ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the periopemtive blood loss of elderly patients with intertrochanter fracture that fixed with proximal femoral nail-antirotation (PFNA),and to explore the risk factor influencing the perioperative blood loss following PFNA fixation.Methods The clinical data of 62 elderly patients with intemochanter fracture treated with PFNA were analyzed retrospectively to determine the perioperative obvious blood loss and hidden blood loss.The impact of gender,age and fracture type on blood loss was also analyzed.Results The obvious blood loss of 62 patients was (120.6 ±42.0) ml,which accounted for 15.5％ in total blood loss [(775.8 ± 129.6) ml].The hidden blood loss was (655.2 ± 109.1) ml,which accounted for 84.5％ in total blood loss.The hidden blood loss was much more than obvious blood loss (P＜ 0.01).The total blood loss,obvious blood loss,hidden blood loss was (773.3 ± 131.5),(122.5 ± 44.1),(650.8± 114.2) mlinmahgroup (20cases),(777.0± 124.7),(119.7±40.2),(657.3 ± 107.7) ml in female group (42 cases),and there was no significant difference between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The total blood loss,obvious blood loss was (813.1 ± 107.5),(117.7 ±49.7) ml in advanced age group (35 cases),(727.4 ± 114.3),(124.4 ± 36.6) ml in non-advanced age group (27 cases),and there was no significant difference between two groups (P ＞0.05).The hidden blood loss was (695.4 ±74.1) ml in advanced age group,(603.0 ± 65.3) ml in non-advanced age group,and there was significant difference between two groups (P＜0.05).The total blood loss,obvious blood loss,hidden blood loss was (578.1 ±82.3),(68.5 ±23.1),(509.6 ±63.1) ml in stable group (14 cases),(833.5 ±84.1),(135.8 ±35.0),(697.7 ±79.3) ml in unstable group (48 cases),and there was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Hidden blood loss is the major part of perioperative blood loss of elderly patients with intertrochanter fractures that fixed with PFNA.Advanced age and unstable fracture type are risk factors of hidden blood loss.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Nano-hydroxyapatite/collagen (NHAC) has similar component, structure, and morphology to natural bone, characterizing by good biocompatibility, multiaperture, large aperture, high porosity, and high pore communication rate; therefore, NHAC is an ideal scaffold material for bone tissue engineering.OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility of rabbit bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and NHAC in constructing tissue-engineered bone.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: In vitro observational experiment was performed at Cell Laboratory of Jiangsu University from March to September 2006.MATERIALS: A one-month-old healthy male New Zealand rabbit was provided by Experimental Animal Center of Jiangsu University. NHAC was provided by Material Department of Tsinghua University.METHODS: Rabbit MSCs were isolated and purified in vitro, and the 3rd-generation MSCs were seeded onto NHAC. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Morphology and growth curve of rabbit MSCs; ② adhesion grade at day 5 and 10 after culture under scanning electron microscopy; ③ the amount of MSCs that adhered with NHAC on the 5th and 10th days. RESULTS: Rabbit MSCs were grown adherently with great reproductive activity, and the auxodrome was in accordance with Logistic auxodrome. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that the amount of MSCs on the 10th day was significantly greater than the amount on the 5th day (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: The adhesion degree of the compound of MSCs and NHAC is high.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:The microcosmic and submicroscopic organizations of tissue engineering scaffold matedals’superficial structure have all important effect on the eell adhesion and growth.By means of nano.Technique and three-dimensional porous technique,the resultant nano-hydroxyapatite/collagen(n-HAC)call imitate the component and microstructure of natural bone.OBJECTIVE:To observe the biocompatibility of human bone m arrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)cultured in vitro with nHAC.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING :Single samples observation was performed in the Experimental Center of School ofMedical Technology,Jiangsu University from September 2005 to December 2006. MATERIALD:nHAc was provided by the Material Science and Engineering Department of Tsinghua University.Humanbone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were derived from healthy adult volunteers.All the subiects signed the informedconsents. METHODS:Whole bone marrow culture and successive adherence method was used to culture MSCs in vitro,and the cells were then induced to differentiate into the phenotype of osteoblasts by the revulsants(methylprednisolone,vitamin C,β-glycerophosphate and basic fibroblast growth factor).MSCs at passage 3 were co-cultured with nHACfor 14 days.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The cytological characteristics of the osteoblast were identified throue,alkalinephosphatase immunohistochemistry method and Von Kossa stain.The growth condition with or without nHAC wasevaluated through invert microscope and scanning electron microscope,respectively.RESULTS:The cultured MSCs proliferated into uniform fibroblast-like cells rapidly.MSCs reached confluence and started to form multilayers averaging from 10 to 12 days,passaged stably as well.Then the MSCs passaged from 7 to 9 days.Cytochemistry evaluation showed that MSCs in induced culture were positive for alkaline phosphatase and Von Kossa stain,and deposited calcified matrix.It showed a typical ostcoblast feature in morphology and biology.In coculture model ofMSCs with nHAC,cells would attach to the inner surface of nHAC.At 8 days,the osteoblasts proliferated in the nHAC and the secretion of the matrix was observed.Lots ofcells adheredon the surfaceand pores of nHAC at 14 days.There wereextensive prominent connections among cells. CONCLUSION:THE nHAC is suitable for MSCs to adhere,grow and proliferate,with a good compatibility.
