To treat hallux valgus, minimally invasive osteotomy on 1st metatarsal neck,immobilization with "8-shape" bandagev was performed, and the effect was definited. The principles of osteotomy stability were analyzed from the osteotomy position, methods, direction and angle. The grinding drill was used to increase friction coefficient between the ends of osteotomy. Correct direction of osteotomy and suitable angle were the key point of stability. The immobilization with "8-shape" bandage complied with the principle of elastic fixation created the conditions for the slight movement of the osteotomy ends. Compared with internal fixation ,it was better on osteotomy healing,and the osteotomy ends were stable and healed with cartilage

Objective To study the protective effect of hyperoxic liquid preconditioning in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Methods Thirty rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: group A undergoing all procedures except ischemia-reperfusion, group C receiving the routine infusion of hyperoxic liquid 15mL/kg for seven days, and group B receiving the routine treatment infusion of saline instead of hyperoxic liquid 15mL/kg. Seven days later, the myocardial ischemic reperfusion model (I/R) was fabricated, ECG and homodynamic index were monitored simultaneously. Plasma MDA and SOD level was assayed before ligation, 30min after ligation and 1, 2, 3h after reperfusion. Results Hyperoxic liquid preconditioning can lower ST segment and improve index of hemodynamics and significantly reduce myocardial infarction size in group C compared with group B((P

Objective To investigate the changes in gastric intramucosal pH(pHi) and the effect of hyperoxic liquid on intramucosal pH(pHi) after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbits.Methods Twenty healthy male adult rabbits,weighing 2.3-3.0 kg,were randomly divided into two groups: control group(n=10) and hyperoxic liquid group(n=10).Hyperoxic liquid group received the routine infusion of hyperoxic liquidle of 10 mL/kg for seven days,while control group received the routine treatment infusion of saline instead of hyperoxic liquid of 10 mL/kg.Seven days later,the myocardial ischemic reperfusion model(I/R) was established,and ECG and homodynamic indexes were monitored simultaneously.Hemodynamic indexes and pHi were measured before myocardial ischemia,30 min after myocardial ischemia as well as 1 h and 2 h after reperfusion.Results Hyperoxic liquid could lower ST segment and improve hemodynamic indexes.pHi decreased significantly after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in both groups.Compared with that in control group,pHi was significantly higher at 1 h and 2 h after reperfusion in hyperoxic liquid group(P

Dengue virus (DENV) is a re-emerging disease transmitted by the Aedes mosquitoes and has become a major public health problem in southern China. Currently, no antiviral drug or effective vaccine exist to control this disease. The chimeric DENV structural protein vaccine cannot elicit balanced levels of protective immunity to each of the four viral serotypes; therefore, non-structural protein components may be required to construct an effective DENV vaccine. The Dengue virus non-structural 1 (DENV NS1) protein plays a critical role in viral pathogenesis and protective immunity. Therefore, immunity to Dengue 1-4 NS1 subtypes may be crucial for the prevention of severe disease. This review attempts to provide an overview about the structure and function of DENV NS1.

Objective To evaluate the effects of different doses of propofol or isoflurane on the cochlear blood flow (CBF) in guinea pigs.Methods Fifty-four adult male guinea pigs,aged 3 months,weighing 400-500 g,were randomly divided into 6 groups (n =9 each).In P1,P2 and P3 groups,propofol was infused for 115 min at 10,20 and 40 mg· kg-1 · h-1,respectively,after a loading dose of 5 mg/kg was injected over 5 min.In S1,S2 and S3 groups,isoflurane was inhaled for 120 min with end-tidal concentrations of 1％,2％ and 3 ％,respectively.Mean arterial pressure and CBF were recorded before administration (baseline,T1) and during the period of drug administration.Distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) was measured at T1,at the end of administration (T2) and 1 h after administration (T3).Five animals in each group were sacrificed and organs of Corti were harvested for observation of morphology of out hair cells by scanning electron microscopy.Results Propofol decreased MAP and increased CBF and DPOAE amplitude in a dose-dependent manner.Isoflurane decreased MAP and CBF in a dose-dependent manner.1％ isoflurane increased DPOAE amplitude,however,2％ and 3％ isoflurane decreased it and caused damage to out hair cells.Conclusion Propofol induces an increase in CBF in guinea pigs,while high concentration of isoflurane induces a decrease in CBF.Isoflurane inhibits CBF autoregulation,which makes CBF more sensitive to perfusion pressure,thus causing damage to hearing function.This is the reason why high concentration of isoflurane induces a decrease in CBF.

Objective To observe the effect of fetus distress treated with hyperoxin liquid and to provide evidence for this treatment.Methods A total of 70 lying-in women with fetus distress during cesarean section were randomly divided into two groups: treatment group was given infusion of hyperoxin liquid by vein and control group was given 50g/L glucose.The blood gas was analyzed in the two groups,and the SOD and MAD of fetus ambilical blood were also tested.The blood gas analysis and the Apgar scoring of neonates were carried out.Results The PaO2 in pregnant and lying-in women and SOD,PO2,SaO2,HCO-3 and BE of fetuses in treatment group were obviously higher than those in control group.The MDA and PCO2 were significantly lower than those in control group.The Apgar score in treatment group was better than that in control group.Conclusion Hyperoxin liquid can improve the anoxia status of fetus distress and save time for further clinical treatment.

Objective To evaluate the effects of endogenous NO on the chemosensitivity of human breast cancer cell. Methods MCF-7 cells were cultured as monolayer, incubated with cytokine IL-1β. The pro-duction of NO was detected by NO assay. The expression of iNOS protein was measured by Western blotting. Establishing control group and experimental group, the chemosensitivity of MCF-7 cells incubated by L-NMMA and L-Arg to ADM and 5-Fu was studied by MTT assay. Results There was a positive correlation of dose-dependence between NO production and IL-1β concentration. MCF-7 cells expressed plenty of iNOS by induetion of IL-1β. There was no significant difference on iNOS whether L-NMMA and L-Arg existed or not. Incubating MCF-7 cells with 0. 5 μmol/L or 1 μmol/L ADM, the survival rate of experiment group was remarkablely decreased(P < 0.05) ; L-NMMA significantly increased survival rate of experiment group(P < O. 05) ; L-Arg decreased survival rate of experiment group(P < 0.05). Conclusion The induction of IL-113 in MCF-7 cells can increase the production of endogenous NO, which increases MCF-7 cells' sensitivity to chemotherapy.

Objective To evaluate a modified liver hanging maneuver(retrohepatic tunnel of the IVC) in patients undergoing hemihepatectomy.Methods Twenty-four patients undergoing hemihepatectomy were divided into two groups:modified liver hanging maneuver group(n=12)and Pringle's maneuver group(n=12).The amount of intraoperative bleeding,operation time,postoperative liver function,liver function recovery and complications were compared between the two groups.Reset All operation were performed successfully and there were no difference in the time of operation etween the two groups.There was a difierence in the amount of mean intraoperative blood loss between the two groups.It was(160±40)ml in liver hanging group and(560±120)ml in Pringle's group(P＜0.01).Liver function recovery measured on postoperative day 3 and day 7 was better in liver hanging groupthan that in Pringle's group(P＜0.01).The volume of postoperative peritoneal serous fluid dranage was significantly less in liver hanging group(P＜0.01).Conclusion The modified liver hanging maneuver is useful for hemihepatectomy.
