Objective To explore the possibility of three-dimensional orbit replications for clinic and teaching of orbital blowout fracture surgical operation.Methods The orbital CT DICOM format data from 10 patients with orbital floor fractures were selected between November 2016 and January 2017 from Wendeng Osteopath Hospital.Thresholding technique,region growing technique,edit mask technique and multiple slice edit technique were used in sequence by Mimics software.And 3D replications were printed by Object 500 3D printer.The sizes of the replications were measured.The model of orbital blowout fracture and surgical implant model were simulated by senior orbital surgeon.Results In the 10 cases,male was 5 cases,and female was 5 eyes.The 3 D replications of the orbits were successfully designed and printed.The sizes of the 3D replications were basically consistent with those of patients' orbits,and there was no statistical difference (all P ＞ O.05).Under operation room surgery simulation environment,the orbital fracture surgical repair operation was demonstrated to the resident by the senior surgeon,3D printing orbital blowout fracture model can be successfully used to simulate the operation and teaching demonstration.Conclusion 3D printing orbital blowout fracture model can restore the true orbital injury and orbital anatomic details,provides the design operation of stereoscopic model for the physician,which has positive significance to understand the scope and surgery teaching simulation of orbital blowout fracture.

Objective To study the incidence frequency of prothrombin G20210A (FⅡ G20210A)mutation in the patients with pulmonary thromboembolism(PTE)in northeast China,and to clarify the predictive value of FⅡG20210A mutation detection in PTE of the population in northeast China.Methods 60 PTE patients(PTE group) and 80 sex-matched healthy controls(control group)from the same geographic area were selected.All the patients were diagnosed by lung ventilation/perfusion scan and/or multi-slice CT pulmonary angiography(CTPA)as well as medical history.The genome DNA was extracted from the whole blood using alcohol.Polymerase chain reaction (PCR),restriction fragment length polymorphisms(RFLP)analysis with HindⅢ restriction enzyme and sepharose gel electrophoresis were used to identify the F Ⅱ G20210A mutation in PTE group and control group. Results After digested by HindⅢ restriction enzyme,only the fragments of 407 and 99 bp were found in PTE group.The frequency of FⅡ G20210A mutation was 0%,there was no statistical difference compared with contol group(P>0.05).There were no heterozygote and homozygote mutation of FⅡ G202210A gene in PTE group and control group.Conclusion The incidence of FⅡ G20210A mutation in the PTE patients in northeast China is very low,and the detection of FⅡ G20210A mutation may have no predictive value in PTE of the population in northeast China.

Objective To investigate the different distribution and expression of mammalian target of rapamycin complex (mTORC) in the kidney of diabetic nephropathy (DN) mice.Methods Fourteen eight-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to 2 groups: the control group ( n=7 ) and the streptozotocin ( STZ )-induced DN group ( n=7 ) . Blood and urinary variables including glucose , albumin, creatinine and albumin/creatinine ratio were assessed 2 weeks after STZ injection.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed for renal pathological analyses .The distributions of mTOR , phosph-ser2448-mTOR(p-mTOR), mTORC1(Raptor), mTORC2(Rictor) and phosph-ser240/244-S6K1 (p-S6K1) were determined by immunofluorescence.The expression levels of mTOR, p-mTOR, mTORC1(Raptor), mTORC2(Rictor), S6K1 and p-S6K1 were detected by Western blotting .Results Two weeks after STZ injection , the diabetic mice developed albuminuria (P<0.01) and renal hypertrophy (P<0.05).The immunofluorescence positive staining for mTOR , Raptor, and Rictor was distributed in the epithelial cells of proximal tubules , glomerular mesangium and capillary loops as well as the medullary collecting ducts of the control mouse kidney .These positive signals increased in the DN mouse kidney ( P<0.05).However, pS6K1 was not detected in the inner medulla of control mouse and p-mTOR was not found in the glomeruli of both control and DN mice .Conclusion mTORC is widely expessed in the mouse kidney and participates in the development of DN , whereas the 2448 serine phosphorylation of mTOR may be not implicated in the hyperglycemia mediated glomerular injury .

Objective To study the interrelation between highly pathogenic avian influenza viral pneumonia(HPAIVP) and cellular factors interleukin-1?(IL-1?),interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-8(IL-8)and tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) in HPAIVP.Me-thods Sixty Kunming mice were divided into 2 groups randomly:experiment group and control group,each group consisted of 30 mice.The highly pathogenic avian influenza virus was used to establish HPAIDP models.The expressions of serum IL-1?,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-? in experiment group of different moment and control group were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Result The levels of serum IL-1?,IL-6 and TNF-? in experiment group were significantly higher than those in control group(Pa

Objective To investigate the efficacy of oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) on evaluation the cardiopulmonary function of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods The cardiopulmonary function of 54 stable COPD patients with the cardiopulmonary function of Ⅱ~Ⅳ were evaluated, following a symptom-limited Steep protocol with simultaneous respiratory gas measurement,they were performed exercise tests on a treadmill, simultaneously the oxygen uptake (VO2), carbon dioxide production (VCO2),peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), minute ventilation (VE), and respiratory gas exchange rate (RER) were measured. OUES was derived from the relation between VO2 and VE during incremental exercise and was determined by VO2=algVE+b, where a=OUES, to measure anaerobic threshold (VAT) meanwhile. Results OUES correlated with the VO2peak (P<0.001). 75% OUES, 90% OUES and 100% OUES were not significantly different (F=0.239, P=0.830). Conclusion OUES can respond the cardiopulmonary function in patients with COPD, 75% OUES from sub-maximal exercise can be an index for cardiopulmonary function.

Objective To analyze the discrepancy and similarities of clinical characteristics in elderly patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and ischemic colitis (IC).Methods A total of 43 elderly patients (age≥60 yrs) with UC and 36 elderly patients with IC were enrolled from 2004 to 2015 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital.The clinical characteristics were retrospectively analyzed and compared between the two groups.Results Compared with IC group,the disease course was longer with lower incidence of cardiovascular comorbidities in UC patients (P ＜ 0.05).In UC group,more patients presented with diarrhea,mucopurulent bloody stool [39 (90.7％) vs 16 (44.4％) and 34 (79.1％) vs 2 (5.6％)respectively,both P ＜ 0.01].Yet bloody stool as the only symptom was seen in more IC patients than UC patients [61.1％ (22/36) vs 7.0％ (3/43),P ＜ 0.01].The ratio of extra-intestinal manifestations was higher [18.6％ (8/43) vs 0 (0/36)] in UC patients,while complications were lower [11.6％ (5/43) vs 30.6％ (11/36),P ＜ 0.05].As to the laboratory parameters,median platelet count [(294.38 ± 104.83) × 109/L vs (235.47±94.82) × 109/L,P ＜0.05] was higher in UC group.In addition,more patients with UC had positive perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (p-ANCA) [50.0％ (15/30) vs 10.0％ (2/20),P ＜ 0.05].The most commonly involved regions of IC were descending colon and sigmoid colon,in which the lesions were clearly demarcated with the normal mucosa.Lesions in patients with UC mainly originated from rectum and might spread to the whole colon.Vascular occlusion and micro thrombosis were characteristic pathological findings of IC.The crypt abscesses were frequently seen in the UC group.Conclusion Even though UC and IC have some similar manifestations in the elderly patients,clinical and pathological discrepancy is still helpful to differentiate each other.
