Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) on wound healing of perianal absceess after operation.Methods 80 patients who received operation of perianal absceess were selected.The patients were randomly divided into the study group(n=40) and control group(n=40).All the patients underwent the treatment of anal abscess incision and drainage.The patients in the control group were disinfected routinely and treated by metronidazole,while the patients in the study group were treated by rhEGF after disinfection of saline.All patients were followed up for one month after surgery.The wound edema score,granulation growth and the healing time of the wound were recorded.Results One month after surgery,the wound edema score in the study group was less than that in the control group at any time.After 2 weeks and 4 weeks,the wound edema scores in the study group were (1.41±0.33)points,(0.54±0.11)points,which were significantly lower than (2.09±0.28)points,(1.37±0.16)points in the control group (t=9.937,27.036,all P<0.001).After 2 weeks and 4 weeks,the granulation growth scores in the study group were (1.71±0.38)points,(0.81±0.16)points,which were significantly lower than(2.16±0.38)points,(1.66±0.21)points in the control group (t=5.296,20.363,P<0.001).The healing time of the wound in the study group was (19.52±1.47)d,which was less than (25.49±1.75)d in the control group (t=16.521,P<0.05).Conclusion The rhEGF can distinctly promote wound healing and shorten the healing time of perianal absceess after operation,which is worthy of the clinical promotion.

BACKGROUND:Tamoxifen has been found to exert neuroprotection by reducing cerebral hemorrhage and edema surrounding the injured site of the spinal cord.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of tamoxifen on rat acute spinal cord injury and the underlying mechanism.
METHODS:Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were equivalently randomized into five groups, and modeled into spinal cord injury at T10 level using modified Al en’s weight-drop method (70 g/cm), except those in sham operation group. At 30 minutes after modeling, al rats were given the intraperitoneal injection of 2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg/kg tamoxifen or same amount of normal saline, once daily. Basso, Beattie, Bresnahan (BBB) scores were recorded at 24, 48 and 72 hours after surgery. The injured spinal cord was removed at 72 hours to observe its edema. Meanwhile, the levels of interleukin-1β, interleukin-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α, as wel as Caspase-3 activity were detected by ELISA;the protein levels of nuclear factor-κB p65, phosphorylated I-κBαand Caspase-3 were detected by western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model group, the hind limb function in the tamoxifen groups was significantly improved. Tamoxifen significantly decreased the water content in the rat spinal cord and inhibited spinal cord edema at 72 hours after surgery. ELISA results showed that tamoxifen significantly reduced the activity of interleukin-1β, interleukin-10, tumor necrosis factor-αand Caspase-3 (P<0.05). Western blot assay revealed that tamoxifen significantly downregulated the expression levels of nuclear factor-κB p65, phosphorylated I-κBαand Caspase-3. These results suggest that tamoxifen protects against spinal cord injury via suppressing inflammatory response and apoptosis-associated proteins.

Chondroblastoma of the patella, rare occurred in patellar,is a kind of an uncommon benign bone tumor. Compared with giant cell tumor, the morbidity of chondroblastoma is lower. Meanwhile, its clinical manifestations are various, and images are very complicated. Therefore, the understanding of this kind of tumors may be limited even to the orthopedist. The differences of patellar chondroblastoma between other tumor in X-ray, CT and MRI is a spot in recent years. Sometimes patellar chondroblastoma coexists with aneurysmal bone cyst, which is a challenge to obtain an accurate pathological and radiological diagnosis. For the treatment, curettage and bone grafting is one the most popular method, but whether to perform a biopsy before surgery still remain controversy. Some new technique still has an unknown prospect for the treatment such as radiofrequency ablation.

BACKGROUND:Nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 is a new nanobionic composite material and has good biocompatibility and bone conduction, but after implantation, whether the composite material can bind to vertebral bone interface and whether it is safe in clinical use stil need further studies. OBJECTIVE: To observe the ability of nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide composite binding to the interface of artificial humeral head. METHODS: The rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: composite group was implanted with nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide composites; control group implanted with autologous bone. After the replacement, rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were subjected to primary culture, and then the cels were co-cultured with the composite material. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 24 hours after culture, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels grew wel on the composite materials. The cel adhesion rate was significantly higher in the composite group than the control group at 1 and 4 hours after culture (P < 0.05). After co-culture 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 hours, the absorbance value of cels in the composite group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). At 24 weeks after replacement, changing ranges in the proportions of bone tissue and fibrous layers on the implant surface as wel as coverage rate in the composite group were the highest (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that the nano-hydroxyapatite/ polyamide composite implant has a certain binding capacity, which can make a good interface osseointegration.
