Objective　To determine the diversity of ureB gene of H. pylori for development of vaccines and evaluation of diagnostic kits by sequence analysis of ureB genes of 8 H. pylori. Methods　Primers were designed according to the sequence of strain 26695 and used to amplify the ureB gene of H. pylori (CAPM N62, CAMP N93, CAMP N98, CAMP F3). The PCR products were cloned into pGEM-T vector respectively and sequenced. The sequences of tested strains were compared with the corresponding regions of the GenBank strains (26695, J99, MD506, CPM630) and analyzed by DNA and Winstar software. Results　There are three kinds of length of ureB gene in all 8 strains. The lengths of ureB gene of CAMP F3 and CPM630 are 1269bp and 1680bp respectively. The others are 1710bp. The result of the sequence analysis of ureB gene of 6 strains of H. pylori with length of 1710bp indicated that the three foreign strains showed high homology in nucleotide acid and their homology were 100% in putative amino acid. The three domestic strains were closely related. Conclusions　As a potential protective antigen, ureB has the problem of variable coverage rate in different populations. In order to gain extensive coverage rate, it is important to find the antigen peptide of conservative ureB gene of H. pylori which is predominant in population.

Thirty three tibial fractures treated with interlocking intramedullary nail(IMN) were reviewed. Of all the patients, 16 were fixed with reamed IMN, and 17 with nonreamed IMN. There were 22 closed and 11 open fractures. Twenty seven patients were followed up for an average of 17.9 months (4 to 31 months). Of all the patients, 22 healed in 6 months, delayed healing occurred in 1,and in 1 the distal locking screw was broken. In the close fractures, the mean time from fracture to operation was 3.55 days (from the injury day to 27 days) , and in the open fractures operation was all done on the day of injury. Nonreamed IMN was used in 12 closed fractures (54.5%, 12/22 ) , and reamed IMN was used in 4 open fractures (36.3%, 4/11). There was no postoperative compartment syndrome or infection. The interlocking intramedullary pin is indicated for the tibia fractures, and early operation is feasible . The nonreamed interlocking intramedullary pin is suitable for open fractures and multi injuries.

Objective To report the result of minimally invasive treatment of scaphoid non-union in soldiers. Methods Twenty-two soldiers 19 to 27 years of age were admitted for the treatment of non-union of fracture of scaphoid bone. The duration of non-union ranged from 11 to 54 months (average 16 months).All the non-union was located at the scaphoid waist, with a gap of 2 to 5 mm (average 2.5mm) as shown by radiological examination. Cyst-like changes occurred in 6 cases and displacement of the sclerotic fracture ends was found in 3 cases. Under local anethesia, a needle was inserted into the site of non-union under X-ray monitor, and 5-10 ml red bone marrow harvested from the iliac crest was injected into the site of non-union. The wrist was immobilized in functional position with elastic bandage or plaster of paris cast after the injection. Radiological follow-up was carried out every one month postoperatively. Bone marrow injection could be repeated 1 month later when necessary. Results Bone union was found in 19 cases 3-15 months (average 6 months ) after the operation. Non-union recurred in 3 patients in whom displacement of the sclerotic fracture ends was found. No complications, such as infection or joint stiffness, occurred. Conclusion Minimally invasive treatment of scaphoid non-union in soldiers can relieve pain, reduce the hospitalization days and cost, and the result is satisfactory.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the economic effects of different doses of methylprednisolone treatment regimes on traumatic reaction in patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy after anterior decompressive operation.METHODS:56cervical spondylotic myelopathy cases who have been subjected to anterior decompressive operation were chosen to be the sub-jects.The56cases were divided into3groups and treated with different dosage of methylprednisolone,the initial dose for group A(18cases,low dose group)was80mg;the initial dose for group B(21cases,medium dose group)was600mg and that for group C(17cases,large dose group)was1000mg,the improvement of clinical symptom of each group was observed re-spectively and the cost-effectivenesses of the three groups were compared.RESULTS:The costs of the A,B,C groups were990.00,1339.10and1886.70yuan respectively;the effectiveness rates(E)of the A,B,C groups were5.56%,14.29%and35.29%respectively;The costs for each unit of obvious effectiveness(C/E)of the A,B,C groups were178.06,93.71and53.46yuan respectively;On the basis of group A,the needed costs of group B and C were39.99and30.16yuan respectively for each obvious effectiveness unit increase(?C/?E).CONCLUSION:Compared with group A and B,the effectiveness rates of group C had a bigger increase while the needed cost for each unit of obvious effectiveness was the lowest,therefore,the dose regimen of group C is more rational.
