Objective To study the effect of arthroscopy in conjunction with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) in the treatment of tibial plateau fracture.Methods 78 cases of tibial plateau fracture patients admitted during March 2011 and June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed, with 38 cases given the conven-tional open reduction treatment (group A) and 40 given arthroscopy in conjunction with MIPPO (group B).The clini-cal efficacy, Rasmussen excellent rate and good rate, and postoperative complications in both groups were then com-pared.Results The operative time showed no significant difference in both groups (p >0.05); the time of hospital-ization, the length of surgical incision and healing time of group B were significantly better than group A (p <0.05);after follow -up observation, Rasmussen excellent rate and good rate of group B were significantly higher than group A (p <0.05).Conclusion Arthroscopic in conjunction with MIPPO has the advantages of smaller surgical wound, faster recovery and fewer complications, and have good efficacy and better clinical value for the treatment of tibial plateau fractures.

Objective To observe the specific humoral and cellular immune response in BALB/c mice injected with pS and p18S. Methods pS and p18S were constructed separately by inserting HBsAg gene fragment and the fusion gene fragment of HBsAg and mouse interleukin 18(IL 18) into the reading frame of pcDNA3.1+. Mice were injected with either plasmid intramuscularly in a total dose of 300 ?g per mouse. Every serum sample was detected for anti HBs using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Furthermore, HBsAg specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes activity was measured. Results The expression of HBsAg was demonstrated by ELISA in p815 cells transfected with pS and p18S. pS can stimulate a positive antibody response. The average level was 135 mIU/ml, with the highest level of 530 mIU/ml. p18S could elicit relatively lower antibody response which was 20 mIU/ml. HBsAg specific CTL activities were 37.1% and 34% separately in pS and p18S immunized mice. It was only 13.2% when detected in pcDNA3.1+ immunization. Conclusion pS is effective to stimulate a humoral and cellular response in H 2d mice. IL 18 gene can not enhance the immune response when fused with HBsAg gene. Conversely, it seems to inhibit an immune response.

Background:Inflammation plays an important role in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI),and erythropoietin (EPO)has been reported to have anti-inflammatory activity. Aims:To explore the protective effect of EPO on intestinal IRI and its potential mechanism. Methods:Thirty-two healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups:sham operation group(sham group),IRI group,EPO group and 740Y-P group. Rats in IRI,EPO and 740Y-P groups were injected intraperitoneally with 0. 9% NaCl,EPO and EPO + 740Y-P,respectively,one hour before the establishment of intestinal IRI model by superior mesenteric artery clamping(45 min)-reperfusion. All rats were sacrificed one hour after reperfusion. Histopathological changes of small intestine were observed;expression of proteins in PI3K/ Akt and NF-κB signaling pathways was measured by Western blotting;expression and secretion of inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-8(IL-8),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)were examined by real-time PCR and ELISA. Results:Compared with sham group,the damage score of small intestine,protein expressions of PI3K,p-Akt and p-NF-κB p65,as well as mRNA expressions and serum levels of IL-8,TNF-α and MCP-1 in IRI group were significantly increased(P < 0. 05). EPO pretreatment could ameliorate the histopathological changes of small intestine in IRI model rats,inhibit PI3K/ Akt and NF-κB signaling activation and down-regulate expression and secretion of inflammatory cytokines. When 740Y-P,a PI3K agonist,was used combinedly,the effect exerted by EPO was diminished. Conclusions:EPO pretreatment can protect against intestinal IRI by inhibiting the activation of PI3K/ Akt/NF-κB signaling and the subsequent inflammatory response.

ABSTRACT:Objective To explore cardiac function and myocardial collagen type I in diet-induced insulin-resistant rats and the effect of telmisartan on cardiac diastolic function in diet-induced insulin-resistant rats. Methods We randomized 27 Wistar rats into control group (n = 9 ),high-fat group (n = 9 ),and telmisartan treatment group (n = 9 ).At the end of the study,left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP)and left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP)of the rats and ± dp/dt were detected by carotid artery intubation.Masson cardiac staining was used to observe cardiac fibrosis,and collagen volume fraction (CVF)was measured.ELISA method was used to detect the concentration of plasma PICP and ICTP.Results Compared with the control group,in high-fat group LVEDP was significantly higher and -dP/dtmax decreased significantly (P < 0.01 );the plasma PICP level and the ratio of PICP/ICTP were significantly increased (P <0.01),cardiac collagen volume
fraction was significantly higher (P <0.01).After 22 weeks’telmisartan intervention,compared with the high-fat group,LVEDP and LVSP were significantly decreased (P < 0.01 ),but -dP/dtmax significantly increased (P <0.05).The level of the plasma PICP and PICP/ICTP were significantly decreased (P < 0.05 );left ventricular myocardial tissue collagen volume fraction content was decreased (P <0.01).The correlation analysis showed that cardiac collagen volume fraction in insulin-resistant group was positively correlated with insulin resistance index but negatively correlated with -dp/dtmax (P < 0.01 ).Conclusion Insulin resistance promoted the synthesis of myocardial type I collagen,leading to increased myocardial collagen deposition and decreased cardiac diastolic function.Telmisartan may improve diastolic function partly by improving insulin resistance and reducing the deposition of myocardial collagen type I.
