OBJECTIVETo investigate the type and corresponding operation methods of ulnar lateral mass in distal radial fractures.
METHODSFrom January 2004 to September 2010,32 cases of distal radial fractures with ulnar lateral mass were treated by surgical incision and relocate ulnar lateral mass,including 23 males and 9 females with an average age of (34 +/- 9) years old ranging from 28 to 65 years old. According to the classification of Melone-Doi, 2 cases with type I, 24 cases of type II, 6 cases with type III. The operative appoach involved palm-radial, palm-ulnar, radial-dorsal. Among them, 28 patients with closed fractures were fixed with plate, 4 cases (including 2 cases of open fractures) were fixed by Kirschner pin and braces.
RESULTSThirty-two patients were followed up for 8 to 18 months with an average of 12 months. All fractures were healing without complications. According to modified Gartland-Werley scoring system (GWSS), the total score was 1.12 +/- 0.45, the remain deformity was 0, subjective evaluation was 0.50 +/- 0.30, objective evaluation was 0.30 +/- 0.21, complications was 0.40 +/- 0.09; the result was excellent in 21 cases, good in 11 cases.
CONCLUSIONThe location of ulnar lateral mass in distal radial fractures is one of the important prognostic factors in wrist function and surgical treatment is an effective method of fixing ulnar lateral mass in distal radial fractures.

Objective To investigate the best MR technique for detecting small epidermoids in the cerebellopontine angle.Methods 7 patients with pathologically-proved small epidermoids only located in the cerebellopontine angle were collected. The imaging techniques included:conventional T1WI and T2WI, fluid attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR),diffusion weighted imaging(DWI) and balanced fast field echo(B-FFE) .The findings were retrospectively analyzed.Results 6 of 7 cases of epidermoid tumours localized at the cerebellopontine angle and exhibited the similar signal intensity as the cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) on T1WI and T2WI.The remaining case was slightly isointense on either T1WI or T2WI.On FLAIR images in 6 cases,3 cases showed slightly hyperintensity, 1 case showed doubtful heterogeneous signal intensity and 2 cases did not reveal any abnormal signal intensity.3 cases were hyperintense differenting from CSF on DW images. All of seven cases showed heterogeneous signal characteristics and were quite different from CFS on B-FFE.Meanwhile B-FFE also produced clearly the tissue contrast of trigeminus embedded in epidermoids of the cerebellopontine angle.Conclusion B-FFE is much more useful for the early diagnosis of epidermoids in the cerebellopontine angle and it also can provide precise preoperative information about the trigeminus encasement.

The purpose of the study is to find the allergic reaction types and characteristics of Chinese medicine injection ( CMI). The authors monitored patients who used Shuxuetong injection, Dengzhan Xixin injection, Shenqi Fuzheng injection, Shenmai injection, Ciwujia injection, Shuxuening injection, Tanreqing injection, Reduning injection, a total of 150,000 cases were monitored. They used a nested case-control design to group the patients and obtained the serum samples from 14 allergic patients and 55 matched patients. They used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect serum C3, C4, IgE, IgG, MCT-P, and judge the allergic reaction types: Shuxuetong injection hypersensitivity (1 case), can not determine (1 case); Dengzhan Xixin injection hypersensitivity (1 case), hypersensitivity & anaphylactoid reaction (1 case), can not determine (1 case); Shenqi Fuzheng injection hypersensitivity (3 cases), can not determine (1 case); Shenmai injection anaphylactoid reaction (1 case); Ciwujia injection can not determine (1 case), Shuxuening injection can not determine (1 case), Tanreqing injection can not determine (1 case), Reduning injection can not determine (1 case). The results showed that the main type of allergic reaction of CMI was hypersensitivity, the type of allergic reaction was closely related to the varieties of CMI, the hypersensitivity and anaphylactoid reaction might occur in one patient at the same time which used Dengzhan Xixin injection.

On account of the dense cuticles of the fresh stem and the light, hard and pliable texture of the dried stem, Dendrobii Caulis is difficult to dry or pulverize. So, it is very important to the ancient doctors that Dendrobii Caulis should be properly treated and applied to keep or evoke its medicinal effects. The current textual research results about the preliminary processing, processing and usage methods of Dendrobii Caulis showed that: (1) In history the clinical use of fresh or processed Dendrobii Caulis as teas and tinctures were very common. (2) Its roots and rhizomes would be removed before using. (3) Some ancillary approaches were applied to shorten drying times, such as rinsing with boiling mulberry-ash soup, washing or soaking with liquor, mixing with rice pulp and then basking, etc. (4) According to the ancients knowledge, the sufficient pulverization, by means of slicing, rasping, hitting or pestling techniques, was necessary for Dendrobii Caulis to take its effects. (5) The heat processing methods for Dendrobii Caulis included stir-baking, stir-frying, steaming, decocting and stewing techniques, usually with liquor as an auxiliary material. Among above mentioned, steaming by pretreating with liquor was most commonly used, and this scheme was colorfully drawn in Bu Yi Lei Gong Pao Zhi Bian Lan (Ming Dynasty, 1591 CE) ; moreover, decocting in advance or long-time simmering so as to prepare paste products were recommended in the Qing Dynasty. (6) Some different processing programs involving stir-baking with grit, air-tightly baking with ondol (Kangs), fumigating with sulfur, which appeared in modern times and brought attractive outward appearance of the drug, went against ancients original intentions of ensuring drug efficacy.

OBJECTIVETo explore surgical treatment of gliomas involving the supplementary motor area (SMA) in the superior frontal gyrus.
METHODSClinical data and follow-up outcome of 16 patients with low graded astrocytomas involving the supplementary motor area were analyzed.
RESULTSSMA syndrome was developed in 6 patients in whom the posterior tumor resection line was at a distance of more than 1 cm from the precentral sulcus and resolved after 12 months. Hemiplegia occurred however in 8 patients in whom the resection line was less than 1 cm to precentral sulcus and only resolved in 3 patients during follow period 12 months.
CONCLUSIONSWhen the resection is performed at a distance of less than 1 cm from the precentral sulcus, surgery for gliomas of involving the supplementary motor area in the superior frontal gyrus may be result in permanent morbidity.

The aim of the present study was to explore the changes and roles of dystrophin and membrane permeability in hypoxic training. Seventy-two 8-week-old Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 4 groups, normoxic non-train (NC), normoxic train (NT), hypoxic non-train (HC), and hypoxic train (HT) groups. The rats of each group were randomly divided into three subgroups, non-exhaustive, low-speed exhaustive test and high-speed exhaustive test subgroups. Rats in hypoxia groups lived and were trained in a condition of 12.7% oxygen concentration (equal to the 4 300 m altitude). NT and HT groups received 4 weeks of training exercise. Then the rats in all non-exhaustive subgroups were sacrificed, and gastrocnemii were sampled for the measurements of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), succinatedehydrogenase (SDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH) activities. Moreover, serum LDH activity was analyzed. Low-speed exhaustive test and high-speed exhaustive test subgroups received exhaustive tests with 20 (71% VO2max) and 30 m/min speed (86% VO2max), respectively, and their exhaustive times were recorded. The results showed that, compared with normoxic groups, the weights in hypoxia groups exhibited slower increase. The level of dystrophin in HT group without exhaustion test didn't change significantly. The muscle MDH activities were markedly affected by the different oxygen concentration, training and their interaction (P < 0.05), whereas the muscle LDH activities were only affected by the different oxygen concentration (P < 0.05). Serum LDH activities were affected by the interaction of the different oxygen concentration and training (P < 0.05), showing decreased muscle LDH and increased blood LDH activities. The exhaustion time were markedly affected by the different test speed, training and their interaction (P < 0.05), and also affected by the interaction of the different oxygen concentration and training (P < 0.05), but didn't affected by oxygen concentration. The exhaustive time of HT high-speed exhaustive test subgroup was more than NT high-speed exhaustive test subgroup in 30 m/min exhaustion test. Compared with NT high-speed exhaustive test subgroup, HT high-speed exhaustive test subgroup had an earlier fatigue in the test, but had a rapid recovery. These results suggested that hypoxic training can effectively increase the rats' high-speed exhaustive time. The mechanism may be related to an increase in serum LDH caused by the increased membrane permeability after hypoxic training.
