Objective To investigate the curative efficacy of fracture with closed reduction and percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation of the simple lateral injury for humeral supracondylar fracture of Gartland type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ in children by the emergency treatment and selective surgery. Methods From March 2010 to March 2012,sixty children with Gartland type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ fresh humeral supracondylar fracture were operated in Xianyang Center Hospital. Six-ty children were randomly divided into two groups:group A by emergency operation 8 hours after injury with closed re-duction method and lateral percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation only,group B initially treated with plast fixation,then undergoing surgery after 3 - 5 days of injury with the closed reduction and percutaneous pin fixation. The operation du-ration,frequency of intraoperative image intensifier,postoperative swelling,pain lasting time after injury and hospitaliza-tion cost were investigated in two groups. Results The average operation duration of group A was(18. 5 ± 12. 3)min, and that in group B was(20. 1 ± 15. 3)min,and there was a statistically significant difference between two groups(P ﹤0. 05). The frequency of intraoperative image intensifier was 6. 2 times on the average in group A,but 7. 3 times in group B,and there was a statistically significant difference between two groups(P ﹤ 0. 05). The postoperative swelling rate on 3,5,7 days after injury in group B was significantly higher than that of group A,and there was a statistically sig-nificant difference(all P ﹤ 0. 05). The duration of pain after injury in group A was(3. 44 ± 1. 23)days,but(5. 26 ± 1. 36)days in group B,which was significantly different;the nerve function recovery time of group A was(36. 5 ± 7. 0) d,and it was(36. 2 ± 7. 0)d in group B,which was not significantly different(P ﹥ 0. 05). The average hospitalization time and cost in group A was less than that in group B,which was significantly different(P ﹤ 0. 05). Finally there was no statistically significant difference in elbow joint function between two groups of children(P ﹥ 0. 05). Conclusions The emergency operation of closed reduction and percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation for the treatment of simple lateral injury in children with Gartland type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ fracture has the advantages over the selective surgery,including shorter operation time,less contact of X - ray intraoperatively,light postoperative swelling,short duration of pain in chil-dren,as well as the shortened hospitalization time,reduced costs,especially good efficacy for joint function recovery.

Objective To study the relationship between the level of plasma soluble P-selectin and pediatric migraine. Methods ABC-ELISA method was used to detect the soluble P-selectin levels in migraine patients (migraine group), migraine patients under control (control group) and healthy children (healthy control group). Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) and the platelet count were performed. Correlation of P-selectin and platelet count was analyzed. Results Plasma soluble P-selectin level in migraine group was significantly higher than that in the control group and the healthy control group (both P < 0.05). Significant difference was not found between control group and healthy control group (P > 0.05). TCD showed cerebral vasospasm more frequent in the migraine group than the control group, with significant difference (P < 0.05). Blood examination revealed that platelet count of migraine group is higher than that of the control group and the healthy control group, with significant differences (P < 0.05). When migraine was under control, the level of plasma soluble P-selectin reduced to normal and the frequncy of cerebral vasospasm and platelet counts were also within normal range. Plasma soluble P-selectin level and platelet count were positively correlated (r = 0.996, P < 0.01). Conclusions Plasma soluble P-selectin increased in migraine children, the incidence of cerebral vasospasm was significantly increased. Plasma soluble P-selectin level and platelet count were positively correlated. Plasma soluble P-selectin can be used as one of the indicators of diagnosis, treatment and efficacy evaluation in pediatric migraine.

Objective To observe the protective effects of autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplantation alone with bone marrow stem cells mobilization on liver cells in rats with severe acute paucreatitis in order to explore their mechanism. Method After the establishment of severe acute pancreatitis in rats made by intraperitoneal injection of L-arginine, 240 SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group (n = 48), model control group (n = 48), bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplanted (MSC) group (n = 48), granu-lacyte-colony stimulating factor treated (G-CSF) group (n = 48) and MSC + G-CSF (n = 48). The rats of MSC group were prepared by injection of 1.2 mL MSC into femoral vein 6 hours after SAP. The rats of G-CSF group were prepared by subcutaneous injection of G-CSF 40 μg/kg for 3 days before SAP. The rats of MSC + G-CSF group received MSC and G-CSF together. The rats of sham-operated group were injected with equal volume of nor-real saline. The rats in each group were sabdivided into 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h sub-groups (n = 12) according to the examinations in different intervals after operation. Of different subgroups, the morality rate, pathological changes, expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2 proteins and apoptosis indexes of livers were observed respectively. The contents of serum TNF-α,IL-6,ALT,AST,LDH and CRP were simultaneously determined to compare the difference among subgroups by variance analysis. Results Compared to the respective model group, the mortality rates of all treated 72 h subgroups showed no difference (P > 0.05), and no rats died before 48 h. The pathological injuries of liver cells were rather attenuated in rats of treated group than in rats of control group. The liver cell apoptosis in-dexes of 48 h and 72 h MSC + G-CSF subgroups were 107.1 ± 7.0, 110.3 ± 8.6, respectively; the expression of Bax in livers of 24 h,48 h and 72 h subgroups was 5.60±0.Z5, 5.69±0.22, 5.73±0.27, respectively;Bcl-2 protein of 48 h,72 h subgroups was 4.61±0.28, 4.43±0.28, respectively; compared with MSC and G-CSF subgroups the differences were significant (P < 0.05). The serum TNF-α, IL-6, ALT, AST, LDH and CRP de-creased obviously in 24 h/48 h treated subgroups in comparison with control group (P < 0.05). The MSC + G-CSF group showed more significant effects on those biomarkers than MSC or G-CSF alone after 48 hours (P < 0.05). Conclusions Autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplantation alonewith bone marrow stem cells mobilization can significantly protect livers from severe damage during the course of severe acute panere-atitis, and the probable mechanisms are likely associated with the pathological regeneration, anti-inflammatory ef-fect and apoptosis inhibition of MSC.

Objective To investigate the optimal window width and window level for measuring the airway dimensions with spiral CT scan in Japanese white big-ear rabbits so as to lay the foundation for airway stenting in animal experiments. Methods Multi-slice spiral CT scanning of cervico-thoracic region was performed in 30 healthy adult Japanese white big-ear rabbits, the anteroposterior and transversal diameter of the thoracic trachea, the anteroposterior diameter of the right and left bronchus were measured with lung window, mediastinum window and special fat window separately. The revealing rate of the tracheal wall and the measuring results in different windows and levels were recorded and compared with the anatomical data. The differences of the relevant data were statistically analyzed. Results With lung window, the tracheal wall was well demonstrated, but the relevant data were smaller than that with mediastinum window. With mediastinum window, the data were bigger and the tracheal wall border appeared blurred. The results obtained with fat window were close to the actual anatomical data. Conclusion For accurately measuring the anteroposterior and transversal diameter of the thoracic trachea in Japanese white big-ear rabbits with multi-slice spiral CT scan, fat window should be adopted, which is helpful for the preparation of tracheal and bronchial stents.
