[Objective]To observe and analyze the clinical results of ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament(OPLL) combined with high-signal intensity zone(HIZ) change. [Methods]Forty patients with OPLL combined with HIZ were treated from March 2004 to March 2008.Anterior approach surgery was given to 19 cases as group A and posterior approach surgery was given to 21 cases as group P.All cases were followed up.The pre-and post-operative JOA17 scores and improvement ratio were evaluated.[Results]The mean follow-up time were(19.5?3.4) months in group A and(20.3?4.5) months in group P.The mean improvement ratio were(56.2?8.4)% in group A and(52.2?12.2)% in group P.There were no statistical differences between those of groups A and P.Mean JOA scores at last follow-up were(12.8?0.9) in group A and(11.5?1.6) in group P,with significantly difference.[Conclusion]Treatment of OPLL combined with HIZ is a high risk procedure with limited recovery in neoro-function.Good surgical result could be got with correct judgement of type and location of OPLL,occupation ratio of spinal canal and selection of approach.

The postoperative JOA score was ranging from 13.6 to 15.9 with the mean score of 14.8 and the improvement rate of 89.5%.All fractures of odontoid process and all bone grafts had solid bone union.No failure and loosening of internal instrument was found.[Conclusion]The two 3D-fixation techniques are effective and reliable.

Aim: To establish an HPLC method for the determination of secnidazole and its related substances, and to elucidate the structure of the main related substances. Methods: HPLC was performed on an Agilent C_(18) (150 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) column. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and 0. 1% formic acid solution( 10 : 90). The detection wavelength was set at 320 nm and the column oven was maintained at 30 ℃. The mass spec-trometry detector was equipped with an ESI source with a temperature of 350 ℃, and set at positive ion monito-ring model The spray chamber pressure was 0. 34 MPa. The drying gas flow rate was 10 L/min. Results: Sec-nidazole was completely separated from the impurities. The calibration curve of secnidazole was linear over the range of 0. 10-1 500. 0 μg/mL with the correlation coefficient of 0. 999 9. The contents of secnidazole in the sam-ples were 100.5%, 100.3% and 100.7%, respectively, and those of the related substances were 0.463%, 0. 488% and 0.465%, respectively. The three related substances were identified by HPLC-UV-MS~n as 2-methyl-5-nitroimida-zole and the isomerides of secnidazole, respectively. Conclusion: The developed method is reliable for the quality control and determination of related substances of secnidazole.

Objective To explore the effect of age on neurogenesis of dentate gyrus granule cell and the impact on differentiation of newborn cells in rats.Methods SD rats were selected and divided into 5 groups according age of 7,14,28,60,180 d(n=8),and the neurogenesis of dentate gyrus granule cell in hippocampus with normal development was detected,using 5-bromo-BrdU(BrdU) labled newborn neuron and ?-tubulin protein(TuJ1) and glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) labeled glial cells,and understood the newborn cells to neurons and glial cell differentiation ratio.Results Neurogenesis was found in dentate gyrus granule cell layer with hippocampus of all different age rats.Various forms of cells with a larger nucleus that were round,oval,diamond were distributed over the entire granule cell layer.BrdU-positive cells within each group were 158.07?5.37,141.28?7.27,116.93?9.24,76.56?6.88,41.42?4.45,the number of BrdU-positive cells were reduced with the growth of rats(P0.05);4%-5% newborn cells expressed GFAP.In addition,some of the BrdU-positive cells at the same time did not express TuJ1 or GFAP.Conclusions There are neurogenesis in dentate gyrus granule cell in rats of different age.The new born cells mostly differentzate into granule neuron cell.The capability of cell proliferation are decreased with the growth of age.

Glucose was transported by the large number of hexose transporters in yeast cells. There were 18 hexose transporter genes had been identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However,as an excellent expression system,there was no information of these genes had been reported in Pichia pastoris. Based on high homologous recombination efficiency in yeast,we chose G418 resistance for screening,200 bp were cloned from the up and down sequences of HXT1 ORF respectively,then ligated to the 5′ and 3′ end of G418 resis-tance gene for recombination. After electroporation of GS115 spheroplast and screened through different G418 concentration plates,finally we obtained one HXT1 gene deletion mutant named GS115?HXT1. The growth rate and glucose consumption of this mutant were both lower than the wide type.

Objective:To explore the pharmaceutical care model for the patients with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome ( ALI/ARDS) caused by inhalation of chemical agents to ensure the safety, rationality and effectiveness of drugs. Methods:According to the characteristics of drug therapy for the patients with ALI/ARDS caused by inhalation of chemical agents, the pharma-ceutical care was carried out and the suggestions on the medication were given. Results:Through the pharmaceutical care, the safety, reasonability and effectiveness were improved. And the incidence of adverse drug reactions was decreased. Conclusion: Cooperating with clinical physician, clinical pharmacists can perform active pharmaceutical service and optimize dosage regimen, which is beneficial to the safety, reasonability and effectiveness of drug therapy for the patients.

BACKGROUND:The self-locking ROI-CTM interbody fusion has zero profile design which can significantly reduce the impact on the esophagus and pharynx, and also simplify the operation procedure. However, there is no report whether it has satisfactory outcomes in the treatment of Hangman fractures.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical effects of ROI-CTM or titanium plate internal fixation on postoperative cervical stability and fusion rate in the treatment of Hangman fractures.
METHODS:Twenty-one cases of Hangman fractures were included, including 13 males and 8 females, aged 25-62 years old. Fifteen cases were treated with titanium plate internal fixation, and the other five cases were treated with ROI-CTM fusion device. Cervical anteroposterior and lateral radiographs, lateral flexion extension radiographs and CT scanning were carried out before, 3 days and 3 months after repair to assess angular displacement, horizontal displacement and fusion rate; visual analog scale score and Bazaz dysphagia score were determined.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 3 days after operation, the ROI-CTM group was significantly better than the titanium plate group in visual analog scale scores and Bazaz dysphagia grade (P < 0.05), and there were no significant differences in angular displacement and horizontal displacement (P > 0.05). However, at 3 months after operation, there was no significant difference between the two groups in visual analog scale score, Bazaz dysphagia grade, angular displacement and horizontal displacement and fusion rate (P > 0.05). Postoperative complete reduction rate of spondylolisthesis was higher in the ROI-CTM group than the titanium plate group (P < 0.05). In each group, the angular displacement and horizontal displacement were significantly reduced at 3 day and 3 months after operation (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference at 3 days and 3 months after operation (P > 0.05). No rejection reaction, internal fixation fracture and loosening occurred in the two groups. These findings indicate that the self-locking ROI-CTM fusion for treatment of Hangman fractures are characterized as higher reduction rate of spondylolisthesis, less dysphagia, and less neck pain.
