BACKGROUND:Intramedullary nail has achieved a good clinical result in the treatment of femoral shaft fractures,but some patients still have aseptic nonunion due to mechanical instability.The femur is the longest and largest bone in the human body,but there are few studies on whether the fracture of the femur has different biomechanical results in different areas and the influence of different inserting methods on the stability of fracture fragments in different areas. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biomechanical characteristics of anterograde and retrograde intramedullary nails in the treatment of different areas of femoral shaft fractures,and to evaluate the best way of insertion to reduce the incidence of nonunion. METHODS:CT data of a healthy volunteer were selected to import into the software of Mimics 19.0 and Geomagic studio 2017 to extract and optimize the three-dimensional model of the right femur.The anterograde and retrograde intramedullary nail models were built with Solidworks 2017 software and assembled with femoral shaft fracture models at different fracture areas according to standard surgical techniques.The models were imported into Abaqus 2017 software in STEP format to set material attribute parameters,boundary conditions,load and submit calculation,and the results were viewed in the visualization module.Among them,the antegrade and retrograde intramedullary nails of the upper femoral shaft fracture were A1 and A2 models,B1 and B2 models in the middle segment,and C1 and C2 models in the lower segment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In models A1,B1 and C2,the overall stress distribution of the femur was more uniform,and the placement,the displacement and angle of the fracture site,and inversion angle of the proximal femoral bone fragment were smaller.(2)For the upper and middle femoral shaft fractures,the anterograde intramedullary nail has a better biomechanical effect.For lower femoral shaft fractures,a retrograde intramedullary nail is preferable.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects and its mechanism of calcium phosphate bone cement (CPC) loading total flavonoids of Davallia mariesii on osteogenic differentiation of induced membrane in rats. METHODS: Drug-loading CPC and drug-loading polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) cement were prepared with the contents of Qianggu capsules (total flavonoids of D. mariesii as active ingredient) using CPC and PMMA cement as carrier. Totally 64 male SD rats were randomly divided into drug-loading CPC group, drug-loading PMMA cement group, no-drug CPC group, no-drug PMMA cement group, with 16 rats in each group. The femur of rats was separated and osteotomized to prepare bone defect model, and then the corresponding bone cement was implanted. Four weeks after modeling, the induced membranes of rats were cut and protected. Bone cement was taken out and autogenous cancellous bone was implanted. At the 4th week after modeling, X-ray photographs were taken on the hind limb bones of rats. At the 4th week after modeling and 6th week after bone grafting, induced membranes and new bone were taken from the bone defect area of rats respectively. HE staining was used to observe the morphology of induced membrane, and the width of bone rabecular and the number of osteoblasts of new bone tissue were measured. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expression of BMP-2 and VEGF in induced membrane. Western blotting assay was used to detect the protein expression of Smad1, Smad4 and Smad7 in new bone. RESULTS: Compared with other 3 groups, the degradation of bone cement in drug-loading CPC group was more obvious in the bone defect areas, which showed that the formation of induced membrane was observed and the bone defect areas were smaller; capillary endothelial cells were abundant and orderly arranged in the induced membranes, and the width of bone trabeculae and the number of osteoblasts in the new bone tissue increased significantly (P<0.05); the protein expression of BMP-2 and VEGF in the induced membrane, the protein expression of Smad1, Smad4 and Smad7 in new bone were increased significantly (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: CPC loading total flavonoids of D. mariesii promotes the formation of induced membrane osteoblast in bone defect model rats, which may be associated with regulating osteoblast differentiation by activating BMP-2/Smad pathway; at the same time, it can promote bone healing by promoting the differentiation of vascular endothelial cells, accelerating the formation of capillary network and increasing the expression of vascular endothelial cells.

Objective To investigate the effect of total flavones of Rhizoma Drynariae on femur distraction osteogenesis in the rabbits. Methods Thirty-two healthy rabbits were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 16 rabbits in each group. The femoral fracture was treated with unilateral femoral distraction and was fixed with a self-made distraction instrument. After 7-day intermittent period, the fractured femur was distracted at a rate of 1 mm/d, twice a day for 10 continuous days. The treatment group was fed with total flavones of Rhizoma Drynariae from the first post-operative day to the end of the experiment. And then all of the animals were sacrificed after fixation for 28 days. The bone specimens were used for histological observation and immunohistochemical detection. Results The area of mature bone in the newborn bone tissue of the treatment group was increased, and osteoblasts number and the percentage of trabecular bone area were significantly higher than those of the control group . The bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) were stained brown deeply, the staining degree being stronger than that of the control group. Conclusion Rhizoma Drynariae total flavones can effectively accelerate the formation and maturation of newborn bone tissue during bone distraction.

Objective To compare the efficacy of small splint fixation and plaster fixation in treating distal radius fracture. Methods One hundred and four cases of type A2 distal radius fracture admitted from January of 2012 to May of 2013 were randomly divided into small splint fixation group and plaster fixation group. After reduction, patients in the two groups were fixed with small splint and plaster separately. Wrist function scores, 36-item Short Form ( SF-36) scores and roentgenographic scores were evaluated for the two groups at different time points. Results ( 1) Within 3 months of follow up, the improvement of wrist function in small splint fixation group was significantly superior to that in plaster fixation group (P0.05). (2) SF-36 scores of the two groups were gradually increased along with the follow up. After follow-up for one week, 2 weeks, one month and 3 months, the SF-36 scores in small splint fixation group were significantly higher than that in plaster fixation group ( P0.05). ( 3) After follow up for one year, the excellent rate for roentgenographic scores was higher than 80% in both groups, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Both small splint fixation and plaster fixation have satisfacory efficacy in treating type A2 distal radius fracture. But during the therapeutic process, wrist function scores and life quality scores in the small splint fixation group were higher than those in the plaster fixation group.

ObjectiveTo understand the difference in characteristics between juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) and adult dermatomyositis (ADM).Methods Sixty-one cases of JDM were retrospectively analyzed and compared with 30 cases of ADM. Results The rashes were presented as the initial symptom in all expect one JDM patients. Gottron’s papules were presented in 90% JDM patients and 67% ADM patients. Calcium deposition was presented in 7% JDM patients and none of the ADM patients. The cardiovascular system was involved in 7 % JDM patients and 23% ADM patients. Cancer occurred in none of JDM patients and 13% ADM patients. In JDM and ADM patients, the ratio of elevated muscle enzymes from highest to lowest was LDH, hy-droxybutyric acid enzyme, CK-MB, AST, and CK. The positive ratio of magnetic resonance (MRI) all exceeded 80% in JDM and ADM groups. Two cases died in each group.Conclusions The clinical presentation of JDM is basically the same as that of ADM. The most common initial symptoms in JDM are skin rashes and Gottron's papules. Cardiovascular disease and cancer are less in JDM than in ADM. MRI is valuable in the diagnosis of DM.
