Passive Functional Training: hand training was conducted using the continuous passive motion system, once daily for 40 minutes each session.

Clinical significance of R-TEG in severe burn patients with coagulation dysfunction.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze Thrombelastography (TEG) data of severe burn patients to provide a clinical basis for timely diagnosis and treatment of coagulation dysfunction.

Methods: The present study comprised burn patients with full thickness TBSA ≥ 60%. The patients included in the study were admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University between March 2019 and March 2022 and died within 10 days.

Coagulation dysfunction of severe burn patients: A potential cause of death.

Background: Research on coagulation dysfunction following burns is controversial. This study aimed to describe the coagulation changes in severe burn patients by examining coagulation parameters.

Methods: Patients with third-degree total body surface area (TBSA) burns of ≥30% were enrolled between 2017 and 2020.

Mechanistic studies on the role of TGF-β1 in angiogenesis through EndMT.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the mechanism of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in promoting angiogenesis through endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT).

Methods: The mesenchymal transition of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was induced by TGF-β1. The angiogenesis, migration, and proliferation of HUVECs undergoing EndMT were examined by tube formation assay, scratch assay, Transwell assay, and CCK-8 assay.

[Involvement of PI 3 K/Akt/mTOR Signaling in Protective Effects of Moxibustion for Premature Ovarian Failure in Rats].

Objective: To study the protective effect of moxibustion for tripterygium-induced premature ovarian failure (POF) and its underlying mechanisms in rats.

Methods: Forty-five female SD rats were randomly divided into normal control, POF model and moxibustion groups (＝15/group). The POF model was induced by intragastric administration of Triptolide (40 mg/kg), once daily for 6 weeks.

[Early effectiveness of total hip arthroplasty in treating protrusion acetabuli].

Objective: To evaluate the method and the early effectiveness of total hip arthroplasty in the treatment of protrusion acetabuli.

Methods: Between January 2006 and February 2010, 16 cases (16 hips) of protrusion acetabuli were treated, including 6 males and 10 females with an average age of 56.5 years (range, 39-72 years).

[Effectiveness of traumatic dislocation of knee joint combined with multiple ligament injuries treated by stages].

Objective: To observe the effectiveness of traumatic dislocation of the knee joint combined with multiple ligament injuries treated by stages.

Methods: Between june 2005 and November 2008, 13 cases of traumatic dislocation of the knee joint combined with multiple ligament injuries were treated by stages, including 9 males and 4 females with an average age of 30.7 years (range, 18-54 years).

[Treatment of Schatzker V/VI tibial plateau fracture involved posteromedial condyle through combined approach].

Objective: To observe the clinical results of treatment of Schatzker V/VI tibial plateau fracture involved posteromedial condyle through combined posteromedial and anterolateral approach and fixed with two or three plates.

Methods: From April 2005 to April 2008, 18 cases of tibial plateau fracture involved posteromedial condyle were treated, including 14 males and 4 females with an average age of 38.5 years old (range, 18-62 years old).

[Effects of autologous periosteum wrapping allogenic tendon graft on tendon-bone healing inside a bone tunnel in rabbits].

Objective: To explore the situation of tendon-bone healing when allogenic tendon graft is wrapped with autologous periosteum around the tendon in rabbits.

Methods: Twenty healthy New Zealand white rabbits with the age of 4-5 months were used in the experiment, weighing 2.5-3.

[The efficacy of biological dressing containing calcium and magnesium on the management of hydrofluoric acid burns].

Objective: To observe the efficacy of biological dressing containing calcium and magnesia (sheep dermis absorbing calcium and magnesia and cross-link with glutaraldehyde) on the management of hydrofluoric acid burns in rats and patients.

Methods: Wistar rats were randomly divided into A ( n = 24, normal control, with isotonic saline dressing after burns), B ( n = 32, with isotonic saline dressing treatment after hydrofluoric acid burns), C ( n = 32, with wet-dressing treatment after hydrofluoric acid burns), and D ( n = 32, with biological dressing treatment after hydrofluoric acid burns) groups. The rats in the latter 3 groups were inflicted with 3 cm x 3 cm TBSA full-thickness burns, and mortality, concentration of blood calcium , histopathological observation were carried out at 4,8,24 and 72 postburn hours (PBH), with 8 rats at each time-points.

[Advance of lower cervical spine pedicle screw fixation in treatment of lower cervical spine instability].

Objective: To review the anatomic character of lower cervical pedicle, the placement and the biomechanical stability of the cervical pedicle screw fixation, the clinical application and the complication caused by fixation.

Methods: The literature concerned the cervical pedicle screw fixation in recent years were extensively reviewed.

Results: The cervical pedicle screw fixation can be widely used in the lower cervical spine instability according to the anatomic character of lower cervical pedicle, and the good biomechanical stability of the cervical pedicle screw fixation, and the complication can be controlled.

[Clinical application of interbody cage systems in the lumbar spine].

Objective: To study the clinical value of interbody cage systems in the surgical treatment of unstable lumbar segment, and evaluate the biomechanical properties.

Methods: Ninety-seven cases were selected for operation by posterior lumbar interbody fusion with the BAK-cage or TFC device. Of the patients, 18 were diagnosed as lumbar disc degeneration disease (DDD), 37 as lumbar stenosis, 23 as spondylolisthesis, and 19 as unstable traumatic lesion.
