Objective To discuss the treatment of traumatic anterior sternoclavicular joint disloca-tion with Fastin anchors. Methods A retrospective analysis was done for 14 patients with traumatic anterior sternoclavicular joint dislocation who had been treated with Fastin anchors from March 2006 to April 2008. They were 9 males and 5 females, with an average age of 35 years (range, 21 to 46 years) . Their diagnoses were confirmed by X-ray and CT scan. After reduction and temporary Kirschner wire fixation of the sternoclavicular joint, the anchor was driven into the manubrium sterni, with the suture at the end of the anchor securely knotted after passing through the internal extremity of clavicle. The Kirschner wire was re-moved after 3 weeks. Results All the patients were followed up for 12 to 22 months (average, 17 months). The results were excellent in 11, good in 3 according to Rockwood scale. There was no loss of re-duction or implant loosening. Conclusion Fastin anchor can fix the sternoclavicular joint reliably, avoiding potential risk of Kirschner wire migration and ensuring fine functional recovery of the joint.

BACKGROUND:Pelvic fractures combined with acetabular fractures are mostly caused by high-energy violence, often accompanied by severe complications and high mortality, and surgical fixation is preferred in most cases. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the internal fixation of pelvic fracture combined with acetabular fracture and to analyze the material biocompatibility. METHODS:A computer-based search of Wanfang, CNKI and PubMed databases was performed for articles related to the internal fixation of pelvic fracture combined with acetabular fracture and material biocompatibility published from 2005 to 2014. The keywords were“pelvis fractures, acetabulum fractures, internal fixators, materials”in Chinese and English, respectively. Articles published in authoritative journals or recently were preferred, and final y 29 articles were enrol ed in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Steel plate reconstruction or screw internal fixation is often used for clinical treatment of pelvic fracture combined with acetabular fracture. Titanium plate is often chosen with similar elastic modulus to the bone and good biocompatibility. The titanium plate is pre-bended before implantation to match the bone surface of the fracture site. Absorbable screws have good histocompatibility and non-toxic side effects, which can avoid the electrolysis and corrosion of metal screws and maintain certain strength in early period of internal fixation;over time, the fracture is gradual y healed, the material strength gradual y decreases, and the material is final y degraded into water and carbon dioxide to achieve good clinical outcomes. It is difficult and high-risk for treatment of pelvic fracture combined with acetabular fractures, and active treatment and damage control are recommended as soon as possible. A reasonable treatment plan can be developed based on the type of fracture. Plate internal fixation and minimal y invasive fixation developed by the three-dimensional reconstruction techniques show a great progress in fracture treatment, which have broad clinical application prospects.

BACKGROUND:Bio-derived xenograft bone has natural pore structure of the bone, low immunogenicity, and good cytocompatibility.
OBJECTIVE:To verify the biocompatibility of bio-derived xenograft bone with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s.
METHODS:Fresh pig femoral bone was col ected to prepare bio-derived bone. Scanning electron microscope was used to observe the material structure. Passage 3 rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s at a density of 2×109/L were inoculated into the cancel ous bone surface of the bio-dervied bone and cultured for 7 days. Cel growth was detected using scanning electron microscope. After culture for 8 days, cel number was counted.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The bio-derived bone had rough surface and irregularly interconnected pores constructing a mesh-like structure. After 3 days of compound culture, cel s had irregular shapes and adhered to the surface of bio-derived bone;after 5 days of culture, cel s were closely interconnected to form a layered growth;after 7 days of culture, cel s exhibited multilayered growth and the extracel ular matrix secreted local y. Under compound culture, the former 2 days were latent period, 3-6 days were logarithmic phase, and from the 6 th day, the cel growth curve became smooth gradual y and the cel proliferation decreased and entered into the plateau period. These findings indicate that the bio-derived xenograft bone has good biocompatibility with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s.

Objective To research the effect of regulating systemic inflammatory response by using ulinastatin in elderly patients after sevoflurane inhalation of postoperation cognitive function. Methods 60 patients under went elective abdominal surgery, were randomly double-blinded divided into 2 groups. Every group had 30 patients.Group A accepted continuously intravenousiy infusion ulinastatin 2000 units · kg-1 · h-1 , while group B got equivalent continuously intravenous infusion 0.9% sodium chloride injection. The time point of opening eye, extubation, response and the mini-mental state examination(MMSE) score on different time points were observed. Meanwhile, the changes of concentration of hs-CRP, IL-6,IL-10 were measured. Results Compared with two groups,group A has shorter time on response(F =4.399,P = 0.040). Two both groups had decrease of MMSE score 1 hour after surgery compared with preoperation(t =7. 732,11. 916, both P ＜ 0.01), and the score were less than the preoperative value of more than 2 points which showed cognitive decline in patients. But group A's rate of decline in MMSE score was lower than group B(F = 7. 582 ,P =0.012). Both groups had the MMSE score decline 6h after surgery (t = 4. 606,8. 615, both P ＜ 0.05). Group A's score was less than the preoperative value for less than 2 points, group B's score was lower than the preoperative value for more than 2 points, but the difference between the two groups was not significant (P ＞0. 05). Both groups had higher concentrations of hs-CRP、IL-6 、IL-10 at postoperative 1 d ,3d ,7d (all P ＜ 0.01), peaked at postoperative 1 d, and hadn't come back to the preoperative level 7d*after surgery. In group A, the concentrations of hs-CRP, IL-6 increased (postoperative 1 d,3d), but the rate was lower than the group B (F = 14. 885, P = 0.000;F = 4. 405, P = 0. 040; F = 18. 204, P = 0.000; F = 8. 074, P = 0. 006); while the increased rate of concentration of IL-10 was higher than the group B(F=5.197,P=0.026;F= 12.236,P =0.000). Conclusion Ulinastatin could promote the elderly after sevoflurane inhalation rapid recovery of cognitive function, which may be related to the regulation of systemic inflammatory response.

Objective To investigate the content of cadmium in shellfish in Guangdong Province and make dietary exposure assessment of cadmium in shellfish.Methods The shellfish samples were collected from Pearl River Delta,Eastern and Western Guangdong Province using random sampling method.Point assessment method was used to evaluate the exposure of dietary cadmium intake from shellfish.The risk of dietary cadmium exposure from shellfish were evaluated.Results Three hundred and seven samples were included in the analysis.The median concentration of cadmium in shellfish was 0.630 mg/kg and the exceeding standard rate was 23.8％ (73/307).The exceeding standard rates in Eastern Guangdong,Western Guangdong and Pearl River Delta were 19.4％ (13/67),23.5％ (16/68),and 25.6％ (44/172),respectively.The corresponding median concentration of cadmium were 0.530,0.806 and 0.853 mg/kg,and the difference was not statistically significant (x2 =0.94,P ＞ 0.05).The average (P50) and high level (P97.5) daily intake of cadmium from shellfish by the total survey population was 0.957 μg/d,and 4.511 μg/d,respectively.The monthly intake of cadmium associated with shellfish calculated from average and P97.5 exposure doses accounted for 1.91％ and 9.02％ of PTMI,respectively.Conclusion The cadmium content of some shellfish in Guangdong Province exceeded the standard.However,the cadmium intake from shellfish by the survey population was not high.

Objective To explore the operative techniques for AO/OTA type 31-A3.1 and 31-A3.2 intertrochanteric fractures fixed with intrameduallary nail.Methods Seventy-four cases of unstable intertrochanteric fracture (AO/OTA type 31-A3.1 and 31-A3.2) from January 2007 to December 2010 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 33 males and 41 females,aged from 36-87 years (mean,71 years).The right hip was involved in 34 patients and the left in 40 patients.The mechanism of injury was traffic injuries in 27 cases,fall damage in 43 cases,injury by falling in 3 case and crush injury in 6 cases.Percutaneous joystick technique,Homann retractor technique,clamp technique and mini-incision was applied to aid reduction during the surgery.All cases were fixed with proximal intrameduallary nail.Clinical and radiographic outcomes were recorded.The postoperative hip function was evaluated using Harris score.Results With the aid of C-arm,closed reduction was performed in 73 cases.Only one patient experienced open reduction because of failure of closed reduction.Sixty-five cases were followed up for 8 to 23 months (mean,14.5 months).Bone union was observed in all cases with the average time of 7.4 months (range,8-23).The operation time,blood loss,the frequency of X-ray exposure was 75±4 minutes,135±5 ml and 24±3 times,respectively.At final follow-up,29 cases were classified as excellent,31 as good,and 5 as fair.The mean Harris hip score was 91.4 points (range,87-95).The overall rate of excellent or good result was 92.3％.Conclusion It is difficult to perform close reduction for unstable intertrochanteric hip fracture (AO/OTA type 31-A3.1and 31-A3.2),especially in relatively young patients.Special operative skills are necessary in some cases.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the technique and clinical outcomes of supra-acetabular external fixation in treating pelvic fractures associated with injuries of abdominal organs.MethodsThere were 17 cases of pelvic fractures associated with injuries of abdominal organs.Nine were males and 8 were females,with the average age of 42 years(range,21-75 years).The injury was caused by traffic accident in 9 cases,fall-down from height in 4,and crush by heavy objects in 6.According to Tile classification of pelvic fractures,7 were type B1,3 were type B2,2 were type B3,4 were type C1 and 1 was type C2.Fifteen cases suffered with hemorrhagic shock,2 with perineal injury and 12 with fractures of the limbs.All patients were treated with supra-acetabular external fixation and the outcomes were evaluated by Cole's clinical scoring,Matta and Tornetta's radiographic standards.ResultsAll 17 cases were followed up with the mean period of 6.5 months (range,2-18 months).The average time of operation was 15 min (range,9-25 min).The mean blood loss was 17 ml(range,5-25 ml).All fractures healed and the mean healing period was 9.2 weeks (range,8-12 weeks).Three had transient palsy of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve.Five had soft tissue infection while the bony structures were not involved.According to Cole's scoring for pelvic fractures,15 cases were excellent,1 case was good and 1 case was fair,with the good-excellent rate of 94.12％.According to Matta and Tornetta's standards of fracture reduction,12 were excellent,3 were good and 2 were fair,with the good-excellent rate of 88.24％.ConclusionSupra-acetabular external fixation is a minimal invasive and convenient method for treating pelvic fractures with abdominal organs injury which is mechanically stronger than traditional external fixation via iliac crest.
