OBJECTIVETo analyze rationality of internal fixation with original fixation in the second operation for femoral nonunion.

METHODSA retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 19 femoral nonunion patients treated by internal fixation with original fixation in the second operation since January 2009 to July 2014, including 14 males and 5 females with an average age of (43.63 ± 3.95) years old ranging from 18 and 75 years old. The original fixations involved plate fixation in 11 cases and interlocking intramedullary nail in 8 cases (including 3 cases of retrograde interlocking intramedullary nails). There were 13 cases of atrophic nonunion and 6 cases of hypertrophic nonunion in pathological classification. After second operation, the fracture healing time, Harris hip score and range of motion of the knee joint was recorded and compared with preoperative.

RESULTSAfter the second operatioin, all patients were followed up for 6 to 30 months with an average of (18.67 ± 7.59) months. All patients got fracture healing, and the fracture radiological healing time was from 7 to 29 months with an average of (15.78 ± 4.97) months. Harris hip scores were improved from preoperative 62.37 ± 19.48 to postoperative 87.42 ± 8.86. The range of motion of the knee joint was improved from preoperative (52.16 ± 20.10)° to postoperative (96.32 ± 22.10)°.

CONCLUSIONIt has a better clinical healing rate for using original fixation to treat femoral nonunions, and theoretically speaking it was rationality.

Objective To investigate the spherical diopter and astigmatism change of humans at sitting and supine position.De- sign Prospective case series.Participants 96 eyes of 52 patients (spherical diopter from-2.50 D to-10.00 D,astigmatism diopter from -0.75 D to-4.50 D) were selected.Methods The subjects were examined with NIKON portable retinomax at sitting and supine posi- tion,respectively.Main Outcome Measures The spherical diopter,cylinder diopter and axis change were analyzed statistically.Re- sults Spherical diopter at supine position (-5.31?3.43 D) was a little higher than that at sitting position (-5.27?3.24 D) statistically(P= 0.25),and cylinder diopter at sitting position (-2.27?1.24 D) and at supine position (-2.35?1.19 D) was no statistically difference (P= 0.20).The axis of astigmatism changed from-16?to +18?.Axis change was within 2?in 52.1% eyes,6?-10?in 5.2%,over 10?in 3.1%. The change of axis rotation tended to counter-clockwise in the right eye and clockwise in the left eye.Conclusions Eye rotation at sit- ting and supine position may cause the astigmatism axis change.It may be one of the main factors affecting the results of LASIK.

BACKGROUND: Human body is an irregular geometrical one, so it is very diffcult to measure its volume.OBJECTIVE: To establish multiple regression equations by taking body height and body mass as the independent variables and body volume as the dependent variable, calculate the body volume of female college students and select optimal regression equations.DESIGN: A single-sample univariate analysis.SETTING: Department of Physical Education of Lishui College, Department of Physical Education of Zhejiang University and Academy of police in Zhejiang. PARTICIPANTS: Eighteen female students aged 18-22 years were selected from Zhejiang Lishui College.METHODS: Both the body height and body mass indexes of the female students were measured with the nation-ratified constitutional test instrument, and the body volume index was measured with a self-made iron container with a diameter of 0.95 m and height of 1.20 m. There was a scale mark for height in the container, water was poured to a fixed height, then the student slowly immersed herself into the water completely and the height difference was recorded. Body volume (m3)=(0.95÷2)2×3.141 59×height difference. The measured data were statistically calculated. Regression equations were established by taking body height and body mass as the independent variables and body volume as the dependent variable,and the optimal regression equation was selected.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The measured data of body height,body mass and body volume of female students and the calculated results of the regression equations were observed.RESULTS: The measured data of body height, body mass and body volume of 18 female students all entered into the in result analysis ① A regression equation in two unknowns for calculating body volume was established: (y)=-0.031 016+0.000 761×body mass+0.000 267×body height. ②A regression equation in one unknown for body volume and its optimal selection: The linear equation was y=0.001×body mass+0.000 8; the logarithm equation was y=0.005 1Ln (body mass)-0.15; the power equation was (y)=0.001×body mass0.9909; the exponent equation was y =0.0192×e0.0188x.and the multiple correlation coefficient R2=0.9497-0.9591, all were close to 1, indicating that the body volume predicted by models was highly correlated with the actual one (r ＞ r0.001(18-2), P ＜ 0.001), the predicted values of the 4 models were not different from the actual one. ③ Analyzing from the simplicity of calculation and the economic way of index measurement, Logarithm equation is the best in the 5 regression equations. ④ The body volume covered body shape, physical function and Physique.CONCLUSION: The index of body volume is one of the important indexes, which cannot be neglected in the study of Physique. Analyzing from the simplicity of calculation and the economic way of index measurement, Logarithm equation is the best.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P (SP) on proliferation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Methods The rBMSCs were isolated using whole bone marrow adherence method. In the different periods of culturing (1, 2,and 3 weeks), expressions of the neuropeptide receptors were detected by Western Blot and reserve transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The BMSCs were treated with CGRP and SP at concentration 10-8 mol/L at different time (1,3,5,7,9 days), cell proliferation was detected with MTT assay, the protein expressions of cyclin D1 ,cyclin E and p53 were examined using Western Blot. Results The CGRP receptor and SP receptor were expressed in BMSCs. The expression of CGRP receptor was statistically higher than that of SP receptorat the same time point. The growth curves of BMSCs cultured by both neuropeptides had similar appearance. CGRP and SP stimulated the proliferation of BMSCs significantly at 9 days and 7 and 9 days. In this process, the expressions of cyclinDl and cyclinE were up-regulated by CGRP, SP only enhanced the expression of cyclinE; these effects all reached a peak at 5 days. The expression of p53 was down-regulated by both neuropeptides. Conclusion CGRP and SP had direct effects on the proliferation of BMSCs, the regulation of cell cycle proteins is one of the mechanisms.

Objective To compare the expression changes of neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptor Y1 in different stages of osteoblast differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs).Methods The rBMSCs were isolated in vitro from Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats using whole bone marrow adherence method and cultured. Then, the rBMSCs were divided into osteoblast-induced group and noninduced group. In different periods of culture at 1, 2 and 3 weeks, identification of the osteoblasts was performed by using immunocytochemistry and Western blot. Expressions of mRNA and protein of Y1 receptor were detected by real time reserve transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot. Results RT-PCR demonstrated that osteoblast-induced group had a lower expression of Y1 receptor than non-induced group at the same time point and the expression of Y1 receptor was increased in a time-dependent manner in both groups. Western blot demonstrated higher expression of Y1 receptor in osteoblast-induced group compared with non-induced group at the same time point and a decreased expression of Y1 receptor in a time-dependent manner in both groups. Conclusions During the process of osteoblastic differentiation of rat BMSCs, the expressions of mRNA and protein of NPY Y1 receptor show different trends, when NPY may mediate the inhibition of osteoblastic differentiation of BMSCs through Y1 receptor pathway.
