Objective To compare the biomechanical properties between the two-level fixation by im- plantation of pedicle-screws into the adjacent upper and lower vertebrae of the fractured vertebra and the three-level fixation by implantation of pedicle screws into the fractured vertebra and its adjacent upper and lower vertebrae in the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures.Methods Eight fresh frozen calf spines were used in this study.Each specimen was tested in four models:intact model as the control,L1 burst fracture model,two-level fixation model, and three-level fixation model.The L1 burst fracture model was created on a biaxial material testing machine (MTS858 Bionix test system,America).During the experiment,the flexion,extension,bilateral bending and axial rotation loadings were applied to the specimens and the range of motion(ROM)was measured with a three-dimensional laser analysis apparatus and the stiffness was calculated subsequently.One-way statistical analysis was used.Results The ROMs under six different loadings in the fracture model became larger obviously(P＜0.05)and the stiffness decreased(P＜0.05).The ROMs in both fixation models were smaller than those in the other models(P＜0.01)and the stiffness increased distinctly(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in ROMs and stiffness between the two-level fixation and three-level fixation models(P＞0.05).Conclusion Two-level fixation provides similar biomechanical stability as three-level fixation does in the reconstruction of unstable thoracolumbar fractures.

Objective To study the value of zoledronic acid combined with psychological intervention in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures in percutaneous balloon kyphoplasty (PKP). Methods 72 patients with osteoporotic vertebral fractures underwent PKP operation from August 2013 to August 2015 were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 36 cases,in each group. The patients in the control group were given salmon calcitonin after operation. The patients in the observation group were given zoledronic acid after operation. Both patients were given psychological care. The total effective rate of clinical treatment and the incidence of secondary osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures,Visual analogue pain scale before and after treatment (VAS), Oswestry dysfunction index questionnaire (ODI) score, bone mineral density T value changes were compared between the two groups. Results The total effective rate was 94.44% in the observation group and 77.78% in the control group (P<0.05). The recurrence fracture rate was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of VAS and ODI in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The T value of bone mineral density was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Zoledronic acid combined with psychological intervention can effectively improve the effective rate of PKP after osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures, increase bone density and reduce the incidence of fracture, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To evaluate whether Ly294002,suppressing phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/AKT survival signaling pathway,can change the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to radiotherapy. Methods Breast cancer cultured MCF7 cells treated with:radiation alone;Ly294002;or the combination of radiation and Ly294002.The inhibition of PI3K/AKT by Ly294002 was confirmed by Western blot.Clo- nogenic assay was used quantitatively to measure the mitotic cell death,and caspase-3 assay was used to e- valuate apoptosis.Results 1.Ly29400 could partially inhibit phosphorylated AKT but not radiation,the combination of both could enhance the inhibition of phosphorylated AKT,2.Timing of exposing cells to Ly294002 had some impact on clonogenic survival by radiation,one hour pre-radiation and 10 days post-ra- diation exposing to Ly294002 could maximally sensitize the cells to irradiation,3.Ly29400 combined with radiation could synergistically enhance mitotic death and apoptosis of MCF7 cells,with SER of SF_4 and D_0, being equal to 1.25 and 1.42.Conclusions PI3K/AKT pathway may be a potential target for enhancing the response of breast cancer cells to radiotherapy.

Objective Under different standard uptake value(SUV),to assess gross tumor volume (GTV) definition for non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) with 18-fluoro-deoxy-glucose positron emission tomography (~(18)FDG PET) both under definite threshold (42 percent threshold) and various relative threshold (threshold SUV/maximum SUV) derived from the linear regressive function,threshold SUV=0.307?(mean target SUV)+0.588,with computer tomography (CT).Methods Of 20 patients with non-small cell lung cancer,the CT GTV (GTV_(?)).PET GTV with 42 percents threshold (GTV_(42%)) and PET GTV with relative threshold (GTV_(?)) were obtained and compared.Results The mean GTV_(42%),,mean GTV_(?) and mean GTV_(CT) was (13 812.5?13 841.4),(24 325.3?22 454.7) and (28 350.9?26 079.8)mm~3,respectively,with the difference in mean GTV among these three methods significant (F =10,P＜0.01).The GTV_(42%) was smaller than the GTV_(?) and the GTV_(CT)(P＜0.01),with i(?)significant difference between GTV_(?) and GTV_(CT)(P=0.125).Conclusion The relative threshold is more suitable to define the gross tumor volume than the definite threshold.

Objective To observe the effect of different airway pressure on ventilation, organ perfusion and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) of cardiac arrest (CA) pigs during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and to explore the possible beneficial mechanism of positive airway pressure during CPR. Methods Twenty healthy landrace pigs of clean grade were divided into low airway pressure group (LP group, n = 10) and high airway pressure group (HP group, n = 10) with random number table. The model of ventricular fibrillation (VF) was reproduced by electrical stimulation, and mechanical chest compressions and mechanical ventilation (volume-controlled mode, tidal volume 7 mL/kg, frequency 10 times/min) were performed after 8 minutes of untreated VF. Positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) in LP group and HP group was set to 0 cmH2O and 6 cmH2O (1 cmH2O = 0.098 kPa) respectively. Up to three times of 100 J biphasic defibrillation was delivered after 10 minutes of CPR. The ROSC of animals were observed, and the respiratory parameters, arterial and venous blood gas and hemodynamic parameters were recorded at baseline, 5 minutes and 10 minutes of CPR. Results The number of animals with ROSC in the HP group was significantly more than that in the LP group (8 vs. 3, P < 0.05). Intrathoracic pressure during chest compression relaxation was negative in the HP group, and its absolute value was significantly lower than that in LP group at the same time [intrathoracic negative pressure peak (cmH2O): -4.7±2.2 vs. -10.8±3.5 at 5 minutes, -3.9±2.8 vs. -6.5±3.4 at 10 minutes], however, there was significantly difference only at 5 minutes of CPR (P < 0.01). Intrathoracic pressure variation during CPR period in the HP group were significantly higher than those in the LP group (cmH2O: 22.5±7.9 vs. 14.2±4.4 at 5 minutes, 23.1±6.4 vs. 12.9±5.1 at 10 minutes, both P < 0.01). Compared to the LP group, arterial partial pressure of oxygen [PaO2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 81.5±10.7 vs. 68.0±12.1], venous oxygen saturation (SvO2: 0.493±0.109 vs. 0.394±0.061) at 5 minutes of CPR, and PaO2 (mmHg: 77.5±13.4 vs. 63.3±10.5), arterial pH (7.28±0.09 vs 7.23±0.11), SvO2 (0.458±0.096 vs. 0.352±0.078), aortic blood pressure [AoP (mmHg): 39.7±9.5 vs. 34.0±6.9], coronary perfusion pressure [CPP (mmHg): 25.2±9.6 vs. 19.0±7.6], and carotid artery flow (mL/min:44±16 vs. 37±14) at 10 minutes of CPR in the HP group were significantly higher (all P < 0.05). Arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) in the HP group was significantly lower than that in the LP group at 10 minutes of CPR (mmHg: 60.1±9.7 vs. 67.8±8.6, P < 0.05). Conclusions Compared to low airway pressure, a certain degree of positive airway pressure can still maintain the negative intrathoracic pressure during relaxation of chest compressions of CPR, while increase the degree of intrathoracic pressure variation. Positive airway pressure can improve oxygenation and hemodynamics during CPR, and is helpful to ROSC.
