Objective To evaluate the clinical outcomes of external fixator with lumbopelvic distraction spondylodesis in treatment of vertically unstable pelvic fractures. Methods From January 2008 to March 2009, 9 patients (4 males and 5 females) with a vertically unstable pelvic fracture were treated with modular external fixator with lumbopelvic distraction spondylodesis. According to the classification of Tile, 9fractures were classified as type C. This fixation construct comprises a vertical lumbopelvic distraction component which fixed L4.5 and the posterior superior iliac spine and a transverse fixation which fixed anterior iliac spine with external fixator. Results All patients were followed up 12-18 months after surgery, with an average of 14.3 months. Postoperative X-ray showed satisfactory reduction of pelvic fracture. Pelvic fractures healed in all patients without loss of reduction 3-6 months after operation. According to Matta reduction evaluation criteria, 6 patients were excellent and 3 good. For the two patients with sacral neurological injuries,appropriate surgical decompression was performed to improve the symptom and minimize the deformity. No iatrogenic complications of neurovascular injury occurred. Patients now walk unassistedly without pain in the waist or legs, and with no shortening of lower limbs or claudication. By considering symptom and satisfactory scores, the Majeed functional assessment revealed that seven patients had excellent results and two good at one year. Conclusion External fixator with lumbopelvic distraction spondylodesis that allowed early mobilization and ambulation, with general applicability and definite safety, is an effective surgical technique for the treatment of vertically unstable pelvic fracture.

Traumatic brain injury(TBI), also known as intracranial injury or head trauma, specifically refers to the brain tissue damage caused by trauma.Currently the mechanism of TBI and repair therapy after nerve injury become a hotspot in brain research.Duplicating animal models plays a significant role in promoting experimental therapeutics of TBI.This review systematically describes the progress in animal models for TBI including impact brain injury, nonimpact acceleration head injury and blast(explosion)wave-induced neurotrauma, which have been established at home and abroad.Based upon the aforementioned models, some relevant applications in experimental therapeutics are simultaneously enumerated.Hopefully all these information provides scientific guidance for the pharmacodynamic screening of potential neuroprotective drugs.

0.05). Conclusions The expression of angiotensinⅡincreases in BPH tissues in rats. It is suggested that angiotensinⅡmay affect cell proliferation but not significantly affect cell apoptosis of the rat prostate.

Objective To explore the influence of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on the differentiation of nerve stem cells (NSCs) from neonatal rat hippocampus in vitro and to find new revulsant of NSCs,which can improve the percentage of NSCs differentiating into neurons.Methods Twenty-four hours neonatal rats were selected to obtain hippocampus tissue to culture NSCs in serum-free culture medium by suspending culture.The high pure NSCs were obtained after passing 2 generations.The culture cells were identified as NSCs by staining of nestin,which was NSCs special marker.After passaged three generations,the NSCs were randomly classified into 2 groups:test group and control group.There were 15 pieces per group.There was 2 mL per piece,which contains 1?105 cells.50 g/L fetal bovine serum(FBS) and 20 ?g/L BDNF were added into foundational culture medium in test group;only 50 g/L FBS was added into foundational culture medium in control group.The neurons and their percentage were tested using the immunofluorescence labeling and flow cytometer after 7 days of differentiated cultivation.Results The hippocampus tissue cells grew in globular in serum-free culture medium by suspending culture,which expressed highly positive by nestin immunofluorescence staining.Its purity was above 90%.The percentage of neurone specific enolase(NSE)-positive cells in test group was 60.45%,which was obviously higher than that of control group (23.67%).The difference was significant between 2 groups(?2=27.75 P

Objective To analyze the relationship between cervical lordosis and the development of dysphagia after anterior cervical spine surgery.Methods From June 2007 to May 2010,data of 172 successive patients who had undergone ACDF operation in our hospital were reviewed in this study.The presence and duration of postoperative dysphagia were recorded via face-to-face questioning or telephone interview at least one year after the procedure.Plain cervical radiographs before and after surgery were collected.The C2-7 angle was measured.The change of C2-7 angle was defined as dC2-7 angle=postoperative C2-7-preoperative C2-7 angle.The correlation between postoperative dysphagia and dC2-7 angle was studied.Results There were 22 patients in dysphagia group,including 17 males and 5 females.Their age ranged from 25 to 70 years old,and average was 47.7±5.4.The average of BMI was 25.0±2.9 kg/m2.150 patients were in non-dysphagia group,including 101 males and 49 females.Their age ranged from 18 to 72 years old,and average age was 49.2±4.8.The average of BMI was 24.4±3.4 kg/m2.There was no statistical difference in gender,age,and BMI between two groups.The dC2-7 angle of dysphagia group ranged from-1 °-20.5°,and average was 8.6°±4.0°.The dC2-7 angle of non-dysphagia group ranged from-13°-28.5°,and average was 5.0°±4.3°.There was significant difference in dC2 7 angle between dysphagia and non-dysphagia group.Spearman Analysis revealed that there was strong correlativity between dC2-7 angle and postoperative dysphagia.When dC2-7 angle was greater than 5°,the chance of developing postoperative dysphagia significantly increased (19.3％ [17/88] vs 6.0％ [5/84]).What's more,Spearman Analysis also revealed that there was no correlativity between dC2 7 angle and degree of operative dysphagia.There was no significant difference in gender,age,and BMI between dysphagia and non-dysphagia group.There was no statistical difference in operative time,blood loss revision surgery,revision surgery ratio,most cephalic operative level and number of operative levels between dysphagia with non-dysphagia group.Logistic regression model showed that an increased likelihood of postoperative dysphagia persists with increasing dC2-7 angle,but had no relationship with operative time,blood loss,revision surgery,most cephalic operative level and number of operative levels.Conclusion dC2-7 angle may play an important role in the development of postoperative dysphagia.We found no statistical difference in operative time,blood loss revision surgery,revision surgery ratio,most cephalic operative level and number of operative levels between dysphagia and non-dysphagia group.Intraoperative measurement of the dC2-7 angle is practical and essential for reducing the postoperative dysphagia.

Objective To explore the impact of combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic treatment on bile leak in hepatic hydatid disease at a high attitude region.Methods The clinical data of 50 patients who underwent combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic treatment were compared with 50 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery alone for hepatic hydatid internal capsule excision surgery.Results In the combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic group,the incidence of biliary fistula after surgery was 15％,the incision infection rate was 13％,the length of hospitalization was (11.6 ± 3.8) days and the postoperative time to take off drain was (14.3 ± 7.9) days.These were significantly better than those in the laparoscopic alone group.The operation time in the former group was (108.2 ± 28.4)min,which was slightly longer than the laparoscopy group.Conclusion The combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic treatment is a safer therapeutic option in treating hepatic hydatid disease with less trauma,faster recovery and shorter hospital stay than laparoscopic surgery alone in a high attitude region.
