Objective To explore the efficacy of double fork plate in treating the posterior wall fracture of the acetabulum.Methods Reviewed 11 patients who had treated with open reduction and internal fixation with double fork plates for posterior wall fracture of the acetabulum from July 2008 to July 2012,including 8 male cases and 3 female cases with an average age of 35.3 years(from 22 to 53 years).The average time from getting injury to operation was 7.8 days(from 1 to 19 days).The operations were performed through the Kocher-langenbeck approach.Double fork plates(formed from a three-or four-tubular plate) with an overlapping reconstruction plate used for posterior wall fragments.The functional outcomes were evaluated by the modified Merled'Aubigne and Postel'clinical garding system.The radiographs were graded according to the Matte criteria.Rmults The patients were adopted telephone or outpatient follow-up for 25 months on average(from 12 to 33 months).By the Matte criteria,7 cases achieved excellent reduction,3 good reduction,1 case fair reduction and none poor reduction,with the good and excellent rate of 90.9％.By the modified Merled'Aubigne and Postel'critria,functional recovery of the affected hip at the last followe-up was rated as excellent in 6 cases,good in 3 cases,fair in 2 cases and none poor,with the good and excellent rate of 81.8％.Heterotopic ossification was happened to 1 patient.Neither infection nor ischemic necrosis of the femoral head was recorded.Coclusion Double fork plates with an overlapping reconstruction plate can provid stable fixation and allow for early functional exercise.So the use of Double fork plates have a certain clinical value.

Objective:To explore the infuence of calf spleen extractive injection combined with chemotherapy on immune function of the patients after colorectal carcinoma. Methods:Totally 128 cases of postoperative colorectal carcinoma patients were randomly di-vided into two groups with 64 ones in each. The control group only received FOLFOX 4 regimen, while the study group received calf spleen extractive injection additionally from the first day to the tenth day, 10ml, ivd, and 14-day was one cycle. After 4 weeks, im-mune function, peripheral blood leukocytes ( WBC) , hemoglobin ( Hb) and platelet ( Plt) in the two groups were compared, and the adverse reactions were evaluated as well. Results: After the treatment, CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4/CD8 were increased in the study groups, and those in the study group were much higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, there were no significant changes in WBC, Plt and Hb in the two groups (P>0. 05), while WBC and Plt in the study group were higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Calf spleen extractive injection combined with chemotherapy not only can increase the immune func-tion, but also alleviate myelosuppression and gastrointestinal toxicity in the treatment of postoperative colorectal carcinoma patients.

Objective To observe the effect of intermedin on renal interstitial fibrosis of unilateral ureteral obstruction rats. Methods Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups:the sham-operation group (n=10) underwent the left ureteral dissection,the other 30 rats were made as unilateral ureteral obstruction models and divided into the model group (UUO),the losartan group,the IMD group (each group n=10).At the day 14,21 after operation,randomly 5 rats from each group were blooded by abdominal arotic and obstructive kidneys were taken out.The renal histopathological changes were observed by HE and Masson staining.The BUN,Scr,and hydroxyproline (Pro) of the obstructive kideys were measured by colorimetry. The expression of TGF-β1 and intermedin was observed by immunohistochemisty staining. Results Compared with the sham-operated group,the levels of BUN,Scr,Pro,TGF-β1 and IMD in the model group increased (P＜0.05).Compared with the UUO group,the levels of Scr,BUN,Pro,TGF-β1 and IMD in the losartan group were lower (P＜0.05).However,IMD in the IMD group was significantly up-regulated (P＜ 0.05),the others were down-regulated (P＜0.05). Conclusion IMD can improve the renal interstitial fibrosis,and the mechanism maybe antagonizes the TGF-β1.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of Astragalus injection combined with neoadjuvant chemother-apy and three dimensional conformal radiotherapy in the treatment of colorectal cancer. METHODS:A total of 80 patients with me-dium and advanced colorectal cancer were selected from oncology department of our hospital during Jun. 2010 to Jun. 2014,and di-vided into observation group and control group according to random number table,with 40 cases in each group. Control group re-ceived neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy. Observation group was additionally giv-en Astragalus injection 10-20 mL added into 5％ Glucose injection 250-500 mL,ivgtt,qd,on the basis of control group. A treat-ment course lasted for 21 d,and both groups received 3 courses. Short-term efficacies as well as immune indexes [CD3+,CD4+, CD4+/CD8+ and NK cells] before and after treatment were observed in 2 groups. The occurrence of ADR and survival situation were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:Clinical response rate of observation group was 87.5％,which was slightly higher than that of control group(77.5％),but there was no statistical significance(P>0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical signifi-cance in immune index levels between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,NK cells,CD3+,CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ levels of con-trol group were decreased significantly,which was significantly lower than observation group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). Two-year survival rate of observa-tion group was significantly higher than that of control group;the recurrence rate and distant metastasis rate were significantly low-er than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Astragalus injection not only can improve therapeu-tic efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with colorectal cancer,balance inflammatory state,improve survival rate,re-duce recurrence rate and distant metastasis rate with good safety.
