Objective To study the correlations between bone fracture types and healing time in patients with osteofluorosis. Methods Thirty-seven patients with osteefluorosis and long tubular bone fracture were diagnosed in accordance with radiogram retrospectively. The fractures were divided into two groups: sclerotic and osteoporotic. Twenty four fractured patients with non osteofluorosis were included in the study as controls. All of the patients had operation(open reduction and nickelclad internal fixation). Fracture healing in patients with sclerotic and osteoporotic groups was compared with the control group after operation. Results There were notable differenees(F=4.30,P< 0.05) in term of fracture healing time among the three groups [sclerotic group:(18.4±5.3)weeks; osteoporotic group: (24.5±5.1)weeks; control group: (17.6±3.8)weeks]. Notably, there were significant differences between the osteoporotic and control groups(q=2.34,P<0.05), and between sclerotic and osteoporotic gronps(q=2.51, P<0.05). The healing time of the osteoporotic group was longer than that of sclerotic group. The constituent ratios of fracture healing in sclerotic, osteoporotic and control groups were 73.1% (19/26) ,54.5% (6/11),75.0% (18/24) respectively, and the differences among the three groups were statistically significant(X2=3.67,P<0.05). The healing rate of the osteoporotic group was lower than that of sclerotic and control groups(X2=3.12, 3.36, all P< 0.05). The constituent ratios of healing in the sclerotic, osteoporotic and control groups were 26.9% (7/26),45.5% (5/11),25.0%(6/24), respectively, and there differences among the three groups were statistically significant (X2=4.07 ,P<0.05). The delayed healing rate of the osteoperotic group was higher than those of the sclerotic and control groups(X2= 3.87,3.95, all P<0.05). Conclusions Fracture healing time of osteoporotic osteofluorosis after fracture is longer than normal, and the cause might be the loss of bone mass.

Objective To examine the effects of genetic polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 (rs1695) genes on hematologic toxicities of breast cancer patients receiving Anthracycline/Paclitaxel- based chemotherapy. Methods Multiply PCR technique and High Resolution Melting method were used to examine these 3 genes polymorphsim in female breast cancers (n=252). Results The GSTP1(rs1695) AG/GG genotype was a risk factor forⅢ-Ⅳdegree of neu-trophil toxicity when patients received Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy and Anthracycline-Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy (OR=6.111, 95%CI 1.526-24.469, P<0.05 and OR=9.257, 95%CI 2.903-29.522, P<0.01). There were no statistic differ-ence onⅢ-Ⅳdegree hematologic toxicities rates between GSTM1(+) and GSTM1(-), GSTT1(+) and GSTT1(-) patients after they receiced Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy and Anthracycline-Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy( P>0.05);There was no statistic difference onⅢ-Ⅳdegree hematologic toxicities rates between GSTM1(+) and GSTM1(-), GSTT1(+) and GSTT1(-), GSTP1AA and GSTP1AG/GG patients after they receiced Anthracycline-based chemotherapy (P>0.05). Conclusion The genetic polymorphisms in GSTP1(rs1695) can be used as a gene marker for forecasting the chemotherapy, inducing neutrope-nia toxicities in breast cancer patients receiving Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to investigate whether oral administration of collagen Ⅱ peptide (250-270)[C Ⅱ (250-270)]-cholera toxin B subunit (CTB)complex could effectively set up oral immune tolerance to collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in mice. MethodsDBA/1 mice were divided into Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳgroups. Group Ⅰ was normal control group. Collagen type Ⅱ emulsified in Freund's complete adjuvant were injected to mice of groups Ⅱ , Ⅲ and Ⅳ twice from the base of the tail. Mice of group Ⅲ were fed with C Ⅱ (250-270)-CTB covalent complex twice after the arthritis was developed. Mice of group Ⅳ were fed with C Ⅱ(250-270) and CTB mix at the 14th day after primary immunization. Visual scores and histopathologic scores of arthritis were recorded. The frequencies of arthritis between the groups were compared usingFisher's exact test. The clinical and histological severity of arthritis were analyzed by ANOVA.Results The frequencies of arthritis in groups Ⅰ , Ⅱ , Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 0, 100%, 100% and 25% respectively. Average accumulative scores of arthritis were 0, 5.0±1.7, 10.8±2.8 and 1.0±2.0 respectively. Average accum-ulative histopathological scores of arthritis were 0, 16±8, 32±13 and 7±6 respectively. Conclusion Oral administration of C Ⅱ (250-270) and CTB mix in arthritis mice after C Ⅱ immunization can suppress the onset and severity of arthritis. Oral administration of C Ⅱ (250-270)-CTB covalent complex in the acute stage of arthritis can accelerate arthritis.

Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the technical feasibility, safety and effectiveness of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA)for the treatment of severe limb ischemia caused by tibioperoneal arteries occlusion. Methods From June 2004 to May 2007,35 patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI)were treated on an intention-to-treat basis with tibioperoneal arterial PTA. Main outcome measures were technical success rate, primary patency rate, limb salvage rate and complications. Results The technical success rate of tibioperoneal arterial PTA Was 83%.Mean follow-up time was 11.5 months, primary patency rate and limb salvage rate were 57%and 82%,respectively.Mean length of tibioperoneal arterial PTA was 9.5 cm(4.5~14 cm),concurrent treatment of iliac artery or femoral-popliteal artery was carried out in 19 patients via either angioplasty or combined with stenting.There were three complications including arterial spasm and thrombosis in one, which Was relieved by thrombolysis and antispasmodics, and artery perforation in 2 cases, which was treated conservatively. Conclusion In tibioperoneal arterial occlusions in CLI patients, PTA is feasible with a high initial technical success rate and high limb salrage rate,tibioperoneal arterial PTA carries a lower morbidity and less severe complications. PTA is a safe, effective and good treatment alternative for CLI patients of tibioperoneal arterial occlusions.

Bacillus subtilis ZC-7 was obtained by implantation with N+ ions beam to B.subtilis AS1.398,and compared with the AS1.398 neutral protease,the enzyme activity of ZC-7 neutral protease was about 1 timeshigher in previous research.A neutral protease was purified from the culture of B.Subtilis ZC-7 by the procedures including amoninium sulfate precipitation,ultrafiltration,DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow chromatography and Sephadex G-75 chromatography.By multi-step purification,the ZC-7 neutral protease was purified to 78.5 folds and its yield was 27.7%,at last,the specific activity of ZC-7 neutral protease was up to 4.1?105U/mg.Analysed by SDS-PAGE,the purified protease has shown a molecular mass of about 42kDa.The Km for casein hydrolysis was 3.67?10-3?g/ml and the Vmax was 12.21?g/min.The optimum pH and temperature forhydrolysis of casein were 7.0 and 55℃,respectively.This protease was stable up to 40℃ within the pH range of 6.5 and 8.0.EDTA,isopropanol and alcohol nearly inhibited its activity while some ions such as Ca2+,Mg2+,Fe3+ can improve its activity.In addition,it could resist 1 mol/L H2O2.

Objective The clinical manifestations of cerebral infarction caused by acute basilar arterial occlusion are complex.The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between lesion location and onset symptoms of cerebral infarction caused by acute basilar arterial occlusion.Methods Fifty three patients diagnosed with cerebral infarction caused by acute artery occlusion were collected from Nanjing Stroke Registry.They were hospitalized in Jinling Hospital from January 2007 to July 2016 and were divided into sudden onset group and progressive onset group.Their clinical and digital subtraction angiography data were analyzed retrospectively.Results Middle and distal segment of the basilar artery occlusions were usually found in sudden onset group.Patients in progressive onset group were more likely to present with proximal segment of the basilar artery occlusions.Significant statistical difference was found between two groups (P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the symptoms of patients with proximal segment basilar artery occlusion tended to be progressive onset, compared with patients affected by distal segment occlusion (OR=14.77,95%CI:1.57-139.00, P=0.019).Conclusion There was significant relationship between lesion location and onset symptoms of cerebral infarction caused by acute basilar arterial occlusion.Early diagnosis and timely treatment may improve clinical prognosis in patients.
