RESUMO
Objective: To observe the clinical effect of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) in the treatment of complex fracture and dislocation of foot with severe soft tissue injury. Methods: From March 2012 to January 2015, a retrospective analysis of 108 cases of the foot closed complex fracture dislocation with severe soft tissue injury in Department of Foot and Ankle, the Second Hospital of Tangshan City, Tangshan.Injury mechanisms included press and crush injury, traffic accident.According to the operation the cases were divided into the VSD group (56 cases) and the control group (52 cases). The injury foot swelling after treated by open reduction and internal fixation or fusion joint fracture and dislocation. VSD technique was used to cover the wound and wound in group VSD. The wound was sutured, the sterile dressing was covered and the dressing was changed regularly in the control group. Results: Preoperative hospitalization time: 16 days in group VSD, 28 days in the control group; the total hospitalization time: 33 days in group VSD, 53 days in the control group; wound healing: 29 cases in VSD group, 12 cases in the control group; prolonged healing after dressing: 16 cases in VSD group, 13 cases in the control group; after skin grafting healing: 9 cases in VSD group, 17 cases in the control group; healed after flap transposition: 2 cases in VSD group and 10 cases in thecontrol group.The difference of the data of the two groups was statistically significant, P<0.05.Maryland foot score: 55-98 (average: 88.8, median: 91.5) points in VSD group, 38-97 (average: 84.85, median: 91) points in control group, compared with median by rank sum test, Z value: -2.755, the difference was statistically significant, P< 0.05.The late recovery effect rating: 39 casesexcellent, good 12 cases, can be 5 cases, no poor in VSD group, excellent 29 cases, good 8 cases, can be 11 cases, poor 4 cases in the the control group, the difference was statistically significant, P<0.05. Conclusion: VSD can shorten the preoperative waiting time and total hospitalization time, improve the wound healing rate directly, reduce the skin grafting and flap transfer replacement rate, reduce the secondary injury, increased fracture risk reduction and internal fixation, reduce joint fusion rate in the treatment of foot closed complex fracture and dislocation with severe soft tissue injury.

OBJECTIVE: To detect the expression of long non-coding ribonucleic acid (lncRNA) NCK1-AS1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), analyze the association between its expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of NSCLC patients, and study the biological function of NCK1-AS1 in vitro. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The relative expression of NCK1-AS1 in NSCLC tissues and cells was detected via quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The association between the expression of NCK1-AS1 and the clinicopathological characteristics of NSCLC was statistically analyzed. The effects of interference in the expression of NCK1-AS1 on the biological behaviors of NSCLC cells were detected via in vitro experiments, including Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, colony formation assay and flow cytometry. After interference in the expression of NCK1-AS1, the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) was determined using Western blotting. RESULTS: The results of qRT-PCR showed that the expression of NCK1-AS1 was up-regulated in 50 out of 64 cases of NSCLC tissues. It was found via statistical analysis that highly expressed NCK1-AS1 was positively correlated with tumor size, TNM stage and lymph node metastasis. The results of qRT-PCR revealed that the expression of NCK1-AS1 was also up-regulated in NSCLC cells. After interference in the expression of NCK1-AS1, the proliferation of NSCLC cells was inhibited, and the cell cycle was arrested at G2/M phase. The results of Western blotting manifested that the expression of CDK1 was suppressed after interference in the expression of NCK1-AS1. CONCLUSIONS: The expression of NCK1-AS1 is up-regulated in NSCLC, which indicates a poor prognosis. Highly expressed NCK1-AS1 promotes the proliferation of NSCLC cells through activating CDK1.

Brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) and its high-affinity receptor, tyrosine kinase receptor B, have been assumed to be involved in female reproduction and have recently shown to play an essential role in follicle activation and oocyte maturation. In this study, we analyzed the expression of miR-10b and BDNF in the ovary and discovered that the expression of miR-10b was higher in monotocous goat ovaries than in polytocous goat ovaries, whereas the expression pattern of BDNF in ovary was opposite. Moreover, human chorionic gonadotropin induced rapid and transient expression of BDNF messenger RNA and protein. In contrast, human chorionic gonadotropin upregulated miR-10b expression in a time-dependent manner. The BDNF gene was identified as a direct target of miR-10b using a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Transfection of granulosa cells with miR-10b decreased BDNF messenger RNA and protein levels. MiR-10b overexpression inhibited cell proliferation, whereas BDNF promoted cell proliferation. However, a combined treatment with miR-10b and BDNF promoted cell proliferation, indicating that the reintroduction of BDNF reversed the suppressive effect of miR-10b. These results demonstrate that miR-10b downregulates BDNF expression in granulosa cells by directly targeting the 3' untranslated regions and plays an important role in inhibiting granulosa cell proliferation by targeting BDNF.

In this paper, 3 cases of malignant "triton" tumor are reported. By special stain, immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy, coexistence of rhabdomyoblasts and Schwann's cell elements was demonstrated. Case 1 was associated with von Recklinghausen disease; in case 3, the tumor developed within a nerve; both had background of malignant schwannoma. Case 2 was a girl with congenital giant pigmented nevus. Her tumor was composed predominantly of rhabdomyoblasts element but by immunohistochemistry, it was confirmed that her tumor also occurred within a nerve. The criteria of diagnosis, differential diagnosis and histogenesis are discussed.

Leprosy is a disease in which the social, economic, cultural and environmental factors play an important role in occurrence, spread, control, eradication and rehabilitation. Eliminating the unfavourable factors hindering leprosy control can make achieving the goal of basic eradication of leprosy in China before the end of this century possible. For this reason, since 1984 we have carried out systematic studies of the social aspects of leprosy in Baoying County, a former high-endemic area in Jiangsu Province of East China, where the endemicity of leprosy is nearing full control.

Based on our previous finding, of increased small airways disease in centrilobular emphysema (CLE) when compared with panlobular emphysema (PLE), we hypothesized that smokers who develop CLE would have increased airway responsiveness associated with airway inflammation and exaggerated airway narrowing, but not smokers with PLE. We compared preoperative methacholine challenge with the morphologic and cellular inflammatory characteristics of the airways in the lungs of six nonsmokers, 10 smokers with CLE, and five smokers with PLE. The airways of the CLE group were narrower than those of the nonsmokers (KS < 0.05) and the PLE group (KS < 0.05), but perimeters were not different. A greater percentage of airways in the CLE group showed infolding of the epithelium and lumen deformity than in the PLE group and nonsmokers (p < 0.05). Airway inner wall thickening (WI) was increased in the CLE group when compared with the PLE group and nonsmokers (p < 0.05), and WI correlated significantly with PC20 in the CLE group (r = -0.64, p < 0.01) but not in the PLE group and nonsmokers. The number of T lymphocytes in the airway walls correlated with PC20 in the CLE group (r = -0.50, p < 0.05) but not in the PLE group. In conclusion, despite similar age, smoking history, and range of airflow limitation, there was a clear difference in the methacholine responsiveness between the emphysema groups, suggesting that responsiveness is not just a reaction to smoking but either a reaction developing in some smokers or an abnormality initially present in some smokers which, in combination with exposure to cigarettes, determines the development of a type of lung disease: CLE.
