Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation combined with LC-II external fixation in the treatment of pelvic fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 28 cases with pelvic fractures treated with robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation combined with LC-II external fixation from May 2018 to November 2022. There were 19 males and 9 females, with an average age of 43.4±16.9 years (range, 14-74 years). There was 1 case of B1 type, 1 case of B2 type, 4 cases of B3 type, 10 cases of C1 type, 9 cases of C2 type and 3 cases of C3 type by Tile classification. All the cases were treated with closed reduction, LC-II external fixation for the anterior lesions and robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation for the posterior lesions. The operation time, fluoroscopy time and excellent rate of screw placement were recorded. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated by Matta's criteria, and the clinical effect was evaluated by Majeed score.Results:All the 28 cases successfully underwent the surgery. In 11 cases the fractures were reduced by the pelvic unlocking closed reduction device while in the other 17 cases manual reduction was applied. In this cohort, 43 screws were implanted. All the screw positions reached level I by Gras grading. The average fluoroscopy time was 16.3±5.2 s (range, 9-31 s) per screw. The average operation time was 154.9±54.7 min (range, 55-226 min). According to the Matta's criteria, the reduction was rated as excellent in 19 cases, good in 7 cases, fair in 2 cases, yielding an excellent or good rate of 93% (26/28). No iatrogenic neurovascular injury was found in all the 28 patients. The average follow-up was 18.3±7.3 months (range, 4-31 months). The fractures healed at 3.6±1.1 months (range, 2-6 months) after the surgeries. At the final follow-up, the results of the Majeed scores were rated as excellent in 13 cases, good in 11 cases, fair in 3 cases and poor in 1 case, with an excellent or good rate of 86% (24/28).Conclusion:The technique of robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation combined with LC-II external fixation used in the treatment of pelvic fracture showed good clinical results.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of TiRobot-assisted minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation for pelvic fractures.Methods:The clinical data of 44 patients with pelvic fracture were retrospectively analyzed who had undergone TiRobot-assisted minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation from May 2018 to April 2021 at Department of Orthopedic Traumatology, The First Hospital of Jilin University. There were 30 males and 14 females, aged from 11 to 78 years (average, 40.6 years). According to the Tile classification, there were 20 type C1 fractures, 23 type C2 fractures and one type C3 fracture. The time from injury to operation averaged 8.2 days (from 1 to 41 days). The minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation was assisted by the orthopaedic TiRobot in all patients. Operation time, fluoroscopy time, reduction quality, complications and functional recovery at the final follow-up were recorded and analyzed.Results:A total of 96 screws were implanted in this cohort. The total fluoroscopy time ranged from 17 to 66 s, with an average of 17.8 s for each single screw. The operation time ranged from 50 to 355 min, averaging 179.7 min. According to the Matta criteria, the reduction quality was rated as excellent in 36 cases, as good in 5 and as fair in 3, yielding an excellent and good rate of 93.2%(41/44). All the 44 patients were followed up for 6 to 42 months (average, 20.4 months). The fracture healing time ranged from 2 to 6 months, averaging 3.3 months. The Majeed scores at the final follow-up ranged from 51 to 100 points (average, 83.7 points); there were 28 excellent, 8 good, 7 fair and one poor cases, giving an excellent to good rate of 81.8% (36/44). Follow-up found no such complications as iatrogenic neurovascular injury, incision infection, malunion, implant loosening or fracture re-displacement in all the 44 patients.Conclusion:TiRobot-assisted minimally invasive internal fixation can result in fine clinical efficacy for pelvic fractures, showing advantages of accuracy, minimal invasion and safety.

Objective To analyze the failure rate and failure factors related to ventilator weaning off in children. Methods Clinical data of 214 patients who received mechanical ventilation in pediatric intensive care unit of Tianjin Children's Hospital from Jan 2005 to Dec 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 141 planned extubation events,122 of which were successful and 19 of which were unsuccessful.The failure rate of planned extubation was 13.5%. The failure rate of infants less than 6 months was higher than that of infants more than 6 months, but there was no significant difference ( 15.0% vs 9. 8%, P ＞0.05). The success rate of extubation in pneumonia cases (90. 7% )was higher than that in others (P ＜0. 05 ). The duration of mechanical ventilation had no effect on success rate of extubation ( (7. 64 ± 5.68 ) d vs (6. 95 ± 3. 14) d, P ＞ 0. 05 ). The duration of corticosteroid treatment after extubation in the successful group was less than that in the failure group ( ( 12. 35 ±9. 69) h vs ( 18.63 ± 12. 17) h,P ＜0. 05). According to the result of multiple linear regression analysis ( R2 = 0. 093), airway obstruction was the high risk factor of the extubation failure( F = 14. 256, P ＜ 0. 001 ). Conclusion Currently,weaning from mechanical ventilation in PICU depends on the combination of pediatricians' experience and objective indicators. The key point for improving the success rate of exubation is that we should explore reasonable and feasible extubation protocol and discover and exclude the related factors of exubation failure as earlier as possible.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic utilities of CD64,CDllb,sICAM-1 and sE-selectin in early identification of neonatal sepsis related to bacterial infection. Methods The group of sepsis consisted of 36 newboms and the control group included 26 healthy newboms. The blood samples were collected right after being admitted to hospital and at recovery stage in the group of sepsis,as for the control the blood samples were collected only once in the study. In the sepsis group,blood samples were also taken in bacterial culture before treatment CD64 and CDllb were quantified with direct immunofluorescence staining and the whole blood cell flow cytometry analysis. sICAM-1 and sE-selectin level were determined by ELJSA assay,along with CRP. Results The expression level of CD64 in neonates with sepsis was (60. 37 22. 70) .shown in MFI,which was significantly higher than that in the group of control (23. 14 ±5. 10) MFI(P <0. 01). The expression level of CDllb in neonates with sepsis was (1645. 14 ±463. 68) MFI,which was significantly higher than that in the group of control (1041.48 ±260. 34) MFI (P < 0. 01). The concentration of blood sICAM-1 in neonates with sepsis was (240. 20 ± 83.46) μg/L, which was significantly higher than that in the group of control (100. 24 ±51.03)μg/L(P <0. 01). The concentration of blood sE-selectin in neonates with sepsis was (29. 63 ±9. 88μg/L,which was significantly higher than that in the group of control (14. 12 ±5. 33)μg/L(P <0. 01). In the sepsis group,the level of CD64,CDllb,sICAM-l and sE-selectin in the primary stage was higher than the recovery stage significantly (P <0. 01). The sensitivity of above-mentioned molecular markers were 95. 7% , 82. 6% , 81. 8% and 87. 0% , respectively, and the specificity were 95. 8% , 79. 2% ,86.9% and 79.2% . CD64 was the best one. Conclusions CD64 may serve as one of the reliable biomarkers in the early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis, and it may play important role in the treatment of neonatal sepsis.

Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) is a unique minimal integrin-binding sequence found within several glycoprotein ligands and also in snake-venom disintegrins. Adinbitor, a protein with 73 amino acid residues including 12 cysteins and an RGD motif, was cloned from Gloydius blomhoffi brevicaudus in my laboratory. As a new member of disintegrin family, adinbitor can inhibit both human platelet aggregation induced by ADP and angiogenensis in vivo and in vitro, the typical characters of disintegrin family. To separate the effect of inhibiting platelet aggregation from that of inhibiting angiogenensis, the motif KGD was introduced into adinbitor cDNA to replace RGD by site-directed and PCR-based mutagenesis. The recombinant protein (recombinant adinbitor (KGD)) was expressed in E. coli BL21 and purified through the His· Bind affinity chromatography. Recombinant adinbitor (KGD) could inhibit ADP-induced platelet aggregation with IC50 value of 85 nmol/L. Considerably, it was a more effective inhibitor on platelet aggregation than recombinant adinbitor (RGD), which has an IC50 of 150 nmol/L. Interestingly, recombinant adinbitor (KGD) has no potency in inhibiting angiogenesis in vivo compared with recombinant adinbitor (RGD). These findings showed that KGD containing adinbitor was more suitable for inhibiting ADP-induced human platelet aggregation as a potential and specific inhibitor of human platelet aggregation, which might have promising therapeutic potential as an antithrombotic agent.

rAdinbitor was cloned from Gloydius blomhoffi brevicaudus in the laboratory. Previous researches had proved that rAdinbitor could inhibit proliferation of C6 glioma cells as well as promote their apoptosis. The molecular mechanism of rAdinbitor’s effects on C6 cells need to be further studied. rAdinbitor was expressed in E. coli BL21/pET23b-adinbitor and purified with Ni Sepharose 6 Fast Flow. The purified protein was confirmed by Western blotting. C6 cells were induced with fibronectin (FN). The effects of rAdinbitor with different concentrations on the expression of FAK, MEK1/2 and Caspase-3 as well as on activity of FAK and ERK1/2 in FN-induced C6 cells were studied by immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation. Results showed that rAdinbitor with different concentrations could obviously reduce the expression of FAK and MEK1/2, increase the expression of Caspase-3, as well as decrease ERK1/2 phosphorylation; besides 10 mg/L rAdinbitor, other concentrations’ rAdinbitor could inhibit FAK phosphorylation obviously. All those effects were dose-dependent. Results indicate that the effects of rAdinbitor on decreasing expression and activity of FAK and inhibiting Ras-MAPK signaling pathway play an important role in suppressing the proliferation of C6. Furthermore, the increase in Caspase-3 expression implies that the increase in apoptosis of C6 cells might be due to the suppression of rAdinbitor on the activity of ILK and PI-3K/Akt pathway.
