OBJECTIVETo explore therapeutic effects of Modified pinning combined with external tension band for the treatment of Gartland type III humeral supracondylar fractures in children.

METHODSFrom February 2009 to November 2010, 79 children with Gartland type III humeral supracondylar fractures were treated by modified pinning (pinning cross internal and external condyle assisted with lateral condyle) combined with external tension band (crossing needle end and hooking around) through lateral approach of elbow. There were 47 males and 32 females, with an average age of 8.7 years (ranging from 2.5 to 14 years). The time from injury to operation was 2 h to 8 d. The elbow joint function and Carrying angle were observed before and after treatment. The Flynn criteria were used to evaluate therapeutic effects.

RESULTSSixty-one patients were followed up (18 patients' data were lost) for 6-30 months (mean 13.5 months). According to Flynn criteria, 53 patients got excellent result, 7 good and 1 fair.

CONCLUSIONTreatment of child Gartland type III humeral supracondylar fractures with modified pinning combined with external tension band through lateral approach of elbow is believed to be an ideal method, which has advantages of reliable fixation, rapid recovery and less complications.

The composition of volatile compounds of soils and that of soil bacterial metabolites were identified by using the SPME-GC/MS method. Results showed that some compounds, trimethylamine, 3-methyl-2-pentanoe, dimethyl disulfide, methyl pyrazine, 2,5-dimethyl-pyrazine, benzaldehyde, N,N-dimethyloctylamine and nonadecane, subsisted commonly in soils and soil bacterial metabolites with strong fungistatic activity. These compounds may be the key antifungal factors in soil fungistasis, especially soil volatile fungistasis. Otherwise, the method used in this study was a good tool for further study of soil volatle fungistasis.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of rapamycin on the proliferation and cell cycle of prostate cancer cell lines PC3,and to investigate the mechanism that it inhibits the growth and metastasis of prostate cancer cells.MethodsPC3 cells were cultured in vitro,and treated with different concentrations (10,25ng/ml) of cycle raparnycine.MTT was used to measure the change of proliferation of PC3 cells.Flow cytometry was used to measure the changes of cell cycle and apoptosis of PC3 cells.Nude mice were used to detect the effect of rapamycin on metastasis.ResultsThe proliferation of PC3 cells was significantly inhibited by rapamycin,and a time- and concentration-dependent relationship was shown,the inhibited rate was(42.23 ± 0.78 ) ％ after 36 h in the group of 25 ng/ml ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Flow cytometry analysis showed rapamycin significantly inhibited the cell cycle,prompted the apoptosis,and increased the number of cells in G0/G1 phase at 36 h with a rate of cell staying at Go/G1 [ (92.17 ± 0.69 ) ％ ] ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The weight of tumors in nude mice in the control group was significantly greater than that in RPM group[ (3.41± 0.28)g vs ( 1.19 ± 0.23 )g] ( P＜ 0.05 ),and metastatic sites of the lung and liver in the control group were significantly mote than the RPM group [ 100％ (7/7) vs 14.29％ ( 1/7 ) ] ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Rapamycin significantly inhibits the proliferation and metastasis of osteosarcoma.The rapamycin-based regimen is valuable for clinical application.

Objective Toanalyzetheclinicalcharacteristicsandtreatmentoutcomesofspinalfilum terminalevascularmalformation.Methods Theclinicaldataof6patientswithfilumterminalevascular malformation diagnosed and treated from January 2008 to December. 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. The definition of filum terminale vascular malformation is anterior/posterior spinal artery feeding arteriovenous fistula or arteriovenous malformation and located below conus medullaris,and does not complicate with spinal vascular lesions in the other part. The Aminoff & Logue score and MRI of spinal cord function were performedatoneyearaftermicroneurosurgeryand/orendovascularembolization.Results Allpatients were males. Their clinical presentations were the weakness of both lower extremities and sphincter disturbance. The mean course of disease was 17. 1 ± 5. 2 months. The pathological type of the 6 patients were all arteriovenous fistulas. The feeding arteries included lumbar artery,internal iliac artery,and median sacral artery. Two of the 6 patients underwent Onyx glue embolization,3 were treated with microneurosurgery,and 1 was treated with embolization in combination with microneurosurgery. They were all achieved anatomic cure. The Aminoff & Logue scores were improved after 1 year (3. 8 ± 1. 9 scores before procedure,2. 8 ± 2. 0 scores after procedure),there was no significant difference (P >0. 05). The myodynamia scores were improved in 3 patients,2 did not change,1 got worse. The urinary and bowel functions were improved in 2 patients,and4didnotchange.Conclusion Filumterminalevascularmalformationisararevascular malformation of spinal cord. Both embolization and surgical treatment can achieve anatomic cure. Although the spinal cord function can be only partially restored,but continuous deterioration can be prevented.

Objective To analyze the etiologies,clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of patients with acute renal failure(ARF)admitted to the hospital at high altitude.Method This retrospective study included clinical data of patients with acute renal failure in the General Hospital of Tibet Military Command from May 2001 to April,2006.Results There were 85 male patients and 63 female patients with mean age(42.4?18.1)years old.Among 148 patients with acquired ARF,52.7% was iatrogenic or nosoeomal origin, demonstrating a trend of increasing.The ARF included pre-renal(n=48,32.4%),renal parenchymal(n= 90,60.8%)and post-renal(n=10,6.8%)in origin.Acute high altitude sickness(n=20)was the major causes of pre-renal ARF.Renal parenchymal ARF could be classified into glomerular vascular lesions(n=24), acute tubular necrosis(n=53),acute interstitial nephritides(n=12),and contusion of unitesticle(n=1).of 90 cases of renal parenchymal ARF,39 patients(43.3%)were induced by medicines.Lithiasis was the major causes of post-renal ARF.The mortality of ARF in our study was 42.6%.The mortality of patients contracted ARF in hospital was much higher than that of patients community ARF in community(55.1 vs 23.6%;P=0.01). There was no significant differences of the mortality between the patients with and without dialysis treatment. Univariate analysis showed that prognosis was correlated with age,the presence of hematuria and oliguria or anuria Hb,and the number of organ system failures.The logistic regression showed that age,Hb and the number of organ system dysfunction were the predictors of mortality.Conlusions The major causes of ARF at high altitude were acute high altitude sickness and the use of medicines with nephrotoxicity.The morbility and mortality of nosocomisl ARF increased significantly.Prevention of MODS is a key management to decrease mortality in severe ARF.

Three primer were designed based on the consevered area of the genetic of the ATCC VR-2332 strain and LV strain. And the nest RT-PCR of testing porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus were developed. The nest RT-PCR against ATCC VR-2332 strain, LV strain and B13 strain were done by this method.The DNA fragment were obtained specially from the three strains isolated from different region. The size were 430bp (430bp) , 410bp (413bp) and 410 bp (413bp) separately. But the DNA fragment were not obtained from HCV, PPV and PRV. Its sensitivity was 10-2 TCID50. It's sensitivity increased 10000 times than one step RT-PCR. It should make the method of testing porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus more sensitive, fast and accurate.

A nest RT-PCR/restriction test has been developed in order to distinguish the lapinised vaccine strain from field isolates of classical swine fever virus. The restriction enzyme cut sites mapping of the major coding sequence of E2 gene lapinised vaccine strain and ShiMen strain of classical swine fever virus have been compared. Ten and sixteen unique restriction markers have been found in the lapinised vaccine strain and ShiMen strain. The restriction enzyme cut sites mapping of the twenty six unique restriction marker in the major coding sequence of E2 gene of 17 classical swine fever field isolates have been analyzed. Only 3 sites (HgaI、Hin8I及Hsp92I) are present in the lapinised vaccine strain sequence. Two pans of nested primers and a criteria of analysis have been designed for HgaI restriction marker site. The tests have been conducted first on the lapinised vaccine strain and ShiMen strain of classical swine fever virus resulting in predicted restrection patterns. Finally, the tests have been applied to 5 field isolates of different gene group analyzed by phylogenetic study. The result showed that only HCLV strain gene can be cut to 2 fragment by Hgal , and ShiMen strain and 5 field isolates cant be cut At the same time the sensitivity and specificity of nest RT-PCR have been tested. The sensitivity is 0. 2MLD. The specific fragment of BDV and BVDV were not obtained by the nest RT-PCR. These results showed that the development of the nest RT-PCR/restriction tests is very important for the control and perish of classical swine fever in china.
