0.05).[Conclusion]The stability of the single - level anterior cervical intervertebral decompression and fusion with plating Uniplate is satisfactory.Uniplate is valuable in clinic,furthermore,it is relatively simple to operate.

Objective To set up rodent ankylosing spondylitis model. Methods Recombinant natively folded versican G1 domain(VG1) and FCA were injected into BALB/c mice to induce spondylitis and sacroiliitis. Spondylitis and sacroiliitis were determined by pathological examination. Results It was shown that immunity to recombinant VG1 resulted in spondylitis in the lumbar spine and sacroiliitis in 35 0% and 12 5% mice respectively. Accumulation of mononuclear cells was observed in spinal ligaments adjacent to the intervertebral disc, the intervertebral disc and the sacroiliac joints. No clinical peripheral arthritis was observed. Conclusion These observations suggest that immunity to human VG1 is involved in the induction of experimental spondylitis and sacroiliitis in BALB/c mice, which will do some help to probe the pathogenesis of human ankylosing spondylitis

Objective To study the role of transforming growth factor-?1(TGF-?1) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) in the ankylosing spondylitis, and to evaluate whether synovial levels of TGF-?1/ BMP2 mRNA and TGF-?1/BMP2 protein expression correlate with disease activity and macroscopic observation during arthroscopy. Metheds TGF-?1/BMP2 mRNA and protein were detected by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry.The vascular morphology of synovial membrane was assessed for vascular morphology, tortuous vessels, straight vessels, vascular density, synovial hypertrophy, by 2 blinded observers and Reece's method using a validated VAS methods. They were significantly higher in AS than that in RA in different synovial regions. Results TGF-?1 mRNA and TGF-?1 expression were significantly higher in early AS than that in early RA in perivascular region and sublining interstitial tissue. BMP2 mRNA and BMP2 expression were significantly higher in AS than that in RA in different synovial regions.No significant relation was found between TGF-?1/BMP2 expression and CRP/ESR/platelet count in early AS. A positive relation was found between the TGF-?1 and synovial hypertrophy in synovium lining layer region, and between TGF-?1 and straight vessels,vascular density in perivascular region, and between BMP2 and synovial hypertrophy in sublining region in early AS. Conclusion Expression of TGF-?1 mRNA and TGF-?1 protein is higher in AS synovial tissue than that in RA. BMP2 mRNA and BMP2 expression are significantly higher in AS than that in RA.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of combination of vascularized fibular head epiphysis and peroneal neurovascular reverse flap repair defects of bone and skin in lateral malleolus in children.Methods Eight children with defects of bone and skin in lateral malleolus were recruited from May,2009 to September,2014.The age of children was ranging from 4 to 12 years old.Four children were injured by wheel twist,2 children were injured by traffic accident,1 was injured by machinery,and 1 was crashed with heavy object.The size of soft-tissue defect was ranging from 3 cm × 5 cm to 7 cm × 9 cm.The flap and bone healing along with ankle joint function scoring were evaluated.Patients were reviewed every 4 to 6 weeks during one year after their surgery,and they were reviewed every 6 months one year later.Results Secondary repair were conducted in all children.The curative effect got well after follow up for 6 months to 2 years(mean,12 months).The flap and fibular head epiphysis were well developed.The ossification of fibular head epiphysis did not found.According to American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle function evaluation criteria,the results were excellent in 5 cases,good in 2 cases and poor in 1 at 10 months after operation.The shape and function of ankle joint were good,with one exception.The average motion degree of ankle joint was (68±5.12)°.Conclusion Combination of vascularized fibular head epiphysis and peroneal neurovascular reverse flap repair defects of bone and skin in lateral malleolus in children is effective.

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that basic fibroblast growth factor has effects on stimulating vessel regeneration and collateral reconstruction. However, administration was performed mostly by peripheral vein, left atrium or percutaneous coronary intervention, and it is difficult to achieve an effective therapeutic concentration in the local myocardium. OBJECTIVE: Based on the property of poly(D, I-lactic-coglycolic acid) (PLGA), to investigate outcomes of inducing neovascularization in the myocardium in combination of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) by ensuring target release of protein growth factor in local tissue. METHODS: PLGA and bFGF were dissolved in dichloromethane. This liquid mixture was rolled into the form of a hollow tube (3.0 mm outer diameter, 2.8 mm inner diameter, 0.1 mm thick, 10 mm length) for further use. The middle third of the left anterior descending coronary artery of mini-swines was ligated, and the local myocardium became dark purple. After the successful establishment by abnormal regional wall motion in the cardiac apex at anterior wall using ultrasound, the mini-swines were assigned to channels and bare scaffolds (BS) group and channels and bFGF-incorporating scaffolds (FS) group. The scaffold was implanted in the myocardium using self-made hollow bit. At 6 weeks, the number of proliferative cells was quantified by immunohistochemical staining. New vessels were quantified utilizing Image-Pro Plus software package in both groups. Quantitative analysis of changes in mass defect percentage was performed by Emory Cardiac Toolbox software combined with single-photon-emission computed tomography. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At 6 weeks, number of proliferative cells and the density of new vessels were significantly increased in the FS group compared with BS group(P<0.001). Single-photon-emission computed tomography illustrates that MDP was significantly lower in the FS group compared with the BS group (P < 0.001). Results have suggested that PLGA scaffolds that incorporate bFGF were able to induce angiogenesis and enhance blood-flow perfusion.

Objective To evaluate the hemocompatibility of polydioxanone(PDO)bioabsorbable stents.Methods Whole blood clotting time,prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),platelet adhesion and hemolysis were used to evaluate the hemocompatibility of PDO bioabsorbable stents,and the results were compared with those of 316L stainless stents which are widely used clinically.Results The anticoagulant property of PDO bioabsorbable stents was similar to that of 316L stainless stents.Both PDO bioabsorbable and 316L stainless stents were not prone to activate blood coagulation factors.Compared with 316L stainless stents,PDO bioabsorbable stents had weaker platelet adhesion and activation.Hemolysis ratios of two groups were less than 5%.Conclusions PDO bioabsorbable stents had good hemocompatibility in vitro.

An analysis of the fundamental concepts for public hospital reform further defined public hospitals and other hospitals,business and non-business in nature,public benefits and welfare,as well as public benefits and profit-oriented hospitals.These distinctions can help reformers of public hospitals clarify their concepts,make clear the purpose and direction of the public hospitals reform,so as to speed up the reform with theory support.

This paper studied the development stages in terms of the public nature of public hospitals in China and analyzed the causes for their weakened public benefits.It proposed the principle of government guidance,achieving government purchasing of healthcare services as the roadmap,as well as building and improving the service purchasing system,performance appraisal system,and payment review system along with supervision system.These measures are designed to make public hospitals in their public benefit nature with scientific system design,powerful institutional guarantee,and efficient execution strategies.
