Comparison of Evaluation Results of Different Disability Standards of Long Bone Fracture / 法医学杂志

Objective To provide reference for further perfection and revision of standards relevant to limb injury by comparing the evaluation results of different disability standards of long bone fracture. Methods Thirty cases were selected from the long bone fracture cases accepted by our institution in 2018. These cases include 5 cases of shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle joints, respectively, to investigate the degree of loss of function of joints after long bone fracture. Disability evaluation was made according to Classification of the Impairment Related To Injury （hereinafter referred to as Classification）, Assessment for Body Impairment of the injured in road traffic accidents （now repealed, hereinafter referred to as original Road Standard） and Identifying Work Ability-Gradation of Disability Caused by Work-related Injuries and Occupational Diseases （hereinafter referred to as Work Standard）. The disability evaluation results of every domestic standard were compared with the joint damage rate of Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment （hereinafter referred to as GEPI）. Results The functional loss rate of joints （except ankle） was 26%-48%，and the ankle functional loss rate was 51%-64%. The mean value of GEPI joint impairment rate of the joints was 13%-22%, with the fluctuation range less than 10%. The rate of level 10 disability was 100% according to the Classification. The rate of level 10 disability was 27%, the rate of level 9 disability was 6% and 67% were not disabled according to the original Road Standard. The rate of level 10 disability was 10% according to the Work Standard and 90% had a disability above level 10 （47% were classified as level 7 disability）. Conclusion The people with limb joint dysfunction in this study had evaluation results with a smaller fluctuation range and better consistency according to the Classification and GEPI. The evaluation results according to the original Road Standard and the Work Standard has a less consistency. The Classification is more similar to GEPI and is more reasonable.

Anatomical basis and clinical research of pelvic autonomic nerve preservation with laparoscopic radical resection for rectal cancer / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

The clinical effect of laparoscopic rectal cancer curative excision with pelvic autonomic nerve preservation (PANP) was investigated. This study evaluated the frequency of urinary and sexual dysfunction of 149 male patients with middle and low rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic or open total mesorectal excision with pelvic autonomic nerve preservation (PANP) from March 2011 to March 2013. Eighty-four patients were subjected to laparoscopic surgery, and 65 to open surgery respectively. The patients were followed up for 12 months, interviewed, and administered a standardized questionnaire about postoperative functional outcomes and quality of life. In the laparoscopic group, 13 patients (18.37%) presented transitory postoperative urinary dysfunction, and were medically treated. So did 12 patients (21.82%) in open group. Sexual desire was maintained by 52.86%, un-ability to engage in intercourse by 47.15%, and un-ability to achieve orgasm and ejaculation by 34.29% of the patients in the laparoscopic group. Sexual desire was maintained by 56.36%, un-ability to engage in intercourse by 43.63%, and un-ability to achieve orgasm and ejaculation by 33.73% of the patients in the open group. No significant differences in urinary and sexual dysfunction between the laparoscopic and open rectal resection groups were observed (P>0.05). It was concluded that laparoscopic rectal cancer radical excision with PANP did not aggravate or improve sexual and urinary dysfunction.

Effects of magnetic gemcitabine stealth nano-liposomes on the characteristics of breast cancer cell line MCF-7 / 药学学报

The magnetic responsibility and antitumor effect of magnetic gemcitabine stealth nano-liposomes (MGSL) on breast cancer cell line MCF-7 in vitro and in vivo was evaluated. The magnetic response and targeting effect of MGSL in vivo were investigated. Morphological feature and ultrastructure changes of apoptosis of MCF-7 cells were observed. The effect of MGSL on proliferation inhibitory rate of MCF-7 cells was measured with MTT method. The FCM analysis was carried out to examine the cell cycle distribution and cell apoptotic rate. The antitumor effect on human breast cancer xenografts in nude mice was also studied. MGSL was able to converge at the targeting tissue under tridimensional magnetic field and the gemcitabine concentration around it increased, while the amount of gemcitabine in other organs decreased, such as in kidneys and heart. MCF-7 cell line was sensitive to MGSL and the cytotoxity was correlated with the loaded drug dose. The effect of MGSL on apoptosis of MCF-7 was obvious and the rate of apoptosis was 51.62%. The growth speed of tumor in the group of MGSL (+) significantly slowed down than that of other groups. MGSL prepared by reverse-phase evaporation method met with the demand of targeted delivery system, and it might be an effective antitumor agent.
