[Changes of platelet rheological behavior and the interventional effects of ulinastatin in rats with high-voltage electrical burns].

To explore the influence of high-voltage electrical burns on the number of platelet aggregation, β-thromboglobulin (β-TG) and platelet factor 4 (PF-4) and the interventional effects of ulinastatin in rats with high-voltage electrical burns. A total of 240 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham injury (SI) group, simple electrical burn (SEB) group, normal saline (NS) group, and ulinastatin (U...

Percutaneous kyphoplasty versus posterior spinal fixation with vertebroplasty for treatment of Kümmell disease: A case-control study with minimal 2-year follow-up.

This is a retrospective case-control study.The aim of this study was to compare the surgical results of percutaneous kyphoplasty (KP) and posterior spinal fixation with vertebroplasty (PSF+VP) for treatment of Kümmell disease (KD).KD is rare form of post-traumatic delayed avascular necrosis of the vertebral body. It is reported that KP is an effect measure for treatment of KD. Some studies have re...
