OBJECTIVE To investigate the infection rate and observe the healing courses of the incision after the open procedures of the suppurative appendicitis,which was managed by positioning drainage tube under the fatty layer of the incision.METHODS The infection rate,manifestation of the incision,and the mean time in hospital were observed after the drainage tube in the incision was employed.RESULTS The infection rate(9.30%) and the mean time in hospital(6.63?1.95days)dropped significantly(P

Objective Rheological properties and gelation properties of agar were investigated. Methods The gelling point,melting point and the gel strength of agar were detected with MCR101 rheometer and TA texture testing instrument. Results and Conclusion Rheological properties of agar were affected by its concentration ,temperature and the addition of salt (such as NaCl ,CaCl2) and sucrose. Apparent viscosity exhibited shear thinning behavior following the power law model. Apparent viscosity increased with the increase of concentration,and decreased with the rise of temperature. The decrease in viscosity followed an Arrhenius temperature dependence. Agar solutions exhibited typical "weak gel" properties by small strain oscillatory measurements. The results indicated that the agar solution was characterized as a gel properties ,and which could form a kind of heat reversible gel. The gelling point of agar was lower than its melting point. The gel strength of agar could be affected by its gel time,and the addition of salt (such as NaCl,CaCl2) and sucrose.

Objective To analyze the effect of both limited selective posterior rhizotomy(LSPR)and limited selective soft tissue release(LSTR)on healing motor function related to spasmo-cerebral palsy in both legs.Methods Thirty-eight cases CP with LSPR and LSTR were collected in the past 3 years;21 males,17 females;aged 3.0-8.11 years old,on the average of 5.11 years old.Perioperative motor function were evaluated according to motor function scores.Results LSPR and LSTR played a role in improving motor function obviously,and had little difference in orthomorphia after SPR for 6 months.Conclusion LSPR and LSTR may improve cramp and abnormality in both legs,and enhance motor function,so the secondary operation agony can be avoided,and the family economic burden relived.

Mild-symptom erectile dysfunction (MSED) is commonly seen in clinical practice, but receives inadequate attention from both the patients and clinicians. Increasing researches have indicated that MSED is associated with not only unhealthy living habits and psychological factors but also the early progression of endothelial, metabolic and endocrine diseases. The diagnosis and treatment of MSED should be based on the relevant guidelines, with consideration of both its specific and common features. The therapeutic principle is a combination of integrated and individual solutions aimed at the causes of the disease. Drug intervention should be initiated if psychological therapy fails. Negligence of MSED may affect the quality of life of the patients and their partners, and what's more, might delay the management of some other severe underlying diseases. Adequate attention to the early diagnosis and treatment for MSED is of great significance for a deeper insight into the etiology of ED, the prevention of potential cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, and the improvement of the overall health of males.

BACKGROUND:At present,there are many established femoral finite element studies,but previous studies focused on femoral biomechanics of the outside are few.OBJECTIVE:To establish three-dimensional finite element model of structure of the proximal femur,and to analyze its biomechanics in normal standing position to provide reasonable evidence for clinical application.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:A three-dimensional finite element model analysis was performed in General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from December 2008 to April 2009.PARTICIPANTS:One male volunteer aged 30 years was enrolled at General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University.Femur lesion or injury was excluded by means of X-ray.METHODS:The primitive femur CT data were adopted according to Dicom 3.0 standard in Mimics so as to obtain the primitive three-dimensional femur model which was established via threshold defining,region enlarging and morphological performing.The primitive model was remeshed and combined with ANSYS software to create a final finite-element model.The model obtained by using the Mimics was loaded with 200 N vertical loading to check out the difference of the stress distribution.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Using 200 N as the external load in the vertical direction,the Vonmises stress distribution of the femur was detected.RESULTS:The applications of Mimics and Ansys software could create a finite element model of proximal femur.It was found that the correspondent relationship between stress and structure in proximal femur was verified.CONCLUSION:Mimics can build more three-dimensional finite element models in line with the proximal femoral mechanical structure and mechanical properties.The mechanical properties of the femur are more credible,and the results of the analysis support the clinical application of the guidance.

Objective To investigate the effects and possible mechanism of Fructus lycii on renal calcium oxalate stone formation in rats. Methods Wistar rats were divided into several groups according to different stone inducer (cigarette smoking, ethylene glycol solution drinking or combination of both), either Fructus lycii infusion interference or not and different interfering concentrations (10% and 25%). Besides, a blank control group was set. After treatment for 40 d, 24 h urine was collected, and renal tissue samples were obtained. The concentrations of calcium, oxalate and citric acid in urine were measured. The deposit condition of calcium oxalate crystals in nephric tubules was observed and scored. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and activity of total-superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) in renal tissues were detected. Apoptosis cells in kidney were observed with TUNEL staining, and index of apoptosis was calculated. Results Compared with blank control group, the urine calcium concentration in group of combination of cigarette smoking and ethylene glycol solution drinking were significantly higher (P<0.01), the scores of calcium oxalate crystals in renal tubules, the levels of MDA in renal tissues and the index of apoptosis of renal tubule epithelial cells in groups of ethylene glycol solution drinking and combination with smoking were higher, while the concentrations of citric acid in urine and activity of T-SOD in renal tissues were lower. Ten percent and 25% Fructus lycii infusion significantly decreased the urine concentrations of calcium in group of combination of cigarette smoking and ethylene glycol solution drinking (P<0.01), decreased the scores of calcium oxalate crystals in renal tubules, the levels of MDA in renal tissues and the index of apoptosis of renal tubule epithelial cells in groups of ethylene glycol solution drinking and combination with smoking, and increased the concentrations of citric acid in urine and activity of T-SOD in renal tissues. There was no significant dose-effect relationship between two concentrations of Fructus lycii infusion. Conclusion Fructus lycii infusion can effectively inhibit the formation of renal calcium oxalate stone in rats with smoking and/or ethylene glycol drinking by reducing the free radicals and apoptosis of renal tissue, decreasing the concentration of elements for stone formation and increasing the concentration of elements for inhibition of stone formation in urine.

Kinematical alignment during total knee arthroplasty is an emerging process, and draws more and more attentions from scholars. Knee joint is close to normal joint after TKA through kinematical alighment, which has good clinical results and functional scores, and not increase failure probility. Thus, it may increase joint stress of patella-femur joint, lead to patellar maltracking and increase abrasion. The paper summarized defination and basical principle, operative method, clinical outcomes and deficiency of kinematical alignment during total knee arthroplasty, in order to choose a better way for kinematical alignment during total knee arthroplasty.
