Objective:To determine the three-dimensional stability of atlantoaxial reconstruction with anterior approach screw fixation through C2 vertebral body to C1 lateral mass and Gallie’s technique for C1~2 instability.Methods:25 human cadaveric specimens were randomly divided into 5 groups.The three-dimensional range of motion C1 relatively C2 was measured under five different conditions,the intact state(intact group),odontoid tape Ⅱ fracture(group OTF),fixation with posterior C1~2 transar- ticular screw(group PTS),anterior approach screw fixation through C2 vertebral body to C1 lateral mass(group ASM),ASM and Gallie’s technique(group ASMG). The obtained data were statistically analyzed. Results:The range of motion in all directions group ASMG,ASM and PTS was significantly decreased.There was significant difference among group ASMG,ASM and PTS in flexion/extension and lateral bendings by statistical analysis(P0.05). Conclusion:In vivo biomechanics studies showed that ASMG had unique superiority in the reconstruction of the atlantoaxial stability,especially in controlling the instability of flexion/extension and lateral bendings.It was one kind of reli- able surgical choice for the treatment of the obsolete insta- bility or dislocation of C1~2 joint.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of transplantation of limbal epithelial cells and decellularized porcine cornea construct in rabbits with corneal alkali burn.Methods Allogeneic rabbit limbal epithelial cells were cultured and identified.Porcine cornea scaffold was fabricated by decellularization.The LECs-DPC construct was cultured and transplanted to the alkali-burned corneal surface of rabbits(4month follow-up).Results Immunocytochemistry and RT-PCR analyses revealed the presence of ABCG2 positive limbal stem cells.A general view showed the corneas were clear and vessel-free postoperatively.HE and Masson Trichrome staining results indicated the epithelial stratification,fewer cellular infiltration,DPC' integration into host corneal tissues,and more regular collagen configuration.Transmission electron microscopy exhibited formation of desmosomes and microvilli.Conclusion Allogeneic limbal epithelial cells transplantation using DPC as a carrier can restore corneal clarity after alkali burn in a rabbit model.

BACKGROUND:Internal fixation has been shown to decrease intertrochanteric fracture complications in the clinic and to improve quality of life of patients. The major method widely used in the clinic is the fixation of proximal femoral nail and dynamic hip screw. ＜br> OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effects of proximal femoral nail and dynamic hip screw in treatment of intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly. ＜br> METHODS:A total of 60 patients with intertrochanteric fracture were randomly divided into proximal femoral nail and dynamic hip screw groups (n=30), and they respectively received proximal femoral nail and dynamic hip screw fixation. ＜br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the dynamic hip screw group, operative time, blood loss, the incidence of complications one year after repair, fracture healing time and complications were lower in the proximal femoral nail group (P＜0.05). After repair, the excellent and good rate of Harris hip scores was higher (P＜0.05). No significant difference was detected in healing time of wound between the two groups (P>0.05). Results verified that compared with the dynamic hip screw fixation, the clinical effects of proximal femoral nail fixation were better, more safe and reliable in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly.

Hospital Administrative Moral Standard has effects of guide, encouragement, harmonization and rectification. Administration should reflect principles of respect, justice and benefit. It should connect unith the purpose and the way of setting up the hospital, with the aim of educating health staff. The institution of the standard should combine administrative power with its function. The nucleus is to rectify opinion, action, discipline and attitude of the health staff.

AIM :To investigate the impact of alendronate on bone resorption of normal and ovariectomized rats at the bone-screw interface through radiographic and histologic findings.METHODS :Thirty-two female Wister rats with a mean body weight of 332 g(287-351 g)were divided into four groups at random.Rats in group C and D were ovariectomized.8 weeks later,the proximal one-third of the left tibia of all rats were inserted into self-drilling mini cortical screws.After operations,alendronate were used in group A and C and saline were given in group B and D.The rats were euthanized at 5 weeks after screws having been attached.Radiographic and histologic findings subsequently were analyzed.RESULTS :Radiographs confirmed that no osteolytic area was present around screws immediately after insertion,whereas 5 weeks after insertion,a wide and low-density area corresponding to the screw hole was evident in the saline groups compared with the alendronate groups.On histologic observation,the width of the fiber membrane and the number of TRAP-positive cells were decreased in the alendronate groups than those in the saline groups,and the difference was statistically significant.CONCLUSION :Alendronate effectly inhibits bone resorption of either normal or ovariectomized rats at the bone-screw interface in rats.

The paper introduces microcosmic control model for medical morals construction.The function of the model includes explanation,operation and evaluation.The author holds that the key to the morals construction is scientific management,and the decision maker should have the social responsibility and the love-patient consciousness.
