Objective To evaluate the efficacy of intravenous laser treatment for varicose great saphenous veins of lower limbs. Methods .Intravenous laser treatment in combination with surgical procedure was used to treat 126 cases of varicose great saphenous vein (150 limbs) in this hospital between July 2002 and May 2004. Results .The operation time was 30~50 min (mean, 45 min). A follow-up for 3~19 months (mean, 6 months) in 120 cases (142 limbs) was carried out. Out of the 142 limbs, symptoms of soreness and lacking in strength completely disappeared in 134 limbs (94.4%) and partially subsided in 8 limbs (5.6%). A complete disappearance of symptoms of skin pigmentation and swelling was achieved in 45 limbs (90.0%, 45/50) and 97 limbs (96.4%, 97/101), respectively. The varicose superficial veins vanished in all the limbs without recurrence. Complications included skin burn on the medial malleolus (2 cases) or anterior shank (2 cases), numbness and hypoesthesia on the medial shank (3 cases), and subcutaneous cord-like hard tubercles (32 cases, which were completely softened and absorbed 3 months later). Conclusions .Intravenous laser treatment is a reliable method in the treatment of varicose great saphenous veins, with simplicity of performance, good safety, little influence of normal activities, and excellent cosmetic results.

[Objective]To investigate the chondrogenic ability and feasibility of bone mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) in three kinds of cellular carrier.[Method]BMSCs were separated and cultured into the third generation,which were cultivated in three knids of carriers by multi-point injection into and dropping on the surface of carriers(fibrin collagen sponge,group A;fibrin collagen sponge and FGF,group B and gelatin sponge,group C).All samples were analyzed after four weeks.[Result]There were a few chondrogenic cells in group A,much more chondrogenic cells in group B,and no cells in group C.According to analysis with SPSS 10.0 software,There were more cartilage cells(92.75?10.57) in group B than in group A(36.45?8.34).It was statistical different(P

Objective To discuss the feasibility and long-term effect of free latissimus dorsi muscle flap in repair of severe lower extremity injury in children. Methods From July 1999 to June 2004, nine child patients (at age of 6-13 years) with severe lower extremity injury involving soft tissue defects a-round the calf and the foot associated with complex open fractures, bare dislocation, and injury of the nerve, tendon and artery were repaired with free latissimus donsi flap, with flap area ranging from 30 cm ×12 cm to 10 cm × 5 cm. Results All the latissimus dorsi flaps survived, with success rate of 100%. A follow-up for 4-9 years showed that the flap had sound shape and function and normal blood supply, without significant influence on donor area. Conclusion Latissimus dorsi flap has advantages of constant anatomical site, abundant blood supply, massive area, strong anti-infection ability and less in-fluence on donor area and hence is an ideal method for repairing severe lower extremity injury in children.

Objective To investigate the effect of di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) on the proliferation of SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma cells and its underlying mechanism. Methods Cells were cultured in estrogen-free improved Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium and then divided into 5 groups: no treatment (control group); treated with 17β-estradiol (E_2 group); treated with DEHP (DEHP group); treated with both E_2 and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002 (E_2 + LY294002 group); treated with both DEHP and LY294002 (DEHP + LY294002 group). The absorbance value (AV) was measured on day 0, 2, and 5. DNA proliferation index (PI) and apoptotic index (AI) were determined by flow cytometry on day 5. Caspase-3 protein, protein-serine-threonine kinase (Akt) and phosphor-Akt (Ser473) protein expression were analyzed by Western blot on day 5. Results The AV of All groups increased on day 2, and 5. The AV of E_2 and DEHP groups were higher than that of the control group (P<0. 001), but the AV of E_2 + LY294002 and DEHP + LY294002 groups were lower than those of E_2 and DEHP groups (P<0.01) on day 2 and 5. On day 5, PI of E_2 and DEHP groups were also higher than that of control (P<0.01). However, PI of E_2 + LY294002 and DEHP + LY294002 groups were lower than those of E_2 and DEHP group (P<0.01) on day 5. There was no significant difference in AI and caspase-3 protein expression among the groups. At the same time, phosphor-Akt (Ser473) protein expression of E_2 and DEHP groups increased obviously, compared with the control group. Compared with E_2 and DEHP groups, E_2 + LY294002 and DEHP + LY294002 groups decreased significantly. However, Akt protein expression was equal among those groups. Conclusions DEHP can promote the growth of SK-N-SH cells to a level similar to that of E_2, with activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging in detecting local recurrence in patients with T3N0M0 prostate cancer after cryotherapy.Methods Sixty-five patients with T3N0M0 prostate cancer underwent cryotherapy.The preoperative data of conventional MRI,MRS,transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy were collected.After cryotherapy,the prostate specific antigen (PSA) of all patients was detected monthly.If PSA ＞5 μg/L,MRI,MRS,and TRUS-guided prostate biopsy were planned within a week.If PSA was unremarkable,MRI,MRS,and TRUS-guided prostate biopsy were planned 12 months after cryotherapy.The prostate was divided 6 regions and the cancerous and noncancerous were marked.The signal-to-noise ratio(S/N) of choline (Cho),citrate (Cit)and the ratios of Cho + creatine ( Cre)/Cit of each regions were measured in pre-operation and postoperation.The patients were divided into non-recurrence and recurrence group according to TRUS-guided biopsy.The S/N of Cho,Cit,and the ratio of Cho + Cre/Cit were compared between the groups before and after cryotherapy by using independent samples t-test.Results ( 1) Fifteen patients were confirmed local recurrence 12 months after cryotherapy,including 11patients with an evaluate PSA level and 4 patients with PSA umemarkable.(2) The S/N of Cho,Cit and the ratios of Cho + Cre/Cit in the cancerous and noncancerous regions before cryotherapy in the sixty-five patients were 25 + 9,11+ 5,and 18 + 5,and 39 ±12,2.33 +0.60,and 0.53 ± 0.19.There had significant difference between that of two groups ( t values were 11.36,9.81,and 13.39,respectively,P =0.00).(3) In the patients with non-recurrence,The S/N of Cho,Cit in the cancerous and noncancerous regions were 4 ± 2 and 3 ± 2 ( t =1.024,P =0.305 ),and 2 +2 and 4 ±3 (t =1.147,P =0.178) and no difference was found.In necrotic area,the ratios of Cho + Cre/Cit could not be calculated because of low level of the S/N of Cho and Cit.(4)In the patients with local recurrence after cryotherapy,the S/N of Cho and Cit in the cancerous and noncancerous regions were 17 ±3 and 3 ± 2 ( t =17.24,p =0.00 ),9 ± 2 and 3 ± 3 ( t =23.66,P =0.00 ) and a significant difference was found.The ratio of Cho + Cre/Cit in the recurrent area was no significant different compared with that of preoperation(t =1.214,P =0.256 ).In necrotic area,the ratios of Cho + Cre/Cit could not be calculated because of low level of the S/N of Cho and Cit.Conclusions MRS is a useful tool to evaluate the changes of the S/N of Cho and Cit,the ratios of the Cho + Cre/Cit and help diagnosis of local recurrence.

Objective To study the relationship between receptor interacting protein (RIP)1 and hepatocyte necropto?sis in isoniazid (INH) induced mouse model. Methods Kunming male mice were randomly divided into three groups. Con?trol group (C) received 0.3 mL of normal saline one time per day. INH group (INH) was injected intraperitoneally INH 100 mg/kg body weight, one time per day. Nec-1+INH group was injected intraperitoneally Nec-1 in 0.1%DMSO and 1 mg/kg body weight one time/12 hours, and INH was injected intraperitoneally at the same dose with that of INH group. All animals were treated for 7 days. Pathological changes of liver tissues were studied by HE staining. RIP1 expression was detected by immunohistochemical, Western blot and real-time PCR analysis. Levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in liver homogenate were determined by colorimetric method. Re?sults Hepatocytes were arranged orderly in C group. The degeneration and necrosis of hepatocytes were found in Nec-1+INH group, and severe degeneration and necrosis of hepatocytes were found in INH group. Compared with C group, the ex?pression levels of RIP1, ROS and MDA were increased significantly, and the expression levels of GSH and SOD were de?creased significantly in INH group (P<0.05). INH-induced acute liver necroptosis was significantly alleviated after treat?ment with Nec-1. Compared with INH group, the expression levels of RIP1, MDA and ROS were significantly decreased, and the expression levels of GSH and SOD were significantly increased in Nec-1+INH group (P<0.05). Conclusion These re?sults suggest that RIP1 is involved in INH-induced hepatocyte necroptosis in mice. The inhibition of RIP1 expression might be a treatment strategy for prohibition of INH-induced acute liver necroptosis.

BACKGROUND: Ilioinguinal approach and modified Stoppa approach are commonly used to treat pelvic and acetabular fractures, but which one is safer and more effective remains controversial, so a meta-analysis is necessary.OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of modified Stoppa approach and ilioinguinal approach for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures.METHODS: A computer-based retrieval of Cochrane library, PubMed, Embase, OVID, CNKI, WanFang, CBM and VIP databases was performed for the randomized controlled trials concerning modified Stoppa approach and ilioinguinal approach for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures published before October 2016. Meta-analysis was performed on RevMan5.3 software.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Finally 11 randomized controlled trials were enrolled, including 722 patients. (2) Meta-analysis showed that the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, length of incision, volume of drainage and hospitalization time in the modified Stoppa approach group were significantly less than those in the ilioinguinal approach group (P < 0.05), and the clinical efficacy in the modified Stoppa approach group was significantly superior to that in the ilioinguinal approach group (P < 0.05). But there were no significant differences in Matta scores and postoperative complications between two groups (P > 0.05). (3) To conclude, modified Stoppa approach is safer and more effective for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures.
