Objective To investigate the curative effect and the feasibility of treating femoral neck fractures with cannulated screw fixation.Methods Twenty-three patients with femoral neck fractures were treated with cannulated screw fixation,their average age was 51 years old(range,12～86 years),including 7 male patients and 16 females totally.Garden Ⅱ 2 cases,Garden Ⅱ 6 cases,Garden Ⅲ 12 cases,Garden Ⅳ 3 cases.A patient who suffered from fractures displacement needed traction for 3～7 days before surgical operation and the opening reduction was necessary if reduction was not satisfactory.Results During the follow-up 11～33 months the rate of nonunion was 9%(2 cases) and the rate of avascular necrosis was 13%(3 cases).Conclusion Trectin femoral neck fracture with cannulated screw fixating is very simple and the trauma is small.This may improve the cure rate of the femoral neck fractures and it is easy to be spreaded across the basic-level hospital.

Objective To evaluate the technique of Kirschner with a hole and tensile developed from the Kirschner tensile band wire.Methods Forty-two cases with fracture of patella and 23 cases with fracture of ulna olecranon were successfully operated with this apparatus.Average age was 42 years old(range,24～78 years),including 38 male patients and 27 females totally.Results Fracture healing rate was 100%,the rate of excellent and good result was 95% after 9 months to 3 years follow-up.No tenderness,skin penetrating caused by the bolt ends,and loosen fixations were found.Conclusion This apparatus can be considered as a rigid,safe and effective method and can meet the biomechanics principle of the Kirschner tensile band wire,complication of the Kirschner tensile band wire could be avoided by using this technique.

Pancreatic cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the world due to its high malignancy, difficult in early diagnosis, poor treatment efficacy, and high mortality. In recent years, benefiting from the progress of combined chemotherapy and neoadjuvant therapy, the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer has been improved to a certain extent. However, compared with other tumors, progress of precision medicine in pancreatic cancer is slow. The authors introduce the latest progress and difficulties in precision medicine of pancreatic cancer including molecular classification based on single gene and omics, monitoring tumor progression and guide treatment by minimally invasive liquid biopsy, as well as targeting therapy and immuno-therapy, in order to accelerate the development of precision medicine of pancreatic cancer.

AIM: To study the infiltration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils ( PMNs ) after conjunctival flap covering in alkali-burned cornea.
●METHODS: Rabbit cornea alkali-burned model was made, then 50 rabbits were randomly divided into the experimental group ( n=25 ) and the control group ( n=25 ) . At the same time the surgery of conjunctival flap covering was given to rabbits of the experimental group. The condition developing of alkali-burned cornea was observed by slit lamp biomicroscopy, and took photos in two groups. The infiltration of PMNs was identified by hematoxylin eosin ( HE) staining in different periods.
●RESULTS:The quantity of PMNs increased on the 3d, reached the lower level on 7d, shown a peak on the 14d, then decreased gradually. PMNs level of the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group, and the difference of 3, 14 and 21d was significant (P<0. 05).
●CONCLUSION: During the wound healing process, alkali - burned cornea has close relation with the infiltration of PMNs. The treatment of conjunctival flap covering for the severe alkali-burned cornea was found to have good effect.

This study analyzed the current clinical terminology standardization, systematization research status of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM). The previous version of the TCM clinical term system had some problems including imperfect classification structure, unclear relationship between concepts and so on, which made the TCM clinical terminology system(TCMCTS) difficult to support the clinical practice of TCM. The suggestions for system improvement were using ontology method to build TCMCTS concept model bases on the previous researches and data extracted from TCM clinical electronic medical record, and top-level-ontology accordance with ISO standards. The study also tried to summarize the ‘semantic network between classes’ through semantic relationships.

Objective To investigate the thermal effects on tissue structures during microwave endometrial ablation(MEA)and seek a feasible method of endometrial thinning and a fitting mode of applicator radiating microwaves.Methods Operations were performed between the group of thorough uterine curettage and the group of early follicular phase in in vitro or in vivo uterus.The former was treated with MEA after thorough uterine curettage;while the latter was treated with MEA in the early follicular phase directly.The applicator radiating microwaves were moved in "Z" or "Z+W" shape inside uterine cavity.At the same time the serosal temperature was measured in the uterine fundus,tael cornua uteri,the posterior wall and the lower part of anterior wall.After operations the uterine specimens were stained by hematoxylin- eosin,and respiratory enzyme dehydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase(NADH-d) methods.The morphologic changes and the depth of tissue thermal damage were evaluated using an optical microscope and electron microscope.Results(1)Under the optical microscope the endometrial glands became distorted,the cell boundaries disappeared,the nucleoli turned condensed and were stained darker. A large number of acute inflammatory cells appeared in fibrous tissue.In the shallow muscle layer cells were arrayed thickly,nucleoli were solidified and condensed,and cellular plasm were concentrated.The endometrial and the superficial muscle layers were damaged and colorless with NADH-d staining.The scope of the tissue thermal damage was clearly seen.Under an electron microscope,some smooth muscle ceils, chromatin,karyotheca and cellular membranes were destroyed.The mitochondria were swollen,membranes were ruptured,and the crista disappeared.Many organelles were destroyed.The chromatin was lightly wrecked in the transitional area between putrescence and the normal smooth muscle tissue.Karyotheca and cellular plasm still existed,the mitochondria were highly edematous and the crista were disappeared,and the granular endoplasmic reticula were slightly expanded and degranulated.(2)The serosal temperature in in vitro uterus was significantly higher than that in in vivo uterus(P0.05).The injury depth of the "Z+ W" radiation group increased significantly than that of the " Z" radiation group(P

Objective To investigate the clinical effects and postoperative complications of arthrotomy and arthroscopy in repair of 170 menisci in 168 cases.Methods One hundred and sixty-eight patients with meniscus injury were repaired by arthrotomy or arthroscopy.They were 121 males and 47 females.There were 77 left knees and 91 right knees;117 medial menisci and 53 lateral ones.Their average age was 25.5?8.4 years old.Arthro- scopic repair methods included puncture and grinding,bio-absorbable meniscus arrow fixation,Outside-In suturing, Inside-Out suturing,Elite scuff instrument repairing,T-Fix fixation and FasT-Fix fixation techniques.The clinical results were assessed on the basis of symptoms,physical signs,Tegner scores and Lysholm scores of the cases. Postoperative complications were also investigated.Re-arthroscopic exploration was done for patients with obvious symptoms and physical signs.Results The average folluw-up time was 49.3?28.8 months.Their mean pre- operative Tegner score was 3.3?2.3,and their postoperative one 6.8?2.1 (P＜0.05).Their preoperative Lysholm score was 30.1?18.2,and their postoperative one 87.5?22.5 (P＜0.01).There were significant differences in Tegner and Lysholm scores before operation and after operation.Ninety-eight repaired menisci were rated as excellent(57.7%),57 as good (33.5%),10 as fair (5.9%),and five as poor (2.9%).The total ex- cellent and good result was 91.2%.Of the 19 patients with obvious symptoms and physical signs,re-arthroscopic exploration found no healing in five and partial healing in six.Postoperative complications included pain at the Outside-In suture nodes in three cases,referred pain at posterior articular capsule resulted from failed Outside-In meniscus anterior horn suturing in one case,and twinge at the meniscus arrow site in the posterior capsule in five cases.No serious lesion occurred at blood vessels or nerves.The postoperative complication incidence was 5.3%. Conclusion The eight methods of arthrotomy and arthroscopy to repair injured menisci investigated in our study can have a high successful rate and low perioperative and postoperative risk.
