Productivity outcomes for recent grants and fellowships awarded by the American Osteopathic Association Bureau of Research

The objective of the present study was to evaluate productivity outcome measures for recent research grants and fellowships awarded through the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) Bureau of Research. Recipients of grants and fellowships that were awarded between 1995 and 2001 were contacted by mail, e-mail, or telephone and asked to provide information about publications, resulting grant awards, advances in clinical care, or other notable products that were generated from their projects. For grants funded between 1995 and 1998, 76% of principal investigators reported a notable product from their study. By contrast, for grants funded between 1999 and 2001, only 31% reported a notable outcome. This difference most likely can be attributed to the lag time between the awarding of a grant and actual completion of the project, the processing of the data, and the publication of the results. Several recipients of 1999-2001 grants were optimistic about eventually generating a notable product. Most (79%) of the 1995-2001 fellows met the requirements for successful completion of their project. Many fellows exceeded the minimal requirement by publishing their results, continuing research activity, attracting extramural grant monies, or entering an academic position. It appeared that a much larger proportion of osteopathic fellows went on to academic careers than their counterparts who did not have fellowship training. From 1995 to 2001, the AOA Bureau of Research awarded dollars 3,072,140 in research grants and fellowships. To date, these awards have helped the recipients bring an additional dollars 5,659,329 of extramural funds for research at osteopathic institutions. The Bureau of Research grant and fellowship programs have been successful both scientifically and in terms of financial outcomes.     

小腿骨筋膜室综合征治疗体会

目的：本文介绍43例小腿骨筋膜室综合征的治疗经验和一种新的暂时闭合筋膜切开减压伤口的方法。方法：采用回顾性研究。结果：外伤后直接接受治疗的35例病人中，33例获得优良结果，无后遗症，1例因严重挫伤而截肢，1例手术后死于急性肾功能衰竭和DIC。由外院治疗后转入的8例病人中，5例出现Volkmann缺血性肌挛缩，3例因肢体坏死而截肢。5例筋膜切开减压术后的伤口采用人工皮覆盖，二次手术伤口直接缝合。结论：小腿骨筋膜室综合征早期采用保守治疗对部分病人是有效的，如在治疗过程中症状、体征恶化，应尽早行筋膜室切开减压术。采用人工皮及负压吸引系统覆盖伤口能迅速降低组织压，防止感染。     

小腿内侧脂肪筋膜瓣桥式带蒂移植修复对侧小腿软组织缺损简

目的报告小腿内侧脂肪筋膜瓣桥式带蒂移植修复对侧小腿软组织缺损临床应用结果。方法自2009年1月至2012年6月,应用小腿内侧脂肪筋膜瓣桥式带蒂移植修复对侧小腿软组织缺损7例（男5例,女2例）,年龄26～45岁,平均38岁。伤后时间：最短16d,最长36d,平均21d。筋膜瓣和血管蒂表面行一期中厚网状游离植皮,供区直接缝合。结果脂肪筋膜瓣全部成活。术后随访7个月-3．0年,平均2．6年。胫、腓骨骨折全部愈合,受区外形较好。结论这种技术很适宜修复伤肢仅有1条主要血管时伴有软组织缺损,减轻了对供区的损伤。

先天性马蹄内翻足小腿肌肉多项组织化学研究

本文对13例先天性马蹄内翻足及5例非神经肌肉疾病手术患儿小腿71个肌肉活检标本进行了多项组织化学研究。肌纤维ATP酶染色,发现先天性马蹄内翻足小腿胫后肌及腓肠肌Ⅰ型肌纤维增多及同型肌纤维聚集现象,提示有肌纤维失神经后神经再支配;肌纤维吖啶橙荧光染色及运动终板AchE染色未发现肌纤维有失神经后强橙黄色荧光及运动终板形态、功能异常,说明胚胎在生长发育过程中通过正常的神经再支配,达到了神经与肌肉在结构和功能上的完整。本实验研究结果支持早期肌力不平衡学说,为早期肌力平衡手术治疗提供了理论依据。
