BACKGROUND:Through compounding hydroxyapatite and poly-DL-lactide, the mechanical properties, physical and chemical properties of the implants can be enhanced.
OBJECTIVE:To detect the effect of hydroxyapatite/poly-DL-lactide composite internal fixation screws in canine femoral condyle cancel ous bone fracture repair.
METHODS:Forty-two beagle dogs were operated to bilateral femoral condyle fracture models. The left side was fixed using hydroxyapatite/poly-DL-lactide screws as experimental group;while the right side was fixed with pure poly-DL-lactide screws as control group. After 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks, conditions of fracture were observed using X-ray, femoral and screw specimens were observed histopathological y, and the bending strength and the average molecular weight were detected. The biological absorption rate, intensity decay rate and biodegradation rate were calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 2-48 weeks, bilateral fractures were fixed wel and new bone grew wel , but the biological absorption rate of the screws in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (P ≤0.01). In the first 2, 4 weeks, the bending strength of the experimental screws was higher than that of the control screw (P ≤0.05), but the biodegradable speed was slower in the former one (P ≤ 0.05 or P ≤ 0.01). The pathological changes were similar in the two groups. After 48 weeks, the fractures were healed and bone tissue reconstruction was completed. Compared with the pure poly-DL-lactide screws, the hydroxyapatite/poly-DL-lactide composite internal fixation screws have better fixation effects, biocompatibility, mechanical properties and biodegradability.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate effectiveness and safety of rh-endostatin in the treatment of keloid.METHODS:Sixty-four keloid patients in Nanchong Central Hospital during Jan.2015-Jan:2016 were divided into observation group and control group by random number table,with 32 cases in each group.Both group received fractional CO2 laser treatment.After surgery,control group was given antioxidant drug and antibiotics routinely.Observation group was additionally given Rh-endostatin injection 0.1-0.2 mg/cm2 via keloid body,once a month,for twice,on the basis of control group.Clinical efficacy,symptom score after laser treatment and 2 months after laser treatment,wound healing time,wound pigmentation area and keloid area before and after treatment,the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups.RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in total re sponse rate (93.75％ vs.87.50％) and the incidence of ADR (15.63％ vs.12.50％) between observation group and control group (P＞0.05).There was no statistical significance in symptom score of control group between after laser treatment and after 2 months of treatment (P＞0.05).The erythema,edema and pigmentation scores of observation group were significantly lower than before treatment and control group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05);there was no statistical significance in skin itching and burning sensation score between 2 groups (P＞0.05).The wound incrustation time,decrustation time and wound healing time of observation group were significantly shorter than those of control group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).Pigmentation area and keloid area of 2 groups were significantly smaller than before,and the observation group was significantly smaller than the control group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Rh-endostatin can alleviate erythema,edema,pigmenta tion and other symptoms effectively,shorten healing time,and inhibit pigmentation and keloid regeneration effectively with good safety.

Objective:To discuss the level changes and significance of IL-2,IFN-γ,TNF-α in patients with bladder cancer.Methods:66 patients with bladder cancer who were treated in our hospital from February 2015 to December 2016 were enrolled in this study,which was denoted by bladder cancer group,65 patients with cystitis glandularis who were treated in our hospital during the same period were selected as cystitis group,another 65 healthy persons who were examined in our hospital during the same period were selected as control group,and compared the levels of IL-2,IFN-γ and TNF-α in each group,and the levels of IL-2,IFN-γand TNF-α in patients with bladder cancer of different types and clinical stages.The correlation of IL-2,IFN-γ and TNF-α levels with pathological types and clinical stages were analyzed.Results:The levels ofIL-2 and INF-γ in bladder cancer group were significantly lower than those in cystitis group and control group,the level of TNF-α was significantly higher than that of cystitis group and control group,the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in IL-2,IFN-γ and TNF-α levels in different types of bladder cancer patients (both P＞0.05).IL-2,IFN-γ levels in T2 to T4 bladder cancer patients were significantly lower than Tis to T1,TNF-α level was significantly higher than Tis to T1,the difference was statistically significant (both P＜0.05).According to Spearman method evaluation correlation founded that IL-2,IFN-γlevels in patients with bladder cancer were negatively correlated with clinical stage,TNF-α level was positively correlated with clinical stage.However,there was no correlation between IL-2,IFN-γ and TNF-α levels in patients with pathological type.Conclusion:IL-2,IFN-γ expression in bladder cancer patients are decreased significantly,while TNF-α expression is increased significantly,and the above three indexes of patients are related to clinical stage,but not related to pathological type.

AIM: To evaluate the prophylactic effect of aminophylline on the pulmonary hypertension rebound reaction to exposure to NO in the hypoxic pigs. METHODS: The 10 pigs undergone Swan-Ganz catheter, the mPAP was measured with a Physio-recording instrument and PaO 2 was measured with a blood gas analyzer, when breathing NO for 30 minutes and suddenly stopping breathing NO, administing aminophylline 0.25 g, followed by 30 minutes with room air. The respiratory rate and heart rate were also monitorried with a Hewlett-Packard portable monitor. RESULTS: The mPAP of the acute hypoxic pig was induced significantly after breathing 10 -5 NO. When suddenly stopping breathing NO, the induced mPAP became more and more high, the level of the mPAP in 5 minutes was similar to the values before absorbing NO, the mPAP in 10 minutes was higher than values before absorbing NO, while the level of PaO 2 was lower than the values before absorbing NO; but suddenly stopping breathing NO, administing aminophylline, although the induced mPAP became high, the speed was slower than the controls, the level of the mPAP in 30 minutes still was lower than the values before absorbing NO. CONCLUSION: Aminophylline has preventive effects on the pulmonary hypertension rebound reaction to exposure to NO in the hypoxic pigs.

Objective: To sum up the repair techniques of secondary alar deformity after the first phase reconstruction of alar defect. Methods: From January 2010 to December 2017, 17 patients with secondary alar deformity were included. Secondary alar deformities after the first stage reconstruction of alar defect included the abnormalities of alar groove line, absence of alar-cheek groove and the notch of alar rim. Z-plasty, V-Y advanced flaps, local skin flap and other technologies were introduced to repair details. Results: Infection was found in one case of the reconstruction of the alar-cheek groove and the wound was healed by treatment. There was no necrosis occurred in other flap. The shape of the alar was satisfactory and the anterior nostril was not narrow. Patients were followed up for 1 month to 1 year. The average follow-up time was 5 months. No recurrence of nasal alar tumor was found. The patients were satisfied with the appearance. Conclusions The symmetrical and satisfactory nasal shape can be obtained with local flaps such as Z-plasty, V-Y advancement of flaps for secondary alar deformities.

Objective To examine the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of behavioral regulation in sport questionnaire (BRSQ) among a sample of Chinese collegiate athletes.Methods The BRSQ was translated from English into Chinese using the translation and back translation approach.A sample of 334 Chinese collegiate athletes was invited to complete the questionnaire.Confirmatory factor analysis(CFA)and exploratory structure equation model(ESEM)approaches were used to examine the factor structure of the BRSQ.Moreover,the internal consistency reliability and nomological validity were examined.Results CFA results suggested that the 6-factor model(BRSQ-6)outperformed other measurement models.However,given the limitations of CFA approach in examining the factor structure of multidimensional instrument,ESEM was also used in this study because it could better present the underlying factor structure of the multidimensional scale.It was found that,as expected,the ESEM solution was better than CFA solution in representing the BRSQ-6 measurement model.The normological validity and internal consistency reliability of all BRSQ-6 subscales were also found acceptable.Conclusion In general,the BRSQ-6 Chinese version demonstrated satisfactory validity and reliability among Chinese collegiate athletes.It is noteworthy that unexpected cross-loading of some items have been identified,which implys that researchers should use the instrument with cautions.Future studies should be conducted to revise the problematic items.

Objective:To explore the effect of the principle of tissue gradient difference in repairing the over wide eyelid fold after double eyelid operation by incision.Methods:From July 2019 to July 2020, we applied the principle of tissue gradient difference to 30 cases (a total of 60 eyes; age ranging 20-35 years with mean 30) of female patients with excessively wide eyelids after incision double eyelid surgery needing a repair. All cases were from the Plastic Surgery Department of Sichuan Provincial People＇s Hospital. The difference in tissue gradient was manifested as the difference in thickness, texture and tension of soft tissues such as the skin above and below the double eyelid line and the orbicularis oculi muscle.Results:Satisfactory evaluation results showed in a total of 30 patients with 60 eyes, 95.0% ( n=57) were satisfied, and 5.0% ( n=3) were dissatisfied. Two of the patients received the second repair due to the inconsistency of the double eyelid width after correction. One patient obtained satisfactory double eyelid morphology after the second repair, and the other patient obtained satisfactory double eyelid morphology after the third repair. Evaluation results of double eyelid morphology showed that it obeyed a normal distribution by analyzing the difference between preoperative and postoperative double eyelid morphology scores. The results of paired t test showed that the double eyelid morphology was significantly improved 6 months after operation compared with preoperative, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=15.86, P<0.01). Conclusions:The principle of tissue gradient difference guides the repair of double eyelid width that is simple and easy, the effect is good, and it is worth applying.
