Objective:To explore the effect of locking compressing plates (LCP) internal fixation under arthroscopy combined with Zhuyu Tongluo method in the treatment of distal radius fractures (DRF) and its effects on joint function, hemorheology, serum basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2).Methods:A total of 78 patients with DRF admitted to the Second Hospital of Tangshan City from June 2017 to January 2020 were selected and grouped according to the random number table method, with 39 cases in each group. The control group was treated with LCP internal fixation under arthroscopy, and the study group was treated with Zhuyu Tongluo method on the basis of the control group. The recovery, hemorheology (plasma viscosity, whole blood viscosity high cut, whole blood low cut, hematocrit), serum bFGF, BMP-2 levels, before and after the operation were compared between the two groups. They were followed up for 6 months and the range of motion of the wrist joints before and after the operation and the excellent and good rate of wrist joint function between the two groups were compared.Results:The swelling subsidence time, pain disappearance time, ecchymosis disappearance time, and fracture imaging healing time in the study group were shorter than those in the control group: (10.37 ± 3.13) d vs. (14.62 ± 3.38) d, (12.39 ± 2.97) d vs. (17.14 ± 4.02) d, (19.15 ± 2.35) d vs. (24.36 ± 3.27) d, (68.21 ± 7.12) d vs. (80.07 ± 8.24) d, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The plasma viscosity, whole blood viscosity high-cut, whole blood low-cut, and hematocrit in the study group were lower than those in the control group at 1 and 2 weeks after operation ( P<0.05). The levels of serum bFGF and BMP-2 in the study group were higher than those in the control group at 1 and 2 weeks after operation: at 1 week after operation: (356.27 ± 46.29) μg/L vs.(236.51 ± 37.42) μg/L, (614.28 ± 61.47) μg/L vs. (487.39 ± 48.24) μg/L; at 2 weeks after operation:(502.07 ± 113.21) μg/L vs. (381.59 ± 82.75) μg/L, (910.77 ± 97.20) μg/L vs. (731.35 ± 92.13) μg/L, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The palm flexion, back extension, radial deviation, and ulnar deviation in the study group were better than those in the control group at 6 months after operation ( P<0.05). The excellent and good rate of wrist joint function in the study group was higher than that in the control group at 6 months after operation: 89.5%(34/38) vs. 70.3%(26/37), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:LCP internal fixation under arthroscopy combined with Zhuyu Tongluo method in the treatment of patients with DRF can increase the expression of serum bFGF and BMP-2, reduce inflammation, improve blood rheology, promote fracture healing, and improve wrist range of motion and wrist function.

A total of 79 tibial fracture patients (47 males and 32 females; 16 to 73 years old) were selected from Department of Orthopedics, Huangbu Hospital of Huidong City, including 19 cases of open fractures and 60 of closed fractures. Forty-eight fractures in 79 patients were fixed with interlocking nails, 19 by revolving self-locking nail, and 12 by auto compressive locking nail. Operations were all successful. The average operation time was (102 ?10) minutes in the interlocking group, (65?10) minutes in the revolving self-locking nail group and (100?10) minutes in the auto compressive locking nail group. The patients were followed up for 6-10 months. In the interlocking group, one breakage of the screws was found, with one superficial infection and the other 3 achieved delayed bone fracture. The healing time of interlocking group was (21.0?3.2) weeks and the excellent rate of function recovery was (85.42?5.20)% by Johner-Wruh. In the revolving self-locking nail group, one developed delayed bone facture and the other one achieved dislocation; the healing time was (20.0?3.6) weeks and the excellent rate of function recovery was (84.21?4.10)%. In the auto compressive locking nail group, one had loosening screw and the other one achieved superficial infection. The healing time was (17.0?2.8) weeks and the excellent rate of function recovery was (91.67?3.70)%. The excellent and good rate in auto compressive locking nail group was significantly greater than the other groups (P

AIM: To study the effect of genistein on activation and proliferation of T cells,and explore the molecular mechanism of genistein. METHODS: Fluorescence conjugated monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry were used to detect the express of CD69 and CD25 by activated T cells in vitro in response to Concanavalin (ConA )and Phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate(PDB) or T cell proliferation stained by CFSE in response to PDB / Ionomycin or ConA. RESULTS: Genistein inhibited the expression of CD69 and CD25 in activated T cells in response to Con A in a concentration-dependent manner and in response to PDB in a high concentration. Genistein inhibited proliferation of T cells in both groups in a concentration-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: Genistein inhibited activation and proliferation of T cells in vitro in response to polyclonal stimulus,and it may hold potential as a new immunosuppressant.

AIM: To study the effect of natural killer(NK)-cells on graft-versus-host disease(GVHD), graft rejection, engraftment and reconstituting of hematopoiesis in mouse allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. METHODS: Lethally irradiated BALB/c(H-2 d) mice were transplanted with C57/6j(H-2 b) bone marrow containing donor peripheral T cells and/or NK cells. Recipients CD 34 + cell counts and the expression of H-2K b+ cell were detected by flow cytometry, peripheral white blood cell(WBC) was detected by auto-cytometry, and the recipients survival rates, GVHD, engraftment and hematopoiesis recovery were then observed. RESULTS: In the group of transplanted with NK cells infusion, the incidence of GVHD was evidently lessened, the survival rates, WBC and CD 34 + cell counts and the expression of H-2K b+ cell were significantly high than that without NK cells infusion. CONCLUSION: In mouse allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, alloreactivity NK cells prevent GVHD, reduce graft rejection, and promote engraftment and reconstituting of hematopoiesis. [
