BACKGROUND: Compared with artificial intervertebral disc replacement,prothetic nucleus replacement is easier to perform with fewer risks and requiting smaller incision.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of prosthetic disc nucleus replacement for treatment of lumbar disc herniation.DESIGN: A self-controlled trial.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-three patients including 21 male and 12 female patients with lumbar disc herniation received prosthetic disc nucleus replacement in Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University from January 2002 to October 2003.METHODS: All the patients received prosthetic lumbar nucleus replacement and 3 weeks after the operation, X-ray examination was performed for observing the height and morphology of the intervertebral space. All the patients were followed up for 8 months and the therapeutic effects were assessed in a four-grade system(excellent, good, improved, poor). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The change in the symptoms of low-back pain and the range of movement (ROM) of the lumbar spine.RESULTS: According to the intention-to-treat analysis, none of the 33 patients was lost to the analysis. During the follow-up, 29 patients had excellent, 3 good, and 1 poor outcome in terms of the symptoms of low-back pain and ROM of the lumbar spine, with a total rate of good outcome of 96. 97%(32/33) . X-ray examination in the 3rd month revealed normal size of the intervertebral space in 29 cases, and increased but still narrowed intervertebral space in 3 cases. No aggravation of retrograde changes was found in the adjacent segments.CONCLUSION: Prosthetic disc nucleus replacement can effectively relieve low-back pain in lumbar disc herniation, restore the spinal movement and decrease retrograde changes of adjacent intervertebral space and articular process.

Objective To find a indicator in urine to assist diagnosis of cerebral infarction,we investigated the changes of urine ferritin in patients with cerebral infarction.Methods Collected serum from 30 healthy volunteers and 53 patients with cerebral infarction(CI),with ratio of males to females 19∶11 vs.30∶ 23,and average age was (56 ± 11) vs.(63 ± 11) respectively.Collected urine from 39 heathy volunteers and 33 patients with CI,with ratio of males to females 25∶14 vs.20∶ 13,and average age was (57 ± 10) vs.(64 ± 11) respectively.Ferritin concentration in all samples was detected with the chemical luminescence method,and the urine ferritin/urine cretinin (uFer/uCr) ratio was calculated.Differences of serum ferritin and uFer/uCr between healthy volunteers and CI patients were analyzed with the statistical software under Wilcoxon test.Urinary proteins were extracted with absolute ethanol.The extracted ferritin was displayed with Western blot for light chains and heavy chains to investigate the difference between healthy volunteers and CI patients.Results uFer/uCr was higher than that from healthy volunteers (U =292.00,P ＜0.05),and the median was (14.86 vs.6.22) μg/g.Moreover,after extraction of urinary proteins with alcohol,both light chains and heavy chains of ferritin in urine from CI patients were much more obvious than that from healthy volunteers.Conclusion The uFer/uCr ratio could provide a new proof to assist the diagnosis of cerebral infarction.

285 cases of maternal deaths in Xian area from1980～1990 were reported. The average maternalmortality in urban and rural areas were 16. 3/100000 and 73. 8/100000 respectively, a differenceof 4. 5 times. The main cause of maternal deathwas obstetrical hemorrhage (49. 8%), the nextwere pregnacy indced hypertension and cardiac dis-eases. Of the 285 cases,36. 8% had no antenatalcare. In urban areas maternal death occarred all inhospitals, but in the rural areas 39. 2% happenedat home or on the way to hospitals. Positive. sug-gestions were given according to the major influ-ence factors on safe motherhood.

Objective To investigate the roles of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) signaling pathway and its regulatory protein peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR γ) and phosphatase and tension homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) in regulating insulin sensitivity in rats with fetal growth restriction (FGR).Methods Sixteen pregnant rats were randomly divided into two groups including FGR and control groups on the 12th day of pregnancy (eight in each group).The FGR group was given low protein diet (8％ of casein) and restriction diet to establish the neonatal rat model of FGR.All maternal rats after delivery and newborn rats after weaning on 21 days after born were fed with normal diet.Each time blood samples were collected from eight newborn rats of each group to measure levels of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and fasting insulin(FINS) at the time points of 21 days,two and four months after birth.Then insulin resistance index (IRI) and insulin sensitivity index (ISI) were calculated to evaluate insulin sensitivity.Expression of PI3K,AKT,PPAR γγ,PTEN and glucose transporters 4 (GLUT4) in skeletal muscle at mRNA and protein levels were measured at 21 days,two and four months after birth with real time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction and Western blot,respectively.Relationships between the expression of key molecules of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and insulin sensitivity were analyzed.T-test,and Pearson's correlation analysis were used for statistical analysis.Results (1) The average birth weight of newborn rats in the FGR group was lower than that of the control group [(4.37± 0.69) vs (7.03±0.55) g,t=-20.75,P＜0.05].The incidence of FGR in the FGR group was 93.33％ (70/75).(2) Compared with normal offspring,those in the FGR group showed significantly increased FPG [two months after birth:(5.53± 0.58) vs (7.49 ± 0.38) mmol/L,t=8.08;four months afterbirth:(6.35±0.66) vs (8.94±0.90) mmol/L,t=6.58],FINS [two months afterbirth:(9.18±0.66) vs (14.67± 1.90) mU/L,t=7.71;four months after birth:(33.08±2.76) vs (56.33±2.81) mU/L,t=16.71] and IR1 (two months after birth:2.25±0.31 vs 4.90±0.81,t=8.63;four months after birth:9.30±0.90 vs 22.44±3.10,t=1 1.51),but decreased ISI (two months after birth:0.020 ± 0.002 vs 0.009± 0.001,t=-10.1 4;four months after birth:0.005±0.000 vs 0.002 ±0.000,t=-14.91) at two and four months after birth (all P＜0.05).(3) Compared with normal offspring,those in the FGR group showed decreased expression of PI3K (21 days after birth:0.082±0.028 vs 0.019±0.004,t=-6.29;two months after birth:0.020±0.003 vs 0.010±0.005,t=-4.78;four months after birth:0.014±0.004 vs 0.003±0.001,t=-7.87) and GLUT4 (21 days after birth:0.132±0.057 vs 0.041 ±0.019,t=-4.32;two months after birth:0.183±0.084 vs 0.069±0.017,t=-3.74;four months after birth:0.248±0.069 vs 0.113±0.040,t=-4.74) at mRNA level at 21 days,two and four months after birth (all P＜0.05).Compared with normal offspring,decreased expression of PPAR γ (two months after birth:0.028±0.002 vs 0.012±0.005,t=-3.70;four months after birth:0.030±0.008 vs 0.012±0.005,t=-3.80) and increased expression of PTEN (two months after birth:0.020±0.004 vs 0.045±0.014,t=5.09;four months after birth:0.023±0.007 vs 0.034±0.009,t=2.57) at mRNA level were observed in offspring of the FGR group at two and four months after birth (all P＜0.05).(4) Compared with normal offspring,expression of PI3K protein (21 days after birth:0.22±0.01 vs 0.17±0.02,t=-6.62;two months after birth:0.27±0.03 vs 0.16±0.02,t=-7.25;four months after birth:0.18±0.01 vs 0.09±0.02,t=-9.79) and GLUT4 protein (21 days after birth:0.21 ±0.01 vs 0.03±0.01,t=-27.29;two months after birth:0.10±0.01 vs 0.06t±0.01,t=-3.90;four months after birth:0.13 ±0.01 vs 0.08± 0.02,t=-8.10) decreased in offspring in the FGR group at 21 days,two and four months after birth (all P＜0.05).Compared with normal offspring,those in the FGR group showed decreased expression of PPAR γ protein (two months after birth:0.10 ± 0.01 vs 0.07± 0.01,t =-7.29;four months after birth:0.09±0.01 vs 0.08±0.01,t=-2.83),but increased expression of PTEN at protein level (two months after birth:0.10±0.01 vs 0.15±0.02,t=6.01;four months after birth:0.09±±0.01 vs 0.13±0.02,t=5.51) at two and four months after birth (all P＜0.05).(5) The IRI levels in offsprings in the FGR group were negatively correlated with the expression of PI3K,GLUT4 and PPAR γ at protein level (two months after birth:r=-0.90,-0.92 and-0.79;four months after birth:r=-0.92,-0.75 and-0.73,all P＜0.05),but positively correlated with the expression of PTEN at protein level (r=0.87 and 0.86,both P＜0.05) at two and four months after birth.Conclusions The abnormal expression of the key molecules of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway precedes the decrease of insulin sensitivity in newborn rats with FGR and the expression regulatory protein PPAR γ and PTEN are also changed,suggesting that these molecules may induce the impairment of insulin sensitivity in rats with FGR and be involved in the development of insulin resistance.

Objective:To explore the hepatocyte insulin sensitivity of intrauterine growth retardation ( IUGR) rats and establish an insulin resistance cell model in vitro.Methods: An IUGR animal model was established by protein malnutrition during the mother pregnancy .On 60 d and 90 d after birth , the offspring rats were fasted for 12 hours and then their angular vein blood was collected to measure the fasting plasma glucose and fasting serum insulin level , then the insulin resistance index ( HOMA-IR) and insulin sensitivity index ( ISI) were calculated .The insulin sensitivity was evaluated by HOMA-IR and ISI.Primary hepatocytes from each group were respectively isolated by two-step perfusion with collage-nase and were defined as normal hepatocytes group and IUGR hepatocytes group .The normal hepatocyte group was divided into two groups: control group and insulin induction group .Insulin induction group was established by primary cultures of normal hepatocyte incubated with varying dilutions of insulin . CCK-8 was used to detect the viability of the cultured hepatocytes .Glucose oxidase-peroxidase method kit was used to measure glucose consumption of the hepatocytes .Results:HOMA-IR was significantly higher in IUGR rats than in the normal rats at the age of 60 days ( t=-17 .02 , P<0 .05 ) and 90 days ( t=-12.52, P<0.05).ISI was significantly lower than in the normal rats aged 60 days (t=5.61, P<0.05) and 90 days (t=12.42, P<0.05).There were no significant differences in hepatocyte viability among the control group , IUGR group and insulin induction group after incubation of 48 h on day 60 (F=1.34, P=0.29) and day 90 (F=0.22, P=0.81).The glucose consumption of the IUGR group and insulin induction group were significantly decreased compared with the control group on day 60 ( F=9.28, P=0.002) and day 90 (F=56.60, P<0.001), while there was no significant difference be-tween the IUGR group and insulin induction group (P=0.08, P=0.10).Conclusion:The insulin sen-sitivity of hepatocytes of IUGR rats decreased from adolescence to adulthood .High-dilution insulin may induce insulin resistance cell model in vitro.
