Objective To explore the necessity of inferior vena cava(IVC) filter implantation during catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) for acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Method Ninety-three patients with acute DVT were reviewed from Nov. 2006 to Dec. 2008. There were 35 men and 58 women, age averaging at (60 ±29) year old, treated with CDT followed by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty ( PTA). The course of DVT was from 5 h ～ 15 d (6. 28 ±7.08) d with 80 left lower limbs and 13 right lower limbs involved. Results There were 30 patients with prior IVC filter implanted compared with 63 patients without filters (67. 7% ,63/93). Among the patients without filter, there were 93. 6% (59/63) left lower limbs. DSA was redone after thrombolysis. Seventy-seven iliacfemoral thrombosis was resolved completely and stenosis or occlusion of the iliac vein were found in 90. 9% (70/77) cases. Endovascular treatment was performed in 57 patients. There was no patients suffering from symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE). PE was found in 3 cases with a filter and 1 case without filter was suspected of PE on pulmonary CTA after treatment. Conclusion It is not necessary to routinely place an IVC filter during CDT for treating DVT on left lower limb when the thrombosis is not involing the IVC.

Orange peel was used as lowcost adsorbent in binding of Methylene Blue.The effects of equilibrium time,pH,dye concentration have been studied.Carboxyl,amine and phosphonate functional groups were present in the orange peel.The equilibrium time was 1 hour,the maximum adsorption capacities of the orange peel was 370.3?31.0 mg/g at pH 10.The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were well fitted in this biosorption system.Results showed relatively higher rate constant and biosorption capacities.These adsorption performance indicate the orange peel as a potentially economical adsorbent for dye removal.

Objective To explore the strategy of repairing penile defect after necrosis caused by shortwave diathermy.Methods Between January 2004 and June 2012,18 cases with penile defect after necrosis caused by shortwave diathermy were admitted in our hospital.The age of those patients ranged from 18 to 55 years old (mean 34 years old).Among them,15 cases have been married.All patients have the history of penile shortwave diathermy therapy after surgery.After debridement,penile complete defect was found in 6 cases,incomplete defect was found in 10 cases and corpus cavernosum and corpus spongiosum partly defect was found in 2 cases.Under general anesthesia,we applied penis extent in 10 cases with incomplete defect,forearm free flap in 2 cases with penile complete defect,abdominal artery perforators flap in other 4 cases with penile complete defect.In 2 cases with corpus cavernosum and corpus spongiosum partly defect,the scrotal septal skin flap and fascia pedicle flap was used for 1-stage urethral reconstruction and costicartilage was implanted for 2-stage cavernosum reconstruction.Results 18 patients were followed up for 0.5-10.0 years (mean 2.3 years).16 cases with penile complete defect or incomplete defect had normal length after operation,ranged from 6.3 to 9.2cm.During erectile phase,the length of their penis ranged from 8.7 to 11.5 cm.No feeling abnormality or erectile dysfunction was complained.All patients exhibited the excellent morphology and felling of penis with minor scar in donor site.Early (half a month) complications included distant flap necrosis in 1 case and disruption of the wound in 1 case,which were cured after debridement and conventional treatment.After one year,we did not see the flap atrophy.One case had tumid which influenced penile beautiful and sexual intercourse.It was improved by local liposuction.One month after surgery,two patients with corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum partial defect had normal voiding.No feeling and erectile dysfunction were complained during the following-up.Conclusions According to the characteristics of the penile defect due to the shortwave diathermy,selecting the optimal skin flap and individual repair strategy are the keys to successful treatment.

Objective To investigate the correlation of possible risk factors with acute renal injury (AKI) after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) and explore if the incidence of AKI could be lower by off-pump CABG for kidney protection.Methods Two hundred and nine patients who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery in Nanjing First Hospital from September 2010 to November 2013 were recruited.The patients were divided into AKI group (fifty-five cases) and non-AKI group (one hundred and fifty-four cases) according to the AKI criteria and compared the possible risk factors between two the groups by univariate analysis and multivariate analysis.Results The index of female gender,body mass index,age,hypertension,basic serum creatinine,ejection fraction,the number of coronary atherosclerosis,cardiopulmonary bypass,IABP for circulatory support,postoperative low cardiac output,lactate in AKI group were higher than that in non-AKI group by univariate analysis (P ＜ 0.05).And basic serum creatinine,ejection fraction,cardiopulmonary bypass,postoperative low cardiac output showed a significantly statistical difference between two group by multivariate analysis.Conclusions Cardiopulmonary bypass,basic serum creatinine,ejection fraction,postoperative low cardiac output were independent risk factors.Off-pump CABG could benefit for kidney protection.

Objective To investigate the influence of the two-dimension computer-aided surgery navigation system to the concordance of lumbar spine pedicle screw fixation on both sides.Methods 1355 patients were undergone lumbar spinal pedicle screw fixation during January 2004 to December 2009.All patients were divided into tow groups:the navigation group (743cases) and the fluoroscopy assistant group (612 cases).All patients got standard A-P and lateral X-ray plate of lumbar spine within seven days after surgery.The X-ray images were analyzed by the software of Image-pro plus 5.0 to evaluate the concordance of lumbar spine pedicle screw fixation on both sides.The angle between axial line of pedicle screw and superior lamina terminals (α angle) and the angle between axial lines of pedicle screw on both sides (γangle) were measured.The position of the pedicle screw was checked weather it was in the lumbar pedicle partially.Results There were no significant differences (P＞0.05) between the α angle on both sides of L1-S5 vertebral body in navigation assistant group (L:3.89°±0.47°,R:3.94°±0.37°).The differences of the α angle on both sides of L2 (L:4.55°±1.27°,R:5.12°±1.87°) and L4 (L:4.22°±1.89°,R:6.62°±1.97°) vertebral body in the fluoroscopy assistant group had statistical significance (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences between the α angle on both sides of other bodies (L:4.32°±1.47°,R:4.37°±1.59°,P＞0.05).The γangle in navigation assistant group (2.32°± 0.27°) was obviously smaller than fluoroscopy assistant group (3.32°±1.51°),the differences had statistical significance (P＜0.05).Accuracy of pedicle screw in navigation assistant group was 91.5％ (3604/3938).Accuracy of pedicle screw in fluoroscopy assistant group was 87.6％ (2426/2768).The difference in accuracy of pedicle screw in both groups had statistical significance (x2=26.913,P＜0.0001).Conclusion The accuracy of pedicle screw and the concordance of pedicle screw on both sides can be significantly improved using the two-dimension perspective computer-aided surgery navigation system.

ObjectiveTo investigate glutathione S-transferase GSTO 1 Glu155△Glu genetic polymorphism and risks of arsenic poisoning caused by coal-burning in Guizhou.Methods GSTO1 Glu155 △Glu gene polymorphism was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-with confronting two-pair primers among one hundred and thirty arsenic poisoning patients and one hundred and thirty healthy controls.The results were verified by DNA sequencing.The association between different genotypes and arsenic poisoning was analyzed by unconditional Logistic regression model.ResultsThe results of Glu/Glu and Glu/△Glu genotype detected by this method were consistent with those of DNA sequencing.The frequencies of GSTO1 Glu/Glu genotype and Glu/△Glu genotype were 94.85％(92/97) and 5.15％(5/97) in the patients,99.15％(117/118) and 0.85％(1/118) in the controls,respectively.The difference was statistically significant(x2 =3.896,P ＜ 0.05).△Glu/△Glu genotype was not found in both patients and controls.After age and sex adjusting,GSTO1 Glu155 △Glu polymorphism was found to be a risk factor of arsenic poisoning [odds ratio (OR) =1.85,95％ confidence interval (CI):1.39 - 17.48].ConclusionsThe study finds that GSTO1 Glu 155 △ Glu polymorphism is associated with risk of arsenic poisoning.The relationship between them should be further studied through increasing sample size.

BACKGROUND:In order to overcome the shortcomings of single materials, antibiotics-loaded hydroxyapatite/titanium composites have attracted people’s attentions.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the biocompatibility of vancomycin/hydroxyapatite/titanium nanotubes.
METHODS:Mouse osteoblasts, MC-3T3-E1, were co-cultured with titanium (Cp-T), TiO2nanotubes, and vancomycin/hydroxyapatite/titanium nanotubes, respectively. Cel morphology and growth were observed after 1, 3 and 5 days of co-culture under inverted microscope and scanning electron microscope. The cel proliferation was detected by AO-EB method. The total protein, calcium and alkaline phosphatase levels were detected at 7 and 14 days of co-culture.
RESULTSAND CONCLUSION:The MC-3T3-E1 cels with good viability and morphology adhered wel on the surface of vancomycin/hydroxyapatite/titanium nanotubes compared with those on the surface of pure titanium and TiO2nanotubes under the scanning electron miscroscope. Moreover, there were a large amount of pseudopodia on the surface of composite nanotubes. Compared with the other two groups, the cel number on the surface and the levels of intracelular calcium and alkaline phosphatase were al higher in the vancomycin/hydroxyapatite/titanium nanotubes group. These findings suggest that the vancomycin/hydroxyapatite/titanium nanotubes have good biocompatibility and no cytotoxicity.
