Objective To explore the relationship between interleukin-1?(IL-1?) and group Ⅱ metabotropic glutamate receptors(mGluR2/3). Methods The rats were randomly divided into five groups:1^cotrol;2^group Glu;3^group IL-1?+Glu;4^group IL-1?;5^group IL-1?+D-AP5+Glu.The behavior of animals was observed.Expression of mGluR2/3 mRNA was assayed with RT-PCR. Results The alteration of behavior showed that the latent period of seizure in group with IL-1?+Glu was shortened significantly and the degree of seizure was also more serious as compared with that in group Glu.Expression of mGluR2/3 mRNA showed marked enhancement in group with IL-1?+Glu and group with Glu compared with control.However,expression of mGluR2 mRNA in group IL-1?+Glu was markedly decreased as compared to that in group Glu;the level of mGluR3 mRNA showed no apparent difference between group IL-1?+Glu and group Glu.Conclusion Present study suggests that IL-1? enhances the degree of seizure induced by glutamate,the mechanism may be due to its direct or indirect effects on down-regulation of expression of mGluR2 mRNA.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the blood drug monitoring results of vancomycin and clinical administration behavior and then to provide a clinical reference for its rational utilization. METHODS:We retrospectively collected the blood drug monitoring results of vancomycin and drugrelated information from July 2007 to October 2008 in our hospital. These data were from the electronic clinical pharmacy workstation and initial written case history. RESULTS:Among the 76 cases,non-clinical significant results due to doctor’s irregular manipulation in collecting blood sample accounted for 32.89%. In renal failure group,the rate of peak concentration above the effective blood concentration range was 44.46% . Every patient was averagely administered 21.85 kinds of drugs mainly by intravenous injection during vancomycin application. Clinical response rate of vancomycin was 65.00%. CONCLUSION:During the blood concentration monitoring of vancomycin,we should take clinical need into consideration,collect blood samples rightly,consider the factors such as special pathophysiologic status of patients,drug combination,and adjust the dosage timely.

Objective To probe the periodontal ligament regeneration following the implantation of bone marrow mesenchymal cells ( BMSCs ) sheet-collagen membrane-BMSCs sheet sandwich complex.Methods BMSCs cell sheet-collagen membrane-BMSCs sheet complexes were compounded on the root surface of teeth of Beagle dogs.All the dogs were killed on 4 and 12 weeks after implantation.Periodontal ligament regeneration was observed by radiological means, HE staining and Sirus-red staining.Results Compared with collagen membrane group and blank control group, there was a clearly periodontal ligament like tissue and Sharpey′s like fibres formation in test group only.Conclustion Cell sheet-collagen membrane-cell sheet sandwich complex can effectively improve the periodontal ligament regeneration.

Objective To investigate the clinical parameters,risk factors,treatment and clinical outcomes of pneumocystis pneumonia(PCP) in children without human immunodeficiency virus(HIV). Methods Retrospective a-nalysis was made for the clinical features,risk factors,treatment and prognoses of the non-HIV infected severe PCP pa-tients hospitalized at Pediatric Intensive Care Unit( PICU) of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pedi-atrics. Results During April of 2010 to April of 2014,there were 10 cases of non-HIV infected severe PCP in PICU of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics. All of the patients had predisposing diseases,in which 3 cases had connective tissue diseases,2 cases had acute leukemia,3 cases had severe pneumonia and 2 cases had con-genital immunodeficiency. The main clinical manifestations of those 10 patients were fever, cough, tachypnea and obvious dyspnea. All patients developed respiratory failure. The median value of Pediatric Critical Illness Score was 79. The median arterial oxygen pressure was 58 mmHg(1 mmHg=0. 133 kPa). The median oxygenation index was 103 mmHg. The median alveolo-arterial oxygen partial pressure difference was 43. 8 mmHg. The median CD4+T-lympho-cytes counts was 169 ×106/L. Eight patients on admission had mixed infection. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) occurred in all of the patients,and 7 cases of them had multiple organ dysfunctions. All of the patients re-quired ventilation support. The median day for invasive mechanical ventilation days was 11 and the median day for non-invasive ventilation days was 6. The pneumothorax occurred in 5 patients. All patients received trimethoprim-Sulfame-thoxazole as initial therapy and Caspofungin treatment in combination in 7 cases of the patients. Six patients had nosoco-mial infection. The median time of PICU stay was 15. 5 days. Six patients survived and the mortality was 40%(4/10 cases) . Conclusions PCP is a kind of fatal diseases which occurred in patients with immunocompromised conditions and concurrent ARDS or multiple organ dysfunctions. Diagnostic suspicion and mechanical ventilation therapy with lung protective ventilation strategies may improve the clinical outcomes of non-HIV-infected PCP in children.

BACKGROUND:At present, there stil remain controversies concerning the choice of tibial slope in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, and the related biomechanical studies are rare. OBJECTIVE:To find the rational tibial slope in mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty through the results of finite element analysis. METHODS:A finite element model of normal knee was established and validated using the techniques of three-dimensional reconstruction and finite element pre-processing. Then the finite element models of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty with different tibial slopes were established based on the normal knee model. The finite element analyses were conducted after the boundary conditions and loads were unified. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The finite element models of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty with different tibial slopes were established successfuly. The results of the finite element analyses indicated that the posteromedial tibial cortical and cancelous bone stress increased gradualy as the posterior slope increasing, as wel as the load distribution and the cartilage contact pressures of lateral compartment. The anteromedial tibial cortical stress increased significantly with the anterior slope. A posterior tibial slope of 0°-7° can be recommended when implanting a mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.

Objective To evaluate the significance of weight-bearing lateral radiographs in evaluation of malunited frac-tures of the ankle. Methods 17 patients with malunited fractures of the ankle were treated by different reconstructive operations be-tween March 2010 and October 2012, including 9 females and 8 males, aged from 17 to 64 years. According to the Takakura classifi-cation of ankle arthritis, there were 7 patients in grade 1, 4 in grade 2 and 6 in grade 3. Simple open reduction and internal fixation were performed in 5 patients, supramalleolar tibial osteotomy in 5, lengthening osteotomy of the fibula in 2, supramalleolar tibial and fibular osteotomy in 5. Tibiofibular clear space on the anteroposterior radiograph. Medial clear space, tibiofibular clear space and tib-iofibular overlap on ankle mortise radiographs were compared preoperatively and at last follow-up. Tibial lateral surface angle (TLS), the offset of the center of talar rotation from the tibial axis, and the displacement of tibiotalar articular surface center on weight-bear-ing lateral X-ray were also compared preoperatively and at last follow-up. AOFAS score was used to evaluate the function of the ankle. Results The duration of follow-up was 9 to 32 months. Bone healing was observed in all patients, and the average healing time was 11 to 14 weeks. Ankle joint degeneration grade had no exacerbation. The medial clear space, tibiofibular clear space and tibiofibular overlap had no significant difference between the pre and postoperative. Statistically significant change was seen postoperatively in the values of TLS (76.9°±4.1° vs 80.9°±5.2°). The offset of the center of rotation from the tibial axis and the displacement of tibiotalar articular surface center were changed from 10.8 ± 2.1 mm to 2.0 ± 0.5 mm and 4.5 ± 1.5 mm to 2.2 ± 1.0 mm, respectively. The average AOFAS score was improved from 45.7 ± 15.9 points preoperatively to 82.0 ± 9.9 points postoperatively. Conclusion Weight-bearing lateral radiographs can be used to judge the ankle restoration. Even if the mortise radiograph had relative good realignment, it may ap-pear obvious deformity on lateral radiographs. Good reduction of lateral radiographs requires that the mid axis of the tibia should pass through the center of talar rotation and tibiotalar articular surface be parallel on the lateral radiograph.
