Objective To evaluate the outcome of dorsal double locking compression plate (LCP) in treatment of stretched unstable distal radial fractures.Methods Fourteen cases of stretched unstable distal radial fractures were treated by reduction and internal fixation using straight or L-shaped anatomic LCP via dorsal approach.Wrist functional exercise was conducted immediately after operation.Follow up was made after operation to assess motion pain,functional score of wrist,and complication incidence at postoperative 12 weeks,24 weeks,and 1 year.Results Follow-up was lasted for 5-24 months.At postoperative 12 weeks,24 weeks and 1 year,mean visual analogue scale (VAS) was (1.88 ±0.26) points,(0.87 ± 0.14) points and (0.37 ± 0.06) points respectively and wrist functional score (Gartland-Werley score) was (6.45 ± 1.72) points,(2.73 ± 0.52) points and (2.10 ± 0.31) points respectively.According to Garfland-Werley score in the latest follow-up,the results were excellent in 10 cases,good in two,and fair in two.Besides,one case was combined with myotenositis of extensor pollicis longus muscle tendon and another case with myotenositis of extensor tendon.Conclusion Dorsal double LCP is one of the effective methods for stretched unstable distal radial fractures that can reconstruct anatomical structure of the wrist efficiently and attain satisfactory functional recovery,with no obvious pain.

Melanin is formed by oxidative polymerization of phenolic compounds,basically different kinds of melanin come from different organisms.DOPA melanin and DHN melanin have same physical and chemical characters although they have different biosynthetic pathway.DHN melanin is common in plant fungi and plays an important role on infection.The melanin accumulates in the fungal cell walls and prevents organic and inorganic molecules penetrating out,that insures appressorium's pressure and infection ability.This paper has reviewed the kinds and characters,especially discussed the role of melanin during pathogen infection based on our some research.

Objective To investigate migration of dendritic cells(DC)in orthotopic rat liver transplantation models.Methods Allogeneic models(Wistar→SD,experimental group)and syngenic models(Wistar→Wistar,control group)of rat liver transplantation were established.Graft livers and host celiac lymph nodes(n=4)of each group were sampled respectively at day 3,5,and 7 after the transplantation.The acute rejection was graded according to liver histopathological changes.The dy- namic state of DC number within graft and lymph nodes was detected by means of immunohistochemi- cal staining and image analysis.T-cell active proliferative response in lymph nodes was also studied. Results The histological examination revealed that mild to severe rejection occurred on the post-opera- tive days 5 and 7.At day 3 after transplantation,the number of S-100~+ DC in allograft was signifi- cantly increased and reached the peak at day 5,then decreased gradually at day 7.A significant num- ber of S-100~+ cells was detected in the allogeneic host lymph nodes from day 3 after transplantation, and displayed a continuous increasing trend for next several days.Active proliferation of T cells in the lymph nodes was triggered as early as day 3 after transplantation.Conclusion Allogeneic liver trans- plantation induces the accelerated migration of DC within the allograft and host lymphoid nodes.DC delivers a strong and sustained stimulation among T cells in the lymphoid nodes where effector cells are predominantly sensitized and rejected the graft eventually.

Objective To investigate the incidence of postoperative hepatic metastasis,clinicolpathological characteristics and the prognosis for pancreatic cancer. Methods Totally 83 cases with pancreatic cancer admitted in our hospital during January 2007 to September 2012 was retro?spectively analyzed according to clinicolpathological data. Results Postoperative liver metastasis occurred in 31 cases with a metastatic rate of 37.3%. The size(χ2=9.606;P=0.002),vascular invasion(χ2=4.794,P=0.029)and UICC stage(χ2=5.318,P=0.021)were correlated with he?patic metastasis. Univariate analysis revealed the poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer patient with hepatic metastasis(χ2=9.967,P=0.002). Cox re?gression analysis revealed hepatic metastasis as an independent prognostic factor(P=0.001). Conclusion Pancreatic cancer has a high possibility of hepatic metastasis. Postoperative hepatic metastasis was one of the independent factors for the prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Tumor size,vascular invasion and UICC stages were risk factors for postoperative liver metastasis of pancreatic cancer.

Objective:To explore the predictive factors of intestinal necrosis in acute mesenteric ischemia.Methods:This retrospective study enrolled 81 patients diagnosed as acute mesenteric vascular occlusive diseases in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University between Nov 2012 to May 2017. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to identify predictive factors for intestinal necrosis.Results:In univariate analysis, the predictive factors of intestinal necrosis were peritoneal irritation sign ( P<0.001), white blood cell count ( P<0.001), serum albumin ( P=0.028), blood creatinine ( P=0.025), serum lactic acid ( P=0.008), D-dimer ( P=0.037), intestinal pneumatosis ( P=0.017), decreased or disappeared enhanced bowel wall ( P<0.001) and bowel loop dilation>2.5 cm ( P=0.01) on CT scan. According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, white blood cells ( OR=3.60, 95% CI: 1.51-5.47, P=0.007), lactic acid ( OR=4.80, 95% CI: 1.36-9.89, P=0.032), reduced or disappeared enhanced bowel wall ( OR=10.57, 95% CI: 1.82-61.10, P=0.008) were independent predictive factors of intestinal necrosis in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia. Conclusions:The predicted risk factors for intestinal necrosis in mesenteric ischemic diseases are increased white blood cells, elevated serum lactate levels, and reduced or disappeared enhanced bowel wall on CT scan.

Objective:To evaluate the outcome and prognostic factors of conventional radiotherapy followed by intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) as a boost combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of high-grade gliomas (HGG). Methods:From Nov. 2004 to Nov. 2006, 112 HGG patients were treated with conventional radiotherapy followed by IMRT as a boost combined with chemotherapy. The radiotherapy regimen included first-course conventional radiotherapy and latE-course IMRT as a boost with the total radiation dosage of 57.5- 62.5Gy (27-29 fractions in 37-45 days). All the patients received chemotherapy. Sixty-three patients received temozolomidE-based chemotherapy and 49 patients received semustine plus teniposide chemotherapy. The treatment reaction was recorded. The overall survival rate and local progression-free survival rate were calculated. The prognostic factors were analyzed by using multivariate COX regression model. Results:The acute treatment toxicity was the most at grade 1 to grade 2 and no grade 4 adverse reaction was observed. Three cases had late radiation-induced brain necrosis. The overall 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 78.9%, 54.7%, and 30.8%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that tumor location (P=0.001) and KPS score (P=0.011) were independent prognostic factors. The 1-, 2-, 3-year local progression-free survival rates were 63.8%, 38.9%, and 10.5%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that tumor location (P=0.001), KPS score (P=0.001), and histologic type (P=0.005) were independent prognostic factors. Multivariate analysis did not reveal the significant correlation of temozolomide chemotherapy with the prognosis of the patients. Conclusion:Postoperative conventional radiotherapy followed by IMRT as a boost combined with chemotherapy has better short-term efficacy in the treatment of HGG and the adverse reaction is tolerable. KPS score, tumor location, and histologic type are important prognostic factors. Temozolomide chemotherapy is not associated with the prognosis of patients.

So far there exists no corresponding quality test procedures and grading standards for the seed of Prunus humilis, which is one of the important source of base of semen pruni. Therefor we set up test procedures that are adapt to characteristics of the P. humilis seed through the study of the test of sampling, seed purity, thousand-grain weight, seed moisture, seed viability and germination percentage. 50 cases of seed specimens of P. humilis tested. The related data were analyzed by cluster analysis. Through this research, the seed quality test procedure was developed, and the seed quality grading standard was formulated. The seed quality of each grade should meet the following requirements: for first grade seeds, germination percentage ≥ 68%, thousand-grain weight 383 g, purity ≥ 93%, seed moisture ≤ 5%; for second grade seeds, germination percentage ≥ 26%, thousand-grain weight ≥ 266 g, purity ≥ 73%, seed moisture ≤9%; for third grade seeds, germination percentage ≥ 10%, purity ≥ 50%, thousand-grain weight ≥ 08 g, seed moisture ≤ 13%.
