OBJECTIVETo assess the clinical effectiveness of volar and radial column approach by plate fixation for the treat- ment of unstable fracture of distal radius.
METHODSAccording to Cochrane Systematic Review, Medline, Embase, Cochrane Li- brary, CNKI and CBM, randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of volar and radial column approach by plate fixation for the treat- ment of unstable fracture of distal radius were searched for from 1966 to 2014. Data analysis was performed with the Cochrane Collaboration's RevMan 5.0 software.
RESULTSTotally 391 patients of 6 RCTs and 2 retrospective cohort studys were included and divided into volar plate group (187 cases) and radial column plate group (204 cases). Meta-analysis result showed: compared with radial column plate group, volar plate group had significant difference in recovery of wrist function [SMD = 0.74, 95% CI (0.47, 1.01), P < 0.00001], Gartland-Werley scores [SMD = -1.39, 95% CI (-2.24, -0.53), P = 0.001], postoperative neural in- jury [OR = 3.67, 95% CI (1.37, 9.84), P = 0.01 1 and postoperative wrist pain [OR = 0.32, 95% CI (0.13, 0.74), P = 0.008]. But no significant difference was identified in DASH scores [SMD = -0.36, 95% CI (-0.97, 0.26), P = 0.25], radiographic result assess- ment [SMD = -0.18, 95% CI (-0.53, 0.16), P = 0.3], postoperative grip strength [SMD = 0.71, 95% CI (-0.12, 1.54),P = 0.09], postoperative tendinous damage [OR = 0.31, 95% CI (0.10, 0.98), P = 0.05] and carpal tunnel syndrome [OR = 0.96, 95% CI (0.63, 1.48), P = 0.87].
CONCLUSIONCompared with radial column plate internal fixation, volar approach plate fixation for treat- ment of distal radius intra-articular fracture has advantage of recovery of joint functionand. However, the volar approach plate fix- ation was associated with a higher risk of long-term complications than the radial column approach plate fixation.

piRNA(Piwi-interacting RNA) is a novel class of small single strand RNA that were recently isolated from testes of the mammals, associate with PIWI proteins, and are organized into distinct genomic clusters. These RNAs are typically 30 nt long, strikingly different from microRNAs in their length, expression pattern, and genomic organization. piRNA has a role in RNA silencing via the formation of an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) with Piwi proteins, these piRNA complexes (piRCs) have been linked to transcriptional gene silencing of retrotransposons and other genetic elements in germ line cells, particularly those in spermatogenesis.Recent researches and progresses of piRNAs are reviewed.

Objective: To observe the therapeutic efficacy of acupoint application at different groups of acupoints in treating bronchial asthma in remission stage. Methods:A total of 120 patients with bronchial asthma in remission stage were recruited and divided by the random number table method into acupoint application group 1, acupoint application group 2 and acupoint application group 3, with 40 cases in each group. In all the three groups, Tiantu (CV 22), Dazhui (GV 14) and Feishu (BL 13) were selected, with Dingchuan (EX-B 1) added in acupoint application group 1, Shenshu (BL 23) added in acupoint application group 2, and Gaohuang (BL 43) added in acupoint application group 3. Before intervention, one month and 3 months after intervention, clinical symptoms, peak expiratory flow (PEF) andforced expiratory volume in 1 second percentage of predicted value (FEV1%) of the three groups were observed, and their clinical efficacies were evaluated. Results: Comparing the therapeutic efficacy regarding traditional Chinese medicine symptoms and signs, after 1-month treatment, the total effective rate was 87.5% in acupoint application group 1, versus 62.5% in acupoint application group 2 and 55.0% in acupoint application group 3, and the between-group differences were statistically significant. After 3-month treatment, the total effective rate was 95.0% in acupoint application group 1, versus 70.0% in acupoint application group 2 and 65.0% in acupoint application group 3, and the between-group differences were statistically significant. After intervention, the three groups all showed significant improvements in pulmonary function with statistical significance; among the three groups, the improvement in acupoint application group 1 was more significant than that in the other two groups. Conclusion: Tiantu (CV 22), Dazhui (GV 14) and Feishu (BL 13) as basic prescription plus Dingchuan (EX-B 1) can improve symptoms of bronchial asthma in remission stage, and it works better in improving pulmonary function than the basic prescription plus Shenshu (BL 23) or Gaohuang (BL 43).

To investigate the characteristics of large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (BK(Ca)) and the effect of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on BK(Ca) in guinea-pig proximal colon smooth muscle cells, single smooth muscle cells of guinea-pig colon were enzymatically isolated in low calcium solution containing papain (3 mg/mL), DTT (2 mg/mL), and bovine serum albumin (BSA, 2 mg/mL). Tissues were incubated at 36 degrees C in enzyme solution for 15 min and were then suspended in enzyme-free low calcium solution. Inside-out single channel recording technique was used to record BK(Ca) current. The intracellular (bath) and microelectrode solution both contained symmetrical high potassium. The BK(Ca) in guinea-pig colon smooth muscle cell possesses: 1) voltage-dependence, 2) high selectivity for potassium ion, 3) large conductance (223.7 pS+/-9.2 pS), 4) dependence of [Ca(2+)](i). Intracellular application of H2O2 decreased the open probability (P(o)) of BK(Ca) at low concentration (=1 mmol/L), and increased or decreased P(o) of BK(Ca) at high concentration (5 mmol/L), without affecting the unitary conductance. The effects of H2O2 were reversed by reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT). Similarly, cysteine specific oxidizing agent, DTNB, also increased or decreased P(o) of BK(Ca) and DTT partially reversed the effect of DTNB. It is thus suggested that H2O2 and DTNB may modulate P(o) of BK(Ca) via the oxidation of cysteine residue.

To explore the correlation between the ecological factors and the contents of podophyllotoxin and total lignans in root and rhizome of Sinopodophyllum hexandrum, podophyllotoxin in 87 samples (from 5 provinces) was determined by HPLC and total lignans by UV. A correlation and regression analysis was made by software SPSS 16.0 in combination with ecological factors (terrain, soil and climate). The content determination results showed a great difference between podophyllotoxin and total lignans, attaining 1.001%-6.230% and 5.350%-16.34%, respective. The correlation and regression analysis by SPSS showed a positive linear correlation between their contents, strong positive correlation between their contents, latitude and annual average rainfall within the sampling area, weak negative correlation with pH value and organic material in soil, weaker and stronger positive correlations with soil potassium, weak negative correlation with slope and annual average temperature and weaker positive correlation between the podophyllotoxin content and soil potassium.
