RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To compare the therapeutic efficacy of liraglutide (LRG) single drug combined with insulin (Ins) on osteoporosis in rats and its effect on bone mineral density (BMD). A rat model of diabetes combined with osteoporosis was established. METHODS: 40 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups (blank, control, LRG and LRG+Ins). Serum levels of CrossLaps, procollagen type I N propeptide (PINP), alkaline phosphatase (AKP) and osteocalcin (BGP) were detected by ELISA. Blood glucose was measured by its reaction with glucose oxidase. Serum insulin was analyzed by radioimmunology. Bone calcium and phosphorus contents were also recorded. ELISA was used to detect inflammatory factors. Bone mineral density (BMD) measurement was also performed. RESULTS: BMD of the control group was significantly lower than that of the other three groups (p<0.05) and BMD of the LRG + Ins group was significantly higher than that of the LRG group (p<0.05). The inflammatory factors of the control group were significantly higher than those in the other three groups (p<0.05). The inflammatory factors were negatively correlated with BMD (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: liraglutide in combination with insulin for the treatment of diabetes complicated with osteoporosis can reduce blood glucose in vivo, promote production of islet, effectively improve osteoporosis symptoms, increase BMD and reduce the levels of inflammatory factors in vivo.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the detailed biomechanics of TiNi shape-memory sawtooth-arm embracing plate (TiNi SMA) by comparing with limited-contact dynamic compression plate (LC-DCP) and static interlocking intramedullary nail (SIiN), so as to provide theoretical evidence for clinical application. METHODS: Eight paired cadaveric femurs immersed in formaldehyde were harvested from eight specimens of adults. After making X-ray films and modeling midpiece transverse fracture, one side randomly was fixed by TiNi SMA (group A) and SIiN (group C) orderly, the other side was fixed by LC-DCP (group B). The axial compression, three-point bending (pressed from plate side and opposite side both of group A and group B, from inside of group C), and torsion were tested, and the stress shielding rate was compared. RESULTS: At every classified axial compression load, the strains of group A were greater than those of group B and group C (P < 0.05), the displacements of group A were greater than those of group B and group C (P < 0.05) except 100 N. At every classified three-point bending moment, the displacement of group A were greater than those of group B and group C pressed both from two sides, but there was no difference when pressing from two sides under the same load of group A (P > 0.05). At every torsion moment, the torsion angels of group A were greater than those of group B (P < 0.05), but equal to those of group C (P > 0.05). At 600 N of axial compression load, the stress shielding rates of groups A, B, C were 48.30% +/- 22.99%, 89.21% +/- 8.97%, 95.00% +/- 3.15%, respectively, group A was significantly less than group B and group C (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The anti-bending ability of TiNi SMA is weaker than LC-DCP and SIiN; the anti-torsion ability of TiNi SMA is weaker than SIiN, but TiNi SMA is a center-type internal fixation, the superior stress shielding rate and micromovement promote the stress stimulation of fracture, which makes it an ideal internal fixation device.
