Objective To compare the effects of point contact-dynamic compression plates (PC-DCP) and dynamic compression plates (DCP) on cortical bone blood flow in an intact sheep tibia model. Methods Fifteen mature goats were used in this experiment. After the bilateral tibia of goats were fixed with DCP and PC-DCP respectively, the regional cortical bone blood flow was measured at four time intervals (1 day, 2, 6 and 12 weeks after operation) using radiolabelled microsphere technique. Results After operation, the cortical bone blood flow was acutely decreased at the first day, kept lower than normal level until six weeks and recovered at the 12th week. The blood supply under PC-DCP recovered to normal, even over normal level two weeks after operation and remained at a high level until 12 weeks. Conclusions PC-DCP can markedly protect cortical bone blood flow.

Objective To compare the effects of point contact-dynamic compression plates (PC-DCP) and dynamic compression plates (DCP) on bone structure and mechanical properties of the plated bone in the intact goat tibia model. Methods Ten matured goats were used. The bilateral intact tibia of goats were fixed with DCP and PC-DCP respectively. The goats were sacrificed at 12 and 24 weeks after operation, and the tibiae were harvested. The structure of bone under plate was studied both by CT scan and histomorphology. The mechanical properties of the plated bone were examined by torsional test. Results At 12 weeks after internal fixation, there was obvious osteoporosis in the cortical bone underneath the plate in the DCP group compared with that of the PC-DCP group. Both of the cortical bone thickness underneath the plate and the torsion strength of the plated tibiae were significantly higher in the PC-DCP group than that in DCP group (P0.05). Conclusion The underlying bone resorption after rigid plate fixation is induced by both the disturbance of the bone blood supply and stress shielding. However, the former is the main cause in the early stage of fixation. PC-DCP is able to prevent bone resorption in the early stage of fixation.

Objective To study the mechanism of anti-keratin autoantibodies (AK auto Ab) inhibiting the keratinocytes proliferation. Methods Keratinocytes from normal human skin and squamous cell carcinoma were cultured, then treated with AK auto Ab in different doses. MTT and immunohistochemical technologies were applied to test the proteins related to proliferation and apoptosis. Results AK could inhibit the proliferation of these two kinds of cells with a dose related effect. AK auto Ab could promote the expression of p53,c-myc, and inhibited the expression of PCNA. Conclusions The results indicate that AK auto Ab plays an important role in the proliferation of keratinocytes both from normal skin and from SCC.

Background The present study investigated the prognostic value of medical comorbidities at admission for 30-day in-hospital mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods A total of 5161 patients with AMI were admitted in Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 1,1993 and December 31,2007. Medical comorbidities including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, previous myocardial infarction, valvular heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), renal insufficiency, previous stroke, atrial fibrillation and anemia, were identified at admission. The patients were divided into 4 groups based on the number of medical comorbidities at admission (0, 1, 2, and ≥ 3). Cox regression analysis was used to calculate relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), with adjustment for age, sex, heart failure and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Results The mean age of the studied population was 63.9 ± 13.6 years, and 80.1% of the patients were male. In 74.6% of the patients at least one comorbidity were identified. Hypertension (50.7%), diabetes mellitus (24.0%) and previous myocardial infarction (12%) were the leading common comorbidities at admission. The 30-day in-hospital mortality in patients with 0, 1, 2, and ≥ 3 comorbidities at admission (7.2%) was 4.9%, 7.2%, 11.1%, and 20.3%, respectively. The presence of 2 or more comorbidities was associated with higher 30-day in-hospital mortality compared with patients without comorbidity (RR: 1.41, 95% CI: 1.13-1.77, P = 0.003, and RR: 1.95, 95% CI: 1.59-2.39, P = 0.000, respectively).Conclusions Medical comorbidities were frequently found in patients with AMI. AMI patients with more comorbidities had a higher 30-day in-hospital mortality might be predictive of early poor outcome in patients with AMI.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of intraductal ultrasonography (IDUS) for bile duct stones by comparing between magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography ( MRCP), endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) and IDUS. Methods ERC was performed in 30 patients with suspected extrahepatic cholelithiotic after MRCP. IDUS was applied through guide wire after ERC, and stones were removed if necessary. Results MRCP detected bile duct stones in 22 cases, misdiagnosed bile duct floc as stones in 2 and missed stones in 2 others. The accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of MRCP in diagnosis of bile duct stone were 86. 7% (26/30), 91. 7% (22/24), and 66. 7% (4/6), respectively. ERC detected bile duct stones in 23 cases, misdiagnosed bile duct air bubble as stones in 2 and missed stones in 1. The accuracy , sensitivity and specificity of MRCP in diagnosis of bile duct stone were 90% (27/30), 92% (23/25) and 66.7% (4/6) , respectively. IDUS detected 24 cases of bile duct stones, 4 bile duct floc and 2 air bubble without any misdiagnosis. The accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of IDUS in diagnosis of bile duct stone were 100%. Conclusion IDUS, safe and reliable, is superior to ERC and MRCP in diagnosis of bile duct stone.
