ObjectiveTo investigate the effort of MHA-bBMP implantation combined with limited contacted titanium net duct fixation on femoral shaft bone defect of rabbit.Methods48 rabbits were divided into the experimental group (treated with bionic bone MHA-bBMP plus titanium net duck) and control group (treated with iliac autograft plus titanium net duct) with 24 animals in each group. The rabbit femoral shaft bone defect model was established by cutting 10 mm bone fragment off. After operation, bionic bone MHA-bBMP/iliac autograft was implanted into bone defect area and fixed with limited contacted titanium net duck. The general condition, serum alkaline phosphatase, X-ray, histopathologic examination and electron microscope were performed.ResultsThe fixation stability of titanium net duck in two groups was good. The bone defect of two groups was repaired. The results of phosphatase, X-ray, histopathologic examination and electron microscope of two groups were not significantly different.ConclusionBionic bone MHA-bBMP is a high bioactivity substitute, and can obtain therapeutic effect equal to iliac autograft when repairing rabbit's femoral shaft defect.

A case of the H syndrome was reported.An 18-year-old man presented with an 8-year history of progressive cutaneous sclerosis,skin hyperpigmentation,and hypertrichosis on the trunk and extremities.In addition,he suffered from short stature,hearing loss,cardiac anomaly,hepatosplenomegaly,and scrotal masses.Laboratory examination revealed hypogonadism.Cutaneous histopathologic examination showed hyperpigmentation of the basal layer with acanthosis,widespread fibrosis (moderate in dermis and severe in subcutis) and an infiltrate composed of histiocytes and plasma cells.A perivascular lymphocyte infiltrate was also observed throughout the dermis and subcutaneous fat tissue.These findings were consistent with the H syndrome.Differential diagnosis must be made with Winchester syndrome and polyneuropathy, organomegaly,endocrinopathy,M-protein and skin change (POEMS) syndrome.

Objective To investigate the replantation of complete severed fingertip when vein can't be repaired and only artery be repaired. Methods All 13 cases complete severed fingertips were replantated with only artery anastomosis but vein cannot be repaired.Low molecular weight heparin was applied to prevent blood clotting postoperation. Blood-letting by nail extraction or latero-incision were done in some cases.The survival fingers were observed. Results After 3-12 months followed-up,12 cases survived with satisfactory appearance and locomotion,2-PD of 2-7 mm,but 1 case was failed. Conclusion The replanted fingertip may survival with only artery anastomosis because of fewer tissue and faster recontruction of venous return.It would raise the survival rate of replanted fingertip by blood-letting by nail extraction or latero-incision according to the traumatic condition.

AIM: To study the effect of Lomerizine on the activity of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in the bloodbrain barrier(BBB) and search for novel effective P-gp inhibiting agent against multidrug resistance. METH-ODS: Rhodamine123 (Rh123) was used to examine the activity of P-gp and RT-PCR to study the mdr mRNA expression in cultured rat brain microvessel endothelial cells (RBMECs). RESULTS: Lomerizine could increase the cellular Rh123 in RBMECs in a concentration-dependent manner. RT-PCR indicated that lomerizine could not down-regulate the expression of mdr mRNA. CONCLU-SION: Lomerizine can reverse multidrug resistance in the blood-brain barrier by inhibiting the activity of P-gp.KEY WORDS lomerizine; P-glycoprotein; bloodbrain barrier; RT-PCR

Three cases of medallion-like dermal dendrocyte hamartoma are reported.The patients included two men and one woman,and were aged from 2 to 38 years.All the patients presented with medallion-shaped,welldefined,slightly atrophic and asymptomatic congenital patches with prominently dilated superficial veins that had grown proportionately with the body length.Histological examination revealed similar changes in all of these patients,including epidermal atrophy and dermal proliferation of spindle cells,which stained positive for CD34,factor ⅩⅢa and vimentin,but negative for S100,CD68,CDla,CD31 and smooth muscle actin (SMA).None of the patients received special therapy,and the lesions enlarged slightly with body growth within 3-4 years of follow-up after the diagnosis.

AIM:To study the changes of tear film and ocular surface after the coaxial incision 2.5mm and 3.0mm in the phacoemulsification.METHODS: Seventy patients (92 eyes) from February 2015 to February 2016 in our hospital were enrolled.The patients were randomly divided into two groups.Thirty-four patients (46 eyes) in Group A: coaxial 2.5mm incision phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens(IOL) implantation.Thirty-six patients (46 eyes) in Group B: the conventional coaxial 3.0mm small incision phacoemulsification cataract extraction and IOL implantation.The break up time (BUT),Schirmer`s Ⅰ test (SⅠt) and lid-parallel conjunctival folds (LIPCOF) were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively.RESULTS: At 1wk,1 and 3mo postoperatively,the BUT in two groups decreased after operations,and the BUT of Group B was significantly lower than those of Group A,the differences were statistically significant (t=3.089,4.497,4.322;all P<0.05).The SⅠt in two groups increased after operations,the SⅠt of Group B was significantly higher than those of Group A and the differences were statistically significant (t=-6.286,-3.992,-3.278;all P<0.05).The LIPCOF score in two groups increased after operations,the LIPCOF score of Group B was significantly higher than those of Group A and the differences were statistically significant (t=-6.552,-5.131,-3.652;all P<0.05).At 6mo postoperatively,compared with the preoperative data,the BUT,SⅠt and LIPCOF score in Group A showed no statistically significant differences (t=0.646,0.551,0.165;P>0.05).The BUT,SⅠt and LIPCOF score in Group B showed statistically significant differences (t=-4.059,3.629,4.211;all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Ocular surface has less damage and tear film has little influence at early stage after the coaxial 2.5mm incision phacoemulsmcation,compared with the conventional coaxial 3.0mm incision phacoemulsification surgery.

Objective To determine the level of defensins(HNP_(1-3))and interleukin-8(IL-8)in colon tissue of patients with ulcerative colitis(UC)and to explore the relationship between HNP_(1-3)and IL-8 and the severity of disease.Methods The level of HNP_(1-3)and IL-8 in colon mucosa of UC patients was detected by immunohistochemistry method.Results The levels of HNP_(1-3)and IL-8 in colon mucosa of UC patients were much higher than that of normal controls.The expression of HNP_(1-3)and IL 8 of UC patients was higher in involved mueosa than in corresponding normal mucosa.The expression of HNP_(1-3) and IL-8 was related to the extent of lesion and the degree of disease.The expression of HNP_(1-3)was significantly correlated with that of IL-8(r_s＝0.957,P＜0.01).Conclusions The induction of HNP_(1-3) and IL-8 was involved in process of inflammation and development of UC.Regulating mechanisms of HNP_(1-3)expression might be related with the induction of IL-8.

BACKGROUND:The development of minimaly invasive technology significantly reduces the occurrence of surgical complications due to spinal metastases. Currently, the minimaly invasive treatment basicaly has three broad categories: vertebral cement augmentation, radiofrequency ablation combined with vertebroplasty, intraoperative radiotherapy combined with vertebroplasty. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the research progress of three kinds of minimaly invasive treatments for spinal metastases. METHODS:PubMed and Wanfang databases were searched using the keywords of spinal metastases, vertebroplasty, radiofrequency ablation, radiotherapy in English and Chinese, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Vertebral cement augmentation with good analgesic effect has been used widely, and the efficiency is up to 80%-90%. But its effect to kil tumors is very limited that is unable to control tumor growth. Radiofrequency ablation and radiation can kil the tumor, but cannot rebuild the vertebral stability. Therefore, the combination of different technologies can improve the therapeutic effect on spinal tumors. In recent years, intraoperative radiation and implantation of radioactive particles or radioactive bone cement have been developed as new technologies. However, there is no conclusion that these new technologies have better outcomes than the vertebral cement augmentation because of less reports and lack of long-term folow-up. Especialy in the metastatic patients with damaged vertebral posterior wal and tumors invaded into vertebral canal, the risk of nerve function damage caused by bone cement leakage is stil very high, even after many attempts. Above al, there is no a perfect minimaly invasive treatment for spinal metastases.

Objective To summarize our experience in choledochofiberscopic treatment for residual stones of biliary tract. Methods 1105 cases of residual stones of biliary tract diagnosed and treated with choledochofiberscope in the past 19 years were reviewed retrospectively. Results The 1067 patients with residual stones of bile duct were treated with choledochofiberscope for 1483 times altogether. The stones were completely removed in 1035 cases, while the stones were not cleared in other 32 cases. The clearance rate of residual stones was 97.0%(1035/1067). No patient died of choledochofiberscopic treatment. Conclusions Choledochofiberscopic treatment plays an important role in the treatment of residual stones of bile duct, because it not only reduces residual stones of bile duct to avoid repeated operation, but also has some advantages such as excellent safety, minimal invasion, low cost and quicker recovery.
