0.05). No loosening, distortion and breaking of fusion apparatus were found. Conclusion STT arthrodesis simulated in new fusion apparatus does not show displaced even though forced the utmost movement in range of motion of extension 35?/flexion 50?, radial deviation 10?/ulnar deviation 30?. STT arthrodesis can get excellent stability using new fusion apparatus.

Objective To construct and identify of a plasmid mediated high efficiency of RNA interference(RNAi) against Nogo-66 receptor(NgR).Methods After cloning of NgR by RT-PCR,the fragments were inserted into pcDNA3.1/CT-GFP-TOPO to produce plasmid expressing NgR-GFP fusion protein.Four pairs of oligonucleotide were designed according to NgR sequence and annealed.The resulting fragments were ligated into short hairpin RNA(shRNA) expressing plasmid.The plasmids expressing NgR-GFP fusion protein and shRNA were co-transfected into AAV-293 cells.RNAi efficiency against NgR was observed under fluorescent microscope and calculated by Western blotting.Results The interference efficiency of one sequence was above 90%.Conclusion A plasmid mediated high RNAi efficiency against NgR is constructed successfully.

Objective:To investigate the related factors of pancreatic fistula after laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed of 189 patients who underwent LADG in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2017 to March 2018. Twenty-seven patients with postoperative pancreatic fistula and 27 randomly selected normal patients were included in the study. The preoperative characteristics and surgical data of all patients were recorded, including body mass index, visceral fat area, past history, preoperative tumor staging, operation time and bleeding volume, etc. The related factors of postoperative pancreatic fistula were analyzed. Measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD), and t-test was used for comparison between groups. Chi-square test was used to compare the count data between groups. Results:The patients with high body mass index ( t=3.956, P=0.003), high visceral fat area ( t=6.161, P=0.038), long operation time ( t=2.650, P=0.024), profuse hemorrhage ( t=1.887, P=0.042), complete lymphadenectomy ( t=2.092, P=0.001) were prone to postoperative pancreatic fistula, while there was no significant difference of visceral fat area/total abdominal fat area ( χ2=1.334, P=0.324), preoperative with pulmonary diseases ( χ2=0.750, P=0.379), coronary heart disease ( χ2=0.081, P=0.500), hypertension ( χ2=0.667, P=0.239), diabetes mellitus ( χ2=2.030, P=0.127), chronic kidney disease ( χ2=0.587, P=0.352), tumor stage( χ2=1.388, P=0.500) and other factors between the two groups. Conclusions:Obesity patients and LADG patients with long operation time are more likely to have postoperative pancreatic fistula. Comprehensive preoperative assessment and prudent intraoperative operation may be one of the effective methods to avoid postoperative pancreatic fistula.

Objective To develop a new type fusion apparatus for scaphoid-trapezium-trapezoid (STT) arthrodesis.Methods The apparatus was designed on the basis of the anatomic data of STT measured from Chinese cadaveric wrists.Simulated arthrodeses of STT joints were conducted to test the fixation performance of the apparatus made of titanium alloy on the STT joint specimens.Several modifications were made before the apparatus was made into a finished product.Results The fusion apparatus consists of a plate and screws.The fusion plate for STT arthrodesis is made into a taper one connected to a cylinder.On the plate are three screw holes through which the three carpal bones (STT) are fixed by three screws respectively.The hollow cylinder is designed for bone grafting,and its outer threads ensure a very tight contact between the fusion plate and the carpal bones.Auxiliary tools are also made.Conclusions As the novel design of the fusion apparatus improves the mechanical strength of fixation of STT and prevents the possible rotation and collapse of fused STT,the apparatus is a reliable internal fixation device for the limited intercarpal arthrodesis.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics on diagnosis and treatment of renal tubercu- losis.Methods Clinical data of 82 patients with renal tuberculosis were retrospectively reviewed.Results All of the 18 cases who received medication recovered completely.64 cases undergoing surgery were pathologically diagnosed to have renal tuberculosis,of which 2 cases developed ureteral stump syndrome.Conclusion Urine PCR-TB-DNA re- mained the primary diagnostic method before operation.Computed tomography(CT)and magnetic resonance urogra- phy(MRU)could be used in diagnosis of renal tuberculosis.When the non-functioning kidney was resected,per- inephrit fat and the involved ureter should be concomitantly resected as much as possible.

OBJECTIVE: To improve superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO-NP) stability, biocompatibility and tumor-targeting and evaluate their tumor targeting in vitro. METHODS: The folic acid-carboxymethylchitosan-superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (FA-OCMCS-SPIO-NPs) were synthesized by "three-steps": at first, superparamagnetic oxide iron nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation, then, O-carboxymethyl chitosan and folic acid were successfully immobilized on the surface of SPIO-NPs in turn. The fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-Ray diffraction were used to confirm their synthesis, meanwhile, transmission electron microscope (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Zeta-potential measurement and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) were applied to characterize their physicochemical properies. Ferrozine assay and Prussian blue staining were used to evaluate their tumor targeting in vitro. RESULTS: X-Ray diffraction showed the crystalline powder of FA-CMCS-SPIO-NPs agree with the standard Fe3O4, Fourier transform infrared results showed O-carboxymethylchitosan and folic acid were covalently modified on the surface of SPIO-NPs successfully, TEM showed all synthesized SPIO-NPs were almost spherical or ellipsoidal. Their sizes were less then 20 nm, dynamic light scattering (DLS), Zeta-potential results demonstrate the intensity particle size distributions of FA-OCMCS-SPIO-NPs were (41.4±0.132)nm, Zeta potential were (-21.36±15)mV. The surface modification may lead to decrese of magnetisms Ferrozine assay and Prussian blue staining results showed FA-OCMCS-SPIO-NPs had good tumor targeting and the tumor targeting had good relations with the amount of FR on surface of tumor cells. CONCLUSION: FA-OCMCS-SPIO-NPs with strong superparamagnetic property, excellent stability, and good folate receptor targeting is successfully synthesized, which demonstrated the potential for tumor MRI diagnose and therapy.
