[Objective]To evaluate the therapeutic effect of treating AO type C fracture of the distal radius with open reduction LCP plate internal fixation.[Method]From Jan.2004 to Jan.2007,37 cases of AO type C fractures of the distal radius were treated with LCP plate internal fixation.All cases were fixated through volar approach,the length of radius,waist joint angle were recovered,screwed the plate,the exposure of dorsal soft tissues could be obtained by internal-rotate radius,allo-bone graft,and aoto-bone graft was necessary for the case with bone defect.Passive wrist motion,active finger motion and forearm rotation were encouraged immediately after surgery.Active wrist motion was suggested seven days postoperatively.[Result]The 37 cases were followed up for 8 to 21 months,with an average time of 11 months.X-ray pictures showed that one-stage union was achieved in the patients,with a mean healing time of eight weeks.No such complications were found as infection,non-union,loosing of nails,carpal tunnel syndrome or medium neuritis.Their clinical outcomes were evaluated according to modified McBride grading system.Twenty-five were rated as being excellent,eight as good and four as fair,with their good-excellent rate as being 89.18%.[Conclusion]Treatment of type C distal radius fracture with LCP plate internal fixation has many advantages,such satisfactory reduction,rigid fixation,and excellent function.

Neck shoulder pain or lumbocrural pain caused by intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) could seriously affect the qualities life of patients. Current treatments mainly focus on alleviating pain and the symptoms of nerve compression, which could not radically stop the process of intervertebral disc degeneration, but conversely lead to high recurrence rate. In recent years, scholars have turned to study the biological treatment for repair and rebuild the intervertebral disc by biological molecular therapy, gene therapy, cell therapy and tissue engineering to solve the problem of intervertebral disc degeneration, while most of the above methods are still in animal experiments or in vitro experiments and the clinical application is still a long way to go.

Objective To study the clinical significance of P - selection expression in children with viral encephalitis and the correlation between this expression and the cerebral infarction with critical viral encephalitis. Methods Flow cytometric was employed to detect the expression of P- selection on the surface of platelet membrane in 44 children with viral encephalitis(20 light patients and 24 critical patients) and 20 healthy control children. The area of the cerebral infarction was determined by computed tomographic scan in 20 patients with critical viral encephalitis. The correlation between the two variables was analyzed. Results The expressions of P - selection on the surface of platelet membrane on less than 5 days and on 2 weeks after the onset of viral encephalitis were significantly higher in critical patients than those in normal control children and light patients( P

Objective To investigate the roles of adrenomedullin(ADM) and endothelin-1(ET-1) in left-to-right shunt congenital heart disease(CHD) complicated with congestive heart failure(CHF).Methods Plasma ADM and ET-1 concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay in heart failure stage and recovery period of 18 infants with left-to-right shunt CHD.Also 20 healthy infants acted as control group were measured.Results Plasma concentrations of ADM and EF-1 were significantly higher in heart failure stage of left-to-right CHD infants than those in their recovery period,and both in their heart failure stage and in their recovery period were higher than that in control group(P

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is one of the most common non-Hodgkin lymphomaaccounting for 30 %-40 %. The most common first-line therapy for DLBCL is rituximab in combination withchemotherapy. About two thirds of patients treated by the first-line therapy achieve a complete remission (CR)and are cured finally, but nearly one third of patients can not reach CR after frontline treatment appearingrefractory or relapse early, especially for the high risk patients or cases with MYC alterations, the regimenimproving the long-term survival is not much. In the 57th American Society of Hematology (ASH) annualmeeting, a plenty of treatment as focus on these patients brought in encouraging results, which makes itpossible to further improve the CR rate. The progresses on DLBCL of relapse and refractory, high risk andspecial types were summarized in this paper based on the reports in the 57th ASH annual meeting.

Objective To estimate the expression of ER and PR in the endometrium of both intrauterine adhesions (IUA) and non-IUA specimens. Methods The endometrium specimens from patients undergoing hysteroscopy for confirmed moderate IUA (n=20: 10 in proliferative phase, and 10 in secretory phase) were enrolled as the IUA group in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from October 2014 to August 2015. The specimens scheduled for hysteroscopy due to infertility were recruited into the control group (n=26: 13 in proliferative phase, and 13 in secretory phase). Immunohistochemistry and quantificational real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) were used to detect the expression of ER-α, ER-β and PR in endometrium with different menstrual period in both groups. Results (1) Location: in both groups, the expression of ER-α, ER-β and PR appeared in the endometrial glandular epithelial cells and the stromal cells of the endometrium. The positive brown granules of ER-α, ER-β and PR appeared mainly in cell nucleus. (2) ER-α and ER-β in the endometrium:the protein expression of ER-α and ER-β in IUA group (proliferative phase: 0.657 ± 0.028, 0.493 ± 0.023; secretory phase: 0.537 ± 0.020, 0.365 ± 0.031) were significantly higher than those of control group (proliferative phase: 0.586 ± 0.025, 0.437 ± 0.022; secretory phase:0.459 ± 0.025, 0.323 ± 0.017;all P<0.01). And the ER-αand ER-βmRNA expressions in IUA group were 2.524 ± 0.296, 1.947 ± 0.339, higher than those of control group in the proliferative phase (all P<0.01), and in the secretory phase (1.977±0.333, 1.345±0.292) were also higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01). (3) PR in the endometrium: the protein expression of PR was not significantly different between IUA group (proliferative phase:0.248±0.025, secretory phase:0.194±0.024) and control group (proliferative phase: 0.234 ± 0.019, secretory phase: 0.186 ± 0.020; P=0.162, 0.359). Meanwhile, there were no statistical differences in the mRNA expression of PR in both groups with different menstrual period (proliferative phase: 1.144 ± 0.384 versus 0.981 ± 0.306, secretory phase: 0.763 ± 0.237 versus 0.631 ± 0.203; P=0.270, 0.166). (4) ER and PR expression in menstrual cycles: the expression of ER-α, ER-β and PR in the IUA group changed with the menstrual cycles, and their expression in the proliferative phase were higher than those in the secretory phase (all P<0.05). Conclusions The expression of ER-α and ER-β in the endometrium of IUA patients changes with menstrual cycle, and are higher compared with those in normal endometrium. No difference is found in the PR expression between the two groups.
