Pilon fractures with intact fibula have been associated with low-energy trauma. However, the compression force onto the ankle joint can damage the tibiofibular linkage as in a Maisonneuve fracture. Herein, we describe a case of a patient who had a pilon fracture (AO type 43 C3.2) without a fibular fracture. Three-dimensional preoperative simulation by reduction with the surface registration technique was performed as the fibular length was intact and there was no reference for the tibial length. The preoperative simulation revealed superior fibular head dislocation and shortening of the distal tibia. After emergency external fixation on the day of arrival, a 2-staged surgery was performed. During the first operation, the fibular head was reduced and the tibial posterolateral fragment was fixed to restore the tibia length. During the second operation, medial and anterolateral fragments were fixed in order to reduce joint surface of the distal tibia. In general, proximal fibular head fractures are easily overlooked. In the case of pilon fractures with severe length shortening of the tibia without a fibular fracture, a proximal tibiofibular injury should be suspected. 相似文献

Fibrillar collagen plays an essential role in ventricular remodeling, which is a major prognostic factor in various heart diseases. Inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), have been reported to play a role in various heart diseases and OPC-8212, a quinolinone derivative, has been demonstrated to reduce TNFalpha production. No studies have examined the effects of OPC-8212 on collagen metabolism in connection with inflammatory cytokine and growth factors. Using lipopolysaccharides as a tool to enhance TNFalpha, we examined the effects of OPC-8212 on the expression of type III collagen mRNA [alpha1(III)] in cultured neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts. We also measured the concentration of TNFalpha and transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) in the cultured medium. Northern blot analysis revealed that LPS reduced the expression of alpha1(III) mRNA, and OPC-8212 counteracted this reduction (on average 25% above the reduced level by LPS stimulation). LPS enhanced the TNFalpha concentration in the medium, and OPC-8212 inhibited this enhancement. LPS increased the TGF-beta1 concentration in the cultured medium, while OPC-8212 did not affect this increase. In summary, OPC-8212 counteracted the reduction in type III collagen mRNA expression by LPS accompanied by suppression of the increase in TNFalpha. 相似文献

Aims/IntroductionThe prevalence of obesity is rising in Japan and represents a considerable unmet medical need. The Awareness, Care and Treatment in Obesity MaNagement – International Observation (ACTION‐IO) study was designed to identify the perceptions, attitudes and barriers to obesity care among people with obesity (PwO) and healthcare professionals (HCPs) in Japan.Materials and MethodsAn online, cross‐sectional survey was carried out in 11 countries, including Japan.ResultsThe survey was completed by 2,001 PwO and 302 HCPs in Japan. Fewer PwO (58%) than HCPs (85%) perceived obesity as a chronic disease. Most PwO (81%) thought that weight loss was their own responsibility, and waited a considerable time before seeking support from their HCP (mean 6 years). Most PwO (64%) had made one or more serious weight loss attempt in the past. In contrast, a serious attempt at losing weight was reported by HCPs for just 21% of their patients. Just 24% of PwO had weight discussions with an HCP in the past 5 years; of those, 56% expressed positive feelings after such a conversation, and just 2% felt offended. Lack of patient motivation (68%) and patient disinterest (61%) were reported by HCPs as barriers to weight management conversations. A higher proportion of obesity specialists (37%) than non‐specialists (22%) thought their patients were motivated to lose weight.ConclusionsOur Japanese dataset shows a need to raise awareness of the pathophysiological basis and clinical management of obesity among PwO and HCPs. The largely positive feelings expressed by PwO after weight loss conversations should encourage HCPs to initiate earlier discussions before obesity‐related complications occur. 相似文献

Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is mitogenic and chemotactic for many cell types. HB-EGF
is induced in pathological states which require cell mitogenesis and proliferation, including angiogenesis, and has been reported
to interact functionally with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). To test our hypothesis that HB-EGF mRNA expression is
increased in myocardial infarction, we used Northern hybridization in rats to investigate the expression of HB-EGF and EGF
receptor mRNAs expression in the infarct zone compared to the expression of bFGF and FGF receptor mRNAs. We also performed
in situ hybridization to identify the cells responsible for HB-EGF mRNA production. HB-EGF mRNA rapidly increased after ligation
(mean ± SE, 5.6 ± 0.23-fold increase at 6 hours compared to the preligation heart levels) and reached a maximum level (9.1
± 0.42-fold increase) around 12 hours. HB-EGF mRNA then gradually decreased on day 1 (5.8 ± 1.0-fold increase), day 2 (3.2
± 0.94-fold increase) and day 3 (1.9 ± 0.33-fold increase) after ligation. Parallel changes in bFGF mRNA expression were observed
(6, 12 hours, days 1, 2 and 3; 3.6 ± 0.42-, 5.3 ± 0.12-, 2.3 ± 0.12-, 1.7 ± 0.03- and 0.95 ± 0.03-fold increase, respectively).
EGF receptor (ErbB-1) mRNA was gradually increased on day 2 (2.4 ± 0.53-fold increase), day 7(4.0 ± 0.61-fold increase) and
day 14 (7.0 ± 0.61-fold increase). Similarly, FGF receptor (FGF receptor-1) mRNA was gradually increased (days 2, 7 and 14;
1.3 ± 0.13-, 1.5 ± 0.17- and 2.3 ± 0.15-fold increase, respectively). Reperfusion after a 2-hour ligation (too late to salvage
myocytes) enhanced HB-EGF (12 hours, 16.8 ± 1.8-fold increase) and bFGF (12 hours, 10.4 ± 1.1-fold increase) mRNA expression.
The cells responsible for the increased production of HB-EGF mRNA were shown by in situ hybridization to be surviving myocytes located in the infarct peripheral zone around infarct necrotizing tissue. In conclusion,
our results demonstrated a rapid increase in HB-EGF mRNA expression concomitant with an increase in bFGF mRNA expression,
suggesting that HB-EGF and bFGF might play some role in the course of pathological changes in the infarct in the early inflammatory
phase. Reperfusion at times too late to salvage myocytes accelerated sequential changes in the expression of both HB-EGF and
bFGF mRNAs.

Objectives: Dermatopontin, a 22 kDa extracellular matrix (ECM) protein, has been shown to interact with other ECM components, especially
decorin, and to regulate ECM formation. We examined dermatopontin mRNA expression in the myocardial infarct zone. Methods: The cDNA encoding the rat dermatopontin was cloned by RT-PCR based on screening results from the Expressed Sequence Tag™
database. The dermatopontin mRNA expression was examined in the infarct zone after experimentally induced myocardial infarction
in rats by the methods of Northern blotting and in situ hybridization. The expression of dermatopontin mRNA was compared to
that of decorin and type I collagen mRNAs. Results: The isolated clone contained a 609 bp cDNA insert containing a complete open reading frame encoding 202 amino acids. The
rat dermatopontin cDNA showed high homology to human and mouse counterparts (>96 %). Northern blotting demonstrated that dermatopontin
mRNA expression did not markedly increase on day 2, but was increased on days 7, 14 and 28 by 2.4-, 4.1- and 4.2-fold, respectively,
compared to that in preligation hearts. Dermatopontin mRNA expression was regulated almost in parallel with decorin mRNA expression.
In situ hybridization demonstrated mRNA signals for dermatopontin in macrophages and spindle-shaped mesenchymal cells (fibroblasts
and myofibroblasts) located in the infarct interior zone around infarcted necrotic tissue on day 7. Coexpression of dermatopontin
mRNA with decorin and type I collagen mRNAs was observed in spindle-shaped mesenchymal cells. Conclusions: The present results demonstrated the time-dependent increase in the expression of dermatopontin mRNA in parallel with that
of decorin mRNA in the infarct zone. Coexpression of dermatopontin mRNA with decorin and type I collagen mRNAs suggests that
dermatopontin plays a role in ECM (fibrillar collagen matrix) reformation in the infarct along with decorin and type I collagen.

Biglycan mRNA expression in rat myocardium after abdominal aortic banding with renal ischemia was examined. The Northern blot analysis demonstrated that expression of biglycan mRNA in the pressure-overloaded hearts on days 2, 7, 14 and 28 was 2.88 +/- 0.89, 2.32 +/- 0.49, 2.17 +/- 0.57 and 1.81 +/- 0.46-fold higher, respectively, than that in the sham-operated hearts. In situ hybridization showed an increased density of biglycan mRNA signal-positive cells in the pressure-overloaded hearts. The cells with positive signals were spindle-shaped mesenchymal cells in the myocardial interstitium. A marked increase in biglycan mRNA signal expression was also observed in endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells of the thickened myocardial capillary wall. These results demonstrated an increase in biglycan mRNA in the pressure-overloaded heart in mesenchymal cells in the myocardial interstitium, and in endothelial and smooth muscle cells of the capillaries, indicating that biglycan contributes to the ventricular and vascular remodeling in response to pressure overload. 相似文献

Recent reports have shown that adiponectin has a suppressive effect on various types of malignancy. In order to clarify the role of adiponectin in colorectal carcinogenesis, we examined the effect of exogenous administration of adiponectin on intestinal polyp formation in C57BL/6 J-ApcMin/+ mice, which possess a point mutation in the Apc gene. And we found that adiponectin treatment significantly decreased the number of adenomatous polyps, especially polyps larger than 2 mm in diameter, in the small intestine. Two major receptors for adiponectin, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2, were expressed in adenomatous polyps, and their expression levels were not altered by adiponectin injection. In conclusion, adiponectin suppresses the growth of intestinal adenomas in the ApcMin/+ mice. Increasing the adiponectin level may be a new strategy for the prevention of colorectal cancer at an early step of carcinogenesis. 相似文献
