Objective To investigate the changes of serum and pleural effusion inflammatory indexes in chil-dren with mycoplasma pneumoniae complicated with pleural effusion.Methods Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)double antibody sandwich method was used in the three of pleural effusion group,mycoplasma pneumonia group,control group and other groups to detect serum and pleural effusion human interleukin 6 (IL -6).human inter-leukin 2 (IL -2)and TNF -(human tumor necrosis factor alpha)etc.Inflammation index levels were detected and compared.Results The group of patients with mycoplasma pneumonia mycoplasma pneumonia patients was (9.93 ± 1.05)pg/mL for the IL -6 level,IL -2 levels for (4.93 ±0.55)μg/mL,(1.45 ±0.17)ng/mL for the TNF alpha level,which were significantly higher than those of the control group,the IL -2 was significantly lower than that of the control group,with statistically significant difference (t =6.25,5.88,4.63,5.95,3.69,5.95,all P <0.05).Compa-ring pleural effusion group and mycoplasma pneumonia group,we found serum IL -6,TNF alpha levels of pleural effu-sion group were significantly higher than that of mycoplasma pneumonia group,while IL -2 was lower than that in group mycoplasma pneumonia,with statistically significant difference (t =4.02,3.06,3.06 and 2.88,all P <0.05). The levels of serum IL -6,IL -2 and TNF -in the serum of patients with different effusion levels were significantly different from the other two groups (all P <0.05).Pleural effusion IL -6 and TNF level of pleural effusion group and mycoplasma pneumonia patients was significantly higher than those of the control group and IL -2 were significantly lower than that of the control group,the difference had statistical significance (t =5.69,3.69,602,4.11,2.94,3.67, all P <0.05).Pleural effusion pleural effusion IL -6 and TNF levels were significantly higher than those in the myco-plasma pneumonia group and IL -2 were significantly lower than that in mycoplasma pneumonia group,the difference had statistical significance (t =3.58,4.13,3.21,all P <0.05).The inflammatory indexes of patients with different effusion volume could be found in the pleural effusion,in patients with a large number of pleural effusion,the IL -2, IL -6 and TNF -levels compared with the other two groups showed significantly different (t =6.11、5.44、4.82,all P <0.05).Conclusion IL -6,IL -2 and TNF alpha in the occurrence and development of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia play an important role.Suffering from mycoplasma pneumonia in patients with pleural effusion,whoseTNF-and IL -6 inflammatory index and serum indexes are abnormal,is of certain clinical practical value for clinical diagnosis,treatment and prognosis,as the indicator of the development and prognosis of pneumonia and pleural effusion.

IPA.Skin permeation was significantly enhanced by increasing the loading concentration of OA or NMP,larger IPA amount(8%) or PG amount(20%) could inhibit the permeation of artesunate.Conclusion Oleic acid was found to be the most efficient enhancer for artesunate,10% is the most effective concentration.

[Objective] To evaluate the surgical techniques and its clinical results of CDH Legacy in the treatment of scoliosis.[Method]Nine patients(7 female and 2 male)with scoliosis instrumented with posterior CDH Legacy system were recruited for this retrospective study.The etiological classification of scoliosis were idiopathic for 7,congenital for 1,neurofibromatosis(NFl)for 1.The average age was 13.5 years(ranged 11～18 years).The average preoperative Cobb's angle was 54?(ranged 48?～68?).Seven AIS and one CS patients received one stage posterior CDH Legacy instrumentation;the NFl patients received one stage anterior epiphysiodesis and second stage posterior CDH Legacy instrumentation.[Result]There was no death,no infection and no neurological complication.No intra-operative fracture,no dura matter or pleuml laceration occurred.Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome occurred in one patients and recovered with conservative treatment.Posterior Cobb's angle averaged 20? with correction rate of 63%.The duration of follow-up averaged 23 months(ranged 20～30 months).Surgical time averaged 260 min(ranged 210～300 min)and mean EBL was 700 ml(300～1 000 ml).Bony fusions were achieved in all patients and no coronal or sagittal plane decompensation occurred.The loss of correction at last follow-up was 4? with 7.4% loss of correction rate.[Conclusion]The clinical results of CDH Legacy are as good as the other three generation implants,its advantage lies in lower profile,solid inter-locking,versatile implants and handy manipulation.

Azone. PG combined with azone showed a higher synergic effect of enhancing effectiveness. Conclusion National Starch polyacrylate pressure-sensitive adhesive was the most effective pressure-sensitive adhesive matrix, PVP-K30 was the most effective crystallization inhibitor, PG combined with azone were the most effective penetration enhancers.

0.05). No death, pseudoarthrosis, or implantation failure occurred. Conclusions One-row portal pattern is suitable for patients with long-segment deformity and short anteroposterior thoracic diameter, while double-row portal pattern is suitable for patients with short-segment deformity and long anteroposterior thoracic diameter.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of selective thoracic spinal fusion in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis using either iliac bone or autologous rib combined with allografts. Methods A retrospective study was made in 84 cases of idiopathic thoracic scoliosis, who were operated on with posterior instrumentation of CD, CDH or TSRH from 1999 to 2000. These patients were divided into two groups. In Group A, 34 patients, who were 12 to 20 years with a mean age of 14.5 years with a mean Cobb angle 56?(range, 40? to 82?), received autologous iliac bone grafting, and no thoracoplasty were performed. In group B 50 patients, who were 13 to 19 years with a mean age of 15.4 years with a mean Cobb angle of 54? (range, 38? to 80?), had allograft bone grafting combined with the ribs from thoracoplasty. The patients were followed up for at least 2 years with an average of 3.4 years regarding the clinical and radiographic outcomes. Results For group A, an average of 73.2% correction rate was achieved, and average 10% loss of correction and 3% of pseudoarthrosis was recorded at 2 year follow-up. The incidence of donor site morbidity was 26%, which included deep infection, hematoma, delayed healing of incision and continuous pain. For group B, an average of correction rate was 70.4% with 9% average loss of correction and 2% of pseudoarthrosis at 2 year follow-up. The complications related to thoracoplasty consisted of intraoperative tear of parietal pleural, pneumothorax, effusive pleuritis, and chest pain. Conclusion The clinical outcomes are comparable between the group of iliac bone grafing and the group of rib grafing associated with allografts in terms of fusion rate and loss of correction. If chose appropriately, allografts plus autologous rib harvested from thoracoplasty will be a good alternative to iliac crest regarding its safety, efficacy and reliability.

Objective To explore the inhibitory effect of mycophenolic acid (MPA) on the proliferation and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) secretion in mice glomerular mesangial cells (GMCs).Methods MPA with different concentrations ( 0.1 , 1, 5 and 10 ?mol/L ) was added into the cultured mice GMC line in vitro for 24 h. The GMCs proliferation level was detected by the 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) incorporation. The absorbance for counting the GMCs survival was read at 570 nm by using an automated microplate ELISA reader. The cells treated with MPA (0, 0.5 and 2.5 ?mol/L ) were stimulated by TNF-? (20 ng/ml), IL-1? (2 ng/ml), IFN-? (10 ng/ml). Four h later, the MCP-1 concentration in supernatant was determined by ELISA. At the same time, the lymphocyte migration was examined.Results MPA has a concentration -dependent antiproliferative effect on cultured GMCs. The secretion of MCP-1 of cultured GMCs stimulated by TNF-?, IL-1?, IFN-? was significantly increased. Addition of MPA could signi -ficantly inhibit the secretion of MCP-1 ( P

BACKGROUND:Due to special physiological and anatomical location, stability of the spine is very complicated during thoracolumbar fractures. It is difficult to identify the stability of the spine. It should be based on their individual circumstances, to explore more effective internal fixation repair method.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the Cobb’s angle and vertebral height of patients with thoracolumbar fracture and spinal cord compression treated with posterior laminectomy and screw fixation, and compared with anterior laminectomy.
METHODS:One hundred patients with thoracolumbar fracture and spinal cord compression, who were treated in the Panyu District Central Hospital from January 2013 to November 2014, were enroled in this study. The patients were equaly and randomly divided into posterior laminectomy fixation group and anterior laminectomy fixation group. Tactile and sports of American Spinal Injury Association scores, Cobb’s angle and vertebral height were assessed before treatment and 1 month after treatment, and fixation effects were compared between the twogroups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) No significant difference in each index was detected between the two groups preoperatively (P> 0.05). (2) Tactile and sports of American Spinal Injury Association scores, Cobb’s angle and vertebral height were better in the posterior laminectomy fixation group than in the anterior laminectomy fixation group at 1 month postoperatively (P< 0.05). (3) These findings indicated that compared with the anterior laminectomy fixation, posterior laminectomy fixation for thoracolumbar fracture combined with spinal cord compression obtained better outcomes, and could obviously relieve spinal cord compression. Posterior laminectomy fixation isasafe and effective treatment method for thoracolumbar fracture and spinal cord compression.

Objective: To study the effect of Maitork (a sodium chloride injection containing Ginkgo bioba extract and ligustrazine phosphate) on plasma levels of fibrinogen (Fg), platelet granule membrane protein 140 (GMP-140), tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) after focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Methods: Eighty male SD rats were randomly allocated into groups 3-day (n=40) and 7-day (n=40) after operation. Then each group was divided into 4 subgroups: sham-operation, ischemia control, Ginaton and Maitork. The focal cerebral ischemia model was established in rats. The activities of GMP-140 and tPA were measured by chromogenic substrate assay, and the level of Fg was measured by gel plaque assay. Results: The level of Fg in the Ginaton group was significantly higher than that in the ischemia control group, and the 7-day group was also significantly higher than that in the Maitork group (P
