Objective To improve the retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail based on humeral bone dissection and cl inical appl ication, and investigate the cl inical values of modified retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail for humeral shaft fracture. Methods Between March 2006 and March 2010, 146 patients with humeral shaft fractures were treated and fractures were fixed with the modified retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail (the modified group, n=73) and with the retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail (the original group, n=73). In the original group, there were 40 males and 33 females with an average age of 41 years; 41 cases were classified as transversefracture, 18 as obl ique fracture, 8 as spiral fracure, and 6 as comminuted fracture; the median disease duration was 11 days (range, 3 hours to 2 months); and close reduction fixation was performed in 27 cases and open reduction fixation in 46 cases. In the modified group, there were 39 males and 34 females with an average age of 40 years; 43 cases were classified as transverse fracture, 16 as obl ique fracture, 10 as spiral fracure, and 4 as comminuted fracture; the median disease duration was 13 days (range, 3 hours to 3 months); and close reduction fixation was performed in 31 cases and open reduction fixation in 42 cases. There was no significant difference in sex, age, fracture type, and disease duration between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). The fracture heal ing and functional recovery of affected l imbs were compared between 2 groups after operation. Results The operation time and intraoperative blood loss in the modified group were significantly less than those in the original group (P lt; 0.05). Iatrogenic fracture occurred in 3 cases of the original group, which were cleavage fracture of supracondylar. No iatrogenic fracture occurred in the modified group. All incisions of 2 groups healed by first intention without compl ications of postoperative infections, metal fracture, and loosening of internal fixation, etc. A total of 116 patients were followed up more than 12 months in 2 groups with 58 patients in each group. The fracture heal ing time was (15 ± 3) weeks (fresh fracture) and (30 ± 12) weeks (old fracture and nonunion) in the modified group, and was (16 ± 4) weeks (fresh fracture) and (35 ± 14) weeks (old fracture) in the original group, showing significant differences between 2 groups (P lt; 0.05). The results of Neer shoulder score were excellent in 65 cases and good in 8 cases, and the results of Aitken and Rorabeck elbow function score were excellent in 61 cases and good in 12 casesin the original group; the results of Neer shoulder score were excellent in 67 cases and good in 6 cases, and the results of Aitken and Rorabeck elbow function score were excellent in 63 cases and good in 10 cases; and the excellent and good rates were 100% in 2 groups. Conclusion The modified retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail has the advantages of easy operation and less compl ication, which is an effective and rel iable internal fixator.
Objective To investigate the closing method of wound after removalof the traditional pedicled abdominal flap. Methods Accordingto the design,the pedicled abdominal flaps were cut and lifted, and then the incision were extended from both sides on base of the flap to anterior superior iliac spine, respectively. After separating on superficial fascia, two flaps were obtained. The wound of donor site was closed completely by these two pedicled flaps. Twelvepatients with skin defects on hands or forearms were treated using the reformedmethod of traditional pedicled abdominal flap. Results All of the 12 reformed pedicled abdominal flaps survived, and only one had local necrosis on the distalpart of the abdominal flap, about 1.5 cm ×2.0 cm. Conclusion This new designcould provide a good method to close the abdominal wound after removal of pedicled abdominal flap.
Objective To establish dog model of testicular autotransplantation with a modified technique.Methods Testicular autotransplantations were performed on the right side of 30 male dogs, whose ages ranged from 1.5 to 2.0 years old and weights ranged from 14 to 17 kg. After the spermatic artery with a cuff of abdominal aorta and spermatic vein and with a cuff of inferior vena cava were detached, the testis was perfused and kept at icing temperature. An end-to-side anastomosis of the spermatic vessels to the external iliac vessels was conducted subsequently. The survival conditions of the auografts were assessed by digital subtraction arteriography (DSA). Histological examination and detection on the serum levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteotrophic hormone (LH), and testosterone (T) were made at two weeks intervals. Results Of the 30 testicular autotransplantations performed, 27 cases were successful. The success rate was 90%. The time of heat ischemia, cold ischemia, anastomosis of spermatic vessels, and total operation was 4.5±0.9 minutes, 50.0±10.0 minutes, 35.5±5.5 minutes, and 3.5±0.5 hours respectively. DSA proved that the testis survived well. No morphological abnormality was found at different stages of the spermatogenic cells. The LH level was higherthan that before operation, being statistically different (Plt;0.05);however, the levels of FSH and T did not changed significantly (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion A stable and feasible model of testicular autotransplantation is established and it provides a reliable experimental platform for human testicular transplantation.
Objective To modify orthotopic liver transplantation method with two-cuff technique. Methods On the basis of cuff technique, the donor liver was perfused through the abdominal aorta with 20 ml cold perfusate. The anastomosis of the suprahepatic vena cave(SVC) was sutured end-to-end with 8/0 nylon line,and the continuity of infrahepatic vena cave(IVC) and portal vein(PV) were established by means of cuff method respectively.The bile duct anastomosis was performed by internal stent. Results Orthotopic liver transplantations were performed in 360 rats. The time for donor operation and liver preparation was (31.2±5.0) min and (12.0±3.0)min，and the recipient operative and anhepatic time was (45.0±5.5) min and (20.0±2.5) min, respectively. The two-day survival rate was 91.4%.In nonintervention group, one-week survival rate was 86.5%. Conclusion The modified model is easily available and highly reproducible which provides a practical and stable experimental model for the study of liver transplantation.
Objectives To establish a course evaluation model for overseas medical students in West China Medical School of Sichuan University, to identify problems in teaching and to solve problems based on evidence so as to futher improve the quality of teaching. Methods We conducted a preliminary course evaluation to determine the limitations of our evaluation methods and to convey our intention to related stakeholders. Firstly, we identified problems in teaching according to the feedback from our students using a questionnaire. Secondly, we proposed an initial list of possible solutions to these problems based on evidence from literature searching and discussion within the Department of Teaching Affairs. We submitted the initial list to the administrative departments, teaching departments (teachers) and students to identify applicable solutions through two rounds of formal consensus. Their attitudes to this procedure of evaluation and decision-making were collected. Finally, incentives were given out by administrative departments and teaching departments to facilitate the implementation of applicable solutions. Results Teachers’ English ability and the didactic teaching methods were the most concerned problems. In addition, some semesters and courses were not well arranged and there was not enough practice time. An initial list of 14 items was submitted to teaching departments and students. They all agreed with the procedure of evaluation and decision-making. We also found that some aspects of the evaluation methods and styles need to be improved. An additional paper would report further results. Conclusion This preliminary evaluation was helpful for improving teaching and formal evaluation in the future. We need to strengthen the English language skills of younger faculty and gradually adopt a model of student-centered and enquiry-based teaching. This process of evaluation and improvement should be applied as a long-term policy and an evidence-based research group should be established to work together with our quality assurance unit.
