Objective To study the classification, management and outcome of the injury of hamatometacarpal joint. Methods Retrospective analysis was carried out in 17 patients with injury of hamatometacarpal joint. There were 16 males and 1 female aged 19-51 years old. 3 in left hand and 14 in right hand were injuried. The dominant hands of all were right hand. The injury of hamatometacarpal joint might be classified into 4 major groups based on the condition of the hamate, and subdivided into 2 subtypes based on the isolated dislocation(subluxation) or fracture-dislocation of metacarpal base. Carpometacarpal joint ligment injury without fracture of hamatum and the fourth or fifth metacarpal base dislocation without fracture was defined as typeⅠa. When there was a fracture of the fourth or fifth metacarpal base following typeⅠa was defined as typeⅠb. Avulsion fracture of the back of hamatum and the fourth and/or the fifth metacarpal base dislocation without fracture was defined as type Ⅱa. With the fracture of the fourth or fifth metacarpal base following the typeⅡa was defined as type Ⅱb. Splintered fracture of the back of hamatum with the fourth and/or fifth metacarpal base dislocation without fracture was defined as typeⅢa. With the fracture of metacarpal base following typeⅢa was defined as typeⅢb. The split fracture of coronal side of hamatum with the fourth and/or fifth metacarpal base dislocation and without fracture was defined as type Ⅳa. With fracture of the fourth and/or fifth metacarpal base following type Ⅳa was defined as type Ⅳb. There were 7 typeⅠb, 2 typeⅡa, 1 typeⅡb, 2 typeⅢb, 1 typeⅣa, 4 type Ⅳb in our group. We chose conservative or operative treatment according to the type of injury. Results The follow-up was 4-96 months. The patients had fracture union rate of 100%, and no traumatic osteoarthritis was occurred. There was a statistical significance when the motion of two-side joints was compared post surgery. There was no significant difference between bilateral hand in grip strength. Subjective evaluations of the patients were good or excellent. No complications was occurred. There is no case involved in any complications such as traumatic arthrositis, inflammation, neural injuries and adhesion of tendon. Conclusion The stable injury of hamatometacarpal joint should be ideally treated by closed reduction and immobilization in a well-moulded cast or splint. Satisfactory outcome can be got if keeping under strict surveillance. The unstable or intra-articular fracture should be treated by surgery. The outcome is also satisfactory and the rate of the complication of traumatic arthritis is low in short period follow-up. The outcome of fresh injury is much better than old one.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of microRNA-224 and microRNA-378e in colorectal cancer tissues and normal mucosa adjacent to tumor lesions. Methods The gene chip technology was used to detect the different expression of miRNA in colorectal carcinoma tissues and adjacent normal tissues, which was then confirmed by real-time PCR. The relationship between the pathology and clinical data was analyzed. Results The expres-sion level of miR-224 was significantly up-regulated in tumor tissue, while miR-378e was down-regulated in tumor tissue, which was confirmed by real-time PCR. The expression of miR-224 was strongly associated with histological types, while miR-378e was strongly associated with the infiltration depth of colorectal cancer. Conclusion miR-224 is a potent tumor promoter, while miR-378e is a potent tumor suppressor. Both miR-224 and miR-378e can be used as potential colorectal cancer molecular markers.

Objective To observe effects of hydroxyethyl starch(130/0.4,voluven)on tissue perfusion and serum TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8 levels in patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods 60 SAP patients with non-operative treatment were randomly divided into voluven group and Ringer's solution group(n =30 per group).In addition to conventional drugs and treatment,of which voluven group daily 15ml/kg intravenously for 5 d;Ringer's solution group daily 20ml/kg intravenously for 5d.Hemodynamic parameters and tissue perfusion indicators were monitored,TN F-α,IL-6,IL-8 levels were examined after treatment 0,12,24,48,96 hours.Results Compared with Ringer solution group,Voluven group therapy high efficiency,faster raise MAP,ScvO2,Phi value,lower HR,Hct(t =2.785,3.126,4.132,3.168,2.218,all P ＜ 0.05).TNFα,IL-6 after 48h treatment,IL-8 after 96h treatment,both groups were significantly decreased,but the voluven group was significantly lower than Ringer's solution group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Voluven could effectively and quickly maintain hemodynamic stability,improve the hemorheological and tissue perfusion,could be more conducive to improving the pancreatic microcirculation,thus inhibiting inflammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8 release,and had favorable treatment effect on patients with SAP.

Objective To observe the outcomes of the modified multiple nerve transfer s combined with the late hand function reconstruction to restore the active pick-up function of the paralyzed upper extremity in patients with total brachial plexus avulsion injuries (TBPAI).Methods 33 patients suffered with TBPAI firstly underwent multiple nerve transfers,which including accessory nerve transfers to neurotize the suprascapular nerve to recover the shoulder abduction,contralateral C7 (CC7) nerve transfers via the modified pre-spinal route with direct coaptation to restore lower trunk function and the musculocutaneous nerve was also neurotized by the transferred CC7 nerve via a cutaneous nerve graft to restore the function of elbow flexion,as well as the phrenic nerve transfers to neurotize the posterior division of lower trunk to restore the function of elbow and finger extension.The patients with muscle recovery were selected to perform the hand function reconstruction at the second stage for restoring the active pick-up function.The patients were chosen as followcriterias:the degree of shoulder abduction attained 30°or more,the motor power of elbow,wrist,and finger flexion attained grade M4 or more,elbow and finger extension attained M3 or more.The methods of hand function reconstruction included wrist fusion and flexor carpal ulnaris opponensplasty,in addition to palmar capsulodesis of the metacarpophalangeal joint.Results The mean follow up was 41±7.7 (range,36-73 months) after the first procedure of multiple nerve transfers,the muscle strength of elbow and finger and wrist flexion attained M 4 as well as the elbow and finger extension achieved M3 or more in 10 patients,all of 10 patients achieved 40°-80°shoulder abduction.8 out of 10 patients had performed the second surgical procedure for hand functional reconstruction.6 of them had successfully recovered the active pick-up function.Conclusions The newly designed procedure of multiple nerve transfers could effectively restore the function of shoulder abduction,elbow,wrist,and finger flexion,as well as elbows and finger extension in patients with TBPAI,combined with the hand functional reconstruction,active pick-up function could be successfully reconstructed.

This study was aimed to compare the efficacy of gastric banding (GB), Roux en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) and biliopancreatic diversion (BPD) in the treatment of rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Ani-mal models of T2DM were induced by streptozotocin (STZ) injection and high-sugar-fat diets. A total of 70 T2DM rats were randomly allocated into the GB group (G group, n = 20), RYGBP group (R group, n = 20), BPD group ( B group , n = 20 ) , and the sham operation group ( S group , n = 10 ) . The fasting blood glucose ( BG ) , triglyceride ( TG ) , total cholesterol ( TC ) and insulin ( INS ) content were determined before and 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 8 , 16 weeks after operation. The insulin sensitivity index (ISI) was calculated. The mortality and complications were ob-served in each group. The results showed that the fasting weight of the GB group, RYGBP group and BPD group were (324.4 ± 22.5) g, (338.9 ± 17.5) g, (333.3 ± 28.4) g, respectively. The BG content was (12.44 ± 1.29) mmol/L, (9.70 ± 0.81) mmol/L, (11.93 ± 2.39) mmol/L, respectively. The TC content was (2.32 ± 0.45) mmol/L, (2.22 ± 0.79) mmol/L, (2.13 ± 0.31) mmol/L, respectively. The TG content was (1.38 ± 0.32) mmol/L, (1.16± 0.41) mmol/L, (1.23 ± 0.35) mmol/L, respectively. The ISI were (-6.38 ± 0.29), (-6.67 ± 0.24), (-6.65 ±0.23), respectively. And the INS content of the RYGBP group were (69.43 ± 18.73) mU/L. There were signifi-cant differences between before and after operation on the 16th week ( P < 0 . 05 , P < 0 . 01 ) . The mortality rate was 5% in the GB group, 20% in the RYGBP group, and 35% in the BPD group. It was concluded that the GB, RYGBP and BPD are effective in reducing blood glucose and blood lipids in the treatment of rat with T2DM. The treatment effect is obvious in the improvement of insulin resistance ( IR ) .

Objective:To explore the regulatory effect of miR-873-5p micro-RNA targeting voltage-dependent anion channel protein 1 (VDAC1) in neurons and its mechanism.Methods:Murine nerve cells were randomly divided in vitro into a control group, a model group, a mimetic negative carrier (miR-con) group and an miR-873-5p group. The epileptiform hippocampal nerve cell model was induced in all of the cells except those in the control group using magnesium-free medium. The control group was normally cultured, while the miR-con and miR-873-5p groups were transfected with miR control and miR-873-5p RNA respectively. Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reactions were used to detect the expression of miR-873-5p and VDAC1 mRNA. Western blotting was employed to detect VDAC1, B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 protein (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) and cleared caspase-3 in the neurons. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) were measured using the DCFH-DA fluorescent probe, the thiobarbituric acid method and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay respectively. Any apoptosis was detected using flow cytometry, while the targeting of miR-873-5p on VDAC1 was verified using the double fluorescence zymase reporter gene method.Results:Compared with the control group, a significant decrease in the average expression of miR-873-5p, Bcl-2 and in GSH and MDA levels was observed in the model group, but there was a significant increase in the average level of VDAC1, Bax, cleaved caspase-3 and ROS and in the rate of apoptosis. Compared with the miR-con group, a significant decrease in the average expression of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, ROS and in the apoptosis rate was observed in the miR-873-5p group, but there was a significant increase in the average level of Bcl-2, GSH and MDA. Moreover, it was verified that miR-873-5p reduced the expression of VDAC1.Conclusion:miR-873-5p protects damaged neurons by inhibiting their apoptosis through negatively regulating the target gene VDAC1 and the oxidative stress response.

Objective To investigate the effect of intravenous anesthesia with sufentanil combined with propofol on hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism in patients with esophageal cancer under high altitude.Methods 60 patients with esophageal cancer radical surgery was selected from March 2015 to March 2017 in our hospital and were divided into two groups according to the random number table,30 patients in each group.Patients in the control group were given with fentanyl and propofol intravenous anesthesia,and patients in the observation group were given sufentanil combined with propofol anesthesia.The occurrence of restlessness during the recovery of anesthesia in the two groups were observed,the spontaneous breathing recovery time,extubation time and postoperative Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) score were recorded,and the indexes of hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism were measured at the time of before induction of anesthesia (T0),tracheal intubation (T1),skin incision (T2),thoracotomy (T3),free esophagus (T4),esophageal catheter removal time (T5).Results The spontaneous respiration recovery time and extubation time of the observation group were significantly shorter than those of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The degree of restlessness in the observation group was weaker than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Mean arterial pressure (MAP) in the control group at T2-T4 were significantly higher than those in T0 (P ＜ 0.05),but MAP and heart rate (HR) in the observation group at T1-T5 were significantly lower than those of T0 (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with T0 group,oxygen saturation (SpO2),oxygen saturation of mixed venose blood (SvO2) and oxygen delivery (DO2) at T1-T5 were significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.05),oxygen consumption (VO2) at T2-T4 was significantly increased (P ＜ 0.05),especially in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The MMSE scores of the two groups were significantly lower than those before the operation (P ＜ 0.05),and the scores in observation group was significantly higher than the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The intravenous anesthesia with sufentanil combined with propofol is more helpful in maintaining hemodynamic stability and oxygen metabolism balance than intravenous anesthesia with fentanyl combined with propofol and has little effect on postoperative anesthesia recovery and cognitive function.
