Objective To evaluate the academic level and the popularity of Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics from the point view of citation. Methods According to the information of Chinese Medical Citation Index (CMCI), the amount and distribution of the original articles in Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics cited by the journals included by CMCI were statistically analyzed. The data analysis included the percentage of cited articles, the number of citation of a single article, authors of most cited articles, geological regions of cited articles, citing journals, the self citing rate and years of citation. Results The percentage of cited papers (663 articles, 3728 times) in all published 1 182 articles in Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics from 2005 to 2009 was an average of 56.09%. The average time of original articles cited by other researchers was 5.62. The highest one was citated by 104 times. 210 articles (31.68% of total papers) were cited 5 or more times, and the all cited times from them were 2835 (76.04% of total cited times). 663 cited articles were written by 485 authors from different countries. The most frequently cited author wrote 12 papers. The number of authors with one paper cited was 386 (79.58% of total authors). The cited authors are from the mainland, HongKong, and Taiwan in China, as well as USA, Canada, France. Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin are leading cities in orthopaedic research. Beijing was the first place (32.16% of total authors). There were 445 citing journals. There was 217 items self cited; the self- citing rate is 0.058. Conclusion Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics has provided high quality articles and has a strong influence in the field of medical research. It has been become an important resource for orthopaedic researchers and a vital medical journal in China.

Objective To investigate the effect of old myocardial infarction on the heart rate variability.Methods Totally 86 patients with old myocardial infarction and 78 healthy people were enrolled in the study.Twenty-four-hour heart rate variability in the time domains including NN,SDNN,SDANN,RMSSD,and PNN50 and the frequency domains including VLF,LF,HF,and LF/HF were analyzed.Results Both the time domain and frequency domain indexes of the heart rate variability in patients with old myocardial infarction significantly decreased than those in the healthy peolple（P 0.05）.Conclusion There might be autonomic nervous system dysfunction in the patients with old myocardial infarction.

It is important to explore the fundamental medical concepts which can enhance the overall quality of medical students in the department of geriatrics during clinical practice. These funda-mental medical concepts include medical humanistic spirit,holistic medicine,health management and patient-physician communication. Specific measures include improving emotional communication of clini-cal interns in department of geriatrics with elderly patients,training student's thinking as a whole towards multiple system disease in the elderly,training students to assess and manage elderly patients from a vari-ety of perspectives and improving doctor-patient communication skills by routine clinical teaching and teaching ward round. All these concepts will help improve the working ability and medical ethics of clini-cal interns and enable them to adapt to the clinical work quickly. So they can become qualified doctors.

Objective To observe clinical effect of hyperoxia solution in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods 218 cases of ACI were divided randamly into hyperoxia solution therapy group(group H,n=116)and conventional therapy group(group C,n=102).500 ml hyperoxia solution were intravenously dripped in group H once per day,and the other conventional therapy were the same in two groups.The course of treatment for the two groups were 20 days.Results After treatment,the general effective rate of group H(84.4%)was significantly higher than that of group C(72.54%)(P

Objective Investigate the efficacy of Plaix and Aspirine on treating the patients with progressive cerebral infarction.Methods 92 patients with progressive cerebral infarction were randomly divided into unite therapy group(n=46) and control groups(n=46).Two groups were taken the conventional therapy.In the patients of unite therapy group,oral Plaix 75 mg and Aspirine 150 mg per day,control group oral Aspirine 150 mg per day.Clinical neural deficiency score(NDS) was given before and 30 d after treatment for comparison and measur blood solidifying function and Heraorheological indexes.Results Total effective rate in the unite therapy group(93%)was significant higher than that in the control group(74%)(P

Objective To analyze the clinical presentation and the effects on both mothers and fetuses with HELLP syndrome induced hyregtensive disorder complicating pregrancy and to investigate the effective methods for diagnosis and treatment. Methods 15 cases of HELLP syndroms were retrospectively analyzed on material and perinatal outcomes. Results In 15case of women with HELLP syndrome, all of them presented antepartum HELLP. Mean gestational age at delivery was 34 weeks. Severe maternal complications included placental abruption,DIC ,postpartum hemorrhage,fetal distress, et al. All of them underwent cesaresn section and required transfusions with blood or blood products. 1 case of perinatal death was related to placental abruption. Conclusion HELLP syndrome is a severe obstetric complication. Better prognosis may be achiveved by early diagnosis, synthetic therapy and optimal termination of pregnancy.

Objective To investigate the effects of hemoglobin concentration on portal hypertension associated with hyperdynamic state.Methods According to blood hemoglobin level below or above 110g/L,55(nontreated) portal hypertension patients were divided into anemic and nonanemic groups,and the relevant(hemodynamic) and clinical data were examined and analyzed retrospectively.In order to avoid the effects of differences in hepatic function,data were analyzed separately according to the Child class.Results(Compared) to the nonanemic group,the anemic group had markedly increased cardiac output [(7.4?(1.7L))/min vs(6.3?1.9L)/min,P=0.028] and increased free portal pressure [(29.1?3.1)mmHg vs(26.8?3.3)mmHg,P=0.012],and a markedly decreased mean arterial pressure [(84?10.7)mmHg vs(97.1?12)mmHg,P

Objective To study the influence of combined anti-CD-40L and low dose CsA immunotherapy on the induction of immune tolerance in orthotopic liver transplantation rats.Methods Recipients were divided into the following groups.Group A,SD→SD;Group B,SD→Wistar without any treatment;Group C,SD→Wistar with CsA therapy from d1 to d5;Group D,SD→Wistar with CsA from d1 to d5 and anti-CD40L mAb in d0 and d2,and Group E,SD→Wistar with CsA from d1 to d5 and anti-CD40L mAb in d0 and d2 plus autotransfusion before operation.The recipient survival time,histologic changes of allograft and the level of cytokines in peripheral blood were observed.Results The survival period of recipients in Groups A,D and E was significantly longer than that in Groups B and C.The acute rejection response in Groups D and E decreased prominently.The serum level of IL-2 and IFN-? in Group B were significantly higher than those in other groups,while the serum level of IL-4 and IL-10 in Groups D and E was elevated much more than those in Group B(P

Objective To study the relationship between in situ telomerase activity and the expressin of bcl-2 and p53 proteins in human ovarian epithelial tumors(OETs), and explore their effect in pathogenesis of ovarian cystadenocarcinoma. Methods The telomerase activity of ovarian epithelial tumors was measured by in situ telomerase activity labeling (ISLT), and bcl-2 and p53 expression was detected by SP immunohistochemical method. Results ⑴The positive rates of telomerase in ovarian cystadenocarcinomas(OCAC), their surrounding ovarian tissues(SOT),borderline cystadenomas(BCA),and cystadenomas(CA)were 92 3%(24/26), 0(0/26), 42 8%(9/21) and 0(0/15) respectively, and the positive rate was significantly higher in OCAC than that in SOT, BCA and CA(P0 05); ⑵The positive rates of Bcl-2 in OCAC, SOT, BCA and CA were 65 38%(17/26), 0(0/26), 52 38%(11/21) and 26 66%(4/15) respectively, which were significantly higher in OCAC and BCA than those in SOT and CA(P0 05). Conclusion The results indicated that overexpression of bcl-2 protein may be related to telomerase activation, the telomerase activation induced by bcl-2 overexpression may result in malignant transformation of ovarian epithelials, and p53 mutation may not affect telomerase activity during ovarian cystadenocarcinogenesis.
