5. Comparison of robot-assisted drilling decompression and traditional surgery for treatment of aseptic necrosis of femoral head
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2020;24(27):4317-4321
BACKGROUND: To delay the further aggravation of early femoral head necrosis, drilling decompression of the femoral head is a better treatment method. However, traditional trepanation and decompression of the femoral head is traumatic. OBJECTIVE: To compare the difference in the effect between robot-assisted drilling decompression and traditional surgery for aseptic necrosis of femoral head. METHODS: Forty patients with aseptic necrosis of the femoral head were included for retrospective comparative analysis. According to the treatment plan, they were divided into two groups. Eighteen cases (26 femoral heads) in the robot group were treated with drilling decompression assisted by robots. Among them, 13 cases (18 femoral heads) were in Ficat stage I and 5 cases (8 femoral heads) were in Ficat stage II. The traditional surgery group consisted of 22 patients (29 femoral heads). Among them, 15 patients (19 femoral heads) were in Ficat stage I and 7 patients (10 femoral heads) in Ficat stage II. Incision, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, intraoperative blood loss, times of intraoperative puncture and operation time were compared between the two groups. Harris score was used before and 1, 3, and 6 months after operation to evaluate the hip effect. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) All cases were followed up for 6 months. (2) Incision, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, intraoperative blood loss, times of intraoperative puncture and operation time were better in the robot group than in the traditional surgery group (P < 0.05). (3) Harris score was not significantly different 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery in the two groups (P > 0.05). (4) Compared with the traditional surgery, robot-assisted drilling decompression has no obvious advantage in the treatment of aseptic necrosis of the femoral head. However, its operation incision is small; the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy is small; the trauma is small; and the operation is safer and minimally invasive.
6. Research and application of antibacterial modification of hydroxyapatite
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2020;24(16):2606-2613
BACKGROUND: Hydroxyapatite has been widely used in the studies on bone materials due to its good histocompatibility and bone conductivity. But pure hydroxyapatite has no antibacterial properties. Therefore, the antibacterial modification of hydroxyapatite is of great importance.OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress of the antibacterial modification of hydroxyapatite. METHODS: A computer-based retrieval of Science Direct online, PubMed, and CNKI databases was performed for the articles published before 2019. The key words were “antibacterial mechanism, hydroxyapatite, silver, gold, copper, cobalt, chitosan, strontium, zinc, gallium, magnesium, selenium, titanium” in English and Chinese, respectively. The irrelevant, repeated and old articles were excluded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There are many ways to modify hydroxyapatite, but the main way is to add metal antibacterial particles. Silver, gold, copper, cobalt, chitosan, strontium, zinc, gallium, magnesium, selenium and titanium can be added into hydroxyapatite to make it have antibacterial activity. There are still some limitations in the research of antibacterial materials: the release curve of antibacterial Ions in hydroxyapatite has not been well regulated. There are few antibacterial materials, let alone used for implants in vivo. More nontoxic substances with good antibacterial properties need to be found. Due to the toxicity of antibacterial Ions, there is no uniform standard for the optimal concentration of each kind of antibacterial ion.

BACKGROUND: It is demonstrated that ropivacaine has less toxicity than bupivacaine, but bupivacaine has higher liposolubility and efficacy, so a less dose of bupivacaine is needed in clinical comparing with ropivacaine. Serious convulsion is usually followed by cardiotoxicity induced by local anesthetics. The ratio of medial lethal dose (CD50) and median convulsant doses (LD50) is usually used to assess the comparative safety of local anesthetics.OBJECTIVE: To establish CD50 and LD50 of 2% lidocaine, 0.75% bupivacaine and 0.75% ropivacaine for Kunming mice and select proper indicator for neurotoxicity, then to compare neurotoxicity of the three local anesthetics on central nervous system.DESIGN: Randomized and controlled study.SETTING: Department of Anesthesiology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: This study was carried out from July to December in 2002 in the Laboratory of Anesthesiology, Tongji Hospital, Tonji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Totally 310Kunming mice aged of 1-month with clean grade were enrolled in this study.METHODS: ① To determine the relation of dose of local anesthetics with conclusion rate and death rate in mice. Todetermine the dose-effect relationship for ropivacaine, 50 mice were selected and divided into 5 groups with 10rates in each group who received dose of 76.80, 68.69, 61.44,49.15, 31.46 mg/kg respectively. For bupivacaine, 90 mice were divided into 9 groups, with 10 rates in each group who received intraperitoneal dose of 50.00, 47.29, 44.72, 42.29, 40.00, 35.78, 32.00, 28.62, 25.60 mg/kg respectively. For lidocaine, 100 mice were divided into 10 groups,with10rates in each group who received dose of 183.11, 163.77, 146.48,131.02, 117.19, 93.75, 75.00, 60.00, 48.00, 38.40 mg/kg respectively. For each local anes thetic, the rates of convulsion or death were tried to distribute on both sides of 50% symmetrically. On the dose-response curve, 4or 5 well-spaced points were obtained for probit analysis to determine CD50 and LD50 of each agent. ② The effect of different dose of lidocaine on conclusion duration and c-fos expression in brain with different doses.Forty mice were divided into 4 groups with 10 rates in each group who received 0, 30%, 60% and 90% convulsant doses of lidocaine intraperitoneally. The duration of convulsion were recorded carefully for the convulsant mice that should be marked correctly for next procedure. Two hours later, the convulsant mice were anesthetized deeply and fixed by transcardiac perfusion for Immunohistochemistry to detect c-Fos expression. ③ Comparison of neurotoxicity induced by CD50 of three agents.Thirty mice were randomly divided into 3 groups with 10 rates in each group who received intraperitoneally CD50 of lidocaine, bupivacaine and ropivacaine respectively. The duration of convulsion and the number of neurons expressed with c-Fos in mice brain were compared among these three groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The response of mice to intraperitoneal local anesthestics, duration of convusion and c-Fos expression using immunohistochemistry methods.RESULTS: Date of totally 310 mice was entered into final results analysis. ① The relation of dose of local anesthetics and conclusion rate or death rate in mice. The therapeutic index (LD50/CD50) of 2% lidocaine,0.75% bupivacaine and 0.75% ropivacaine were 2.89, 1.48 and 1.34, respectively. ② c-Fos expression induced by lidocaine in mice brain: The cFos expression in mice brain was mainly distributed in three zones-thalamencephal, hypothalamus, amydyla and pyriform cortex. ③ Compare of the duration of convulsion and number of neurons with c-Fos expression induced by different dose oflidocaine. Compared with control group, the duration of convulsion and number of neurons with c-Fos expression in amydyla and pyriform cortex all increased significantly in CD30, CD60and CD90 group (P < 0.05). ④ Neurotoxicity induced by CD50 of lidoacaine, bupivacaine and ropivacasine The duration of convulsion and expression of c-fos in amydyla and pyriform cortex were significantly increased in ropivacaine group compared to bupivacaine or lidocaine group intraperitoneally (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the duration of convulsion and expression of c-Fos between lidocaine and bupivacaine group (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Compared with bupivacaine, ropivacaine produced less toxicity when identical dose was used in clinic. It is indicated that if an accidental convulsion induced by ropivacaine, it may be more severe than that induced by correspondent either lidocaine or bupivacaine. It may be the reason that ropivacaine have less lipid solubility, absorbed easily from this tissue compartment, and to get a high concentration in blood.

Effects of Sini decoctiou (SD ) on ischemic (anoxic ) electrocardiogram (ECG ) and possible action mechanism of SD were studied.Results indicate that SD significantly improves the pituitrin induced ischemic ECG of rabbits, significantly prevents S-T scgment from desconding and suppresses the elevation of T wave; SD can also lengthen significantly cardioe lectric activity time of anoxic mice. The protective cffects of SD on ischemic (anoxic ) myocardium may be related to the significant increase of myocardial nutritional blood flow induced by administrating SD.
