四种中药对骨愈合过程中相关基因表达的影响

目的:探索中药水蛭、海螵蛸、阿胶、骨碎补在骨折愈合过程中的干预作用,了解它们各自的调节靶点,探索建构其基因组学的途径。方法:通过在大鼠胫骨打孔的方法建立单因素干扰模型,并将300只大鼠随机分为正常组、模型组和给药组(分别用4种中药给药),每组50只,分别在实验的第4、7、14、21、28天不同时间点采用原位杂交方法对各类mRNA的变化进行动态观察,分析骨愈合过程中Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ型前胶原mRNA、转化生长因子TGF-β1mRNA、骨形态发生蛋白BMP-2mRNA以及血管内皮生长因子VEGF-mRNA的表达情况。结果:不同中药对不同基因的作用不同,作用的时间点不同,作用强度也存在差异。其中海螵蛸在骨折早期对Ⅰ、Ⅲ型前胶原mRNA、VEGF-mRNA、BMP-2mRNA的表达升高,后期Ⅱ、Ⅲ型前胶原mRNA表达水平下降,VEGF-mRNA、TGF-β1mRNA表达量维持于较高水平;骨碎补组较模型组在BMP-2mRNA、TGF-β1mRNA、Ⅰ型前胶原mRNA的表达上差异有显著性统计意义;阿胶对骨愈合早、中期Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ型前胶原mRNA和TGF-β1mRNA的表达与模型组比较差异存在显著性统计意义;水蛭对VEGF-mRNA的表达具有一定的促进作用。结论:海螵蛸、水蛭对血管形成有促进作用,阿胶、骨碎补和海螵蛸对骨折软骨形成早期具有促进骨诱导的作用,并对成骨细胞的增殖及合成活性有较大影响。     

Minimum incision endoscopic nephrectomy for giant hydronephrosis

Five consecutive patients with symptomatic giant hydronephrosis underwent minimum incision endoscopic nephrectomy. The originally huge renal specimen was retroperitoneally mobilized using both of endoscopy and direct vision, without the use of trocar ports or gas insufflation, via a single minimum incision that narrowly permitted extraction of the specimen. The specimen was successfully extracted from the incision in all patients. Technically, proper deflation of the hydronephrotic sac facilitates mobilization and enables extraction of the specimen. Median (range) size of incision, operative time, and estimated blood loss were 4 cm (3-5), 205 min (156-222), and 210 mL (110-350), respectively. No patient required blood transfusion or encountered operative complications. Postoperative convalescence was short and uneventful; all patients resumed oral intake and ambulance on the day following surgery, and were physically dischargeable from hospital after 2-3 postoperative days. Thus, this technique is a feasible, minimally invasive and safe procedure for symptomatic giant hydronephrosis.     

The effect of sucralfate,an agent for gastroprotection on the healing of split thickness skin graft donor sites

Skin is the most commonly used tissue for the transplantation. A meticulous care of the donor site is needed to prevent scarring, delayed healing, and pain. Various agents and dressing materials have been reported to help healing of skin graft donor sites. Sucralfate is an extensively used agent, which provides acute gastroprotection and acceleration of chronic ulcer healing. In this study, we assessed the effects of topical sucralfate on the healing of the split thickness skin graft donor sites in a prospective comparative way. The study was carried out on 32 randomly chosen patients undergoing surgery for various causes and requiring split thickness skin graft resurfacing. The upper halves of the skin graft donor sites on the thighs were simply covered with paraffin gauze and the lower half was covered with sucralfate-soaked paraffin gauzes. The day of full epithelization varied from 6 to 9 days and 8–12 days on the sucralfate-applied areas and on the control sites, respectively. The mean value of the healing was 7.01 days in the studied lower halves and 10.8 days in the upper halves. The healing rate was strikingly faster and less painful on the sucralfate-applied areas. We were able to discharge patients earlier than usual, and patients’ comfort increased. It seems that sucralfate is a promising topical agent to increase the healing rate and decrease the incidence of associated problems such as pain and hypertrophic scar.     

Sequential bilateral minimum incision endoscopic radical nephrectomy in dialysis patients with bilateral renal cell carcinomas

Since 1998, we have performed minimum incision endoscopic surgery (MIES) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). For seven dialysis patients with bilateral RCC, we have performed sequential bilateral MIES radical nephrectomy. It was carried out by retroperitoneal approach through a single minimum incision that narrowly permitted extraction of the specimen using endoscopy and direct stereovision, without trocar ports, without gas insufflation and without the insertion of the hands of operators into the operative field. Although six of the seven patients had multiple complications in addition to chronic renal failure (CRF), bilateral kidneys were successfully removed by sequential MIES radical nephrectomy without major operative complication. Postoperative recovery was prompt with all patients resuming oral feeding and walking by the second postoperative day. Sequential bilateral MIES radical nephrectomy, leaving the peritoneal cavity intact and without imposing circulatory stress caused by gas insufflation, is a feasible treatment for bilateral RCCs in dialysis patients.     

The effect of intraosseous graft length on tendon-bone healing in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using flexor tendon

The current study was performed to understand the relationship between graft length placed within the bone tunnel and intraosseous graft healing in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Twenty-four adult beagle dogs were divided into two groups of 12 animals each. In each animal, ACL reconstruction using a 4-mm diameter autogenous flexor tendon graft was done in the left knee. In groups I and II, the graft having a length of 15 and 5 mm, respectively, was placed within the tibial tunnel. The proximal end of the graft was placed through the over-the-top route in all animals. In each group, five animals were sacrificed immediately after surgery, and the remaining seven were sacrificed at 6 weeks postoperatively. Biomechanical and histologic evaluations were performed. In pull out testing, the ultimate failure load and the linear stiffness of the graft-tibia complex harvested at 6 weeks were significantly greater than those harvested at the time-zero period. There were no significant differences in those parameters between groups I and II at 6 weeks. In each group, the perpendicular collagen fibers connecting the tendon to the bone tunnel wall were observed only in the narrow area located close to the intra-articular tunnel outlet. In conclusion, excessively long placement of the flexor graft within the bone tunnel does not result in an additional increase of anchoring strength and stiffness of the graft in ACL reconstruction.     

碱性成纤维细胞生长因子（bFGF）加速猪背部创伤修复的实验研究

实验采用猪背部创伤模型，观察重组的碱性成纤维细胞生长因子（ｂＦＧＦ）对创伤修复的作用。在无菌条件下用特制打孔器在猪背部切割皮肤，形成２．５ｃｍ２的园型创面。将１５０个创面分成５组，分别以ｂＦＧＦ（６０ｕ／ｃｍ２创面），ｂＦＧＦ（（６０ｕ／ｃｍ２创面）加ＳＤ－Ａｇ、ＳＤ－Ａｇ、生理盐水以及不治疗等方法处理，每间隔一天换药一次。实验结果表明，ｂＦＧＦ具有显著促进肉芽组织生长、加速创面再上皮化率以及增加创面愈合组织抗张力强度等作用。ＦＧＦ显著促修复效应的确切机制尚不完全清楚，可能包括直接与间接效应两方面。     

Mammaplasty: Shape,volume, and scar size

Recently many mammaplasty techniques have been presented with special attention paid to the resulting scar's size and its position. The surgeon should try to hid the scar, and if the inverted T incision is used, its horizontal branch should be as short as possible and kept in the breast area. Neverthelss, excessive concern about the final scar size should not interfere with the final results of the mammaplasty as far as shape, volume and lasting results are concerned. The author presents his experience in mammaplasty with respect to the volume, the shape, and the scar size interrelationships.

Quality of ulcer healing influences the relapse of gastric ulcers in humans

The usefulness of dye-contrast endoscopy for the evaluation of the quality of gastric ulcer healing and the prediction of relapse was investigated. Sixty consenting patients whose ulcers healed during 3 months of treatment underwent endoscopy for the identification of the pattern of mucosal regeneration. Patients were monitored for relapses for up to 18 months after antiulcer therapy had ended. The pattern of regeneration was flat in 24 patients, nodular in 25 and intermediate in 11. Internal hypoechoic areas seen by endoscopic ultrasonography were less common and histological maturity was better in the patient group with the flat pattern compared with the patient group with the nodular pattern of mucosal regeneration. Prostaglandin E, synthesis was highest in the group with the flat pattern of mucosal regeneration and the relapse rate was lowest in this group. We conclude that the evaluation of the quality of ulcer healing is possible and that findings in individuals may aid the prediction of relapse for particular patients.
