Objective To evaluate the cranioplasty with Titanium mesh.Methods Clinical studies of 110 cases who accepted cranioplasty with Titanium mesh (2000-2001) were reviewed retrospectively.Results A satisfactory moulding with no complication occurred in 91%(100/110). The most common recent complication of cranioplasty with Titanium was subcutaneous hematoma(19/110); the next was epidural hematoma(3/110), intracerebral hematoma(3/110) and brain contusion(1/110). 69 cases more than 1 year after cranioplasty were followed, no one appeared long term complications such as infection, exposure or mobilization of the mending material.Conclusion The results of cranioplasty with Titanium mesh are satisfactory, the recent complications of the operation are mainly related to incompletely hemostasis, the long term complication occurred rarely.

Objective To investigate the effects of 1,25(OH)_2D_3 on cell proliferation and cell cycle progression in mouse osteoblasts.Methods Sterile bones of skull of mouse were taken from 30 newborn mouse,and the osteoblast were separated by enzyme digestion methods.After 1,25(OH)_2D_3 in different concentrations were added into culture medium,the effects of 1,25(OH)_2D_3 on cell proliferation of mouse osteoblasts and on cell cycle progression were examined by mono-nuclear celldirect cytotoxicity assay(MTT)reduction assay and flow cytometry respectively.Results After 24,48,72 h of 1,25(OH)_2D_3 incubation,the cell number of osteoblast had significant difference among groups of 1,25(OH)_2D_3 of 10~(-8),10~(-9),10~(-11)mol/L.Significant differences were found in the cell cycle progression in response to 1,25(OH)_2D_3 treatment from the Gl(84.30?1.90)to the G2-M (7.70?0.667)and S(8.00?1.42)phases when compared with those in the control group. Conclusions Cell proliferation of mouse osteoblasts can be inhibited by 1,25(OH)_2D_3 in a concentration-dependent manner.

Objective To explore whether the inflammatory stress can increase insulin resistance in the CD36 knockout (KO) mice.Methods After the mice were fed a standard chow for 14 weeks,oral glucose tolerance test,insulin release tests,lipids metabolism,SAA,IL-6,TNF-? and hepatic mRNA and proteins expression of mTOR,S6K,IRS-1,pIRS-1,2 were measured.Results Compared with the wide-type,the CD36 KO mice un-inflamed exhibited insulin resistance,and the insulin resistance index was increased[(3.01?1.24) vs (0.81?0.12),P

Objective To describe the pathogenic and serological test results of the plague in China from 2001 to 2009, and human and animal plague distribution. Methods Through access to information of the plague surveillance report in China from 2002 to 2010, national plague pathogenic and serological test results and the epidemic situation were analyzed from 2001 to 2009. Results From 2001 to 2009, 2966 strains of Yersinia pestis were isolated in the seven provinces which were Guizhou, Guangxi, Yunnan, Qinghai, Tibet, Gansu and Inner Mongolia. Of these, 1 138 000 animals were detected by bacteriological method, 1998 strains of Yersinia pestis were isolated;379 227 groups of intermediary animals were detected, 927 strains of Yersinia pestis were isolated;41 strains of Yersinia pestis were isolated from human body. Animal serums of 1 169 702 were detected by indirect hemagglutination assay(IHA), of these 3177 animal serums were positive, 168 human serums were positive;53 323 animal samples were detected by reverse indirect hemagglutination assay(RIHA), of these 500 were positive. There were outbreak or epidemic of plague in 9 types of plague foci, 2925 strains of Yersinia pestis were isolated. Two animals and 6 fleas were judged as new reservoir and new vector. There were 23 counties of 6 provinces were judged as plague new natural foci counties. Conclusions The plague epidemic in China is still serious between 2001 and 2009. There are nine types of foci in the active state.

Objectives To observe the changes of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) during the course of treatment in hepatolen-ticular degeneration (HLD) and to evaluate its related factors.Methods Sixty - three patients with HLD received routine SE sequence MRI of brain and liver.Twenty - two patients with abnormal MRI in 42 patients and each of them had 2-4 times of serial MRI ex-aminations at interval of 1.0- 1.5 year.Results Ten patients had lesion in both brain and liver in 22 patients. Nine patients only in brain, 3 patients in liver.The major lesions disappear or decrease after rational treatments. There were only slight or no changes of MRI abnormalities in patients receiving treatments or age of patients was over 15 year old. Abnormal MRI findings shown again after stopped treatments over 2 months. In such cases, the clinical and MRI improvements were slow.The rate of clinical and MRI improvement in patients with adequate treatment were markedly higher than patients with inadequate treatment.Conclusions Liver and brain lesion will show in MRI disappear after adequate treatment;There are only slight or no change or showing again in MRI abnormalities in pa-tients with inadequate treatments compared with poor clinical improvement. MRI is beneficial to understanding therapeutic effect and prognosis of HLD.
