Objective To explore the clinical significance of the inferior displacement sign on the initial anterioposterior (AP) view X-ray for fractures of humeral greater tuberosity.Methods This study retrospectively analyzed the imaging and clinical data of 24 patients with isolated fracture of humeral greater tuberosity who had sought medical treatment during the period from January 2008 to June 2015.They were 10 males and 14 females,with an average age of 54 years (from 19 to 68 years).Laterality:8 left sides and 16 right sides.The AP view X-ray films of the 24 patients present the inferior displacement sign defined as the inferior cortical margin of the greater tuberosity overlapping the proximal humeral shaft on the initial AP view.The patients received further CT examination to determine the displacement direction and whether the humeral neck fracture was complicated.Results A slight displacement of humeral anatomic neck fracture was shown on the initial AP view X-ray in 10 patients.Further CT examination revealed that humeral anatomic neck fracture was confirmed in 23 patients,the greater tuberosity was displaced posteriorly in 22 patients and posteroinferiorly in 2 patients.Radiographic measurements showed:the mean posterior displacement was 10.5 ±4.5 mm;the displacement between the humeral head and the humeral shaft was 2.5 ± 1.5 mm;the neck shaft angle was 147.2° ± 9.2°;the distance between the humeral head and greater tuberosity was 10.8 ± 3.4 mm;the overlap between the inferior edge of greater tuberosity and the upper edge of lateral humeral shaft was 12.5±5.9 mm.Pearson correlation analysis showed no correlation between the overlap and the head-tuberosity distance (P > 0.05),but a significant correlation between the overlap and the neck-shaft angle (P < 0.05).Conclusions The inferior displacement sign on the initial AP view X-ray is actually the overlap of posterior displaced greater tuberosity fracture shown on the X-ray.The posterior displaced greater tuberosity fracture complicated with slight displaced anatomic neck fracture is a presentation of the valgus impacted fracture of the proximal humerus.The inferior displacement sign in the fracture of humeral greater tuberosity can highly suggest the presence of occult or slight displacement of the humeral anatomic neck fracture.

Objective To investigate the effect of cobalt chromium alloy onlay on the direct repair of cracked vital pulp teeth with the resin compostie filling and porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM ) crown repair as the control .Methods 201 cracked vital pulp teeth from 201 cases were randomly divided into 3 groups according to the clinical symptoms :mild discomfort at occlusion (group A) ,pain at occlusion accompanied with transient pain to cold or hot stimulation (group B) and pain at occlusion accompanied with continuous pain to cold or hot stimulation(group C) .The cracked teeth directly were restored by the resin composite filling ,cobalt chromium alloy onlay and PFM crown repair and the effective rate in each group was observed after 2-year follow up .Results The effective rate of the group A ,B and C were statistically significant different from each other (P<0 .05) .The effective rate of the co-balt chromium alloy onlay and the PFM crown was statistically significant higher than that of resin composite (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The direct repair with cobalt chromium alloy onlay is an effective repair method for the cracked vital pulp teeth with mild discomfort at occlusion and mild pain accompanied with transient pain to cold or hot stimulation .
4.Research advance of brain natriuretic peptide in the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric cardiovascular disease
Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2013;(7):679-682
Brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) is a cardiac hormone mainly secreted by myocytes in the ventricular wall. It has strong action of natriuresis, diuresis, vasodilation, inhibition of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and sympathetic nervous system. The increased levels of BNP and NT-proBNP have been reported in children’s cardiovascular diseases in numerous stu-dies and can reflect cardiac function. This article simply reviews the BNP and NT-proBNP about its biology character, detection method, medical reference range and its progress in pediatric cardiovascular disease.
5.Expression and clinical significance of HA117 in adults with acute leukemia
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(8):636-639
Objective To investigate the expression of HA117 in bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNCs) of acute leukemia patients, and its correlation with multidrug resistance( MDR), as well as its correlation with antigens presentation and its clinical significance. Methods HA117 gene expressions in 36 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 14 patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL),10 patients with idiopathic thromnocytopenic purpura (ITP) were tested by using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique. Thirty bone marrow specimens of AML patients at different phase were selected, and immunophenotypes were assayed by flow cytometry. ResultsThere was no significant difference ( P > 0.05 ) in HA117 gene expression between ALL (78.57%) and A ML (72.22%). The expressions of HA117 gene in both ALL and AML were significantly higher than in ITP patients ( P < 0.05 ). The HA117 gene was expressed in 75.00% of the initially diagnosed patients and 77.78% of the remission patients and 69.23% of the nonremission patients, all of them had higher expression than the patients with ITP, but there was no significant difference among the three groups. There were 47.06% and 87.88% with HA117 gene expressioned in non-resistance group and resistance group respectively, and the difference between the two groups was significant(P=0.005). HA117 had positively correlation with CD11b(OR =0.59, P=0. 001 ),CD33(OR=0.704, P=0. 000) expression in 30 patients of AML, and had negative correlation with MPO (OR=-0.611, P=0.001). ConclusionHA117 gene overexpression is significantly associated with the clinical resistance. It may also be associated with MDR of acute leukemia. HA117 gene can be used as an important indicator for investigating clinical MDR and predicting prognosis of acute Ieukemia patients. HA1 17 is closely related to CD11b, CD33, MPO expression in AML, and they can be used as biomarkers for evaluating therapy efficacy in AML.
