ObjectiveTo discuss treatment experiencing in femur periprothetic fracture after hip arthroplasty in pre-, intra- and post-surgery.Methods From March 2005 to May 2011, 27 patients (11 males, 16 females) aged ＞75 years with femur periprothetic fracture after hip replacement were studied. The mean time from primary hip replacement to femur perprosthetic fracture was 63 months(ranging from 7 to 83 months). According to vanconver classification, type A applying steel wire of character for 8 bind technique was 5 cases, type B applying prolonging stem technique locking compress plate (LCP)technique surrounding instrument technique was 19 cases and type C applying bone graft and plate fixation technique was 3 cases. All patients were followed up from 9 to 25 months (average, 16 months). The results of treatment were evaluated by Harris score and X rays. Results Bony heal was obtained in 22 patients and was not obtained in five cases among whom bony heal occurred in 3 cases and 2 patients could only keep prothetic and limb stable after receiving the bone graft once more. Walking was free in 14 cases,9 cases needed assistant walking instrument,and only 4 cases stayed in the bed freely. Harris score for last follow-up was 52 to 93 (mean 76).Conclusions Based on the patient general status, the fracture types and practical and stable principle, the effective methods can get good results in the treatment of femur periprosthetic fracture in aged patient.

Objective To investigate the effects of sulfur dioxide(SO2) pollution in different concentrations on activity of SOD,levels of GSH and MDA in heart and lung tissue of exercised rats,in order to elucidate the toxicological mechanism of SO2 pollution.Methods Forty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into eight groups:a rest group(RG),an exercise group(EG),a low pollution exercise group(LEG),a low pollution rest group(LRG),a moderate pollution exercise group(MEG),a moderate pollution rest group(MRG),a high pollution exercise group(HEG) and a high pollution rest group(HRG).All groups,except RG and EG,were exposed to SO2 with different concentrations(5 mg/m3,10 mg/m3,15 mg/m3),meanwhile exercised rats run in a motor-driven wheel at a speed of 8 m/min,2 h/d for 10 days.Rats were sacrificed at 24 h after treatment and the anti-oxidative enzymes activity and lipid peroxidation(LPO) levels were measured.Results Compared with RG,SOD activity of lung tissue significantly decreased in HEG,MEG,LEG(P

The study on mycoflora in bottled purified d rinking water was carried out.91 Samples of products were colleted from 59 bottl ing factories in Fujian Province and were examined and identified.461 Strains of fungi were isolated from 58(63 74%)different samples.Fungi imperfecti was the e umycetes isolated most frequently.These fungi were not closely related to the ae robic bacterial count and coliform of the studied waters but was clearly associa ted with the packaging of the products.The result confirmed that the cross conta minations on the process of post-purification were the main source of fungi in the final products.

Objective To explore the nursing measures of patients with pure diffuse axonal injury (DAI)treated by multi-step sub-hypothermia therapy.Methods The nursing care of pure DAI patients treated by multi-step sub-hypothermia therapy,which included the traumatic condition evaluation before treatment,the nursing care during treatment,the nursing care after treatment but also in coma,and the nursing care after palinesthesia.Results The intracranial pressure and concentration and lactic acid in blood and cerebrospinal fluid alleviated.The forehead expanded.The disability rating scale(DRS)decreased.While the incidence of sub-hypothermia related complications did not increased.Conclusions The elaborative nursing care aiming at different pathogenetic conditions,different stages is the first guarantee in the treatment of pure DAI with multi-step sub-hypothermia therapy.

Objective To evaluate the effect of antler polypeptides from Cervus elaphus yarkandensis on MC3T3-E1 cells. Methods The concentration of antler polypeptides of Cervus elaphus yarkandensis was measured by BCA protein assay kit. MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured and analyzed by BCIP/NBT chromogenic alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining kit. After being induced to form mineralized knot, the cells were stained by using Alizarin red staining. Three different concentrations (10, 1.0, 0.1 μg/mL) of antler polypeptides were analyzed by MTT method and micronutrients enzymes standard method to determine the effect of cell proliferation and ALP synthesis. Results The concentration of antler polypeptides was 0.07 mg/mL. The results of in vitro cell activity analysis showed that the positive rate of ALP was 90%and the mineralization knot was stained red. Compared with the control group, the different concentrations of antler polypeptides all showed the function of cell proliferation and the effect was dose-dependent after 3 d and 7 d. Compared with the control group, at the 3 d, three groups of antler polypeptides promoted synthesis and secretion of ALP (P<0.01) and the results showed a dose-dependent effect. Conclusion Antler polypeptides could obviously promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells and secretion of ALP, which indicated that antler polypeptides have certain effect on osteoporosis.

Objective To explore the potential risk factors of schistosomiasis transmission so as to provide evidence for setting up the surveillance scheme of schistosomiasis prevention and control. Methods The schistosome infection of local inhabitants, mobile population and stock from endemic areas were investigated from 2002 to 2007 by using IHA or ELISA technique. The historical endemic reports of Chongqing City and the schistosomiasis cases, and the plants imported from schistosomiasis endemic areas and Oncomelania snails were investigated. The behavior of local inhabitants was also investigated. Results The investigated people included 5 112 local inhabitants, 1 455 mobile people from schistosomiasis endemic areas and 1 744 residents returned from the endemic areas. The sero-positive rates of them were 0.57%, 1.44% and 0.86%, respectively. Eighteen cases of imported schistosomiasis were found. There were many plants and stock imported from the schistosomiasis endemic areas. No imported snail was found. The farming of local inhabitants depended on the cattle chiefly. The rate of the harmless lavatories was 14.88%. The local residents had the habit of water contact. Conclusion There are potential risk factors for schistosomiasis transmission in the Three Gorges Reservoir areas. The local residents have potential risk behavior of getting infection of Schistosoma japonicum. The surveillance should be emphasized on the mobile population, imported plants and stock from endemic areas.

BACKGROUND: Few reports concern the effects of dendritic cells-a kind of antigen presenting cells, and interleukin-10 (IL-10) on airway hyperreactivity or inflammation. OBJECTIVE: To construct mice IL-10 recombinant adenovirus vector Ad-mIL-10 to acquire the dendritic cells modified by mIL-10, which can provide a foundation for the further study. METHODS: Mouse IL-10 (mIL-10) gene comprise of enzyme cutting spot was synthesized according to the mIL-10 gene sequence and multiclone spot of adenovirus vector, connected to pMD18-T vector and sequenced. MIL-10 was subcloned to BD Adeno-X~(TM) vector, packed and augmented in HEK 293 cells, following determine the protein expression, and the vector was transfected to mice bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Recombinant adenovirus vector Ad-mIL-10 was successfully synthesized, packed and augmented, which could highly express protein IL-10. Bone marrow-derived dendritic cells were successfully cultured and transduced in vitro. It suggested that it is feasible to transfect mice dendritic cells by Ad-mIL-10 adenovirus vector. The study can provide more sufficient theoretic evidence for the possibility of correlative gene therapy.

ObjectiveTo study the relation ship between progressive cerebral infarction and thyroid hormone level,and analyze the risk factors of progressive cerebral infarction.MethodsThe thyroid hormone,triglyceride esters and fasting glucose levels of 48 patients with progressive cerebral infarction,138 patients with non-progressive cerebral infarction and 60 healthy subjects as control group were measured.ResultsCompared with the patients with non-progressive cerebral infarction,serum T3 of patients with progressive cerebral infarction was lower( P ＜0.05),and the levels of triglyceride ( TG),C-reactive protein ( CRP),and fasting blood glucose were higher ( all P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionPatients with progressive cerebral infarction were in a low level of thyroid hormones,and the increasing levels of TG,CRP,and fasting blood glucose were risk factors for progressive cerebral infarction.
