Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of dual-plate for treatment of comminuted distal humerus fractures in adult. Meth-ods 28 patients with distal humeral fractures were treated with condylar anatomical plate interal fixation. The supracondylar fracture was fixed with condylar anatomical plating, and the two plates were kept in 90°with each other. Results The 28 cases were followed up average-ly 26 months (12 to 34 months). All fractures healed and there was no delayed union or nonunion cases. According to Cassebaum scoring system, there were 9 cases of excellent,14 cases of good, 4 cases of moderate and 1 case of bad. According to Morrey-Chao scoring system, there were 16 cases of cases,11 cases of good. The average time of bone healing was 10 weeks. Conclusion In treatment of comminuted distal humerus fractures in adult, open reduction and dual-plate internal fixation can get good clinical results. The placement of the dual-plate may depend on surgeon experience and preference and the fracture pattern present.

Articular cartilage repair is limited. Current treatments for cartilage defect are less satisfactory, and rarely restore full function or return the tissue to its native normal state. The rise of tissue engineering holds great promise for the generation of functional cartilage tissue substitutes. The history of cartilage tissue engineering and highlights the applications and advantages of various kinds of scaffolds in cartilage tissue engineering, such as native scaffolds, synthesis scaffolds, composite scaffolds and nanometer scaffolds had been introduced. But native scaffolds have weak strength and immunogenicity insufficiency, synthesis scaffolds degrade quickly, whose degrading products have cytotoxicity,which need further improvement. The application of superficial decoration overcomes the disadvantage of some scaffolds to an extend. Composite scaffolds possess the advantages of several scaffolds, it points out the direction of future scaffolds research. The development of Nanometer technique endows newly-synthesis scaffolds with nano-grade, thus it has some advantages and give a new way for the development of tissue engineering. At the end, the problems of these scaffolds, their trend of development and perspective studies were discussed.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether CD4+ CD25+ CD127dim/- regulatory T lymphocytes (Treg) can induce the proliferation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) and expression of fibrosis-related factors on HSC in vitro and further to explore the mechanism of Treg inducing fibrogenesis. MethodsHSC LX-2 cells were subcultured.CD4+ CD25+ CD127dim/- cells were purified using magnetic cell separation. The HSC were co-cultured with Treg by direct contact or by Transwell system in vitro. The HSC cultured alone was used as control. Cell proliferation was measured by CCK-8 assay.The expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 was detected by enzyme-linked inmunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the expressions of hyaluronic acid (HA) and precollagen Ⅲ (PC Ⅲ ) were detected by radio immunoassay (RIA). The data were analyzed by LSD-t test. ResultsHSC proliferation was strongest when Treg∶ HSC= 1.5∶ 1. The absorbance in direct contact co-culture group and Transwell system co-culture group was (0. 713±0. 032) cpm and (0. 735±0. 028) cpm, respectively, both of which were higher than that in control group [(0. 677 ± 0. 029) cpm](t = 5. 4003 and 8. 7878,respectively; both P＜0. 01). The concentrations of TGF-β1 in the supernatant were (781. 59 ±76.45) pg/mL and (813. 53±60. 62) pg/mL, respectively in direct contact co-culture group and Transwell system co-culture group, which were significantly higher than that in control group [(722.51±59. 66) pg/mL](t = 4.0014 and 6. 1653, respectively; both P＜0.01).The concentrations of HA were (433. 575±27.90) ng/mL and (445.40±23.73) ng/mL, respectively in direct contact co-culture group and Transwell system co-culture group, which were higher compared to that in control group [-(415. 83±19.44) ng/mL](t =3. 3124 and 5. 5231, respectively; both P＜0.01). Likewise, the concentrations of PCⅢ were (21. 93± 1.71) and (23. 125± 1.87) ng/mL in direct contact group and Transwell group, respectively compared to (20. 10± 1.49) ng/mL in control group (t = 4. 8082 and 7. 9436, respectively; both P ＜ 0.01).Furthermore, the absorbance,concentrations of TGF-β1, HA and PC Ⅲ in Transwell co-culture group were all higher compared to direct contact group (t = 3. 3875, 2.1639, 2. 2107 and 3.1354, respectively; all P＜0. 05).ConclusionsThe cell proliferation and the expressions of fibrosis-related factors in HSC increase greatly after co-cultured with CD4+ CD25+ CD127dim/-Treg. Therefore, Treg may play an important role in inducing liver fibrogenesis.

BACKGROUND:Currently, literatures about autologous vein transplantation are few, and the research on the effect of different parts of autologous vein transplantation are not found yet. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the experiences of establishing the fistula using autologous vein transplantation so as to investigate the method of improving the success rate of surgery. METHODS:We analyzed retrospectively the data of 40 cases of establishing the fistula using autologous vein transplantation, and then compared the successful rate of autologous vein transplantation fistula, blood flow and operating time, thereby analyzing the influence of diabetes melitus on the successful rate of autologous vein transplantation fistula. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The successful rates of autologous vein transplantation fistula at different parts ranging from high to low were as folows: the cephalic vein, great saphenous vein, basilic vein and smal saphenous vein. Blood flow of the upper limb for vein transplantation fistula was obviously higher than that of the lower limb (P < 0.05). The operating time of autologous vein transplantation fistula was longer in the upper limbs than in the lower limbs (P < 0.01). For patients with diabetes melitus, the successful rate of autologous vein transplantation was markedly lower than those with no diabetes melitus (P < 0.01). For the hemodialysis patients with poor upper limb superficial vein, autologous vein transplantation is a better way of establishing the vascular access. Vein transplantation of the upper limbs is better than that of the lower limbs in success rate and operating time. Autologous vein transplantation fistula is not suitable for the patients with diabetes melitus.
