Objective To evaluate the clinical effect ofXugu-Huoxue decoction combined with anatomical reduction and internal fixation with cannulated screws in patients with femoral neck fractures. Methods A total of 89 patients with femoral neck fractures were randomly divided into a control group and a Xugu-Huoxuegroup according to the random number table, with 46 in the control group and 45 in the Xugu-Huoxuegroup. The control group was treated with anatomical reduction and internal fixation with cannulated screws, while theXugu-Huoxuedecoction group was treated withXugu-Huoxuedecoction on the basis of the control group. The hemodynamics of the femoral vein was evaluated with color Doppler sonography. Hip function was rated with Harris hip score.ResultsAfter 12 months of treatment, the minimum diastolic velocity (12.0 ± 2.2 cm/svs.9.3 ± 2.0 cm/s;t=3.675,P<0.01), diameter (0.8 ± 0.3 cm vs. 0.6 ± 0.1 cm;t=3.675, P<0.01) and blood flow (1 123.4 ± 271.1 ml/minvs.901.2 ±121.1 ml/min;t=5.067,P<0.01) of the femoral vein in theXugu-Huoxuedecoction group were significantly increased than those in the control group. The rates of excellent or good in theXugu-Huoxuedecoction group and the control group was 86.7% (39/45) and 63.0% (29/46), respectively, with statistically significant difference (χ2=5.529,P=0.019). There were 2 patients (4.4%) with delayed fracture healing and 2 patients (4.4%) with femoral head necrosis in theXugu-Huoxuedecoction group, while 3 patients (6.5%) with delayed fracture healing, 5 patients (10.9%) with femoral head necrosis inthe control group, without statically significant difference (χ2value were 0.000, 0.572,P value were 1.000, 0.449, respectively).ConclusionXugu-Huoxue decoction combined with anatomical reduction and internal fixation with cannulated screwscan improve the fracture prognosis and the joint function in patients with femoral neck fractures.

Objective To evaluate the effect of alIoHCT on recurrence and metastasis of HCC after hepatic radical resection. Methods Umbilical cord blood were collected after labor. The efficacy of separa-tion by 6% hydroxyethyl starch (6% HES) and NH4CL lysing solution were examined. Twenty-two SCID mice were randomized into the scheduled transplantation group (n=8), the single transplantation group (n =8) and the normal saline group (n=6). Human nucleated cells (NC)at a amount of 5×107 were transfused through the tail vein into the 2 groups of transplantation. All the mice in the 3 groups received cyclophospha-mide (CTX) as conditioning regimen before tansplantation and Methylprednisolone (MP) for 1 week continu-ously after trasplantation. Hematopoietic and immune recovery, graft versus host disease (GVHD), engraft-ment and survival rate were observed after transplantation. Six weeks after alloHST, the orthotopic tumor model in SCID mice was established by implanting histologically intact tissue under the embrane of liver. Ten days later, the mice received radical resection of lobe bearing tumor. The condition of recurrence and metas-tasis was observed 4 weeks after operation. Results A murine model of umbilical cord blood transplantation using CTX and MP as conditioning regimen could be successfully established in SCID mice. The percentage CD34+ cells of peripheral blood NC in scheduled transplantation group and single transplantation group was 1.66%±0.47% and 0.68% + 0.56%, respectively. There was significant statistical significance (P<0.01). The intrahepatic recurrence rate after operation was 100% in all the 3 groups. However, the recur-rent tumor volume was (367.18±31.86) mm3 , (648.26±155.22) mm3, (811.38±127.36) mm3, re-spectively in the 3 groups. There was marked difference among the 3 groups (P<0.01). The inhibitory rate of group A and B was 54.7% and 20.1%. The incidence of lung metastasis was 14.3 (1/7), 6.7% (4/6) and 100% (5/5), respectively in the 3 groups and there was remarkable difference (P<0.01). The inci-dence of celiac lymph node metastasis was 14.3 (1/7), 33.4% (2/6) and 40% (2/5), respectively in the 3groups and there was no significant difference (P=0.58). Conclusion AlloHSCT is a useful method for de-creasing metastasis and recurrence of liver cancer after radical resection in early stage.

Acute leukemia is the most common malignacy in children. Along with the development of medical science and the elevation of the level of diagnosis and treatment, most of the childhood leukemia is changed from "incurable disease"to "curable disease". But due to traditional concept? economic factors ?and lagging of social guarantee system,about 1/3~1/2 of patients's parents discontinue or give up treatment,which makes patients lose the medical rights and survival rights.We appeal medical workers and the whole society to devote love?to save the children from suffering leukemia,help the family and make society more harmonious.

AIM:Long bone growth plate injury induced by wound and infection may cause limb reduction or angular deformity. Tissue engineering provides a promising treatment of growth plate injuries. In this study,we investigated the feasibility of establishing tissue-engineered growth-plate by allograft demineralized bone matrix(DBM) co-cultured with rabbit iliac growth-plate cells. METHODS:The experiment was performed at Department of Orthopaedics,Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from June 2005 to June 2006. ①Two 3-week-old New Zealand rabbits irrespective of gender(clean grade,2.0-2.5 kg) were selected. Growth plate cells were harvested from iliac crest epiphyseal cartilage of the rabbits by dissection and digestion with type Ⅱ collagenase. The third passage cells cultured were collected and incubated on allograft demineralized bone matrix. ② Histology,immunohistochemical staining and electronic scanning microscope(SEM) examinations were performed to observe cell growth on DBM 24 hours,7,14 and 21 days after culture. RESULTS:①Growth plate chondrocytes exhibited polygonal in monolayer culture,and immunohistochemical staining for type Ⅱ collagen was positive. ②SEM examination showed that twenty-four hours after coculture,the cells adhered to DBM scaffolds;Seven days after culture,the growth-plate chondrocytes rapidly proliferated and began to secret extracellular matrix;cells covered the whole scaffold and became overlapped on the 21st day. ③HE staining showed after 14 days of culture,growth plate cells adhered DBM scaffold in spherical shape with abundant cytoplasm. CONCLUSION:Tissue-engineered growth-plate is successfully constructed by allograft mineralized bone matrix co-cultured with rabbit iliac growth-plate cells.
