OBJECTIVETo explore clinical outcomes of posterior malleolar fractures with medial-extension type through posterioromedial and posteriorlateral incision.
METHODSFrom January 2008 to January 2011,25 patients with posterior malleolar fractures with medial-extension type were treated by hollow lag screw. Among them, 15 patients were treated through posteromedial incision,including 9 males and 6 females,aged from 21 to 67 years old with an average of 48.1 +/- 1.3; there were 5 cases with type A, 6 cases with type B and 4 cases with type C,according to Denis-Weber classification. Ten patients were treated by through posterior-lateral incision,including 6 males and 4 females, aged from 23 to 64 years old with an average of 46.9 +/- 1.5; there were 3 cases with type A, 5 cases with type B and 2 cases with type C,according to Denis-Weber classification. Operation time, blood loss, length of incision, times of X-ray exposure and complications of two groups were recorded and compared, Baird-Jackson effective evaluation were applied for evaluate clinical outcomes.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 49 months with an average of 20.6 months. There were significant differences in operation time, blood loss, times of X-ray exposure and complications between two group (P < 0.05). While there was no obvious meaning in clinical outcomes between two groups (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONTreating posterior malleolar fractures with medial-extension type through posteromedial approach can expose and fix fracture under direct vision, has advantages of shorter operation time, less X-ray exposure and blood loss, is a good choice of surgical approach.

Objective To screen the conservative,stable and specific DNA signature sequence in the plasmid of Yersinia pestis.Methods Specific validation trials and stability of the qualification test were carried out to 40 strains of Yersinia pestis,47 strains of non-Yersinia pestis of home and wild types of rodent in Yunnan,by using 32 DNA sequences derived from Yersinia pestis in the plasmid and conventional PCR technology,and Yersinia pestis vaccine strain EV76 as a positive control.Results Four pairs of relatively conservative,stable and specific DNA marker genes were screened:YPMT1.05c,YPMT1.03c,YPMT1.42 and YPMT1.04c.Conclusions The 4 pairs of Yersinia pestis DNA signature sequences can be used for rapid diagnosis of plague.

Abstract: Objective To analyze the changes of cytokine levels in patients with sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis and drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis before and after anti-tuberculosis treatment. Methods The clinical data of 213 pulmonary tuberculosis patients admitted to the Eighth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from August 2019 to October 2020 were collected, and divided into a sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis group and a drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis group, of which 141 were in the sensitive group and 72 in the drug-resistant group , and the pro-inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-6, IL-17, interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and anti-inflammatory factors IL-10 and IL-4 in plasma before treatment, 3 months and 6 months after treatment were compared. Results Compared with the healthy group, the levels of plasma IL-6 in the sensitive group and the resistant group were significantly increased, difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). The plasma levels of IFN-γ and IL-17 in the sensitive group were increased, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, the levels of IL-6 and IL-4 in the plasma of the sensitive group after 6 months of treatment were lower than those after 3 months of treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), and IFN-γ was significantly decreased (P<0.001). After 6 months of treatment, the IL-10 content was lower than that before treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), and the IFN-γ decreased significantly (P<0.000 1). The levels of IFN-γ at 3 months were higher than those in the resistant group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). After 6 months of treatment, there was no significant difference in the content of IFN-γ between the sensitive group and the resistant group. The effective rate of CT absorption was 70% in the sensitive group and only 43.33% in the resistant group at 3 months of treatment, and there was no significant difference in the effective rate between the two groups after 6 months of treatment. Conclusions Detection of pro-inflammatory cytokines and anti-inflammatory cytokines in plasma can provide reference for host-directed therapy of pulmonary tuberculosis. Understanding this important feature of cytokines on pathogen-host interactions can provide new insights into the study of virulence mechanisms and may provide new approaches for immune intervention in pulmonary tuberculosis.

Objective To develop a method for the determination of berberine hydrochloride,palmatine hydrochloride and jatrorrhizine hydrochloride in Yiqi Zhixue Granules. Methods The samples were extracted by ultrasonication with methanol for 30 min,and an ion pair RP-HPLC method was applied to determine three kinds of alkaloids.The column of C18 with temperature at 30 ℃ was used to separate the target components,the mobile phase consisted of the mixed solution of 0.01 mol/L sodium-heptanesulfonate solution and equal volume of 0.01 mol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution(pH being adjusted at 3.1 with phosphoric acid) combined with acetonitrile(70 ∶ 30),the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min,and the detection wavelength was at 345 nm. Results Three kinds of alkaloids were separated perfectly,the average recoveries(n=6)were 100.95 %(RSD=2.10 % ) for berberine chloride,102.14 %(RSD=2.29 % ) for palmatine chloride,and 100.71 %(RSD=2.65 % ) for jatrorrhizine chloride. Conclusion The developed method is demonstrated to be simple,specific and accurate,which can be used to determine the contents of berberine chloride,palmatine chloride and jatrorrhizine chloride in Yiqi Zhixue Granula,and to control the quality of Folium Mahoniae in Yiqi Zhixue Granules.

Objective To investigate the impaction of different prostate biopsy strategies on the tumor detection.Methods 214 consecutive men who were highly suspected as prostate cancer were included in this study.TRUS guided prostate biopsy of 13 cores was conducted in each patient.Among these individuals,PSA(total prostate specific antigen) level were among 0.8 ng/ml and 112.3 ng/ml,mean 18.7 ng/ml,of which 203 cases were over 4.0 ng/ml.The prostate volume was between 12.3 ml and 182.5 ml with 61.3 ml of mean.DRE(digital rectal examination) was normal in 173 cases and abnormal in 41 cases.The tumor detection rate for each biopsy core was calculated.The sensitivity of different combinations of biopsy cores(eg.prostate biopsy strategies) was compared with a 13 core biopsy protocol,in which besides the sextant biopsies,the far lateral and mid regions of the gland were also taken,as 8 core and 10 core biopsy.Results Prostate cancers were detected in 77 of 214(36.0%) patients with 13 core biopsy protocol.Of the possible combinations of biopsy cores,10-core biopsy protocol that included cores at the base,mid gland and apex of the prostate with lateral base and mid cores detected 97.4% of cancers.The detection rate of this 10-core biopsy protocol was equivalent to that of the 13 core regional biopsy(P=0.5).Conclusions 10-core biopsy protocol that combines cores at the base,mid gland and apex of the prostate with lateral base and mid cores should be the preferred strategy in early detection of prostate cancer.

Objective: To understand the overall situation and problems of the human resources in community medical institutions in Heilongjiang, put forward relevant measurement and suggestions, hoping to provide references for departments of the government designing human resources policies in community medical institutions in Heilongjiang. Methods: Through consulting some related literature information, to recognize the related policies and development situation of community health human resources in Heilongjiang and other places in China. Using Excell2003 to set up the database and analyze. Results:The community health service system has been established in Heilongjiang, but it lacks of human resources planning; the community health human resource configuration is not reasonable; and the existing community health persons’ training demand is higher. Conclusion: Community health service institutions in Heilongjiang should strengthen the government leadership, designed relevant policies, adjust and optimize the structure, speed up the training of the current staff and attract the talents.
