0.1), the results suggested that the stiffness of resistant torque of ITBW was similar to that of CW. In the bending test, in order to give rise to the fragmental displacement of 2.30? induced by bending load, the bending force of 3.3Nm was needed in ITBW fixation, and was 1.9 Nm greater than CW fixation, so stiffness resistant to bending of ITBW was 2.3 times of that of CW. The patients were followed up from 6 to 78 months, with an average of 38 months. There were no complications of nerve and vessels injury, infection and wire or nails loosening. Varus elbow happened in 2 cases, the mean varus angel was less than 5?. 2 cases and All the cases treated with ITBW healed uneventfully with good functions, there were excellent 32 cases and good 12 cases according to the Flynn evaluation system. Conclusion The fixation effect of ITBW is much better than that of CW. The stability provided by ITBW makes external fixation unnecessary and allows for early mobilization of the elbow. The ITBW technique is in satisfactory agreement with biomechanical principle. It is valuable for widely clinical application.

Objective To investigate whether expression quantity of HLA-B27 and its subtypes associated with incidence of AS,the gene expression of HLA-B27 and its subtypes were detected in patients with AS.Methods 120 cases patients sus-pected with AS and 50 healthy subjects were enrolled in the study.Main demographic and clinical characteristics of the sub-jects were collected.Meanwhile total RNA was isolated from peripheral blood and real time RT-PCR was used to measure the quantitative expression of HLA-B27 gene.Besides RT-PCR,sequence-based typing (SBT)method was used to confirm the HLA-B27 subtype.All experimental data were analyzed by SPSS17.0 software and P values <0.05 were considered to be significant.Results Firstly,there were 55 subjects were finally diagnosed as AS patients among the 120 patients suspec-ted with AS.There were 53 subjects whose HLA-B27 was positive (96.36%)in 55 patients with AS.It showed that there was a correlation between BASDAI and expression quantity of HLA-B27 gene (r=0.845,P =0.000).Five subtypes were found and which were HLA-B27∶04 subtype (29/53,54.72%),HLA-B27:05 subtype (20/53,37.74%),HLA-B27 ∶02 subtype (2/53,3.77%),HLA-B27∶03 subtype (1/53,1.89%)and HLA-B27∶07 subtype (1/53,1.89%),respectively. Among the 50 healthy subjects,there were only one kind of subtype (2/50,4%),which was HLA-B27∶04.There were no statistical difference in the age (t=0.711,P =0.480),sex (χ2 =0.880,P =0.348),family history (χ2 =0.011,P =0.916) and treatment (χ2 =0.113,P =0.736)between the HLA-B27∶04 and HLA-B27∶05 subtypes.Conclusion HLA-B27∶04 and HLA-B27∶05 were primary subtypes in AS patients which HLA-B27 positive.There was a correlation between gene expression quantity of HLA-B27 and AS disease activity index.

Myeloid derived suppressor cells(MDSCs) are a subpopulation of immunosuppressive innate immune cells derived from bone marrow stem cells,which negatively regulate immune response in tumor progression.MDSCs have a powerful suppressive function and significant heterogeneity.They can modulate innate and adaptive immune responses through a variety of mechanisms to promote the development of tumor,and also facilitate angiogenesis and metastasis of tumor via non immunologic mechanisms.In recent years,as increasingly mature research for the differentiation,proliferation and suppressive function of MDSCs,the derived researches of MDSC-targeted tumor immunotherapy will finally contribute to increasing the efficiency of vaccine and tumor therapy in the future.
