BACKGROUND:Nanohydroxyapatite/colagen basal bone materials have a porous structure which is very close to natural bone. After implanting to the human body, it can be gradualy degraded and absorbed over time to play a strongly guiding and bridging role. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical effect of nanohydroxyapatite/colagen basal bone materials on lumbar posterolateral bone graft fusion. METHODS: Fifty-eight patients with lumbar disease, including 28 males and 30 females, aged 47to81 years were included and were performed lumbar laminectomyvia posterior midline approach, or simultaneously performed discectomy and lumbar posterolateral bone graft fusion between transverse process. The bone graft material was nanohydroxyapatite/colagen basal bone repair material. Pedicle screw system was used to make the internal fixation. Patients were folowed up for 18 months after treatment. Pain relief and bone graft fusion condition were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Fifty-eight patients had successfuly completed the treatment. The incisions healed by first intention. The clinical symptoms and signs were significantly improved compared with before treatment. The complications such as infection, screws shifting and loosening, spondylolisthesis and displacement of adjacent vertebral in fixed segments, and the adverse reactions associated with bone graft material were not occurred during the folow-up. At the 1st, 6th, 12th and 18th months after implanting nanohydroxyapatite/colagen basal bone materials, the visual analog scale scores of the lower limbs and waist were al lower than those before implantation (P < 0.05). At the 12thand 18th months of folow-up, the bone graft rates were 84% and 90%, respectively. These results demonstrate that the application of nanohydroxyapatite/colagen basal bone materials in the process of lumbar posterolateral bone graft fusion can ease the symptoms of lower limb pain and lower back pain, which is conducive to bone graft fusion.

BACKGROUND:Nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 composite has good material-cel interface and three-dimensional porous network structure, and it can also be gradualy degraded over time after implantation in the human body. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 in early repair of femoral head necrosis. METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 62 cases of early osteonecrosis of the femoral head, including 32 males and 30 females, aged 34-51 years. These patients were divided into control group (31 cases) and observation group (31 cases) according to treatment methods. Core decompression with nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 implantation and core decompression with bone graft were respectively performed in the observation and control groups. Incidence of pain in the two groups was compared at 1 day after treatmen; and during the 12-month folow-up, the Harris score of the hip function in the two groups was compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no significant difference in the visual analog scale scores between two groups at 1 day after treatment. The Harris scores in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at 3 and 12 months after treatment (P < 0.05). There was no adverse reaction in the two groups. These findings indicate that nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 material for repair of early femoral head necrosis has good biocompatibility, and can obtain good effects on limb function recovery.

BACKGROUND:Positive treatment of perioperative analgesia after total knee arthroplasty can accelerate recovery of joint function, reduce complications after replacement, and improve overal technical evaluation of total knee arthroplasty. <br> OBJECTIVE:To summarize commonly used analgesic drugs and analgesia method of total knee arthroplasty. <br> METHODS:A computer-based online research of Wanfang database and PubMed database was performed to col ect articles published between 1994 and 2014 with the keywords of“total knee replacement, epidural analgesia, peripheral nerve block, joint local analgesia, patient control ed analgesia, cold treatment”in Chinese and English. <br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were 986 articles after the initial survey. Final y, 55 articles were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. As the technology for total knee arthroplasty, early functional rehabilitation and replacement of pain control has been widely concerned, a large number of literatures about analgesic drugs and analgesic programs emerge. Analgesic drugs include opioids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, local anesthetics and N-methyl-aspartate receptor blockers. Analgesic program includes epidural analgesia, peripheral nerve blockage, joint local analgesia, patient-control ed analgesia and cold therapy. These analgesic drugs and methods have their advantages and disadvantages. At present, multimodal analgesia schemes have been recognized, but the optimal pain management scheme remains controversial. Increasing considerations should be paid on the choice of analgesic methods, depending on individual characteristics and existing technology.

The electrochemical behaviors of parathion(PT) on nano-Al2O3 film modified electrode(nano-Al2O3/GCE/CME) were investigated. It was found that the redox peak currents of PT remarkably increased and the oxidation peak potential negatively shifted at the nano-Al2O3/GCE/CME. All the experimental parameters were optimized and a simple and sensitive electroanalytical method was developed for the determination of PT. The oxidation peak current was linear with the concentration of PT over the range from 2.5×10-9 to 1.0×10-7 mol/L and 1.0×10-7 to 1.0×10-5 mol/L. A low detection limit of 1.0×10-9 mol/L was obtained for 30 s accumulation at open circuit(S/N=3). The relative standard deviation(n=10) was 3.8% for 1×10-5 mol/L PT. The proposed method was used for the quantitative analysis of PT in some vegetables and the results were satisfactory.

Objective To explore the IL-8 and ICAM-1 in premature infants with cerebral white matter damage (CWMD) and their correlations with prognosis. Methods One hundred and two cases of CWMD were selected from March 2009 to June 2012 as experimental group and 42 cases of normal preterm children were selected as control group. Serum IL-8 and ICAM-1 levels were measured during 48-72 h after birth. Motor development index (psychomotor developmental index, PDI) and mental development index (mental development index, MDI) were evaluated by Bayley scale. The correlations of IL-8 and ICAM-1 levels with prognosis were analyzed. Results Serum IL-8 and ICAM-1 levels in the experimental group were signiifcantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). MDI and PDI scores in the experimental group were signiifcantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were negative correlations of serum IL-8 and ICAM-1 levels with MDI (r=-0.64, P<0.05;r=-0.66, P<0.05)+and PDI (r=-0.70, P<0.05;r=-0.71, P<0.05). Conclusions Serum IL-8 and ICAM-1 levels in infants with CWMD are signiifcantly increased, and are negatively correlated with MDI and PDI scores.

Objective:To analyze the effect of simvastatin combined with tanshinone in the treatment of patients with acute cere-bral infarction. Methods:The patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into the treatment group (n=50) and the control group (n=50). The control group was given tanshinone treatment, the treatment group was given simvastatin treatment addi-tionally, and the treatment course was 14 d. The NIHSS ( nerve function defect degree) , ADL ( daily life activity) and the treatment effect before and after the treatment were comprehensively evaluated and compared between the two groups. Results: Compared with those before the treatment, the NIHSS and ADL scores were significantly improved in the two groups after the treatment, and the differ-ences were statistically significant (P<0. 05), and the improvement in the treatment group was significantly better than that in the control group with statistical significance (P<0. 05). The total effective rate of the observation group was 98%, which was higher than that (70%) in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion: Simvastatin combined with tanshinone in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction shows obvious therapeutic effect, which can obviously improve neurologic deficits and daily life activity, and is worthy of fur-ther clinical application.
