[Objective] To study the effect of anti-infective reconstituted bone xenograft(ARBX)on treating chronic hematogenous osteomyelitis as one-stage grafting.[Method]ARBX was used to treat 24 cases of chronic hematogenous osteomyelitis as one-stage grafting after debridement since September of 2001,17 cases of which were followed up for an average period of 34 months(range,12 to 79 months).[Result]Except 1 case failed to cure,and 1 resulted in recurrence of infection,and 1 with large segmental bone defect nonunion post-operatively,other 14 cases were cured,the cure rate was 82.4% which was better than traditional therapy.[Conclusion]ARBX has high osteoinductive activity and enhanced anti-infective capability,which enables it to be used as primary grafting to treat chronic hematogenous osteomyelitis.

Objective To explore the value of high-frequency color Doppler ultrasound in the early diagnosis of breast cancer. Methods 46 cases of pathologically confirmed by surgery for breast cancer after preoperative high-frequency color Doppler ultrasound diagnosis were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among preoperative ultrasound diagnosis of breast cancer(41 cases) ,5 cases was fibroadenoma and ultrasound diagnosis and pathology diagnosis consistent rate was 89. 1%. Two-dimensional sonographic features of breast cancer were lumps form less rules,no capsule, the border less clear,and some was like or Crab-like glitches,and Aspect ratio was greater than 1,internal had the non-uniform weak echo,some showed the sand-like calcification,rear echo attenuation,Color Doppler flow characteristics :mass flow signals could be seen around and inside, Vmax value range was 6. 6 cm / s ～ 45. 1 cm / s, Vmean(21.50 ± 10.62) cm/s,RI:0.59 ～ 1.0,an average of(0.74 ±0.1). Conclusion High frequency color Doppler ultrasonography in early diagnosis of breast cancer had a high value.

Objective To observe histomorphology of neo-cartilage obtained with tissue-engineering by combining calcium alginate gel and in vitro cultrue of chondrocytes. Methods Articular chondrocytes from the knee joints of 2-week-old New Zealand white rabbits were harvested, expanded in cell culture, and following the second generation of the culture, the chondrocyte suspension was mixed with calcium alginate gel resulting in a cell density of 5? 10 6/ml. Finally the mixture, which contained 1％ sodium alginate, 40 mmol/L calcium gluconate, 0.135 mol/L NaCl, 0.1 mol/L K 2HPO 4 and 5? 10 6 chondrocytes per milliliter, were injected into the dorsal subcutaneous tissue in rabbits of experimental groups (A and B). Animals of the control groups (C and D) were injected with calcium alginate without chondrocytes or chondrocytes without calcium alginate. Specimens were harvested at the 2nd and 4th week after injection, and stained with HE and toluidine blue. Results In the HE stained specimens in the experimental groups, proliferation of chondrocytes was demonstrated at the 2nd week and the formation of neo-cartilage at the 4th week after injection of calcium alginate chondrocyte-composite. Toluidine blue stained specimens showed positive staining of chondrocytes and cartilage matrix of neo-cartilage. In some animals injected with chondrocytes without calcium alginate, relative small amount of neo-cartilage was also formed and no neo-cartilage was observed in animals injected with calcium alginate without chondrocytes. Conclusion Injectable calcium alginate-chondrocyte-composite can induce tissue engineered neo-cartilage in allogenic animal.

The performance appraisal (PA) system establishment in scientific research institutes on traditional Chi-nese medicine (TCM) plays an important role in the management of TCM research work, which can set up both well-defined guidance and favorable appraisal regimen for scientific researchers, so that leads to the accomplishment of the scientific objectives. However, current PA system establishment has fallen seriously behind the real demand in most TCM research institutes. As a result, there is a serious lack of a mature, efficient, standardized, propagable PA system in TCM research field. In this paper, we tried to discuss the current situation and key issues in building modern PA system in TCM research institutes. The PA system development in scientific research institutes on TCM was pointed out. The PA system should be based on existed referenced similar platforms, with full consideration on professional features and Chinese culture. The PA system establishment should be with most science, systematicness, objectivity, and guidance. The PA system should also be established to evaluate the scientific researchers equitably, guide the scientific trend, provide proper institute, and promote scientific research.

Objective To clone NT-3 gene from normal rat brain and to purify its fusion protein and to prepare specific high titer antibody so that to provide a foundation for further study for peripheral nerve injury.MethodsWe amplified target gene by RT-PCR and cloned it into the vector of pMD-18T,then analyzed its sequence and compared it with the sequence from GenBank.We subcloned it into pRSET-A vector and introduced it into Escherichia coli BL21.The expression was induced by IPTG,and identified by SDS-PAGE.The fusion protein was purified by niccolum purify kit.We immuned rabbits with immunological adjuvant for specificity antibody preparation.Results We got a 777 bp gene segment by RT-PCR.The DNA sequence was identical to rat NT-3 gene sequence in GenBank.It proved that the target gene was correctly inserted into the vector.A new protein band of about 34 ku appeared on SDS-PAGE after induction of IPTG.A specific high titer antibody of 1∶64000 was gained by immunizing rabbits with adjuvant.

Objective To analyze the hospitalization expenses of cancer patients covered with byitem payment and quota payment packages,and probe into the impacts on such expenses for the two payment packages.Methods Inpatient records of 600 cancer patients were sampled by random from the medical insurance databases of Zhengzhou and Fuzhou to learn their hospitalization expenses and impact factors.Results Under the by-item payment package,the expenses of urban workers’ medical insurance were found higher than those of urban residents' medical insurance,with a per capita expense of RMB 32747.70 ± 32035.01 and 23035.83 ± 22875.65 respectively.Under the quota payment package however,there were no significant differences between expenses of the two kinds of inpatients,with a per capita expense of RMB 66043.41±47562.09 and 66576.54±73417.29 respectively.Conclusion There are gaps of reimbursement level between the two basic insurance schemes,which may not disappear in a short time.Under the by-item payment package,the gap exists in the difference of perreimbursement amount; under the quota payment package,the gap is negligible between the two populations under different insurance schemes.It is recommended to make reasonable use of these different payment schemes to minimize the relative gaps in medical service accessibility caused by the difference in reimbursement level.

Objective To validate the effect of anti-infective reconstituted bone xenograft (ARBX) in treating posttraumatic osteomyelitis by one-stage grafting in the adults.Methods With clinical application approval of Medical Command,Logistics Ministry of PLA,ARBX was used to treat 27 adult patients (29 lesions) with posttraumatic osteomyelitis by one-stage grafting after debridement since September 2001.The study analyzed 27 patients (29 grafts) who were followed up for average 26 months (12-63 months).Results The follow-up for average 26 months (12-63 months) in 27 patients showed that infection of 22 patients (24 lesions) was controlled and cured,except for three with failure to control the infection or with recurrence of infection,two with controlled infection but with postoperative nonunion.The infection control rate was 89.7% (26/29) and the cure rate was 82.8% (24/29) ,which were better than the results of traditional therapy.Conclusions ARBX has high osteoinductive activity and enhanced anti-infective capability,which enables it to be used as one-stage grafting to treat posttraumatic osteomyelitis in the adults.

Objective To observe pathological features of peripheral vessel injury caused by ex-plosion shock wave so as to provide theoretical basis for emergency treatment, prevention and complication reduction of war extremity injuries. Methods A total of 18 rabbits were randomly divided into three groups (six rabbits in each group) and placed respectively at 1, 2 and 3 m away from the explosion cen-ter. The animal model with blast injury was made by using fluid dynamite that electrically exploded at 60 cm above the ground. The physical parameters of blast wave were recorded using pressure transducers (PCB, UAS). After explosion, the femoral arteries were examined grossly, histologically and immunohis-tochemically. Results The results showed that vascular endothelial cells were denudated, the spaces of contractile fiber cells increased and appeared puff, the vassular elastic fibers ruptured, flexed and de-formed visibly. Some parts of the vessel wall ruptured completely or partly, leading to bleeding. TUNEL staining and fluorescence microscope found large number of apoptotic cells in endothelium layer, smooth muscle layer and membrana adventitia layer of the blood vessels. Conclusion Explosion shock wave can result in severe large blood vessel injury, which should be paid much attention during treatment of ex-plosion shock injury.
