ABSTRACT
A total of 26 patients comprising 14 with delayed fracture healing and 12 with bone nonunion were treated via subperiosteum and fractured spatial injection of osteoblasts. Bone marrow was extracted from posterior superior lilac spine to obtain osteoblasts following in vitro induction, culture and amplification. Subsequently, 5-8 mL osteoblasts at a density of 1 ×105 cells/mL was sterilely injected into subperiosteum and fractured interspace in injured region using X-ray positioning. At 4, 6, 10 and 14 weeks after injection, callus formation was checked using X-ray. All cases followed up for 3-12 months, with the means of 5.3 months. Callus was formed after 4 weeks, fractured ends were wrapped up by callus after 6 weeks, and fracture line was unclear after 10 weeks and disappeared after 14 weeks. Bone fracture was healed, with the mean healing time of 12.1 weeks, suggesting that percutaneous subperiosteum injection of osteoblasts is an effective method to treat delayed fracture healing and bone nonunion.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of family visit and nursing intervention in promoting the re-habilitation of thoracolumbar fracture patients. Methods 115 patients with thoracohmbar fracture were divid-ed into the study greup(60 cases) and the control group(55 cases) by random hospitalization number. Patients in the study group were given regularly rehabilitation guidance initiatively at home by doctors and nurses for 6 months since discharge, the control group received conventional discharge guidance. Results After the inter-vention, the two groups showed significant difference in the functional rehabilitation, awareness rate of disease-related knowledge, mastering rate of relevant skills, incidence rate of complication, satisfaction degree with nursing. Conclusions Regular family visit and nursing intervention by the doctors and nurses can not only teach patients relative functional exercise methods, promote the physical rehabilitation of limbs, reduce inci-dence of complications and solve the problem of lack of care support after discharge from hospital effectively.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the relationship between estrogen levels and tenosynovitis in postm-enopausal women. Methods 74 cases of postmenopausal women,including 32 cases of tenesynovitis (group A),42 cases healthy postrnenopausal women for the control group (group B) were observed. 42 cases of normal menstruation women were taken as control group (group C). Results The estrogen level was (89.7066±126.7458) pmol/L in group A,(45.6768±30.6342) pmol/L in group B,and (626.7384±361.5348)pmol/L in group C,There is statistical difference between group A and group C (P<0.05). Conclusions Tenosynovitis incidence in postmeno-pausal women has no significant relationship with the level of estrogen change.
