OBJECTIVETo study clinical effects of inversive LISS (less invasive stabilization system, LISS) plate combined with steel wire for the treatment of Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures.
METHODSFrom January 2009 to Janurary 2012, 11 patients with Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures were treated with inversive LISS plate combined with steel wire, including 8 males and 3 females, ranging in age from 35 to 61 years old (averaged, 51 years old). Causes of injury: 8 patients caused by accident and 3 patients caused by falling down. According to X-ray examination, all the patients were type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures and were treated with LISS plate combined with steel wire. Merle d'Aubigne scores were used to evaluate therapeutic effects on hip.
RESULTSThe mean period of follow-up was 16 months (ranged, 12 to 28 months). All the patients obtained bone union for average 3.8 months (ranged from 3 to 4.3 months). There were no complications such as deep infection,deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and bone nonunion. According to Merle d'Aubigne scores, 7 patients got an excellent result and 4 good.
CONCLUSIONInversive LISS plate combined with steel wire for the treatment of Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures is satisfactory, Which can provide stable fixation for fracture end and provide an ideal internal fixation method for treatment of this kind of fractures in the future.

0.05). Anastomotic leak was found in a intraoperative radiotherapy patient on the 9th day after surgery as slipping of the residual stomach into the field had been observed after completon of the intraoperative radiation.The patients recovered unevertfully after surgical repair. No radiation induced mediastinnitis,myelopathy or pneumonitis developed in patients who survived over 2 years.Conclusion IORT,as one of the methods of combination treatment for esophageal carcinoma, is benefitial in local control. Its efficacy,being closely related to the sige of the dose and radiation field, warrants further investigation.

Objective To understand antimicrobial resistance of Enterobacteriaceae strains and distribution charac-teristics of carbapenemase-resistant Enterobacteriaceae(CRE)in Xijing Hospital in 2015,so as to provide basis for rational use of antimicrobial agents in clinic. Methods Specimens from infected inpatients and outpatients in Xijing Hospital in January-December 2015 were performed pathogenic culture,isolation and identification. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed with Kirby-Bauer method,carbapenemase confirmatory test was conducted with modified Hodge test,antimicrobial resistance of Enterobacteriaceae was statistically analyzed. Results A total of 4166 pathogenic strains were isolated in 2015,1554 (37.30% )of which were Enterobacteriaceae strains,the top 5 isolated pathogens were Escherichiacoli(E. coli),Klebsiella pneumoniae(K. pneumoniae),Enterobactercloacae (E. cloacae),Proteusmirabilis,and Enterobacteraerogenes. Of 787 E. coli strains,581(73.82% )were extend-ed-spectrumβ-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing strains;of 367 K. pneumoniae strains,182 (49.59% )were ESBLs-producing strains. E. coli and K. pneumoniae had the highest resistance rates to cefazolin,which were 93.14% and 78.48% respectively. A total of 81 (5.21% )CRE were detected,K. pneumoniae,E. cloacae,and E. coli were 41 ,27,and 13 strains respectively;strains were mainly isolated from patients in departments of neurosurgery(n=42),gastroenterology(n= 9),and neurology(n= 8). 1.02% (8/787)of E. coli and 3.27% (12/367)of K. pneu-moniae were multidrug-resistant. Conclusion Enterobacteriaceae accounted for a higher proportion of pathogenic bacteria causing HAI,the detection rate of ESBLs-producing strains remains high,the isolation rate of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae is higher than that of last year,especially K. pneumoniae.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with mild and moderate carpal tunnel syndrome.Methods:Eighty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome were randomly divided into two groups with 40 patients in each group ( n=40). In the course of the treatment, 2 patients in each group dropped out, which means 38 patients in each group were included. All patients were instructed to actively control blood glucose The control group was given Mecobalamin tablets orally, while the treatment group was given electroacupuncture of Daling and Neiguan on the affected side based onthe control group for 6 weeks. The degree of pain was assessed by VAS, and the severity of clinical symptoms was assessed by the symptom scale of Boston carpal tunnel questionnaire (BCTQ). The sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV), the amplitude of sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) and the distal motor latency (DML) were detected by EMG evoked potential instrument. The clinical efficacy was evaluated and adverse events were recorded. Results:The total effective rate was 81.6% (31/38) in the treatment group and 60.5% (23/38) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=5.094, P=0.024). After the treatment, the scores of VAS and BCTQ in the treatment group were lower than those of the control group ( t=2.639, 2.790, P=0.010, 0.007); DML (3.62 ± 0.19 ms vs. 4.00 ± 0.17 ms, t=68.891) in the treatment group was lower than that of the control group ( P<0.01), while SCV (47.36 ± 0.18 m/s vs. 42.34 ± 0.14 m/s, t=97.163) and SNAP (14.74 ± 0.18 μV vs. 12.10 ± 0.16 μV, t=51.434) in the treatment group were higher than those of the control group ( P<0.01). During the treatment, no serious adverse events occurred in two groups. Conclusions:Electroacupuncture is safe and effective in the treatment of mild and moderate carpal tunnel syndrome with type 2 diabetes. It can reduce the degree of pain and improve the symptoms of wrist joint.

Objective: To study the expression of the proliferating c el l nuclear antigen (PCNA) and cell nuclear area in the different layers of oral d ysplasia epithelium. Methods: S-P immunohistochemical method an d morphometric technique(computer image measurement method) were used to examine the PCNA and cell nuclear area in the different layers of the normal oral epith elium(NOR) in 8 cases and abnormal oral epithelium in 46 cases including mild d ysplasia(LD), moderate dysplasia(MD), severe dysplasia(SD) and well-differentia ted squamous cell carcinoma(SCC). Results: The positive PCNA sta ining cells in normal epithelium was found mainly in the basal layer. The prolif erating index(PI) in the whole layer of abnormal oral epithelium were increased (P05). PI in the basal la yer of abnormal epithelium was higher than in NOR (P0.05). PI in the spi nosum layer and superficial layer (granulosum and lucidum layer) increased with the development of the lesions, The cell nuclear area in the basal and spinosum layer of the abnormal epithelium increased(P

The sensor of naringin(NG), a non-electroactive substance, was prepared based on the molecular imprinting technique.Using cyclic voltammetry technique (scan rate is 100 mV/s), the naringin imprinting sensitive film, poly-o-aminophenol was coated on the surface of a graphite electrode in the presence of naringin which was considered as the template, and characterized by SEM and X-ray reflective spectrophotometry (XRR).Using K_3Fe(CN)_6 as an electroactive marker, the electrochemical properties of the NG sensor were investigated by CV, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), differential pulse voltammmetric and chronoamperometric.The results showed that the imprinted electrode was significantly different from the non imprinted electrode in morphologies and electrochemical properties, and a linear relationship between the peak current and the naringin concentration was found in the range of 6.0 × 10 ~(-5)-1.4 × 10 ~(-4) mol/L with a detec tion limit of 1.6 × 10 ~(-5) mol/L.Moreover, the imprinted electrode exhibited a good selectivity and rapid response to the naringin template molecules, as well as an excellent reproducibility(RSD = 1.8 %, n=5).
