Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2017;37(8):226-227,230
Objectives To explore the clinical effect of external fixator combined antibiotic-calcium sulfate packing medullary cavity, VSD continuous drain with negative pressure and local skin flap transposition for the treatment of postoperative infected nonunion after initial debridement. Methods 20 cases of traumatic osteomyelitis from August 2012 to August 2014 were selected and taken antibiotic-calcium sulfate to focal zone. The patients were taken first-stage bone grafting for small bone defects and osteotomy for lengthening for big bone defects. For patients with cutaneous injury, local skin flap transposition was taken. For other patients with partial flap necrosis and non healing wounds, VSD continuous drain with negative pressure was taken. Results Operative incisions of 12 cases were primary healing, two cases were healing by second intention, four cases of flap were survived after local skin flap transposition, and two cases of flap were partial necrosis and healed by second intention. 11 cases of immobilization with external fixator, bone healing was satisfactory in seven cases after osteotomy for lengthening and two cases of bone delayed union in osteotomy for lengthening and recovered after bone transplantation. All patients were followed up for average 19(6-32) months with permatoplasty survived; all the infection of wounds was controlled and relapse-free. The fracture healing period was eight(4-12) month without pin site infection, osteoporosis and deformed healing. But there were 1 cases of knee stiffness and two cases stiffness of ankle joint. Conclusion After initial debridement, taken external fixator and taken antibiotic-calcium sulfate to medullary cavity and fracture ends. The patients were taken first-stage bone grafting for small bone defects and osteotomy for lengthening for big bone defects. For the skin defect after local flap grafting, taken VSD continuous drain with negative pressure for partial necrosis of flap occurred and non healing wounds cases. The method obtained prominent curative effect, reduces the treatment cycle and reduce the complications in the treatment of postoperative infected nonunion.

Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 1994;0(07):-
Object An attempt to seek after an intrinsic inhibitor present in the seed of Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bge.. Methods Crude ethereal extract of the seed was prepared and treated on paper chromatography. Inhibitory effects of different fractions with different Rf value were tested on Brassica chinensis L. and wheat germination. Effect of steeping the seed in warm water at 41 ℃ or 45 ℃ for different periods of time was also studied.Results Seed of A. membranaceus does contain strong intrinsic inhibitor. The portion of its ethereal extract with Rf 0.9 showed the most strong inhibition for the germination of Brassica, and the fraction with Rf 1.0 can inhibit the growth of the tender Brassica root, steeping with warm water can remove most of the intrinsic inhibitor, which also inhibits the growth of both aerial and underground parts of wheat sprouts, but without effect on its seed germination. It also showed strong inhibition of seed germination and growth of tender root of A. membranaceus. Conclusion Besides the low water permeability of the seed peel, the intrinsic inhibitor present in A. membranaceus is another essential factor that retard its germination.

10.A biomechanic research into interosseous talocalcaneal ligaments
Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma 2008;10(4):367-369
Objective To observe the biomechanics of the anterior and posterior interosseous talo-calcaneal ligaments (ITCLs) . Methods Load-displacement characteristics of the subtalar joint were studied in 12 cadaver specimens whose ankle joints were mutilated. The ankle articular surfaces of the talus and the post-calcaneus were exposed. Bone blocks were then embedded in polymethylmethacrylate. The an-terior ITCLs were abscised in 6 of them, and the posterior ITCLs in the other 6. A multi-functional biome-chanical machine was used to perform the biomechanical tests on the specimens. Results When the anterior ITCLs were cut, the tali moved to the anterior-lateral side. When the posterior ITCLs were cut, the tali mostly moved to the anterior-interior side. Conclusions The anterior and posterior ITCLs have dif-ferent roles in maintaining stability of the subtalar joint. Since the posterior ITCLs seem more important than the anterior ones, they should have priority in ITCL reconstruction.
