Indications and limitations of locked plating

The goal of fracture fixation is to achieve bone healing and restore the function of the injured limb in the shortest possible time without compromising safety. Newer technologies such as the locking compression plate (LCP) and its derivatives are valuable additions to the orthopaedic traumatologist's armamentarium. As with any emerging technology, the indications will be extended until a threshold is reached and the limitations of the technology are seen. It is vital that surgeons involved in fracture care are aware of when locked plating is superior to other methods and also when they should use another treatment modality.This paper reviews the use of locked plating as a fixation method. Five topics covered in this review are: a historical perspective on locked plating, general indications, specific modes and techniques, patterns of failure, and an anatomical overview of current indications for locked plating.     

新型纳米根管充填材料对成骨细胞生长的影响

通过体外培养的成骨细胞,采用二甲基噻唑二苯基四唑溴盐比色法和流式细胞术对新型纳米根管充填材料(nHA-PA66)作用下的成骨细胞生长情况的变化进行研究,评价其对成骨细胞生长的影响。以该材料的细胞培养基浸提液作用于实验组细胞,对照组采用培养基本身。实验组和对照组成骨细胞的生长情况和细胞周期无显著性差异,表明该新型纳米材料对成骨细胞的生长和细胞周期无不良影响。提示新型纳米根管充填材料的成骨细胞相容性较好,具有用作根充材料的基础。     

甲氧苄氨嘧啶—PVP共沉淀物的研究

本工作用差示扫描量热法(DSC)研究甲氧苄氨嘧啶与PVP溶剂法制备的共沉淀物,表明已不存在甲氧苄氨嘧啶晶体。用x射线衍射法研究了1:12共沉淀物,证明无甲氧苄氨嘧啶的晶体衍射峰。经分光光度法测定结果,1:12共沉淀物比原药的溶解度大28.3倍。     

Central metabotropic glutamate receptors differentially participate in interleukin-1beta-induced mechanical allodynia in the orofacial area of conscious rats.

The present study investigated the role of central metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta)-induced mechanical allodynia and mirror-image mechanical allodynia in the orofacial area. Experiments were carried out on male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 230 to 280 g. After administration of 0.01, 0.1, 1, or 10 pg of IL-1beta into a subcutaneous area of the vibrissa pad, we examined the withdrawal behavioral responses produced by 10 successive trials of an air-puff ramp pressure applied ipsilaterally or contralaterally to the IL-1beta injection site. Subcutaneous injection of IL-1beta produced mechanical allodynia and mirror-image mechanical allodynia in the orofacial area. Intracisternal administration of CPCCOEt, a mGluR1 antagonist, or MPEP, a mGluR5 antagonist, reduced IL-1beta-induced mechanical allodynia and mirror-image mechanical allodynia. Intracisternal administration of APDC, a group II mGluR agonist, or L-AP4, a group III mGluR agonist, reduced both IL-1beta-induced mechanical allodynia and mirror-image mechanical allodynia. The antiallodynic effect, induced by APDC or L-AP4, was blocked by intracisternal pretreatment with LY341495, a group II mGluR antagonist, or CPPG, a group III mGluR antagonist. These results suggest that groups I, II, and III mGluRs differentially modulated IL-1beta-induced mechanical allodynia, as well as mirror-image mechanical allodynia, in the orofacial area. PERSPECTIVE: Central group I mGluR antagonists and groups II and III mGluR agonists modulate IL-1beta-induced mechanical allodynia and mirror-image mechanical allodynia in the orofacial area. Therefore, the central application of group I mGluR antagonists or groups II and III mGluR agonists might be of therapeutic value in treating pain disorder.     

性别对骨关节炎患者全膝关节置换术后康复效果的影响

目的 探讨性别因素对接受人工全膝关节表面置换术的膝骨关节炎患者术后功能的影响. 方法 前瞻性研究了 2003年 3月～ 2005年 8月期间行单侧人工全膝关节表面置换术(均使用不保留后交叉韧带后稳定型固定平台假体)的 40例 (40髋 )膝关节骨关节炎患者,男女各 20例( 20膝),对其相关的临床因素用 t检验和χ 2检验进行分析. 结果平均年龄:男 72.6岁、女 70.8岁;病程:男 10.4年、女 9.7年;体重指数:男 26、女 26;术后平均住院时间:男 17 d、女 18 d;止血带使用时间:男 104 min、女 94 min;引流量:男 806 mL、女 742 mL;术前、术后 1周、 2周和 1年的膝关节伸屈度数男分别为 7.0°～ 114.0°、 3.0°～ 91.0°、 0.4°～ 103.0°和 0～ 125.0°,女分别为 8.0°～ 111.0°、 2.0°～ 86.0°、 1.0°～ 98.0°和 0～ 122.0°;术前、术后 1周、 2周和 1年的膝关节活动度:男分别为 108°、 89°、 109°和 123°,女分别为 104°、 87°、 101°和 126°;术前和术后 1年的 HSS评分:男分别为 57、 89分,女分别为 53、 87分.两性别组各时间点的伸屈度数、活动范围及术前和术后 1年的 HSS评分差异无统计学意义 (P >0.05);而同一患者术前和术后 1年的伸屈度数及 HSS评分则差异有统计学意义 (P >0.05). 结论 性别对行全膝关节置换的骨关节炎患者术后功能无明显影响,全膝关节置换能有效缓解骨关节炎相关的疼痛并改善膝关节的功能.
