in the spleen, or a combination of mechanisms. Neutropenia often accompanied by an increased risk of bacterial infection, and sometimes it may be a hint of some rare severe diseases. In this article, we review advances in classification, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of neonatal neutropenia.
