Objective To investigate the clinical effects and operation key-points of interphalangeal joint replacement arthroplasty for the treatment of traumatic arthritis.Methods From March 2005 to December 2010,5 patients with post-traumatic arthritis undergoing interphalangeal joint replacement arthroplasty in our hospital were selected.The operation indications,treatment of intraoperative flexor and extensor tendon lesion and postoperative rehabilitation were evaluated.Results Operative incisions of 5 cases were primary healing in class I grade A.Stitches were taken out 2 weeks after the operation.Patients were followed up for 1.5 years.The range of interphalangeal joint motion was 0 to 90 (extension/flexion) with no pain at end of follow-up.The hand function was excellent in 3 cases and good in 2 cases according to total active motion (TAM)hand function evaluation.Conclusions Interphalangeal joint replacement arthroplasty is an effective treatment for traumatic arthritis.Preoperative indications evaluation and postoperative rehabilitation should be focused on the treatment.

Objective To investigate the influence of ozagrel sodium (OS) on cerebral ischemic tolerance in rat induced by focal ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and on expression of nuclear factor ?B (NF ?B) in rats Methods Fourty five rats were divided into 3 groups The animals were subjected to 2 h middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) 3 days after 10 min IPC, IPC+OS and sham surgery (SS) respectively. After 22 h reperfusion, the rats were killed and the infarct volume, brain water content and NF ?B immunoreactivity were compared among 3 groups. Results Compared with IPC+ MCAO group, there were a furtber decrements in farct volume (93 75?13 40 vs 130 92?14 59, P

Estrogen receptor(ER),an important transcription factor belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily,comprises two subtypes ER?and ER?.Estrogen receptor is expressed in prostate cancer and ladder cancer and has a compacted relationship with them.In this review,we summarized the structure,distri- bution,function of different estrogen receptor subtypes and progress in study on relationship between different estrogen receptor subtypes and prostate or bladder cancer.

Objective To longitudinally analyze the unit costs and technical efficiency of the model of male circumcision in the different kinds of persons .Methods Unit costs were calculated by the person and period using longitudinal data from 3 kinds of persons ,and then technical efficiency and Malmquist indices were measured with an approach to data envelopment analysis . Results Theunit costs for changing the willingness to accept surgery changed dramatically ,decreasing from 7 166 .67 yuan(mean) to 737 .31 yuan ,while the costs for changing the ratio of the surgery increased from 666 .64 yuan (mean) to 744 .58 yuan ,and its technical efficiency was averaging between 0 .95-0 .96 .Conclusion The time series of unit costs for changing the willingness to ac-cept surgery dramatically dropped ,while changing the ratio of the surgery formed a U-shape curve with an inflection point before which unit costs dramatically dropped and another inflection point beyond which unit costs went up .These findings can inform pro-gram managers of the changing unit costs when extending or expanding the program .

The incidence rate of erectile dysfunction (ED) is reportedly as high as 30-90% after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer, which seriously affects the patients' quality of life. Penile rehabilitation is defined as the use of any drug or device at or after radical prostatectomy to maximize erectile function recovery. A variety of treatment options are available for post-prostatectomy ED patients, including oral phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors (PDE5I) , intracorporal injections, vacuum erection device, and penile prosthesis. This article presents an overview of the currently used methods for the drug treatment and penile rehabilitation of the ED patients after radical prostatectomy. It seems proper to recommend daily use of a vacuum erection device plus oral PDE5I in the early postoperative period. For those who fail to respond to this therapy, intraurethral alprostadil, intracorporal injections, or a penile prosthesis could be considered.

Objective To observe any changes in spinal cord hemodynamics after spinal cord injury and to investigate their mechanism. Methods Twenty female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into a control group and a moderate injury group,10 rats in each group.A rat model of spinal cord injury caused by moderate compression was established using Nystrom's method.Changes in the velocity and volume of blood flow and in the diameters of vessels of the spinal cord were monitored for 6 hours using laser speckle imaging. Results No changes in the velocity or volume of blood flow or in the diameter of vessels were observed in the control group,but all of these indices diminished significantly in the injury group. Conclusions Laser speckle imaging can be used to monitor changes in spinal cord hemodynamics.Such changes after acute spinal cord injury indicate progressive post-injury ischemia.The occlusion of veins may be an important contributor to post-injury ischemia.

We surveyed the graduate students at Peking University Health Science Center for the difficulties during their study. The result showed that the major difficulties were job pressure, completing studies and economic burden. Some students were also bothered by love affairs, health conditions and interpersonal relationship. Suggestions were made for future work to help these students to cope with such difficulties to complete their study smoothly.

Objective To introduce a better operation method to repair the skin and soft tissue defects in the forehead.Methods This kind of frontalis musculocutaneous flap was applied to repair the skin and soft tissue defects in the forehead in 8 cases.The flap was designed carefully according to the shape and the size of the focal lesion before the operation. The maximum area of the flap was 2.9cm?1.6cm, and the minimum area was 1.2cm?1cm. The full flap contained muscle in its proximal area and skin, muscle, and fascia in its distal one. A muscular pedicle with appropriate length was outlined on the paramedian and lateral forehead. The pedicle was composed of frontalis muscle fibers, the terminal part of the frontal branches of the superficial temporal artery, and some small branches from the supraorbital and the supratrocheal arteries. The body of the flap was designed into triangle shape. Full thickness skin was incised around the inverted pattern of the defect. The skin of the paramedian and lateral aspect was then undermined laterally. Superficial dissection was carried out in a subcutaneous layer. The flap was undermined beneath the galea and frontalis muscle just external to the skull. The muscle pedicle was prepared by incising a parallel horizontal incision. Careful attention should be taken so as not to injure the vascular pedicle. At that time, the supraorbital and supratrocheal arteries were carefully ligated to obtain complete hemostasis. Then the flap was advanced and transferred down to cover the wound in the forehead. The donor site could be sutured directedly by undermining the margins of the defect without much difficuties. Results All flaps in 8 cases survived. Venous congestion was observed in early postoperative period in only one case. But the flap survived completely after proper management in final healing. Follow-ups were made from 6 months and 12 months after operations. The color and texture of the flaps were similar to the adjacent skin in the forehead. The shapes were satisfying. Conclusions This kind of flap is a much better method for the repairing of some small or moderate defects in the forehead. It can be easily operated and allow a rapid aesthetic restoration.
