BACKGROUND:Titanium aloy and stainless steel are two common internal fixation materials, but there are some difference in their therapeutic effects and biocompatibility. OBJECTIVE:To explore the therapeutic effects and biocompatibility of titanium aloy and stainless steel internal fixation materials for the treatment of spinal tuberculosis. METHODS:Seventy-one spinal tuberculosis patients, 35 males and 36 females, aged 17-81 were enroled. Among them, 35 patients received titanium aloy internal fixation, and the 36 patients underwent stainless steel internal fixation. At the end of 12-month folow-up, Cobb angle changes, therapeutic effect and Frankel grade were analyzed in the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Before treatment, there was no difference in the spinal kyphosis angle and Frankel grade between the two groups. At the last folow-up, the Frankel grade and Cobb angle were both improved in the two groups (P < 0.05), but there was stil no difference between the two groups. The cure rate was 97% (n=34) in the titanium aloy group and 92% in the stainless steel group (n=33), and no significant difference was found between the two groups. These two kinds of internal fixation materials exhibited good biocompatibility, and no infection and other adverse reactions occurred. These findings indicate that both titanium aloy and stainless steel as internal fixation materials have good biocompatibility and therapeutic effects.

AIM To research synergetic analgesic effect of asarum and verapamil. METHODS Acetic acid caused body turning experiment and hot plate induced pain experiment were used to observe analgesic effect, and the influence of action potential of toad sciatic nerve was observed by nerve chamber and multi media MS 302 system. RESULTS Asarum and A V compound has remarkable analgestic effect of pain in mice induced by acetic acid and hot plate. It also inhibited action potential transmission of toad sciatic nerve. Verpamil has faint analgestic effect but was not able to inhibit action potential transmission of toad sciatic nerve. A V compound had greater effect of analgesia and inhibition of nerve action potential transmission than its components asarum and verapamil. CONCLUSION Asarum and aerapamil have analgesia synergism.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effects of prenatal stress on neurological functions after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in adult offspring rats.

METHODSPregnant rats were randomly assigned to prenatal stress treatment, which was exposed to restraint three times daily in the last week of pregnancy, and no prenatal stress treatment. Adult male offspring rats were subjected to transient focal cerebral ischemia by MCAO. They were randomly divided into four groups: sham group, prenatal stress + sham group, MCAO group and prenatal stress + MCAO group (n = 10). After 24 hours of reperfusion, the neurological deficits were evaluated. The infarct size, cell apoptosis and expression of Caspase 3, cleaved Caspase 3 and Bcl-2 were detected.

RESULTSCompared with MCAO group, the neurological deficits, infarct size and apoptotic cells in prenatal stress + MCAO group were increased significantly (all P < 0.05). The expressions of Caspase 3 and cleaved Caspase 3 were much greater in prenatal stress + MCAO group than those of MCAO group, while the expression of Bcl-2 was significantly decreased in prenatal stress + MCAO group compared with MCAO group (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONPrenatal stress might exacerbate neuroloeical deficits in the offspring rats after MCAO by increasing cell apoptosis.

BACKGROUND:Fast track surgery, also cal ed enhanced recovery after surgery, is a series of optimal measures adopted during the perioperative period on the basis of evidence-based medicine, to reduce the physical and mental trauma brought to the patient and accelerate their recovery. It has become the research focus of orthopedic clinic as the surgery and anesthesia skil s are improved a lot in recent years, especial y the articular surgery, which has been widely used in clinics. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the clinical study of the application of optimal measures in joint replacement surgery both at home and abroad in recent years. METHODS:The first author searched related articles in PubMed and Chinese Journal Ful-text Database from January 1997 to September 2016. The key words were“joint replacement, enhanced recovery after surgery, multi-mode analgesia, diet management, steroid hormones”. 81 articles were found at last and one monograph was included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) We found that the recovery plan reduced the hospital stays of the patients from 4-12 days to 1-3 days, including pre-operative health education, shortening fasting and water-depriving duration before surgery, super-anesthesia before surgery and do not place catheter;adopting general anesthesia and appropriate adductor canal to relieve the pain, and stopping bleeding using tranexamic acid during operation;multi-mode analgesia, faster function exercise after anesthesia recovery, and drinking water in early phase after surgery during the perioperative period of joint replacement surgery conducted by the cooperation of surgeon, anesthetist, nurse and nutritionist. There were no significant improvements of postoperative complications rate and rehospitalization rate. (2) The research found that, enhanced recovery after surgery is suitable for most of the patients receiving joint replacement surgery, including those in advanced age, combined heart and lung disease before surgery, type 2 diabetes and smoking and drinking before surgery.

Objective To explore the effect of paracrine extracts derived from human adipose stem cells on white matter injury of neonatal rats and to compare the difference of therapeutive effect between the cerebellum medulla oblongata pool injection and the jugular vein injection.Method A total of 73 three-day-old SD rats were chosen to establish the model of white mater injury.After 24 hours,the 73 rats were randomized into the experimental group (n =46) and the control group (n =27).Then the experimental group was reclassified into ventricular group (n =23) and intravenous group (n =23).In the ventricular group,the paracrine extracts of human adipose stem cells was injected locally into the cerebellum medulla oblongata pool injection,while the extracts was injected into the jugular vein in the intravenous group.The control group was reclassified ventricular control group (n =15) and intravenous control group (n =12),and equivoluminal saline was injected the same way as the experimental group.Frozen sections of the brain tissue from 3 rats of each experimental group one day after injection were stained with fluorescein-conjugated streptavidin to study the distribution of the extracts.The brain tissue of 3 rats from each subgroup 3 days after injection were stained with hematoxylin eosin (HE) to observe the pathomorphological changes.While 7 days later,myelin basic protein (MBP) of white matter which was obtained from 7 rats of each group was detected by immunofluorescence staining.28 days after injection,the remaining rats were assessed by neurobehavior tests.For the rats that died during the experiment,the same number of the rats would be substituted in this study.Result The paracrine extracts were found to transfer to the brain lesion area,and the amount of the extracts was more in the ventricular group.The results of the HE staining showed that the white matter injury was more severe in the ventricular control group,and extensive area of infarction were found in this group.White matter injury was mild in the experimental group,and the structure of the corpus callosum was more complete in the ventricular group.MBP semi-quantitative scores of the ventricular group (0.7 ± 0.3) and intravenous group (1.7 ± 0.3) were lower than those of ventricular control group (3.4 ± 0.4)and intravenous control group(3.3 ±0.3).And the MBP scores of ventricular group was significantly lower than that of intravenous group (P ＜ 0.05).The scores of the neurobehavioral tests of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group,while the scores of the ventricular group were significantly higher than those of the intravenous group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The paracrine extracts derived from adipose stem cells could improve the prognosis of white matter injury,and cerebellum medulla oblongata pool injection showed better curative effect than the jugular vein injection.

Objective To evaluate the significance of COLD-PCR in detecting KRAS mutation of pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer patients. Methods First, set up COLD-PCR and compared the sensitivities of COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing with PCR/Sanger sequencing using mixed cell lines ( KRAS wild-type cell line SW116 and KRAS mutant cell line SW480).Then, detected KRAS mutation of 20 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples of pancreatic cancer and 39 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples of colorectal cancer using PCR/Sanger sequencing and COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing, respectively and compared the coincidence rate and consistency. Results The low detection limits of PCR/Sanger respectively. KRAS frequency detected by COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing [75% (15/20)] in 20 cases of pancreatic cancer was higher than that detected by regular PCR/Sanger sequencing [40% ( 8/20 ) ,x2 =5.013, P < 0.05]. KRAS frequency detected by COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing [44% (17/39)] in 39 cases of colorectal cancer was higher than that detected by regular PCR/Sanger sequencing [31% (12/39) ,x2 =1. 372, P = 0. 174]. The coincidence rate of these two methods was 0. 730 and the difference had no statistical significance. The coincidence rate of detecting KRAS mutation was 65% in pancreatic cancer and the results showed a good correlation between two methods and the two methods had bad agreement in diagnosis (Kappa = 0. 364, P < 0. 05 ). COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing could detect more cases of KRAS mutations from pancreatic caner than regular PCR/Sanger sequencing. This was because there were many non-tumor cells in pancreatic tumor tissue and COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing was more sensitive than regular PCR/Sanger sequencing. The coincidence rate of detecting KRAS mutations was 87% in colorectal cancer and the results were showed a good correlation between two methods and the two methods had substantical agreement in diagonsis ( Kappa = 0. 730, P < 0. 05 ) . Conclusion COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing is highly sensitive to screen KRAS mutation in pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer patients.
