Objective To investigate the effects of KLT on apoptosis of HepG2 cells and expression of Bcl-2 and Capase-8. Methods The cell fine HepG2 was induced by diverse density of KLT, and HepG2 cell was collected respectively after induction of 12 h, 24 h, 48 h. The control group was installed simulta-neon]y. The cell apoptosis and the expression of Bcl-2 and Caspase-8 were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). Results KLT can induce the apoptosis of HepG2 cell significantly, and the longer time past, the more apoptosis of HepG2 was. KLT can increase the expression of Caspase-8, but ineffective to Bcl-2. Con-clusion KLT can significantly induce the apoptosis of HepG2 cell through regulating the expression of Caspase-8.

Objective To study the influence of pre-injection of donor apoptotic cells in the survival of islet grafts and the function of T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. Methods The donor apoptotic cells and necrotic cells were ob-tained respectively by X-irradiation from electron linear accelerator and a heat-shock procedure (water bath box 56℃, 1 h). The diabetic rats for islet transplantation (n=42) were induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ), then were randomly divided into four groups:rats were injected by physiological saline group (n=9), normal cells group (n=12), apoptotic donor cell group (n=12) and necrotic donor cell group (n=9). On the seventh day, each group received islet transplantation under the renal capsule. The blood glucose level was detected to reflect the survival of the islets. The periph-eral blood samples of three rats in each group were obtained at different observation times. The proliferative activity of T lym-phocytes was determined by MTT method. The levels of cytokines interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-10 in peripheral blood were measured by Luminex 100 Integrated System, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 by ELISA respectively at 0 d, 1 week, 2 weeks and after rejection. Results The survival time of islets was significantly prolonged by the pre-intervention of apoptotic cells, and the proliferative activity of T lymphocytes stimulated by ConA was inhibited. Meanwhile, the extent of the increased level of IFN-γwas inhibited significantly at 1 week and 2 weeks after transplantation (P<0.05), the levels of IL-10 and TGF-β1 were significantly increased before transplantation, 1 week and 2 weeks after transplantation (P<0.05). Conclusion Our results demonstrated that the pre-treatment of donor apoptotic cells can regulate the recipient’s immune reactive state by inhibiting the proliferative activity of T lymphocytes and changing the levels of cytokines from different sub-sets of T lymphocytes, and finally resulted in the prolonging of the survival of islet grafts.

Objective To investigate the effects of environmental hypothermia on hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism in unanesthetized swine model of hemorrhagic shock.Methods A total of 16 Bama pigs provided by animal experiment centre of the General Hospital of Shenyang Military Command were randomized into two groups ( n =8,each):ambient temperature (A) and hypothermia ( H ).Venous blood (30 mL/kg) was continously withdrawn over 15 minutes to establish hemorrhagic shock model.Core temperature,heart rate,mean arterial pressure,central venous pressure,cardiac output,saturation of mixed venous blood and blood gas analysis were recorded at the baseline and different hemorrhagic shock time.DO2I and VO2I,and the O2 extraction ratio (O2ER) were calculated.Results Core body temperature in group A decreased slightly after hemorrhagic shock model had established and environmental hypothermia resulted in more reduction in core body temperature.The mortality rate was significantly higher in group H (50％) than in group A (0％) (P ＜0.05).DO2I and VO2I decreased significantly after hemorrhage.No difference was found in hemodynamics,DO2I and VO2I between group A and group H,but the difference of pH,lactic acid and O2ER were significant between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).conclusions Environmental hypothermia aggravated the disorder of oxygen metabolism after hemorrhagic shock,which was associated with poor prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of carotid artery stenting (CAS) in the treatment of non-circumferential severe calcification using the distal embolic protection device.Methods:Clinical data of patients with severe calcification lesions in cervical carotid artery treated by CAS from Jan 2018 to Dec 2020 at our center was analyzed retrospectively.Results:226 consecutively admitted patients of cervical carotid artery stenosis and non-circumferential severe calcification (CR>270°) underwent CAS using the distal embolic protection device. The technical success rate was 90.26%. No death or myocardial infarction occurred during the perioperative period. Two patients had ipsilateral hemiparesis ischemic stroke during post-dilatation. The incidence of perioperative bradycardia/hypotension was 25.34%. Patients were followed up for 6-36 months, with median follow-up period of 17.3 months. The incidence of mild or moderate in-stent restenosis (<70%) was 16.59%, and the incidence of severe in-stent restenosis or occlusion (>70%) was 3.22%.Conclusions:For carotid artery stenosis with non-circumferential severe calcification in high risk for CEA patients, carotid artery stenting is safe and effective with the aggressive pre-dilation strategies, strict stent selections and implantation standards. The incidence of perioperative death, myocardial infarction or ipsilateral hemiparesis ischemic stroke was low. The patency rate of the carotid stent in the calcification lesion is satisfactory during the mid-term follow-up.

Interventional embolization therapy is widely used for procedures such as targeted tumour therapy, anti-organ hyperactivity and haemostasis. During embolic agent injection, doctors need to work under X-ray irradiation environment. Moreover, embolic agent injection is largely dependent on doctors' experience and feelings, and over-injection of embolic agent can lead to reflux, causing ectopic embolism and serious complications. As an effective way to reduce radiation exposure and improve the success rate of interventional embolization therapy, embolic agent injection robot is highly anticipated, but how to decide the injection flow velocity of embolic agent is a problem that remains to be solved. On the basis of fluid dynamics simulation and experiment, we established an arterial pressure-injection flow velocity boundary curve model that can avoid reflux, which provides a design basis for the control of embolic agent injection system. An in vitro experimental platform for injection system was built and validation experiments were conducted. The results showed that the embolic agent injection flow speed curve designed under the guidance of the critical flow speed curve model of reflux could effectively avoid the embolic agent reflux and shorten the embolic agent injection time. Exceeding the flow speed limit of the model would lead to the risk of embolization of normal blood vessels. This paper confirms the validity of designing the embolic agent injection flow speed based on the critical flow speed curve model of reflux, which can achieve rapid injection of embolic agent while avoiding reflux, and provide a basis for the design of the embolic agent injection robot.

Multi-modal brain-computer interface and multi-modal brain function imaging are developing trends for the present and future. Aiming at multi-modal brain-computer interface based on electroencephalogram-near infrared spectroscopy (EEG-NIRS) and in order to simultaneously acquire the brain activity of motor area, an acquisition helmet by NIRS combined with EEG was designed and verified by the experiment. According to the 10-20 system or 10-20 extended system, the diameter and spacing of NIRS probe and EEG electrode, NIRS probes were aligned with C3 and C4 as the reference electrodes, and NIRS probes were placed in the middle position between EEG electrodes to simultaneously measure variations of NIRS and the corresponding variation of EEG in the same functional brain area. The clamp holder and near infrared probe were coupled by tightening a screw. To verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the multi-modal EEG-NIRS helmet, NIRS and EEG signals were collected from six healthy subjects during six mental tasks involving the right hand clenching force and speed motor imagery. These signals may reflect brain activity related to hand clenching force and speed motor imagery in a certain extent. The experiment showed that the EEG-NIRS helmet designed in the paper was feasible and effective. It not only could provide support for the multi-modal motor imagery brain-computer interface based on EEG-NIRS, but also was expected to provide support for multi-modal brain functional imaging based on EEG-NIRS.
