Objective To evaluate the relationship between fragile fracture sites in hospitalized geriatric and nutritional status.Methods On the basis of whether the fracture,293 cases were divided into fracture group(n =140)and normal control group(n =153),51 males(36.4%)and 89 females(63.6%)in 140 fracture patients. Results The age was (74.04 ±8.58)years in the fracture group,that in the normal control group was (74.77 ± 8.14)years,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(t =-0.743,P >0.05).The femoral neck fracture was 51 cases(36.4%)and intertrochantetic fracture was 57 cases(40.7%),and other was 32 cases (22.8%).The patients were divided into the two groups according to the age:60 ~75 years group(n =62)and >75 years group(n =78),femoral neck fracture was 37.2%,and intertrochantetic fracture was 52.6% in the group that more than 75 years old,which were 35.5% and 25.8%,respectively in 60 ~75 years group,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =18.337,P <0.01).The hemoglobin,serum albumin weight,weight,BMI in the fracture group were (117.44 ±20.25)g/L,(34.96 ±4.95)g/L,(60.81 ±10.63)kg,(22.83 ±3.54)kg/m2 , and those in the normal control group were (136.99 ±17.10)g/L,(37.27 ±5.85 )g/L,(64.47 ±11.23)kg, (24.24 ±3.88)kg/m2 respectively.The commonly used nutritional indicators:hemoglobin(t =-8.908),serum albu-min(t =-3.619),weight(t =-2.837)and BMI(t =-3.218)were lower than the normal control group(all P <0.01 ),serum phosphate was lower than the normal control group,the difference was statistically singnificant (t =-2.047,P <0.05).The blood calcium(t =0.630)and ALP(t =-0.550)had no statistically singnificant differences between the two groups(all P >0.05).Conclusion The proportion of intertrochantetic fracture and femo-ral neck fracture were higher in hospitalized elderly patients,and malnutrition,such as lower hemoglobin,lower serum albumin,lower weight,and lower BMI were,important factors in the fragile fracture in the geriatric inpatients.

This study examined the effect of tanshinone II A (TSN II A) on the cardiac fibrosis induced by transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and the possible mechanisms. Cardiac fibroblasts were isolated from cardiac tissues of neonatal Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats by the trypsin digestion and differential adhesion method. The cells were treated with 5 ng/mL TGF-β1 alone or pretreated with TSN II A at different concentrations (10(-5) mol/L, 10(-4) mol/L). Immunocytochemistry was used for cell identification, RT-PCR for detection of the mRNA expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and collagen type I (COL I), Western blotting for detection of the protein expression of Smad7 and Smad3, and immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence staining for detection of the protein expression of phosphorylated Smad3 (p-Smad3), CTGF and COLI. The results showed that TGF-β1 induced the expression of CTGF, COL I, p-Smad3 and Smad7 in a time-dependent manner. The mRNA expression of CTGF and COL I was significantly increased 24 h after TGF-β1 stimulation (P<0.01 for all). The protein expression of p-Smad3 and Smad7 reached a peak 1 h after TGF-β1 stimulation, much higher than the baseline level (P<0.01 for all). Pretreatment with high concentration of TSN A resulted in a decrease in the expression of p-Smad3, CTGF and COL I (P<0.01). The protein expression of Smad7 was substantially upregulated after pretreatment with two concentrations of TSN II A as compared with that at 2 h post TGF-β1 stimulation (P<0.05 for low concentration of TSN I IA; P<0.01 for high concentration of TSN II A). It was concluded that TSN II A may exert an inhibitory effect on cardiac fibrosis by upregulating the expression of Smad7, suppressing the TGF-β1-induced phosphorylation of Smad3 and partially blocking the TGF-β1-Smads signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the efficacy of two treatment methods for thoracic tuberculosis.Methods According to the different surgical methods,61 patients with thoracic tuberculosis were randomly divided into A group (31 cases) and B group (30 cases).A group was treated with simple thoracic tuberculosis soft tissue lesions removed,and B group was treated with focus removal + rib resection + muscle flap packing.The operation time,pain time,extubation time,hospital stay,wound fluid,cure rate and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups.Results The operation time,pain time,hospital stay time of A group were shorter than those of B group [(35.0 ± 11.0)minvs.(50.0 ±9.5)min,(1.8±1.3)d vs.(4.2 ±2.4)d,(12.5 ±3.4)d vs.(18.8 ±5.7)d],the differences were statistically significant (t =6.257,4.275,5.334,all P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the extubation time,wound effusion,cure rate and recurrence rate between the two groups [(5.8 ± 3.1) d vs.(5.5 ± 2.8) d,2 cases vs.1 case,100.0％ vs.100.0％,6.4％ vs.3.3％,t =8.691,x2 =9.867,13.674,15.871,all P ＞ 0.05].Conclusion Analysis of the specific situation should be individualized on the chest wall tuberculosis,in the case of rib destruction,the focus should be removed + rib resection + muscle flap packing,if there is no rib destruction,simple chest wall tuberculosis soft tissue lesions removal is more safe,because it is less traumatic for patients.

Objective To access the efficacy of the arterial based complexity (ABC) scoring system in predicting complexity of LPN.Methods A total of 70 patients underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy from January 2013 to November 2015 were enrolled in the retrospective analysis.Among those patients,53 (75.7％) were males and 17 (24.3％) were females.Their mean age was 52 years,ranged from 44 to 61 years.The average BMI was 28 kg/m2,ranged from 25 to 32 kg/m2.Before operation,the average creatinine was 70.5 μmol/L,ranged from 60.5 to 81.0 μmol/L.43 patients accepted the procedure via retro-peritoneal approach and 27 patients accepted the procedure via peritoneal approach.38 tumor located in the left kidney and 32 tumor located in the right kidney.By using ABC scoring system,four readers independently scored contrast-enhanced computed tomography images of 70 patients who underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.Interobserver variability was assessed with kappa values and percentage of exact matches between each pairwise combination of readers.Logistics regression was used to evaluate the association between reference scores and ischemia time,estimated blood loss,operation time.Results The operative duration ranged from 100 to 180 min,mean 147 min.The mean ischemic time ranged from 15 to 37 min,mean 24 min.The average blood loss was 210 ml (ranging 50-380 ml).The mean hospitalization was 16 days (ranging 11-21 days).The urine leakage was noticed in 2 patients after the operation.The size of tumor ranged from 1.8 to 3.0 cm,mean 2.5 cm.The pathological classification included renal cell carcinoma in 65 cases,renal cell carcinoma with cystic changing in 2 cases,renal chromophobe cell carcinoma in 2 cases,right renal solitary fibroma in 1 case.Based on the ABC scorirng system,15 cases were in 1 degree,29 cases were in 2 degree,17 cases were in 3S degree and 9 cases were in 3H degree.Pairwise comparisons of readers' score assignments were significantly correlated;average kappa =0.492,across all reader pairs.The average proportion of exact matches was 65％,the average proportion that differ between a level or less than a level was 98.6％.Logistics regression between the complexity score system and surgical outcomes showed significant associations between reference category assignments and warm ischemia time and estimated blood loss (P ＜ 0.05),but showed no significant associations with operation time (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The ABC scoring system for LPN demonstrated good correlation with perioperative morbidity.This system is a novel anatomy-reproducible tool developed to help patients and doctors understand the complexity of renal masses and predict the outcomes of kidney surgery.

BACKGROUND:Intramedul ary nail fixation has more advantages in open fractures compared with the locking compression plate, such as the dual functions of lock and compression, highly protecting the blood supply in fracture end, less tissue trauma, firm elastic fixation and low infection rate. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical efficacy and biomechanical properties of tibial intramedul ary nail and locking compression plate in treatment of open tibial fractures by stages. METHODS:Total y 100 patients with open tibial fractures who received treatment at the Department of Orthopedics, Jiaozhou Central Hospital of Qingdao Affiliated to Weifang Medical Col ege from January 2012 to January 2014 were enrol ed. Patients were divided into tibial intramedul ary nail group (n=57) and locking compression plate group (n=43) according to the surgical procedures using randomized control ed method. Ten corpses models of open tibial fractures provided by Jiaozhou Central Hospital of Qingdao Affiliated to Weifang Medical Col ege were selected, and then randomly divided into 2 groups. Three-point bending test, axial compression test and torsional strength test were conducted after the fixation with tibial intramedul ary nail and locking compression plate. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The operative time and per-operative blood loss of patients in the tibial intramedul ary nail group was significantly less than those in the locking compression plate group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in wound infection, fixtures loosening, not healing and other complications after fixation between these two groups. There were no incision infection in these two groups. The specimens bending test offset, axial compression experiments offset and torsion test torsion angle in tibial intramedul ary nail group were significantly less than those in the locking compression plate group (P<0.05). These results demonstrate that tibial intramedul ary nail and locking compression plate for treatment of open tibial fractures by stages can achieve the desired therapeutic effect, however, the biomechanics of tibial intramedul ary nail is more stable, and more in line with the biomechanical properties of human body, with the advantages of firm fixation, doing exercises in early stage and smal stress shielding. Choosing the appropriate materials according to patient’s symptoms and fracture location during treatment can improve the curative effect.
