OBJECTIVE: To investigate the factors affecting shoulder joint functions following artificial humeral head replacement. METHODS: A total of 22 patients with complex fracture of proximal humerus, managed by humeral head replacement in Changhai Hospital of The Second Military Medical University from June 2006 to December 2008 were collected, including 12 males and 10 females, with average age of 67 years (52-86 years). During the procedure, soft tissue damage was minimized, the bone of the tuberosity was reserved as much as possible, appropriate matching size of humerus head prosthesis was selected, and early staging functional rehabilitation was performed. Neer's scoring system was used to evaluate the treatment results after replacement. RESULTS: The 22 patients were followed up for 10-30 months, mean 22.6 months. The shoulder joint functions of 14 cases were recovered more quickly through early post-operative staging rehabilitation, No shoulder joint unstable and stiff occurred. The shoulder joint functions of 8 cases were recovered slowly as they complained pain and did not perform early physical therapy after surgery, shoulder joint of 2 cases presented little unstable and 1 case presented stiff. Only 4 cases of all complained occasionally slight shoulder pain, but could continue daily work. The mean movement ranges of shoulder were as follow: mean flexion for 96°(80°-103°), mean extension for 38° (32°-45°), mean abduction for 86°(80°-110°), mean adduction for 31°(30°-35°), mean external rotation for 32°(30°-37°) and internal rotation for 42° (10°-75°). No vasculardamage, nerve damage, lessening prosthesis or prosthesis dislocation was found in all cases. Based on Neer's scoring system, 5 cases were rated as excellent, 11 as good and 4 as fair, with excellent rate of 82% and case satisfaction rate of 87%. CONCLUSION: In order to recover maximally the shoulder joint functions for post-artificial humeral head replacement, we must try our best to avoid soft tissue damage, reserve the bone of the tuberosity, select appropriate humerus head prosthesis, perform early post-operative staging rehabilitation, as well as maintain a normal retroversion of the prosthesis.

Objective:To study the mechnism of mild hypothermia during cerebral resuscitation. Method:Fourteen dogs were anaesthetized with ketamine and fentanyl and were divided randomly into three groups. Four dogs as nonischemic control(group A).recived general care for 24 hours after operation without cardiac arrest. The other ten dogs underwant a 18-minute cardiac arrest.were resuscitated with standard CPR.and supported by intensive care for 24 hours,then divided into two groups. Five dogs were treated with routine cerebral resuscitation measures (RCRM) (group B):five dogs were treated with RCRM and mild hypothermia started 10 min after CPR and mantained at 34 C?0.5 C for 12 hours (group C). At the end of experiment,the parietal cerebral cortex was obtained to detect the expression of heat shock proteins with immunohistochemical technique and to observe the change of histomorphology. Result: The pathologic change in group C was more obviously mitigated than that in group B. The HSP70-LI positive neuronal density and grey values in group B and C were more significantly increased than those in group A (P

Objective To study the radiological appearance and pathological features of breast phyllodes tumors(PTs), and to enhance the knowledge of the tumor.Methods Clinical and imaging findings were reviewed retrospectively in 65 women with PTs confirmed by surgical pathology.61 patients had preoperative MRI and/or sonography, and 44 had preoperative mammography.Then these findings were compared with the pathological results.Results (1)The percentages of benign, borderline and malignant PTs were 32.3%(21/65), 43.1%(28/65) and 24.6%(16/65), respectively,and the mean maximum diameters of these lesions were (4.75±2.62) cm, (5.37±3.11) cm and (4.96±3.82) cm, respectively.There were no statistical difference in lesion''s size among these three types(F=0.247,P=0.782).(2)On the mammograms of these 44 PTs(including 16 cases of benign type, 18 cases of borderline and 10 cases of malignant type), the appearances of radiolucent halo and calcification among these three types showed statistically significant differences(both P<0.05).(3)On the sonography of these 61 PTs(including 19 cases of benign type, 26 cases of borderline and 16 cases of malignant type), the shape among these three types showed statistically significant difference(P<0.05).(4)On the MRI of these 61 PTs(including 21 cases of benign type, 24 cases of borderline and 16 cases of malignant type), internal hypointense septations on T2WI and time intensity curves showed statistically significant differences among these three types(both P<0.05).Conclusion Some radiological appearances of PTs can be used to help determine the histologic subtypes of breast PTs preoperatively.

Objective To investigate the growth inhibition effect of evodiamine (Evo) on renal carcinoma 786-0 cells and to explore its molecular mechanism. Methods After treated with Evo, methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium ( MTT) assay was used to detect the vitality of 786-0 cells, flow cytometry was employed to examine the cell cycle distribution in 786-0 cells, and immunoblotting was utilized to determine the expression levels of target proteins related to cell cycle progression. Results Evo remarkably inhibited 786-0 cells vitality in dose-dependent manner. Cell cycle analysis indicated that 786-0 cells were arrested in G2/M phase followed by Evo treatment. Furthermore, the results of immunoblotting showed that Evo up-regulated the protein expression levels of P53, P21 and its downstream target gene CyclinB1 in 786-0 cells. Conclusion Evo treatment can induce 786-0 cell cycle G2/M arrest, and its underlying mechanism might be dependent on the P53/P21 signal pathway.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of new nano material occluder of single rivet type (left-disk with no-hub) in treating ventricular septal defect (VSD) in order to provide experimental basis for clinical application. Methods A total of 26 healthy adult dogs were selected for this study . Under thoracotomy , VSD model was established through fluoroscopically-guided percutaneous puncturing of the right ventricular free wall. The models were randomly and equally divided into the study group(n=13, using nano material VSD occluder) and the control group(n=13, using double-hub nitinol occluder). Every two dogs from each group were sacrificed each time at one, 2, and 3 months after percutaneous closure of VSD with corresponding occluder, the tissue samples were collected and sent for gross examination as well as for the optical and electronic microscopy study;the blood concentration of nickel ion was also determined. The state of endothelialization after implantation of the new type occluder was evaluated, and the complications such as residual shunt and superficial thrombus formation were recorded. The results were analyzed. Results By open chest operation with small incision and percutaneous puncturing of the right ventricular free wall, VSD model was successfully established in all 26 dogs. The success rate of the implantation of the VSD occluder in the study group was 100%, while it was 91.7% in the control group. One, 2, 3 and 6 months after the implantation, the heart specimens of 25 dogs were removed and gross examination showed that neither occluder displacement nor alloy wire fracture occurred in both groups. No thrombus formation or vegetation attached on the disk surface was observed. One month after the procedure , in the study group the bilateral disk surfaces of the occluder were covered with thin layer transparent tissue , which were proved to be composed of the fibrous tissue and endothelial cells through pathologic and electronic microscopy study. Six months after implantation, the superficial tissue of the occluder became further thickened and the occluder edge became fused with the surrounding heart tissue. Conclusion The design of the new VSD nano materials occluder, which has a left-disk with no hub, is very scientific. Compared with double-hub nitinol occluder, the new device can shorten the time of complete endothelialization and effectively occlude the VSD. Therefore, this new nano material occluder has promising prospect in clinical application.
