Tumor cells obtain energy mainly by glycolysis to maintain growth and proliferation. It is related to the DNA mutations of mitochondria and anti-oncogene mutations. Inhibition of glycolysis can inhibit proliferation and kill tumor cells. The rate-limiting enzyme of glycolysis and hypoxia inducible factor may be the new targets for cancer therapy.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder for perimembranous ventricular septal defect with pseudoaneurysm. Methods During the period from March 2008 to March 2013 at Shanghai Yodak Cardiothoracic Hospital , interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder was carried out in a total of 96 patients with perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) complicated by pseudoaneurysm. The patient’s age varied from 2 years to 36 years. Before the procedure, routine left ventricular angiography and ascending aortic angiography were carried out. Left ventricular angiography and ascending aortic angiography as well as the transthoracic ultrasonography were performed immediately after the procedure to observe the therapeutic results. Follow-up checkups with transthoracic ultrasonography, EKG and chest X-ray film were conducted at one week as well as at one, 3, 6 and 9 months after the surgery were conducted. Results Successful occlusion of VSD was obtained in 93 patients, with a success rate of 96.8% (93/96). After the surgery, small amount of shunt flow was detected in 8 patients, which disappeared within 48 hours in 7 patients, and in the other one the shunt flow disappeared one month later which was confirmed by follow-up examination. After the treatment, complete right bundle branch block occurred in 4 patients, complete left bundle branch block in 5 patients, and transientⅢdegree atrioventricular block in one patient. The conduction block disappeared at the time of discharge in all patients. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) decreased from preoperative (47.5 ± 5.2) mm to postoperative (45.2 ± 5.1) mm, the difference was statistically significant (t = 18.33, P < 0.01). During the follow-up period lasting for 9 months, no delayed cardiac arrhythmia, valve damage or sudden death occurred. Conclusion For the treatment of perimembranous ventricular septal defect with pseudoaneurysm, interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder is safe and effective with excellent mid-term effect. Based on the imaging findings, including the location, shape, ruptured orifice, number of the perimembranous pseudoaneurysm as well as the distance between the pseudoaneurysm and the aortic valve, to select suitable occluder and proper occlusion site is the key to ensure a successful surgery.

BACKGROUND:The good rotational alignment of femoral prosthesis was very important in total knee arthroplasty. The research has shown that the posterior condylar angle was important to determine the alignment. The posterior condylar angle is the angle between the posterior condylar axis and the femoral epicondylar axis. MRI can clearly show the condylar cartilage, the projections of lateral epicondyle and the medial epicondyle depression, thus ensuring accuracy of measurement data. OBJECTIVE:To measure the posterior condylar angle of knee joint in the northern part of Baoding City in China, and to provide image evidence for identifying the rotational alignment of femoral prosthesis during total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:The knee was extended on a neutral position when MRI machine was applied to scan knee joint. The scanning plane was perpendicular to the mechanical axis of the knee. The best T1 axial plane of the knee was chosen, and two observers analyzed images independently. Existence rate of femoral medial epicondyle was observed using Bravo viewer 6.0 imaging software. The posterior condylar angle between posterior condylar axis and the femoral condyle axis was measured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The posterior condylar angle was (2.73±1.28)° in males and (2.35±1.37)° in females on average, which did not show significant difference. The results showed that the MRI had great superiority in measuring the posterior condylar angle. The variability of the epicondylar axis was smal in total knee arthroplasty. Posterior condylar angle can be referenced to position femoral prosthesis and to avoid the complications after knee replacement.

Objective To identify risk factors for wound complications related to internal fixation of distal tibial fracture.Methods A total of 125 patients undergone open reduction and internal fixation of the distal tibial fracture between January 2008 and December 2011 were enrolled.There were 72 men and 53 women with mean age of 41.46 years.Factors contributing to operative wound complications assessed were demographic characteristics (age,gender,and smoking history),types of fracture,operative time,time from injury to operation,and concomitant diseases (diabetes and peripheral vascular disease).Patients with wound complications were defined as those requiring dressing care and oral or intravenous antibiotics or those requiring further surgical treatment.Results At follow-up,wound complications were recorded including 1 patient (0.8％) had surgical debridement and 10 patients (8.0％) had dressing care and oral or intravenous antibiotic therapy.Logistic regression analysis identified risk factors for wound complications were open fracture (OR =23.077,95％ CI 2.672-199.342,P ＜0.01) and age (OR =1.078,95％ CI 1.011-1.150,P ＜ 0.05).Otherwise,following factors exhibited no significant correlation with wound complications:age,body mass index,smoking history,types of fracture,multiple injury or not,and operative time.Conclusion Patients with older age or open fracture present an increased risk of wound complications after operation and need special concern.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of wind-expelling method of acupuncture and Chinese herbs for sudden deafness.
Methods:A total of 90 cases with sudden deafness were randomly divided into three groups based upon their visit order and random digital table, an acupuncture plus Chinese herbs (APCH) group, an acupuncture group, and a Western medication (WM) group, 30 cases in each group. The APCH group was treated by puncturing Fengchi (GB 20), Fengfu (GV 16) and Fengmen (BL 12), without retaining the needles, and then by puncturing Zhongwan (CV 12), Guanyuan (CV 4), Qihai (CV 6) and Tianshu (ST 25) with reinforcing technique after arrival of the needling sensation, and the needles were retained for 30 min, plus oral administration of wind-expelling Chinese herbs. The acupuncture group was treated with the acupoints selected by syndrome differentiation in reference to the textbook of Acupuncture and Moxibustion Science. The WM group was treated by intravenous infusion of Alprostadil injection, Adenosine Disodium Triphosphate and Coenzyme A and muscular injection of Vitamin B12 and Vitamin B1. The decibel values of hearing loss before and after treatment were respectively recorded and analyzed comparatively.
Results:In the intra-group comparison after treatment among the three groups, the decibel values of hearing loss all declined, with statistically significant differences (allP<0.05). After treatment, the decibel value of hearing loss in the APCH group was better than those in the acupuncture group (P<0.05) and the WM group (P<0.05). The total effective rate was respectively 83.3% in the APCH group, 60.0% in the acupuncture group and 56.7% in the WM group. The total effective rate in the APCH group was better than those in other two groups (bothP<0.05).
Conclusion:The therapeutic effect was better for sudden deafness by wind-expelling method of acupuncture and Chinese herbs than by acupuncture alone or by Western medication.
