OBJECTIVETo measure the changes of plantar pressure of the first tarsometatarsal joint fracture and dislocation by three different implants to provide experimental reference in selecting implants.

METHODSEight fresh foot specimens were made into the models of the first tarsometatarsal joint fracture and dislocation, which were fixed with 3.5 mm cortical screw, 1/4 tubular plate and compressive staple in turn. After the loading of 600 N, the changes of the plantar pressure in forefoot were measured by the method of the F-scan plantar pressure system.

RESULTSAfter first tarsometatarsal joint fracture and dislocation, the peak pressure under the first metatarsal head would decrease, while the pressure under the second metatarsal head would increased,whose differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). When the first tarsometatarsal joint was fixed with screw or plate respectively; the peak pressure under the two metatarsal heads would tend to be normal. However,the staple fixation showed the statistical significant difference compared with normal state, although the peak pressure under the first and second metatarsal heads were recovered in some extent(P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONAfter the first tarsometatarsal joint fracture-dislocation, the plantar pressure might be compensated partly by the adjacent metatarsal heads according to the regulation of the load transfer mechanism. While the first tarsometatarsal joint fracture-dislocation was fixated by screw or plate, the plantar pressure of the forefoot would return to the normal state. However,if the joint was fixated by the staple, it would still be difficult to return the plantar pressure to be normal.

Objective To explore the effect of continuity education by WeChat public information platform on health education to advanced lung cancer patients undergoing treatment by implanting 125 1 radioactive particles guided by CT after discharge.Methods During August 2014 and August 2015,60 patients with advanced lung cancer admitted into the department of oncology of 3 military hospitals in Fujian Province were equally divided into control group and observation group by a simple random sampling method:the control group was given conventional discharge education and the observation group was treated continuity care by way of follow-up WeChat public information platform for more than 4 times for each patient.The two groups were compared in terms of physical function,satisfaction and rate of complications 6 months after discharge.Results The physical function of the observation group was significantly improved as compared to that the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The satisfaction level was significantly improved as well (P ＜0.05).The rate of complications in experient group was less statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Continuity nursing with Watchat can prevent the occurrence of complications,relieve the pains of patients and improve patients' medical compliance as well as the quality of life.

Objective:To study the function of tumor necrosis factor r eceptor-associated factor 6(TRAF6) in the development of rat dental germ. Methods:After specimen preparation of every stage of rat developing d ental germs, immunohistochemical staining of TRAF6 was carried out. Resu lts:Positive expression of TRAF 6 was observed in thickening stage of de ntal lamina, peripheral dental lamina of bud stage, outer and inner enamal epith elium, stellate reticulum,dental papilla cells and dentinoblasts in early bell s tage, ameloblasts, dentinoblast,intermediate layer, stellate reticulum and denta l papilla cells in late bell stage, and dentinoblasts and ameloblasts in the ger m 7 days after birth. Conclusions:TRAF6 may be a signal transduc tion factor which modulates the proliferation and differentiation of developing epithelial and mesenchymal cells in the development of the dental germ.

Objective To investigate the eftect of VEGF gene transtection on endothelial progenitor cell derived from murine bone marrow.Methods Wistar rat's bone marrow was obtained, mononuclear cell isolated,and endothelial progenitor cells(EPS)were cultured in EGM-2MV.EPCs were identified by immunocytochemistry and electron microscope.EPCs were transfected by liposome mediated pcDNA3.0-hVEGF165.VEGF protein level was determined in the cultural medium supernatant after VEGF transfection by ELISA.Cultural medium supernatant was used to co-culture with ECV304,VEGF protein activity was evaluated by MTT.EPCs expression of vWF,VEGF,FLK-1 was detected by immunocytochemistry.Results EPCs were effectively enriched by EGM-2MV,and the EPCs obtained express the typical cell surface markers such as CD34,CD133,FLK-1.The concentration of VEGF protein in supernatant reaches 1280 pg/ml in the 7th day after pcDNA3.0-hVEGF transfection.No influence of EPCs proliferation could be found after transfeetion.The cell surface marker expression of VEGF,FLK-1, vWF became higher with time,and the ratios of positive cell were 88.52%,82.65% and 95.97% respectively.Conclusions pcDNA3.0-hVEGF165 transfeet EPCS mediated by liposome could excrete a high concentration of functional VEGF protein.It is helpful for EPC to maintain the characters of endothelial cell after VEGF gene transfection and differentiate to mature endothelial cell.

OBJECTIVETo study the anti-immune inflammation efficacy and toxicity of Tripterygium wilfordii decoction, in order to provide experimental basis for studies on its "efficacy-toxicity" correlation.

METHODThe delayed hypersensitivity model was established by dinitrofluorobenzene in mice. Different doses of T. wilfordii decoction was administered for 5 consecutive days. The ear swelling inhibition ratio and the toxic action were observed. After the final administration, the biochemical indexes of PGE2, TNF-α, IL-2, ALT, AST, PA, TBA, TBIL in serum were detected, and the visceral indexes of heart, liver, spleen and kidney were measured.

RESULTThe DNFB-induced ear swelling could be notably inhibited by multiple oral administration of T. wilfordii decoction, with the ED50 and its 95% confidence limit of 0.34 (0.21-0.42) g x kg(-1). The contents of PGE2, TNF-α, IL-2 in serum decreased in a dose-dependent manner. The activities of serum AST, ALT, TBA, TBIL and the PA content reduced.

CONCLUSIONT. wilfordii decoction shows a significant anti-immune inflammation efficacy within the dosage range between 0.59 and 2.34 g x kg(-1) in a dose-dependent manner. With a certain hepatotoxicity, high dose (2.34-4.68 g x kg(-1)) of T. wilfordii decoction can cause substantial liver injury, with a dose dependence in liver function index. Therefore, the efficacy and toxicity of T. wilfordii is dose dependent, which provides reference for preventing adverse drug reactions in clinic and developing early-warning schemes and ensure the clinical medication safety of T. wilfordii.

Objective To explore the method and effect of checklist tool implemented in the safety management of clinical blood transfusion in intensive care unit. Methods A checklist was specially designed according to the technical standard and check system of clinical blood transfusion. 379 patients prescribed a blood transfusion enrolled in ICU from January to May 2013 were conducted as the control group before the checklist was designed. After the application of checklist during the blood transfusion process, 846 patients prescribed a blood transfusion enrolled in ICU from June to December 2013 were conducted as the experimental group. The incidence of blood transfusion safety related adverse events between the two groups was compared. Results The incidence of adverse events was 1.32% (5 of 379 patients) in the control group, and there was no sign of adverse events occurred in the experimental group. The difference had statistical significance (χ2=11.21, P<0.05). Conclusion The application of checklist reduced the incidence of blood transfusion safety related adverse events,and effectively improved the quality of nursing safety and patient satisfaction.
