Objective To report the clinical results of the treatment of subtrochanteric fractures of the femur with reconstruction intramedullary nails. Methods 51 cases of femoral subtrochanteric fractures were treated with reconstruction intramedullary nails in our department in the period from January 1997 to June 2003. Among them 9 cases belonged to Russell Taylor type ⅠA, 26 ⅠB, 2 ⅡA, and 14 ⅡB. 34 patients sustained high energy injury, and 17 low energy one. 17 cases had some complicated injuries. 5 cases were open fractures. Results The mean follow up of 18.5 (3 36) months revealed that fractures healed in all the 51 cases. The clinical healing time of the fracture averaged 13.5 (8 26) weeks after surgery. The functional evaluation was done by Sanders traumatic hip rating scale. The good and excellent rate was 94.11%(48/51). Three elderly patients experienced hip pain after surgery. There were no infection,varus deformity and implant breakage. Conclusion The Russell Taylor reconstruction intramedullary nail can be used to treat all kinds of femoral subtrochanteric factures with good results, high union rate and rare complications.

BACKGROUND:Studies have found that smal intestinal submucosa that is directly implanted into the lesion cannoteffectively promote celgrowth and differentiationin vivoandin vitro, because of its smal pore size and poor permeability.
OBJECTIVE:To establish the smal intestinal submucosa sponge and to explore its morphological characteristics.
METHODS:Porcinesmall intestinal submucosa was prepared by physiochemical method. Thenthe small intestinal submucosa with the mass fraction of 1%, 2%, 3% and 4% was cross-linked by 50, 100 and150 mmol/L 1-ehyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodimide hydrochloride, respectively, so as to obtain smal intestinal submucosa sponge, whose morphology was detected by lighting and scanning electron microscope. In the meanwhile, smal intestinal submucosa as control group, and smal intestinal submucosa sponge as test groupwere intramuscularly implanted into the back of rats,respectively. At 1, 2 and 3 weeks after implantation, histological changes andimplantdegradation were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The smal intestinal submucosa sponge, which was prepared by the smal intestinal submucosa with the mass fraction of 1% and 100 mmol/L cross-linking agent, had elastic and close space structure, uniform pore size and regular structure, so it was selected as the implant into themuscle.At 1 week after implantation, in the test group,the mesh sponge had the complete structure withfew neutrophils, lymphocytes and giant cel reaction, andsoft tissue hyperplasia and migration surrounding the implant appeared;in the control group,there were numerous inflammatory cels, and wound adhesion and little migration of surrounding tissues could be found.At 3 weeks, inflammatory cels mostly disappeared, and fibroblast-like cels and vascular components appeared, with thinner and regular colagen fiber bundles, and connective tissue-like structures could be found. In contrast, the control group stil had numerous inflammatory cels and few colagen fibers. In conclusion, smal intestinal submucosa sponge isapotential material used asthe tissue-engineered skinscaffold.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of uvulopalatopharyngoplasty with uvula preservation and radiofrequency tongue base reduction for obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).
METHODSForty six patients with OSAHS were enrolled. One group (n = 22) of patients only received uvulopalatopharyngoplasty with uvula preservation, while the other group (n = 24) had both uvulopalatopharyngoplasty with uvula preservation and radiofrequency tongue base reduction. Polysomnography and distance between anterior pillars (DBAP), distance between posterior pillars (DBPP), length of roft palate, distance between tongue base and posterior pharyngeal wall (DBTP) were measured before and 6 months after surgery.
RESULTSThe pre-operation apnea hypopnea index (AHI), x +/- s, lowest SaO2 (LSaO2) of first group were (56. 5 +/- 6. 0)/h, and 0.626 +/- 0.060 respectively, and 6 months after surgery, AHI was (23.7 +/- 2.7)/h, LSaO2 was 0.797 +/- 0.053. The pre-operation AHI, LSaO2 of second group were (58.4 +/- 5.1)/h, and 0.650 +/- 0.057 respectively, and 6 months after surgery, AHI was (15.5 +/- 3.2)/h, LSaO2 was 0.864 +/- 0.064. After surgery AHI and LSaO2 have changed in both groups (P<0.001). Six months after operation, DBAP and DBPP became withy, length of soft palate became short (P<0. 001). In one group the validity ratio is 72.7% (16/22), the other group the validity ratio is 87.5% (21/24) (P< 0.05), and pharyngeal posterior airway width (PPAW) became withy (P <0.001).
CONCLUSIONSFor OSAHS patients, the obstructive regions should be evaluated. The combined surgery of uvulopalatopharyngoplasty with uvula preservation and radiofrequency tongue base reduction could have a better result.

Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of SDF-1/CXCR4 in the development of chronic rejection (CR) in rat models.Methods CR rat models were established using Fisher 344 to Lewis rats.In the blank control group (n=10),Lewis rats getting isotransplantation were treated with Cyclosporine A.CR rat models were established in positive group (n=10) and the rats were treated with Cyclosporine A.CR rat models were also established in CXCR4 antagonism group (n=10) and the rats were treated with both Cyclosporine A and AMD3100 (1 mg/kg).The serum creatinine levels were monitored every week.Kidney grafts were harvested 12 weeks after transplantation for histological analysis.We evaluated graft injuries using chronic allograft damage index (CADI) scores.Q-PCR and Western blotting were used to measure CXCR4,TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression in renal allograft tissues.Results The serum creatinine levels in blank control group and CXCR4 antagonism group were significantly lower than those in positive control group (P<0.05).The blank control group and CXCR4 antagonism group presented milder pathological manifestations of CR.The CADI score in CXCR4 antagonism group was 3.54,which was lower than that of positive control group (P<0.05).The expression of biological markers in TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway and SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway was significantly lower in blank control group and CXCR4 antagonism group than in positive control group (P<0.05).Conclusion SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway may play a crucial role in the development of CR.The usage of SDF-1/CXCR4 antagonist can protect renal allograft by inhibiting the TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway.Therefore,antagonism of CXCR4 may provide a novel way to prevent the development of CR.
