Objective:To observe the effects of Yikunjing capsules on the bone histomorphometry indexes and the serum Interleukin-6 (IL-6) level in mice with osteoporosis.Methods:60 cases ofC57 female mice were randomly divided into 5 groups,such as model group (equal volume of normal saline),estrogen group (nilestriol,0.25 mg/kg),Yikunjing capsules high dose group (1.44 g/kg),Yikunjing capsules medium dose group (0.72 g/kg) and Yikunjing capsules low dose group (0.36 g/kg),sham group (equal volume of normal saline) were treated with sham operation.The mice in each group was intragastrically administrated for 70 days.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum IL-6 level.The bone histomorphometry index were detected with BI-2000 Medical Image Analysis System.And the Number of blood vessels in distal femoral metaphysis of each group was measured by CT.Results:Compared with the sham group,the width and area of trabecular bone,the thickness of cortical bone,area of trabecular bone,the number of osteoblasts,the bone mineral density and the number of blood vessels in model group were significantly reduced(P＜0.05),while the number of osteoclasts and serum IL-6 level were significantly increased (P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,above indexes in estrogen group,Yikunjing capsules high,medium,low dose group were improved (P＜0.05),and the effect of Yikunjing capsules high dose group and estrogen group was almost the same (P＞0.05).Conclusion:Yikunjing capsules can rectify the bone histomorphometry indexes reduce the serum IL-6 level and increase the number of blood vessels in mice with osteoporosis,and intragastrically administrating 1.44 g/kg Yikunjing capsules could get the better effect.

Objective To establish a normal lumbar spine 3-dimensional(3D) finite element model(FEM) and discuss the biomechanics of the lumbar motions. Methods A geometrical model was constructed on the basis of a healthy adult male's lumbar CT image.The lumbar spine FEM was established by finite element analysis software.After setting the boundary and loading the burden,the lumbar spine's range of motion and stress distribution in different institutions such as anterior flexion,posterior extension,left or right bending and axial rotating were recorded. Results The lumbar spine FEM included 114 953 tetrahedron units.The results of the FEM matched the results of the in vitro experiment of biomechanics. Conclusion The lumbar spine FEM can imitate the motions of the lumbar spine.

AIM: To determine the effect of suction duration on thickness and diameter of corneal flap created by microkeratome in porcine eyes in laser in situ kerato-mileusis (LASIK).METHODS: Sixty porcine eyes were randomly assigned to three groups according to different suction durations: group 1 (10 seconds), group 2 (20 seconds), and group 3 (30 seconds). A Moria M2 microkeratome (Moria, France) with a 160μm head was used to create a corneal flap. Corneal flap thickness was measured by automated ultrasonic pachymetry, and the flap diameter was measured by a vernier caliper.RESULTS: The flap thickness of group 1, group 2 and group 3 was 146.05±13.46μm, 157.35±18.95μm and 169.25±21.02μm, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference among three groups (P=0.001). The mean flap diameter in groups 1, 2 and 3 was 8.63±0.19mm, 8.89±0.24mm and 9.06±0.18mm, respectively. A statisti-cally significant difference was found among groups (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: In LASIK in porcine eyes, an increase in suction duration resulted in a thicker and greater flap.

Transverse fracture is the most common in patella fracture and tension band fixation is one of the most effective methods. Surgical wire tension band technique is simple, the use of materials is also simple, but it is not strong and difficult to promote. Kirschner tension band technique can get satisfactory reduction with reliable fixation, but it is easy to complicate with steel wire breakage and Kirschner loosening. Screw tension band technique inherits the traditional advantages of simple manipulation and reliable fixation, also overcomes the disadvantages of early activity limitations caused soft tissue irritation of tension band around knee, the slippage and breakage of internal fixation, and the technique can be popularized generally.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of contrast-enhanced transrectal ultrasound(CE-TRUS) in the perineal prostate biopsy. Methods A total of 116 patients was undergone prostate biopsy through the perineum under the direction of tansrectal ultrasound. Prostate biopsy standard was based on 2007 CUA revised guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of urological diseases.Color Doppler ultrasonography was used to check the prostate and to learn the prostate focal lesion,size, number and echo color Doppler flow characteristics. Of the 116 cases, 43 patients was undergone contrast-enhanced transrectal ultrasound. Results The biopsy results confirmed the diagnosis of prostate cancer was 64 cases, Benign prostatic hyperplasia was 52 cases. Of 43 cases who undergone contrast-enhanced transrectal ultrasound, Prostate cancer and Benign prostatic hyperplasia were 25 and 18 cases, respectively. CE-TRUS group and TRUS group showed no statistical difference between two groups. Analyzed the cases with PSA≤30 ng/ml, CE-TRUS group had a higher positive rate of biopsy (P=0.046). Conclusion TRUS guided transperineal biopsy of prostate might be an method for the diagnosis of prostate cancer with a higher accuracy rate. CE-TRUS can improve the biopsy positive rate of prostate cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of a period of joint fusion and plate internal fixation for four parts calcaneal fractures.Methods The clinical data of 53 patients with four parts calcaneal fractures from January 2009 to January 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.Twenty-two patients were performed a period of joint fusion (joint fusion group),31 patients were performed plate internal fixation (plate internal fixation group).The Bohler angle and Gissane corner before and after operation,operation time and bleeding,the Maryland foot function score between two groups were compared.Results Compared with before operation,the Bohler angle and Gissane corner in plate internal fixation group and joint fusion group were improved significantly after operation (34.6° ± 4.2° vs.5.7° ± 2.4°,125.4° ± 8.2° vs.87.2° ± 6.8°,32.8° ± 3.9° vs.5.4° ± 2.7°,127.6° ± 7.8° vs.86.9° ± 6.7°),and there were significant differences (P ＜0.05),but the Bohler angle and Gissane corner before and after operation between two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The operation time and bleeding were (52.1 ± 5.1) min,(50.0 ± 10.2) ml in plate internal fixation group and (70.3 ± 5.2) min,(105.0 ± 20.5) ml in joint fusion group,and there were significant differences between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).The fineness rate of Maryland foot function at 6 months follow-up between two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The plate internal fixation and joint fusion is therapeutic equivalence in treatment of four parts calcaneal fractures.Due to the small surgical trauma and less bleeding of plate internal fixation,it may be preferred in the treatment of four parts calcaneal fractures.
