BACKGROUND:The surgical management to reconstruct the stability in lumbosacral region is very chal enging. There are many techniques to reconstruct the stability of the lumbosacral region, but the internal fixation loosening, fracture and pseudoarthosis are not uncommon. OBJECTIVE:Finite element analysis was used to analyze the stability of two types of reconstruction procedures and the stress of the internal fixation system. METHODS:A 64-slice spiral CT scan was used in a subject from L1 to pelvis. The scan data were imported into the Mimics 15.0 software to generate a three-dimensional surface model. The three-dimensional solid model was established using in the SolidWorks software. The solid geometry model of the L3, 4 pedicle screws combined with single iliac screw fixation and L3,4 pedicle screws combined with dual iliac screws and anterior titanium mesh cage support fixation were constructed by the Solidworks software. Two kinds of reconstruction procedures were simulated. The models were given material properties and analyzed by using the ABAQUS software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The maximum stress was 195.3 MPa in the complete model, 189.5 MPa in single iliac screw model, and 149.2 MPa in dual iliac screw+titanium cage model when constrained the roof of double acetabulum and applied a vertical load of 1 000 N. (2) The axial compression rigidity was 551.572 N/mm in the complete model, 613.87 N/mm in the single iliac screw model and 1 683.50 N/mm in the dual iliac screw+titanium cage model. (3) The bending rigidity of the dual iliac screw+titanium cage model was bigger than other models at 6 directions when applied 7 N?m bending loads. The maximum stress of single iliac screw model was bigger than other models. (4) The results suggest that the dual iliac screw+titanium mesh cage reconstruction can effectively restore the stability of the lumbosacral area. The stress of internal fixation system is smal er and more dispersed. There is obvious stress concentration in the connecting rod and the tail of the single iliac screw. The single iliac screw internal fixation system is easy to fatigue fracture and loosening.

Objective Evaluation of the effect of manual reduction with small external fixation on the treatment of elderly Barton fractures.Methods A total of 244 elderly patients with Barton fractures were divided into conservative group (n=126) and operation group (n=118) according to random number table. The conservative group was treated by with manual reduction with small external fixation, and the operation group was treated with open reduction and internal fixation. The complications of the patients, the time of fracture healing, hospitalization time and treatment cost were recorded.The wrist function was evaluated by PRWE wrist score system and Wrightington wrist function score system.The clinical efficacy was evaluated by Gartland-Werley Colles fracture evaluation method.Results The excellent and good effect rate was 91.3% (115/126) in the conservative group and 97.5% (115/118) in the operation group. There was no significant difference between the two groups(χ2=0.857,P=0.354). One year, 6 months, 3 months and 6 weeks after treatment, in the conservative group, the PRWE score (10.4 ± 7.9, 19.1 ± 8.0, 40.5 ± 7.8, 55.7 ± 8.1vs. 80.8 ± 8.2,F=113.665), wrightington score (8.2 ± 3.7, 13.2 ± 4.0, 21.4 ± 3.9, 26.3 ± 4.2vs. 30.1 ± 4.2,F=121.348) were significantly lower than those before treatment (P<0.01). And in the operation group, the PRWE score (10.2 ± 7.8, 15.0 ± 8.0, 26.5 ± 8.0, 44.7 ± 8.2vs. 79.6 ± 8.6,F=81.411), Wrightington score (8.1 ± 3.8, 12.1 ± 4.0, 16.5 ± 4.0, 20.6 ± 4.3vs. 29.8 ± 4.6,F=69.113) were significantly lower than those before treatment (P<0.01). But there was no significant difference in PRWE score and Wrightington scores between the two groups after treatment (t=0.149, 0.104,P=0.881, 0.917, respectively). In the conservative group, the hospitalization time (5.28 ± 2.10 dvs. 12.8 ± 2.21d,t=25.260) was significantly shorter than that of the control group (P<0.01), and the treatment cost (3.26 ± 0.93 thousandvs. 28.66 ± 1.04 thousand,t=200.369) was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.01). The overall incidence of complication was 8.7% (11/126) in the conservative group and 17.8% in the surgery group (21/118). There was significant difference between the two groups(χ2=4.396,P=0.036).Conclusions The manual reduction with small splint external fixation was simple, low cost, small trauma, short hospitalization time, and less complications.

Objective To observe the effect of Chinese herbal fumigation combined with CPM promote the function recovery after Postoperative Patellar Fracture. Methods Eighty patients with patellar fracture were randomly divided into treatment group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases). The control group was treated with CPM. The treatment group was treated with Chinese Herbal Fumigation and CPM. After 8th weeks, the clinical curative effect, knee range of motion and KSS knee score were observed and compared. Results The effect rate of the treatment group was 87.5% (35/40), and the control group was 65.0% (26/40). The difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.591, P<0.01). After treatment, the range of motion of knee joint (138.38°± 7.82°vs. 0.29°± 7.83°, t=10.338), KSS knee function score (88.38 ± 9.52 vs. 3.46 ± 9.36, t=2.330) of the treatment group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusions The Chinese medicine fumigation combined with CPM functional exercise could accelerate the recovery of knee function and reduce the complications of fracture after patellar fracture.

AIM To investigate the effects of Sanqi Huayu Oral Liquid (Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma,Corydalis Rhizoma) on femoral shaft comminuted fracture caused by trauma in perioperative period of high-risk groups.METHODS One hundred and twenty patients meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly and equally divided into treatment group and control group.The control group was treated by low molecular weight heparin calcium injection,while the treatment group was additionally given Sanqi Huayu Oral Liquid.Two groups' levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α and D-D were detected on pre-operation and the 1 st,3rd,7th after operation,respectively.Additionally,the adverse drug reactions were also observed.RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α and D-D between the two groups before operation.The first day after operation,the levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α and D-D between the two groups showed increasing trends,which had similar elevated levels without statistically significant differences.The third day after operation,the levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α and D-D between the two groups presented downward trends,but those in the treatment group were decreased more markedly with statistically significant differences.Furthermore,the seventh day after operation,the levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α and D-D between the two groups were lower than those before the operation,and these indices in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group with statistically significant differences.CONCLUSION Sanqi Huayu Oral Liquid can not only effectively reduce the levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α and D-D in perioperative period of high-risk groups,but also prevent the formation of deep vein thrombosis.

Objective Heavily calcified left-main coronary diseases (LMCA) remain a formidable challenge for percutaneous interventions (PCI). This study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of using rotational atherectomy (RA) in treating such lesions in actual practice. Methods From February 2004 to March 2012, all consecutive patients who received RA for heavily-calcified LMCA lesions in our cath lab were en-rolled. The relevant clinical and angiographic characteristics at the time of index PCI, as well as the clinical follow-up outcomes, were re-trieved and analyzed. Results A total of 34 consecutive patients were recruited with a mean age 77.2 ± 10.2 years. There were 82.4%pre-sented with acute coronary syndrome and 11.8%with cardiogenic shock. Chronic renal disease and diabetes were seen in 64.7%and 52.9%, respectively. Triple-vessel coronary disease was found in 76.5%of them. The mean SYNTAX score was 50 ± 15 and EuroSCORE II scale 5.6 ± 4.8. The angiographic success rate was 100%with a procedural success rate of 91.2%. The mean number of burrs per patient was 1.7 ± 0.5. Crossing-over stenting was used in 64.7%. Most stents were drug-eluting (67.6%). Intra-aortic ballon pump was used in 20.6%of the procedures. Three patients died during hospitalization, all due to presenting cardiogenic shock. No major complication occurred. Among 31 hospital survivors, the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) rate was 16.1%, all due to target lesion revascularization or target vessel revas-cularization. Conclusions In high-surgical-risk elderly patients, plaque modification with RA in PCI of heavily-calcified LMCA could be safely accomplished with a minimal complication rate and low out-of-hospital MACE.

The mucosal surfaces of the human body are typically colonized by polymicrobial communities, they exist in the gastrointestinal tract, skin, oral cavity, and genitourinary tract, as well as in anatomical sites previously considered sterile, including the lung. These communities interact with the mucosal immune system to maintain homeostasis in health, emphasizing the important role of " second genome" , which is very important to human health. The human lower respiratory tract also harbor many microbes, the imbalance of microbiome composition maybe critically related with many lung disease. Up to date, researches on microbiome of lung caner is still on the first step. Our review mainly describes the characteristic composition of lung microbiome, and the relationship with diseases, especially with lung cancer. We attempts to provide the basis information for further researches about the relationship between human lung microbiome and lung cancer.
