Objective To compare the effect of scapula lateral margin approach and standard Judet approach in the operative treatment of scapular fracture. Methods Medical data of 48 patients with scapular fractures from January 2006 to February 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into the observation group and the control group according to the surgical approach. 27 patients in the observation group were treated with operative treatment through scapula lateral margin approach and 21 patients in the control group were treated with sur-gical treatment through standard Judet approach. Compared the clinical effects and complications of the patients in two groups. Results To operation time and intraoperative hemorrhage in the observation group were less than that of the control group (P<0. 05),fracture healing time was shorter than that of the control group after operation (P<0. 05). Six months after operation,the excellent rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group. Scores of daily activities and myodynamia in the observation group were higher than that of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0. 05),and there was no significant difference in the scores of pain and joint motion between the groups(P>0. 05). Conclusion Scapula lateral margin approach in treatment of scapular fracture has the advanta-ges of easy operation,small trauma,definite effect,little complication and it can be used as the preferred scheme of scapular fracture operative treatment.

Objective To analyse the clinical manifestations of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP) with 23SrRNA A2063G gene mutation,and improve the ability of diagnosis and treatment of patient infected with MPP.Methods MP-DNA was detected by fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR in sputum specimens from 36 children with MPP,then we detected the drug resistance gene mutation sites by nest-PCR and DNA sequencing,on this basis we classified into two groups of macrolide-resistant MP and macrolide-sensitive MP,and compared the clinical manifestations,laboratory findings,chest imagings and treatment between two groups.Results Of these 36 cases of MPP,24 cases had macrolide-resistant gene mutation with an A2063G transition in domain V of the 23SrRNA,12 cases had no macrolide-resistant gene mutation.Compared to macrolide-sensitive MP group,macrolide-resistant MP group had longer hospitalization duration,longer total cough period,longer total febrile period,longer fever duration after macrolide therapy,longer course of disease,and had higher white blood cells counts and CRP.In the macrolide-resistant MP group,the temperature subsided within 5 days after macrolide treatment alone of 12 cases,3 cases needed switch to fluoroquinolones therapy,10 cases combined with glucocorticoids and 6 cases combined with intravenous immunoglobulin,all 24 patients had good outcomes.While in macrolide-sensitive MP group,the temperature susided between 12 hours to 3 days after macrolide treatment of 8 cases.Conclusions Compared to patients infected by macrolide-sensitive MP,those mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia patients with 23SrRNA A2063G gene mutation have longer hospitalization duration,longer total cough period,longer total febrile period,longer fever duration after macrolide therapy,longer course of disease,and have higher white blood cells counts and CRP.Some macrolide-resistant MPP patients have good response to macrolide antibiotics treatment,while the severe cases need combined with glucocorticoids and immunoglobulin,or should change antibiotics.

AIM: To investigate the effect of silymarin on homocysteine-induced cell viability and apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). METHODS: Cell viability was analyzed by using MTT and LDH assay. Apoptotic cells were detected by using DNA fragmentation and flow cytometric analysis. The level of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the potential of mitochondrial membrane were determined by flow cytometric assay. The activity of caspase-3, -6 and -9 were measured with microplate spectrofluorometer. Protein levels were examined by Western blotting. RESULTS: Treatment of cultured HUVECs with HCY for 48 h induced a significant decrease in cell viability, and the percentage of apoptosis increased to 76.8%. The level of intracellular ROS and activity of caspase-3, -6 and -9 enhanced, and the red/green ratios of mitochondrial membrane decreased. However, simultaneous treatment with silymarin exhibited cytoprotective effects, reduced formation of the DNA ladder, prevented the levels of Bax and Bcl-2 proteins and the accumulation of ROS as well as caspase-3, -6 and -9 activation, reconverted the potential of mitochondrial membrane, and the percentage of apoptosis/necrosis was significantly decreased to 12.7% in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that silymarin has the protective capacity to antagonize HCY-induced apoptosis in HUVECs. The antiapoptotic action of silymarin may be partially dependent on an anti-oxidative stress effects, inhibition of caspases activity, and maintenance of mitochondria function.
