Objective To investigate the effectiveness of implantation of homologous cancellous and autologous red marrow under endoscope in the treatment of traumatic bone nonunion or bone defect.MethodsTotally 25 patients with traumatic bone nonunion or bone defect were enrolled in this study.The lesion involved the tibia bone in 9 cases,the femur in 13,and the humerus in 3.The grafts were sized 1 to 6 cm in length(mean,2.7 cm).Before the implantation of the cancellous bones,the scar fibrous tissues within the nonunion were removed completely by endoscopy,and then autologous red marrow obtained from the iliac crest was injected.ResultsAll the patients were followed up for 12 to 36 months(mean,25 months).The surgical wounds healed primarily in all of the cases without injuries to the blood vessels and nerves.Bony union was achieved within 4 to 9 months(mean,5.1 months) in 23 of the patients,the other 2 failed because of breaking and loosing of internal fixators.No patient developed re-nonunion and infection.ConclusionsImplantation of homologous cancellous and autologous red marrow under endoscope is effective for traumatic bone nonunion or bone defect with a low rate of complication and high rate of bony union.Since no need to harvest the ilium bone,the method is minimally invasive for the patients.

50% was seen in 7 cases after TACE and PEI(30%),and the 1?3?5 year′s survival rate was 52%?35%? and 9%,respectively.Conclusions Adjuvant chemotherapy was hardly beneficial to the treatment of liver cancer with parasitic blood supply after TACE, while PEI enhanced effect of TACE as a supplementary therapy as judged by long term survival. The change of sIL-2R, AFP level was a sensitive indicator for the outcome of the treatment.

Objective To determine enterobacteria DNA load in venous blood of febrile surgical patients using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR), to study the correlations between DNA load and vital signs/blood cell count, and to compare the difference between different detection methods in terms of positive rates.Methods A total of 72 blood samples were obtained for bacterial cuhure and RQ-PCR.The correlations of enterobacteria DNA load with body temperature, heart rate, while blood cell count,and percentages of leukocyte and lymphocyte were then analyzed.Results The enterobacteria positive rate determined by RQ-PCR (63.89%) was significantly higher than that by bacterial culture (9.72%) (F =4.383, P =0.036).The DNA load was significantly correlated with both body temperature and heart rate (P =0.006, r =0.323;P =0.000, r =0.411), but not with white blood cell count, percentages of leukocyte and lymphocyte, and age (P=0.438, r=0.093;P=0.825, r=0.027;P=0.451, r=-0.090;P =0.096, r =0.198).Conclusions RQ-PCR can quickly determine the enterobacteria DNA load in peripheral blood with high sensitivity.Routine blood cell count may not accurately reflect the enterobacteria DNA load in blood.Body temperature and heart rate may be influenced by various factors.

Objective To evaluate the CT and MRI imaging features of primary ventricular lymphoma ,so as to provide a reference for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease .Methods The clinical data and imaging findings of primary ventricular lymphoma in one case was retrospectively analyzed with literature review and compared with primary lymphoma in parenchymal brain .Results Slightly high density tumor presented with regular shape in the trigone of lateral ventricles on CT findings , and slightly low signal intensity on T 1 and slightly high signal intensity on T 2 appeared on MRI findings with small cystic necrosis in tumour .An enhancement scan showed obviously enriched, and there was perilesional edema.After 14 day’s dehydration treatment, rechecked indicated that the lesions were significantly en-larged, the shape were irregula , the area of cystic necrosis was enlarged , heterogeneous enhanced scanning were enhanced , perilesional ede-ma became more heavier , and the imaging feature of “closed fist” appeared .It was proved to be diffuse large B cell lymphoma with surgical pathologic examination , and there was no lymphoma in other regions of the body with whole body PET-CT examination , which was clinically diagnosed as primary ventricular lymphoma .Conclusion Primary ventricular lymphoma is rarely reported ,and it has similar imaging mani-festations with primary lymphoma in parenchymal brain .The combination of multiple imaging modalities will be helpful to diagnosis and dif -ferential diagnosis for the suspected patients .

Objective To assess the nutritional risk of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Methods The nutritional status of 112 IBD patients from PUMC Hospital were evaluated by Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002).Using Chinese standard,a body mass index (BMI) that was lowered than 18.5 kg/m~2 according to clinical material was regarded as malnutrition,and the score was recorded as 3.The se-verity of ulcerative colitis (UC) was evaluated using True-Love criteria as mild,moderate,and severe.Crohn's disease (CD) was evaluated using Harvey-Bradshaw Index as in remission stage (≤4),moderately active stage (4-8),and severely actively stage (≥9).Results All these 112 patients,including 70 UC cases and 42 CD cases,were evaluated by NRS2002.Forty-five patients (40.2%) were judged as at the risk of malnutrition.The incidence of malnutrition was significantly higher in CD patients than in UC patients (52.4% vs.32.9%,P<0.05).It was also significantly correlated with the severity of disease.In patients with severe IBD,the rate of mal-nutrition evaluated by BMI according to clinical material was significantly lower than the rate of nutritional risk.Con-clusions The risk of malnutrition is high in IBD patients.NRS 2002 can be used for nutritional risk screening.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided continuous brachial plexus block for analgesia after fixation of upper extremity fractures in the pediatric patients.Methods Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ pediatric patients of both sexes,aged 3-10 yr,weighing 13-46 kg,with body height of 97-152 cm,scheduled for open reduction and internal fixation of distal humeral fractures,were selected and divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:intravenous analgesia group (group Ⅴ) and continuous brachial plexus block group (group B).Surgery was completed under brachial plexus block combined with general anesthesia in the two groups.At the end of surgery,patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was used in group Ⅴ,and continuous brachial plexus block was performed with 0.1% ropivacaine 250 ml (background infusion 0.1 ml · kg-1 · h-1,bolus dose 0.2 ml/kg,lockout interval 30 min) in group B.Tramadol was given as rescue analgesic when necessary.Ramsay sedation scores were assessed and recorded at 2,4,8,12,24,36 and 48 h after surgery,and the development of over-sedation was recorded.The require,nent for rescue analgesics and development of respiratory depression,dizziness,nausea and vomiting,pruritus and urinary retention during analgesia were recorded.The development of adverse reactions such as vascular and nerve injury,local hematoma and pneumothorax was recorded in group B.Family's satisfaction with analgesia was assessed and scored.Results Compared with group Ⅴ,Ramsay sedation scores at 2-12 h after surgery,the incidence of oversedation,nausea and dizziness and requirement for tramadol were significantly decreased (P<0.05),and no significant change was found in the degree of family's satisfaction with analgesia in group B (P> 0.05).The adverse reactions such as vascular and nerve injury,local hematoma or pneumothorax were not found in group B.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided continuous brachial plexus block can be safely and effectively used for analgesia after fixation of upper extremity fractures in the pediatric patients.

Objective Establishment and characterization of healthy donor's ??T cell clones.Methods ??T cells were cloned by limiting dilution after positive sorting with 60Co irradiated allogeneic PBMC as feeder cells.Flow cytometry analysis and molecular biology technique were then used to identify ??T cell clones.MTT assay was used to verify their proliferation after incubated with epitope peptides recognized by ??T cells.Results A ??T cell clone had been established.The subtype of this clone was V ?9 V ?2 without expression of CD4 and CD8.Further studies indicated that epitope peptide EP6 could not only specifically bind to ??T cell clone but also trigger the proliferation of ??T cell clone.Conclusion A healthy donor's ??T cell clone was successfully established,which laid a solid foundation for further study on ??T cells.
