RESUMO
Objective:To discuss the displacement characteristics of Garden type III femoral neck fracture and investigate the reliability, validity and clinical value of the frontal Garden index in assessing the displacement degree of Garden type III femoral neck fracture.Methods:The pelvis X-ray films of 98 patients with Garden type III femoral neck fracture treated at Luoyang Orthopedic-Traumatological Hospital of Henan Province (Henan Provincial Orthopedic Hospital) from October 2010 to October 2018 were collected, including 47 males and 51 females; aged 19-89 years [(64.9±16.2) years]. Three-dimensional data of the hip with 64-slice CT were available in 21 patients. Each patient′s frontal Garden index was measured three times by three senior doctors, which was repeated twice in turn. The distribution characteristics of the frontal Garden index were statistically described. The reliability of the frontal Garden index was tested by Spearman correlation coefficient and Kappa coefficient, including test-retest reliability and intra-rater consistency. The contact area of fracture ends and upper-shift distance of the femoral neck were calculated based on three-dimensional CT data of the hip in 21 patients. Correlation analysis of the contact area of fracture ends and upper-shift distance of the femoral neck with the frontal Garden index was performed by multiple correlation analysis to assess the validity of the frontal Garden index.Results:The Frontal Garden index of 98 patients with Garden type III femoral neck fracture was (136±15) °, with the minimum value of 90 ° and maximum value of 159 °, and was found to be normally distributed ( P>0.05). Spearman correlation coefficient of the test-retest reliability was 0.93, 0.97 and 0.95, respectively (all P<0.01). Kappa coefficient of the intra-rater consistency was 0.87, 0.91 and 0.86, respectively (all P<0.01). The frontal Garden index was positively correlated with the contact area of fracture ends ( r=0.80, P<0.01), and was negatively with the upper-shift distance of the femoral neck ( r=-0.77, P<0.01). Conclusions:The displacement degree of Garden type III femoral neck fracture shows diversity and normal distribution. The frontal Garden index can credibly and effectively measure the displacement degree of Garden type III femoral neck fracture, which may help to choose the treatment plan.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the significance of fibroblast growth factor 23 in metabolic bone disease of prematuriy.Methods 60 patients who had been treated in our hospital from March 2016 to March 2017 were included in this study.Blood biochemistry was examined two weeks after birth,and values of blood phosphorus, serum calcium and alkaline phosphatase were recorded. Serum levels of 25 hydroxyvitamin D3,parathyroid hormone and fibroblast growth factor 23 were detected two weeks after birth. 20 premature infants with metabolic bone disease were selected as a study group. 40 infants without metabolic bone disease were treated as a control group. Two weeks after treatment,the above indicators were measured and compared in the study group. Results Serum levels of 25 hydroxyvitamin D3,parathyroid hormone and fibroblast growth factor 23 were compared between the two groups 2 weeks after birth,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Levels of serum parathyroid hormone and fibroblast growth factor 23 in the study group were not statistically significant after treat-ment(P > 0.05). Levels of 25 hydroxy vitamin D3 in the study group had statistically significant after treatment (P<0.05).Conclusions Early detection of fibroblast growth factor 23 can reflect metabolic bone disease in pre-term infants.It suggests that vitamin D should be adequately supplemented in early.
RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the effect of curcumin on intestinal mucosal mechanical barrier in rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.@*Methods@#A total of 30 male Sprague-Dawley rats were equally divided into normal control group, model group, and curcumin intervention group. The rats in the model group and the curcumin intervention group were given high-fat feed for 16 weeks, and those in the curcumin intervention group were given curcumin 200 mg/kg/day by gavage once a day after 8 weeks of high-fat feeding. The rats were sacrificed at the end of week 16. A light microscope was used to observe pathological changes in the liver, an electron microscope was used to observe the tight junction of the intestinal mucosa, an automatic biochemical analyzer was used to measure the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), chromogenic substrate Limulus amebocyte lysate assay was used to measure plasma lipopolysaccharide (LPS) level, spectrophotometric method was used to measure the activity of serum diamine oxidase, ELISA was used to measure the serum level of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα), and immunohistochemistry was used to measure the expression of the tight junction protein occludin. One-way ANOVA test and SNK-q test were used for statistical analysis.@*Results@#Under the light microscope, the control group had no hepatocyte steatosis, the model group had significant hepatocyte steatosis and inflammatory cell infiltration, and the curcumin intervention group had reduced hepatocyte steatosis and inflammatory cell infiltration. Under the electron microscope, the control group had a clear and complete structure of the tight junction of the intestinal mucosa and normal structures of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum; in the model group, the structure of the tight junction of the intestinal mucosa was destroyed, the intercellular space was widened, the desmosomes had a loose structure, there was edema in some mitochondria, and the endoplasmic reticulum was dilated; the curcumin intervention group had improvements in the structure of tight junction of the intestinal mucosa, intercellular space, edema in the mitochondria, and dilation of the endoplasmic reticulum. Compared with the control group, the model group had significant increases in the serum levels of AST, ALT, DAO, TNFα, and LPS (q = -15.918, -14.402, -33.700, -8.944, and -10.832, P < 0.05); compared with the model group, the curcumin intervention group had significant reductions in the serum levels of AST, ALT, DAO, TNFα, and LPS (q = 10.457, 7.752, 18.802, 5.202, and 4.279, P < 0.05). In the control group, occludin showed a linear distribution along the top of small intestinal mucosal epithelial cells. The model group had a significant reduction in positive staining compared with the control group, and the curcumin intervention group had a significant increase in positive staining compared with the model group. The relative expression of occludin was 0.29±0.03 in the control group, 0.12±0.02 in the model group, and 0.21±0.02 in the curcumin intervention group (P < 0.05).@*Conclusion@#Intestinal mucosal mechanical barrier is impaired in rats with NAFLD. Curcumin can reduce such damage, and its mechanism of action may be related to up-regulating the expression of occludin in the intestinal mucosa and reducing the levels of TNFα and LPS.
