Objective To analyze the results of distal tibial pilon fractures treated with delayed open reduction and internal fixation. Methods From September 1997 to May 2001, 26 pilon fractures were stabilized temporarily by application of plaster splint, bandage, calcaneal traction (closed fracture) or unilateral external fixations (open fracture) immediately after injury. There were 19 males and 7 females with an average age of 37.6 years ( 15 to 58 years). Of 26 cases, 6 were open fractures and 20 close fractures, 18 of which were associated with fibular fracture. According to Ruedi-Allgower classification, the fractures were classified as typeⅠin 2, typeⅡin 15, and typeⅢ in 9. The conditions of soft tissue were divided into mild close injury without tension vesicle in 8, and severe injury with tension vesicle or open wound in 18. The definitive internal fixations were performed on an average of 10.2 days (range, 7 to 15 days) after injury as soon as the soft tissue recovered. The final outcomes of treatment were evaluated based on clinical rating and radiographic results. Results All patients were available for follow-up at an average of 3.8 years (range, 2 to 5.5 years) after surgery. All fractures healed at an average of 12.7 weeks (range, 8 to 29 weeks) postoperatively. There were 9 excellent(34.6%), 12 good (46.2%), 3 fair (11.5%), and 2 poor (7.7%) results according the ankle score of Teeny and Wiss. The results were significantly affected by the type of fracture and the severity of soft tissue injury, the excellent and good rate was 88.2% in typeⅠandⅡ, and 66.7% in typeⅢ; the total excellent and good rate was 100% in the patients with mild soft tissue injury, and 72.2% in the patients with severe soft tissue injury. The complications including 2 wound superficial infection and 1 skin necrosis, occurred in 3 patients(11.5%), which were successfully treated by local dressing changes. The incidence of osteoarthritis were found in 16 patients (61.5%) showed by X-ray films, but the radiographic manifestations did not correspond well with the clinical score. Conclusion This two-stage treatment protocol for pilon fracture has some advantages of fewer complications and good function.

AIM:Studies on totipotential stem cells using primordial germ cells (PGCs) have the same application prospect as embryonic stem cells, especially for the animals difficult to isolate embryonic stem cells from blastula. In vitro culture condition of embryo germ cells is the key to control this. This study designs a method to effectively amplify PGCs of mice in vitro and establishes an effective culture method of PGCs. METHODS: Experiments were carried out in the Department of Histology and Embryology of Chongqing Medical University and Key Laboratory of Biochemistry and Molecular Pharmacology from October 2006 to August 2007. ①Clean Kunming pregnant mice (embryos 0.5 dpc) were provided by Animal Experimental Center of Chongqing Medical University. Experimental procedures met the animal ethical standards. ②Allantois and surrounding tissues of 8.5 day post coitum (dpc) embryos, the hindhut and surrounding tissues of 9.5 dpc and 10.5 dpc embryos, the gonadal ridges and surrounding tissues of 11.5 dpc and 12.5 dpc embryos were collected and digested with 0.25%pancreatin-0.02%EDTA, then the cells were cultured in the plastic petridishes which are pretreated with 0.1% gelatine. The formation ratio of primary and the first passaged Embryonic germ (EG) clones were compared among those different time points. The SSEA-1 positive ratio of isolated cells was compared between the two days by immunohistochemical method. The assays of clone numbers counting and MTT were used to compare the different proliferation ability of PGCs from the 11.5 dpc and 12.5 dpc embryos. The effects of expanding PGCs from 11.5 dpc and 12.5 dpc embryos by those two ways above were compared. The EG clones were analyzed by the expression of alkaline phosphatase and the immunologic marker SSEA-1,the undifferentiated marker Nanog and the differentiation ability in vitro were also tested. RESULTS:①The formation ratio of primary and the first passaged EG clone from 11.5 and 12.5 dpc embryos was higher than that from 8.5 to 10.5 dpc embryos and efficiency of expansion was increased (P 0.05). On the third day, the number of the primary EG clones from 11.5 dpc embryos was higher than that from 12.5 dpc embryos (P 0.05), but the two groups had different characteristics. ④The EG clones have representative morphology with high level of alkaline phosphatase activity and SSEA-1, Nanog expression, which can differentiate into the cystic embryoid body. CONCLUSION: 11.5 dpc and 12.5 dpc mouse embryos, especially 11.5 dpc embryos are the optional time points to expand PGCs efficiently. Co-culturing with the tissue and isolating the gonadal ridges both of these two ways are practicable.

Objective Study the effect of induced differentiation of abscisic acid (ABA) on human HCC cell line SMMC-7221.Methods Cultured SMMC-7221 cells were treated separately with RPMI-1640 culture medium, HMBA and ABA with different concentrations. Firstly, the appropriate concentration of ABA which inhibits SMMC-7221 cell proliferation was selected with the modified MTT method. Then electron microscopy was performed to observe the changes of microstructure. The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results Apart from 4?10 -4mmol/L concentration of ABA, the others could inhibit the cell proliferation. The inhibition rate increased with the time prolonging and the concentration increasing. The effect was most obvious with 4?10 -3mmol/L ABA. At this concentration the cells were arrested in G0/ G1 phase (P

Objective To explore the correlation between the enhancement pattern of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and its tumor differentiation on histopathology. Methods HCC lesions (n=259) from 224 patients were retrospectively evaluated with CEUS and histopathological examination. CEUS was performed with SonoVue. The characteristics of blood perfusion and parameters of the time-intensity curve (TIC) were analyzed by ACQ soft?ware. Histopathological diagnoses were decided base on Edmonson grading system. Results Pathologic grading of HCC was not related to the arrival time(P>0.05);The washing-out time point and the enhancement time point and peak time point all appeared earlier in poorly differentiated HCC group, than those in moderately differentiated HCC group than those in well differentiated HCC group(P<0.01);The enhancement time point and the expurgation time point are shorter in poorly differ?entiated HCC group than those in moderately differentiated HCC group than those in well differentiated HCC group. All dif?ferences were with statistical significance. The mode of arterial perfusion in early stage was divided into 3 types:spider web type, radiative type and mixed type. The well differentiated HCC group mainly presented as radiative type ( 28/49, 47.14%). But the most of poorly differentiated HCC group mainly present as spider web type(88/127, 69.29%). The mix type was more common in moderately differentiated HCC group(49/83, 59.03%). Conclusion CEUS show different features of TIC pa?rameters and blood perfusion in different pathological stages of HCC lesions so it can serve as a method to assess the biologi?cal behavior of hepatocellular carcinoma.
