Objective To compare the clinical effects of proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) and dynamic hip screw (DHS) in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients.And provide a reasonable basis for clinical treatment of elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures.Methods The clinical and follow-up records of 58 elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures treated by PFNA and DHS were retrospectively reviewed.For times of operation,blood loss in operation,length of incision,incidents of complication and Harris's hip functional standard score were compared and analyzed.Results PFNA group operation time[(59.61 ± 8.27)min],amount of bleeding[(234.51 ± 38.80)ml] were both better than the DHS group of[(83.54 ± 11.12)min and (446.57 ±54.01) ml] respectively.There were significant differences (t =9.80,18.10,all P ＜ 0.05).The satisfactory rate was 92.8％ in PFNA group,higher than the DHS group's 83.3 ％ (x2 =6.18,P ＜ 0.05).There was significant difference between two groups in the incident of complication,DHS group was higher.Conclusion PFNA internal fixation with a minimally invasive,fixed solid and recovery fast,is the better internal fixation in the treatment of elderly intertrochanteric fracture patients.

Objective To investigate and compare the clinical feature and natural course of polycythemia vera(PV)between Uygur and Han nationalities in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Methods Clinical symptoms,signs,laboratory tests and prognosis of 37(20 Han,13 Uygur,4 other nationalities)patients with PV were analyzed.Results There were 22 males and 15 female.The mean age of all patients was 59.41±11.31(31-85)years old.The mean hemoglobulin level was(191.11±21.41)g/L.Erythremia combined with leukocytosis or thromboeytosis were observed in 23(62.2%)or 19(51.4%)patients respectively.Splenomegaly was found in 27(73.0%)patients and hepatomegaly in 9(24.3%).Serum LDH was elevated in 28(75.7%)patients.Twenty two patients(59.5%)had vascular thrombotic events.Two patients developed MF.N0 secondary neoplasm was identified.Two patients died of thrombosis.Over 60 years old,leukocytosis and thrombocytosis were the high risk factors associated with thrombosis.No significant differences of clinical manifestations and thrombotic events have been found between Uygur and Han patients in Xinjiang.Conclusion Over 60 years old,leukocytosis and thromboeytosis were probably the high risk factors of thrombosis in PV patients.There was no significant differenee in clinical feature and natural course of PV between Uygur and Han nationalities in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

Objective To investigate the cortical activities for processing exogenous stimulus-related information conflict and endogenous mental-related information conflict.Methods Event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded while 15 healthy subjects performed a digit matching task. Each trial consisted of two sequentially presented digits (S1～S2), where S2 was either the same as S1 (S-) or different from S1 (S+) in digital value. Subjects pressed a button of a push-pad when S2 was the same as S1 and pressed the other button when S2 was different from S1 in the first session. Furtherly, they were required to calculate the difference between S1 and S2, and compare their calculation result with digit '3' in the second session. They pressed a button when the calculation result was equal to '3' (M-) and pressed the other button when it was not (M+). Three trial types were included: same numbers but their difference was not equal to '3' (S-M+), different numbers but their difference was '3' (S+M-) and different numbers but their difference was not '3' (S+M+). Results Following S2 onset, a component N270 was broadly elicited at all the scalps by S+, S+M- and S-M+. N270 and N400 were elicited in series by S+M+. The maximal amplitude of N270 was at the posterior scalp while the maximal amplitude of the N400 was at the central areas. Conclusion The different spatio-temporal distributions of the two negative potentials suggested that exogenous and endogenous information conflicts were serially processed in the human brain by the conflict processing system of multiple neural substrates.

Objective To observe the effects of Eldepryl on expressions of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in substantia nigra and striatum in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and to explore the protective mechanism of Eldepryl on dopaminergic neuron . Methods Healthy male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (n=72) were randomly divided into control group, model group and Eldepryl group (n=24 in each group). Each group was divided random?ly into 2 subgroups as 4 day treatment group and 8 day treatment group (n=12 in each subgrop). Pakinson’s disease model was established by injecting rotenone subcutaneously back the neck, rats in the control group were injected with an equal vol?ume of sunflower oil subcutaneously at the same location. Rats in the Eldepryl group were then given Eldepryl 0.5 mg·kg-1 in?tragastrically every day for 4 or 8 consecutive days and rats in model group and control group were given an equal volume of saline instead. The expression of TH and GDNF in substantia nigra and striatum were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Results Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting showed that strong expression of TH positive cells with little expression of GDNF positive cells were seen in substantia nigra and striatum in rats of control group, and there was no significant difference between subgroup of 8 day treatment and 4 day treatment within control group. The expression of TH cells and GDNF were both significantly reduced in model group compared with those in control group (both P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between subgroup of 8 day treatment and 4 day treatment within each group. The ex?pression of TH positive cells were significantly reduced in Eldepryl group compared with those in control group, and were sig?nificantly increased compared with those in model group. The expression of GDNF positive cells were significantly increased in Eldepryl group compared with those in control group and model group (all P<0.05). And there were significantly more ex?pression of TH positive cells and GDNF positive cells at subgroup of 8 day treatment compared with those at subgroup of 4 day treatment within Eldepryl group with (all P<0.05). Conclusion These data suggest that Eldepryl can protect the dam?age of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra and striatum of PD rats. And its therapeutic mechanism may be associated with increased expression of GDNF.
