Objective To analyze the clinical therapeutic effect of close reduction and perculaneous Kirschner wire fixation in treating humeral supracondylar fracture in children.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 28 children who had humeral supracondylar fracture treater in our department from January 2006 to December 2008.They were 2 to 13 years old (mena age:7 years and 5 months). According to Garland typing ,3 children had type I fracture ,11 type II and 14 type III. Closed reduction was performed guided by C-arm X-ray machine. Then the fracture was perculaneously fixed with 2 or 3 Kirschner wires of 1.5mm,and the elbow and wrist joints were fixed in the functional position with upper limb plaster.Results All patients were followed up for average 4~12months. All patients obtained bone union. No Volkmann contracture os iatrogenic nerve injury occurred. Conclusion Close reduction and percutaneous Kirschner wires fixation for humeral supracondylar fracture in children has the advantages of small injury and stable bone fixation.In addition,it can prevent Volkmann contracture and achieve good elbow joint function recovery.

BACKGROUND:Silver ion dressing can reduce tissue necrosis, accelerate the epithelial formation, relieve the patient’s pain during the treatment, and strengthen various growth factors for wound repair, which is based on the theory of wet healing theory. It has obvious advantages for chronic wound healing, such as anti-infection and promoting wound granulation and epithelial hyperplasia.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy of silver ion dressing used in healing of chronic wound.
METHODS:A total of 40 patients who had chronic wounds were selected from Tangshan Branch Hospital of Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command. Al cases were divided into two groups. The treatment group was treated with silver ion dressing, and the control group was treated with routine dressing. Secretions extracted from wound were used for bacterial culture prior to and 7, 14, and 21 days after treatment. Healing condition and velocity were observed and wound pain was assessed using visual analog scale.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The detection rate of wound bacteria in the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). And the time of healing was shorter in the treatment group than the control group (P<0.05). Wound pain during dressing change was relieved (P<0.05). Medical costs showed no difference between the two groups (P>0.05). No adverse reaction occurred in the two groups. These findings indicate that silver ion dressing used in chronic wound healing can prevent infection and promote wound granulation or epithelial hyperplasia. It can effectively promote wound healing and has no bad reaction.

Objective To explore the value of MRI combined with tumor markers in the differential diagnosis of borderline ovarian tumor(BOT)and stage I epithelial ovarian carcinoma(EOC),increase the rate of preoperative diagnosis.Methods Fifty -six patients with BOT(BOT group)and forty -seven patients with stage I EOC(EOC group)confirmed pathologically underwent tumor markers and MRI examination were selected.The MRI imaging features and tumor markers level were compared between the two groups.Results BOTand EOC group onset age were (39.45 ±11.83),(44.38 ±12.44)years old respectively,two groups had statistically significant difference(t =2.05,P <0.05).The location of tumor,size,number of septation had no differences between the two groups(all P >0.05).However,the solid components were larger (76.0 ±54.9)mm and the septations were thicker (6.2 ± 3.5)mm in EOC group than in BOT group (49.0 ±47.2)mm,(3.6 ±3.5)mm(t =-2.642,-3.784,all P <0.05),and solid components and thick septations were more frequently seen in EOC group(59.6%)than 37.5% in BOT group(χ2 =4.992,P <0.05).The serum CA125 and CA199 levels between the two groups had no statistically significant differences(all P >0.05).The serum HE4 levels between BOT group[(86.9 ±82.2)pmol/L]and EOC group[(166.3 ±87.1)pmol/L]had statistically significant difference (t =-4.723,P <0.05).MRI prompt tumors maximum diameter and thickness of the separated solid ingredients combined serum HE4 levels to identify two groups of AUC of the tumor and its sensitivity,specificity were 0.820,72.3%,80.4%,respectively.Conclusion The fea-tures like younger,increased solid components,thickened septum and higher serum HE4 level may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of BOT and stage I EOC.

BACKGROUND: The mitochondrial DNA with multiple copy number, maternal inheritance, high mutation rate, restructuring and other rare features, has important significance at levels of molecular ecology, molecular genetics, forensic and anthropological research.OBJECTIVE: To comprehensively analyze mitochondrial DNA in the development of research methods, and to explore the application of anthropological research.METHODS: With the key words of mitochondrial DNA, polymorphism, and haplogroup in English, a computer-based online search was conducted in Pubmed database from January 1999 to April 2009. Anthropology relevant articles were included, but animal experiments were excluded.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Among the first inspection of 235 documents, 33 met the inclusion criteria. Mitochondrial DNA characterized by multiple copy number, maternal inheritance, high mutation rate, and very few re-occurring features, thus by analyzing the scope and frequency of information, it could be used to infer the relationship between the different populations, as well as the reconstruction of mass incidents. Mitochondrial DNA variation information extraction method had experienced low RFLP, high-resolution RFLP, sequencing and RFLP and sequencing of hypervariable region. Mitochondrial DNA polymorphisms played an important role in interfering phylogenetic relationships, different groups of national origin and migration routes.Mitochondrial DNA database of various groups around the world did not restrict the full application in anthropology. Mathematical statistical model which was used to improve existing, build and enrich various groups of mitochondrial DNA database all over the world is the main direction for future research. Mitochondrial DNA is significance in molecular ecology, molecular genetics, forensic science and anthropology, as well as the study of tissue engineering, especially in the study of human origins and comparative phylogenetic relationships of different populations.

BACKGROUND:Vacuum-sealing drainage in wound skin grafting can close wound, reduce the leakage, promote granulation hyperplasia and improve skin new speed.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical effects of two kinds of wound surface dressings used in wound skin grafting.
METHODS: Eighty patients who needed skin grafting for trauma were retrospectively studied and chosen from September 2010 to March 2012. They were divided into two groups: biomaterial group (dressings mainly made of luffa fibers) and synthetics group (seaweed polyvinyl alcohol foam). The vacuum-sealing drainage device and wound dressing were removed after 1 week treatment. The skin grafting coverage and wound healing time were recorded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al patients of two groups got effective skin grafting coverage rate, and no patient appeared with infection and nonunion. The skin grafting coverage and wound healing time of the biomaterial group significantly differed from the synthetics group (P< 0.05). These findings indicate that compared to the synthetic material group, the biomaterial group can be better for effective drainage, good circulation, bacteria inhibition and fast repair.

Objective To investigate the effect of rhein on endothelial plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) mRNA expression and protein synthesis induced by transforming growth factor ?1 (TGF-?1), and explore the protective mechanism of rhein on human endothelial cells. Methods A human umbilical endothelium derived cell line (ECV-304) from ATCC was used in this study. The endothelial PAI-1 mRNA expression and protein synthesis were detected by Northern blot and flowcytometry analysis respectively. The activity of phospho-p44/p42 MAPK induced by TGF-?1 was determined by immunoprecipitation analysis and Western blot. Results TGF-?1 (2?g/L) could increase rapidly endothelial PAI-1 mRNA expression and persist for 24 hours. The PAI-1 mRNA expression induced by TGF-?1 in endothelial cells was inhibited by incubating with rhein. Rhein could also inhibit the endothelial PAI-1 protein synthesis. Further study revealed rhein showed a significantly inhibitory effect on the activity of phospho-p44/p42 MAPK induced by TGF-?1 in human endothelial cells. Conclusions Rhein shows a protective action on endothelial cells by inhibiting PAI-1 overexpression, and this may provide beneficial effects on the treatment of diabetes mellitus and its complications.
