OBJECTIVETo observe clinical efficacy in treating cutaneous deficiency of traumatic shank amputation stump with full-thickness skin graft combined with vacuum sealing drainage.
METHODSFrom September 2009 to December 2012, 15 patients with cutaneous deficiency of traumatic shank amputation stump were treated with full-thickness skin graft combined with vacuum sealing drainage. Among patients, there were 11 males and 4 females with an average age of 41.5 (ranged from 25 to 62) years old. Ten cases were caused by traffic accident and 5 cases were caused by heavy object, 9 cases on left and 6 cases on right. Six patients with smashed wound were treated with debridement and amputation, combined with vacuum aspiration in-emergency; 9 patients caused by infection and necrosis were treated with debridement and amputation, combined with vacuum aspiration, and full-thickness skin graft were performed at stage II. The skin defect area of residual limbs ranged from 40 cm x 20 cm to 25 cm x 15 cm.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 3 months to 1 year. Full-thickness skin graft of residual limbs were survived,and obtained satisfactory walking function with prosthetic. Residual skin increased thicken, wearproof without rupture and pain.
CONCLUSIONFull-thickness skin graft combined with vacuum sealing drainage in treating cutaneous deficiency of traumatic shank amputation stump could reserve the length of residual limbs, increase survival rate of skin graft with less scar of survival skin, get good wearability and it is conducive to prosthetic wear. It is a simple and easy treatment method.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of caspase-3 in the brain of acutely pentylenetetrazole(PTZ)-kindled rats.MethodsThe caspase-3 positive cells were revealed using immunohistochemical SP method. CMIAS image analysis system was used to analyse the expression of caspase-3 hemi-quantitatively. ResultsFollowing PTZ induced epilepsy, the expression of caspase-3 increased both in the hippocampus and in the cortex, and that was more remarkable in the hippocampus than in the cortex.ConclusionCaspase-3 may be activated during neuronal apoptosis after epilepsy. Hippocampus is more sensitive to the neuronal damage due to epilepsy than the cortex is.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging in detecting local recurrence in patients with T3N0M0 prostate cancer after cryotherapy.Methods Sixty-five patients with T3N0M0 prostate cancer underwent cryotherapy.The preoperative data of conventional MRI,MRS,transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy were collected.After cryotherapy,the prostate specific antigen (PSA) of all patients was detected monthly.If PSA >5 μg/L,MRI,MRS,and TRUS-guided prostate biopsy were planned within a week.If PSA was unremarkable,MRI,MRS,and TRUS-guided prostate biopsy were planned 12 months after cryotherapy.The prostate was divided 6 regions and the cancerous and noncancerous were marked.The signal-to-noise ratio(S/N) of choline (Cho),citrate (Cit)and the ratios of Cho + creatine ( Cre)/Cit of each regions were measured in pre-operation and postoperation.The patients were divided into non-recurrence and recurrence group according to TRUS-guided biopsy.The S/N of Cho,Cit,and the ratio of Cho + Cre/Cit were compared between the groups before and after cryotherapy by using independent samples t-test.Results ( 1) Fifteen patients were confirmed local recurrence 12 months after cryotherapy,including 11patients with an evaluate PSA level and 4 patients with PSA umemarkable.(2) The S/N of Cho,Cit and the ratios of Cho + Cre/Cit in the cancerous and noncancerous regions before cryotherapy in the sixty-five patients were 25 + 9,11+ 5,and 18 + 5,and 39 ±12,2.33 +0.60,and 0.53 ± 0.19.There had significant difference between that of two groups ( t values were 11.36,9.81,and 13.39,respectively,P =0.00).(3) In the patients with non-recurrence,The S/N of Cho,Cit in the cancerous and noncancerous regions were 4 ± 2 and 3 ± 2 ( t =1.024,P =0.305 ),and 2 +2 and 4 ±3 (t =1.147,P =0.178) and no difference was found.In necrotic area,the ratios of Cho + Cre/Cit could not be calculated because of low level of the S/N of Cho and Cit.(4)In the patients with local recurrence after cryotherapy,the S/N of Cho and Cit in the cancerous and noncancerous regions were 17 ±3 and 3 ± 2 ( t =17.24,p =0.00 ),9 ± 2 and 3 ± 3 ( t =23.66,P =0.00 ) and a significant difference was found.The ratio of Cho + Cre/Cit in the recurrent area was no significant different compared with that of preoperation(t =1.214,P =0.256 ).In necrotic area,the ratios of Cho + Cre/Cit could not be calculated because of low level of the S/N of Cho and Cit.Conclusions MRS is a useful tool to evaluate the changes of the S/N of Cho and Cit,the ratios of the Cho + Cre/Cit and help diagnosis of local recurrence.

0.05).3.Under light microscope, there was no change of the glomeruli detected in all of the LMWH-treated groups compared with the controls,while congestion and swel-ling in part glomeruli of group RSV were observed significantly. 4.Under electron microscope,glomerular structures of the LMWH-treated groups were almost normal compared with the control, while extensive foot process effacement was observed in group RSV under an electron microscope. 5.RSV RNA signal expressed weaker in the LMWH-treated groups than in group RSV.Conclusions Positive charged RSV destroys the glome-rular filtration barrier through its electrostatic interaction with the negative charged heparan sulfate(HS) of GBM. LMWH, as the analog of HS, charged with anion, competes with GBM HS to combine with RSV to keep the glomeruli from being infected and destroyed, and then reduce the proteinuria.

Geriatrics develops relatively late in medical education, but geriatric medical education is rapidly rising for aggravation of the aging of population.And geriatric medical education is desired of the properties medical sciences, and is also the need of the development itself. Therefore, geriatric medical education should be internationalized, to eventually form distinctive education.

A new wood-degrading fungus Monodictys asperospera(Cooke & Massee) Ellis with a high level of laccase production was chosen to study.This laccase was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation,DEAE-cellulose and sephacryl S-300.Purification of about 8.1 fold was achieved with an overall yield of 5.7%.Its molecular weight was estimated to be about 77 kD.The optimum temperature and pH of the lac-case activity were 55?C and 6.0,respectively.Kinetic studies of the laccase showed that the Km and the Vmax for using syringaldazine as substrate was 0.163 mmol/L and 0.194 mmol/(L.min),respectively.The carbo-hydrate content was 18.14%.In addition,it was found that laccase activity was significantly inhibited by Cu2+.
