Objective To determine the surgical procedures and effects of ultra-distal tibial intramedullary nails combined with blocking screws in treatment of distal tibial fractures.Methods From April 2008 to September 2012,21 cases of distal tibial fractures were treated with ultra-distal tibial intramedullary nails combined blocking screws.All fractures were statically locked and closed using undreamed technique.For relatively simple fracture,blocking screws were considered when the reduction and stability was not satisfied after the insertion of intramedullary nails; for severe comminuted fractures,blocking screws were inserted directly under C-arm fluoroscopy.Partial weight-bearing was permitted 3 weeks after surgery.Quality of reduction,fracture union,and function assessment were measured at follow-up.Results No skin necrosis and soft tissue and bone infections occurred after a mean follow-up of 17.5 months (range,12-22 months).All fractures were healed with an average healing time of 12 months (range,8-26 months).X-ray findings revealed the fracture of ＜ 5° angulation on coronal and sagittal planes.There was no deformation or breakage of blocking screws and intramedullary nails.According to the criteria of Tormetta,the results were excellent in 19 cases and good in 2.Conclusion Blocking screws assists reduction and improve the fixation stability by narrowing the canal in treatment of distal tibial fractures and expands the application of intramedullary nails.

Objective To study the effects of exogenous phosphocreatine (CP) on brain injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in rats.Methods A total of 160 male adult SD rats were randomly ( random number) divided into 4 groups:sham-operation control group ( group A),CPR group ( group B),low-dose CP group ( group C),high-dose CP group ( group D),and each group was further divided into 5 subgroups (n =8) as per study at different intervals,0.5,3,6,12 and 24 h after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in groups B,C and D or after tracheotomy in group A.Cardiac arrest (CA) was induced by using asphyxia to establish CPR model in group B,C and D.The CP0.5 g/kg used in group C or CP 1.0 g/kg used in group D was injected into femoral vein at beginning of ROSC.Rats in each subgroup were sacrificed and the tissues of frontal lobe of brain of rats were taken at different intervals.The levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP),adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP) in cerebral cortex were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC),and values of total adenine nucleotides ( TAN ) and energy charge ( EC ) were detected.The activities of Na+ -K+ -ATPase and Ca2+ -Mg2+ -ATPase in cerebral cortex were assayed by spectrophotometric method. The pathological changes of cerebral cortex were observed under optical microscope.The experimental data were processed with analysis of variance by using SPSS 16.0 package. Results Compared with group A,the levels of ATP,TAN,EC,Na + -K + -ATPase,Ca2+ -Mg2+ -ATPase were lower ( P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01 ) at each interval in groups B and C,and at intervals of 0.5,3,6,12 h in group D,and the levels of AMP were higher (P ＜ 0.01 ) at each interval in group B and at intervals of 0.5 h and 3 h in groups C and D.Compared with group B,the levels of ATP,TAN,EC,Na + -K + -ATPase,Ca2 + -Mg2+ -ATPase were higher ( P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01 ),and the levels of AMP were lower ( P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01 ) at intervals of 6,12 and 24 h in groups C and D.Compared with group C,the levels of ATP at interval of 24 h and TAN,Na +- K + -ATPase,Ca2 + -Mg2 + -ATPase at intervals of 6,12 and 24 h were higher in group D ( P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01 ).There were severe pathological changes in cerebral cortex in group B,and mild changes in groups C and D. Conclusions There was obvious energy metabolism disorder after CPR in rats.Treatment with exogenous CP could increase the levels of ATP and activities of ATPase,alleviate pathological changes,especially in high-dose,and mitigate injury in cerebral cortex after CPR in rats.

Objective To study the effect of Hemin on the level of neuroglobin (NGB) in cerebral cortex,neurodeficit score (NDS) and pathological changes in cerebral cortex after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in rats. Method A total of 120 male Sprague Dawley(SD) rats were divided randomly into control group(A), CPR group(B) and Hemin group(C). The animal model of cardiac arrest (CA) induced by asphyxia was established and CPR was performed. The NGB level in cerebral cortex, NDS and pathological changes in cerebral cortex were examined 0.5 h,3 h,6 h, 12 h, 24 h after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in each group. Experimental data were analyzed by using one-factor analysis of variance and Tukey test. Results In comparison with group A, the levels of NGB were significantly higher 12 h,and 24 h after ROSC (P ＜0.05 and P ＜0.01), the values of NDS were significantly lower at each interval after ROSC ( P ＜ 0.01 ) ,and the pathological changes were more severe at each interval after ROSC in group B. In comparison with group A, the levels of NGB were significantly higher 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after ROSC ( P ＜ 0.05 and P ＜ 0.01 ), and the values of NDS were significantly lower 3 h, 6 h, 12 h after ROSC ( P ＜ 0.01) in group C. In comparison with group B, the levels of NGB were significantly higher 12 h and 24 h after ROSC, the values of NDS were significantly higher 12 h and 24 h after ROSC, and the pathological changes were less in group C. Conclusions The NGB level increased in cerebral cortex, the NDS level decreased and severe pathological changes occurred in rats after CPR. The hemin treatment up-regulated the level of NGB, improved the NDS, mitigated pathological changes, alleviating the cerebral injury after CPR.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the toxic effects of mixture of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on Mice Testis related enzymes and hormones.

METHODSAfter determining the median lethal dose (LD₅₀) of VOCs using the acute toxicity test, 40 male clean inbred Kunming mice were assigned to 1/8 LD₅₀ VOCs exposure group, 1/4 LD₅₀ VOCs exposure group, and 1/2 LD₅₀ VOCs exposure group, as well as positive control group with cyclophosphamide (60 mg/kg) and negative control group with tea oil, with 8 mice in each group. The mice were intraperitoneally injected with respective agents for 5 days. The levels of testis testosterone, estradiol, follicle stimulating hormone, and luteinizing hormone were determined by ELISA. Meanwhile, the activity of testicular marked enzymes such as lactate dehydrogenase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, acid phosphatase, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were examined.

RESULTSCompared with the negative control group, the 1/8 LD₅₀ exposure group had a significantly increased testis coefficient (P<0.05). Both the activity of testicular marked enzymes and the levels of testicular sex hormones in all exposure groups showed significant downward trends with increasing VOC doses compared with those in the negative control group (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONVOCs have obvious toxicity to mouse testis by changing the levels of testicular sex hormones and the activity of testicular marked enzymes.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of malaria epidemic situation before and after malaria elimination in Qiandongnan Prefecture, and to provide the basis for establishment of effective strategies and measures to consolidate the achievements of malaria prevention and control.Methods:The data of malaria cases in 16 counties (cities) of Qiandongnan Prefecture from 2005 to 2018 were collected, and descriptive epidemiological method was used to analyze the infection rate of Plasmodium among local residents and floating population before (2005-2011) and after (2012-2018) elimination of malaria, and the characteristics of population distribution, seasonal distribution, species of Plasmodium and types of malaria vectors were analyzed. Results:Before elimination of malaria, total of 1 412 cases of malaria were reported, among those cases, 1 361 cases were local cases, accounting for 96.39% of the total cases. After elimination of malaria, total of 17 cases were reported, all of them were imported cases. After comparison of malaria cases before and after the elimination, the proportion of people aged from 18 to 60 was 70.54% (996/1 412) before the elimination, all 17 imported cases were 18-60 years old after the elimination, and the proportion of children/students decreased from 24.65% (348/1 412) before the elimination to 0 after the elimination. The peak incidence of malaria cases before the elimination was from June to October, and cases occurred every month. After the elimination, the imported cases were sporadic. Plasmodium vivax was the main species of Plasmodium before the elimination (98.58%, 1 392/1 412), and Plasmodium falciparum was mainly imported after the elimination (70.59%, 12/17). Before and after the elimination, Anopheles sinensis, the malaria vector, was the dominant population, but no distribution of Anopheles minimus and Anopheles anthropophagus was found after 2015. Conclusions:After the elimination of malaria in Qiandongnan Prefecture, there is a risk of local malaria cases caused by imported cases. It is suggested that local authorities should focus on the treatment of suspected malaria cases and vector surveillance of overseas returnees in the future.
