BACKGROUND:Intertrochanteric fracture showed shattered state of different degrees in the clinic. The medial cortex is often a lack of continuity. Indentation and lesser trochanter displacement often cause destruction of biomechanics of femoral calcar to different degrees. Under this condition, it is very important to perform detailed classification of fractures and to strictly master indication of dynamic hip screw. OBJECTIVE:To further analyze the reasons for failure of internal fixation with dynamic hip screw for intertrochanteric fracture. METHODS:Data of 82 patients with intertrochanteric fracture repaired by internal fixation with dynamic hip screw, who were treated at the Department of Orthopedics, Kangtai Branch of the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from March 2004 to December 2013, were retrospectively analyzed. The reason for failure of internal fixation and prevention method were explored. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al patients were fol owed up for 4-48 months. Time of fracture healing was 12-38 weeks. Fixation failure was found in 12 cases, with an incidence of 15%. Of 12 failure cases, 7 cases affected hip screw cutting out femoral head neck (including 1 case combined with avascular necrosis of the femoral head), 1 case suffered from compression screw slipping out of the tube, 3 cases experienced screw pul ing out and breaking, plate loosening, and 1 case affected steel plate breakage. There were 1 case of Evans II type (8%), 3 cases of type III (25%), 5 cases of type IV (42%), and 3 cases of type V (25%). Lesser trochanter was not completely reset in 5 cases (42%). There were tip-apex distance>25 mm in 7 cases (58%) and early weight loading (3 weeks after fixation) in 1 case (8%). These data confirmed that the selection of indications, the degree of stability after reduction, accuracy of implant position and postoperative unreasonable exercise wil cause fixation failure of dynamic hip screw. Preoperative careful and comprehensive analysis, intraoperative precise operation and postoperative reasonable functional exercise are the keys to ensure success of fixation.

Un-transfected rabbit corneal endothelial cells (RCECs) were cultivated, using chitosan blend membrane 4ha (chitosan-hyaluronic acid), 631ha (chitosan-hyaluronic acid) and 631s (chitosan-chondroitine sulfate) as scaffold carriers. Their biocompatibilities were studied in regard to cell adherence, morphological changes, growth status and monolayer forming abilities. The results indicated that RCECs cultivated on 4ha and 631ha carriers tended to be aggregated and even desquamated to some extent in local areas, and even more severely on 631ha carrier. And the RCECs cultivated on 631ha carrier could form almost a monolayer 48h later, and those on 4ha carrier could not. Contrarily, the RCECs cultivated on 631s carrier were evenly distributed and were in good status of growth with a good adherence and fibroblast-like morphology which could form almost a monolayer 48h later. And a complete monolayer was formed and was tightly attached to the 631s carrier 72h later. From the above results, it can be concluded that 631s carrier is most probably an ideal scaffold carrier for RCEC cultivation. 631s carrier may have the potential for use in the development of tissue-engineered rabbit corneal endothelium.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of ultrafiltration technique in preventing and relieving pulmonary injury in children undergoing open heart surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
METHODSThirty cases with congenital heart defects were divided into a control group and an experimental group. In the control group, conventional cardiopulmonary bypass was used without ultrafiltration; while in the experimental group, cardiopulmonary bypass with balanced ultrafiltration and modified ultrafiltration were used. Pulmonary static compliance (Cstat), airway resistance (Raw), alveolar-arterial oxygen difference (A-a DO2), hematocrit (HCT), serum albumin (Alb), interleukin-6 (IL-6), endothelia-1 (ET-1) and thromboxane (TXB2) were measured.
RESULTSThe pulmonary function was improved, HCT and serum albumin concentrations were increased, and some harmful medium-size solutes were decreased in the experimental groups compared with the control group.
CONCLUSIONSCombination of balanced ultrafiltration with modified ultrafiltration can effectively concentrate blood, exclude harmful inflammatory mediators, and attenuate lung edema and inflammatory responsive pulmonary injury.

Objective To evaluate the effect of an inverse planning simulated annealing (IPSA) in the treatment of cervical cancer with combined intracavitary and interstitial three-dimensional brachytherapy.Methods A total of 60 patients with locally advanced cervical cancer who received both external beam radiotherapy and combined intracavitary and interstitial brachytherapy in our hospital from October 2016 to July 2018 were enrolled.Patients were divided into four groups with 15 patients each according to the number of needles applied (1,2,3,and 4 needles,respectively).Dosimetric distributions were optimized with both Graphical optimization (GRO) and IPSA.Paired t-test was applied to compare the dosimetric differences between plans optimized with GRO and IPSA.Results The Dg0 and V100 of IPSA plans were higher than those of GRO (t=-4.742,-4.823,P<0.05),while the conformity index (CI) and conformal index (COIN) were slightly lower than those of GRO plans (t=9.642,8.783,P<0.05).No significant difference in the V150,V200,V300 between IPSA and GRO (P>0.05) was observed.There was also no significant difference in the D2cm3 of bladder and rectum between IPSA and GRO (P>0.05).The difference of Dg0 between IPSA and GRO was increased as the number of implanted needles increased,which increased from 4 cGy to 14 cGy as the number of needle increased from 1 to 4.The difference of V100 between GRO and IPSA was also increased as the number of needle increased.Conclusions In the treatment of cervical cancer with combined intracavitary and interstitial threedimensional brachytherapy,IPSA plan could improve the target coverage(D90,V100)without increasing the dose to the OARs and high dose region in the target compared with GRO.With the numbers of needles increased,the advantage of IPSA increased in terms of target coverage.

Androgen receptor (AR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that plays a pivotal role in the development and progression of many severe diseases such as prostate cancer, muscle atrophy, and osteoporosis. Binding of ligands to AR triggers the conformational changes in AR that may affect the recruitment of coactivators and downstream response of AR signaling pathway. Therefore, AR ligands have great potential to treat these diseases. In this study, we searched for novel AR ligands by performing a docking-based virtual screening (VS) on the basis of the crystal structure of the AR ligand binding domain (LBD) in complex with its agonist. A total of 58 structurally diverse compounds were selected and subjected to LBD affinity assay, with five of them (HBP1-3, HBP1-17, HBP1-38, HBP1-51, and HBP1-58) exhibiting strong binding to AR-LBD. The IC values of HBP1-51 and HBP1-58 are 3.96 µM and 4.92 µM, respectively, which are even lower than that of enzalutamide (Enz, IC = 13.87 µM), a marketed second-generation AR antagonist. Further bioactivity assays suggest that HBP1-51 is an AR agonist, whereas HBP1-58 is an AR antagonist. In addition, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and principal components analysis (PCA) were carried out to reveal the binding principle of the newly-identified AR ligands toward AR. Our modeling results indicate that the conformational changes of helix 12 induced by the bindings of antagonist and agonist are visibly different. In summary, the current study provides a highly efficient way to discover novel AR ligands, which could serve as the starting point for development of new therapeutics for AR-related diseases.
