RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effects of Porphyromonas gingivalis ( P. gingivalis) fimbrillin (FimA) on the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods:Wild-type P. gingivalis and fimA gene-deleted P. gingivalis ( fimA-/-P. gingivalis) were used to infect ESCC cells after morphology and PCR identification. Immunofluorescence, CCK-8 and Transwell chamber were used to detect the effects of FimA on the infectivity of P. gingivalis and it influences on cell invasion, proliferation and migration. Western blot was used to detect pSmad2/3 changes. The growth of tumor was detected in a nude mouse model bearing subcutaneous tumor. Results:Deletion of FimA might reduce the interbacterial adhesion of P. gingivalis. Compared with wild-type P. gingivalis, less fimA-/-P. gingivalis could infect NE6-T cells. Moreover, the proliferation, migration and invasion of NE6-T and KYSE30 cells as well as the activation of pSmad2/3 induced by P. gingivalis were inhibited after deletion of FimA. The growth of KYSE30 infected by fimA-/-P. gingivalis in nude mice was significantly slower than that of the wild-type P. gingivalis group. Conclusions:FimA mediated the effects of P. gingivalis on promoting the evolution of ESCC and was a potential target molecule to block the tumor-promoting effect of P. gingivalis.
RESUMO
Open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) is one of the effective treatments of medial knee arthritis and an important step in the treatment of knee arthritis. However, with the popularization of OWHTO, more and more of its related complications have been reported, including under- and over-correction of the alignment, tilted joint line, fracture of the cortical hinge, and changes in the posterior tilt of the tibial plateau. This paper reviewed the domestic and foreign research literature on the OWHTO treatment of knee arthritis to analyze the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications, treatment strategies and prevention methods concerning the complications in the treatment of OWHTO. A comprehensive understanding of the prevention and treatment methods of the complications can help avoid and reduce some of the complications so that OWHTO can be popularized more widely.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the mid-term efficacy of porous titanium trabecular metal ( TTM ) components manufactured by 3D printing for primary total hip arthroplasty ( THA ). Methods Enrolled for this prospective clinical trial were 19 patients ( 20 hips ) who were to receive primary THA from May 2012 to June 2013 at Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Puai Hospital. Of them, 9 patients ( 10 hips) used 3D printing porous TTM for acetabular prosthesis in primary THA while the other 10 patients ( 10 hips ) used Pinnacle acetabular prosthesis. At 5 years after operation, clinical and radiographic evaluations were conducted to assess acetabular component stability, osseointegration in the acetabulum-bone interface, and osteolysis incidence. Harris scores were used to assess the hip functions. Results The follow-up duration for all the patients averaged 5 years. By the Harris scores, 8 cases were excellent and 2 good in the TTM group while 9 excellent and one good in the Pinnacle group. The Harris scores were significantly improved from preoperative 48.2+5.5 to 92.8+3.1 at 5 years after operation in the TTM group and significantly from 46.5 ± 8.7 to 94.6 ± 2.9 in the Pinnacle group ( P <0.05 ). There were no significant differences regarding the preoperative Harris scores and those 5 years after operation between the 2 groups ( P > 0.05 ) . Radio-graphic evaluation showed stable acetabular components, fine osseointegration, and no implant loosening or osteolysis. Two hips in the TTM group had a postoperative radiolucent line which disappeared 6 months later. The 5-year survival rate of the acetabular components was 100% for both groups, taking prosthetic loosening or revision as the end point. Conclusion The 3D printing TTM has shown excellent mid-term efficacy but its long-term efficacy needs further follow-up study.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the 2496 biological samples collected from 1574 larceny cases and improve the application of DNA in the larceny cases. Methods Make a summary of the biological samples collection methods and DNA test results in different type of larceny cases. Results Touch samples have already become the most common type of biological samples in larceny cases, but their DNA test success rate are still low, more work should be done for the DNA mixed type to improve DNA hit. The DNA positive result rate had statistical difference in biological samples with different collection methods. For the Touch samples, flocked swab and original are the best collection methods. Conclusion More Valuable biological samples collected by the crime scene investigators are the Key factor in improvement of DNA detection capability, awareness of trace biological evidence and the touch sample collection technique are very important for the crime scene investigators.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of autologous drained blood reinfusion on hidden blood loss and limb swelling following rivaroxaban anticoagulation for primary total hip arthroplasty.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From May, 2011 to October, 2012, 98 patients undergoing primary unilateral total hip arthroplasty received rivaroxaban therapy for prevention of deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Forty-five of the patients used a drained blood reinfusion device (group A) and 53 patients did not (group B). Hidden blood loss and the maximal changes of postoperative circumferential length of the mid-thigh were measured and compared between the two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The mean total blood loss, the hidden blood loss, and the maximal changes of postoperative thigh circumference were 1591.1∓337.3 ml, 1591.1∓337.3 ml, and 5.1∓2.8 cm in group A, as compared to 1374.5∓317.3 ml, 467∓96.8 ml, 3.9∓1.4 cm in group B, respectively.

Objective Antiangiogenesis therapy has been shown to prolong survival for patients with malignant tumor .However the present study has not been observed the clinical benefit of antiangiogenesis therapy combination with chemotherapy treated with gastric canc-er.Human recombinant vascular endothelial inhibition (endostar) as a multi-targeted anti-angiogenesis drug, the mechanism is different from other Antiangiogenesis drugs.It can block different pathways of signal transduction to inhibit angiogenesis .This study aimed to observe the effect of combined application of endostar and paclitaxel on biological behavior of gastric cancer cell lines . Methods MMT assay and Tr-answell invasion assay were respectively used to examine the inhibition rate of cell growth and invasion ability when cells were treated with va-rious concentrations of endostar and paclitaxel alone or in combination.The protein expressions of VEGF,MMP-2 and MMP-9 were examined by Western blot. Results Endostar or paclitaxel effectively inhibited the growth of MGC803 cells and the in vitro invasion of MGC803 cells in a concentration-dependent manner.The proliferation and invasion ability of combined treatment with endostar and paclitaxel was significantly lower than that of endostar or paclitaxel alone (P<0.05).Compared with con-trol group, the VEGF,MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein expressions were de-creased in experimental groups ( P <0.05).Compared with paclitaxel group, the VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein expressions were relatively reduced in combination groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Endostar combined with paclitaxel can suppress the growth and invasion of MGC803 cells, and the decreasing VEGF , MMP-2 and MMP-9 expressions may be involved in the mechanism .
RESUMO
Objective To explore the early-term efficacy of porous titanium trabecular metal acetabular (TTM) compo-nents produced by E-beam technology in total hip arthroplasty(THA). Methods From May 2012 to JUN 2013, nineteen primary THA patients (20 hips) were devided into observation group of porous TTM acetabular prosthesis produced by E-beam technology and control group of Pinnacle acetabular prosthesis. TTM group had nine patients (10 hips), including 7 males and 2 females, with the mean age of 61.0 years. Pinnacle group had ten patients (10 hips), including 6 males and 4 females, with the mean age of 58.6 years. The patients were followed up at the 6,12,24 weeks after operation. X-rays were taken at the follow-ups. Acetabular compo-nent stability and osseointegration were assessed through radiograph. Harris scores system,SF-36 Heath Survey Questionnaire and WOMAC Osteoarthritis index were recorded before and after operation to evaluate clinical effects of surgery. Results In TTM group, the Harris score improved from 48.2 ± 5.5 preoperatively to 89.5 ± 4.0 postoperatively, SF-36 scores from 329.1 ± 86.7 to 763.8 ± 15.1, and WOMAC index from 18.8 ± 11.0 to 1.3 ± 0.9. No cases suffered aseptic loosening and migration. After 24 weeks, There was no significant difference regarding Harris scores system,SF-36 Heath Survey Questionnaire and WOMAC Os-teoarthritis index between two groups. In TTM group, two hips had a radiolucent line postoperatively, which occurred in 2 and 3 zone. The lines were disappeared 24 weeks later. Conclusion In THA, the initial stability of TTM produced by E-beam tech-nology was fine, which can facilitate bone ingrowth in early stage. However, the long-term follow-up effect still needs to be con-firmed.
