Objective To investigate the influence of low frequency micromovement induced by an external fixator with controlled micromovement device on callus formation and fracture healing. Methods 39 sheep were involved in the study. After transverse osteotomy with a gap of 2 mm was done at the mid-shaft of both tibias, the hind limbs were fixed with unilateral external fixators with controlled micromovement device. 10 days after osteotomy, one hind limb of the sheep was randomly selected to have micromovement. According to different micromovement frequencies, the sheep were randomly divided into 3 groups: Group A, 0.5 Hertz; Group B, 1 Hertz; Group C, 5 Hertz. The micromovement had an amplitude of 0.25mm and stopped by the end of the fourth postoperative week (30 min/d). The other hind limb of each sheep did not have micromovement and served as the control. Macrostructural and histological observations, radiographic examinations, and biomechanical tests were done respectively at 4, 6, 9 weeks after osteotomy. Results Macrostructural observations and X-ray examinations revealed a large amount of callus formation with a peak at the end of the fourth postoperative week in the 3 experimental groups. Histological analysis showed faster endochondral ossification and osteoid formation in the experimental groups than in the control by the sixth postoperative week, with the highest rate in Group B (1Hz). Biomechanical tests proved that the bending stiffness in the experimental groups was superior to that in the control, with the strongest in Group B (1 Hz). Conclusions Low frequency-micromovement at the fracture sites can promote callus formation and accelerate mineralization at the early stage of fracture healing. A frequency of 1 Hz can produce the best results.

Objective To investigate the expression of lysyl oxidase like protein?2(LOXL?2)in the sera of patients with active systemic scleroder?ma(SSc)and mixed connective tissue disease(MCTD). Methods An enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay was adopted to measure LOXL?2 in the serum of 20 patients with active SSc,20 patients with active MCTD,and 20 healthy controls. The measurements among different groups was com?pared,and correlations between LOXL?2 levels and clinical manifestations of SSc and MCTD were examined. Results The levels of LOXL?2 ex?pression in MCTD and SSc groups were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05 for all groups). LOXL?2 expression is also related to the presence of skin lesions in SSc(r=0.982 P=0.001). Conclusion High serum level of LOXL?2 in these patients with active SSc and active MCTD suggests that LOXL?2 may be involved in the process of fibrosis and the resulting vasculitis in multiple organs.

Objective To investigate the effects of Dangshen (DS) extract saponins alleviating apoptosis in ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R) of renal grafts and the mechanism. Methods The I/R injury model in SD rats was established after kidney transplantation. The SD rats were randomly divided into the following 3 groups (n = 20): sham operation group, I/R model group, DS saponin intervention group. Blood urea nitrogen (Bun) and creatinine (Scr) levels were determined at the 24th h after operation; apoptosis index (AI) was detected by using TUNEL method; the expression of Bcl2 and bax mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. Results As compared with the sham operation group,the blood Bun and Scr levels were significantly increased in the I/R model and DS saponin intervention groups (P＜0. 05). As compared with the DS saponin intervention group, the blood Bun and Scr levels were significantly increased in the I/R group (P＜0.05). The AI was significantly increased in the I/R model group and DS saponin intervention group. After DS saponin intervention, the AI was decreased from 40. 28 % in the I/R model group to 28. 45 % in the DS saponin intervention group (P＜0. 05). The expression of Bcl-2 mRNA in DS saponin intervention group and I/R model group was significantly decreased as compared with the sham operation group (P＜0. 05), but that of Bax mRNA was significantly increased in the I/R model group and DS saponin intervention group as compared with the sham operation group (P＜0. 05). After DS saponin intervention, the expression of Bcl-2mRNA was increased from 0. 25 in the I/R model group to 0. 391 (P＜0. 05), and that of Bax mRNA was decreased from 0. 565 in the I/R model group to 0. 473 (P＜0. 05). Conclusion DS extract saponin could significantly alleviate apoptosis in the I/R injury of renal grafts possibly by up-regulating the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA and down-regulating the expression of Bax gene.

Objective To explore the classification of intracranial arachroid cysts(IAC) in CT cisternography(CTC) and its clinicalapplication.Methods 22 cases of IAC diagnosed by plain CT underwent CTC exminaton. IACs were classified into noncommnicatingintracranial arachnoid cyst (NCIAC) and commnicating intracranial arachnoid cyst (CIAC) by wheather or not filled with contrast media in cysts on CTC. NCIAC cases were selected and treated with neuroendoscopic fenestration.Results 15 cases of NCIAC were found by CTC examination. All the NCIAC patients had definite neurologic findings. Postoperatively, all the patients were improved or cured. Follow-upplain CT scan of 9 NCIAC cases showed the cysts were decreased markedly in size, most of the space around the cysts were replaced bynormal cerebral tissue.Conclusion (1)CTC is simple ,safe and specific for making a final diagnosis of IAC. IACs can be classified into CIAC and NCIAC by CTC findings.(2)Neurosurgical indication for IAC is NCIAC patients with symptoms.

BACKGROUND:The reasons for spinal imbalance include spinal deformity, spinal degenerative disease osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. We believe that the power factor (back muscle) plays a key role in spinal sagittal imbalance. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the reasons for spinal sagittal imbalance by observing clinical manifestations and therapeutic outcomes in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. METHODS:A total of 41 patients with osteoporotic compression fractures combined with spinal sagittal imbalance were retrospectively analyzed from January 2012 to May 2013. Al patients were subjected to percutaneous bal oon vertebroplasty under local anesthesia. Before treatment, they received bone density, standing ful-spine lateral X-ray, CT and MR imaging with injured vertebrae as the center. Using standing ful-spine radiographs, the height of anterior border of the injured vertebrae, Cobb angle of kyphosis and improved angle, wedging angle of the injured vertebrae and improved angle were measured. The patients underwent weight loading test and walking test. Preoperative and postoperative data were compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The patients affected spinal sagittal imbalance symptoms, so the walking distance was significantly shorter than that postoperatively (P<0.05). Moreover, the time of weight loading test was significantly shorter than that postoperatively (P<0.05). In standing ful-spine radiographs, the average difference of Cobb angle was (10.01±0.76)°. The mean difference of vertebral wedging improvement was (4.84±0.40)° (P<0.05). Al patients were fol owed up. Low back pain and sagittal imbalance symptoms were relieved. No severe complications appeared after percutaneous bal oon vertebroplasty. Results indicated that patients with osteoporosis compression fractures can affect the symptoms of spinal sagittal imbalance, which is not only induced by wedging of the injured vertebra. In addition, after percutaneous bal oon vertebroplasty, imbalance symptoms are apparently improved, suggesting that back pain after spinal fracture limits back muscle strength and is an important cause for spinal sagittal imbalance.
