[Objective]To study the surgical treatment of thoracolumbar fractures in multiple injured patients.[Method]Data from 12 consecutive patients with thoracolumbar fractures and multiple trauma were reviewed retrospectively.Three patients with thoracolumber fractures were complicated by pelvic(acetabular) fracture,11 by lower extremity fracture and 6 by upper extremity fracture.All the patients were treated operatively.The spinal injury and pelvic fractures were first treated.The operation time,bleeding volume as well as Frankle score were recorded.[Result]The average operation time was(202?52)min and the blood loss was(500?325)ml per patient,and the average operation time was 59 min and blood loss was 146 ml for an injury.The average Frankle score increased from 2.8 preoperatirely to 3.5 at 3 months after operation.Bone reunion or fusion was achieved in 8 patients at a one-year follow-up.[Conclusion]Damage control orthopedics should be emphasized for severe polytrama.The operation timing and techniques depend on the characteristics of fractures and the general conditions of the patients.Minimally invasive technique is useful in reducing the operation time and injury reaction,promoting early mobilization and lessening complications.

Objective To study the method of the cultured human conjunctival epithelium combined with amniotic membrane transplantation for treatment of conjunctival defect. Methods 20 eyes of 10 rabbits were divided into study group (10 right eyes ) and contoal group (10 left eyes ). The conjunctival epithelium got from conjunctiva of fornix of study group about 1mm?1mm was explanted on human amniotic membrane and was cultured in vitro by tissue inoculation 2 weeks before operation. The bulbar conjunctivals of 20 eyes were excised. The conjunctival defect was covered by the graft in the study group and uncovered in the control group. The growth features of the grafts were observed. Results The conjunctival epithelium explanted on human amniotic membrane connected each other into membrane in 6 days, and multi-layer cells were observed. In the study group, all grafts were inosculated with and were similar to normal conjunctival in 2 weeks. There was not immune rejection occurred. In the control group, the conjunctival defect was recovered by scar. Conclusion It is effective of the cultured conjunctival epithelium combined with amniotic membrane transplantation for treatment of conjunctival defect.

Objective To study the effect of extract of leave ginkgo biloba (EGb) for protection of the motor and sensory neurons axotomy-induced in rats. Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 180- 220 g (8- 9 weeks of age), were randomly divided into control group and EGb24/6 group. Models of sciatic nerve injury were established by transection of left sciatic nerve at 0.5 cm away from the points of muscular innervation. The proximal stump of sciatic nerve was double ligated to inhibit nerve regeneration. The distal end of the nerve was implanted into the biceps femoris. Then 2 ml of normal saline was given to control group, and 2 ml of EGb24/6 to the EGb24/6 groups daily. The rats were sacrificed in 7,14,28 days after surgery respectively, and then 4% paraformaladehyde was perfused transcardially. The L4- 6 spinal cord and L5 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) were harvested. HE staining and CV technique were used for detection of the motor neurons and compared with contra-lateral side. TUNEL technique was used for detection of apoptotic motor and sensory neurons. Eletron microscopic technique was used for observation of change of L5 DRG neurons. Result The number of motor neurons was significantly higher in EGb24/6 group in each postoperative period than that in control group (P

Objective The DNA fingerprints of cultivated Pinellia ternata collected from different geographic regions were generated by using AFLP markers to find the feasibility in analyzing their genetic diversity, relationship, and germplasm identification. Methods The DNA polymorphism of 51 cultivated germplasm of P. ternata collected from 17 different habitats and four cultivars of P. pedatisecta (outgroup) were detected by AFLP molecular markers. Results The DNA fingerprints of 51 individuals of P. ternata were obviously distinguished by eight pairs of high polymorphic and efficient primer combinations screened from 64 primer combinations. The phylogenetic clustering results revealed that all the tested cultivars were fully differentiated, and individuals from the same regions were mainly clustered together. Moreover, cultivars from East-China, including Zhejiang and Jiangsu Provinces, displayed clear genetic distinction from other regions. The clustering results were strongly supported by Bootstrap test. Conclusion AFLP Markers can be potentially used in analyzing of genetic diversity, relationship, and germplasm identification of this medicinal plant, and the germplasm from regions of East-China, including Zhejiang and Jiangsu Provinces, displays the relative separate genetic characters from other regions.

A case of eosinophilic lymphoid granuloma(ELG)was reported and the related literatures were reviewed.ELG is rare in clinic. The etiology and pathogenesis of ELG was unclear.The clinical feature includes enlarged lymph nodes which were always predilected for the head and neck regions,eosinophilic granulocytes and serum IgE rising.Lymphoid tissue hyperplasis formation of lymphoid follicles with active germinal centres are common in pathological examination.There is diffuse infiltration of eosinophils in interfollicular and perivascular zones. Surgery,drug therapy and radiotherapy are all effective for the treatment,but recurrence is often.

Objective To analyze the epidemiologic data of patients withClostridium botulinum food poisoning, and to improve the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of food borne botulism.Methods A retrospective study was conducted. Fifty-three patients withClostridium botulinum food poisoning admitted to Chinese PLA Center of Poisoning and Treatment from January 2009 to December 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into mild, moderate, and severe groups according to the severity of disease. The clinical data including medical history, epidemiology data, routine blood test and blood biochemistry at hospital admission, the vital signs and arterial blood gas analysis before and after treatment, as well as the occurrence frequency of symptom and sign on set were collected.Results Fifty-three patients with food borne botulism were enrolled, with 33 patients in mild group, 13 in moderate group, and 7 in severe group. Most of the patients were female, the age distribution was in large span, the outbreak of disease was in groups mainly with the family, and patients were mainly located in Hebei Province, Beijing and Henan Province. The outbreaks were mainly happened in Spring and Summer, and homemade fermentation products were still the first cause of poisoning with the average latent period of (51.01±4.78) hours. The majority of patients with botulism were in mild resulted from the type A toxin. With the aggravation of disease, hospitalization time was gradually increased, white blood cell (WBC) and neutrophils (NEUT) at hospitalization admission, and respiratory rate (RR), heart rate (HR), fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) before the treatment were shown in obviously rising trend, albumin (ALB) at hospitalization admission and pH, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) before treatment were in decline. The parameters in severe group were most severe, and had significant differences as compared with those of mild group [hospitalization time (days): 72.57±39.52 vs. 6.61±3.72, WBC (×109/L): 13.01±6.44 vs. 6.85±2.07, NEUT: 0.85±0.07 vs.0.63±0.14, RR (bpm): 32.14±4.33 vs. 15.18±1.70, HR (bpm): 132.29±5.19 vs. 75.54±8.24, FiO2: 0.32±0.05 vs. 0.21±0.00, ALB (g/L): 38.57±4.65 vs. 42.09±4.57, pH: 7.08±0.10 vs. 7.38±0.07, PaO2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 75.16±5.24 vs. 98.39±1.50, SaO2: 0.78±0.06 vs. 0.97±0.02, allP < 0.05]. The symptom and sign on set of 53 patients with food borne botulism was dizziness, followed by fatigue, blurred vision, nausea, and other symptoms and signs were lower than 50%, and the occurrence of dizziness with rank one happen rate was significantly higher than blurred vision and nausea (χ2 values were 7.209 and 10.502 respectively, andP values were 0.007 and 0.004 respectively). After the on time prescription of botulinum antitoxins treatment, the clinical symptoms of patients could be relived quickly. All the patients were discharged without deaths.Conclusion In order to improve the recovery of the food borne botulism poisoning patients, adequate antitoxin and the related organ supports should be prescribed on time.
