BACKGROUND:Femoral neck fracture combined with femoral shaft fracture as a high-energy injury exhibits some difficulties in its clinical treatment because of bone chips and bone defects. Bone and cel transplantations have been used recently in order to effectively fil the bone defect area. OBJECTIVE:To explore the therapeutic effect of bone transplantation versus cel transplantation for treatment of femoral neck fracture combined with femoral shaft fracture. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed in patients with femoral neck fracture combined with femoral shaft fracture, who respectively underwent internal fixation with bone transplantation, tissue transplantation and cel transplantation. Perioperative indexes, incidence of complications and Harris scores were observed and compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Femoral neck fractures are most commonly classified into Garden type, AO type and Pauwel type. Fracture classification aims to unify standards, which is easy to guide treatment and scientific research. (2) Internal fixation with bone transplantation and tissue transplantation is easy, safe and effective to promote fracture healing and improve hip function, which is an effective way to repair femoral neck fractures with femoral shaft fractures. (3) Compared with autogenous bone graft, alograft transplantation materials as finished products have a variety of sources, and have indications and efficacy similar to non-vascularized bone graft, which are suitable for clinical practice, but long-term effects need to be furtherexplored. (4) Internal fixation with cel transplantation is simple, reliable and effective for femoral neck fractures with femoral shaft fractures, which provides a new idea to reduce the early incidence of femoral head necrosis.

Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens for hospital-acquired urinary tract infections between patients in internal medicine wards and in surgical wards .Methods A total of 586 midstream urine samples were collected from patients in the First Municipal Hospital of Qinhuangdao during January 2012 and December 2014.Vitek 2 Compact system was applied in bacteria identification and drug sensitivity tests .Excel and SPSS 11.5 software were applied for data analysis . Results A total of 661 strains were isolated , in which 404 strains were from internal medicine wards and 257 strains were from surgical wards .Escherichia coli (44.6%vs.33.1%) and Enterococcus (23.0%vs. 16.3%) infections were more common in the internal medicine wards (χ2 =8.620 and 4.309, P<0.05), while the occurrence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection (4.0%vs.24.5%) was higher in surgical wards (χ2 =63.056, P <0.01).Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia strains were highly sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam, cefptetan, amikacin, imipenem, and meropenem, and the sensitivity rates were from 85% to 100.0%.The sensitivity rates of Escherichia coli to ampicillin/sulbactam, levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin were <30%, and strains from surgical wards had lower sensitivity rates to these drug than those isolated from internal medicine wards (χ2 =4.987, 4.575 and 5.359, P<0.05).The sensitivity rates of Klebsiella pneumonia isolated from internal medicine wards to ceftazidime , gentamicin and aztreonam were 68.8%, 60.6% and 69.7%, which were higher than those isolated from surgical wards (36.0%, 32.0%, and 40.0%), and the differences were of statistical significance (χ2 =6.068,4.661 and 5.115, P<0.05).Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were highly sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam and amikacin, and the susceptibilities of strains isolated from surgical wards (98.4%and 96.8%) were higher than those isolated from internal medicine wards (75.0% and 81.3%) (χ2 =11.797 and 5.221, P <0.05). Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from surgical wards were also highly sensitive to cefepime (92.1%), but the sensitive rate of strains from internal medicine wards was only 37.5%, and the difference was of statistical significance (χ2 =24.696, P<0.01).Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis were sensitive to tigecycline , vancomycin and linezolid with the sensitivity rates over 95%.Except quinupristin/dalfopristin and tetracycline , the sensitivities of Enterococcus faecalis to other antibiotics were higher than Enterococcus faecium.Susceptibility of Enterococcus faecium from surgical wards (33.3%) to moxifloxacin was lower than those from internal medicine wards (70.8%), and the difference was of statistical significance (χ2 =4.629, P <0.05).Conclusion There are differences in distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogens isolated from internal medicine wards and from surgical wards .

Objective To explore the inhibiting effects of arsenic trioxide and cisplatin on MG-63 cells. Methods Using MTT assay,flowcytometry,phase contrast microscopy and electron microscopy methods,the therapeutic effect of arsenic trioxide was studied for the osteosarcoma in the cultured MG-63 cells in vitro,and compared these effects with cisplatin. The inhibitory rotes of cell growth and the effect of apoptosis and cell cycle were compared between arsenic trioxide and cisplatin on MG-63 cells. Results The contrast phase microscope revealed the adhesion ability of normal groups was good and cellular morphology showed epithelium cells. But the celhdar morphology showed irregular arrangement in arsenic trioxide groups and cytoplasmic vacuoles in cisplatin group. Electron microscope revealed the globular plasmalemma ecphymas in cell surface of control groups,the enlarged crista mitochondriales and the double-deck membrane structure appeared clearly. But electron microscope revealed globular plasmalemma processes in cell surface of arsenic trioxide groups,thinned crista mitochondriales and clearly seen karyopycnosis and nuclear membrane of apoptotic cells. The globular plasmalemma processes in cell surface of cisplatin groups were separated,nuclear membrane thickened and chromatin were in sandy shape. Both arsenic trioxide and cisplatin inhibited effectively MG-63 cells growth. There was a significant difference in different groups of inhibition ratios to the growth of cells(all P < 0.05). In 2,4,8,16,32,64,128 hours,the inhibition ratios(%) of arsenic trioxide(56.31±0.03,70.00±0.06,79.84±0.03,87.31±0.13,84.70±0.09,90.68±0.06,91.18±0.05) and cisplatin groups(7.55±0.15,15.70±0.17,30.72±0.07,49.80±0.05,45.11± 0.13,61.62±0.08,93.80±0.12) were obviously increased as compared with those in the control group(2.03± 0.07,2.78±0.08,3.11±0.01,5.67±0.04,12.23±0.04,18.65±0.04,24.45±0.04,all P < 0.05). Moreover the inhibition ratio of arsenic trioxide group in 2 to 32 hour was significantly higher than that of cisplatin group and the effect was more faster(all P < 0.05). Both arsenic trioxide and cisplatin could induce apoptosis MG-63 cells. There was a significant difference in different groups of the inhibition ratio to the growth of cells(F = 13.317,P < 0.05). The inhibition ratios(%) of arsenic trioxide on 24,36,48 hour(20.50±3.78,45.76±9.90,25.16±15.41),and cisplatin groups on 24,36,48 hour(12.55±1.51,18.85±3.40,12.37±5.43),were obviously increased as compared with those in the control group at the same time(6.57±1.48,8.03±2.08,6.54±1.30,P< 0.05 or<0.01). Both arsenic trioxide and cisplatin inhibited MG-63 cells cycle. There was a significant difference in different groups of the inhibition ratio to the growth of cells(F = 54.579,43.429,21.795,P < 0.05 or < 0.01). And the total inhibition ratios(%) in G1 cycle of arsenic trioxide(78.26±5.24) and cisplatin groups(80.48±2.81) were obviously increased as compared with those in the control group(57.49±6.65,all P < 0.05 or < 0.01). Conclusions Arsenic trioxide and cisplatin can effectively inhibit the proliferation of MG-63 cell line and induce the apoptosis of MG-63 cell line. And the effects induced by arsenic trioxide group were faster than that of cisplatin groups. Moreover arsenic trioxide can arrest the cell cycle of MG-63 cell line at G1 phase.
