0.05).SF-36 data revealed significant postoperative improvement(P0.05).Main complications included deep infection in one case,deterioration of spondylolisthesis in two cases,conjunctional stenosis in one case,and broken pedicle screws in two cases.Six patients received revision surgery.[Conclusion]Surgical treatment of DLSS may result in satisfactory outcome.Transpedicular screw fixation may not improve the clinical outcomes and posterior instrumentation should be adopted cautiously and properly.

Aim To study the effects of Quercetin on the angioge ne sis and cultured human vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC).Methods In vivo, the effects of Quercetin on angiogenesis induced by vascular en dothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF), were observ ed by chorioallantioic membrane (CAM) test. The effects of quercetin on proliferation of human vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) were assessed by MTT assay. The effects of Quercetin on cell cycle of HUCEC were observed by flow cytometer (FCM ).Results The angiogenesis induced by VEGF in CAM was strongly inhibited by Quercetin with 0.1, 0.05 and 0.025 mmol?L -1; The angiogen esis induced by bFGF in CAM. was strongly inhibited by Quercetin with 0.1 and 0 .05 mmol?L -1. Quercetin markedly inhibited the proliferation of HUVEC with 240,120,60 and 30 ?mol?L -1. The inhibition rate was 67.0%,58.1% ,39.7% and 20.7% respectively. Quercetin at the concentration of 240 ?mol? L -1 and 120 ?mol?L -1 resulted in S,G 2 arrest of HUVEC. Conclusion Quercetin has substantial inhibitory effects on angiogenesi s induced by VEGF and bFGF, and on proliferation of HUVEC.

Non-O1/O139 group of Vibrio cholerae can cause human acute diarrhea disease,while compared with the O1 and O139 groups;it often ignore the risk of the disease for human being.Therefore,we analyzed the molecular characteristics of 31 V.cholerae isolated from Yunnan Province.We used the agar disc diffusion method (K-B) to carry out the antibiotic sensitivity test;polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification for the detection of virulence gene;at the same time,all of strains were performed for pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST).The drug sensitivity test showed that 67.74％ strains were resistant to rifampin,29.03％ resistant to nalidixic acid and cotrimoxazole,all of the isolates were sensitive to gentamicin and ciprofloxacin;PCR results showed that all strains had the ompW gene,87.10％ strains had hly gene,25.81％ strains had rstREl tor,16.13％ strains had rstRClassical and tcpAEl tor,while CT rfbO1 and rfbO139 gene were negative;PFGE results showed that 31 strains had a trend of discrete height,the same PFGE identity pattern was not nearly found;for the analysis of MLST,we found the one new alleles of gyrB,four new alleles of mdh gene,six new alleles of metE gene,two new alleles of pntA,three new alleles of purM and four new alleles of pyrC gene.After permutation and combination,we found 17 new ST types for V.cholerae(ST273-ST289).Non-O1/O139 group V.cholerae showed a high degree of diversity,while the non-O1/O139 group of V.cholerae in Yunnan Province has a certain geographical features,which enriched the existing molecular typing system of V.cholerae.

OBJECTIVE:To preliminarily study the stability of 3 pieces of Chinese medicinal formula(CMF)after decoction, and provide reference for guaranteeing storage quality of decocted liquid and improving safety of drug use. METHODS:3 represen-tative formulas of Gegen Huangqin Huanglian decoction(A formula),Wuling powder(B formula)and Didang decoction(C for-mula)from Shanghan Zabing Lun were selected,the decocted liquid were stored under ambient temperature(25 ℃)and refrigerat-ed temperature (4 ℃) after decocting by automatic boiling-machine and packing. The microorganism,precipitation,pH and con-tents of total flavonoids,alkaloid,polysaccharide,total protein after 1,7,14,21,28 d were detected. RESULTS:Compared with the first day,contents of total flavonoids,polysaccharide in formula A at ambient temperature group were significantly in-creased on the 28th(P<0.05),content of polysaccharide in refrigerated temperature group was significantly increased(P<0.05). Content of polysaccharide in formula B at ambient temperature group was significantly decreased(P<0.05). The pH and content of total flavonoids in formula C at ambient temperature group and refrigerated temperature group were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Other indexes showed no obvious changes during the trial period. CONCLUSIONS:Under ambient temperature and refrigerated temperature,liquid ingredients of above decocted CMF will change when storing for 4 weeks. It indicates that the storage time of decocted CMF should not be more than 3 weeks.

Objective To evaluate the effects of Ro20?1724 on cognitive dysfunction induced by repetitive ketamine anesthesia in immature rats. Methods Thirty?two Sprague?Dawley rats of both sex, aged 21 days, weighing 45-55 g, were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n=8 each ) using a random number table: control group ( group C ) , ketamine group ( group K ) , ketamine+Ro20?1724 group ( group K+R) , and ketamine+anhydrous alcohol group ( group K+A) . In K, K+R and K+E groups, 70 mg∕kg ketamine was intraperitoneally injected once a day for 7 consecutive days. The equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group C. Two days after the rats were fed a common diet, 0.5 mg∕kg Ro20?1724 and the equal volume of anhydrous alcohol were injected in K+R and K+E groups, respectively, and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in K and C groups, once a day for 7 consecutive days. Morris water maze test was used to test cognitive function, and the escape latency and frequency of crossing the original platform were recorded. The rats were sacrificed after the end of behavior tests, and hippocampi were removed to detect the content of brain?derived neurotrophic factor ( BDNF) in CA1 region using enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay. Results Compared with group C, the escape latency was significantly prolonged on 1st-4th days in K and K+E groups, the escape latency was prolonged on 3rd-4th days in K+R group, and the frequency of crossing the original platform and content of BDNF in CA1 region were decreased in K, K+R and K+E groups. Compared with K group, the escape latency was significantly shortened, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was increased on 3rd-4th days, and the content of BDNF in CA1 region was increased in K+R group, and no significant changes were found in the parameters mentioned above in K+E group. Conclusion Ro20?1724 can improve cognitive dysfunction induced by repetitive ketamine anesthesia in immature rats, and enhanced production of BDNF is involved in the mechanism.

BACKGROUND:Closed reduction using proximal femoral nail antirotation gradual y becomes the golden standard in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the advantages of proximal femoral nail antirotation in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures by a new way that accurate positioning is used to modify the skin incision.
METHODS:Ninety-nine patients with intertrochanteric fractures undergoing proximal femoral nail antirotation were included in the study, including 41 cases in the modified incision group and 58 cases in the standard operation group. Length of skin incision, mean bleeding volume, mean operation time, mean hospitalization time and the Harris scores were compared between two groups postoperatively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the standard incision group, the mean bleeding volume and length of skin incision were decreased by 50.9%and 44%respectively in the modified incision group, as wel as the mean operation time was also shorter in the modified incision group (P<0.05). However, there was no difference in mean hospitalization time and Harris scores at the end of fol ow-up. The modified incision is more suitable for proximal femoral nail antirotation treatment of intertrochanteric fractures, with smal er incision, less trauma, shorter operation time and less blood loss.

To solve the problem that mostly gait analysis is independent from the treatment, this work proposes a system that integrates the functions of gait training and assessment for foot drop treatment. The system uses a set of sensors to collect gait parameters and designes multi-mode functional electrical stimulators as actuator. Body area network technology is introduced to coordinate the data communication and execution of the sensors and stimulators, synchronize the gait analysis and foot drop treatment. Bluetooth 4.0 is applied to low the power consumption of the system. The system realizes the synchronization of treatment and gait analysis. It is able to acquire and analyze the dynamic parameters of ankle, knee and hip in real-time, and treat patients by guiding functional electrical stimulation delivery to the specific body locations of patients.

Objective To study the method and clinical value of preservation of intercostobrachial nerve( ICBN) by fat dissolving meth-od during breast cancer operation. Methods The clinical data of 50 cases withⅠ~Ⅲa stage breast cancer from January 2013 to June 2013 were analyzed. Fifty patients were randomly divided into two groups,there were 26 patients in preservation group,whose ICBN were preserved by fat dissolving method during axillary lymph nodes dissection,and 24 patients in resection group,whose ICBN were not preserved by routine method during axillary lymph nodes dissection. Comparison of operation times,bleeding volume,the number of axillary lymph nodes dissection and upper arm sensory function of patients after operation between both groups was done. Results The mean time of operation was (102. 3 ± 15. 6) min in preservation group and(95. 6 ± 12. 4) min in resection group,while the number of axillary lymph nodes dissection was (19. 5 ± 8. 8 ) in preservation group and ( 19. 2 ± 9. 5 ) in resection group, with no significant difference between both groups (P>0. 05). Bleeding volume was (51. 2 ± 11. 5)mL in preservation group and (98. 5 ± 13. 4)mL in resection group,with significant differ-ences(P<0. 05). After postoperative one month,we observed upper arm sensory function of patients. It showed that 3 cases of sensory numb-ness or pain occurred in preservation group (11. 5%),20 cases of sensory abnormality occurred in resection group (83. 3%),mainly as sen-sory loss,numbness,pain or burning sensation,there was significant difference between both groups (P<0. 05). All patients were followed up half a year,patients with sensory abnormality in preservation group recovered,and recovery in resection group was not obvious,it still showed sensory abnormality in varying degrees. During the follow-up,no local recurrence or distant metastasis was found in both groups. Conclusion Preserving intercostobrachial nerve by fat dissolving method in breast cancer operation is based on conventional operation and made a few of improvements. It is simple and feasible. During the operation,we find that the axillary neurovascular is clearer,preservation of ICBN is easier. It does not affect the axillary lymph node dissection and operation time,while it can reduce incidence of postoperative sensory abnormality and improve the quality of life of patients,therefore it is worthy of clinical application.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy and adverse reactions(ADRs)of 4 kinds of the second-generation anti-psychotic drugs in the treatment of acute phase of schizophrenia. METHODS:159 patients with schizophrenia were randomly divid-ed into risperidone group(40 cases),olanzapine group(40 cases),aripiprazole group(39 cases)and ziprasidone group(40 cas-es). All groups were given routine dosage of relevant medicine by routine usage for 6 weeks. Mental status of patients were mea-sured by PANSS before treatment and after 2,4 and 6 weeks of treatment. At the same time,blood glucose,blood lipid,prolac-tion and other metabolic and biological indicators were all detected. RSESE,BARS and UKU were adopted to evaluate ADR. RE-SULTS:A total of 100 patients completed the study. Compared with aripiprazole group and ziprasidone group,risperidone and olan-zapine inhibited symptom more rapidly,with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment,body mass index and abdominal circumference of olanzapine group were significantly higher than those of other 3 groups,with statistical significance (P<0.05). Low density lipoprotein of olanzapine group was increased significantly,there was statistical significance compared to ziprasidone group and aripiprazole group(P<0.05). Prolactin level of risperidone group was significantly higher than those of other 3 groups, while that of aripiprazole group was significantly lower than those of other 3 groups,with statistical significance(P<0.05). ADRs of 4 drugs were mild or moderate,most of whom could be alleviated by symptomatic treatment. CONCLUSIONS:In the treatment of acute phase schizophrenia,4 drugs of the second-generation have similar curative effect in symptoms control,among which ris-peridone and olanzapine inhibit positive symptom more rapidly while more ADRs that related to lipid and glucose metabolism and prolactin also show. Aripiprazole and ziprasidone induce less ADRs relatively,and patients show better tolerability. Physicians should consider all kinds of factors in drugs selection,and make individualized treatment plan.
