Objective:To seek the possibility of using internally installed curved mandibular distractor to repair the partial mandibular curved defect.Methods:A curved mandibular defect was sectioned in each of 3 adult dogs.The distractor designed by our own group based on the steel ball conducted force was implanted.After 7 days of latency,the distraction was performed at the rate of 0.5 mm × 2 times per day,followed by 3 months consolidation period.The osteogenesis was evaluated by general observation,X-ray examination and HE staining.Results:No complication was observed after operation and during distraction.The new bone healed well into a curved shape.The X-ray examination revealed that the transport disc moved along with the predesigned rail curve.HE staining clearly showed neo bone formulation zone between the mature trabecular and connective tissue.Conclusion:The internal distractor based on the steel ball conducted force can realize the curved distraction osteogenesis of posteriormandibular.

Objective:To observe the effect of sodium fluoride (NaF) on the expression of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) signal and apoptosis in human osteosarcoma Saos-2 cells.Methods:Saos-2 cells were divided into 0 (control), 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg/L fluoride groups ( n= 3) according to the dose of NaF. The cells were collected after 24 and 48 h of culture in vitro. Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of PI3K/Akt signal and Forkhead transcription factor (FoxO) 1, and the apoptosis level of Saos-2 cells was detected by flow cytometry. Results:There were no significants differences in the expressions of PI3K and Akt in Saos-2 cells at 24 and 48 h ( P > 0.05). At 24 h, the expressions of phosphorylated PI3K (p-PI3K) in 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg/L fluoride groups (0.40 ± 0.06, 0.45 ± 0.02, 0.37 ± 0.06, 0.32 ± 0.06) were higher than that in the control group (0.28 ± 0.04, P < 0.05); at 48 h, the expressions of p-PI3K in 5 and 10 mg/L fluoride groups (0.46 ± 0.06, 0.58 ± 0.03) were higher than that in the control group (0.29 ± 0.04, P < 0.05), and that in the 40 mg/L fluoride group (0.21 ± 0.03) was lower than that in the control group ( P < 0.05). At 24 h, the expressions of phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) in 5, 10 and 20 mg/L fluoride groups (0.27 ± 0.01, 0.30 ± 0.03, 0.27 ± 0.03) were higher than that in the control group (0.20 ± 0.02, P < 0.05); at 48 h, the expressions of p-Akt in 5 and 10 mg/L fluoride groups (0.42 ± 0.04, 0.60 ± 0.02) were higher than that in the control group (0.27 ± 0.01, P < 0.05), and that in the 40 mg/L fluoride group (0.18 ± 0.02) was lower than that in the control group ( P < 0.05). The expressions of FoxO1 in 10, 20 and 40 mg/L fluoride groups at 24 h (0.38 ± 0.07, 0.41 ± 0.06, 0.47 ± 0.08) were higher than that in the control group (0.34 ± 0.04, P < 0.05). At 48 h, the expressions of FoxO1 in 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg/L fluoride groups (0.36 ± 0.08, 0.37 ± 0.10, 0.54 ± 0.04, 0.73 ± 0.04) were higher than that in the control group (0.28 ± 0.04, P < 0.05). At 24 and 48 h, the apoptosis rates of control group and 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg/L fluoride groups were (2.867 ± 0.583)%, (3.647 ± 0.035)%, (3.773 ± 0.095)%, (5.440 ± 0.325)%, (7.203 ± 0.476)%; (3.707 ± 0.286)%, (4.023 ± 0.241)%, (4.970 ± 0.368)%, (12.473 ± 0.949)%, (19.387 ± 1.892)%, respectively.

Conclusion:Fluoride can directly activate the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in osteoblasts, and then has anti-apoptotic effect.

Objective:To screen the time points of high survival rate and efferocytosis dysfunction of rat alveolar macrophages stimulated by cigarette smoke extract (CSE), establish an in vitro model of alveolar macrophage efferocytosis function, and study chronic respiratory diseases with chronic inflammatory reaction as the main pathological changes. Methods:① Time point screening experiment: rat alveolar macrophages (NR8383 cells) were cultured in vitro, and the cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into blank control group (100 μL complete medium) and 5% CSE group (90 μL complete medium + 10 μL 100% CSE). Alma blue method was used to detect the effect of 5% CSE on the activity of NR8383 cells at 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours. ② Apoptosis induction experiment: rat type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells (RLE-6TN cells) were cultured in vitro as phagocytic target cells of NR8383 cells, and the cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into blank control group and 10, 30 and 60 minutes groups after ultraviolet exposure (apoptosis was induced by 30 000 μJ/cm 2 ultraviolet irradiation for 15 minutes). Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate of RLE-6TN cells cultured for 10, 30 and 60 minutes after ultraviolet exposure. ③ Cell efferocytosis experiment: NR8383 cells in logarithmic phase were divided into blank control group and 5% CSE group. Two hours before NR8383 cells were stimulated by CSE for 6, 12 and 24 hours, RLE-6TN cells were exposed to ultraviolet to induce apoptosis, and the RLE-6TN cell suspension was added to NR8383 cells (the ratio of RLE-6TN cells to NR8383 cells was 5∶1). Flow cytometry was used to detect the efferocytosis rate of NR8383 cells to RLE-6TN cells at different time points treated with 5% CSE. Results:① Compared with the blank control group, the activity of NR8383 cells significantly decreased after treatment with 5% CSE for 48 hours [cell reduction rate: (68.5±4.1)% vs. (73.6±2.3)%, P < 0.05]. However, there were no significant differences when the activities of NR8383 cells treated with 5% CSE for 6, 12 and 24 hours were compared with the blank control group, so these three time points were selected for the subsequent establishment of alveolar macrophage cell efferocytosis dysfunction in vitro model experiment. ② Compared with the blank control group, the apoptosis rate of RLE-6TN cells significantly increased at 10, 30 and 60 minutes after ultraviolet exposure [(66.87±8.63)%, (85.51±2.39)%, (96.13±2.74)% vs. (9.13±3.17)%, all P < 0.01] in a time-dependent manner. Considering that it taked about 50 minutes for RLE-6TN cells to be labeled with PKH26 membrane labeling probe, 10 minutes after ultraviolet exposure was selected to label RLE-6TN cells. ③ Compared with the blank control group, the efferocytosis function of NR8383 cells was significantly decreased after treatment with 5% CSE for 12 hours [cell efferocytosis rate: (33.64±1.30)% vs. (44.02±2.71)%, P < 0.01], but there was no significant effect on the efferocytosis function of NR8383 cells at 6 hours and 24 hours. Conclusions:CSE can induce alveolar macrophage cell efferocytosis dysfunction. Based on the test results of the effect of 5% CSE on NR8383 cell activity and cell efferocytosis function, 12 hours with high survival rate and weak efferocytosis effect of NR8383 cells can be selected as the in vitro model condition of alveolar macrophage cell efferocytosis dysfunction.

Objective To evaluate distractor-assisted reduction for Lisfranc injury complicated with compressive fracture of lateral foot column.Methods A retrospective study was conducted of the 18 patients who had been treated surgically at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery,Zhengzhou Orthopaedics Hospital between May 2014 and March 2017 for Lisfranc injury complicated with compressive fracture of lateral foot column.They were 10 males and 8 females,with an average age of 38.4 years (from 25 to 65 years).The injury involved the right foot in 11 cases and the left foot in 7.Their concomitant injuries were 12 compressive cuboid fractures and 6 compressive fractures of the calcaneal anterior process.According to the Chiodo-Myerson classification,there were 13 cases of three-column injury,3 ones of middle-lateral column injury and 2 ones of medial-lateral column injury.All the injuries were closed.After the condition of foot soft tissues permitted,open reduction assisted by a distractor and internal fixation with a mini locking plate was performed.Functional outcomes were assessed according to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) hindfoot-ankle scores and visual analogue scale (VAS) at the final follow-ups and complications during follow-up.Results The 18 patients were followed up for one to 4 years (average,2 years).Their AOFAS hindfoot-ankle scores ranged from 55 to 96 points (average,80.4 points);their VAS ranged from 0 to 6 points (average,1.5 points).Radiographic evidence of degeneration was noted in 10 patients.Of them,2 reported persistent pain which was cured by arthrodesis after conservative therapy failed and one presented with symptoms of injury to sural and cutaneous nerves which disappeared after oral administration of neurotrophic drugs for half a year.No such complication as skin necrosis,infection or implant failure occurred in other patients.Conclusion Open distractor-assisted reduction and internal fixation of lateral foot column with a mini locking plate,combined with bone graft if necessary,is an effective treatment for Lisfranc injury complicated with compressive fracture of lateral foot column,because it can effectively restore the alignment of lateral column and result in satisfactory therapeutic effects.

Objective To evaluate the surgical treatment of intra-articular calcaneal fractures associated with peroneal tendon dislocation.Methods From February 2014 to June 2017,15 patients (15 feet) with intra-articular calcaneal fracture associated with peroneal tendon dislocation were treated at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery,Orthopaedics Hospital of Zhengzhou.There were 9 males (9 feet) and 6 females (6 feet),and 8 left feet and 7 right feet.The patients were aged from 20 to 55 years (average,42.5 years).After reduction of calcaneal fractures,titanium plates and screws were used for fixation.The bone canal was established on the lateral malleolus,and the torn superior peroneal retinaculum was fixed to the lateral malleolus by suture after reduction of the peroneal tendon.The ankle joint was immobilized with a plaster brace in the metatarsal flexion for 6 weeks.The postoperative outcomes were evaluated by the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and visual analogue scale (VAS);complications were recorded.Results All the 15 patients were followed up for 12 to 36 months (average,20.5 months).All the calcaneal fractures fully healed and no re-dislocation of the peroneal tendon occurred.The AOFAS hindfoot-ankle scores ranged from 80 to 95 points,averaging of 87.4 points;the VAS scores ranged from 0 to 5 points,averaging 1.5 points.Delayed wound healing was observed in one case but primary healing was achieved eventually with regular dressing change.Another case presented with symptoms of injury to the cutaneous branch of the sural nerve which disappeared after oral administration of neurotrophic drugs for 6 months.Another case suffered from subtalar arthritis accompanied by persistent pain which disappeared after subtalar arthrodesis.No other complications were observed in the other patients.Conclusion In the surgical treatment of intra-articular calcaneal fractures associated with peroneal tendon dislocation,the peroneal tendon dislocation should be treated simultaneously with the intra-articular calcaneal fracture to achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Aim To assess the effects of Banqiao Codonopisis Pilosula(BCP)decoction on learning and memory dysfunction in AD model rats induced by high activity GSK-3β and its possible mechanism.Methods The SD rats(4 months old,♂)were divided into five groups,namely,sham-operated group(blank group),AD model group,BCP high-dose(2.16 g·kg-1·d-1)group,BCP medium-dose(1.08 g·kg-1·d-1)group,and BCP lower-dose(0.54 g·kg-1·d-1)group.Treatment group received BCP decoction by gavage once a day for 14 days,while other groups were offered drinking water by gavage once a day for 14 days.The autonomous behavior activities of all rats were observed and recorded after gavage.In the last seven days by gavage,Morris water maze test was used to test the spatial learning and memory ability of the five groups.After five days training,treatment groups and AD model group were injected wortmannin(WT,PI3K specific inhibitor)and GF-109203X(GFX,PKC specific inhibitor)(100 μmol·L-1 of each,total volume of 10 μL)into the right lateral ventricle of the rats.The blank group was only injected 2％DMSO.The spatial memory retention was detected by water maze 24 hours after lateral ventricle injection.Then,changes in the spatial learning memory of rats were observed.The level of Tau phosphorylation in SD rat hippocampus and the expression and activity changes of related protein kinase GSK-3β were detected by Western blot and immunohistochemistry.The changes of Nissl bodies in SD rat hippocampus were observed by Nissl′s staining.Results After intragastric administration of BCP,the rat autonomous behavior activities in each group all showed a declining trend,and the differences in low-dose and middle-dose groups had statistical significance compared with blank group.The Morris water maze tests showed that the latency navigation of model group was significantly longer than that of blank group(P<0.01),while that of the BCP three doses groups was shorter than that of model group(P<0.05).Compared with the same group,the latency navigation of the three groups after gavage BCP low,middle and high dose was significant shorter than that without gavage(P<0.05).Western blot results showed that the activity of GSK-3β in AD model group was up-regulated compared with the blank group.However,BCP inhibited activity of GSK-3β.Western blot and immunohistochemistry results showed the level of Tau phosphorylation in AD model group was increased compared with the blank group in the area of CA3(P<0.05).Compared with AD model group,the level of Tau phosphorylation was decreased in treatment group.Nissl′s staining results showed that dendritic spines in AD model group was significantly attenuated compared with the blank group(P<0.05).Far more dendritic spines were observed in treatment group than in AD model group.The number of Nissl′s bodies in neuron cells of hippocampus in hippocampal CA3 was obviously larger in treatment groups than in AD model group.These effect of BCP was dose-dependent.Conclusions BCP can prevent the learning and memory dysfunction in AD model rats induced by high activity of GSK-3β.The mechanism may be related to inhibiting GSK-3β activity and then reducing the level of phosphorylation of Tau and improving neural development.

After treatment, the LVEDD [(53.18±3.09)mm] and LVESD [(52.19±2.35)mm] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(58.97±2.73)mm and (57.79±2.65)mm], while the SV [(76.93±3.67)mL] and LVEF [(53.90±2.64)%] in the observation group were higher than those in the control group [(71.35±2.87)mL and (46.75±2.18)%], the differences were statistically significant ( t=12.638, 14.230, 10.779, 18.795, all P<0.05). The plasma AngⅡ [(96.52±12.16)ng/L], CRP [(4.30±0.69)mg/L] and NT-proBNP [(394.25±47.15)ng/L] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(135.42±23.15)ng/L, (6.27±0.78)mg/L and (565.29±56.72)ng/L] ( t=13.389, 17.025, 20.870, all P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group (11.11%) was lower than that in the control group (30.86%) (χ 2=9.529, P<0.05). Conclusion:Wenxin granule combined with sotalol is effective in the treatment of arrhythmia, which can reduce the plasma levels of Ang Ⅱ, CRP and NT-proBNP, improve the heart function and has no obvious adverse reactions.

Objective:To review relevant research on the application of self-help intervention model in adult depression patients, analyze the main characteristics and application effects of self-help intervention model, in order to provide reference for related research in this field.Methods:According to the methodological framework of the scope review, searched 12 Chinese and English databases including CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed, Web of Science, etc. from the establishment of the database until April 20, 2021, and sorted and analyzed the obtained documents according to the inclusion and exclusion standards.Results:A total of 45 documents were included, of which only 5 were from China; the included studies were mainly based on the Internet platform, using cognitive behavioral therapy, reading therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and problem-solving therapy for intervention; the duration of the intervention was 3 weeks to 4 months, participants complete an intervention module or read a specified number of chapters every 3 to 7 days on average, and receive regular guidance and supervision from the intervention facilitator every 1-2 weeks. The total contact time with the facilitator was 80-160 minutes. Various modes of self-help intervention based on the Internet could effectively improve the negative emotions of patients with depression.Conclusions:The self-help intervention model has shown good results in the treatment of patients with depression, but there is a lack of local intervention research in China, and there is no clear standard for the number of interventions and the length of the intervention guide. Under the general trend of "Internet + medical health", it is necessary to actively construct a self-help intervention model for depression with Chinese cultural characteristics, and form a systematic and standardized intervention strategy to address the many obstacles in time, location, resources and cost of people with depression, and finally achieve the purpose of improving the patients′ depressive symptoms and helping them to restore their social functions.
