Objective:To investigate and compare the effect of sodium hyaluronate and chitosan in the prevention of thyroid post-operative adhesion. Methods:Totally 84 patients with thyroid operation in our hospital from August 2012 to August 2013 were select-ed, and according to the admission time, the patients were respectively divided into group A and B with 42 cases each. In order to pre-vent postoperative adhesion, group A was treated with sodium hyaluronate, and group B was treated with chitosan. The clinical curative effect of the two groups was compared. Results: The adhesion rate in group A was 14. 3%(6/42), which was higher than that in group B (3/42 7. 1%), while the difference was not statistically significant (P>0. 05). All the patients showed no bleeding, aller-gies and other adverse reactions, only in group A, 2 mild infection (4. 8%) occurred. The adverse reactions in the two groups were without significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion: Sodium hyaluronate and chitosan both have the preventive effect on thyroid postoperative adhesion with similar efficiency and adverse reactions.

Multicellular spheroid (MCS) can simulate many aspects of the in vivo physiological and pathological conditions in many aspects,better reflect the in-vivo behavior of cells in tumors.So it's increasingly accepted as a valuable tool for evaluating the efficacy of therapeutic intervention including chemotherapy,radiotherapy,immunotherapy and combined therapy.Various spheroid co-culture approaches have been presented to study heterologous cells interaction in solid tumors.The present review briefly introduces the methodology and applications of MCS with focus on the up-to-date information.

[Objective]To investigate and compare the effects of standard gamma nail (SGN) and proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) in the treatment of osteoporotic intertrochanteric fractures in the elderly.[Method]From May 2002 to September 2005,55 patients with intertrochanteric fractures were treated with SGN.Sixty-eight patients were treated with PFNA from November 2005 to June 2008.The effects of the two implants about perioperative complications,bone healing and the function of the operated hip joint were compared.[Result]No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups in blood loss,blood transfusion,infection,deep venous thrombosis and hospital stay.One patient developed femoral head avascular necrosis postoperatively in Gamma nail group.The incidence of postoperative hip pain in Gamma nail group was higher than that in the PFNA group,but there was no significant difference in the Harris score.[Conclusion]Gamma nail and PFNA nail are reliable methods to treat geriatric intertrochanteric fractures,with advantages of minimal iatrogenic injury,stable fixation and few complications.

Peliosis hepatis is a rare benign hepatic vascular disease.There is the lack of specific clinical features and preoperative diagnosis.A patient with intermittent liver area pain was admitted to the Third Central Hospital of Tianjin in April 2014.The patient with space-occupying lessions of the right lobe of liver was preliminarily diagnosed as with hepatocellular tumor or vasogenic tumor by computed tomography and B ultrasound examinations and then received liver resection combined with cholecystectomy.The result of postoperative pathological examination confirmed peliosis hepatis with adenomatous hyperplasia of liver cells.The patient was followed up till October 20,2014 without recurrence.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of the enhancement treatment on osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture and its complications in the elderly.Methods From September 2007 to February 2012,183 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture underwent percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) or percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in our department.157 of them were completely followed up (PKP group,n=96; PVP group,n=61) and totally 182 vertebral bodies were fractured (PKP group,n=107; PVP group,n=75).Visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Oswestry disability index (ODI) score were evaluated before and 3 days and 3 months after the surgery.Plain film radiography was taken to evaluate the vertebral body height.ODI score was evaluated at the end of the follow-up.The leakage of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) during the operation and the refracture were recorded.Results The mean height of the vertebral body before operation had no difference between PVP and PKP group [(1.31±0.18) cm vs.(1.32±0.16) cm,t =0.72,P＞0.05].After the operation,the mean height of the vertebral body was lower in PVP group than in PKP group [(1.50±0.20) cm vs.(1.66±0.17) cm,t=2.28,P＜0.05].The mean amount of the PMMA injected into the vertebral bodies was less in PVP group than in PKP group [(2.93±0.34) ml vs.(3.34±0.49) ml,t=2.39,P＜0.05].In the PVP group,the VAS scores were (7.5±0.79),(3.0±0.6) and (1.9±0.9) before,3 days and 3 months after operation respectively,and there was a significant difference in VAS score before versus 3 days after operation (t =15.59,P＜0.05).In thePKPgroup,the VAS scores were (7.3±1.0),(3.0±0.8) and (2.2± 0.9)before,3 days and 3 months after operation respectively,and there was a significant difference in VAS score before versus 3 days after operation (t=10.69,P＜0.05).In the PVP group,the ODI scores were (78.9±7.3),(30.0±3.7) and (25.5±3.5) before and 3 months after operation and at the end of follow-up respectively,and there were significant differences in ODI score before operation versus 3 months after operation (t=20.83,P＜0.01) and 3 months after operation versus at the end of follow-up (t=4.03,P＜0.05).In the PKP group,the ODI scores were (78.8±6.8),(29.8±4.43) and (23.8 ± 2.7) before operation,3 months after operation and at the end of follow-up respectively,and there were significant differences in ODI score before operation versus 3 months after operation (t=21.52,P＜0.01) and 3 months after operation versus at the end of follow-up (t=3.14,P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in VAS and ODI scores between the two groups before versus after operation (t=0.34,P＞0.05).The incidence of refracture was 8.2％ in PVP group and 9.4％ in PKP group,which had no statistical difference between the two groups(x2 =0.06,P＞0.05).All the leakage was asymptomatic.The incidence of PMMA leakage was 20.0％ (15 cases) in PVP group and 9.3％ (10 cases) in PKP group,which had a statistical difference between the two groups (x2 =4.22,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Enhancement treatment for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture can quickly relieve the pain and improve the quality of life.PKP and PVP show no differences in the effect of analgesia and the improvement of life quality,but PKP has the advantages in recovering vertebral height and reducing PMMA leakage.

Objective To explore the relevance between sequence variation of human papillomavirus (HPV)16 subtypes E2 gene or long control region (LCR) and cervical lesions.Methods Fifty specimens from HPV16 infected people in Chengdu were collected,including cervical exfoliated cells from 38 HPV carriers,papilloma tissues from 8 cases of genital warts,2 with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅱ and 2 with CIN Ⅲ in this study.Polymerase chain reaction was used to amplify E2 gene and LCR,then an evolutionary tree was constructed.Results In all the 50 specimens,there were 12 mutation sites in E2 gene,among which,C→A existed in one specimen of genital warts,and ≥2 mutation sites existed in all the other 48 specimens.There were 28 mutation sites of LCR sequence of all the specimens.Ten specimens were chosen to construct evolutionary tree and were sequenced.The data showed that 8 specimens were Asian variants,E2 gene mutation existed in all the specimens while the LCR 7867 G→A only existed in the four CIN.Conclusion LCR 7867G→A is a correlative mutation site of cervical lesions in Chengdu.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical effects of one-stage hemiarthroplasty in treating fresh subtrochanteric fracture combined with old femoral neck fracture.

METHODSFrom October 2003 to October 2013, 7 patients with fresh subtrochanteric fracture and old femoral neck fracture were treated with hemiarthroplasty in one stage. There were 5 males and 2 females, aged from 69 to 80 years old with an average of 74.5 years. According to the Garden classification, 2 cases were type IV and 5 cases were type V. According to the A0 classification of subtrochanteric fracture, all cases were type A1 (long oblique femoral subtrochanteric fractures). Biological coating long handle femoral prosthesis was used in the patients. The hip joint functions were assessed according to Charnley scoring system after all hemiarthroplasty.

RESULTSSeven patients were followed up from 12 to 24 months with an average of 18 months. There were 1 case with urinary system infection and 1 case with deep venous thrombosis. Of all, 5 cases recovered the walk ability at 6 months after operation and 2 cases could walk with the help of the crutch at 1 year after operation. According to Charnley scoring system to assess the hip joint function, the total Charnley scores reached 15.0±2.5, and 4 cases got an excellent results, 2 good, 1 fair.

CONCLUSIONArthroplasty through anterolateral approach can obtain satisfactory clinical effects in treating fresh subtrochanteric fracture combined with old femoral neck fracture, it has advantages of good joint stability, little pain, less complication, quickly recover, early activities on fields.
