Objective To investigate whether the bone harvested from Cloward discectomy with trephine could substitute for iliac-crest bone grafts in arthrodesis procedure. Methods We reviewed the 30 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy involving a single level, which had been managed with anterior trephination discectomy and arthrodesis by the bone chips harvested from within the trephine. The bone chips harvested with trephine were then trimed and implanted erectedly similar to Robinson arthrodesis procedure. All cases had been followed-up for an average of 4.75 years. The latest results were analyzed according to JOA score system and recovery rate. The fusion outcome were assessed by anteroposterior and flexion and extension lateral radiographs of the cervical spine. Results At the latest followed-up examination, clinical results were excellent in fifteen patients(50％ ), good in eleven(36.7％ ), fair in three(10％ ) and poor in one (3.3％ ). X-ray showed solid fusion in all, and no dislodgment of the grafts. However, the cervical curves had a little loss. There was no significant bone grafts subsidence. Conclusion In cervical anterior decompression the bone chips obtained in trephination could substitute for other type of bone grafts for arthrodesis. The postoperative outcomes were not affected by the loss of the cervical curves.

To investigate the changes in the activated T-lymphocyte CD3/HLA-DR and CD3/CD(16+56) populations in peripheral blood of the patients with allogeneic hand transplantation, lymphocytes from peripheral blood of the patients at different time points were immunologically labeled with dual color fluoresecent monoclonal antibodies CD3/CD(16+56) and CD3/HLA-DR, mono-color fluoresecent monoclonal antibody CD25. CD25, CD3/CD(16+56), and CD3/HLA-DR were determined with flow cytometry (FCM). The levels of activated T-lymphocyte (CD25 +,CD3 +/HLA-DR + ), silent T-lymphocyte [CD3 +/CD(16+56) -,CD3 +/HLA-DA - ] decreased significantly during the first week after transplantation and then increased gradually to the pre-operafive level. Nature killer cells [CD3 -/CD(16+56) +] increased significantly at the first day after transplantation, then decreased sharply and maintained a lower level. The results suggest that immunosuppressive agents have significantly effects on lymphocyte subsets in allogenaic hand transplanted patients, and dynamic determination of HLA-DR, CD3 /CD(16+56) could be valuable in immunomonitoring after allogeneichand transplantation.

Objective To evaluate the surgical techniques of open reduction and internal fixation and its clinical results of trimalleolar fractures retrospectively. Methods Between March 1996 and October 2002, 48 consecutive patients, including 27 males and 21 females with an average age of 42.8 years, were treated for trimalleolar fractures. According to the system of Lauge-Hansen, the fractures were classified as pronation-external rotation(grade Ⅳ) injury in 20 cases, and supination-external rotation(grade Ⅳ) in 28 cases. The time from injury to operation was from 2 hours to 21 days. The operation was delayed due to associated injury, skin conditions and so on, and then the patients were manipulated primarily and immobilized with a posterior plaster splint. The medial, lateral and posterior malleolus were exposed by anteromedial and Gatellier-Chastang approaches. The reduction and internal fixation started with the posterior, then the medial and the lateral malleolus and distal tibiofibular syndesmosis in sequence. The ankles were immobilized with plaster in neutral position and elevated. All patients were assessed with Baird and Jackson ankle scoring system based on pain, instability, walking ability, movement and radiological manifestations. Results The follow-up period varied from 6 to 36 months with an average of 13 months. The rates of clinical result were excellent in 26, good in 15, fair in 5 and poor in 2 respectively. The total rate of good to excellent results was 85.4%. There were no local complication, malunion and nonunion of the fractures and the deformity of the ankle. However, the inserted screw to distal tibiofibular syndesmosis was broken in one case. Conclusion Trimalleolar fractures require open reduction and internal fixation more often, especially while the fragment of posterior malleous is so large that it should be anatomically reduced and immobilized with internal fixation. It can ensure anatomical joint restoration and union for the ankle trimalleolar fractures, only by achieving most satisfied kinematics of the ankle joint.

With the progress and development of the DNA test and imaging technique, and the evolu-tion of evidence rule which bring the discussions about whether the individual identification using imag-ing data is outdated, and other disputes such as whether radiologic evidence could be suitable for con-temporary evidence and be used to solve the posture difference of imaging test. This article summaries the domestic and foreign researches of individual identification using imaging data in the past 20 years and reviews the problems above.

Thirty cases were treated. Of them, 2 were basically cure, 8 remitted, 14 remarkably ameliorated, 6 cases ineffective, the total effective rate being 80%. Changes in signs and symptoms revealed that the rate of amelioration was over 75%. After the therapy, the values of CD3, CD4, and CD4/CD8 were all markedly increased, CD8 markedly lowered with significant statistic differece (P

Objective To test whether sodium arsenite can induce in vitro reverse mutation of Salmonella typhimurium histamine-auxotroph mutant. Methods Ames test was carded out with Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97,TA98,TA100 and TA102 by standard method with or without the liver microsomal enzyme activation system (+S9,-S9). Results At concentrations of sodium arsenite from 500.00 to 5000.00 μg/plate, no colonies were seen on the plates of TA97,TA98,TA100 or TA102, with or without the presence of S9. At concentrations of sodium arsenite of 0.01,0.10,10.00 μg/plate and with the presence of S9, twice as many colonies grew on the plates of TA102 as the negative control(P<0.05). Without S9 activation,twice as many colonies grew on the plates of TA100 as the negative control(P<0.05)at concentrations of sodium arsenite of 1.00,10.00 μg/plate(P<0.05). The reverse mutation colonies induced by sodium arsenite in TA98 strain were twice as many as negative control group at concentrations of 0.01,0.10 μg/plate(P<0.05). There was no obvious increase of the strain clones in the other(P0.05). Conclusions With and without S9 activation, the doses of 500.00,5000.00 μg/plate sodium arsenite resulted in a toxic effect and a reduction of the revertants among the strain. At concentrations of 0.01～10.00 μg/plate, sodium arsenite exhibited mutngenesis effects.

BACKGROUND: There are a lot of immunologic studies about limb allotransplantation in animal experiment. But, it is only early investigation in clinic; its clinical immunologic study needs further accumulation.OBJECTIVE: To dynamically analyze the early immunologic state change in patients following hand allotransplantation.DESIGN: Controlled trial.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Guangzhou General Hospital,Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA; Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics and Department of Laboratory Medicine, Nanfang Hospital, First Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Two patients who underwent unilateral hand allotransplantation in the Department of Orthopaedics, Guangzhou General Hospital,Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA were enrolled, serving as experimental group. The observation was between September 1999 and March 2000. Twenty persons, including 12 male and 8 female, who homochronously received health examination, aged 20 to 45 years, were enrolled, serving as healthy control group. They all had no reactive immune and infectious diseases, and voluntarily participated in the trial.METHODS: Peripheral blood was collected from 2 patients who underwent hand allotransplantation once respectively at pre-operative 1 day and 3 days. Blood collecting was performed once per day at post-operative 1 week, three times per week at post-operative 2 to 4 weeks, twice per week at 5 to 8 weeks post-operation, once per week at 9 to 16 weeks post-operation, twice per month at 5 to 6 months post-operation. ① Peripheral blood T cell subgroups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cells)were detected by flow cytometer,serum panel reactive antibody (PRA) by ELISA method, serum C-reactive protein by turbidimetric immanoassay (TIA), serum creatine kinase (CK) by enzyme dynamics method. ②Mixed lymphocyte reaction(MLR): mitomycin C-treated donor peripheral blood lymphocytes were used as stimulator, and proliferative reaction of peripheral blood lymphocyte of patients to donor transplanted antigen was detected with the incorporation of 3H-TDR method (Negative: There was no significant difference between the mean value of stimulation index and 1, conversely positive). Autogenic peripheral blood lymphocytes treated with the same way replaced donor stimulator, serving as control. Stimulation index of each specimen was calculated (Stimulation index=Experiment cmp/controlcpm), serving as control index. Peripheral blood T-cell subgroups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell), serum PRA, C-reactive protein and CK were detected in 20 persons in healthy control group;Twenty persons were randomly divided into 10 groups. Two persons in each group were used as donor and recipient mutually and performed MLR.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Peripheral blood T cell subgrpups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell). ②PRA. ③ C-reactive protein. ④CK. ⑤MLR.RESULTS: ①CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell levels were obviously decreased within one week after operation. CD3+ and CD4+T cell levels both recovered to be the pre-operative levels, but CD8+ level exceeded pre-operative level significantly [CD3+: (66.43±4.56); CD4+: (30.55±3.94); CD8 +:(33.45 ±2.69)]. There was no significant difference between experiment group and control group. ②Serum PRA was 0 to 10%, there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ③ Serum C-reactive protein was 0 to 0.359 mg/L, there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ④ Serum CK was 25 to 170 mmol/L, and there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ⑤ MLR after transplantation was negative, and it turned into be positive 5 months later.They were all positive in control group.CONCLUSION: Short-term change and long-term redistribution of T cell subgroups are closely related to immunosuppressive agent, suggesting that immunosuppressive agent has obvious effect on T-cell subgroup following hand allotransplantation. Immuno-induction schedule make patients be in immune suppression state, which effectively avoid early rejection. But patients cannot bear specificity yet; they need the inhibition of immunosuppressive agents.

AIM: To investigate the anti - tumor effect of Weimaining (WMN) on a murine Lewis lung carcinoma (3LL) and the influence on the cell cycle. METHODS: The inhibitory rate of WMN in 3LL growth was detected by replicating the model of 3LL. The effect of the drug on 3LL cell cycle and the influence of the drug on the expression of cy clin D1 protein were investigated by flow cytometry and immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS: The results showed that the inhibitory rate of drug in 3LL is 19. 14%, 33.59%, 40. 63% and 51.56% respectively at dosage ranging from 100,cells in G0 -G1 phase and decreases the expression of cyclin D1 protein. CONCLUSION: WMN inhibits the growth of 3LL cells in vivo by decreasing the expression of cyclin D1, blocking the cells in G0 - G1 phase and preventing the cells transition from G1 to S phase while DNA is replicated.
