Objective To discuss the surgical treatment of spinal injury, and provide insights on key points and related issues for operations. Methods Two hundred and five cases of spinal fracture were treated through posterior surgical treatment. Under C-arm X-ray monitoring, surgeries had been operated on pedicle screws insertion, vertebral canal decompression, over-extending reduction position, and placed the connecting rod, knocked in the bone graft and finally transplanted the paraspinal bone. Results After operations , the height and morphology of vertebral bodies and spinal physiological curvature were basically recovered analyzed by X ray examination. The follow-up results (in the average of 14 to 36 months) indicated that there were 4 cases of delayed infection, 7 cases of loosen screw, 6 cases of broken screw (14 screws)and 1 case of broken stick, with no secondary nerve injury or other syndromes. Conclusion The vertebral pedicle screw internal fixation manipulated easily, which could sufficiently enlarge vertebral canal in order to decompression. In addition, during the operation, together with over-extending reduction position is beneficial to regain the height of fractured vertebral bodies.

Objective To explore the causes of deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremities after femoral neck fracture.Methods To retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 483 cases of femoral neck fractures treated from September 2014 to December 2017 from Department of Traumatic Orthopedics,Xi'an Jiaotong University School of Medicine Affiliated Honghui Hospital.Please record the patient's complications,blood transfusion volume,reduction method,internal fixation,operative time,intraoperative blood loss,and postoperative thrombosis.Count data were expressed as percentage (％) and analyzed by x2 test between the two groups;measurement data were expressed as ((x) ± s),and two independent samples was used by t test.To calculate the incidence of postoperative deep venous thrombosis in patients with femoral neck fractures and to investigate the causes of deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities after femoral neck fractures.Results Of the 483 patients,149 cases of deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities occurred after surgery,with an incidence of 30.8％.The reduction method,internal fixation,and intraoperative blood loss all affected the occurrence of deep venous thrombosis after femoral neck fracture (P ＜ 0.05).Among the reset methods,367 cases were open and closed,33.2％ (122/367) had deep venous thrombosis,closed reduction was 116 cases,and 23.3％ (27/116) had deep venous thrombosis.The incidence of open reduction deep venous thrombosiswas higher than closed reduction;among the internal fixation methods,fixation,the incidence of deep venous thrombosis after total hip arthroplasty and intramedullary nailing was the highest,which was 52.8％ and 50.0％,respectively.The hemorrhage volume in the thrombosis group (246.9 ± 178.1) ml was higher than that in the non-thrombosis group(206.3 ± 126.7) ml.Conclusions The incidence of deep venous thrombosis after femoral neck fractures is high,and the way of reduction,internal fixation,bedtime before operation,and blood loss during operation can affect the occurrence of deep venous thrombosis after femoral neck fracture.There are many factors affecting deep venous thrombosis after femoral neck fracture.It is necessary to fully evaluate the risk of deep venous thrombosis after operation.

Objective: Based on nationwide cardiovascular surgery registry database, to analyze the current status and future development of minimally invasive cardiovascular surgery (MICS) in China.
Methods: There were 45 institutions from 19 provinces nationwide involved in Chinese cardiovascular surgery technique registry study. A total of 16480 adult patients with cardiovascular surgery from 2010-09 to 2012-03 were divided into 2 groups, Conventional surgery group, n=14503 and MICS group, n=1977. The basic clinical conditions were analyzed and compared between 2 groups in order to explore the current status and future development of MICS in China.
Results: Compared with Conventional surgery group, the patients in MICS group had the younger age, better and stable pre-operative condition. In MICS group, compared with 4 other common procedures, the patients who received hybrid procedure had obviously shorter cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time, aortic occlusion time, ventilator using time, ICU and in-hospital stay time, meanwhile decreased post-operative drainage volume;except for Robotic surgery, it required less red blood cells and plasma at during and post-operative time, all P<0.01. There were 12 (0.6%) in-hospital death in MICS group, the total complication rate was at 4%.
Conclusion: MICS are widely used in China, its short-term safety and efifcacy are conifrmed. Upon cardiovascular disease spectrum changing, the MICS procedures will be adjusted accordingly.

Objective To prepare an attenuated Listeria vaccine Lmdd-LMP2A expressing the Ep-stein-Barr virus latent membrane protein 2A ( EBV-LMP2A) and evaluate its specific anti-tumor effects on nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods The gene fragment encoding EBV-LMP2A was amplified by PCR analysis and then subcloned into the shuttle vector p1565.PCR restriction enzyme digestion and DNA se-quencing were performed to identify the recombinant shuttle vector p1565-LMP2A.The p1565-LMP2A vector was then transformed into competent strains of the attenuated Listeria monocytogenes ( Lmdd) .The recombi-nant attenuated Listeria vaccine strain Lmdd-LMP2A was verified by Western blot assay.The histological sections of spleen and liver tissues were stained by Haematoxylin and eosin ( H&E) for analysis of inflamma-tion.A tumor-bearing HLA-A2 transgenic mouse model was established by subcutaneous injection of CNE-1/HLA-A2/LMP2A nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line.The prepared Lmdd-LMP2A vaccine was inoculated into the mice via tail intravenous injection for the evaluation of specific CTL induction and the in vivo anti-tumor effects.Results The shuttle vector p1565-LMP2A and the recombinant attenuated Listeria vaccine strain Lmdd-LMP2A with stable expression of LMP2A protein were successfully constructed.The immunized mice showed mild inflammations with no structural damage and necrosis as indicated by H&E staining.The growth of tumors in tumor-bearing HLA-A2 transgenic mice was significantly inhibited by the immunization of Lmdd-LMP2A vaccine as compared with mice without inoculation.The survival time of mice was prolonged with the immunization of Lmdd-LMP2A vaccine.Conclusion The prepared attenuated Listeria vaccine Lm-dd-LMP2A showed specific anti-tumor effects with the safety advantage, suggesting the possibility of using it for anti-tumor therapy in clinic.

Objective To investigate the pathogen-related genes of atmospheric polluting disease so as to clarify the biology mechanism and provide the scientific basis.Methods By using the technique of dot blot hybridization,we analyzed genes’differential expression with cloning by exposure to ≥75 μg/m3 PM2.5 in heating season and < 75 μg/m3 PM2.5 in un-heating season in WI-38 human embryo lung cells.The levels of cytokines TNF-α,IL-2, IL-6 and IL-8 were determined by radio immunity assay. Results After 24h of treatment, compared with control group,more than 100μg/mL PM2.5 significantly increased TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-8 levels,and decreased IL-2 in WI-38 human embryo lung cells (P < 0.05 ).The clear stripe was found in 350 bp in 48 gene samples with segment with differential expression of genes exposed to different concentrations of PM2.5 in WI-38 human embryo lung cells.Through the dot blot hybridization,black brown spots were found in 41 samples in Tester cDNA hybridization,and no similar spots were found in all of the same samples in Driver cDNA hybridization. Conclusion PM2.5 exposure may induce the inflammatory damage of WI-38 human embryo lung cells.Obvious genetic damage was observed in those cells exposed to ≥75 μg/m3 PM2.5 in heating season.
