Construction of 3D-model of bone and joint with the digital reconstruction technology, combination of 3D-display with detailed clinical cases, individual studying of knowledge, and fracture models performed by three dimensional printing, all have enhanced the students' understanding of the basics knowledge of orthopaedic trauma and accelerated the process of its joining into clinical practice. Related software has been used to realize the virtual design of fracture reduction and fixation and based on it, students have been guided to personally involve in the development and realization of surgical simulation program on a personal computer, thus improving students' capabilities of analysis, diagnosis and treatment of illness. Besides, students have been actively guided to use digital technology to conduct the finite ele-ment analysis of posterior malleolar fractures and calcaneus fractures , and to produce APP software for mobile devices such as ankle fracture classification and function scoring , which has aroused students' in-terest of clinical research and innovation.

Objective To observe the effect of Valpar 4 system on hand injury. Methods 40 patients with hand injury were randomly divided into control group and observation group with 20 patients in each group. Routine treatment was applied in both groups while Valpar 4 system was added in the observation group. Then total active motion (TAM) of finger joints, Disability of Arm Shoulder and Hand (DASH), and Upper Extremity Function Test (UEFT) were carried out before, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after treatment. Results The TAM improved significantly in the control group 2 weeks after treatment (P<0.001). The TAM, DASH and UEFT improved significantly in the observation group (P<0.001), and the DASH and UEFT were better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.001). 4 weeks after treatment, the TAM and UEFT improved significantly (P<0.001) in the control group, the TAM, DASH, UEFT significantly improved in the observation group (P<0.001), and were better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Valpar 4 system can effectively improve the TAM of fingers, function of hands and upper limb, especially in terms of activities of daily living of upper limbs.

The study is aimed to confirm the silencing efficiency of the vector in human hepatocellular liver carcinoma cell line (HepG2), and observe effects of AMPKgamma silencing on the AMPK stimulating activity and lipid synthesis of cordycepin (CCS), a natural product with known AMPK activating function. The downregulating efficacy of siRNAs on AMPKgamma expression was confirmed in our previous study. The double stranded shRNA Oligo was ligated to lentivirus vector and verified by sequencing. The lentiviral which can effectively inhibited protein expression levels of AMPKgamma was selected by Western blotting, and the regulation of CCS on protein expression of AMPKgamma and p-AMPK in AMPKgamma silence cells were detected by Western blotting analysis. The lipid accumulation in cells was observed by Oil-Red O stain and cells were collected for the estimation of cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG). The results showed that the lentiviral vector carrying a shRNA targeting the AMPKgamma gene was successfully constructed. Western blotting analysis confirmed that GR085 had the highest interfering efficiency. Treatment with CCS can significantly increase the levels of phospho-AMPK in normal cells, and the level of TC, TG was reduced, but in AMPKgamma silence cells the effects of CCS on AMPK activation and lipid synthesis were almost completely abolished without changing the expression levels of total AMPK or AMPKgamma protein. In conclusion, the AMPKgamma gene may be related to AMPK activation and intracellular lipids regulation by CCS.

Objective To observe the effects of casein and excessive iodine on histomorphalogY and ultrastructure of mouse thymicL Methods Based on 2 × 3 factorial design,the experimental mice were divided into 6 groupg Animal models were estabhshed by feeding the mice with different levels of iodine water and casein food.The levels of iodine were 50,600 μg/L in drinking water and 0(Ⅰ),10%(Ⅱ),20%(Ⅲ)of casein in food respectively.After 12 months,the thyroid weight was measured and the morphology of thyroid was observed under optical and electron microscope.Results Factorial analysis showed that iodine factors obviously affected the thyroid absolute and relative weiights of mice(F=16.23,9.47,P＜0.01),and there was interaction between casein and iodine(F=5.29,4.68,P＜0.01 or＜0.05).Compared wiht 150Ⅰ[(5.91±0.82)rag,(117.0±22.2)mg/kg]and 50Ⅲ[(4.90±0.63)rag,(106.1±13.3)mg/kg]groups.thyroid absolute and relative weights of the mice increased in 600 Ⅰ[(7.60±2.40)mg,(143.3±43.2)mg/kg]and 600Ⅲ[(8.63±1.88)mg,(166.2±39.4)mg/kg]groups(P＜0.05 or＜0.01),respectively.But compared with 600 Ⅰ and 600Ⅲ groups.they were reduced obviously in 600Ⅱ[(5.76±1.13)mg,(109.8±16.5)mg/kg]group(P＜0.05 or＜O.01).Colloid goiter,lymphocyte infiltration were found,some of the follicles epithelial cells appeared active under light and electron microscope in iodine excels group,which,however,decreased obviously along with the increase of casein dose.Conclusions Long-term excessive iodine may cause colloid goiter and inflammation injury of mice,possibly leading the development of thyroiditis in mice,which may be partly reduced by casein.

OBJECTIVE Respiratory depression hinders the use of anaesthetics and sedative hyp-notics.To explore the mechanism of LCX001 on protection against respiratory depression,a novel AMPA receptor modulator LCX001,synthesized by our Institute of Medicinal Chemistry,is expected to relieve suppressed respiration. METHODS LCX001 was tested to alleviate respiratory depression triggered by opioid(fentanyl and TH-030418),propofol and pentobarbital in the plethysmography recording.The acetic acid writhing and hot-plate tests were conducted to evaluate analgesic effect of LCX001.Binding assay and whole-cell recording were used to analyze the property of LCX001 on positive modulation. The function of AMPA receptors were determined by location of receptors in the membrane and state of channel opening, and both processes were impressed by AMPA receptor regulatory proteins. Ac-cording to the theory,the effect of LCX001 on the expression of stargazin was measured firstly by west-ern blotting. The variation of receptor surface location was observed by live cell imaging. The regula-tion on neuronal Ca2+and cell function was investigated intensively by Ca2+imaging to clarify mecha-nism of LCX001. RESULTS LCX001 effectively rescued and prevented opioid (fentanyl and TH-030418), propofol, and pentobarbital-induced respiratory depression by strengthening respiratory fre-quency and minute ventilation in rats. The acetic acid writhing test and hot-plate test revealed potent anti-nociceptive efficacy of LCX001,in contrast to some ampakines that did not affect analgesia. Fur-thermore,LCX001 potentiated[3H]AMPA and L-glutamate binding affinity to AMPA receptors,and facili-tated glutamate-evoked inward currents in HEK293 cells stably expressing GluA2(R).Importantly,appli-cation of LCX001 generated a significant increase in GluA2(R) surface expression in a mechanism of stargazin up-regulation,and restrained opioid-induced abnormal intracellular Ca2+load,which might par-ticipate in breathing modulation. CONCLUSION The novel pharmacological effect and potential new mechanism of LCX001 might promote ampakines to be a therapeutic option for protection against respi-ratory depression.
