Objective To evaluate the effect of selective angiography and embolization for the pa-tients with haemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture. Methods Sixty-two patients with haemodynami-cally unstable pelvic fracture were treated in our hospital from 2002 to 2008. Their pelvie fractures were classified on the basis of their X-ray and CT data. By AO classification, there were 2 cases of type A2, 6 B1, 9 B2, 8 B3, 16 C1, 13 C2, and 8 C. There were 6 cases of open injury (by Gustilo classification, 1 type Ⅱ and 5 type Ⅲ). Of the 46 eases of multiple injuries, 12 had shock. While active fluid infusion and vascular medication were conducted, the angiograph was done for all patients, 59 of whom also received embolization. Results Seventy-nine angiographs were performed for the 62 cases, and 12 of them received more than twice angiographa. Exams revealed that 32 patients had suffered injury to more than 2 arteries. The injured arteries were sequentially superior gluteal artery, iliolumbar artery, lateral sacra] artery, obturator artery, inferior gluteal artery, internal pudendal artery, internal iliae artery and external lilac artery. Of the 59 cases of embolization, 56 were successful. Seven patients died due to severe abdominal organ injury. Forty-five patients got an average follow-up of 14 months (range, 6 to 52 months) . No severe complications were no-ticed. Conclusions Selective angiography and embolization is an effective intervention for patients with haemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture. It is mandatory to conduct recurrent angiographic embolization for patients with multiple artery injuries or delayed artery injuries.

Objective To evaluate the effect of different degrees of pubic symphysis diastasis on the stress distribution of posterior pelvic ring. Methods Eight embalmed pelvis and articulated proximal 1/3 of the femurs were harvested for this study. The samples were positioned as both legs standing straight and loaded to 600 N on the on the CSS-44020 biomechanical machine. The strain gages were adhered to 38 sites distributed symmetrically on the two sides of sacroiliac joint, anterior sacrum and posterior ilium. The strain gages were connected to WS3811 digital strainometer to record strain changes of the intact pelvic ring and at 1,2, 2.5 cm of pubic symphysis diastasis. Results Elastic changes occurred in the cortical bone of the pelvis under 600 N load. The symmetrical sites had similar strain changes without significant difference in the intact pelvic ring and at 1,2, 2.5 cm of pubic symphysis diastasis ( P >0.05 ). The sites with more strain changes were distributed on the iliofemoral arch in the intact pelvis.The strain changes were increased significantly frona the posterolateral sites to the iliofemoral arch. But the strain changes on the iliofemoral arch were decreased significantly during pubic symphysis diastasis.Conclusion The conduction of vertical load runs along the sacrofemoral arch in the intact pelvic ring and redistributes posterolaterally during pubic symphysis diastasis.

OBJECTIVETo explore material bases and neurobiological mechanisms of "Shen storing will" by observing learning and memory capacities and N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor expressions in Shen deficiency constitution (SDC) rats.
METHODSTotally 40 SD rats were randomly divided into the model group, the Zuogui Pill (ZP) group, the Yougui Pill (YP) group, the blank control group (consisting of normal pregnant rats), 10 in each group. SDC young rat model (inherent deficiency and postnatal malnutrition) was prepared by the classic way of "cat scaring rat". Medication started when they were scared by cat. Rats in the ZP group and the YP group were administered by gastrogavage with ZP suspension 0.1875 g/mL and YP suspension 0.0938 g/mL respectively. Equal volume of normal saline was administered to rats in the blank control group and the model group by gastrogavage. All medication was given once per day, 5 days in a week for 2 consecutive months. Learning and memory capacities were detected by Morris water maze test. Expressions of NMDA receptor subunits NR2A and NR2B in hippocamus were detected by immunohistochemical method.
RESULTSCompared with the blank control group, the latency period, total distance in Morris water maze test were longer in the model group (P < 0.05). All the aforesaid indices all decreased in the ZP group and the YP group, with statistical difference when compared with the model group (P < 0.05). The protein expressions of NR2A and NR2B in hippocamus were lower in the model group than in the blank control group (P < 0.05). But when compared with the model group, they were obviously higher in the ZP group and the YP group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSSDC rats had degenerated learning and memory capacities and lowered NMDA receptor expressions. ZP and YP could up-regulate learning and memory capacities and NMDA receptor expressions, thereby improving deterioration of brain functions in SDC rats.
