BACKGROUND: The incidence of the adjacent vertebral fracture after kyphoplasty is about 2.4%-23.0%, and 2/3 of new fractures occurred in adjacent vertebrae in 6 months. There is controversy addressing the reason which is the development of osteoporosis or the result of bone cement augment at present.OBJECTIVE: To determine the correlations between percutaneous kyphoplasty on adjacent vertebral endoplates stresses pressure under physiologianl load and a new fracture of adjacent vertebral body in physiological load.METHODS: Computed tomography (CT) data of an old female osteoporotic patient was selected, and a three-dimensional finite element model of the osteoporetic thoracolumbar spine T_(12)-L_1-L_2 was created by using kinds of computer aided design software.The height of vertebral L_1 was compressed by 60% to simulated the compressed fracture, and the height of L_1 became the 90% of normal to simulate the replacement, two columns-like PAMA mass (4 mL) was placed in vertebral L_1 to simulate pemutaneous kyphoplasty. The stress on inferior endplate of L_(12) and superior endplate of L_2 was compared with three models. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared to the normal vertebral body, the maximum stress in the adiacent vertebral bodies endplates increased by 76% for L_1 compress fracture model and increased by 27% for kyphoplasty model, respectively. The stress on the posterior part of vertebral body after percutaneous kyphoplasty have an average increase of 13.2%, of which 4.5% increase in the pedicle, isthmus, and 6.15% increased in the key points 25.6%, but with the wedge-shaped fracture of L_1 vertebral body compared to the model, percutaneous kyphoplasty after pedicle, isthmus and the articular process had reduced stress. The results indicate that the stress on inferior endplate of L-(12) and superior endplate of L_1 increased after percutaneous kyphoplasty under all loading conditions. Increased stress may lead endplate fracture, and increase the risk of adjacent vertebral body fracture. Further researches are needed to support the conclusion.

Objective: To compare the blood lfow of left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft vessel between minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) and traditional median sternotomyin off-pump coronary artery bypass (Traditional OPCAB) by transit-time lfow meter (TTFM). Methods: We retrospectively studied 300 patients who received OPCAB in our hospital from 2013-01 to 2015-07, all patients had LIMA to left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) anastomosis. The patients were divided into 2 groups: MIDCAB group, n=70 and Traditional OPCAB group,n=230. Intra-operative blood lfow in graft vessel was measured by transit-time lfow meter. Pre- and post-operative indexes and the mean lfow (MF), pulsatile index (PI), diastolic fraction (DF) of LIMA graft were compared between 2 groups. Results: The following indexes in Traditional OPCAB group and MIDCAB group were as below: intra-operative transfusion was (3.00±5.42) U vs (1.06±2.17) U, post-operative peak value of cTnI was (2.84±9.93) ng/ml vs (0.69±1.74) ng/ml, mechanical ventilation time was (27.9±66.9) h vs (14.2±20.8) h and ICU stay time was (64.1±89.6) h vs (35.2±39.2) h, allP<0.05; while for the graft from LIMA to LAD, MF was (29.45±18.19) ml/min vs (29.04±15.85) ml/min, PI was (2.68±1.19) vs (2.44±0.84) and DF was (71.47±11.12) % vs (70.25±11.30) %, allP>0.05. Conclusion: With LIMA to LAD graft, MIDCAB may achieve the same effect as traditional OPCAB, the early post-operative anastomosis has been reliable.

ObjectiveTo determine the correlation of human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G)expression with CMV active infection after kidney transplantation. MethodsA total of 215 first-time kidney transplantation recipients in one transplantation center were divided into CMV ( + ) group and CMV ( - ) group according to whether they had active CMV infection. mhla-g1 expression on leukocytes was analyzed by flow cytometry. The concentrations of soluble HLA-G5 were detected by using ELISA. The sHLA-G5 cutoff levels by ROC curve was employed to predict the active CMV infection. The expression of sHLA-G5 mRNA and protein in leukocytes was analyzed by using RTPCR and Western blotting respectively. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the HLA-G expression in kidney biopsies of 12 cases. ResultsThe expression of mHLA-G1 in peripheral blood was low in both CMV ( + ) group and CMV ( - ) group. Also when CMV-PP65 was positive, there was no significant change in mHLA-G1. In CMV ( + ) group, the proportion of CD14+ mHLA-G1 +cells[(45. 53 ± 17.32)%]in peripheral blood was increased as compared with that in CMV (-)group[(10. 22 ± 5.78)%]. The expression of sHLA-G5 was increased significantly in CMV ( + )group. The optimal cutoff value of sHLA-G5 predicting the active CMV infection was 202. 9 μg/L,with high diagnostic accuracy. HLA-G was positive in the kidney tissue of 10 patients out of 12 patients with active CMV infection. Both RT-PCR and Western blot analysis showed that sHLA-G5 was significantly higher in CMV ( + ) group than that in CMV ( - ) group. ConclusionROC curve analysis of sHLA-G5 with the cutoff value of 202. 9 μg/L can be used to predict the active CMV infection. The HLA-G levels in peripheral blood were significantly increased and HLA-G expression in the tubular epithelial cells of the graft could be a protection mechanism of the kidney function.
