BACKGROUND: Fixation of bone fracture is one of the fundamental methods for bone fracture healing. The technique of AO has a lot of defects, such as negative effect induced by "stress dodging". Recently, the technique of CO is praised highly by national and international scholars. OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of external fixation of small splint on healing of long bone fracture of rabbit, and compare to the internal fixation of steel plate.DESIGN: Randomized and controlled animal trial. SETTING: Research Institute of Orthopedics, Hubei College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed at the Laboratory of Orthopedics, Hubei College of Traditional Chinese Medicine from April 2006 to April 2007. Thirty rabbits were randomly divided into small splint fixation group and steel plate fixation group with 15 rabbits in each group. Small splint was self-made of fir-barks with good elasticity, and composed of exterior, interior, front and back splints. The upper part of the splint was wide and the lower part was narrow. We sting an eyelet in the small splint that is used in front and behind part. A hole was drilled in the front and back splints close to the tubercle of tibia. Steel plate was provided by Jiangsu Golden Deer Group (Type HA2.0). METHODS: The standard models of transverse fracture of 3 mm in the meta-infer 1/3 of left tibia were established. In small splint fixation group (SSF group), the fracture was fixed by plaster stone, and 5 days later, replaced by external fixation of small splint. The steel fixation group (SF group) was fixed by steel plate with 4 holes. Animals were executed 14, 24, and 34 days after surgery, respectively. The growth condition of bony callus in fracture sites was observed, and the histomorphology of bony callus and bone cell production during fracture healing was observed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Macroscopic observation of rabbit tibial bony callus, and histomorphology of bony callus and bone cell formation. RESULTS: In SSF group, the bony callus formed early, and there were plentiful and active osteoblast. Thirty-four days after surgery, bony union was observed in fracture sites. In SF group, there was little fibrous bony callus in the fracture ends 14 days after surgery, accompanied by granulation tissue. Twenty-four days after surgery, sparing cartilage synostosis was observed. On day 34 days, bony callus span the fracture ends, but fracture ends did not connect completely yet. Compared with the SF group, the quantity of bony callus and the speed of fracture healing were superior in SSF group. CONCLUSION: The external fixation of small splint can promote osteoblastic differentiation and proliferation, absorption of hematoma, calcification of the bony callus, and the growth and rebuilding of bone trabecula.
3.Changes of protein kinase C ? in renal tissue of diabetic rats
Chinese Journal of Nephrology 1994;0(04):-
Objective To study the expression and transcription of PKC? in renal tissue of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Methods Hyperglycemia was induced with streptozotocin(55 mg/kg) in Sprague-Dawley rats. After 5 weeks, the expression of PKC? protein and mRNA was measured by immunohistochemistry, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis. Results In diabetic animals, the expression of PKC? was greatly enhanced especially in the proximal tubules and the glomeruler mesangial areas with upregulating of the membrane-associated PKC?. RT-PCR analysis showed that mRNA level of PKC? increased by 1.67 folds in diabetic rats as compared with the normal ones. Conclusion The expression of PKC? protein and mRNA is upregulated in early diabetic nephropathy, which suggests an interaction between PKC? and the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To explore the feasibility of minimally invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy (M IVAT). Methods Clinical data of 8 consecutive patients with ben ign thyroid nodules treated by MIVAT in this hospital from September 2002 to Sep tember 2004 were retrospectively reviewed. Results All the pro cedures were successfully completed. The operative time was 90~150 min (mean, 12 0 min), and the hemorrhage volume, 10~30 ml (mean, 20 ml). No complications happ ened and no conversions to open surgery were needed. All the patients were compl etely recovered and discharged from hospital 3~4 days after the surgery. Follow- up checkups for 6~12 months (mean, 9 months) in the 8 patients found normally he aled wounds and no paraesthesia. Conclusions MIVAT is safe and effective, with excellent cosmetic outcomes.

Objective To investigate the role of mitochondrial KATP channel in the mechanism of the protective effect of ischemic preconditioning (IP) against ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury.Methods Forty-eight Wistar rats of both sexs weighing 250-350 g were used in this study. Forty rats were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 8 each): group A I/R; group B IP+ I/R; group C diazoxide (DZ mito-KATP channel activator) + I/R; group D 5-HD (mito-KATP channel blocker) + IP + I/R and group E 5-HD + DZ + I/R. Another 8 animals were used for electron microscopic examination of normal mitochondria as control. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital 30 mg?kg-1. The hearts were immediately excised and passively perfused in a Langendorff apparatus with K-H solution at 5.8 kPa perfusion pressure and 36.5-37.5℃ via aortic cannulation. A fluid-filled latex balloon was via left atrium in left ventricle for the measurement of left ventricular function. I/R was induced after 30 min stabilization by clamping aortic cannula for 40 min followed by 30 min reperfusion. In group B and D the isolated hearts underwent 2 episodes of 5 min ischemia followed by 5 min reperfusion before I/R. In group C and E DZ 50 ?mol?L-1 was infused for 10 min and in group D and E 5-HD 100 ?mol?L-1 was infused for 10 min before I/R. HR, LVSP, LVEDP and coronary flow (CF) were measured at the end of stabilization (T0 , baseline), immediately before I/R (T1 ) and at 10, 20 and 30 min of reperfusion (T2.3.4.), and left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP= LVSP- LVEDP) was calculated. Myocardial tissue was obtained at the end of 30 min reperfusion for electron microscopic examination of mitochondria. Mitochondrial ultrastructure was assessed by Flameng scoring system (0 = normal, 4 = severely damaged) .Results Ischemic and DZ preconditioning significantly increased LVDP and decreased LVEDP and Flameng score. 5-HD pretreatment partly antagonized the protective effect of IP and completely antagonized that of DZ against I/R injury. Conclusion Ischemic preconditioning protects the heart against I/R injury mainly by activating mitochondrial KATP channel.
