1.Advances in detection technology for HBV phenotypic resistance
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2015;(3):151-154
Long-term use of nucleoside ( nucleotide ) analogues for anti-HBV treatment care easily lead to drug resistance. As compared to genotypic resistance detection, the detection technology of phenotypic resistance is a method used to analysis the sensitivity of antiviral drugs in vitro cell model, the result can directly reflect the relationship between drug-resistance mutations and drug susceptibility, thus perform a better prediction of clinical resistance.Among those technologies, some analysis strategies like transient transfection assay, stable cell lines and enzymatic assay, have been developed for early diagnoses as well as dynamic monitoring of drug resistance, and contribute greatly to proper selection of therapeutic regimen, reduction of resistance rate and implementation of individual treatment.

China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2015;28(9):796-801
OBJECTIVETo compare the effect of three cannulated screws and dynamic hip screw (DHS) combined with antirotation screw in treating patients with comminuted fractures of femoral neck.
METHODSFrom January 2008 to December 2012,67 patients with comminuted fractures of femoral neck were treated with three cannulated screws or DHS combined with antirotation screw. Among them, 36 patients were treated with DHS combined with antirotation screw including 24 males and 12 females with an average of 43.7 years old ranging from 22 to 58 years old; 31 patients were treated with three cannulated screws including 22 males and 9 females with an average of 43.0 years old ranging from 24 to 56 years old. The incision size, operation time, blood loss, blood transfusion rate, postoperative hospital stay, walking time, weight-bearing time, union time, incidence of complication were recorded and compared between two groups, and functional outcomes were evaluated by Harris scoring.
RESULTSAll incision healed at stage I. The differences in operation time, blood loss, blood transfusion rate and postoperative hospital stay between two groups were not significant (P > 0.05). Incision size of DHS group (5.00 ± 0.86) cm was larger than that of cannulated screw group (3.30 ± 0.57) cm (P < 0.01). All patients were followed up more than one year, and the follow-up time showed no significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05). Walking time of DHS group (19.0 ± 3.5) d was less than that of cannulated screw group (37.0 ± 6.3) d (P < 0.01. Partial and full weight-bearing time of DHS group (23.0 ± 7.0) d and (138.0 ± 13.0) d was less than that of cannulated screw group (38.0 ± 5.7) d and (164.0 ± 12.0) d (P < 0.01). Union time of DHS group (151 ± 11) d was less than that of cannulated screw group (162 ± 11) d (P < 0.01). Harris hip score of DHS group (91.0 ± 5.7) was higher than that of cannulated screw group (85.0 ± 12.0) (P < 0.01). No significant differences were found in the incidence of postoperative complications between two groups (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe DHS combined with antirotation screw is superior to three cannulated screws for treatment of comminuted fractures of femoral neck due to earlier weight-bearing, faster fracture healing and better hip function

Objective To study the expression and its significance of Platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF) and Collagen type Ⅰ (Col- Ⅰ) mRNA in hepatic tissue in mice exposed to arsenic in drinking water. Methods Fifty mice were divided into control group, sodium arsenite group(iAs3+ group, 300 mg/L) and sodium arsenate group (iAs5+ group, 300mg/L) at random. The mice were sacrificed after 10 months for liver function test (ALT, AST and GLB examined by automatic biochemical analyzer) and pathologic examinations. Masson staining and immunohistochemical SABC methods were used. Through the result of Masson staining fibrosis semi-quantitative analysis of the fibrosis number was carried out in the per unit area. Using immuonhistochemical SABC methods, the expression of PDGF and Col- Ⅰ was detected. Results ①Serum ALT was statistically significant among control group [(36.67±3.51) U/L], iAs3+ group[(61.46±13.85) U/L] and iAs5+ group[(43.31±4.21) U/L, F= 6.56, P < 0.05], especially between the control and iAs3+ group (P < 0.05) ;Serum AST had a statistical significance among control group [(135.00 ± 20.42)U/L], iA3+ group [(510.86 ± 59.01)U/L] and iAs5+ group[(258.93 ± 22.40) U/L, F= 83.36, P < 0.05] ;Serum GLB had no statistical significance among control group [(20.86 ± 0.61)g/L], iAs3+ group [(26.94± 3.73)g/L] and iAs5+ group[(24.59 ± 5.27)g/L, F = 2.80, P < 0.05]. ②Masson staining revealed notable liver cell necrosis, regeneration, infiltration of inflammatory cells in portal area. Masson staining Semi-quantitative results showed significantly increasing size of fibrosis in model group. Compared with control group(0.069 ± 0.013) and iAs5+ group(0.143 ± 0.122), fiber hyperplasia of iAs3+ group(0.192 ± 0.108) had statistical significance (F = 1.91, P < 0.05). ③Immunohistochemistry results showed higher expression of PDGF in the portal area, sepetal and preisinus cells in model group. The heavy expression of Col- Ⅰ distributed in the surrounding of blood vessels and bile duet and along portal wall extensting to the liver in model group. Semi-quantitative results showed that PDGF among control group(202.79 ± 7.46), iAs3+ group(174.38 ± 7.71) and iAs5+ group(177.64 ± 7.81) had a statistical significance(F= 102.91, P < 0.05);Col-Ⅰ had a statistical significance among control group(200.11 ± 7.46), iAs3+ group (176.47±10.20) and iAs5+ group (177.378 ±7.948, F = 78.51, P < 0.05). Conclusions Exposed in oral drinking arsenic, mice can develop hepatic injury and hepatic fibrosis.
