Objective To explore laboratory diagnosis tests for lupus anticoagulant associated by coagulation factors(F Ⅷ,F Ⅸ and F Ⅺ)deficiency.Methods We investigated the coagulation factors'activity,coagulation factors'antibodies,anticardiolipin antibodies,lupus anticoagulant and thrombin generation in thirteen patients of lupus anticoagulant associated by coagulation factors(F Ⅷ,F Ⅸ and F Ⅺ)deficiency,ten hemophilia A patients, forty-eight healthy people. In these thirteen patients,there were five patients with schizophrenia and had been taking chlorderazin for a long time,two patients with antiphospholipid syndrome, one patient with pemphigus, five patients in which causes of disease were unknown.Among these patients,two patients has haemorrhage,eleven patients don't have reduced.The antibodies of these coagulation factors and LA were positive.Six patients in this group were ACA poslhve,and seven patients were ACA negative.The lag time of eleven non-haemorrage patients with LA positive associated by F Ⅷ,F Ⅸ and F Ⅺ deficiency was(5.60±1.18)min,higher than that of control group which was(1.88±0.25)min.This differenee had statistically significant(t=10.05,P<0.01).The time to peak was(8.11±1.91)min,significantly higher than that of control group which was (4.10±0.36)min(t=8.83,P<0.01).The endogenous thrombin potential(ETP)was(1 640.87±higher than that of hemophilia A patients which was(38.50±6.20)%(t=9.77,P<0.01).The time to peak of hemophilia A patients was(8.01±1.81)min,significantly higher than that of control group which Was(4.10±0.36)min(t=8.20,P<0.01).The lag time of control group and hemophilia A patients was (1.88±0.25)min and(2.01±0.84)min,respectively.There was no significant difierence of the lag time between these two groups(t=1.26,P>0.05).Conclusions Diseases like lupus anticoagulant associated bv coagulation factors(F Ⅷ,F Ⅸ and F Ⅺ)deficiency and inherited hemophilia should use APTT,PT,should be used as confirmation tests. LA and ACA may serve as indication test for identifying the causes of these diseases. ETP and ETP percentage are quite good parametem for predicting the bleeding risk of patients with LA positive associated by coagulation factors(F Ⅷ,F Ⅸ and F Ⅺ)deficiency.

Objective To assess the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the neuropsychiatric inventory (CNPI). Methods The CNPI was administered to 219 caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Each caregiver was retested 4 weeks after initial testing. Results The Cronbach a coefficient of the total symptom scale was 0.69. The Cronbach α coefficient of the total caregiver distress subscale was 0.72. The Cronbach α coefficient of the entire inventory was 0. 82. The test-retest coefficients ranged from 0.66 to 0.98 (P < 0.01). Principal axis factoring analysis of the symptom subscale yielded a five-factor solution which contributed to 67.0% of the cumulative variance. Factor 1, which included aberrant motor behavior, hallucinations, delusion and irritability had the most significant contribution to the cumulative variance. Principal axis factoring analysis of the caregiver distress subscale also yielded a five-factor solution which contributed to 70.2% of the cumulative variance. Factor 1, which included depression, delusion, sleep/night behavior, aberrant motor behavior, and irritability had the most significant contribution to the cumulative variance. Conclusion This Chinese version of NPI is a reliable and valid tool for measuring neuropsychiatric disturbances in patients with AD.

Objective To design a new method of posterior wall reconstruction for severely corn-minuted and obsolete fracture of the posterior wall of the aeetabulum. Methods (1) Biomechanical study (from two perspectives: the stability and the stress distribution on the femoral head and the acetabu-lure) : six fresh adult' s pelvis and femur specimens were collected and divided into experimental group ( consisted of the left sides) and control group ( consisted of the right sides). After the defects of the pos-terior wall were made, the defects were anatomically reconstructed with the harvested ilium by acetabular tridimentional memory fixation system (ATMFS) in the experimental group, whereas the acetabular frag-ments were repositioned to the defect sites and fixated by the plates and screws in the control group. Lon-gitudinal and latitudinal displacement, stability of the anatomically reconstructed posterior wall of the ace-tabulum, the fitness of femoral head to the acetabulum after anatomical reconstruction and mean and maxi-mum pressure of anterior wall, posterior and cupuh of the acetabuhm were analysed and compared. (2) Cinical study: The posterior wall defect on the harvested ilium piece was repaired with 3-directional loc-king of ATMFS in 10 male patients (at age of 16-50 years, mean 36.4 years) from January 2000 to June 2002. There were seven patients with flesh acetabular fractures and three with old acetabular fractures.The period from fracture to reconstruction for the patients with old fractures was 58-251 days ( 137.7 days an average). The patients were foUowed up for 5.8 years (average 5.2-7.1 years). Results (1) Biomechanical study showed no statistical difference upon stability and fitness of femoral head to acetabu-lum after reconstruction in experimental and control groups. (2) Clinical study: postoperative X-ray film showed no repeated displacement of the fracture and the patients began out-of-bed movement with weight bearing after 1.6 months (1.2-2.1 months). Heterotopic ossification was found in two patients, with no influence on the joint function. According to the elinieal ranking standard of Modified d' Aubigne and Postal, the excellence rate was 93%. Conclusions Anatomical reconstruction of posterior wall of the acetabulum by using serf ilium with ATMS has good stability and stress distribution of the femoral head and the reconstructed acetabulum in clinical application and offers a new method for treatment of severely comminuted and obsolete fracture of posterior wall of acetabulum.

Objective:To establish a three-dimensional model of locking plate fixation for 42A2 type oblique tibial fractures with different fracture line directions and different angles between the fracture line and the long axis of the tibia. Finite element analysis was used to calculate and analyze the biomechanics of locking plate, screw, and tibia, providing theoretical basis for clinical application.Methods:A healthy adult volunteer, 25 years old, male, with a height of 173 cm and a weight of 69.5 kg, was selected to perform computed tomography (CT) scans on the left tibia. Relevant data were obtained to establish a locking steel plate fixation model for 42A2 type tibia with different oblique fracture line directions and different angles between the fracture line and the long axis of the tibia. Eight hole pure titanium plates were used for fixation, respectively. We compared the Mises stress changes of locking plates, screws, and tibia in different angle fracture models.Results:In the case of a 42A2 type fracture in the left oblique direction with a fracture line from outside to inside, the maximum Mises stress in the tibia was 114 MPa, the maximum Mises stress in the screw was 279.8 MPa, and the maximum Mises stress in the locking steel plate was 302.4 MPa; In the case of a 42A2 type fracture in the right oblique fracture with a fracture line from the bottom to the top, the maximum Mises stress of the tibia was 93.41MPa, the maximum Mises stress of the screw was 353.4 MPa, and the maximum Mises stress of the locking steel plate was 411.8 MPa.Conclusions:Regardless of the oblique fractures in both left and right directions, the maximum stress values are: locking plate>screw>tibia; When the position of the locking steel plate is fixed, the maximum stress values of the locking steel plate and screw are both right oblique fracture>left oblique fracture; And the maximum stress values all increase with the increase of angle.
