[Objective]To investigate the best internal fixation methods of upper segment complicated femoral fractures(USCFF).[Method]Fifty-two cases(54 limbs) with USCFF were treated.In all patients open fracture reduction with use of internal fixation were done.Intramedullary interlocking nails(IIN) were used to treat 32 cases(34 limbs) of adult's USCFF and 130? plate were used to treat 20 cases of children's USCFF.Thirty-six limbs of them were closed fractures,and 18 limbs were opene.Measures of auto-ilium transplant(5 limbs),homolegous allograft bone transplant(10 limbs)were also taken.[Result]Fifty-two patients were followed-up from 9 to 40 months with an average of 16 months.Infection,fracture nonunions,malunion and femoral head necrosis complications were not found.The average period of union of adult and children fractures was respectively 6.8 months and 6.5 months.The long term effect was evaluated according to Ma Yuanzhang's evaluation standard,94.4 percent showed excellent function of joints and limbs.[Conclusion]Appropriate selection of internal fixation according to the age of patients and satisfactory fracture reduction are key points to improve outcome of USCFF.IIN in treating fiacture of adult and 130? plate in treating fracture of children are more ideal selections.

Objective To investigate the rate of vaginal colonization of Candida species in patients with diabetes,and to discuss the relationship between prevalence of vulvovaginal candidiasis(VVC) and diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods Genital tract examination and fungal cultures of discharge taken among 144 patients with DM(DM group) and 150 healthy subjects(control group) were performed.Chrom Agar Candida mediums were used to study the isolates of 64 strains cultured in 144 participants.Results The isolated rates of Candida species were 44.4%(64/144) in subjects with DM and 18%(27/150)in healthy subjects,the isolated rate of Candida species in DM group was prominently higher than that in control group(P

Objective To explore the effects of different doses of contrast agent (CA) on types of time-signal intensity curves (TICs) and semi-quantitative parameters after dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) on Walker 256 murine breast tumor model.Methods A total of 12 rats burdened Walker256 breast cancer models were established and divided into 3 groups randomly, 4 in each group.Routine MR and DCE-MRI scans of the rats using Bruker Pharmascan 7T MR scanner were performed.Doses for the 3 groups were 0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 mmol/kg, respectively.MR data, TICs types and semi-quantitative parameters from each different dose group were statistically studied and compared to observe the differences.Results Tumors were enhanced significantly after injection.The types of TICs in all tumors were the Ⅲ pattern which was not influenced by CA doses.Semi-quantitative parameters of first enhancement (Efirst), maximal enhancement (Emax), washout enhancement (Ewash), and signal enhancement ratio (SER) showed statistical differences among the three dose groups (P＜0.05).Semi-quantitative parameters of time to peak (Tpeak) and washout velocity (Vwash) showed no statistical differences among the three dose groups (P＞0.05).Mean signal intensity of each group was highly negatively linear correlated with scan times after the peak (r=-0.972, P=0.000;r=-0.971, P=0.000;r=-0.989, P=0.000).The washout slope (slopewash) showed no statistical differences among the three groups (P＞0.05).Conclusions Injection doses of CA didn't change the TIC type, Tpeak, Vwash, and Slopewash.These parameters are comparable among different medical centers and can be considered as prior parameters to monitor the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective To elucidate whether down-regulation of homo sapiens eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 2 (EEF1A2) expression induces apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells and its possible mechanisms. Methods Two siRNAs targeting human EEF1A2 were synthesized and the siRNA/liposome complexes were transfected into the pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3. RTPCR and Western blot were used to analyze the change of EEF1A2 expression and the apoptosis rate of BxPC-3 cells was studied using Annexin-V/PI assay. To identify the mechanisms involved, the apoptosis associated proteins such as caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9, PARP, cytochrome C and Bid were detected by Western blotting. Results Both EEF1A2-targeting siRNAs reduced the EEF1A2expression, and the No. 2 siRNA inhibited EEF1A2 expression to less than 25 % in mRNA and protein levels. Down-regulation of EEF1A2 expression in BxPC-3 cells enhanced cell apoptosis (15.28% ±3.65%) at a greater level than negative siRNA-expressing cells (10. 11% ± 3. 05%) or mock cells (9.41 % ±4.14 %). Furthermore, reduction of EEF1A2 activated the pro-caspase-8, pro-caspase-3,pro-caspase-9,PARP and Bid to their active forms, and increased the expression of cytochrome C.Conclusions These data suggest that EEF1A2 down-regulation could significantly induce apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3, which is likely mediated by the death receptor and mitochondrial apoptotic pathways.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety between direct anterior approach (DAA) and posterior approach (PA) in total hip arthroplasty.Methods: This study evaluated postoperative results of 92 consecutive total hip arthroplasties performed by a single surgeon;44 from the DAA,and 48 from PA.The age,body mass index,operation time,blood loss,hospital stay,positioning of the artificial hip,postoperative Harris score and postoperative complications were recorded and analyzed.Results: Both the average age of the patients separately (58.0±11.9) years in DAA group and (61.0±10.4) years in PA group and the body mass index (25.1±3.7) in DAA group and (24.7±3.3) in PA group,showed no significant difference between the two groups.The DAA group had significantly reduced the hospital stay (3.8±1.7) days vs.(4.9±2.3) days for the PA group (P<0.05) and operation time was (76.0±17.4) min in DAA group,and (71.0±14.3) min in PA group (P>0.05).The amount of blood loss: in group DAA (238.0±55.3) mL,and in group PA (387.0±61.2) mL (P<0.05).There was no statistical difference in the positioning of the artificial hip: the cup anteversion in DAA group and PA group was 17.3°±5.3° vs.18.6°±5.1°,the cup inclination was 38.5°±5.7° vs.37.7°±5.2°.In DAA group,there was significantly less use of assistive devices [(24.6±7.8) d vs.(31.7±10.2) d,P<0.05],and the pain was significantly lower.Harris score at the end of 6 weeks of the follow-up: in DAA group 85.7±5.4,and in PA group 81.3±6.1 (P<0.05);at the end of the last follow-up: in DAA group 93.4±4.7,and in PA group 92.3±5.3 (P>0.05).Complications were encountered in the two groups.There were two intraoperative complications (4.4％),1 great trochanter fracture and 1 lateral cutaneous nerve injury in DAA group.No dislocation was observed in DAA group.One dislocations and 1 groin pain were recorded in PA group.No prosthesis loosening,deep vein thrombosis,sciatic nerve injury and other complications occurred in the two groups.Conclusion: Total hip arthroplasty using the anterior approach allows for superior recovery and better stability.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of nedaplatin combined with docetaxel in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. METHODS:A total of 53 patients with advanced cervical cancer selected from our hospital during Apr. 2014-Apr. 2016 were divided into observation group(31 cases)and control group(22 cases)according to chemotherapy plan. Con-trol group was given Docetaxel injection 60 mg/m2,ivgtt,qw. Observation group was additionally given Nedaplatin for injection 35 mg/m2+0.9% Sodium chloride injection diluted into 500 mL,ivgtt (≥60 min),qw. A chemotherapy cycle lased for 21 d,and both groups received 2 cycles of chemotherapy. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were evaluated 2 weeks after treatment,and the level of PCNA integal was detected before and 2 weeks after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:The total re-sponse rate of observation group (77.42%) was significantly higher than that of control group (63.64%),with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in PCNA integval between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treat-ment,PCNA integval of 2 groups were decreased significantly,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). ADR were concentrated in grade I,and there was no statistical significance in the in-cidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Docetaxel combined with nedaplatin can significantly improve the clinical efficacy of patients with advanced cervical cancer,and does not increase the adverse reactions compared to docetaxel alone.

A novel electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) sensor for the determination of metoclopramide was developed by employing ruthenium complex as an ECL signal producer and an ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) material as modified material. The ECL sensor was fabricated by adsorption ruthenium complex into a mixture of OMC and Nafion, which showed good electrochemical and ECL behaviors. It was found that the ECL intensity of the sensor fabricated was greatly enhanced in the presence of metoclopramide. Based on this finding, a highly sensitive and reproducible ECL method was developed for the determination of metoclopramide. The result showed that the ECL intensity was linear with the concentration of metoclopramide in the range from 1.0×10-10 to 5.0×10-7M and the detection limit was 3×10-11M. The ECL sensor exhibited a long-term stability and a fine reproducibility with relative standard deviation of 1.0 % for 1.0×10-10M metoclopramide in 18 continuous determinations. The developed method has been applied to the determination of metoclopramide in tablet samples with satisfactory results.

Objective To study the biological effects of down-regulatingof methionine synthase reductase (MTRR) gene on cisplatin resistant ovarian cancer SKOV3/DDP cell in vitro and in vivo. Methods (1) Establishing the cell line of MTRR down-regulated. Four short hairpin RNA (shRNA) for MTRR gene (U6-GFP-Neo-homo-1106, U6-GFP-Neo-homo-1931, U6-GFP-Neo-homo-419, U6-GFP-Neo-homo-1460) were designed respectively. Western blot was used to detect the interference efficiency and selected the most efficient shRNA. The MTRR 1106 was selected as the best silencing effect of interference fragment and then therecombinant plasmid vector pSicoR-1106 was constructed and transfected into SKOV3/DDP cells.The stably transfected cells was obtained by screening of flow cytometry(FCM).Fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription (RT)-PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression of MTRR mRNA and protein. (2) Study in vitro: recombinant plasmid expression vector pSicoR-1106, pSicoR-NC and packaging plasmid were respectively transfected into 293T cell. SKOV3/DDP cells were transfected by viral supernatant. The experiment was divided into three groups, namely SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi (down-regulated MTRR group), SKOV3/DDP-NC (negative control group), and the SKOV3/DDP (blank control group). The cell growth curves and half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of cisplatin were made by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method. Three groups cells were treated with different concentration of cisplatin (0, 1, 2 and 4 μg/ml). The clonogenicity efficiency was observed by clony formation test. The cell cycles were measured by FCM . (3) Study in vivo: three groups cells were subcutaneously inoculated into the nude mice to develop a tumor model. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with cisplatin at 2.5 mg/kg (once every 2 days, in 21 rounds), then the tumor growth was observed. The expression of MTRR and proliferation-related Ki-67 antigen by immunohistochemistry in xenograft tumors were measured. Results (1) Results showed that U6-GFP-Neo-homo-1106 was the best shRNA with interference effect to MTRR. The recombinant plasmid pSicoR-1106 was constructed and transfected into SKOV3/DDP. The MTRR mRNA and protein were down-regulated after transfected. This result showed that MTRR down-regulated SKOV3/DDP cell line was constructed successfully. (2) The cell growth curves showed that the growth of SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi cells were significantly decreased compared with that in the SKOV3/DDP-NC cells and SKOV3/DDP cells (P<0.05). The IC50 of SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi, SKOV3/DDP-NC and SKOV3/DDP were 4.01, 7.90, and 8.91 μg/ml, respectively. The IC50 of SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi was significantly lower than that in control cell groups (P<0.05).Clony formation tests showed that the clony numbers of varied concentration of cisplatin of SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi were significantly less than those of SKOV3/DDP-NC cells and SKOV3/DDP cells (P<0.05). FCM showed that when the cisplatin concentration rose to 4 μg/ml, the G0/G1 phase cell ratio in SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi cells group was (72.8±5.0)%, which was significantly higher than those in the SKOV3/DDP-NC cells group and SKOV3/DDP cells group [(64.4±2.5)%and (64.3±3.0)%], respectively (all P<0.05).(3) Six weeks after nude mice intraperitoneal injection with cisplatin, the tumor volume of SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi, SKOV3/DDP-NC and SKOV3/DDP were respectively (97 ± 32), (168 ± 45), and (173 ± 32) mm3, the tumor weight were (0.36±0.17), (1.08±0.17), and (1.11±0.20) g, in which tumor volume and weight of SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi were significantly less than those of SKOV3/DDP-NC cells and SKOV3/DDP cells (all P<0.05). In three groups tumor tissue, positive rates of MTRR were respectively 2/8, 5/8, and 7/8, the positive rates of Ki-67 were respectively1/8, 6/8, and 7/8, in which SKOV3/DDP-MTRRi was significantly lower those SKOV3/DDP-NC cells and SKOV3/DDP cells (all P<0.05). Conclusion The growth and cisplatin resistance of ovarian cancer cells could be decreased by down-expressing of MTRR gene in vitro and in vivo.
