[Objective]To study the effect of repairing of rat peripheral nerve defect with engineering artificial nerve composed with Schwann cells and poly lactic glycoli aced(PLGA).[Method]Human Schwann cells were vaccinated into PLGA tube with polyglactin 910.Sixty SD rats were divided into 3 groups randomly with 20 rats in each one: group A,self-nerve graft;group B,Schwann cells artificial nerve;group C,pure PLGA.Evaluations of electrophysiological and histological examines were carried out 8 weeks ad 12 weeks after operation.[Result]The outcome of group B showed similar to group A in general and histological study,however it expressed slightly lower in electrophysiological study,muscle weight and nerve fiber quantity.Marked neuron could be found in spinal cord after group B had been traced.Large number of regeneration nerve fibers could be seen from electron microscope.[Conclusion]The tissue engineering artificial nerve composed with Schwann cells is able to repair 20 mm defects of peripheral nerve,and it has an approximate treatment effect to the self-nerve grafting.

[Objective]To explore the indications and operative techniques for comminuted fracture of proximal humerus. [Method] Twelve patients with fracture of proximal humerus were chosen, observation was made after locking proximal humerus plate fixation with anterior acromioplasty. [Result]The average follow-up period were 12 months (6～24months). All patients' fracture in surgery group had been union and all shoulder had good functions. No incidence of avascular necrosis and nonunion was found. [Conclusion]Rigid fixation of displaced comminuted fractures of proximal humerus with anterior acromioplasty is a simple and effective technique to prevent subacromial impingement syndrome after surgery. Precise osteotomy and early postoperative exercises are the key to success.

To investigate the effects of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on intracellular free Ca 2+ of heating injury, and observe the relationship between mitogen activated protein kinases(MAPKs)signal pathways and Ca 2+ mobilization. Cultured human fibroblasts were heated at 45?C for 10min, then divided into four groups :①basic fibroblast growth factor (10ng/ml) treatment; ②preincubated cells with PD98059 (10?mol/L) for 30 min followed by bFGF (10ng/ml); ③preincubated cells with SB203580 (10?mol/L) for 30min followed by bFGF (10ng/ml); ④preincubated cells with PD98059 (10?mol/L) and SB203580 (10?mol/L) for 30min followed by bFGF (10ng/ml). The cells were incubated with fluorescence Ca 2+ dye fluo 3/AM at 37 C for 30min, then measured by using laser scanning confocal microscope. The results showed fluorescent intensity of fibroblast heating injury was weak, the concentration of intracellular free Ca 2+ increased after stimulation with bFGF treatment. PD98059 and SB203580 could induce calcium oscillation. A rapid decrease of fluorescent intensity was observed after cells were preincubated with PD98059 and SB203580 at the same time. bFGF induced an increase of cytoplasmic and intracellular free Ca 2+ concentrations. It is suggested that MAPKs signaling pathway has a feedback regulation for free Ca 2+ mobilization.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic and therapeutic methods of small intestinal hemorrhage.Method Clinical data of forty-nine cases of small intestinal hemorrhage were analyzed retrospectively.Results Small intestinal tumors were found in 21 cases (42.9%),among wtich,most were benign;infectious diseases in 12(24.5%);diverticula's in 8(16.3%);and vascular malformations in 6(12.2%).Radionuclide scanning was positive in 10 out of 13 cases (76.9%).Angiography was performed in 12,7 of them were abnormal (58.3%).Small bowel series made diagnosis in 25% of 36 cases.Postoperative bleeding was found in 5 cases and short bowel syndrome in 1 case.Conclusions Tumors are the most common cause of small bowel bleeding,and acute hemorrhagic nercotizing enteritis and typhoid often cause small bowel massive bleeding.Radionuclide scanning is one of the most useful diagnostic methods for diverticula's.Angiography is a valuable procedure in diagnosis of vascular lesions and malignants.Small bowel series is also helpful in diagnosis of solid lesions and diverticula's. Exploratory surgery coupled with intraoperative endoscopy can be helpful in diagnosis of small bowel bleeding.

The basic concept of gene therapy is to introduce a therapeutic gene into a cell, whose expression can improve to healing of wound. To achieve this goal, the suitable therapeutic gene has been selected and delivered into the reparative cell, which is becoming a focal point works about gene therapy in wound healing. There have been several different therapeutic genes and gene transfer strategies that have been used in models of wound healing. This article discusses several methods that have been used to deliver genes encoding growth factor proteins, stem cells into wounds and the advantages/disadvantages of each approach. We hope a safe vectors system to deliver the effectual transgene in wound healing.

Objective To explore the effect of drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation for early non-culprit vessel's revascularization on the prognosis of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients presenting with multivessel disease (MVD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods A total of 212 selected patients, admitted in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from Jan. 1, 2016 to Jul. 30, 2018, diagnosed as STEMI with MVD undergoing emergency PCI treatment, were recruited in present single-center retrospective study. According to the treatment strategy, all the subjects were then divided into control group (n=153) and experimental group (n=59). Patients in control group received culprit vessel emergency PCI only, and those in experimental group underwent early non-culprit vessel's DES revascularization (Within 14 days of hospitalization) after culprit vessel's PCI. The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE, a composite endpoint of cardiac death, recurrent myocardial infarction, ischemia-driven revascularization and heart failure) and safety end point events within 12 months after PCI were compared between the two groups. The influencing factors for MACE were analyzed by logistic regression. Results The incidence of MACE was significantly lower in treatment group than that in control group 12 months after PCI (5.1% vs. 22.2%, P=0.006). No significant statistical difference existed between the two groups in all-cause mortality (0% vs. 5.1%), malignant angina pectoris (1.7% vs. 7.8%), contrast nephropathy (3.4% vs. 2.6%), gastrointestinal bleeding (0% vs. 5.1%), and stroke (3.4% vs. 0.7%). Logistic regression showed that the control group (only received culprit vessel PCI) and prolonged operation time were the risk factors for MACE. Conclusion Early revascularization of non-culprit vessel is safer than only culprit vessel PCI, can reduce the incidence of MACE, improves the prognosis, and reduces hospitalization rates within the 12 months after PCI in acute STEMI patients with MVD.

Methods The silica gel and ODS column chromatographies were used for the isolation and purification of compounds from Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus. Their structures were identified through comparing with references and spectral analyses. Results: Three steroidal saponins were isolated from the 70% ethanol extract from Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus and identified as 5β-spirostane-25(27)-en-3β, 12β-diol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl- (1→2)-β-D-galactopyranoside (1), (25R)-5β-spirostane-3β, 12β-diol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl- (1→2)-β-D-galactopyranoside (2), and 5β-spirostane-25(27)-en-2β, 3β-diol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl- (1→2)-β-D-galactopyranoside (3). Conclusion: Compound 1 is a new compound named macrostemonoside S. Compound 2 is isolated from Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus for the first time.

To explore the activities of signal transduction pathway involved in heat-stressed fibroblast in vitro. Human dermal fibroblasts were cultured in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle′s medium with 5% calf serum at 5%CO 2 in a water-saturated atmosphere. Cultured cells were heated to 45℃ for 10min. Western blotting was used to detect ERK1/2 and JNK expression, and the expression of caspase-3 protein was observed by immunoflurescence technique. The results showed that the MAPKs signal transduction pathway was activated in heat-stressed fibroblasts. The expression of JNK reached the peak at 60min, then maintained up to 180min. The expression of ERKs peaked at 30min, then lowered. The expression of caspase-3 was weak at 30min after heat-stress, and became evidently strong at 60min. The signal pathway of ERKs and JNK played important roles in the changes in biologic characteristics of fibroblasts after heat-stress.
