BACKGROUND:Raloxifene is the third generation of selective estrogen receptor modulators, which can decrease bone loss, increase bone mineral content, and reduce fracture risk. OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of raloxifene combined with self-setting calcium phosphate cement on the repair of rabbit mandibular defects. METHODS:Totaly 36 New Zealand white rabbits were selected to prepare 8 mm×4 mm×3 mm mandibular defect models, and then randomized equaly into experimental group (raloxifene, 7.5 mg/kg per day, combined with self-setting calcium phosphate cement), drug group (raloxifene, 7.5 mg/kg per day), artificial bone group (self-setting calcium phosphate cement). Rabbits were sacrificed 4, 8 and 12 weeks later, respectively, for measurement of bone morphogenetic protein 2 using immunohistochemistry method and transforming growth factor β using a laser scanning confocal microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 4 and 8 weeks, the expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 was obviously higher in the experimental group than the drug and artificial bone groups; after 12 weeks, bone remodeling was basicaly complete in the experimental group, and the expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 became lower than that in the other two groups. The expression of transforming growth factor β in the experimental group was gradualy increased and reached the peak at 8 weeks, while in the drug and artificial bone groups, the expression of transforming growth factor β exhibited an increasing trend within 4-12 weeks, which was close to the peak. These findings suggest that raloxifene can promote early expression of bone morphogenetic proteins and early calus formation as wel as accelerate the repair of bone defects with calcium phosphate cement.

0.05).Conclusion The propofol TCI system can be safely used in surgical operation for patients with lymphedema.

Objective To investigate analgesic effects of flurbiprofen in lower extremity liposuction for patients with primary lymphedema. Methods A total of 60 patients receiving lower extremity liposuction under general anesthesia were allocated to 3 groups:the control group (group A) received no analgesic drug 10-20 min before the end of operation, the parecoxib group (group B) received intravenous parecoxib 40 mg, and the flurbiprofen group (group C) received intravenous flurbiprofen 100 mg.The VAS was recorded at 1, 2, 6, 12, and 24 h after operation.Adverse reactions were also recorded . Results The VAS of rest pain and motion pain at 1, 2, 6, and 12 h were significantly lower in the group B than those in the group A (P<0.05);the VAS of rest pain and motion pain at 1, 2, and 12 h were significantly lower in the group C than those in the group A (P<0.05).The VAS at 1 and 2 h did not differ between the group B and C (P>0.05), but had significant difference at 6 and 12 h (P<0.05).No significant differences in the VAS at 24 h were observed among the three groups (P>0.05).Adverse reactions were not different among the three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Both flurbiprofen and parecoxib sodium can achieve good postoperative analgesic effects in patients with lymphedema receiving lower extremity liposuction .

ObjectiveTo study absorbed mechanism of free bone auto-graft in cranium.MethodsTwenty-four adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into two groups of twelve each. Cranium graft or rib graft was implanted on each side of the cranium. The onlay graft was harvested at the 12th and 24th week, and the collagen fibers were scrutinized under scanning electron microscope. ResultsThe number of the bone collagen fibrils at twenty- fourth week was more than that of the twelfth week, the arrangement of collagen fibrils at the twenty- fourth week was more regular than that of the twelfth week, and the collagen fibrils of the cranium graft were more numberous and regular than those of the rib graft observed at the twelfth week, but they were similar at twenty - fourth week. ConclusionRemoding time of cranium graft is shorter than that of rib graft, but bone remoding of both cranium and rib has finished in 24th week after operated.

Background Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) following cataract extracapsular extraction is a major cause of the reduction of visual acuity.Topical administration of eye drops is a research hotspot for the prevention of PCO.Objective This study was to evaluate the release of cyclosporine A-loaded chitosan nanoparticles (CyA-CS-NP) by ionic gelation in vitro and its feasibility of modification of the surface of polymethylmethacrylate intraocular lens (PMMA IOL) with CyA-CS-NP.Methods The CS-NP and CyA-CS-NP were prepared by ionic gelation of CS with sodium tripolyphosphate.The characteristics of CS-NP,such as the appearance and mean size,and drug entrapment efficient (EE),loading capacity (LC),and the drug release were studied ; the CyA content on the IOL surface was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).The IOL surface modified with CyA-CS-NP was observed by scanning electron microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy technique (XPS),the changes of elements and chemical bond types between simple plasma processed IOL and CyA-CS-NP modified IOL were analyzed.The transmittance at the wavelength of 360-490 nm and refraction of IOL were detected using back focal length method and spectrophotometer,and the effective resolution of IOL was evaluated according to the instruction of ISO/CD 11979-2.Loops anti fatigue test of IOL referred to the criteria of ISO/CD 11979-3.Results The CS-NP and CyA-CS-NP showed monodisperse,uniform appearance similar to spherical shape with a mean size of (158±18) nm and (219±29) nm,respectively.The CyA-CS-NP had high CyA association efficiency and loading capacity (64.2％ and 7.6％).In vitro release study revealed a fast release on the first day followed by a increased drug release during an 11-day following up.The sustained release was approximately 46.6％ at day 1 and 77.7％ at day 12,respectively.The surface of IOLs with cling film was smooth without CS-NP;while the edge of IOLs appeared a layer of CyA-CS-NP after modification.XPS analysis displayed some elements such as phosphonium,CNH2 and O =CN that appeared on the modified surface,indicating that CyA-CS-NP existed on the surface of IOLs edge.The mean quality of CyA on three IOLs surface after modification was 171.88 μg.The diopter,distinguishing ability and transmittance of modified IOL were (16.64±0.23) D,(90.28 ± 0.25) ％ and (73.57 ±0.62) ％,and those of unmodified IOL were (16.62±0.29) D,(90.28±0.21) ％,(73.61±0.60)％,without significant differences between them (t =0.381,0.078,2.291,all at P ＞ 0.05).The antifatigue ability of loops complied with the criteria of ISO/CD 11979-3.Conclusions The optical property and antifatigue ability of loops of the edge-modified IOLs by CyA-CS-NP reach the normal standard and meet the requirement of clinic application.The edge-modified IOLs by CyA-CS-NP can be a delivery system for intraocular drug release.

Proteomic research is to r eveal the function of genes from an integrated, kinetic and quantitative view at the global protein level, which is an important component of post-genome proje ct. Cancer is a kind of complex disease involved by multi-genes. Proteomic rese arch will be helpful to discover the mechanism of cancer development, to find sp ecial malignant tumor markers and targets of drug treatment.

Objective To study the therapeutic effect of pinaverium bromid and oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet on patients with bile duct Ⅲ of sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (SOD) after cholecystectomy.Methods 72 patients who had a diagnosis consistent with bile duct Ⅲ of SOD seen from February 2010 to February 2013 in our hospital were randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group.Patients in the control group were given pinaverium bromid for 3 months while patients in the treatment group were,in addition to pinaverium bromid,given oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet.Relief of abdominal pain,abdominal distention and recurrence of the above symptoms after drug withdrawal were studied.Results The scores on abdominal pain in the treatment group before and after treatment were 7.5 ± 1.1 and 3.0 ± 1.6 (P ＜ 0.05) while the scores in the control group were 7.4 ± 1.1 and 5.0 ± 1.4 (P ＜ 0.05),respectively.Alleviation of abdominal pain in the treatment group was superior to the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The scores on abdominal distention in the treatment group before and after treatment were 5.4 ± 0.6 and 1.6 ± 0.5 (P ＜ 0.05) while the scores in the control group were 5.2 ± 0.5 and 4.7 ± 0.8 (P ＞ 0.05),respectively.Alleviation of abdominal distention in the treatment group was superior to the control group (P ＜0.05).The scores of abdominal pain and distention in half year after 3 months' therapy in the treatment group were 3.1 ± 1.7 and 1.7 ± 1.1,respectively,which obviously were lower than the control group (5.4 ± 1.4 and 5.0 ± 0.6,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Pinaverium bromid and oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet could effectively alleviate abdominal pain and distention in patients with bile duct Ⅲ of SOD after cholecystectomy and the recurrence rates of symptoms were significantly lower.

Objective To present the management of increasing the closure stress of urethra for treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women. Methods In 12 patients with stress incontinence the posterior urethra and the anterior wall of the bladder was incised.Then the wall of posterior urethra,bladder neck and bladder trigone were trimmed and sutured to form a tube whereby to elongate and tighten the posterior urethra referring to Campbell-Young's way and according to Laplace's law. Results The mean period of post-operative follow-up was 8.8 years.Eleven patients could completely control their urinating without residual urine after the operation.The short-term and long-term outcomes were the same in these 11 patients.For the remaining one patient little urine was spilt when the abdominal pressure was increased with exertion. Conclusions Elongating and tightening the posterior urethra is simple,effective and safe for treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women.
