The gender, age, fracture location, time from injury to operation, operation time, blood transfusion rate, thrombus side, D-dimer level before and after operation, and internal medical diseases were compared between the two groups. The risk factors with statistical significance were screened for multivariate Logistic regression analysis. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000In proximal thrombosis group, 70% (39/56) had hip fracture and 18% (10/56) had femoral shaft fracture, while 43% (39/91) had hip fracture and 4% (4/91) had femoral shaft fracture in distal thrombosis group (P 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that hip fracture and femoral shaft fracture, left lower limb, blood transfusion, high D-dimer level before and after operation were risk factors for proximal thrombosis. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusions \u0000Proximal venous thrombosis is often combined with distal venous thrombosis. Hip fracture, femoral shaft fracture, left lower limb, blood transfusion, preoperative and postoperative high D-dimer levels have significant effects on proximal thrombosis. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Venous thrombosis; Fractures, bone; Risk factors","PeriodicalId":10161,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Trauma","volume":"35 1","pages":"625-630"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44439119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The loading efficiency and release curve of BDNF on PLGA/GO nanofibers were measured by ELISA. NSCs were implanted on the surface of PLGA/GO and PLGA/GO/BDNF nanofibers. The absorbance values of each group were measured by MTT method, and the expression of Tuj-1 was observed by immunofluorescence and PCR. A total of 30 female SD rats were divided into control group (n=10), PLGA/GO group (n=10) and PLGA/GO/BDNF group (n=10) according to random number table. T9 spinal cord tissue was cut by Venus scissors to establish spinal cord hemisection injury model of rats. PLGA/GO and PLGA/GO/BDNF nanofibers were implanted onto the surface of injury site. BBB score was used to assess the motion functional recovery of the rats at 1, 7, 14 and 28 days after operation. Immunofluorescence staining of neuron specific nucleoprotein (NeuN) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were performed to observe the expressions of neurons and astrocytes at the injured site respectively one month after injury. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000The PLGA/GO nanofibers showed an irregular smooth fiber-like structure, and the average fiber diameter was (987.5±176.3)nm. NSCs could differentiate into neurons on the nanofibers. The result of ELISA showed loading rate of BDNF on PLGA/GO nanofibers was about 47.5%. The release curve showed that BDNF was first released about 30% on the first day and then about 60% on the 21st day. The results of MTT and PCR showed that optical density value and Tuj-1 gene expression in the PLGA/GO/BDNF group were significantly higher than those in the PLGA/GO group (P<0.05). The animal experiment results showed that the BBB score of PLGA/GO/BDNF group was (15.3±0.7)points at 28 days after injury, which was significantly higher than that of the injury control group [(11.8±0.8)points] and that of PLGA/GO group [(12.7±0.8)points] (P<0.05). Immunofluorescence results showed that the expression of NeuN in PLGA/GO/BDNF group was 13.7±2.2, significantly higher than that in injury control group (4.3±2.9)(P<0.05), and the expression of GFAP in PLGA/GO group was (25.6±4.3)% significantly lower than that in injury control group [(38.5±6.2)%] and PLGA/GO group [(36.7±7.3)%](P<0.05). \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000PLGA/GO nanofibers combined with BDNF can effectively promote the proliferation and neuron differentiation of NSCs in vitro and repair spinal cord injury in vivo through orthotopic transplantation at the injury site. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Spinal cord injuries; Neural stem cells; Brain-derived neurotrophic factor; Polylactic-co-glycolic acid/graphene oxide","PeriodicalId":10161,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Trauma","volume":"35 1","pages":"597-604"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45153935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
