Objective:To compare two flexible embryo catheters and determine whether clinical out-come differs in the in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET)cycles.Methods:This prospective control study was conducted by one doctor between July 2012 and November 2013.In the study,2 064 patients undergoing fresh embryo transfer by using IVF-ET/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)-ET in Reproductive Medical Center of Peking University Third Hospital were recruited.The subjects were di-vided into two groups.Cook Sydney IVF embryo transfer catheters (product model:K-JETS-7019-SIVF) were used for embryo transfer in group 1 (n =949),and FrydmanCCD catheters (product model:131230301)were used in group 2 (n =1 115).Pregnancy outcomes were compared between these two groups.Results:There was no significant difference in age,diagnosis for infertility and stimulation proto-col used between the two groups.In addition,there was no difference in the number of oocytes collected and in the number and score of embryos transferred.The significantly higher implantation rate,clinical pregnancy rate,and live birth rate (34.40% vs.26.92%,51.21% vs.41.52%,42.57% vs. 33.09%,P <0.05)were observed in group 1 compared with group 2.The abortion rate was not signifi-cantly different between the two groups (11.93% vs.15.98%,P >0.05).The proportion of difficult transfer was higher in group 1 than that in group 2 (5.27% vs.3.41%,P <0.05 ).There was no difference in the clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate between the two difficult transfer cycles.Con-clusion:The type of embryo transfer catheter affects the clinical outcome in IVF.Good clinical outcome can be obtained by using Cook Sydney IVF catheter,which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To evaluate our self-designed easily-breaking compression bone bolt plus bone plate in the treatment of tibial plateau fracture.Methods:From July 2018 to December 2018, 12 patients with tibial plateau fracture were treated at Emergency Center of Trauma, The Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University using our self-designed easily-breaking compression bone bolt plus bone plate. They were 8 males and 4 females, aged from 20 to 65 years (average, 45.6 years), with 6 left sides and 6 right sides injured. According to Schatzker classification, there were one case of type I, 3 cases of type Ⅱ, 3 cases of type Ⅲ, 2 cases of type Ⅳ, one case of type Ⅴ and 2 cases of type Ⅵ. The width of tibial plateau was measured and compared before and after operation on X-ray films. Operation time, blood loss and fracture union time were recorded. Loss of reduction and postoperative complications were followed up. Knee function was evaluated at the final follow-up by Rasmussen scoring.Results:For this cohort, operation time averaged 54.6 min, blood loss 25 mL, and fracture union time 17.2 weeks. No nonunion or delayed union was observed. The postoperative width of tibial plateau was (78.9±7.2) mm, significantly narrower than the preoperative value [(87.4±6.1) mm] ( P < 0.05). No loss of reduction or surgical complications occurred postoperation. Deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremity developed in 2 patients but recovered after treatment. The Rasmussen scoring for knee joint function at the final follow-up yielded 9 excellent, 2 good and one poor. Conclusion:In treatment of tibial plateau fractures, our self-designed easily-breaking compression bone bolt plus bone plate can restore width of tibial plateau, compress fracture fragments tightly and allow for early exercise, leading to fine functional recovery of the knee joint.

Tibial plateau fracture is a common acute trauma of the knee joint. At present, there are many studies on its classification and treatment, and minimally invasive treatment has become a research hotspot and mainstream direction of tibial plateau fracture. We summarized the clinical results of minimally invasive treatment of more than 300 cases of tibial plateau fractures, and proposed the concept of core weight-bearing area on tibial plateau, that is, the core weight-bearing area of the tibial plateau of the knee joint under normal motion statuswhile walking and moderate-intensity running. We performed thinsection CT scanning of the knee joint in a male volunteer for three-dimension finite element modeling.The results showed that during the walking state (the load was twice that of gravity), the core weight-bearing area of the medial and lateral plateaus was 389 mm 2 and 363 mm 2, accounting for 33.2% and 42.9% of tibial plateau, respectively;during the moderate-intensity running state (the load was four times that of gravity), the core weight-bearing area of the medial and lateral plateaus was 418 mm 2 and 406 mm 2, accounting for 35.6% and 48.0%of tibial plateau, respectively. Accordingly, tibial plateau fractures are supposed to be divided into core weight-bearing fracture and non-core weight-bearing fracture, and there are significant differences in the treatment ofthese twokinds of fractures: reduction is more demanding for core weight-bearing fracture,and the fracture involves the core area closely, the anatomical reduction is sought; for non-core weight-bearing area, the reduction requirements can be appropriately low demanded, and even in some cases , for example simple avulsion fracture, marginal fracture, some tibial plateau Hoffa fractures,can be treated conservatively. In summary, during clinical diagnosis and treatmentpractice, orthopedic surgeons should take the core weight-bearing area fracture as the core of diagnosis and treatment, strictly evaluate the extent of fracture involvement, select targeted internal fixation materials, and target to promote more accurate, minimally invasive, and individualized treatment of tibial plateau fractures.

OBJECTIVETo study 3 different strategies of urine drainage following hypospadias urethroplasty, the clinical nursing in their application, and their effects.

METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 595 cases of hypospadias treated by urethroplasty. After surgery, 133 of the patients underwent urine drainage by suprapubic cystostomy (group A), 202 by urethral stent- tube indwelling (group B), and 260 by early initiative micturition with the urethral stent-tube (group C). All the patients received routine postoperative nursing care required for hypospadias repair.

RESULTSOperations were successfully completed in all the cases. Group C showed a remarkably shorter hospital stay and lower incidence rates of urinary fistula and urethral stricture than groups A and B (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in the three indexes between A and B (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONFor urine drainage following hypospadias repair, early initiative micturition with the urethral stent-tube can significantly reduce postoperative complications, decrease difficulties and workload of nursing care, and shorten the hospital stay of the patient.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in tissues angiogenesis. The adaptation of animals to hypoxic environment is relative to the microvessel density (MVD) in tissues. To further explore the adaptation mechanisms of plateau zokor (Myospalax baileyi) to the hypoxic-hypercapnic burrows, the VEGF mRNA and the MVD in cerebral tissues of the plateau zokor were studied. Total RNA was isolated from liver, and VEGF cDNA was obtained by RT-PCR, then the VEGF cDNA was cloned and sequenced. The coding sequence of plateau pika (Ochotona curzniae), rat (Rattus norvegicus) and mouse (Mus musculus) VEGF cDNA are obtained from GenBank, and the nucleotide and amino acid sequence homology of plateau zokor VEGF cDNA coding sequence with that of plateau pika, rat and mouse were analyzed and compared by using of bioinformatics software. The VEGF mRNA was detected by real-time PCR, and the MVDs in cerebral tissues of the plateau zokor, plateau pika and Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat were measured by immunohistochemical staining. The results showed that the open reading frame of the plateau zokor VEGF was 645 bp, and the coding sequence of the plateau zokor VEGF cDNA shared 92.1%, 93.6% and 93.8% nucleotide sequence homology to that of the plateau pika, rat and mouse, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequence of the plateau zokor VEGF cDNA was composed of 188 amino acids and the amino acids from 1 to 26 were signal peptide sequence. The plateau zokor VEGF188 was 90.2%, 94.9% and 94.4% homologous to that of plateau pika, rat and mouse. The level of VEGF mRNA in brain of the plateau zokor was significantly lower than that of SD rat, but there was no obvious difference in VEGF mRNA level between plateau zokor and plateau pika. The MVD in brain of the plateau zokor was markedly higher than that of plateau pika and SD rat. In conclusion, plateau zokor enhances its adaptation to the hypoxic environment by increasing the MVD. The level of VEGF mRNA in the brain of plateau zokor is lower than that of SD rat, which may be as a result of inhibition by the higher concentration of carbon dioxide in the burrow.
