To discuss the character and application of internal fixation with cervical lateral mass plate fixation in posterior approach of cervical spine operation. Twelve patients with cervical fracture dislocation treated with posterior cervical lateral mass fixation and bony fusion were selected. The patients received spinal decompression or reduction and decompression according to different diseases. A suitable 3.5 mm bi-cortical screw was inserted using Magerl technique. The results showed that solid bony fusion could be obtained at 3-5 months after the surgery, and the intervertebra heights as well as physiological curves were kept well without screw loosening or breaking. Neurological function was recovered to different extent. Cervical lateral mass plate fixation has the advantages of easily operation technique, wide indications, strong stability and short segment fixation.

Flavonoid Pilulae from Gegen were prepared by melting method. Using PEG 4000 and PEG 6000 as carrier. Serious of studies on the in yitro release kinetics were carried out.PEG4000 ; PEG6000 ratio had no effect on the release kinetics. PEG 4000: flavonoids ratio had an evident effect on the release properties of the pilulae, the higher the ratio,the faster the release rate. But when the PEG 4000, flavonoids ratio exceeded 10: 1, a reverse effect could be seen. Compared with "Gegen flavonoids" tablets, "Yufengingxin" tablets(release half time, T50= 94.79min), the pilulae gave a much fast release characteristic (T50 = 11. 56min).

To prepare and study the pharmacokinetics and release bioavailability in olunteers and concentrations in plasma in patients. METHODS: Ethylcellulose was used matrix in phase separation-coacervation for preparation of microencapsulation. The release experiments were performed in a rotating shaker. The isoniazid concentration in plasma was determined by spectrophotometrical method following a single oral dose of sustained-release cupsule and ordinary tablet respectively given to 10 volunteers in a open randomized cross-over test. MCP86 was used to process main pharmacokinetic parameters. RESULTS: The sustained-release of capsule and ordinary teblet in vitro, T50 was 1 h and 0.032 h respectively. The drug in sustained-release capsule was sustained release over 10 h. The main parameters in body: ordinary tablets: cmax=11.12 μgml-1, tmax=1.41 h, K=0.201 h-1; sustained release capsule: cmax=4.99 μgml-1, tmax=1.80 h, K=0.03 h-1. The concentration of blood at 36 h was (0±0)μgml-1 and 1.63 μgml-1 respectively. Except tmax, there was significant difference between the two fomulations (P＜0.01). The concentration of blood in patient at 1.5 h and 36 h. ordinary tablet and sustained-release capsule respectively were (8.24±2.60)μgml-1, (0±0)μgml-1and (3.69±0.86)μgml-1, (2.09±0.56)μgml-1. CONCLUSION: The sustained-release capsule will play an important part in prevention and treatment of tuberculosis as the result of its reasonable formulation and simple technology.

Objective To establish a new automatic lung segmentation method in order to deal with the omission of pleural nodules and pulmonary vessels. Methods Lung parenchyma were extracted from chest CT images with the inversed operation of 2D region growing and connected area classification, then the contours and locating the contour points were traced with scan line searching. Finally, the parameters of lung contour points were analyzed to locate the contours distorted by nodules, and curve spline was used to correct distorted contours. Results The experimental results of many sets of CT images verified that the technique proposed was effective. The comparison with other contour correction algorithm verified that line searching contour correction was superior. Conclusion The proposed algorithm includes tumors in the segment results, and confirms the integrality, veracity, real-time quality of this auto-segmentation method.

Objective To investigate the effects of waist and abdomen liposuction on glucose and lipid me-tabolism in patients.Methods 30 female patients with central obesity who underwent the waist and abdomen lipo-suction in our hospital from April 6, 2013 to October 6, 2013 were selected.For all cases, morning fasting blood within 3 months was collected before and after surgery respectively to examine blood glucose, blood lipids, glycated hemoglobin and other inspections.Results Glycated hemoglobin levels of the 30 cases undergoing liposuction sur-gery after 3 months were significantly lower than those at 3 months before surgery (p<0.05).Meanwhile, levels of glucose, lipids, fasting insulin were lower than those before surgery (p<0.05).Conclusion Liposuction can re-duce glycated hemoglobin levels in cases of central obesity.Meanwhile, it can change levels of blood sugar, blood lipids, fasting insulin, which will help reduce risks of complications of diabetics.

Objective To identify the susceptibile genes in a rat model for rheumatoid arthritis (RA),to determine whether sex affects disease onset and to define the mechanisms that impacts congenic genes on arthritis. Methods Arthritis-susceptible DA rats were compared with sex/age-matched congenic rats in which alleles were substituted with alleles from arthritis resistant PVG rats. Incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) was injected from the base of the tail. Arthritis was visually scored, the messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of congenic genes and cytokine were determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The differences between two groups were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test. Results In oil-induced arthritis (OIA), male congenic R16 rats deviated profoundly from DA rats by decreased arthritis severity (5.9±3.8 vs 9.3±2.3, P＜0.05 ), and markedly reduced lymph node mRNA levels for calsyntenin-3 (Clstn3) gene (0.7±0.4 vs 2.2±1.6, P＜0.01 ) and interleukin (IL)-17 (1.4±2.2 vs 2.7±2.9, P＜0.05) and IL-1β (1.5±2.1 vs 2.3±2.5,P＜0.05) levels. Conclusion Rat Clstn3 gene regulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines of OIA in male rats. The effect of arthritis-susceptible gene Clstn3 is gender-specific.

Objective To investigate the protective function and its mechanisms of eyclosporin A to immature brain tissue with convulsive brain damage. Methods 21-day-old SD rats were given lithium-pilocarpine to make the epilepsy model. Total 67 male rats had been investigated. Cyclosporin A (CsA) were injected three times at 6, 30, 54 hrs after model had been established. Three dosages had been chosen: 5, 10 and 25 mg/kg each time. The level of apoptotic cells, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in CA1 area of hippocampus had been determined, and compared with the rats without giving CsA. Results Rats from epilepsy model group had higher level of apoptosis, P-gp, GFAP expression than those from pseudo-model group. CsA injection by dose 5 mg/kg each time for three times reduced the level of P-gp, GFAP. Model group and pseudo-model group were same. Both the interventions of CsA injection by 10 mg/kg and 25 mg/kg can reduce the level of P-gp, GFAP, however neither of their effectiveness was better than CsA 5 mg/kg each time. Conclusions Small dosage of CsA may protect the immature brain tissue from convulsive brain damage by reducing the level of P-gp, GFAP in CA1 area of hippocampus.
