The relation between D dimer levels and focus size, severity of infarction and prognosis were analyzed. Results There was significant difference( P

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects in treating periprosthetic femoral fractures classified Vancouver B2 with a cementless modular revision femoral prosthesis.Methods Twenty-six patients (7 males and 19 females with mean age of 66.5 years,range 60-69 years) who suffered from periprosthetic femoral fractures classified Vancouver B2 were treated with a cementless modular revision femoral prosthesis in hip revision and open reduction and internal fixation with cables or plates from March 2007 to February 2014.The previous femoral prostheses included 21 cementless and 5 cemented hip stems.The period from former procedures to fractures was 16 months,range from 7 to 32 months.Harris hip scores and numerical rating scales were analyzed statistically.Time of leaving bed,discharging,fracture union postoperative complications and radiographic imaging were also recorded.Results The operation duration were 143 (range 105-165) minutes.Blood loss volume was 450 (range 270-780) ml.Blood transfusion volume were 330 (range 0-800) ml.All patients were followed up at least two years,averagely 3.5 years after surgeries.All fractures healed at 6.5 (range 3-12) months averagely after surgeries.Harris hip scores improved significantly from 11.8±2.5 before surgeries to 80.3±5.3 one month and to 91.4±7.3 six months after surgeries separately (F=0.715,P=0.001).Numerical rating scales were 9.6±0.3,9.4±0.4 and 9.1±0.7 points averagely in aspect of information acquisition,postoperative pain control and function recovery respectively one month after surgeries.Average time of leaving bed and discharging from surgeries was 68.3 (range 51-75) hours and 6.5 (range 5-9) days respectively.No postoperative complications was found except dislocation in 1 hip,lower limb discrepancy in 1 hip,DVT in 1 hip,and heterotopic ossification in 3 hips.Conclusion Due to achieving prosthetic stability and fracture union,periprosthetic femoral fractures classified Vancouver B2 treated with a cementless modular revision femoral prosthesis combined with open reduction and internal fixation with cables or plates can reach good clinical outcomes.

OBJECTIVETo study the molecular mechanism of extracts from Euodia rutaecarpa on hepatotoxicity in mice.

METHODTotally 30 KM mice were divided into 3 groups and orally administrated extracts from E. rutaecarpa for consecutively 15 days. The expressions of Erkl/2, CDK8, CK1e, Stat3 and Src were detected by Western blotting method.

RESULTThe extracts from E. rutaecarpa could up-regulated Erkl/2, CDK8 and CK1e expressions (P <0.01) and down-regulate Stat3 and Src (P <0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe molecular mechanism of E. rutaecarpa on hepatotoxicity may be correlated with Erkl/2, CDK8, CKle, Stat3 and Src signal molecules.

High performance liquid chromatography-time-off-flight mass spectrometer (HPLC-TOFMS) technology coupled with partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) processed by SIMCA-P software was applied to investigate serum endogenous metabolites alternations of valsartan in spontaneous hypertension rats (SHR). And MetPA platform was used to connect identified potential biomarkers in corresponding metabolic pathways to find possible therapeutic mechanism of valsartan. Valsartan significantly declined the blood pressure of SHRs (P < 0.05) at fourth week. The metabolic profiling significantly changed and four metabolites involved in G protein-coupled pathway were identified. Metabolomics is able to detect holistic and microcosmic alternations in organism, so as to elucidate therapeutic mechanism of drugs.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous renal replacement therapy on the levels of IL-27 in peripheral blood of patients with chronic heart failure concurrence acute kidney failure. Methods 78 patients with chronic heart failure were enrolled from June 2012 to December 2013 in Zhujiang hospital affiliated Southern medical university. According to patient′s condition, 38 patients with chronic heart failure concurrence acute kidney failure undertaking CRRT, 40 patients with chronic heart failure undertaking conventional therapy. Heart function were determined by cardiac ultrasound, the levels of IL-27 and BNP were determined by ELISA. Results Compared with chronic heart failure patients, the levels of IL-27 were decreasing but BNP were increasing in patients with chronic heart failure concurrence acute kidney failure (P < 0.05). After CRRT, the levels of IL-27 were increasing but BNP were decreasing in patients with chronic heart failure concurrence acute kidney failure. Correlation analysis showed that the levels of IL-27 is negatively correlated with the levels of BNP , but positively correlated with LVEF (P<0.05). Conclusion IL-27 participated in the development of chronic heart failure concurrence acute kidney failure. CRRT regulating and controlling the heart and kidney function may partly through effecting on immune-inflammatory mechanism.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and clinical feasibility of the computer-assisted full plan- ning system for tibial fracture treatment with intramedullary nailing.Methods After analyzing the functional structure and operative procedures of the system,nine plastic tibia and 12 cadaver lower limbs were used for image mosaicing based on C-arm (PHILIPS BV Libra) fluoroscopic images in the operation room to assess the correctness of the mosaicing and planning algorithms.The plastic tibial model was used for analysis of the mosaicing precision.The cadaver tibial bone was used for reduction experiment with the reduction mechanism to analyze the operation feasi- bility.Results Only 7 to 10 [fluoroscopy time:(19.75?0.61)s] valid C-ann projection images were needed to produce a long bone panorama of the lower limb.The total time for image acquisition and mosaicing was within (4.17?0.86)minutes and the mosaicing precision in the plastic tibial model was (1.26?0.76)mm.The opera- tion of the reduction mechanism was very simple and could be controlled by a surgeon automatically or free of hand. An integrated reduction strategy could be produced for rough positioning in general and elaborate operations in de- tails.Conclusion The computer-assisted full planning system can be used for anatomical analysis based on the C-arm panorama,full surgical planning,virtual simulation,selection of proper intramedullary nails and fracture reduction in treatment of long bone fractures.
