Objective To investigate the effects of 6-minutes of walking exercise (6-MWE) on the exercise tolerance and left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) of heart failure patients with a normal ejection fraction (HFNEFs).Methods Ninety grade Ⅱ or Ⅲ HFNEFs of the New York heart association (NYHA) were randomly divided into an exercise training group and a control group with 45 cases in each.The control group was treated with routine drugs.The exercise training group was treated with the same drugs plus 6-MWE.Before and after the sixmonth period of treatment,plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels were determined,each subject's left atrial volume index (LAVI) was measured with a color ultrasonic cardiogram (UCG),and their 6-minute walk distance (6-MWD) was measured.Results Plasma NT-proBNP levels and 6-MWD improved significantly comparing with before treatment in both groups.The average 6-MWD,LAVI and plasma NT-proBNP level all improved significantly more in the experimental group.Conclusion 6-MWE can significantly improve the exercise tolerance and LVDF of HFNEFs,and improve their quality of life.Walking can be helpful in delaying the development of HFNEF.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the in vivo possibility of osteogenesis and angiogenesis of tissue-engineered periosteum in rabbits.METHODS: The marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from New Zealand rabbits were adhered to small intestinal submucosa (SIS) to fabricate the tissue-engineered periosteum. Totally 12 New Zealand rabbits were received critical bone defect in bilateral radii to prepare models. The tissue-engineered periosteum was randomly implanted in one side of bone defect,and the other side was treated by SIS. At 4 weeks after operation, the angiogenesis of tissue engineered bone was detected by Tetracycline fluorescence microscopy and formaldehyde-ink perfusion method; simultaneously, the new bone formation was firmed by haematoxylin-eosin staining.RESULTS: Animals showed normal daily behaviors and non-infection wounds healing. The gross observation showed that bone defects in the experimental side were bridged with newly formed bone; while the defects of the control side were remained empty.Tetracycline fluorescence microscopy and hisotological examination could confirm the new bone tissue formation in the experimental side. The ink staining in new bone specimens suggested that there were abundant of neovasculization in tissue-engineered bone.CONCLUSION: Tissue-engineered periosteum can form new bone in allogenic rabbits and can be vascularized by some inherent mechanism for new bone tissue survivor.

Objective To explore the curative effects of unilateral Orthofix external fixation in the treatment of tibial defects.Methods From June 2012 to February 2016,we treated 19 patients with tibial defects using unilateral Orthofix external fixation.They were 14 men and 5 women,aged from 26 to 79 years (mean,43.0 years).The right tibia was involved in 12 cases and the left tibia in 7.The soft tissue defects averaged 6.4 cm × 3.7 cm.The mean bone defect before bone transport was 8.9 cm in length.The anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films of the affected tibia were taken regularly after surgery.Edwards tibial fracture scores were used to evaluate the functional recovery and complications of the affected limb at final follow-ups.Results All the patients were followed up for 10 to 40 months (average,18.5 months).Bone union time ranged from 4 to 16 months (average,9.0 months).Lengths of bone transport ranged from 6 to 10 cm (average,7.8 cm).All the bone defects were reconstructed.According to the Edwards scoring at the final follow-ups,10 cases were rated as excellent,6 as good and 3 as poor.Complications were observed in 4 cases,giving a complication rate of 21.1％.Conclusion Unilateral Orthofix external fixation and bone transport can lead to preferable curative effects in the management of tibial defects.
