BACKGROUND:According to the core functional zone of amino acid sequence of the osteoinduction in bone morphogenetic proteins, our research group synthesized bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) active polypeptides Ⅰ and Ⅱ by artificial solid-state synthesis method. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the osteoinductive ability of BMP active polypeptides Ⅰ and Ⅱ in animals. METHODS:Forty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into seven groups, and respectively implanted with hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid carrying 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides I, hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid carrying 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides Ⅱ, and hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid alone. At 3 and 5 weeks postoperatively, X-ray, CT and histological detection were conducted to evaluate osteoinductive conditions in the seven groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 3 and 5 weeks postoperatively, there were better local osteoinductive effects in the groups hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid carrying BMP active polypeptides Ⅰ and Ⅱ than the group of hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid, indicating both two kinds of BMP active polypeptides possessed a certain osteoinductive ability. Moreover, this osteoinductive ability became stronger with time. At 5 weeks postoperatively, the osteoinductive effect in the 0.4 and 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides I groups was better than that in the 0.2 g/L BMP active polypeptides I group and the 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 BMP active polypeptides Ⅱ groups (P < 0.05). In addition, there was no difference in the osteoinductive effect of 0.4 and 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides I groups. These results indicate that BMP active polypeptides I has a stronger osteoinductive ability than BMP active polypeptides Ⅱ.

Objective To evaluate the clinical feasibility of laparoscopic cool-tip radiofrequency ablation (LCRFA)for renal cell carcinoma. Methods Twelve selected cases of primary renal, ceil carcinoma underwent LCRFA. Of them, 4 cases of left renal carcinomas, 7 cases had right renal carci-nomas and 1 case had bilateral renal carcinomas. The maximum diameter of the tumors was 2.1-8. 5 era. Eleven cases were T, No M0 and the other one was T2 N0 M0. Results The mean operation time was 92±24 min, and the mean blood loss was 50±29 ml. None of the cases need blood transfusion post-operation. No laparoscopic operative complications were observed. Six weeks after operation, complete ablation was achieved in 12 lesions and partial ablation in 1, with a complete ablation rate of 92.3%(12/13). There was no statistic change of Hb. ESR. SCr and GFR after operations (P>0.05). Ten cases underwent CT examination 3 months after the treatment ,9 cases showed complete necrosis of tumor,1 case showed partial necrosis. No recurrence was found. All of the 12 cases remained sur-vived during the follow-up for 1-16 months(median,7.8 months). Conelusions LCRFA for renal cell carcinoma is an accurate and effective intervention with a low incidence of complications, and is more accurate than ultrasound-guided pereutaneous radiofrequency ablation.

Objective To evaluate the effectivity and safety of dual antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel and aspirin in patients with ST-segment elevation acute yocardial infarction(AMI).Methods We searched for randomized controlled trials(RCTs)and quasi-RCTs in the following electronic databases:PubMed,EMBASE,The Cochrane Library(Issue 3,2007),CBM,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang.Quality assessment and data extraction were conducted by two reviewers independently.Disagreement were resolved through discussion.All data were analyzed by using Review Manager 4.2. Results Ten studies involving a total of 52 433 participants met the inclusion criteria.Metaanalysis results showed that:(1)Compared with aspirin alone,the incidence rates of death caused by any reason(RR=0.91,95% CI:0.85～0.97),recurrent myocardial infarction(RR=0.80,95% CI:0.72～0.89),stroke(RR=0.81,95% CI:0.68～0.96),post-infarction angina(RR=0.35,95% CI:0.19～0.66),incoronary thrombus(RR=0.73,95% CI:0.64～0.83)and the combined endpoint events of death,reinfarction or stroke(RR=0.89,95% CI:0.84～0.95)could be reduced by clopidogrel and aspirin.(2)There were no significant differences in ameliorating the cardiac function and increasing TIMI blood flow of infarct-related artery between the two groups RR=0.97,95% CI:0.92～1.03;RR=1.14,95% CI:1.00～1.30;both P＞0.05.(3)There was no significant difference in bleeding between the tWO groups(RR=1.11,95% CI:0.92～1.34). Conclusions Compared with aspirin alone,clopidogrel plus aspirin has good effects on reducing the incidence rates of death caused by any reason,recurrent myocardial infarction,stroke,post-infarction angina,incoronary thrombus and the combined endpoint events of death,reinfarction or stroke in patients with ST-segment elevation AMI,and it has the same efficacy in ameliorating the cardiac function,increasing TIMI blood flow of infarct-related artery and bleeding.

Objective To analyze the clinical outcome of concurrent ehemo-radiotherapy in stage Ⅳ non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods From Jan.1997 to Dec.2006,214 patients with patho logically or cytologically proven stage Ⅳ NSCLC were included in this analysis.Of those patients,98 re ceived radiotherapy concurrently with 3-week cycle chemotherapy(group A),18 received radiotherapy con currently with weekly chemotherapy(group B) ,44 received chemotherapy alone,37 received radiotherapy a lone and 13 received sequential chemo-radiotherapy.The primary tumor was treated by three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3DCRT) or conventional radiotherapy with conventional fraefionation or late-course accelerated hyperfraction (LA H RT).Group A received 21-28 days cycle cisplatin-based chemotherapy (cis platin combined with PTX,DTY,NVB or Vp-16) ,and group B received weekly DDP combined with PTX or topteeon for 4-6 weeks.Results The follow-up rate was 99%.The 1-and 2-year overall survival rates of group A,group B,chemotherapy alone,radiotherapy alone and sequential chemo-radiotherapy were 41% and 11% ,16% and 0,31% and 7% ,34% and 10% ,26% and 3% ,respectively(x2 = 11.18,P=0.025).The patients with concurrent 3DCRT,LAHRT and radiotherapy dose≥70 Gy had better survival in group A than those in chemotherapy alone group.Patients who received≥2 cycles chemotherapy with concurrent radio therapy had longer survival time than those who had ≥2 cycles chemotherapy alone. Conclusions Con current chemotherapy and 3DCRT,LAHRT with the dose ≥70 Gy can improve the overall survival of patients with stage Ⅳ non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective To discuss the utility of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in the assessment of treatment efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with renal tumors.Methods Forty-seven patients (40 renal cell carcinomas and 7 angiomyolipomas of kidney) with 49 renal tumors were treated with RFA. Tumors were ablated by laparoscopy-assisted (n= 30) and open surgical (n= 17) RFA. The CEUS and contrast-enhanced CT were performed 1 week after treatment to assess the necrotic area. Technical success was defined as elimination of areas that enhanced at imaging within the entire tumor. Results Forty-seven (95. 9%) of 49 tumors were successfully ablated. The mean length of the major axis at the maximal necrotic area was 4. 6 cm. Compared with the lesions before RFA, the necrotic areas were bigger in 45 patients, identical in 3 patients, and smaller in 1 patient. Six lesions showed a residual enhancement at the portion adjacent to the normal renal parenchyma on follow-up CEUS, while 2 were confirmed by CT scans. The sensitivity and specificity of CEUS for detection of residual tumors were 100. 0% and 91.8%, respectively. All patients survived in the follow-up period ranging from 4 to 21 months. Conclusion CEUS combined with CT could be useful for evaluating treatment efficacy of RFA for renal tumors.

Objective To analyze the low dose-volume associated with radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated by three-dimensional confor-real radiation therapy (3DCRT). Methods Data of 100 patients with histologically proved NSCLC treated with 3DCRT or IMRT between November 2006 and January 2009 were collected. Nine patients treated with radiotherapy alone and 91 with radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy. A median dose of 70 Gy (range,60-80 Gy) was delivered with late-course accelerated hyperfractionated radiotherapy (LAHRT). Twenty-four patients received dose of 61-69 Gy and 76 received more than 70 Gy. The V_5 ,V_(10) ,V_(20) ,V_(30)and mean lung dose (MLD) were calculated from the dose volume histogram system. The RILI was evaluated according to Common Toxicity Criteria 3.0(CTC 3.0). Results The range of V_5 ,V_(10) ,V_(20) ,V_(30) was 37%-98%,27%-78%, 17%-54% and 9%-31%, respectively, with a median value of 65%, 47.5%, 31% and 24%, respectively. The acute RILI of grade 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 was observed in 34, 27, 8, 1 and 1 patients,respectively. The chronic RILI of grade 1, 2 and 3 was observed in 46, 14 and 2 patients, respectively. V_5 ,V_(10) ,V_(20) and MLD were significantly correlated with acute RILI of ≥ grade 1. V_5 ,V_(20) ,V_(30) and MLD were significantly correlated with acute RILI of ≥ grade 2. The acute RILI of ≥ grade 2 was significantly in-creased when V_5, V_(20) and V_(30) were more than 65%, 31% and 24%, respectively. The acute RILI of ≥ grade 3 was significantly increased when V_5 was more than 65%. The acute RILI of ≥ grade 1 was signifi-candy increased when V_(20)was more than 31%. The gross tumor volume and planning target volume were sig-nificantly correlated with the acute RILI of ≥ grade 1 and chronic RILI of ≥ grade 2. Conclusions The dose-volume V_5 and V_(10) are effective in predicting RILI.
