Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2006;10(4):164-165
BACKGROUND: The incidence rate of spondylolysis of lumbar vertebral arch in recruits is higher during the training, and it affects the normal training. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the correlation of the incidence rate of spondy lolysis of lumbar vertebral arch with training and the original lesions at waist in recruits. DESIGN: A randomized sampling survey. SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, the 97 Hospital of Chinese PLA. PARTICIPANTS: Totally 100 male recruits aged 18.7 years averagely en rolled in 2003 were involved in the survey. METHODS: The 100 recruits were followed up for the whole course, the X-ray examination at lumbar vertebrae of right, lateral and two-slope positions were observed before training and after 100-day reinforced training. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The incidence rates of spondylolysis of vertebral arch, and whether there was slippage and other aggravations in those with spondylolysis before were mainly observed. RESULTS: All the 100 recruits entered the analysis of results. ① The in cidence rate of spondylolysis of vertebral arch before and after training: Be fore training, 5 cases had spondylolysis of L5 vertebral arch, and the incidence rate was 5%. At the end of the 100-day training, 8 cases had spondylolysis of lumbar vertebral arch, and the incidence rate increased to 8%. ② The results of X-ray examination before and after training: The Xray examination showed that isthmus narrowing of left and L5 vertebral arch occurred in 2 cases and 1 case respect ively, and spondylolysis of bilateral L5 vertebral arches occurred in 5 cases, including 1 case of degree I slip page before training. At the end of the 100-day training, the degree I slip page and below occurred in 3 of the 5 cases with spondylolysis of bilateral L5 vertebral arches before, another 3 cases with original narrowing of lumbar vertebral arch all had breakage. CONCLUSION: The incidence rate of spondylolysis of vertebral arch is associated with the training intensity. It suggestes that the examination of spinal cord should be reinforced in enrolled recruits, and the items of Xray examination at lumbar vertebrae of right, lateral and two-slope positions should be added.
4.Advances in diagnosis and treatment of Takayasu arteritis in children
International Journal of Pediatrics 2013;(3):297-300
Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a devastating vasculitis of the aorta and its major branches,coronary and pulmonary arteries.The clinical manifestations in children are less specific than in adnlts:the disease in children presents with fever,arthralgias,vomiting,weight loss and hypertension.Conventional angiography,which is recognized as the golden standard in evaluating vascular lesions in TA,combined with computer tomography angiography (CTA),magnetic resonance angiography (MRA),ultrasonography,could not only provide important information for early diagnosis,but also detect disease activity.New immunosuppressive agents and biological therapies,such as TNF-a blocking agents,have been verified to be effective although corticosteroids and conventional immunosuppressive agents are still basic treatment.
5.Genomics of breast cancer
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(3):207-210
Breast cancer is caused by somatic mutation. As such, somatic mutation in breast cancer should be described to eluci-date the underlying mechanism. Next-generation sequencing has provided new insights into the genomics of breast cancer. New genes were identified and exhibited a relationship with breast cancer. Although these genes mutated at a low frequency, such genes in different cases could be categorized into specific pathways. Mutational signatures could be found in some cases, but such signatures were gener-ally not related to environmental exposure. Studies on intra-tumoral heterogeneity have revealed the ubiquitous presence of sub-clones in breast cancer;however, a major clone is also observed, accounting for>50%of tumor cells. Current advancements show that breast cancer genomics has been integrated into personalized medicine. Furthermore, a genome-informed and personalized molecular sub-typ-ing and treatment of breast cancer can be developed in the future.

7.Mismatch between the short celphalomeduallary nail and the anterior femoral bow in Chinese intertrochanteric fractures: a postoperative radiological study
Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma 2012;14(2):103-107
Objective To observe the matching between the straight short femoral cephalomedullary nail (PFNA-Ⅱ) and the femoral anterior bow in Chinese patients with intertrochanteric fracture. Methods A retrospective study was performed to analyze the postoperative lateral X-rays of 158 patients with intertrochanteric fracture who had been treated by PFNA- Ⅱ between August 2009 and December 2010.They were 35 men and 123 women,with a mean age of 77.2 years.The relationships between the distal tip of the medullary nail and the anterior cortex of the femur were observed according to a self-designed 6-grade scale (grade 0:central location of the nail tip in the medullary canal; grade 1:deviated location without contact with the cortex; grade 2:contact< 1/3 cortex thickness; grade 3:contact > 1/3, < 2/3 cortex thickness; grade 4:contact > 2/3 cortex thickness; grade 5:perforation; posterior deviations in grades 1 to 5 presented as minus).The theoretical distance was measured as if the anterior protrusive nail tip had been placed back to the central axis.The degree of the curvature and its corresponding radius were calculated by the geometric method. Results Of the 158 patients,the distal tip of PFNA- Ⅱ was located centrally along the axis of femur canal in 30 cases(19.0% ),posteriorly to the central axis in 10 cases(6.3% ),and anteriorly to the central axis in 118 cases (grades 1 to 3; 74.7% ),of which 55 cases experienced irritation caused by the contact between the distal tip and the anterior cortex (grades 2 to 3% ).The mean theoretical distance needed to put back the nail tip to the canal central axis was 1.42 ± 0.18 mm in the 17 cm nails,1.77 ± 0.39 mm in the 20 cm nails,and 2.46 ±0.20 mm in the 24 cm nails.Their corresponding curvature arcs were 2.51° ±2.40°,2.13° ± 1.65° and 2.09° ± 0.98°,and their curvature radii were 1483 ± 818 mm,2329 ± 1293 mm,and3710 ± 1957 mm,respectively. Conclusions There is a significant mismatch between the current short straight celphalomedullary nail (PFNA- Ⅱ) and the femoral anterior how in Chinese population.A curvature design is needed for the short cephaiomedullary nails to match the femoral anterior how of Chinese population.

10.Development of cancer stem cell
International Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2006;0(04):-
According to traditional theory tumor growth arised from the proliferation of all tumor cells, therefore management mainly aimed at the majority of the cells within cancer tissue. As a result, relapse and metastasis developed often, which caused treatment failure. It was stem cell that makes it possible to treat cancer radically and prevent it from relapsing and metastasizing by specifically killing targeted cancer stem cells and even some old concepts such as tumorigenesis mechanism, cell signaling pathways etc may need to be reevaluated, that raised great challenge to traditional oncotherapy. In this text the origin and existing evidence of cancer stem cell, it's relationship to common stem cell, clinical significance and prospect were reviewed.
