BACKGROUND:There are many methods that can repair Pilon fracture, but the effects are not ideal. With the development of science and technology, fundamental change of fracture fixation principle and innovation of technology and idea has brought new opportunities for Pilon fracture repair. Biological immobilization technology can further reduce the further damage to blood supply of bone outer membrane on the fracture end, do not disturb biomechanical environment of fracture healing, and is the new trend of present research and development. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of locking compression plate fixation for repair of Pilon fracture using biological fixation technique. METHODS:Clinical data of 76 patients with Pilon fracture treated using locking compression plate fixation in the Nanhai District Economic Development Zone Guanyao Branch of the People’s Hospital from June 2008 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 49 males and 27 females, at the age of 39.5 years on average (range from 19 to 60 years). According to Ruedi-Algower classification, there were 54 cases of type II and 22 cases of type III. In accordance with biological fixation technique, locking compression plate fixation was applied to treat Pilon fracture. Folowing treatment, they were regularly folowed up. Reduction quality was assessed by Burwel-Charnley radiological criteria. X-ray films were reviewed to observe fracture healing. During final folow-up, ankle function was evaluated according to Baird-Jackson score. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 76 patients were folowed up for 6 to 24 months. Reduction quality assessed by Burwel-Charnley radiological criteria was as folows: anatomic reduction of 68 cases, reduction of 8 cases, 71 cases of one-stage wound healing, and 5 cases of wound healing after dressing change, with the rate of one-stage healing of 93%. Fractures of al patients were healed. The healing time was 4 to 8.5 months, averagely 6.25 months. During final folow-up, ankle function assessed by Baird-Jackson score was as folows: there were 69 excelent cases, 5 good cases and 2 average cases. These results indicate that locking compression plate fixation for Pilon fracture obtained good stability, could effectively avoid the damage of fracture end blood supply, shorten the healing time; it was simple to operate, had smal injury to soft tissue, and was an effective fixation method to repair Pilon fracture.

Objective To reproduce and validate the hexokinase reference method for glucose detection and compare other 5 routine glucose kits with this reference method. Methods The CDC hexokinase reference method for glucose detection was established and the performance was validated through testing a standard reference material (SRM) and participating in the IFCC ring-trial for reference laboratories for glucose evaluation. The CLSI EP 9-A2 protocol was used to compare the 5 routine glucose kits with the hexokinase reference method. Forty serum samples were analyzed by 5 routine kits and the hexokinase reference method. Results When SRM 965a was determined by the reference method,the bias of level 2 and level 3 were 0. 93%, -0. 23% respectively. The results for IFCC ring trial were within the accepted range. For the 5 routine kits, the confidence intervals of the predictive bias at the medical decision point Xc (Xc = 6. 11 mmol/L) were all within the range of defined acceptable error (10%) and the range of biological variation bias (6.9%). Conclusions The hexokinase reference method for serum glucose was reproduced in our lab. The serum glucose results measured with 5 routine kits were different from results detected with the reference method, but the bias was acceptable,and it will not affect the detection results.

Objective To investigate the arthroscopic inside-out repairing technique(hybrid suture technique) for bucket-handle tear of inside meniscus and present the short-term clinical outcome. Methods Twenty patients with 20 repairable inside meniscus tears were enrolled. With arthroscopic technique,the midbody portion and anterior portion of the lesion were repaired using standard inside-out technique with vertical and interlacing tibial and femoral side arrangement. For the most posterior portion, all-inside suture technique with two posterior portals were performed. For isolated red-white zone tears,fibrin clot was implanted into the repaired region for enhancing the healing pro-ACL injuries were reconstructed simultaneously. Results Twenty patients with 20 meniscal repairs were available for 5-36 (19.2 ± 2.3)months follow-up. Eighteen cases were asymptomatic at the latest clinical evaluation,and joint space tenderness in 2 cases. Twenty cases received MRI evaluation during follow-up, showing that 15 menisci were completely healed, 5 partially healed. Postoperative Lysholm scores of the knee joint function [82-97(90.3 ±1.5) points] were significantly improved compared with their preoperative scores [45-69 (56.7 ± 2.0)points] (P = 0.024).Conclusion For meniscal tears involving red-red and red-white zones,arthroscopic hybrid suture technique provides stable strength along the whole length of injured region, and consequently achieves satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Objective To investigate the most appropriate low radiation dose in multi-slice CT (MSCT) scans for orbital trauma patients. Methods Thirty trauma patients with suspected orbital fractures who underwent helical CT scans with a 64-MSCT using regular dose were selected. Noise was artificially introduced to the axial images using an image space noise addition tool to simulate 6 sets of lower dose scans with tube current of 30, 70, 100, 140, 170 and 200 mA, respectively. The lowest tube current with adequate image quality for confident diagnosis was determined based on the evaluation of the overall image quality and fracture detection on images at different dose levels. The determined lowest tube current was then validated using clinical scans. Radiation dose related parameters CTDIvol, DLP, ED were also recorded.Image quality was evaluated according to its low-density resolution, noise and structure clarity and characterized into 5-grades of excellent, good, fair, worse and worst Rank sum test and X2 test were wsed for statistics. Results In 30 trauma patients with regular dose of 300 mA, there were 30 cases of orbital fracture, 19 cases of intraorbital emphysema, 12 cases of ocular muscle injury and 1 case of intraorbital foreign body. These changes could still be clearly observed and correctly diagnosed when the tube current was reduced to as low as 70 mA. However, the overall image quality was mostly fair. At the simulated dose of 100 mA, the majority of images were characterized as excellent or good, and there was no statistical difference compared with that of regular dose scans (P > 0.05 ) . In the clinical evaluation for 20 orbital trauma patients with the reduced tube current of 100 mA, the majority of images were judged to be excellent (9 cases) or good(17 cases) and fair (4 cases). The radiation dose(0. 29 mSv) was reduced by 70% compared with that of regular tube current of 300 mA(0. 86 mSv). Conclusion The tube current of MSCT may be used as low as 100 mA in orbital trauma patients to reduce radiation dose and keep the image quality diagnosable.

Background and purpose:The gastric cancer is the highest incidence of malignant tumors in the world. The main treatment methods for gastric cancer are operation and chemotherapy. But the effect is not good. With the rapid development of economy and molecular biology, early diagnosis and molecular targeted therapy for gastric cancer has become a research hotspot. The oncogene overexpression and the anti-oncogene lower expression are closely related with gastric cancer.CDC4/FBXW7 is an anti-oncogene, butc-Myc is an oncogene. The previous research showed that CDC4 affected the expression of many oncogenes, such as Cyclin E. This study aimed to investigate the expression of CDC4 and c-Myc in gastric cancer and to elucidate the potential relationship between their expressions and clinical pathological characteristics.Methods:Semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (sRT-PCR), immunohistochemistry and Western blot method were used to determine the mRNA and protein expressions of CDC4 and c-Myc in 40 specimens of gastric carcinoma tissues, corresponding adjacent tissues and normal mucosal tissues. The expressions of CDC4 and c-Myc and the clinical pathological characteristics were analyzed.Results:The protein expressions of CDC4 in gastric cancer tissues were signiifcantly lower than those in adjacent tissues and normal mucosal tissues (P<0.05), whereas the protein expression of c-Myc in gastric cancer tissues was signiifcantly higher than that in adjacent tissues and normal mucosal tissues (P<0.05). The protein and mRNA expression of CDC4 and c-Myc were correlated with differentiation, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, inifltration, but not with patients’ gender, age and site of cancer (P<0.05). There was a signiifcant negative correlation between CDC4 and c-Myc at the mRNA and protein expression levels (P<0.05).Conclusion:The lower expression of CDC4 is correlated with differentiation, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis and inifltration. c-Myc overexpression is likely to be the CDC4 loss. It suggests that the loss of CDC4 may be a valuable marker for assessing the diagnosis and treatment and the prognosis of gastric cancer.
