[Objective]To treat the femoral neck fracture using cannulated screw and BMP release system in animals,and to evaluate the possibility of treating femoral neck fracture and provide experimental basis for clinical application.[Method]Eighteen mongeral were used in this study.The model of bilateral femoral neck dislocation fracture was established.The control side was fixed using cannulated screw,and the experiment side was fixed with cannulated screw and injectable BMP release system.At 4,8,12 weeks,6 animals were sacrificed at one time point respectively.Results were obtained through histology,radiography,scintimetry and gross observation.[Result]The fracture line was vague at four weeks,and at eight weeks the fracture line almost disappeared.It was healed completely at twelve weeks.Radiological study showed that the healing of the fracture in experimental side was better than that of the control side.There was the same result of observation in histology.[Conclusion]The cannulated screw combined with BMP used in the experiment is effective and feasible.It may not only provide strong internal fixation but also infuse growth factor into site of fracture.It would accelerate the reconstructing of the vascular supply to the femoral head after the fracture and promote the restoration of bone.

AIM: To observe the effect of compound anisodine injection combined with yi-qi-tong-luo acupuncture, hot compress and massage for blepharospasm.
METHODS: Selected in our hospital, 60 cases (78 eyes) with blepharospasm were randomly divided into two groups, 30 cases 39 eyes in each group. The observation group were treated with compound anisodine injection combined with yi - qi - tong - luo acupuncture treatment, and supplemented by hot compress and massage, while the control group only with compound anisodine injection. We compared the treatment effect of the two groups.
RESULTS: In the observation group, 38 eyes were clinically effective, 1 eye was invalid, 35 eyes marked, the total effective rate was 97%, the markedly effective rate was 90%; in control group, 32 eyes were the clinically effective, 7 eyes invalid, 23 eyes marked, the total effective rate was 82%, the markedly effective rate was 59%; the total effective rate and markedly effective rate of observation group were higher than those of the control group with statistical difference (P<0. 05). The recurrence rates of the two groups were 5% and 34%, respectively, and the recurrence rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P <0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The compound anisodine injection combined with yi - qi - tong - luo acupuncture, hot compress and massage for blepharospasm, can significantly improve the efficiency of treatment, with higher effective rate and lower recurrence rate, compared with using compound anisodine alone.

Objective To investigate the normal anatomy and variation of Willis circle by 64-slice volume CT digital subtraction angiography(VCTDSA).Methods VCTDSA data of 174 patients with cephalocervical and cephalic scanning in our hospital from February 2006 to September 2008 were analyzed.Developmental condition,shape,size,integrity,and perforating branches of Willis circle were observed.Results(1) Hypoplasia was displayed in any component vessels of Willis circle.Incidence rate of hypoplasia was 20.1% in left posterior communicating artery,16.1% in right posterior communicating artery,13.8% in right anterior cerebral artery A1,9.2% in right posterior cerebral artery P1,7.3% in anterior communicating artery,6.3% in left posterior cerebral artery P1,and 3.4% in left anterior cerebral artery A1.Congenital arterial absence occurred more frequently in right posterior communicating artery(54.6%),left posterior communicating artery(52.3%),and anterior communicating artery(15.8%).(2) Hypoplasia or congenital absence of posterior circulation and anterior-posterior circulation occurred with a rate of 55.8% and 29.8% respectively.Integrity of Willis circle was only 9.2%.There were 17 perforating branches and 26 heubner inversion arteries observed in 174 Willis circle,with an average diameter of 0.82 mm and 0.94 mm respectively.Conclusion VCTDSA can display Willis circle completely and clearly.Using three-dimensional rotation may detect all kinds of variation and perforating branches of Willis circle.

Objective To investigate four methods for establishing animal models of human breast cancer bone metastasis. Methods Thirty-two female nude mice aged 4-6 weeks were divided randomly into four groups (n=8 in each group). 5×105 MDA-MB-231 cells were injected into the body via the left second mammary fat pads (group A), the tail veins (group B), the left heart ventricles (group C) and the left tibia marrow cavities (group D), respectively. Tumor formations in situ were recorded in group A. Deaths after the injection were recorded. The surviving nude mice 49 days after the injection were subjected to pathological examination to determine bone metastasis. Results The rate of tumor formation in situ of group A was87.5 %(7/8). One mouse in group C died after the injection of MDA-MB-231 cells. The bone metastasis rate in groups A, B, C and D was zero (0/8), 12.5 % (1/8), 71.4 % (5/7) and 100 % (8/8), respectively. There was statistically significant difference in the bone metastasis rate between group A and group C, group A and group D, group B and group C; and group B and group D. Conclusion Injections of tumor cells via the breast fat pads and tail veins were not suitablemethods to establish animal models of human breast cancer bone metastasis. The bone metastasis model could be established efficiently by injecting tumor cells into the left heart ventricles or the bone marrow cavity of nude mice.

BACKGROUND: Defatting is to reduce the special cell surface antigens by clearing fat and lipoprotein, so as to decrease immunological rejection, improve the biocompatibility of allograft bone, and increase osteogenic potential. However, the effect of defatting on biomechanical performance of bone remains controversial.OBJECTIVE: To explore the influence of defatting on the biomechanics of bovine cortical bone samples.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Randomized, self-controlled observation was performed in Futian People's Hospital of Guangdong Medical College between 2006 and 2008.MATERIALS: Eight pairs of healthy adult bovine femora were used. Bone blocks, 50 mm long and 10 mm wide, were selected from each pair of femora, and burnished into 24 pairs of 7 mm×7 mm×40 mm rectangular bovine cortical bone samples.METHODS: The 24 pairs of cortical bone samples were randomly divided into two groups (n=12). One of each pair was selected as test group sample, and the other as control group sample. The samples of test group were defatted In 500 mL chloroform and methanol mixture (1:1) for 24 hours, while control samples were immerged in deionized water for 24 hours. Six samples from each group were selected for axial compressive test and three-point bending test.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Load and deflection of every sample.RESULTS: Axial compressive test showed that the maximum load and the maximum strain of defatted samples were significantly decreased compared with control group, but the fragility and elastic modulus were increased (P < 0.05). In three-point bending test, the maximum load and the maximum stress of defatted sampled were significantly decreased, the maximum deflection was decreased, and the elastic modulus was increased (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: The mechanical strength of cortical bone decreased but the fragility increased after defatting.

Objective To detect the mRNA and protein expression of downstream quinine nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) induced by blood nuclearrelated factor E2 (Nrf2) in the peripheral blood of those exposed to arsenic in the endemic area of coal arsenic poisoning in Guizhou Province,and to discuss its role in the process of occurrence and development of liver injury due to coal arsenic poisoning.Methods Jiaole and Changqing villages in coal-burning-borne arsenism areas in Xingren County of Guizhou were selected as the survey sites,and 161 cases of arsenic-exposed residents were selected as the arsenic exposed group based on physical examination.They were divided into non-patient group (21 cases) and patient group (140 cases) according to the Diagnostic Criteria of Endemic Arsenism (WS/T 211-2001),and the patient group was further divided into mild hepatosis group (52 cases),moderately severe hepatosis group (36 cases) and non-apparent hepatosis group (52 cases) according to the Diagnostic Criteria of Occupational Chronic (GBZ 59-2010).Moreover,45 residents from one village neighboring to non-epidemic area were selected as controls.Peripheral blood samples were collected from all subjects.And mRNA expression of NQO1 and HO-1 were detected by RT-qPCR.Content of NQQ1 and HO-1 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results (①)Results of mRNA expression of NQ01 and HO-1:the relative expression level of mRNA of NQO1 and HO-1 in peripheral blood went up gradually as the degree of liver injury of population exposed to arsenic increased (F =5.548,10.961,all P ＜ 0.05);thereinto,the relative expression level of mRNA of NQO1 of mild hepatosis group (median:0.918) was higher than that of the control group (0.576,P ＜ 0.05),the relative expression level of mRNA of NQO1 of moderately severe hepatosis group (1.243) was higher than those of control group,non-patient group (0.653),non-apparent hepatosis group (0.636) and mild hepatosis group (all P ＜ 0.05);the relative expression level of mRNA of HO-1 of non-patient group (1.059),non-apparent hepatosis group (1.225),mild hepatosis group (1.553) and moderately severe hepatosis group (1.604) were higher than that of control group (0.767,all P ＜ 0.05);the relative expression level of mRNA of HO-1 of mild hepatosis group was higher than that of non-patient group (P ＜ 0.05);the relative expression level of mRNA of HO-1 of moderately severe hepatosis group was higher than those of non-patient group and non-apparent hepatosis group (all P ＜ 0.05).②)Results of protein expression of NQO-1 and HO-1:the level of protein expression of NQO1 and HO-1 in serum went up gradually as the degree of liver injury of population exposed to arsenic increased (F =19.685,17.725,all P ＜ 0.05).Thereinto,the protein expression of NQO1 and HO-1 of non-apparent hepatosis group,mild hepatosis group and moderately severe hepatosis group [NQO1:(6.272 ± 0.744),(6.336 ± 0.628),(6.714 ± 0.540) U/L;HO-1:(45.150 ± 4.813),(45.283 ± 5.049),(48.610 ± 5.365) U/L] were higher than those of control group and non-patient group [NQO1:(5.550 ± 0.730),(5.750 ± 0.427) U/L;HO-1:(39.856 ± 5.249),(42.375 ± 3.014) U/L,all P ＜ 0.05],the protein expression of NQO1 and HO-1 of moderately severe hepatosis group were higher than those of non-apparent hepatosis group and mild hepatosis group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The expression of mRNA and protein of NQO1 and HO-1 is closely related to the occurrence and development of liver injury due to arsenic exposure in coal arsenic poisoning areas.

Objective To study the application CT scans in Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum. Metlhods 648 children with pectus excavatum underwent Nuss procedure from July 2002 to September 2008 The preoperative CT scan was carried out for evaluation of the deformity degree and morphology classification of chest wall malformation, the deformity in relation with adjacent tissue and associated different disorder. Results Nuss procedure was successfully performed in all 648 patients. The preoperative CT scan showed medium deformity of the pectus excavatum in 73 cases ( 11.27% ) and severe deformity in 575 cases (88.73%). Morphologic classification of the pectus excavatum were symmetric type in 407cases (62.81% ) , eccentric type in 83( 12.81% ) ,and unbalanced type in 158( 24.38% ). 116 cases with pectus excavatum were associated with other different disorders, among them 55 cases ( 17.9% )were diagnosed by CT scan. 28 cases received stimultanously operation for their abnormalities. Conclusion CT scan is a useful tool for evaluation the deformity degree and morphology classification, direct the operation, reduce the complications and find other different disorders. It should be a routine examination before Nuss procedure.

Objective To explore the impact of the ratio between pelvic tilt (PT) and sacral slope (SS) on the life quality of patients with ankylosing spndylitis (AS) after kyphosis correction. Methods From November 2008 to May 2011, 33 AS pa?tients were reviewed, including 31 males and 2 females, aged from 19 to 58 years old (average, 36 years old). The thoracolumbar kyphosis angle was 35.23° ± 13.98° (range, 15.12°-74.37° ) and the lumbar lordosis angle was 8.68° ± 18.27° (range,-23.70°-62.15°). The Scoliosis Research Society (SRS)?22 questionnaire was used to evaluate the quality of life and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) was used to evaluate the condition of pain. The pelvic incidence (PI), PT, SS, sagittal vertical axis (SVA) and osteoto?my angle were obtained from standing lateral full?spine radiographs. The correlations were analyzed from the subjective grading and the sagittal parameters in AS patients. Results The osteotomy site was in L1 (5 cases, 21.00°-54.59° , average 32.59° ± 13.44° ), L2 (19 cases, 28.63°-66.24° , average 37.89° ± 9.26° ), L3 (9 cases, 31.78°-60.90° , average 47.05° ± 9.20° ), respectively. The range of osteotomy angle was 39.59°±10.82° (range, 21.00°-66.24°). The subjective grading and spino?pelvic parameters were improved significantly after operation except PI, only postoperative PT/SS (0.93±0.65) and ODI standing (0.60±0.75)(r=0.681, P<0.05), osteotomy angle (39.59°±10.82°) and satisfaction of management (3.33±0.49)(r=0.478, P<0.05)had correlation with the subjective grading. Conclusion Compared with the change of PT, SS and SVA, the change of PT/SS is more closely related to the quality of life after operation in AS patients with kyphosis, which should be pay attention to by surgeon when designing operative schemes.
