Objective To explore the treatment methods of periprosthetic femur fracture after hip arthroplasty.Methods 9 patiens with periprosthetic femur fracture after hip arthroplasty were selected.According to Vancouver classification,there were 1 case in A type,5 cases in B1 type,2 cases in B2 type,1 case in C type.One case were treated by nonoperative method and the other 8 cases were treated by operative method,including 5 cases treated by memory alloy embracing fixator and internal fixation,3 cases treated by long stem prosthetic replacement and iliac bone graft.Results 8 cases were followed up for 8 to 21 months,average 14.2 months.All fractures were united well with good alignment and internal fixation failure except one prosthesis loosing was observed.Conclusion For periprosthetic femur fracture after hip arthroplasty,Vancouver classification methods include the location and stability of the fracture,prosthesis loosening,and the femur in bone mass is importance to the clinical treatment.As to A type fracture,prosthesis is stable,and the conservative treatment can be choosed.As to B1 and B2 type fracture,the aggressive surgical treatment can be choosed based on patients' general condition.If prosthesis loosening after artificial hip arthroplasty,the patients should treated with long stem prosthetic replacement.

Objective To discuss the significance of the application of real-time quantitative PCR(RQ PCR)for diagnosis and guidance therapy of cytomegalovirus(CMV)infection after allo- hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT).Methods Thirty-three patients were undergo- ing allo-HSCT.After hematopoietic reconstitution,patients'peripheral blood samples were detected for CMV DNA by RQ-PCR periodically.Anti-viral therapy was begun,attenuated and stopped ac- cording to the results of CMV DNA detection.The effects of anti-viral therapy and patients' clinical results were observed.Results CMV DNA was detected in blood samples from 13 of 33 patients. There were 21 episodes in these patients.Only 1 episode wasn't controlled hecause the patient gave up the therapy.CMV DNA copies were disappeared soon or decreased and then disappeared during anti-viral therapy in the others'.Patients which had symptoms and/or dysfunction of organs were cured too.Each course of anti-viral therapy was shorter than ordinary course.Conclusions CMV in- fection can he diagnosed as early as possible by RQ PCR.To begin,attenuate and stop anti-viral ther- apy according to the results of RQ-PCR is safe.The course is shortened and the side effects of anti vi- ral drugs were attenuated.

The experiment's aim was to optimize the processing technology of Xanthii Fructus which through comparing the difference of UPLC fingerprint and contents of toxicity ingredient in water extract of 16 batches of processed sample. The determination condition of UPLC chromatographic and contents of toxicity ingredient were as follows. UPLC chromatographic: ACQUITY BEH C18 column (2.1 mm x 100 mm, 1.7 microm) eluted with the mobile phases of acetonitrile and 0.1% phosphoric acidwater in gradient mode, the flow rate was 0.25 mL x min(-1) and the detection wavelength was set at 327 nm. Contents of toxicity ingredient: Agilent TC-C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm), mobile phase was methanol-0.01 mol x L(-1) sodium dihydrogen phosphate (35: 65), flow rate was 1.0 mL x min(-1), and detection wavelength was 203 nm. The chromatographic fingerprints 16 batches of samples were analyzed in using the similarity evaluation system of chromatographic, fingerprint of traditional Chinese medicine, SPSS16.0 and SIMCA13.0 software, respectively. The similarity degrees of the 16 batches samples were more than 0.97, all the samples were classified into four categories, and the PCA showed that the peak area of chlorogenic acid, 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid and caffeic acid were significantly effect index in fingerprint of processed Xanthii Fructus sample. The outcome of determination showed that the toxicity ingredient contents of all samples reduced significantly after processing. This method can be used in optimizing the processing technology of Xanthii Fructus.

Objective To observe the expression level and diagnosis performance of serum exosomal miR-21 in lung cancer. Method Sera of 94 lung cancer patients,29 pulmonary tuberculosis patients,and 26 healthy controls from Nan Fang Hospital were collected. Exosomes in serum were purified and characterized ,and miRNA was abstracted from exosomes. Levels of exosomal miR-21 in three groups were compared with relative quantitative RT-PCR. Diagnosis performance of exosomal miR-21 was evaluated by ROC curve. Results Purified serum exosome sample possesses typical exosome features. There were significant difference among exosomal miR-21 levels from lung cancer ,tuberculosis ,and health control group. Exosomal miR-21 obviously increased in lung cancer patients,and decreased in tuberculosis patients. Exosomal miR-21 were increased in early and late stage lung cancer patients. The diagnostic performance of exosomal miR-21 was evaluated by ROC curve. Its area under the curve was 0.702 and specificity was 0.923. Conclusions Serum exosomal miR-21 was increased in many kinds of lung can-cer patients. It possesses excellent diagnosis performance ,which may be developed as new biomarkers to assist lung diagnosis.

Pigment epithelium derived factor (PEDF) has been proven to be an effective drug for the treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV). However, the lack of ideal administration route is the biggest bottleneck preventing PEDF from wider clinical use. In this study, we developed a novel PEDF-carrying system which employed immuno-nano-liposomes (INLs) under ultrasound exposure. PEDF-loaded INLs were prepared by conjugating nanoliposomes to the peptide ATWLPPR specifically targeting the receptor-2 for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFR-2) and reversely encapsuling PEDF. RF/6A cells were incubated with PEDF-loaded INLs. CNV models of BN rats were injected with PEDF-loaded INLs. MTT assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of the INLs on RF/6A cells. Flow cytometry was conducted to detect the apoptotic rate of cells. Laser scanning confocal microscopy was employed to observe the binding and transmitting process of PEDF-loaded INLs and to calculate the area of CNV in the rat model. The results showed that the PEDF-loaded INLs could exclusively bind to CNV but not to the normal choroidal vessels. The CNV area was significantly decreased in PEDF treatment groups in comparison with control group (P<0.05). Moreover, PEDF-loaded INLs exposed under ultrasound were more efficient in reducing the CNV area (P<0.05). It was concluded that INLs in combination with ultrasonic exposure can transmit PEDF into cytoplasma with high specificity and efficiency, which strengthens the inhibitory effects of PEDF on CNV and reduces its side effects. PEDF-loaded INLs possibly represent a new treatment paradigm for patients with ocular neovascularization.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the embryotoxicity of alkaloids in Senecionis Scandentis Hebra on in vitro cultured mouse embryos. Mouse whole embryo culture (WEC) was applied in this study. Post-implantation (8.5 d) mouse embryos were isolated from their mothers, and cultured in medium of immediately centrifuged serum (ICS) with different concentrations of seneciphylline (target concentrations were 100, 50, 25 and 12.5 μg x mL(-1)) or senkirkine (target concentrations were 50, 25 and 12.5 μg x mL(-1)) for 48 h. After culturing completed, the development and organic morphodifferentiation of the cultured embryos were evaluated microscopically. Treatment with seneciphylline and senkirkine had adverse effects on the development and organic morphodifferentiation of embryos. The effect also had clear dose-response. Alkaloidals in Senecionis Scandentis Hebra had embryotoxicity on cultured embryos, which indicated that pregnant people exposed to Senecionis Scandentis Hebra may get potential risk on fetus.
