Objective To compare the treatment of displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures by homeopathic closed leverage anatomical plate with compression bolt through small posterior lateral approach vs.traditional open reduction and internal fixation.Methods A retrospective case control study was made on 98 cases of displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures admitted from September 2012 to May 2015.According to the random number table,the subjects were assigned to homeopathic closed leverage anatomical plating with compression bolt through small posterior lateral approach (experiment group,58 cases,66 sides) and open reduction and internal fixation through L-shape approach (control group,40 cases,45 sides).Experiment group consisted of 50 male and eight females cases aging from 27-56 years (mean,41.9 years),and the Sanders classification was 40 cases of type Ⅱ,24 type Ⅲ and two type Ⅳ.Control group consisted of 36 male and four female cases aging from 25-58 years (mean,43.7 years),and the Sanders classification was 25 cases of type Ⅱ,18 type Ⅱ and two type Ⅳ.Operation time,bone reduction,postoperative Bohler's angle,width of the calcaneum,and incision healing were recorded.Functional outcomes were evaluated with Maryland hindfoot scoring system at last follow-up.Results Operation time was (52.6 ± 11.2) min in experiment group,significantly shorter than that in control group [(86.4 ± 14.1) min] (P ＜ 0.01).All cases were followed up from 18-50 months (mean,30.8 months).Reduction of the calcaneal posterior facet in 53 sides (80％) was graded as nearly anatomical in experiment group,and 38 sides (84％) in control group (P ＞ 0.05).Postoperative Bohler's angle was (28.0 ± 6.2) ° in experiment group,and (26.8 ± 7.0) ° in control group (P ＞ 0.05).Width of the calcaneum was (31.3 ±3.6)mm in experiment group and (34.9 ± 4.0)mm in control group (P ＜ 0.01).All cases presented satisfactory shape of the calcaneus without lateral-side impact syndrome.No case had wound infection and incision-edge necrosis in experimental group,while two cases of superficial wound infection and three cases of incision-edge necrosis were found in control group (P ＜ 0.01).At last follow-up,Maryland hindfoot score was (87.1 ± 7.6)points in experiment group and (84.9 ± 9.1)points in control group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Homeopathic percutaneous leverage and anatomical plate with compression bolt through small posterior lateral approach is an effective method for treatment of displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures,for it has advantages of minimal invasion,less operation time,good reduction and function,and less wound complications.

BACKGROUND: Both biological and physical methods contribute to the repair of white meniscal tears, so the combined use will be better. OBJECTIVE: To study the influence of radiofrequency combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the repair of white meniscal tears. METHODS: Forty-eight adult New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into four groups, including simple suture, radiofrequency, PRP, and combination groups, and then the model of medial meniscus posterior root tears was established in all experimental animals. The simple suture group underwent interrupted mattress suture; the radiofrequency group was treated with radiofrequency (20 W, 45 ℃) after suture; the PRP group received the intra-articular injection of PRP after suture; the combination group was firstly treated with radiofrequency after suture, and then underwent the intra-articular injection of PRP. The gross and histological changes of the meniscus were observed, and the expression levels of transforming growth factor β1, vascular endothelial growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor were detected at 3 and 12 weeks postoperatively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At 12 weeks after operation, the simple suture group showed no healing; the radiofrequency and PRP groups healed partially; and the combination group healed completely, and chondrocytes and collagen fibers arranged regularly. There was a significant difference in the healing rate between combination and simple suture groups (P=0.003). At 3 weeks postoperatively, the expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor in the radiofrequency, PRP and combination groups were obviously higher than that in the simple suture group, which decreased markedly at the 12th week. At 3 weeks postoperatively, the expression level of platelet-derived growth factor was increased in all groups, especially in the PRP and combination groups. The PRP group showed the highest level of transforming growth factor β1 at 12 weeks postoperatively. These results manifest that the combination of radiofrequency and PRP promotes the repair of white meniscal tears by increasing the cell proliferation, cell mitosis and angiogenesis.

Background Recently,small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) procedure is used to correct myopia.The clinical safety and efficiency of SMILE have been approved,but its predictability to corneal ablation depth is brought into focus.Objective This study was to compare the predictability of ablation depth in central cornea between SMILE and femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) for myopia.Methods A nonrandomized controlled clinical study was performed.Two hundred and seventy eyes of 135 myopic patients who were going to receive corneal refractive surgery were included in Beijing Tongren Hospital from October 2015 to May 2016.SMILE and FS-LASIK were performed on 138 eyes of 69 patients and 132 eyes of 66 patients matched in demography respectively under the informed consent.Central corneal thickness was measured by RTVue FD-OCT before and 1 week after surgery.The refractive power,actual ablation depth (difference of central corneal thickness before and after surgery) and central corneal cutting error (difference between theoretically expected ablation depth and real ablation depth) were intergrouply compared,and the correlation of real ablation depth with theoretically expected ablation depth was assessed.Results No significant difference was found in spherical power,astigmatic power and spherical equivalent after surgery between SMILE group and FS-LASIK group (t =-1.826,-1.405,-1.420,all at P＞0.05).The actual ablation depth was (76.96± 15.27)μm in the SMILE group,which was significant lower than (96.76± 16.52) μm of theoretically expected ablation depth (t =-23.016,P ＜ 0.01);however,there was no significant difference in the FS-LASIK group between actual and expected ablation depth ([77.92 ± 18.69] μm versus [77.42± 15.60] μm) (t =-0.604,P =0.547).The central corneal cutting error was (20.55 ± 8.51) μm in the SMILE group and (7.17±5.97) μm in the FS-LASIK group,showing a significant difference between them (t=14.950,P＜0.01).The positive linear correlations were seen between actual and expected ablation depth in both SMILE group and FS-LASIK group (r=0.799,0.867,both at P＜0.01).The actual ablation depth was increased over expected ablation depth,with the regression equations of Y=3.892+0.749X in the SMILE group and Y=3.443 + 0.957X in the FS-LASIK group.Conclusions The actual corneal ablation depth is less than expected corneal ablation depth in SMILE procedure,while in FS-LASIK procedure,the actual corneal ablation depth appears to be consistent with the expected one,inferring a good predictability in corneal ablation depth in FS-LASIK surgery.

AIM: To investigate the differentiative and apoptotic effect of CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides on HL60 cells and its mechanism. METHODS: After HL60 cells were exposed to synthetic CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides, non-CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides or ZpG-oligodeoxynucleotides for 72 hours, respectively, the inhibition of HL60 cells were detected using MTT method, NBT test was used and CD14 expression were determined. Apoptosis of HL60 cells were mensurated with flow cytometry and transmission electron microscope, and caspase 3, Bcl-2 and Bax expression of HL60 cells treated with oligodeoxynucletides were detected using immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Treatment with CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides induced the differentiation and apoptosis in HL60 cells, but non-CpG-oligodeoxynu- cleotide and ZpG-oligodeoxynucleotide had no effect on HL60 cells. CONCLUSION: CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides can induce the differentiation and apoptosis in HL60 cells. It may provide a new approach for the immunological treatment of leukemia.
