1.Clinical research progress on reconstruction after sacral tumor resection
Orthopedic Journal of China 2006;0(09):-
Tumors of the sacrum are rare.The valve of adjuvant is uncertain,and en bloc tumor resection remains the primary mode of treatment.But en bloc tumor resectiong often leads to unstability of the pelvic ring.Therefore,the most factor providing the successful outcome in the management of sacral tumor is how to establish stability in the lumbo-sacrai junction.The various spinopelvic reconstruction techniques are reported in the literature.This includes various methods triangular frame reconstruction,or lilac rod or iliac screw fixation,modified galveston,custom-made prosthesis and so on.The authors review the modes of reconstruction after sacral tumor resection and discuss the outcomes.

BACKGROUND:Studies have confirmed that the active ingredients ofPaeonia lactiflora Pal. have better inhibitory effects onCandida albicans, but its monomer paeoniflorin has not been reported whether it can inhibit Candida albicans biofilm. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of paeoniflorin onCandida albicans biofilm in vitro. METHODS:Paeoniflorin solution at different concentrations of 4, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25 g/L was prepared using RPMI-1640 according to 2-fold dilution method. Chlorhexidine was diluted with RPMI-1640 to different concentrations, including 2%, 1%, 0.5%, 0.25%, 0.125%. We compared the effects of different concentrations of chlorhexidine and paeoniflorin on diameter ofCandida albicans by agar diffusion method. MTT assay was used to detect the effect of different concentrations of chlorhexidine or paeoniflorin on the celladhesion of Candida albicans as wel as their inhibitory effects onCandida albicans biofilms. Confocal laser scanning microscope and LIVE/DEAD BacLight Bacterial Viability Kits were combined to observe the changes ofCandida albicans biofilms under normal or intervention conditions. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Both chlorhexidine and paeoniflorin possessed bacteriostatic ability, and their bacteriostatic ring diameters were positively correlated with drug concentrations. Significant differences in the bacteriostatic ring diameter were observed between chlorhexidine and paeoniflorin, except between 2 g/L paeoniflorin and 1%, 2% chlorhexidine. Paeoniflorin at different concentration could inhibit celladhesion of Candida albicans as wel as inhibitCandida albicans biofilm. The inhibition rate was also positively correlated with drug concentrations. Under normal conditions, most of bacteria in the biofilms were alive, and there was a smal amount of dead bacteria after 48 hours. After intervention with paeoniflorin, the proportion of dead bacteria in the biofilms was increasing along with the concentrations of paeoniflorin. Compared with the chlorhexidine, paeoniflorin showed a lower bacteriostatic activity. These findings indicate that paeoniflorin has an obvious inhibitory action in Candida albicans biofilms in vitro.

Objective To compare the clinical characteristics and antibiotics resistance of neonatal sepsis caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli in order to provide guidance for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Methods Forty-two newborns with Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis and 50 newborns with Escherichia coli sepsis in the neonatal intensive care unit of Yuying Children's Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College from January 2000 to October 2009 were enrolled into this study. The clinical data, laboratory examinations and prognosis of these newborns were retrospectively analyzed and compared. The antibiotic resistance data of different onset age of the two diseases were compared. Early-onset sepsis was defined as the age at the onset ≤3 days, and late-onset sepsis was defined as the age at the onset >3 days. Results (1) Comparison of clinical characteristics: Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis caused higher incidence of apnea or gasp compared with Escherichia coli sepsis (61.9% vs 6.0% ,x2= 17. 34, P<0. 05); the time of developing to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome or disseminated intravascular coagulation of the newborns with Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis [(40±28) h] was shorter than that of the newborns with Escherichia coli sepsis [(89±26) h] (t= -3.17, P<0.05); while the incidence of purulent meningitis of Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis was lower ( 4. 8% vs 30. 0 %, x2 = 9.65, P < 0. 05 ). ( 2 ) Comparison of non-specific laboratory examinations: compared with Escherichia coli sepsis, Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis caused higher incidence of the leucocyte count > 25 × 109/L (42. 9% vs 22.0%, x2 = 4. 60,P<0. 05), platelet count < 100 × 109/L (52.4% vs 18.0%, x2 = 12.07, P<0. 05) and C-reaction protein >8 mg/L (95.2% vs 76.0% ,x2 =6. 55, P<0. 05). (3) Comparison of results of antibiotic resistance: the resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae (81.8%00-100. 0%) to Cephalosporins was higher than that of Escherichia coli (17. 2%-63. 2%) (x2 =6.97-11.92, P<0. 05); the resistance rates of late-onset sepsis of Klebsiella pneumoniae to Amoxicillin/clavulanic-acid and Cefoperazone/sulbactam were higher than those of Escherichia coli (75.0% vs 0.0%, x2 =26.67, P<0. 05;83. 3%vs 0. 0%, x2 = 12.53, P<0. 05 respectively); no resistance to Imipenem were found. The percentages of extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) positive Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were obviously higher in neonates with late-onset sepsis than those early-onset ones (65.0% vs 17. 8%,x2 = 11.06, P<0. 05; 100. 0 % vs 30. 0 %, x2 = 20. 22, P<0. 05 respectively); and positive ESBLs rate of the late-onset Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis was higher than that of Escherichia coli sepsis (100. 0% vs 65.0%, x2 =9.16, P<0. 05). (4) Comparison of mortality rate: the mortality rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis was higher than that of Escherichia coli sepsis (21.4% vs 4. 0%,x2=6.59, P < 0. 05 ) . Conclusions Compared with Escherichia coli septicemia, Klebsiella pneumoniae septicemia has more severe symptoms, developed to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome or disseminated intravascular coagulation quicker, and has higher mortality rate. The percentage of ESBLs positive Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae increased rapidly. The clinical use of antibiotics should be rationale.

To explore the mechanism of the absorption enhancement of Angelica dahurica extract (Ade), the absorption mechanism of baicalin in the Scutcllaria water extraction as well as the effect of Angelica dahurica extract on absorption of baicalin were investigated. In order to determine the main absorption site, everted intestinal sac model was used to study the effect of Angelica dahurica extract on the absorption of baicalin at duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon. In situ single pass intestinal perfusion model was performed to study the absorption of various concentrations of baicalin and the effect of Angelica dahurica extract on the absorption of baicalin at the main absorption site. To authenticate the consequence of perfusion by getting the blood from the hepatic portal vein and determine the concentration of the baicalin in the blood. The result showed that baicalin could be absorbed at all of the four intestinal segments with increasing absorption amount per unit as follows: ileum > colon > jejunum > duodenum. The absorption ofbaicalin in the duodenum significantly increased with Angelica dahurica extract, thus, duodenum was chosen to be the studying site. Apparent permeability values (Papp) and absorption rate constant (Ka) of baicalin in the duodenum increased gradually with higher concentrations. When the concentration of baicalin rises to a certain degree, the absorption increase had a saturable process, the absorption of baicalin may be an active transportation. Baicalin may be not a substrate of P-gp as verapamil which had not significantly affected the Papp and Ka of baicalin. The absorption of baicalin in the duodenum significantly increased (P < 0.01) in the two models with Angelica dahurica extract and the concentration of baicalin in the blood from the hepatic portal vein showed that the Angelica dahurica extract can increase the absorption of baicalin.

Sepsis is an organ dysfunction that endangers a patient's life caused by an imbalanced infection response, and is a clinically critical illness. Despite a deep understanding of the pathogenesis of sepsis, there has been no significant improvement in sepsis mortality during clinical treatment at home and abroad. In recent years, the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of sepsis has become a new research point in the field of medical research. Autophagy may protect the body by removing pathogenic microorganisms, neutralizing microbial toxins, and regulating cytokine release in sepsis. Studies have shown that autophagy plays a role in heart and lung organ dysfunction and inflammatory immune response in sepsis. Studies have also shown that hydrogen sulphide (H 2S) can activate autophagy through multiple signaling pathways, such as adenylate-activated protein kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin (AMPK/mTOR), phosphoinositide 3 kinase/Akt/mTOR (PI3K/Akt/mTOR), liver kinase B1/STE20 related adapter protein/mouse protein 25 (LKB1/STRAD/MO25) and microRNA-30c (miR-30c), etc. signaling pathways. This article reviewed the effects of H 2S on autophagy-related genes Beclin-1 and microtubule-associated protein light 3 chain (LC3) on intestinal function of sepsis in order to explore the H 2S-mediated autophagy gene expression in pus. The protective role of autophagy gene for intestinal dysfunction provides a new strategy for the treatment of sepsis in the future.

Ras-associated domain family 1A (RASSF1A) genes are members of the RASSF family, which bind to Ras in a guanosine triphosphate(GTP)-dependent manner and then induce Ras-mediated apoptosis. The protein encoded by the RASSF1A gene is similar to the Ras effector protein, which can interact with DNA repair protein XPA, and can also inhibit the accumulation of cyclin D1, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest. The deletion or abnormal expression of RASSF1A gene is related to the pathogenesis of various malignant tumors, indicating that it has tumor suppressor function. RASSF1A gene methylation has been found in at least 37 tumors, and RASSF1A gene may be the most frequently described methylated gene in human cancers. In this paper, the abnormal methylation of RASSF1A gene in different malignant tumors was introduced, and the research progress of its related effects and mechanisms in malignant tumors of the respiratory system, digestive system, genitourinary system, and nervous system in recent years was reviewed, with a view to malignant tumors early diagnosis, individual molecular targeted therapy and prognostic evaluation provide important guidance.
