Objective To discuss the surgical indications,relative merits and clinical outcomes of anterior reconstruction plate fixation for treating unstable posterior pelvic ring injuries.MethodsA retrospective study was done on clinical data of 36 patients with unstable posterior pelvic ring injuries treated with anterior reconstruction plate fixation from August 2004 to July 2010 and followed up for minimum one year.There were 25 males and 11 females,at mean age of 35.8 years ( range,13-62 years).There were two patients with anterior dislocation of the sacroiliac joint and 34 with posterior dislocation.According to Tile classification,there were four patients with type B fractures ( B1:3,B2:1 ) and 32 with type C fractures (C1-1:17,C1-2:12,C2:2,C3:1 ).Results All patients were followed up for average 2.3 years ( range,1-6 years).Fat liquefaction and superficial infection were founded in two patients who were cured by dressing change and frequent but low-dose blood transfusion.Eight patients were subjected to iatrogenic lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury.Meanwhile,five of them was recovered after treatment with neurotrophic drugs,but there were still three patients leaving lateral thigh numbness.One patient had L5 nerve root injury due to pull force,and was recovered after three months of neurotrophic drug therapy.According to Matta and Tometta criteria,the reduction results were excellent in 23 patients,good in 11 and fair in four,with excellence rate of 94％.No reduction loss or implant failure occurred.According to Majeed scoring system,the clinical outcomes were excellent in 17 patients,good in 14,fair in four and poor in one,with excellence rate of 86％.Of the seven patients pre-operatively associated with sacral plexusinjury,three obtained full recovery,two got partial recovery and two were free from recovery.Conclusion The anterior reconstruction plate fixation takes advantages of wide surgical indications,simple exposure,low infection rate,satisfactory reduction and solid fixation and may be a main treatment method for unstable posterior pelvic ring injuries.

Image guided surgical navigation system is the most advanced surgical apparatus, which develops most rapidly and has great application prospects in neurosurgery, orthopaedics, E.N.T. department etc. In current surgical navigation systems, windowing, segmenting and registration of medical images all depend on manual operation, and automation of image processing is urgently needed. This paper proposes the algorithm which realizes very well automatic windowing and segmentation of medical images: first, we analyze a lot of MRI and CT images and propose corresponding windowing algorithm according to their common features of intensity distribution. Experiments show that the effects of windowing of most MRI and CT images are optimized. Second, we propose the seed growing algorithm based on intensity connectivity,which can segment tumor and its boundary exactly by simply clicking the mouse, and control dynamically the results in real time. If computer memory permits, the algorithm can segment 3D images directly. Tests show that this function is able to shorten the time of surgical planning, lower the complexity, and improve the efficiency in navigation surgery.

Objective To explore whether lipoxin A4 (LXA4)could prevent lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) monolayer hyperpermeability and its possible mechanism. Methods Human umbilical cords were obtained from women with normal pregnancy immediately after delivery from Tongji Hospital Affiliated of Tongji Medical College. Primary HUVEC were isolated from umbilical veins and subcultured, then, HUVEC were divided into four groups:control group;LPS group (10 mg/L of LPS); LPS + LXA4 group(10 mg/L of LPS and 100 nmol/L of LXA4); LPS +LXA4 + BOC-2 group [10 μmol/L of BOC-2, an effective antagonist of formyl peptide receptor like 1 (FPRL-1)]. All expriments were performed after cells were treated for 24 hours. Endothelial permeability was measured by fluorescein isothiocyan-ate labelled bovine serum albumin (FITC-BSA) clearance across the monolayer; tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-o) mRNA and secretion were detected by reverse transcriplase (RT) -PCR and ELISA assay respectively, and nuclear factor κB(NF-κB) protein change was determined by western blot. Results (1) LPS induced a significant increase in the permeability [Pa value of LPS group was (183.1 ±1.7)%], while co-administrating with LXA4 obviously attenuated this LPS-induced hyperpermeability, Pa value of LPS + LXA4 group was (103.1 ±2.2)%, LPS + LXA4 + BOC-2 group was (162.2 ± 2.8)%, control group was 100%, the permeability of HUVEC monolayer was significantly increased by LPS which was (83.1 ± 1.7)% of control (P <0.01), however, it was notably inhibited by LXA4 (P<0.05); the blockade of FPRL-1 could attenuate the effect of LXA4, that is, there was no difference between the LPS + LXA4 + BOC-2 group and the LPS group. (2) After treatment with different concentration of LPS(0,0.1, 1,10 mg/L), the mRNA expressions of TNF-α were increased (1.11 ±0.11,1.27 ± 0.03, 1.60 ± 0.06, 1.82 ± 0. 04, respectively), compared with the control group, at the concentration of 1,10 mg/L LPS, the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05). (3) The increased levels of NF-κB and inflammatory mediator TNF-α in the LPS group were both inhibited by LXA4. Levels of NF-κB protein and TNF-o mRNA secretion in LPS treated group (0.53 ±0.06 and 0.81 ±0.09 ,respectively)were both inhibited by LXA4 (0.19 ± 0.05 and 0.41 ± 0.07, respectively, and both had significant difference, P<0.05). (4) Levels of TNF-α in HUVEC culture medium of LPS group [(31.94 ±0.01)ng/L] was significantly higher than the control group [(18.17 ± 0.03) ng/L, P<0.05], LPS + LXA4 group [(15.72 ± 0.07) ng/L] was significantly lower than the LPS group (P<0.05). Conclusion Our findings demonstrated that LXA4 could prevent the endothelial cell hyperpermeability induced by LPS in HUVEC under which the possible mechanism was through inhibiting the expression of NF-κB and its related cytokines through receptor-dependent.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the effects of motor function of cerebral palsy children by the adjuvant therapy of acupuncture and its factors retrospectively.

METHODSFive hundred and twenty cerebral palsy children in hospital (from January 2005 to December 2014) who meet the criteria were selected through Doctor Workstation of our hospital. The cases were divided into groups according to the type of cerebral palsy, gestational age, complication, treatment time and age. Based on the physical rehabilitation, all the patients were assisted by acupuncture. Scalp acupuncture was used at(seven-intelligent needles), motor area, foot-motor-sensory area, etc. Body acupuncture were mainly at the governor vessel andmeridians of hand and foot. Treatment was given once every other day for eight months. Effects were evaluated by gross motor function classification system (GMFCS) and gross motor function measure (GMFM).

RESULTS① GMFCS:after eight-month treatment, the total effective rate of children with spastic cerebral palsy was superior to those of mixed type and involuntary movement type[77.9% (300/385) vs 60.3% (38/63), 56.9% (41/72), both<0.01]. The total effective rates of the above three types with gestational age from 37 to 42 weeks were better than those of the corresponding types with gestational age (<0.01,<0.05). The efficacy of children with mental retardation and language disorderwas higher than that of epilepsy and hearing disorder (<0.01,<0.05). The total effective rates of patients in the three types with the age of 1-2 were better than those of the corresponding types with the age of 2-4 (all<0.05). ② GMFM:after three-month and eight-month treatment, the GMFM scores of the three types were increased in different degrees (all<0.01), and after eight-month treatment, the score of the spastic type was increased more obviously than those of the other two types (both<0.01).

CONCLUSIONSThe motor function of cerebral palsy children can be improved assisted by acupuncture, and the effect may be related to treating time, cerebral palsy type, gestational age, complication and age.

When facing a sudden danger or aversive condition while engaged in on-going forward motion, animals transiently slow down and make a turn to escape. The neural mechanisms underlying stimulation-induced deceleration in avoidance behavior are largely unknown. Here, we report that in Drosophila larvae, light-induced deceleration was commanded by a continuous neural pathway that included prothoracicotropic hormone neurons, eclosion hormone neurons, and tyrosine decarboxylase 2 motor neurons (the PET pathway). Inhibiting neurons in the PET pathway led to defects in light-avoidance due to insufficient deceleration and head casting. On the other hand, activation of PET pathway neurons specifically caused immediate deceleration in larval locomotion. Our findings reveal a neural substrate for the emergent deceleration response and provide a new understanding of the relationship between behavioral modules in animal avoidance responses.

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary sarcoma of bone, and it is a leading cause of cancer death among adolescents and young adults. However, the molecular mechanism underlying osteosarcoma carcinogenesis remains poorly understood. Recently, cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) was identified as an important oncogene. We found that CDK6 protein level, rather than CDK6 mRNA level, is much higher in osteosarcoma tissues than in normal adjacent tissues, which indicates a post-transcriptional mechanism involved in CDK6 regulation in osteosarcoma. MiRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level and have widely been shown to play important roles in many human cancers. In this study, we investigated the role of miR-29b as a novel regulator of CDK6 using bioinformatics methods. We demonstrated that CDK6 can be downregulated by miR-29b via binding to the 3'-UTR region in osteosarcoma cells. Furthermore, we identified an inverse correlation between miR-29b and CDK6 protein levels in osteosarcoma tissues. Finally, we examined the function of miR-29b-driven repression of CDK6 expression in osteosarcoma cells. The results revealed that miR-29b acts as a tumor suppressor of osteosarcoma by targeting CDK6 in the proliferation and migration processes. Taken together, our results highlight an important role for miR-29b in the regulation of CDK6 in osteosarcoma and may open new avenues for future osteosarcoma therapies.
