Objective To evaluate the effect of anterior minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) for treatment of middle humeral shaft fracture.Methods From November 2011 to March 2014,10 cases of middle humeral shaft fracture were treated using MIPO via the anterior approach (MIPO group).Another 26 cases treated by open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the middle humeral shaft fracture between October 2010 and March 2014 were included as controls (ORIF group).Fracture fixation using the 4.5 mm locking compression plate (LCP) was performed in both groups.Parameter measurements included operative time,intraoperative fluoroscopy times,grafting rate,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage,hospital stay,bone healing time and complications.Results MIPO and ORIF groups differed significantly with respect to intraoperative blood loss [(93.5 ± 25.6) ml vs (325.3 ± 158.3) ml],intraoperative fluoroscopy times [(13.2 ± 6.1) vs 4.0 (0-6.0)] and hospitalization [(11.9 ± 1.7)days vs (18.0 ±4.7)days] (P ＜0.05).Bone grafting and drainage were not performed in MIPO group,while bone grafting rate was 54％ and postoperative drainage volume was (120.4 ± 69.6) ml in ORIF group (P ＜0.05).MIPO and ORIF groups were comparable with respect to operative time [(79.0 ± 22.0) min vs (97.5 ± 30.8) min],bone healing time [(15.2 ± 2.5) weeks vs (18.2 ± 4.8)weeks] and postoperative complications (10％ vs23％) (P＞0.05).Conclusion Anterior MIPO is an effective procedure for treatment of middle humeral shaft fracture,with advantages of small trauma,less bleeding,low risk of nerve injury and high rate of fracture healing.

Objective To study the theraputic effect of cyclophosphamide,glucocorticoid combined with sildenafil on pulmonary hypertension in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE?PAH) patients,and to analyze the prognosis adverse factors. Methods Forty?six cases patients with SLE?PAH from Tangshan Gongren Hospital from January 2009 to January 2015 were selected as research subjects. All patients were treated with prednisone, cyclophosphamide and sildenafil,and the course of treatment was 24 weeks. The treatment effect was observed, the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity score(SLEDAI),6 minutes walk distance and heart function before and after the treatment were compared. The effective and uneffective patients'clinical and test information were compared,and the prognosis adverse factors were analyzed. Results After 24 weeks treatment,the total ef?fective rate was 78. 3%(36/46). Pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP) dropped from (59±16) mmHg be?fore treatment to (45±15) mmHg after treatment,there was significant statistical difference(t=-4. 539,P<0. 01). SLEDAI dropped from (6. 6±2. 3) points to (2. 4±0. 8) points,,there was significant statistical differ?ence(t =11. 680,P<0. 01). The 6 minutes walk distance rose form (402±96) minutes to (465±97) minutes, there was significant statistical difference( t=-3. 137,P<0. 01) . Cardiac function improved significantly,there was significant statistical difference( P<0. 01) . There were 10 cases uneffective and deterirated patients,with the age of (42±6) years,36 cases effective patients with the age of (33±4) years,the difference was statistically significant( t=-5. 423, P<0. 01 ) . Uneffective and deterirated patients' anti?RNP antibody positive rate was 90. 9%( 9/10 ) , significantly higher than the effective patients ( 52. 8%( 19/36 ) ,χ2 = 4. 552, P<0. 01 ) . Conclusion Cyclophosphamide, glucocorticoid combined with sildenafil has obvious effect on patients with SLE?PAH. PASP,heart function and 6 minutes walk distance are the important indicators of prognosis. Anti?RNP antibody and age are the adverse prognostic factors.

BACKGROUND:The non-specific immune suppression method is generaly used for treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus, but poor prognosis, such as infection and high recurrence rate, exists.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation on systemic lupus erythematosus in mice.
METHODS:Sixteen mice with systemic lupus erythematosus were equivalently randomized into control and experimental groups, or then subjected to passage 3 bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation or the equal volume of normal saline via the tail vein, respectively. Mouse urine samples were colected to detect urine protein levels by Bradford method. Blood samples from the tip of the mouse tail were extracted to detect serum anti-ds-DNS antibody concentration by radioimmunoassay. Mouse kidney tissues were taken and observed pathohistologicaly through hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemistry staining under microscope. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of CD4+CD25+T cels in the inner canthus blood, fresh spleen and thymus.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Within 10 weeks after cel transplantation, the urine protein levels in the two groups were gradualy increased, and the rising velocity was higher in the control group than in the experimental group. From the 4th to 10th week, the urine protein levels in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). In the control group, lymphocyte infiltration was visible in the kidney tissues with a few of plasmocytes, and pathological findings showed the mice presented with interstitial nephritis; in the experimental group, the mice had no pathological changes in the kidney. In the two groups, immune complexes were found in the mesangial area, which showed a patch-like distribution in the control group and a punctate distribution in the experimental group; the relative proportion of the occupied area in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group. The expression level of CD4+CD25+T cels in the blood and thymus were significantly higher in the experimental group than the control group (P < 0.05), and the expression level of CD4+CD25+T cels in the spleen was slightly higher in the experimental group than the control group with no significant difference (P > 0.05). The serum anti-ds-DNA antibody concentration in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). Taken together, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation can improve the pathological damage in systemic lupus erythematosus mice, and has a certain therapeutic effect on systemic lupus erythematosus.

AIM: To investigate the role of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) in early intestinal injury in scald rats with Staphylococcus aureus sepsis. METHODS: 86 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups as follows: normal controls ( n= 10), scald control group( n= 10), postburn sepsis group( n= 50) and SEB monoclonal antibody (MAb)treatment group ( n= 16). Plasma samples were collected to determine SEB, endotoxin, tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) and interferon-? (IFN-?). RESULTS: After scald injury followed by Staphylococcus aureus challenge, the levels of SEB, TNF-? and IFN-? in plasma were significantly higher than those of normal controls, peaking at 2-6 h ( P

Methods Clinical data of 12 patients who underwent a transurethral resection of bladder tumor by using a novel water jet was retrospectively analyzed. Results All 12 cases were successfully operated. Estimated blood loss during operation was less than 5 ml. Operation time was 20-45 minutes (median was 28 min), time of water injection was 8-15 minutes (median was 12 min). There were no significant complications. All patients were followed up for 4-10 months, and tumor recurrence or progression was not found by cystoscopic examination. Conclusion Transurethral resection of bladder tumor by using a novel pressure controlled water jet is advantageous with favorable safety and feasibility.

A new animal model of multiple system organ failure (MSOF) in rabbits is used in this experiment. The purpose of the current study is to observe dynamically the changes in the intestinal flora, the relationship between the changes and bacterial translocation to various organs and endotoxemia. The results show that there is no obvious alteration in population of Bacteroides, but a significant increase in enteric bacilli population in the contents of the ileocecum is found. Changes in the intestinal micro-flora correlate to the positive bacterial culture of the blood, viscera, and the level of endotoxin in the plasma. The results of our work suggest that ecological imbalance in the intestinal flora may promote-the gut-derived septic process and the development of MSOF.
