[Objective]To retrospectively analyze 39 cases of surgical treatment of fibrous dysplasia of proximal femur,in order to propose a partition method which can be used to guide the surgical treatment,and probe the surgical treatment strategy according to the partition method of fibrous dysplasia of proximal femur. [Methods]The data on 39 cases of fibrous dysplasia of proximal femoral from 1998 to 2009 were retrospectively analyzed.The study determined extent of the lesion according to preoperative X-ray film and proposed partitioning method in accordance with the scope of proximal femoral involvement,analyzed the relation of partition type and surgical treatment,and evaluated the effect of surgical treatment through the postoperative localized lesions control and functional score(MSTS 93).[Results]According to the scope of 39 cases of lesions,combined with characteristics of proximal femoral anatomy,proximal femur was divided into four zones: area I,femoral shaft(below small protuberance);area II,intertrochanteric(small rotor to the neck base division);area III,femoral neck;area IV,the femoral head.Based on the above partition,lesions were divided into 7 types,type I,type II,type III,type I + II,type II + III,type II + III + IV,type I + II + III,type I + II + III + IV.Surgical treatment was performed mainly with curettage of bone lesions,bone grafting and fixation.Internal fixation included DHS,intramedullary nails,and artificial joint replacement,DHS was most common in area II involvement(57.58%),followed by area III involvement(24.24%).Intramedullary nail was most common in area I involvement(64.70%) and area II involvement(35.30%).For lesions involving ≥3 zones,joint replacement was carried out.The patients were all followed up,with a median time of 6.3 years(0.5-11 years).Local recurrence rate was12.82%(5 / 39),local deformity was not found deterious.The followed up results were satisfactory.The selected treatment was reasonable.[Conclusion]When making a surgical treatment regimen for fibrous dysplasia of the proximal femur,Surgeons should consider lesion characteristics,and choose a reasonable internal fixation to achieve better surgical results.Partition method proposed in this paper can be formulated as one of preoperative surgical treatment options.

Objective T o understand the assessm ent on the criminal responsibility of drug-induced m ental disorders and judicial experts’ opinions. Methods T he judicial experts from institutes of forensic psychi-atry in Shanghai were selected. T hey were asked to finish a self-m ade questionnaire of assessm ent on the criminal responsibility of drug-induced m ental disorders by letters and visits. Results Most of experts knewthe special regulation,“not suitable for evaluation” towards the criminal responsibility of drug-in-duced m ental disorders of the guideline prom ulgated by Ministry of Justice. B efore and after the guide-line was issued, no expert m ade a no-responsibility opinion in such cases. After the guideline was issued, som e experts m ade a full-responsibility or lim ited-responsibility opinion in such cases. T here was a little disagreem ent am ong the experts in the case that the crime was unrelated with m ental sym ptom s or the criminals used drugs even though he knewit could induced insanity. B ut there were still m any obvious disagreem ents am ong experts in the case that crime was related to such sym ptom s and person was no ability to debate. Most experts agreed to settle the disagreem ents with im proved legislative perfection. Conclusion Most experts are not strictly com plying with the assessm ent guidelines during their practice, and there is still an obvious disagreem ent towards the criminal responsibility of drug-induced m ental disorders.

An actinomycete B37 was isolated from an intertidal marine sponge Hymeniacidon perleve, which has strong activity against Gram positive bacteria and moderate activity against tumor cells. The mycelium and spore morphology, physiological properties and 16SrDNA sequence suggested that B37 is Streptomyces pseudogriseolus. The fermentation conditions of this strain were investigated for the biosynthesis of bioactive metabolites.

Objective To investigate the value of differential diagnosis of the configuration of QRS complex in lead aVR in patients with inferior wall myocardial infarction. Methods The configuration of QRS in 52 patients with pathological Q-wave both in lead Ⅲ and aVF were analyzed and the result of selective coronary arteriography was compared. Results 13 patients with the configuration of QRS in lead aVR appeared rS ( s), while 10 patients appeared QS(qs) and 29 Q(q)r,correlated with 12,4 and 0 patients with coronary arteriography showed stenosis or occlusion lesion in fight coronary artery or left circumflex artery (χ2 = 35.56, P = 0.000). Conclusions The con-figuration of QRS in lead aVR is helpful to differential diagnosis of the patients with pathological Q-wave both in lead Ⅲ and aVF. Patients with the configuration of QRS in lead aVR appear rS(s) could be diagnosed as old myocardial infarction,but excluded from old myocardial infarction while appearing Q(q)r.

Objective To explore the extent of axillary lymph node dissection in breast cancer patients with positive sentinel lymph nodes.Methods In this series,95 patients underwent complete axillary lymph node dissection (CALND) following positive sentinel lymph nodes identified and 97 patients underwent partial axillary lymph node dissection (PALND) at the absence of positive sentinel lymph nodes.The influence of different extent of axillary lymph node dissection was evaluated.Results The positive rate of level(Ⅰ + Ⅱ) non-sentinel lymph nodes (NSLN) and level Ⅲ lymph nodes was 68.4％ and 29.5％,respectively,in CALND group.In PALND situation,57.9％ CALND cases would have changed pathologic stage from pN1 to pN2 or pN3.But with level Ⅲ lymph node dissection followed PALND,only 2.1％ cases had changed pathologic stage from pN2 to pN3.Multivariate logistic regression showed that the number of positive SLNs (OR =2.157) and positive rate of SLNs (OR =10.374) were risk factors for having positive level Ⅲ lymph nodes.CALND needed longer operation time and larger postoperative drainage volume.Conclusions In cases of breast cancer with ≥ 3 positive sentinel lymph nodes,complete axillary lymph node dissection should be considered.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the assessment on the criminal responsibility of drug-induced mental disorders and judicial experts' opinions. METHODS: The judicial experts from institutes of forensic psychiatry in Shanghai were selected. They were asked to finish a self-made questionnaire of assessment on the criminal responsibility of drug-induced mental disorders by letters and visits. RESULTS: Most of experts knew the special regulation, "not suitable for evaluation" towards the criminal responsibility of drug-induced mental disorders of the guideline promulgated by Ministry of Justice. Before and after the guideline was issued, no expert made a no-responsibility opinion in such cases. After the guideline was issued, some experts made a full-responsibility or limited-responsibility opinion in such cases. There was a little disagreement among the experts in the case that the crime was unrelated with mental symptoms or the criminals used drugs even though he knew it could induced insanity. But there were still many obvious disagreements among experts in the case that crime was related to such symptoms and person was no ability to debate. Most experts agreed to settle the disagreements with improved legislative perfection. CONCLUSION Most experts are not strictly complying with the assessment guidelines during their practice, and there is still an obvious disagreement towards the criminal responsibility of drug-induced mental disorders.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of locking plate fixation through lateral deltoid approach for proximal humeral fracture combined with micro-invasive percutaneous plating (MIPPO) technique.

METHODSFrom April 2009 to March 2012,26 patients with proximal humeral fractures were treated with proximal humeral locking system plate fixation through lateral deltoid approach, including 17 males and 9 females with an average age of 58 years old ranging from 28 to 76 years old. The time from injury to operation was 3 to 10 days (averaged 5.6 days). According to Neer typing for the proximal humeral fractures, 7 cases had 2 parts of fracture,15 had 3 parts of fracture,and 4 had 4 parts of fracture. The Neer score for shoulder function was evaluated.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up,and the duration ranged from 10 to 21 months (averaged 13.6 months). All patients were achieved bony union,the average healing time was 12.5 weeks (ranged from 10 to 21 weeks). No humeral head necrosis and axillary nerve injury occurred. According to Neer scoring system,the total score was 88.36 +/- 7.82, pain 30.82 +/- 3.24, function 23.76 +/- 5.71, activity 17.59 +/- 5.36, anatomical position 7.03 +/- 2.39; the result was excellent in 18 cases, good in 5 cases, fair in 2 cases, poor in 1 case.

CONCLUSIONLateral deltoid approach combined with locking plate fixation for treatment of proximal humeral fracture has advantages of small invasion,less blood lossing, short operative time, stable fixation, high rate of fracture healing, and satisfactory functional recovery.

Investigation of simvastatin and its related substances was carried out using a reversed phase ultra performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method. The identification of impurities in simvastatin was performed with a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer, with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source in the negative/positive ion mode. A total of 12 compounds were characterized in commercial samples, among which 2 impurities had never been reported. All the impurities were deduced based on the MS fragment pathways of simvastatin and the biosynthetic pathway of lovastatin. This work provides very useful information for quality control of simvastatin.
