Objective To explore the entrapment to the deep branch of the ulnar nerve at the wrist,to assist the surgeon in diagnosis and treatment of Guyon canal syndrome.Methods Twenty fresh upper limbs were dissected on loupe(?5),to record the relationship between the ulnar nerve and the hypothenar muscles,the course of the ulnar nerve at the wrist.Results The deep branchs of the ulnar nerve go through an intermuscular space after runing out of the Guyon canal.The intermuscular space consisits of the superficial and deep head of the opponens digiti minimi and the hook of the hamate,which has one entrance and one exit.We named the intermuscular space as the hiatus of opponens digiti minimi,and named the proximal edge of the superficial head of the opponens digiti minimi as the fascial arch of the opponens digiti minimi.Conclusion We found that the fascial arch of the opponens digiti minimi can compress the deep branch of the ulnar nerve causing motor deficit of the intrinsic muscles of hands.

Objective To study the rehabilitative effect of velvet antler polypeptides-PLGA compound membrane on peripheral nerve injury.Methods Two doses(3 and 15 mg?g~(-1)) of velvet antler polypeptides-PLGA compound membrane(thickness 50 ?m) were used to wrap the sutures of severed sciatic nerves,which were compared with nerve sutures only.2,4 and 6 weeks post-operation,general morphological,electrophysiological,histological and electron microscopic observations and examinations were investigated.Results There were no ulcers in the nars and toes in the treatment group,light conglutination appeared in nerve anastomosis and around tissues.At 6th week post-operation,conglutination was alleviated obviously than 2 weeks post-operation;findings from latency inducing potentials of calf triceps dominated by sciatic nerves showed that recover ratios(%) in treatment group((2 weeks:)9.07?1.44,8.02?1.41;6 weeks: 49.87?9.69,50.11?6.11) were better than those in control group((2 weeks:)2.52?1.83;6 weeks:30.31?6.32) obviously in each time(P

Objective To investigate the anti-rejection effect of T cell vaccination combined with FK506 of heterogenic transplantation on rat nerve. Methods SD rats were vaccinated by the spleen cells of BABL/c mice; T cell vaccines were activated and vaccinated in the spleen cells of these SD rats. The SD rats of nerve transplantation recipient were vaccinated with T cells combined with FKS06. The mixture lymphocytes culture, microcytotoxicity assay, histological alteration of nerves, humid weights of tibial anterior muscle were observed to confirm the anti-rejection effect of T cell vaccination combined with FK506 treatment. Results The humid weights of tibial anterior muscle of the vaccinated rats combined with FKS06 treatment were statistically different from those in control group (P ＜ 0.05), and so as the index of rejection (e.g. lymphocytes transformation efficiency) (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion T cell vaccination combined with FK506 treatment can inhibit the rejection of heterogenic transplantation on rat peripheral nerve.

Peripheral nerve injuries, the worldwide difficult and complicated diseases, cause serious dysfunction but without ideal strategies to assist the successful treatment and recovery. The primary strategy to repair the peripheral nerve injuries is to bridge the lesions by promoting axon regeneration. The importance of mechanical factors in the nervous system has been appreciated only recently. It has been demonstrated that the application of external mechanical force is able to direct axonal outgrowth and to stimulate axonal elongation. For this purpose, to direct axonal growth cones in vivo with accurate force appears to be a challenge that must be resolved. Bionanotechnology is promising a new tool that offers the possibility to influence the process of axonal regeneration. The magnetic force generated by the interaction between Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and magnetic fields provides remote, non-invasive, accurate, and controllable lead and control of neuronal axon regeneration.

[Objective]To study the influence of VAP(velvet antler polypeptide)-chitosan-honey suspension on decubitus ulcer.[Method]Swines'pressure ulcers were used as decubitus ulcer model.Honey was used as solvent carrier.VAP and chitosan were put into the honey in different proportion.The suspension was applied to the ulcer once a day for seven days.The dressings were changed once every other day.The healing state of the ulcer was observed and the area of the ulcer was calculated.The changes of the ulcer histopathology were observed.[Result]In the group of the suspension proportion of the VAP to the chitosan was 4:1,the wounds had little effusion and the granulation tissues grew fast with the scars falling off early and Absolutely.Pathology results indicated that in the group of the suspension proportion of the VAP to chitosan was 4:1,none necrosis was found,the epithelization was apparent,and the inflammatory cells were fewer.There was no edema,but more newly born blood vessles.[Conclusion]The VAP-chitosan-honey suspension could apparently promote the healing of decubitus ulcer,but the possible mechanism needs to be further studied.
