Objective In order to understand the relationship between myoblast and Schwann cell,our purpose was to investigate the effects of biological characters of myoblasts co-cul tured with Schwann cells and pro vide the basic theory for constructing artificial muscle involving artificial nerve.Methods After sterilizing with iodine tincture and alcohol,the brachial plexus,sciatic nerve and triceps surae muscle of neonatal SD rat were harvested and peeled off their membranes,blood vessels and fat tissues under operating microscope thor oughly.The nerve and muscle tissues were cut in pieces by microscis sors,and then digested and isolated by collagenase and pancreatin in20and15minutes respectively.DMEM medium was employed to culture my oblasts and Schwann cells.After co-culturing myoblasts of rats with Schwann cells in vitro,the morphological characteristics and the growth condition of two cells were observed under inverted phase contrast mi croscope,the effects of Schwann cells secretion for proliferation of myoblasts were detected by 3 HTdR iso topic tracing and expressed by disintegration per minute(DPM),formation rate of myotubes was counted under micro scope and statistic data was analyzed,the functional differentiation degree of my oblasts affected by Schwann cells was analysed by?-sarcomeric actin immunohistochemistry(SABC)and imaging analysis tech nique.Results Co-cultured myoblasts proliferated,and myotubes ap peared earlier.Comparing with sole-cultured my oblasts,the shape of myobutes from co-cultured myoblasts tended to be elongating and robust.The value of DPM far-exceeded the control group,and reached its peak of 2500(just800for con-trol group).The positive cells of ?-sarcomeric actin appeared in brown red color.However,syn thesis and excre tion of a-sarcome ric actin in co-cultured myoblasts were much greater than control group,and the gray ash value between two groups was of a significant difference.Conclusion Primary rat myoblasts co-cultured with Schwann cells in vitro is beneficial in regulating its the growth,proliferation and the differentiation.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous CT guided interstitial 125Ⅰ seeds implantation treatment for refractory pelvic malignant tumors and discuss the procedure of technique.Methods Twenty-three patients with refractory pelvic malignant tumors(25 lesions,diameter 3.5-7.0 cm,mean 4.5 cm) showing failure response to full chemotherapy and/or radical radiotherapy after tumors resection were undergone percutaneous CT guided intratumoral 125Ⅰseed implantation.Treatment plan system(TPS)was used to design the distribution and number of 125Ⅰ seeds according to matched peripheral dose(MPD)1-3 days before the procedure.Of which 6 cases received combined internal iliac arterial infusion chemotherapy before or after the 125Ⅰ seed implantation procedure.Results 9 ～ 75(mean 27)125Ⅰ seeds were implanted into a single tumor at first time including 6 patients with intraarterial chemotherapy for 14 cycles(mean 2.3 cycles),showed relief of clinical pain symptoms in 16 of 23 cases,72 h ～ 4 w after the seeds implantation;with the an effective rate of 69.6%.Follow up for 2-34 months(median,21 months),CT or MRI performed 2 months after the seeds implantation showed no CR,but PR in 18 cases,SD in 4 cases,and PD in 1 case,with overall response rate of 78%(18/23),and no serious complication.In addition,20 cases survived,with the longest one of 34 months and the other 3 died.Conclusions Intratumoral 125Ⅰ seeds implantation under CT guidance for pelvic refractory malignant tumors is safe,minimally invasive,and effective.

Aim To elucidate the polymorphism of hepatic lipasegene gene and the relation to coronary heart disease. Methods CHD group had one hundred and fifty-six patients, and each subgroup was: myocardium infarction CHD subgroup included eighty-four patients; non-myocardium infarction subgroup included seventy-two patients; pure CHD subgroup comprised sixty-five patients and hypertension and CHD subgroup comprised ninety-one patients. Phenol-Chloroform method was used to extract DNA from human peripheral blood, and a combination of polymerasechain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism were used to analyze the distribution of genotypes and alleles of the polymorphism site of hepatic lipase. Results The genotype and allele distribution of HL-514C/T polymorphism were significantly different between the whole CHD group and control group(P

Objective To investigate a feasibility of using dose constraint template (DCT) to increase conformity index (CI) of planning target volume (PTV) and improve intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) planning efficiency for early stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods Ten patients with pathological diagnosed and treated by IMRT were selected for this study. Target volumes were delineated with Corvus 6.3 of treatment planning system, two dose limiting regions(DLR) around PIN were added by extending from PIN,each DLR was 1 cm thick. We created three plans:Plan0,Planl and Plan2. PianO was without DLR and DCT, Planl without DLR but with DCT, Plan2 with both condition;but to compare dose distribution in PLTV and normal tissue using three plans. Results Three plans could fill equal request of dose distribution in PLTV and normal tissue, and their difference was not statistical significant. CI of Plan2 was increased and planning time was decreased significantly compared with Piano and Planl. Conclusloa Usage of DCT together with DLR can increase CI of PTV and improve IMRT planning efficiency for early stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma, planning time is shortened significantly.

BACKGROUND:Intertrochanteric fracture is one of the most common fractures in older adults. The surgical treatment methods include artificial joint replacement (total hip and femoral head replacement) and internal fixation (proximal femoral nail anti-rotation and dynamic hip screw), but there is no clear evidence to evaluate the effect of them. OBJECTIVE: To compare the effect difference of arthroplasty and internal fixation in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly people. METHODS:We retrieved randomized controled studies on artificial joint replacement (total hip and femoral head replacement) and internal fixation (proximal femoral nail anti-rotation and dynamic hip screw) in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture from 1990 to 2015. Meta-analysis was used to compare operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, one-year postoperative Harris hip scores, and one-year postoperative complication between the arthroplasty and internal fixation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Twenty-one studies were included. (2) Intraoperative bleeding volume and one-year postoperative Harris hip scores were higher in the arthroplasty group than in the internal fixation group. (3) Operation time was similar between the arthroplasty and internal fixation groups. (4) Complication rate was lower in the arthroplasty group than in the internal fixation group. Incidence of complications was closed between the arthroplasty and internal fixation groups. (5) Results suggested that the effect of arthroplasty was better than internal fixation for treating intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly. However, prospective large-sample long-term randomized controled trials are needed for verification.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the outcome of Titanium elastic intramedullary nailing (TEN) for the treatment of displaced midclavicular fractures.

METHODSBetween February 2010 and February 2013, 62 patients with displaced midclavicular fractures were treated by TEN, including 27 males and 35 females with an average age of 37.6 years old ranging from 15 to 67 years. The course of disease was from 1 to 9 days (means 2.7 days). Thirty-nine cases were treated by closed reduction and 23 cases by assistant small incision. Based on OTA (the Orthopaedic Trauma Association classification) classification, 31 cases of simple fractures involved 5 cases of 06-A1,15 cases of 06-A2,11 cases of 06-A3; 31 cases of wedge fractures involved 4 cases of 06-B1,12 cases of 06-B2,15 cases of 06-B3. Postoperative pain relief were evaluated by VAS score,and operation time,fracture healing time were recorded. After 6 weeks and after removing internal fixation shoulder joint function was evaluated by Constant score, and shoulder joint function were assessed by Herscovici score after 6 weeks.

RESULTSExcept 2 cases were lost to follow-up, 2 cases did not remove internal fixation, 3 cases' fractures were nonunion, the remaining 55 patients received follow-up for an average time of 11.4 months. The average preoperative VAS score was 5.20±0.71, and it turned to be 1.550.59 at 3 days after operation. The average operative duration was 40 min (15 to 65 min). The average bone healing time was (2.71±0.54) months (2 to 5 months). No difference about bone healing time was found between simple fractures and wedge fractures,and between the patients treated by closed reduction and assistant small incision. According to Herscovici standard, the shoulder function was excellent in 49 cases, good in 4, fair in 1, and poor in 1. Simple fractures achieved better Constant score than wedge fractures at 6 weeks postoperatively, whereas no difference was found at 4 weeks after fixation removal.

CONCLUSIONTitanium elastic nails (TEN) for treatment of displaced midclavicular fractures has advantages of good clinical effect,rapid pain relief,fast recovery of shoulder joint function. For OTA classification type B patients with comminuted fracture can replace steel to achieve very good effect, but to grasp the appropriate.

Objective To study the clinical significance of the serum angiopoietin-2(Ang-2) in the diagnosis,recurrence,invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.Methods The serum Ang-2 and carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) levels in 158 patients with gastric cancer (gastric cancer group) and 30 normal controls(control group) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) technique respectively.The serum Ang-2 and CEA levels were also measured 2 weeks after operation in gastric cancer group and reexamined in the recurred gastric cancer patients in 2 years after operation (recurred and metastasis group).The correlation between the serum Ang-2 level and pathologic c haracterization of gastric cancer was evaluated.Results The serum Ang-2 and CEA levels in gastric cancer group [ (331.8 ±64.3),(42.6 ±37.3)μg/L] and recurred and metastasis group [(318.7 ±72.9),(40.5 ±36.7)μg/L] were significantly higher than those in control group [ (187.4 ± 32.7),(4.2 ± 3.1 )μ g/L] (P ＜ 0.01 ),and the serum Ang-2 level 2 weeks after operation [ (211.6 ± 75.1 ) μ g/L ] was significantly decreased to the control group (P ＞ 0.05 ),while the serum CEA level [ (33.4 ± 30.6) μ g/L ] was still significantly higher than the control group (P ＜ 0.01 ).The sensitivity of the serum Ang-2 for diagnosis of gastric cancer was markedly higher than that of the serum CEA (P ＜ 0.01 ).There was correlation between serum Ang-2 and degree of tumor differentiation,TNM pathological staging,lymphatic metastasis,invasion depth and tumor size (p ＜0.01 ),but there was no correlation between serum Ang-2 and tissue classification and location of gastric cancer (P＞ 0.05).Conclusion The serum Ang-2 level is suggested to be a valuable gastric cancer marker and conduce to the diagnosis of gastric cancer,the monitoring of recurrence after operation and evaluation of prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the protein expression changes in the retina of non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) in rats.Methods:The rat NAION (rNAION) model was established by Rose Bengal and laser. Twenty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups, the normal control group, the laser control group, the RB injection control group, and the rNAION model group, with 5 rats in each group. The right eye was used as the experimental eye. The retina was dissected at the third day after modeling. Enzyme digestion method was used for sample preparation and data collection was performed in a non-dependent collection mode. The data were quantitatively analyzed by SWATH quantitative mass spectrometry, searching for differential proteins and performing function and pathway analysis.Results:Compared with the other three control groups, a total of 184 differential proteins were detected in the rNAION group (expression fold greater than 1.5 times and P<0.05), including 99 up-regulated proteins and 85 down-regulated proteins. The expressions of glial fibrillary acidic protein, guanine nucleotide binding protein 4, laminin 1, 14-3-3γ protein YWHAG were increased. Whereas the expressions of Leucine-rich glioma-inactivated protein 1, secretory carrier-associated membrane protein 5, and Clathrin coat assembly protein AP180 were decreased. The differential proteins are mainly involved in biological processes such as nerve growth, energy metabolism, vesicle-mediated transport, the regulation of synaptic plasticity, apoptosis and inflammation. Pathway enrichment analysis showed that PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and complement and thrombin reaction pathway was related to the disease. Conclusion:The protein expressions of energy metabolism, nerve growth, synaptic vesicle transport and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway can regulate the neuronal regeneration and apoptosis in NAION.
