Objective To study the therapeutic effects and mechanism of Sodium Fendate(SF) on rats with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) induced by L-arginine. Method A total of 60 adult SD rats were randomly and e-qually divided into control group, SAP group and SF group, with 20 rats in each group. The rat model of SAP wes established by injecting 2.5 g/kg L-arginine at a dose of intraperitoneally twice at an interval of 1 hour, and rats in SAP group and SF groups were administrated intraperitoneally with 20% L-arginine solution(2.5 g/kg×2) twice at an interval of 1 hour; rats in control group were injected intraperitoneally with the same volume of physiological saline twice alone.At 5 minutes after L-arginine administration,rats in SF group were injected with SF solution (100 mg/kg, qd×3 d) via the tail vein, and rats in the other two groups received a sham injection of the same volume of physiological saline alone. The characteristics of ascites, the pathological changes of pancreatic tissue and the serum levels of amylase(AMY), endothelin-l(ET-1), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6) and the contents of malonaldehyde (MDA), suede dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathioue (GSH) of pan-creatic tissue of rats and prognosis were compared at 72 hours after L-arginine administration. Measurement data were evaluated by oue-way ANOVA, and numeration data were assessed by Fisher' s exact test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Compared with control group,at 72 hours after L-arginine administra-tion,rats in SAP group presented characteristically histopathological changes of SAP with significantly higher serum levels of AMY, ET-1, TNF-α, IL-6 and MDA of pancreatic tissue[(9715.5±301.3) IU/L vs. (729.2±134.2) IU/L;(25.32±3.67) ng/L vs. (14.32±2.69) ng/L;(102.95±11.24) ng/L vs. (38.62±3.87) ng/L; (538.63±9.53) ng/L vs. (186.35±1.19) ng/L;(34.8±3.9) mol/kg vs. (8.1±2.1) mol/kg, all P< 0.01], and lower GSH and SOD in the pancreatic tissue[(7.1±0.6) mg/kg vs. (16.9±1.9) mg/kg; (6423± 1978) kU/kg vs. (29905+2945) kU/kg,both P<0.01].Compared with SAPmodel group,at 72 hours after ad-ministration of L-arginiue, the pathological lesions of SAP in rats of SF group were significantly alleviated with lower pathological scores (P<0.05), lower serum levels of AMY, ET-1 ,TNF-α,IL-6 and MDA in the pancreatic tissue [(8104.6±149.9) IU/L vs. (9715.5±301.3) IU/L; (20.26±5.86) ng/L vs. (25.32±3.67) ng/L; (84.19±15.14) ng/L vs. (102.95±11.24) ng/L;(458±5.37) mol/kg vs. (538.63±9.53) rig/L;(28.3±2.5) moL/kg vs. (34.8±3.9) mol/kg,all P<0.05], and higher SOD and GSH in the pancreatic tissue[(8.5 ±1.4) mg/kg vs. (7.1±0.6) mg/kg;(10 316±2810) kU/kg vs. (6423±1978) kU/kg, both P<0.05].At 72 hours the death rate in SF group was lower than that in SAP group,but the difference had no significance (P= 0.2.5). Conclusions SF can scavenge oxygen-derived free radicals, upgrade the contents of SOD and GSH of pancreatic tissue,decrease the levels of serum proinflammatory cytokines and ET-1, ameliorate the pathological le-sions of pancreatic tissue in rats,and has the capability of decreasing death rate, so it possesses a distinct advantage for the treatment of SAP.

BACKGROUND:Treatment of complex tibial plateau fracture is a difficulty in orthopaedic trauma. Comprehensive assessment and appropriate surgical plan before surgery are the key points of surgery.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional reconstruction and virtual surgical techniques in assessing and surgical planning of complex tibial plateau fracture before surgery.
METHODS:The CT scan data of 30 patients with tibial plateau fracture were imported into the Mimics 13.0 software to establish the three-dimensional digital models of complex tibial plateau fracture, and three-dimensional measurements and reclassification was performed according to three-column classification were made. Virtual surgeries such as bone window operation, reduction of the fracture and bone grafting were made in these models.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Reconstructed three-dimensional digital models of complex tibial plateau fracture could indicate the characteristics of fracture accurately, could be observed at any direction, and could help doctors to reclassify the fracture according to three-column classification. Virtual surgeries of bone window operation, reduction of the fracture and bone grafting made in computer by Mimics 13.0 were confirmed to be vividly simulate the clinical surgery, and helpful in estimating the amount of bone grafting. Three-dimensional reconstruction and virtual surgical techniques play an important role in assessing and surgical planning of complex tibial plateau fracture before surgery, which should be a conventional step in the management of complex tibial plateau fracture.
