1.Inflammatory factor alteration and intervention for atherosclerosis after stenting
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(39):7711-7715
Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial disease and mediated by chronic inflammation from initiation to progression. Inflammatory factors of this process, such as C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, cell adhesion molecules and tumor necrosis factor-a, not only involve in atherosclerosis-related disease process, but also indicate the risk of cardiovascular events. Inflammatory factors level plays a significant role in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of atherosclerosis-related disease, such as acute coronary syndrome. Recent studies have shown that there is a marked inflammatory response after stenting, which plays an important role in the vascular remodeling process, especially in-stent restenosis. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the molecular mechanism and pathological changes in the process of inflammation and to study prevention and treatment of the inflammation. We believe that inflammatory processes will be new targets of therapy in preventing or treating atherosclerosis and its complications.

BACKGROUND: Most reported biomechanical studies on sacroiliac joint injury and fixation use cadavers or artificial bone models to simulate the sacroiliac joint injury.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the vertical stability of anterior plate fixation for sacroiliac joint dislocation using three-dimensional finite element method. METHODS: The anterior plate fixation model of unilateral sacroiliac joint dislocation was constructed on the basis of the three-dimensional finite element model of a complete pelvis. An axial load of 500 N was applied on the model; the cloud pictures of stress, strain and displacement were obtained after calculation and compared with that of the complete pelvis under the same conditions.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Stress concentration occurred at the internal fixation system; the maximum stress was found at the screws near the injured sacroiliac joint, far greater than the maximum stress of the complete pelvis under the same condition. The maximum strain was found in the healthy sacroiliac joint; the fixed sacroiliac joint had no strain. The maximum displacement was found in the injured sacroiliac joint; it was about twice longer than the complete pelvis. These findings indicate that the vertical stability of pelvis is poor using anterior plate internal fixation treatment for sacroiliac joint dislocation; and stress concentration occurs at the screws and plates.
