Objective To evaluate the clinical curative efficacy and to explore the leaking pathway of bone cement to verte‐bral canal through treating osteoporotic vertebral burst fractures (OVBF) by using percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP) .Methods Ac‐cording to AO classification ,45 OVBF patients with 45 vertebras in the Erdos Central Hospital from October 2005 to May 2013 were treated by using PKP .The pathway of bone cement leaking to spinal canal and intervertebral space was determined by postop‐erative CT plain scan .The postoperative vertebral height ,Cobb angle and spinal stenosis improvement were measured .The change of VAS were compared between before and after operation .Results There were 2 cases of bone cement leaking to spinal canal .The leaking passway was mainly through basivertebral foramen .The leakage of bone cement to superior intervertebral space was higher than that to lower intervertebral space .The recovery of the vertebral height ,correction of Cobb angle and pre‐and post‐operative VAS scores had statistically significant differences (P<0 .05) .The spinal stenosis rate had no statistical difference between before and after operation(P>0 .05) .Conclusion PKP for treating OVBF is not a contraindication .The main pathway of bone cement lea‐king to spinal canal is basivertebral foramen after the treatment of OVBF by using PKP ,the leakage to intervertebral space is relat‐ed with the endplate damage .

Objective To investigate the effects of iodine excess on spleen cell viability,lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage,mitochondrial superoxide production and peroxiredoxin (Prx)3 expression in methallothionein Ⅰ / Ⅱ knockout (MT-Ⅰ / Ⅱ KO)mice.Methods Spleen cell suspensions were prepared from six to eight-week old and healthy male MT-Ⅰ / Ⅱ KO mice and wild type (WT) mice; the cell number was adjusted to 5 × 107/L and the cells were plated in 96-well plates (100 μl each well); the cells were exposed to various concentrations of KI (0,10-4,10-3,10-2 mol/L) and 10-3 mol/L H2O2,respectively,for two hours,and control group did not give KI nor H2O2.Cell viability was assayed by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) colorimetric method.Cell damage was detected by chemical colorimetric method.Mitochondrial superoxide production in the spleen cells was measured by flow cytometry.Western blotting technology was used to investigate the expression of Prx3.Results In both MT-Ⅰ/Ⅱ KO and WT mice,the differences of cell viability,LDH leakage,mitochondrial superoxideproduction and the expression of Prx3 of spleen cells among the treatment groups were statistically significant (F =357.92,71.03,130.36,10.36,179.58,26.92,187.43,and 7.16,all P < 0.05).Compared to the control group [(100.00 ± 2.00)%,(100.00 ± 1.63)%,(3 202.22 ± 85.63),(3 161.51 ± 144.49)U/L,43.82 ± 1.56,38.60 ± 2.81,0.61 ± 0.09,0.50 ± 0.08],cell viability of 10-4,10-3,10-2 mol/L KI treatment and 10-3 mol/L H2O2 groups [(80.77 ± 1.86)%,(89.89 ± 2.90)%,(76.08 ± 1.92)%,(87.66 ± 1.74),(73.26 ± 1.86)%,(84.30 ± 2.23)%,(66.22 ± 1.71)%,(70.80 ± 1.49)%] was decreased (all P < 0.05); LDH leakage [(3 880.00 ± 190.62),(3 431.17 ± 170.45),(4 178.33 ± 170.43),(3 598.63 ± 189.09),(4 388.61 ± 123.79),(3 863.72 ± 195.64),(4 615.28 ± 196.17),(4 148.12 ± 195.81)U/L] was increased significantly (all P< 0.05); and mitochondrial superoxide production in the spleen cells (53.83 ± 3.22,47.03 ± 1.60,58.92 ± 4.00,50.48 ± 2.59,72.72 ± 2.14,68.53 ± 2.97,80.76 ± 4.11,75.26 ± 3.41) was increased significantly (all P < 0.05); Prx3 expressions in 10-3、10-2 mol/LKI and 10-3 mol/L H2O2 treatment groups (0.82 ± 0.12,0.65 ± 0.12,0.96 ± 0.15,0.73 ± 0.16,1.04 ± 0.13,0.85 ± 0.16) significantly increased (all P < 0.05),the differences of Prx3 expressions between 104 mol/L KI groups (0.73 ± 0.15,0.55 ± 0.09),and control groups were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05).In 104,10-3,10-2 mol/L KI and 10-3 mol/L H2O2 treatment groups,cell viability of MT-Ⅰ/Ⅱ KO mice spleen was lower than that of WT mice (t =6.47,10.93,9.30 and 4.96,all P < 0.05); LDH leakage was higher than that of WT mice (t =4.30,5.58,5.56 and 4.13,all P < 0.05); mitochondria superoxide production was higher than that of WT mice (t =4.64,4.33,2.80 and 2.52,all P < 0.05); Prx3 expression was higher than that of WT mice (t =2.54,2.37,2.59 and 2.27,all P < 0.05).Conclusions KI may decline the cell viability,increase the leakage of LDH and increase the production of mitochondrial superoxide production and Prx 3 expression,which are much more significant in MT-Ⅰ /Ⅱ KO mice,suggesting that MT Ⅰ /Ⅱ has some antioxidative effect in high concentration of iodide induced oxidative stress in the spleen.

BACKGROUND: A new material of porous carbonated hydroxyapatite cement (PCHC) is discovered using foaming technique.The new material characterizes original solidification and forms porous structure.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the biomechanical effect of PCHC on repairing cancellous bone defect.METHODS: Among 30 New Land rabbits, 25 ones were considered as surgery group, whose bilateral condyles of femur was used to establish bone defect model (5.5 mm diameter and 12 mm depth). PCHC was implanted into the left side, which was considered as the experimental group, and carbonated hydroxyapatite cement (CHC) was implanted into the right side, which was considered as the control group. Another 5 rabbits were used as normal mechanical control group. Both PCHC and CHC were dip in simulated body fluid (SBF) to test mechanical intension. PCHC and CHC were then implanted into muscles of back in the surgery group. Rabbits Were-sacrificed after 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 weeks postoperatively. Mechanical analysis was tested following intra-bone and intramuscular implantation, and compressive strength was then tested following dipping into SBF.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: PCHC: Intra-bone mechanical strength was lower at 2 weeks, the lowest at 4 weeks, but then closed to intension of normal cancellated bone at 8 weeks, higher than normal cancellated bone at 12 weeks, and recovered to the level of normal cancellated bone at 16 weeks. CHC: Intra-bone strength was higher than that of PCHC at 2 weeks, decreased at 4 weeks, gradually increased at 8, 12, and 16 weeks, but still lower than intension of normal cancallated bone. Compressive strength of both PCHC and CHC was not changed following dipping in SBF; however, compressive strength was changed remarkably following intramuscular implantation. The results demonstrated that PCHC characterized by immobilization in situ and mechanical supporting. Thus it could be used for one kind of bone substitute material to repair the bone defect.

In order to culture the qualified clinicians, we should think about how to improve the quality of clinical practice of obstetrics and gynecology. It is of great importance to emphasize the teachers and students to value the teaching work together. Importance should be attached to the advantage of subject of academy, to make the clinical practice closer to practical, which has a perfect effect and will benefit our work.
