Objective To observe the effect of three different methods for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compressive fractures on bone density.Methods Fifty-three patients with osteoporotic vertebral compressive fractures were retrospectively analyzed.These patients were divided into conservative treatment group,vertebroplasty(PVP)group and balloon kyphoplasty(PKP)group.Quantitative computed tomography measurement of bone density(L2-4)was performed before treatment,after treatment for 3 months,half a year,1 year,1 and half a year.Results Before and after treatment,no significant changes was found in bone density during follow-up in PVP group and PKP group.Bone density was decreased after treatment for 3 months compared with that before treatment,from(86.12 ± 8.21)mg/cm3 to (85.23 ± 8.31)mg/cm3 in PVP group,from(86.32 ± 8.38)mg/cm3 to(84.98 ± 8.26)mg/cm3 in PKP group,but there was no significant difference(P > 0.05),bone density returned to pre-injury level after treatment for half a year.Bone loss was found significantly after treatment for 3 months and half a year follow-up in conservative treatment group,bone density decreased significantly[(74.42 ± 8.36),(76.10 ± 8.31)mg/cm3 vs.(86.87 ±8.27)mg/cm3],and there was significant difference(P <0.05),and there was no significant difference between after treatment for 1 year and before treatment(P> 0.05).Bone density after treatment for 3 months and half a year in PVP group and PKP group was higher than that in conservative treatment group [(85.23 ±8.31),(84.98 ± 8.26)mg/cm3 vs.(74.42 ± 8.36)mg/cm3 and(86.23 ± 8.05),(86.41 ± 8.17)mg/cm3 vs.(76.10 ± 8.31)mg/cm3],and there was significant difference(P< 0.05).There was no significant difference among three groups after treatment for 1 year and 1 and half a year(P > 0.05).Conclusions PVP and PKP are positive treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures,which could reduce the loss of bone mass and do function exercise early.It could prevent brittle fracture and vertebral compression fracture further aggravated,which are a better clinical treatment methods.

Objective To investigate the antitumor therapeutic effect of combined therapy of magnetic induction heating by nano-magnetic particles, herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene(HSV-tk suicide gene) and internal radiation in mice bearing MCF-7 breast carcinoma. Methods The transfection reagents, plasmids heat shock protein-HSV-tk (pHSP-HSV-tk), ferroso-ferric oxide nano-magnetic fluid flow and 188Re-ganciclovir-bovine serum albumin-nanopaticles (GCV-BSA-NP) were prepared. The heating experiments in vivo were carried out using ferroso-ferric oxide nano-magnetic fluid flow. Sixty mice tumor models bearing MCF-7 breast carcinoma were established and randomly divided into six groups. Group A was the control group, B was gene transfection therapy group, C was hyperthermia group, D was gene transfection therapy combined with radionuclide brachytherapy group, E was gene therapy combined with hyperthermia group, and F was gene therapy, hyperthermia combined with radionuclide brachytherapy group. The tumor growth, tumor mass and histopathological changes were evaluated. The expression of HSV-tk in the groups of B, D, E and F was detected by RT-PCR. Poisson distribution and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used for statistical analysis by SPSS 10.0 software. Results In the animal heating experiments, the temperature of tumor increased up to 39.6 ℃, 43.2 ℃, and 48.1 ℃ quickly with different injected doses (2, 4 and 6 mg respectively) of nano-magnetic particles and maintained for 40 min. The temperature of tumor tissue reduced to 36.8 ℃, 37.5 ℃ and 37.8 ℃ in 10 min when alternating magnetic field (AMF) stopped. The tumor mass in Groups C ((452.50 ±30.29) mg), D ((240.98 ±35.32)mg), E((231.87 ±27.41) mg) and F ((141.55 ±23.78) mg) were much lower than that in Group A ((719.12±22.65) mg) (F=800.07, P<0. 01), with the most significant treatment effect in Group F.The tumor mass in Group B((684.05 ±24.02) mg) was higher than that in Group D (t =32. 805, P <0. 05). Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of HSV-tk in Groups B and D (0.33 ±0. 13 and 0. 46 ±0.12) was significantly different from that in Groups E and F (0.66 ±0.13 and 0.74 ±0. 11)(F = 21. 573, P < 0.05). Conclusion Combined use of hyperthermia, gene therapy and radionuclide brachytherapy could effectively depress the growth of MCF-7 breast carcinoma, thus possessing treatment potential for this tumor.

Objective:To study the compatibility and stability of coenzyme A for injection, adenosine disodium triphosphate and inosine injection. Methods:By simulating the clinical medication, the three drugs and 5% glucose injection were mixed together. The contents and relative substances of coenzyme A, adenosine disodium triphosphate and inosine were measured by HPLC. The changes in appearance, pH and insoluble particles were observed or tested at ambient temperature. Results:The mixed solution showed no signifi-cant changes in appearance, pH, number of insoluble particles, contents and relative substances of coenzyme A, adenosine disodium triphosphate and inosine in 4 h, while the mixed solution became turbid and the pH, number of insoluble particles and contents of the three drugs showed significant changes after 24-h storage. Conclusion:The mixed solution of coenzyme A for injection, adenosine dis-odium triphosphate and inosine injection in 5% glucose injection should be used up in 4 h at ambient temperature.

Objective To explore the relative expression of plasma miR-199a-5p and miR-200c-3p in gastric adenocarcinoma cancer(GAC) patients and its clinical value.Methods Case-control study was used in this research.The relative expression of plasma miR-199a-5p and miR-200c-3p from 47 GAC patients and 50 healthy controls were determined by RT-PCR ( TaqMan Probe method).Meanwhile, the association with age, gender, tumor location, size, degree of differentiation, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis and other clinical pathological parameters were analyzed.The expression of these two miRNAs in plasma of 30 GAC patients during preoperation was compared with their expression 6-8 days after radical surgery.The sensitivity and specificity of plasma miRNAs expression for the diagnosis of GAC were analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic ( ROC ) curve.SPSS20.0 statistical software was used for statistical analysis.T-test, paired t-test and one-factor ANOVA were used for normal distribution of quantitative data.Results The plasma level of miR-199a-5p in GAC patients was significantly lower(1.05 ±0.22) (t =3.058,P =0.003), while miR-200c-3p was significantly higher(15.15 ±3.02) (t =-2.854,P=0.006), when they were compared with those in controls(26.80 ±8.38, 3.39 ±0.87).Low miR-199a-5p expression in GAC patients were associated with lymph node metastasis ( F =4.725, P =0.029) and the differentiation degree of gastric cancer(F=3.854,P=0.032).The relative expression of miR-199a-5p in postoperative plasma was significantly increased(t=-3.814,P=0.001), but the relative expression of miR-200c-3p was significantly reduced when compared to the preoperative samples(t=2.978, P=0.006).Area under the ROC curve of miR-199a-5p, miR-200c-3p and combined miR-199a-5p and miR-200c-3p were 0.692, 0.792 and 0.798, the sensitivity and specificity were 87%,97%,92.5% and 43%,54%, 65%, respectively.Conclusion Combined detection of miR-199a-5p and miR-200c-3p in plasma has a higher sensitivity and specificity than the conventional tumor marker CEA and CA19-9, and may be a useful combination for gastric cancer diagnosis.

Objective :To explore the feasibility and clinical value of real time three‐dimensional transesophageal echo‐cardiography (RT‐3D TEE) in diagnosis of congenital heart valvular disease (CHVD).Methods :A total of 135 CH‐VD patients treated in our hospital were selected .All patients received surgery ,and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and RT‐3D TEE inspection successively within 7d before surgery .Heart valve lesion condition was observed , and diagnostic results of two methods and surgical outcome were compared and analyzed .Results :RT‐3D TEE could display the morphological structure ,lesion degree and peripheral blood flow of heart valves in CHVD patients in a multi‐angle ,stereoscopic and clear way .It could find heart valve disease which is difficult to be identified by TTE , and corrected the diagnostic deviation .With surgical results as the gold standard ,diagnostic coincidence rate of RT‐3D TEE was significantly higher than that of TTE (97. 04% vs.91. 11%, P=0.039).CHVD diagnosed by RT‐3D TEE and TTE possessed a intermediate consistency (Kappa=0.477 , P=0. 001).Conclusion :RT‐3D TEE can pro‐vide more imaging information for the diagnosis of CHVD ,which can be used as an effective supplement for preop‐erative TTE examination .
