[Objective]To study the effect of tibial diaphyseal lengthening on the longitudinal growth of the tibia.[Method]Rabbit models of tibial diaphyseal lengthening and tibial osteotomy were established.Standard radiography of the tibia was taken and the length of the tibia was measured.Histology of the proximal and distal tibia was made and the thickness of the growth plate was measured.[Result]Tibial osteotomy alone stimulated the longitudinal growth of the tibia and increased the thickness of the growth plate.However,tibial diaphyseal lengthening suppressed this stimulation resulting in natural longitudinal growth and normal thickness of the growth plate that matched the normal side.[Conclusion]Diaphyseal lengthening of tibia does not inhibit the longitudinal growth of the tibia.

Henoch Sch?nlein purpura( HSP) is a vasculitis of primary systemic vascular lesions of aller-gic diseases in children. Henoch Schonlein purpura nephritis( HSPN) is the most common allergic purpura sec-ondary renal disease,hematuria and(or)proteinuria of allergic in purpura the course(the most six months) can make diagnosis. The clinical manifestations varyies in severity,and the incidence has increased year by year,the incidence may be related to infections, allergies, immune abnormalities, immune damage and so on. So raising awareness of children nephritis,early diagnosis,early treatment has a great impact on the prognosis of children.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational drug use. METHODS:107 patients with drug-induced liver injury (DILI)admitted to liver disease department of our hospital during Jan. 2011 to Dec. 2015 were divided into TCM group and chemi-cal medicine group according to the type of medicine. DILI clinical characteristics,prognosis,medicine types of DILI were com-pared and analyzed between 2 groups. RESULTS:47 cases of DILI were induced by TCM,which mainly were health care and body beauty medicines(19.1%),rheumatism and arthritis medicines(14.9%)and dermatological medicines(10.6%). 60 cases of DILI were induced by chemical medicine,which mainly were antineoplastics(21.7%),antimicrobial(20.0%)and antituberculot-ics (11.7%). Gender,average age,the time from primary medication to disease attack and clinical classification were no signifi-cant difference between 2 groups(P>0.05). The clinical manifestations of the 2 groups were similar,except that fatigue was more common in the TCM group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The liver function indicators of TCM group as ALT,AST, TBIL and ALP were higher than those of chemical medicine group,while ALT and TBIL were significantly different between 2 groups(P<0.05). The liver injuries were more serious in the TCM group than in chemical medicine group,with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). After treatment,the prognosis and the prognosis of liver function indicator in 2 groups were not statistically sig-nificant(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Doctors and pharmacists should cooperate to master medication indication strictly,develop ADR monitoring and conduct blood concentration monitoring of high-risk DILI medicines,especially the hepatotoxicity of TCM so as to reduce the occurrence of DILI and guarantee the safety of clinical drug use.

The effect of molecular cytogenetics in pathogenesis of multiple myeloma (MM) is fundamental.The risk stratification system that based on molecular cytogenetics of MM is widely applicable in the prognosis of MM.The aberration of molecular cytogenetics is the most important marker of MM.At the same time,high-risk MM is associated with intra-clonal tumor heterogeneity and clonal evolution.The research of intra-clonal tumor heterogeneity and clonal evolution which based on the aberration of molecular cytogenetics will provide some additional information of the biology of MM and contribute to the optimum treatment for MM patients.

Objective To assess effects of the different retention time and temperature of the tumescent fluid on surgical blood loss in tumescent liposuction.Methods 20 patients with localized fat deposits received tumescent liposuction and the blood loss were calculated and compared between two treated groups.Results The mean surgical blood loss in 20 patients was (50.27± 18.56) ml with range (21.42-77.26) ml.The blood loss in liposuction with 0.5 hour retention and no retention of tumescent fluids was (19.89±7.52) ml and (26.25±12.07) ml,respectively; the blood loss in liposuction with heated (37℃) and non-heated tumescent fluid (23℃) was (28.60±6.07) ml and (29.93±9.06) ml,respectively.Conclusions A half hour retention of tumescent fluid in subcutaneous tissue after injection could reduce the surgical blood loss and the blood loss amount does not increase in the usage of a pre-heated tumescent fluid.

To Study Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) in the nasal cavity, raise the level of diagnosis and treatment for this disease. We reported a case with JXG and reviewed the literatures. JXG in nasal vestibule is ex tremely rare. Only three cases were reported before. After surgical removal,no recurrence was found over a 10-month follow-up. Clinical manifestations and imaging examination is nonspecific for JXG, and the diagnosis of the disease relies on pathological examination. Surgical resection is an effective treatment method.

[Objective]To explore the method and effect of elbow joint distraction arthroplasty in the treatment of post-traumatic elbow joint flexion contracture.[Method]An Ilizarov ring distractor of elbow joint was designed.From March 2003 to July 2005,three cases of elbow joint flexion contracture aged 16～17 years (one male and two females) with a flexion deformity of 70? in one case and 45? in two cases were treated.The joint distractor was applied with the wires in the upper limb and the joint hinge at the rotational centre of the elbow joint.No skin incision was made.To correct the deformity gradually,a continuous distraction force was applied by turning the nut on the distraction bar and periodic X-ray films were taken to confirm the position of the elbow joint.[Result]The elbow joint was finally extended to 0?～10?with an average 45?correction of flexion after an average 32 days of distraction.The range of elbow joint movement increased from pre-operative 75?to post-operative 115?.[Conclusion]The elbow joint distraction arthroplasty is effective in the correcting of the elbow joint flexion contracture and improving of joint function.
