Objective To observe and analyze the effect of dexamethasone on the adult osteoblast proliferation and differentiation in vitro. Methods Iliac trabecular bone specimens were obtained from eight adult patients undergoing scheduled surgery. After the bone pieces were treated with collagenase trypsin, larage numbers of osteoblasts were released out. Then the osteoblasts were purified and their passages were fed with DMED-F12 and fetal bovine serum. The cells were incubated under the condition of 37 ℃, 95% relative humidity and 5% CO2. Subsequently, 1?10-8 mol/L dexamethasone were added into culture medium to feed eight groups of osteoblasts for three days and the control groups were cultured not to add medicine at the same time. All the groups were observed continually under light microscope and transmission electron microscope. Finally, apoptosis detection was performed by use of the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and biochemical indexes alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN), were assayed to check if dexamethasone has any effect on proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts in vitro. Results Of the adult osteoblasts obtained by collagenase trypsin method, the survival condition was good, the biochemical indexes were stable, the degree of purification was excellent, and they were fit for the next step study. The following data demonstrated that under the condition of dexamethasone 1?10-8 mol/L and osteoblasts 10 000 /ml, there were significant increase of ALP and OCN secretion without apoptosis alteration. Conclusion Dexamethasone has significant promoting effect on proliferation and differentiation of adult osteoblasts in vitro without apoptosis alteration and could be used as positive control during screening research of osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate indications,technique,prognosis and complications of anterior flap hemipelvectomy (hemipelvectomy using a quadriceps femoris muscle flap with superficial femoral artery)in the treatment of pelvic tumors.Methods From April 2009 to October 2010,10 patients with pelvic tumors underwent anterior flap hemipelvectomy in our department.There were 9 males and 1 female,aged from 30 to 62 years (average,46 years).There were 7 cases of chondrosarcoma,1 case of epithelioid sarcoma,1 case of pleomorphic liposarcoma and 1 case of spindle cell sarcoma.Results Nine patients were followed up for 12 to 30 months (average,21.5 months).Superficial skin necrosis occurred in 1 patient,while there was no wound infection.Local recurrence (33.3％) occurred in 3 patients,including 2 cases of chondrosarcoma and 1 case of epithelioid sarcoma.Three patients died at last,including 2 patients with local recurrence and 1 with pulmonary metastasis from liposarcoma.Two patients survived with pulmonary metastasis,and remaining 3 patients survived without recurrence and metastasis.Conclusion Anterior flap hemipelvectomy is indicated for:(1) patients with extensive soft tissue sarcoma in the buttock,and the tumor or reaction zone involve the subcutaneous tissue; (2) patients with recurrent pelvic tumors,and the conventional posterior flap can't be used due to contamination by the original incision; (3) patients whose posterior flap has poor blood supply due to radiotherapy or other factors.The prerequisite of the surgery is that the blood stream between external iliac artery and femoral artery is unobstructed; moreover the blood vessels are not in the tumor reaction zone.Compared with conventional posterior flap,the anterior flap hemipelvectomy is an easier procedure,which not only can easily cover surgical defect and obtain better surgical margin,but also has less complications.

Objective To test the reliability and validity of ICF Core Sets for Chinese COPD patients.Methods Fifty-two COPD patients were measured with ICF Core Sets for COPD patients and SF-36. For reliability test, the internal consistency was analyzed and expressed by Cronbach α coefficients and split-half reliability. For va-lidity test, the content validity and criterion validity were analyzed and expressed with Spearman rank correlation coef-ficients. Results For body function, body structure and activity and participation, there were good internal consis-tency (Cronbach α coefficients 0. 698～0.957). For environmental factors Crnnbach α coefficient and split-half reli-ability did not exist. Most items of body function, activity and participation and body structure possessed good content validity. There was concurrent validity for ICF components of body function, body structure and activity and participa-tion with SF-36, FEV1/FVC, COPD grade and health self-assessment. The environmental factors demonstrated poor reliability and validity. Conclusion The ICF Core Sets for COPD patients showed good reliability and validity. It is a good comprehensive functional measurement scale for COPD patients, but it is necessary to test the generality of this result, and some items need to be adjusted.
