Objective To evaluate the effect of isoflurane on the expression of phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (p-GSK-3β) and β-catenin in neural stem cells (NSCs) in the hippocampus of developing rats.Methods Twenty-four 7-day-old Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 15-20 g,were divided into 2 groups (n =12 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and 2% isoflurane group (group Ⅰ).Group C inhaled 30% oxygen for 4 h.Group Ⅰ inhaled 2% isoflurane in 30% oxygen for 4 h.Six rats were randomly selected from each group,and 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) 200 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected immediately before anesthesia to assess the proliferation of NSCs in the hippocampal dentate gyrus.The rats were sacrificed at 6 h after the end of anesthesia,and hippocampi were isolated for determination of the number of BrdU positive cells in the dentate gyrus (by immunohistochemistry) and expression of p-GSK-3β and β-catenin in hippocampal tissues (by Western blot analysis).Results Compared with group C,the number of BrdU positive cells was significantly decreased,and the expression of p-GSK-3β and β-catenin was down-regulated in group Ⅰ (P<0.05).Conclusion Isoflurane can inhibit the proliferation of NSCs in the hippocampal dentate gyrus of developing rats,and the mechanism may be related to down-regulation of the expression of p-GSK-3β and β-catenin.

Objective To evaluate the secondary internal fixation plus bone grafting for salvage of failed internal fixation for intertrochanteric hip fractures. Methods Between January 2001 and March 2008, 25 patients with intertrochanteric fractures who had suffered from failed initial internal fixation were treated with secondary open reduction and internal fixation and bone auto grafting. They were 15 men and 10 women, with a mean age of 50 (17 to 72) years. The mean interval between the initial operation and the revision was 12 (4 to 27) months. The failure of original internal implants involved the dynamic hip screw (DHS) in 12 patients, the dynamic condylar screw (DCS) in 3, the angular blade plate (ABP) in 1, the cephalomedullary nail in 3 and the cannulated screw in 6. The replacement of internal implants included PFN in 12 eases, DCS in 7, DHS in 4 and ABP (95°) in 2. Results The mean follow-up was 24 (6 to 84) months. The revisions were uneventful. Of the 25 nonunions, 24 healed (96.0%). The postoperative mean hip rating (Harris score) for the hip joint was 87(35 to 100) points. The X-ray films at the last follow-up revealed the coLlodiaphyseal angle averaged 120° ( 110° to 140°). No avascular necrosis of the femoral head or hip degeneration was found. Conclusion In properly selected patients, secondary internal fixation with bone grafting for failed open reduction and internal fixation of intertrochanteric hip fractures can provide a high rate of union and good clinical results with a low rate of complications.

OBJECTIVETo establish a preoperative deep venous thrombosis predictor score for patients with fresh lower extremity fractures by statistical analysis.
METHODSFrom January 2011 to December 2012, 1 705 patients with fresh lower extremity fractures were admitted to department of orthopaedic trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. They were randomly divided into two groups, the group 1 (n = 879) was used to screen risk factors and derived a predictive models based on logistic regression, the group 2 (n = 826) validated the models.
RESULTSAmong the patients, there were 1 106 male and 599 female patients, with an average age of (50 ± 18) years.Variables related to preoperative deep venous thrombosis were age, length of time before surgery, cause of injury, low/high-energy injury, location of injury, history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and D-Dimer. The scores based on OR were: age ≤ 35 years: 1 point, > 35- < 65 years: 4 points, ≥ 65 years: 6 points; length of time before surgery, < 8 days:1 point, ≥ 8 days:2 points;low-energy injury:1 point, high energy injury:3 points;location of injury, foot and ankle:1 point, calf:3 points, around the knee: 5 points, femoral diaphysis and proximal femur:7 points, pelvis and acetabulum:4 points, ≥ 2 sites:6 point;history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, yes:2 points, no:1 point. D-Dimer < 600 µg/L:1 point, ≥ 600 µg/L:3 points. Area under receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.79, critical point 15.5 points, sensitivity was 77.00%, specificity was 68.17%.

OBJECTIVETo study the quantitative measurement of the extent of malrotation after interlocking intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fracture.
METHODCT scan ("routine method") applied in 36 femoral shaft fractures that had been treated with close reduction and interlocking intramedullary nailing. For the judgement of the extent of malrotation, the anteversion of both fracture side and contralateral side were measured and the difference between the 2 sides was evaluated. The increase of anteversion represented internal rotation of the distal fragment, whereas the decrease of anteversion represented external rotation.
RESULTSThe maximum anteversion of the fracture sides, whereas 48 degrees, the minimum anteversion -10 degrees, the mean value, 15.04 degrees, and the standard error is 11.34 degrees. The maximum anteversion of the contralateral side, whereas 31.3 degrees, minimum -4.8 degrees, the mean value was 13.96 degrees and the standard error was 10.20 degrees (P < 0.001). Compared with the contralateral side, half of the 36 cases showed increased anteversion and the other half decreased anteversion. The mean value of internal rotation is 11.56 degrees, and external rotation 9.39 degrees. The maximum internal rotation was 37 degrees, the minimum 0.9 degrees. Eight cases had internal rotation less than 8 degrees, 6 between 10 degrees - 15 degrees, and 4 over 15 degrees. The maximum external rotation was 24.3 degrees, and the minimum 1.8 degrees. Eleven cases had external rotation less than 10 degrees, 4 between 10 degrees - 15 degrees and 3 over 15 degrees. The incidence of malrotation more than 10 degrees was 47% (17/36), and more than 15 degrees 19.4% (7/36).
CONCLUSIONThe incidence of malrotation after femoral shaft fracture treated with close reduction and interlocking intramedullary nailing is high. Attention should be paid to clinical management and strict control for rotational reduction intra-operatively.

Objective To explore the management of postoperative infection following open reduction and internal fixation for acetabular fractures.Methods Ten patients were treated and completely followed up in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from February 2012 to December 2016 for postoperative infection after open reduction and internal fixation for acetabular fracture.They were 9 males and one female,aged from 14 to 64 years(mean,40.6 years).According to Letournel classification,there were 2 double-column fractures,2 anterior descending transverse fractures,2 anterior column fractures,one posterior wall fracture,and one posterior wall fracture.Eight cases developed surgical regional infection within 2 weeks after internal fixation,and 2 presented with symptoms of infection more than 3 months after fracture fixation.Vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) was used to treat one case of acute superficial infection;open debridement surgery,carrier with sensitive antibiotics and intravenous antibiotics were used to treat 7 cases of acute deep infection and 2 cases of chronic deep infection.Results The infection symptoms disappeared 9 days after removal of VSD device in the one case of acute superficial infection.Normal fracture union was achieved in 6 cases after their infection was controlled;4 cases had to undergo total hip arthroplasty because their articular structure was damaged after control of infection.The 10 patients were followed up for 6 to 54 months (mean,25.7 months).Their Harris scores at the last follow-up averaged 74.8 (from 32 to 92).Conclusions Negative-pressure wound therapy is an effective management for acute superficial infection after acetabular fracture.Deep acute infection needs early repeated debridement combined with sensitive antibiotic carrier to protect joint function.For infection which is difficult to control or chronic infection associated with structural damage,repeated debridement combined with sensitive antibiotic spacer is effective for infection control at the first stage and artificial total hip arthroplasty can be carried out at the second stage when the infection is controlled.
