Objective To compare hip arthroplasty versus internal fixation for treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly patients in terms of reoperation,surgery-related complications and postoperative 1-2-year mortality.Methods All the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) up to May 2013 on hip arthroplasty versus internal fixation for displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly were electronically searched for in Pubmed/Medline,EMBASE,Cochrane CENTRAL,CNKI,WanFang and VIP databases.The 2 treatments were compared in terms of reoperation,surgery-related complications and postoperative 1-2-year mortality.The Meta analysis was performed with RevMan 5.2.5 software.Results Five eligible RCTs involving 1 288 cases were included for this review.The rate of reoperation (including implant removal and other operations),either within 2 years or over 2 years,in the internal fixation group was significantly higher than that in the arthroplasty group (P ＜ 0.05).The surgery-related complications in the internal fixation group was significantly higher than that in the hip arthroplasty group [OR =8.82,95％ CI (6.45,12.07),P ＜0.001].No significant difference was found in the postoperative 1-2-year mortality between the 2 groups (P ＞0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly,compared with internal fixation,arthroplasty should be recommended as the first choice,because it can significantly reduce surgery-related complications and reoperations though it cannot decrease the postoperative 1-2-year mortality.

Objective To study the anesthetic effect and influence to circulatory and respiratory function of target controlled infusion(TCI)and intravenous injection of propofol anesthesia in elderly patients undergoing colonoscopy.Method 50 patients above 55 years of age undergoing colonoscopy were randomly allocated to 2 groups.The TCI group received target controlled infusion of propofol with a target concentration of 3?g/ml.The injection group received intravenous injection of 2mg/kg propofol with addition of 20-50mg propofol for each time at intervals during anesthesia when necessary.BP,HR,SpO2,and limb motion were detected during colonoscopy operation,and the time of eye-open and word-response after colonoscopy were also recorded.Results No significant difference was found in colonoscopy time and limb motion response between the two groups.Patients in TCI group consumed more propofol and opening of eyes was delayed compared to those patients in the injection group(P

[Objective]To investagate the anatomic features in the approach to the brachial plexus in neck in order to make the exposure of brachial plexus more convenience and safer.[Method]Neck of six embalmed adult cadavers were made serial sectional specimens,which was observed to identify the border,composition and anatomic relation of fat layer between the superficial and deep layer of cervical fascia in the posterior triangle of neck with the brachial plexus.[Result]There was no branches of superficial cervical plexus in the fat layer between the superficial layer and deep layer of cervical fascia below the middle neck,in which there was no important structures except omohyoid muscle and transverse cervical artery.The deep layer of cervical fascia was dense and was directly superficial to the brachial plexus.[Conclusion]Exposure of brachial plexus in the neck would be more safe and convenience upon the understanding of anatomic relatiowship between cervical fascia and brachial plexus.

Objective To summarize the experience with adapalene in the treatment of ache vulgaris and to provide a clue to improve the clinical use of adapalene in ache vulgaris. Methods Chinese literature over the past ten years related to the evaluation of efficacy and safety of 0.1% adapalene gel in acne vulgaris were searched and assessed. Results Combination therapy with 0.1% adapalene was more effective than monotherapy with it. The efficacy of adapalene gel was higher than that of non-tretinoin topical agents, but equivalent to that of other tretinoins. Furthermore, the incidence of adverse events was lower for adapalene than for other tretinoin formulations. Conclusions Adapalene is safe and effective for the treatment of mild to moderate acne vulgaris, and can be used as monotherapy, maintenance treatment, or in combination therapy of acne vulgaris.

Objective:To investigate the differences in related indices of ulcerative colitis (UC) respectively induced by free drinking and intragastric administration of dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) in mice to provide experimental reference for the optimization of UC model.Methods:Totally 30 C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the normal control group,free drinking group and intragastric administration group with 10 ones in each.The mice drank water freely with free drinking or intragastric administration of 3% DSS solution at the dose of 4 g·kg-1·day-1 for 7 days to establish the UC model.The differences in disease activity index (DAI),histological damage sore and activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO) among the groups were compared.Results:Two mice died during the experiment in the free drinking group,and DAI of survival mice was (8.8±1.6).There was no death of mice in intragastric administration group,and DAI was (9.0±0.8),and there was no significant difference in DAI between the groups (P>0.05),while the coefficient of variation in the free drinking group was higher than that in the intragastric administration group (18.7 vs 8.6).The colonic histological damage score of the free drinking group and the intragastric administration group was 24.8±4.2 and 27.0±2.8,respectively,which was typical inflammatory change with no significant difference (P>0.05),while the coefficient of variation of the free drinking group was higher than that of the intragastric administration group (16.9 vs 10.4).MPO of the normal control group,free drinking group and intragastric administration group was (0.41±0.03),(2.32±0.34) and (2.05±0.18) U·g-1,respectively.Compared with the normal control group,significant difference in MPO was shown in the free drinking group and the intragastric administration group (P<0.01),while there was no significant difference in MPO between the groups (P>0.05),and the coefficient of variation in the free drinking group was higher than that in the intragastric administration group (14.7 vs 8.8).Conclusion:Both free drinking and intragastric administration of DSS can successfully induce the UC model in mice.Compared with the free drinking group,the intragastric administration group has low mortality rate and low coefficient of variation.Therefore,intragastric administration has more advantages than free drinking in inducing the UC model in mice.

Exosomes secreted by mesenchymal stem cells have shown great therapeutic potential in regenerative medicine .In this study, we performed meta-analysis to assess the clinical effectiveness of using exosomes in ischemia /reperfusion injury based on the reports pub-lished between January 2000 and September 2015 and indexed in the PubMed and Web of Science databases .The effect of exosomes on heart function was evaluated according to the following parameters:the area at risk as a percentage of the left ventricle , infarct size as a percentage of the area at risk , infarct size as a percentage of the left ventricle , left ventricular ejection fraction , left ventricular frac-tion shortening , end-diastolic volume , and end-systolic volume .Our analysis indicated that the currently available evidence confirmed the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell-secreted exosomes in the improvement of heart function .However , further mechanis-tic studies, therapeutic safety and clinical trials are required for optimization and validation of this approach to cardiac regeneration after ischemia/reperfusion injury .

With the development of therapeutic antibodies over the past decade, they have become the treatment options for immunity and inflammation diseases. Major limitations of mouse antibodies as therapeutic agents - immunogenicity, lack of effectors' functions and short serum half-life -- were subsequently identified and largely overcome by the advent of humanized and fully human antibody technologies. The therapeutic antibodies for immunity and inflammatory diseases are primarily utilized in the treatment of allograft rejection, autoimmune disease, autoinflammatory syndromes, allergies and other chronic inflammation. The action mechanisms of therapeutic antibody include blocking ligands or receptors, regulating receptor activity, clearing the target cells or activating receptor. Strategies for generating the antibody drugs with high efficacy and low side effects can be realized by modulation of Fc-mediated activities and optimization of antigen-binding domains.
