In this paper, the biological compatibilities of FGF/Collagen compound sponges are evaluated. Intracutaneous stimulation test and shortterm muscle embedding test of FGF/Collagen compound sponges made of different materials are performed. Experimental data are analyzed and evaluated according to the standard. The two sponges get marks of 0 in acute eye stimulation test and intracutaneous stimulation test, thus they are not stimulating to tissues. In shortterm muscle embedding test, they don't lead to inflammation reactions and can be degraded and absorbed in short term. FGF/Collagen compound sponge proves good biological compatibility and has a cheerful prospect in medicine.

Objective:To discuss the feasibility and clinical efficacy of laparoscopic ureteroplasty with buccal mucosa graft for ureteral stricture.Methods:The clinical data of 10 patients with ureteral stricture admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from July 2018 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, including 7 males, 3 females, 5 cases on each side, with an average age of (47.9±7.8)years. All patients had a history of operation related to ureteral calculi. The median value of preoperative serum creatinine was 71(68~610)μmol/L. The status of hydronephrosis and ureteral stricture was evaluated by ultrasonography, CTU and ureteral retrograde angiography.The separation of the renal pelvis on the affected side was (3.1±0.7)cm.There were 7 cases of upper segment stenosis, 2 cases of middle segment stenosis, and 1 case of multiple stenosis. The length of ureteral stenosis was (3.2±0.7)cm. Laparoscopic buccal mucosa ureteroplasty was performed in all 10 cases under general anesthesia. After the stricture ureter segment was separated during the operation, the ureteral stenosis segment was longitudinally cut. According to the stenosis, the buccal mucosa with a length of 3.0-4.5 cm and a width of 1.0-1.5 cm was cut. Buccal mucosa grafts were harvested and placed in the ureter as an anterior onlay with omental wrapping.Results:Ureteral repair was performed laparoscopically in all cases, with no conversion to open and no serious complications. The operative time was (199.2±27.4)min, the blood loss was (101.5±54.7)ml, the median postoperative indwelling time of the drainage tube was 4.5(3.0-7.0)d, and the postoperative hospital stay was (7.9±1.9)days. The patients had clear pronunciation and barrier-free eating one week after the operation.The double J tube was removed one to two months after surgery. The patients were followed up for (11.3±4.2)months after the operation. Follow-up patients underwent imaging and other examinations, which showed significant improvement in hydronephrosis on the affected side, and the median value of renal pelvis separation on the affected side was 1.8(0-2.2)cm. The median value of serum creatinine was 82(66~235)μmol/L. The serum creatinine in 2 patients with renal insufficiency decreased significantly after operation.Conclusions:Laparoscopic buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty could be a safe and feasible option for the treatment of ureteral stricture with less trauma and rapid recovery. The results of the initial experience are encouraging.

[Abstract ] Objective The pathogenesis underlying cognitive dysfunction has yet to be fully elucidated.The article was to investigate the effects of memantine on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced spatial learning and memory impairment in C57BL/6J mice. Methods 36 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 3 groups:control group (C group), lipopolysaccharide group (L group) and memantine group (M group) (n=12).Mice in C, L and M groups were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of saline, LPS and LPS plus memantine re-spectively for 7 consecutive days.On the 8th day, mice were tested in the Morris water maze, in which the latency to the platform and the propor-tion of time spent in the target quadrant were recorded .Then the mice were sacrificed and the hippocampi were harvested for the determination of expression levels of Amyloid-β(Aβ), glycogen synthase kinase-3β(GSK-3β) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Results Com-pared with C group, L group significantly prolongated the latency to the platform (71.01 ±13.21 vs 50.56 ±9.89, P<0.05), decreased the propor-tion of time spent in the target quadrant (42.58 ±7.85 vs 63.74 ±12.43, P<0.05) and increased the levels of hippocampal Aβand GSK-3β(1.75 ±0.43 vs 1.27 ±0.23, 184.0 ±18.6 vs 100.0 ±12.1, P<0.05), (75.0 ±13.5 vs 100.0 ±10.3, P<0.05), while mTOR levels decreased significantly (97.0 ±14.3 vs 75.0 ±13.5, P<0.05).Compared with L group, M group significantly prolongated the latency to the platform (61.45 ±7.65 vs 71.01 ±13.21, P<0.05), decreased the proportion of time spent in the target quadrant shortened (58.25 ±9.02 vs 42.58 ±7.85, P<0.05) and increased the expression of hippocampal Aβ(1.35 ±0.28 vs 1.75 ±0.43,92.4 ±10.8 vs 184.0 ±18.6, P <0.05). Conclusion Memantine contributes to the improvement of LPS-induced spatial learning and memory impairment, which is probably related to the changes of the expression of GSK-3βand mTOR in hippocampus.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic combined simultaneous surgery in the modified prone split-leg position for complex renal calculi with ipsilateral ureteral calculi. Methods: The clinical data of 56 cases patients with simultaneous renal and ureteral stones admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2016 to March 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. A retrospective analysis was performed on 56 cases of patients with simultaneous renal and ureteral stones who received surgical treatment between January 2016 and March 2019. According to different surgical methods, 56 cases were divided into the modified prone split-leg position group (observation group) and the traditional pre-lithotomy position followed by prone position group (control group). In observation group, the average age of 11 males and 17 females was (54.1±10.2)years. The mean body mass index was (23.8±2.9) kg/m². The location of stones were left in 14 cases and right in 14 cases. The average kidney involvement calyces number was 2.4±0.7.The mean kidney stones maximum cross-sectional area was (870.9±157.7)m². According to the Guy′s classification system, there were 3 cases of grade Ⅰ, 11 case of grade Ⅱ and 14 case of grade Ⅲ in the observation group. The kidney stones S. T.O.N.E scores was 8.7±1.3 and ureteral calculi S. T.O.N.E scores were 13.1± 1.6.In the control group, the average age was (57.0±8.3)years old. The mean body mass index was (24.4±2.9)kg/m². The average kidney involvement calyces number was 2.1±0.7 and the mean kidney stones maximum cross-sectional area was (808.8±189.6)mm². To the kidney stones Guy′s classification, there were 5 cases of grade Ⅰ, 15 case of grade Ⅱ, 7 case of grade Ⅲ and 1case of grade Ⅳ in the control group. The kidney stones S. T.O.N.E scores were 8.5±0.6 and the ureteral calculi S. T.O.N.E scores were 12.4±1.7. The operation time, calculus clearance rate, postoperative hospitalization days, reoperation rate and severity of complications of Clavien-Dindo were statistically compared between the two groups. Results: The study found that the average operation time in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group [(77.8±27.3)min vs.(94.4±22.8)min](P<0.05). In the observation group, 23 patients had complete removal of renal and ureteral calculi, and 3 patients need reoperation. While in the control group, 16 patients had complete removal and 10 patients had reoperation. There were significant differences between the two groups (P<0.05). According to the complication severity of Clavien-Dindo, there were 4 cases of grade Ⅰ and 1 case of grade Ⅱ in the observation group, 4 cases of grade Ⅰ, 2 case of grade Ⅱ and 2 case of grade Ⅲ in the control group. There were no serious complications of grade Ⅳ and Ⅴ in both groups (P>0.05). In observation group, one case accepted the DSA embolization therapy due to the severe bleeding. One case accepted the puncture drainage due to the perinephric effusion. There was no difference in average postoperative hospital stay between the two groups [(6.5±1.2)d vs.(7.0±2.1)d, P>0.05]. Conclusions It is safe and feasible to treat complex renal calculi with ipsilateral ureteral calculi by endoscopic combined simultaneous surgery in the modified prone split-leg position. One position can solve many problems simultaneously, which can significantly reduce the operation time, increase the stone free rates, reduce the reoperation rate and improve the effectiveness of the operation.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of ultrasound combined with endoscopy and ultrasound combined with X-ray guided percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PCNL) in the treatment of complex renal calculi.Methods:The clinical data of 119 patients with complex kidney stones treated by ultrasound combined with endoscopy or ultrasound combined with X-ray guided PCNL in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from March 2019 to February 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. According to different guidance methods, they were divided into ultrasound combined with endoscopic guidance group and ultrasound combined with X-ray guidance group.There was no significant difference in age [(53.9±14.2) years vs. (55.6±13.5) years], gender (male/female: 38/21 vs. 30/30), body mass index [(25.0±3.7) kg/m 2 vs. (24.8±3.8)kg/m 2], stone location (left/right: 34/25 vs. 31/29), maximum diameter of renal stones [(31.9±8.3)mm vs. (33.9±13.5)mm], kidney stones maximum cross-sectional area [(601.5±242.5)mm 2 vs. (632.6±278.9)mm 2], number of renal calices involved (3.5±0.9 vs. 3.6±1.3), S. T.O.N.E. scores (9.4±1.0 vs. 9.7±1.4), Guy's grade(Ⅲ/Ⅳ: 45/14 vs. 41/19), preoperative hemoglobin [(125.2±21.5)g/L vs. (125.6±18.4)g/L], serum creatinine[(89.1±33.8) μmol/L vs. (81.9±27.1) μmol/L], urinary tract infection (43/59 vs. 47/60)and positive urinary bacterial culture (12/59 vs.11/60) between the two groups(all P>0.05). The patients in the ultrasound combined with endoscopic guidance group were placed in the modified prone split-leg position. Flexible ureteroscope retrograde into the renal pelvis, combined with ultrasound to determine the best puncture calices. The channels were established and stones were removed under the guidance of ultrasound and endoscopy. In the ultrasound combined with X-ray guidance group, the F5 ureteral catheter was placed retrogradely into the operative side ureter under the lithotomy position. Then the patient changed to prone position and the target calices were punctured under the guidance of ultrasound and X-ray. Through anterograde or retrograde injection of contrast medium, the puncture position was determined to enter in the center of the calicean dome, and the channel establishment process and stone removal are monitored. The operative results and postoperative data were recorded. Results:The average operation time in the ultrasound combined with endoscopic guidance group was significantly shorter than that in the ultrasound combined with X-ray guidance group [(90.2 ± 34.5) min vs. (129.4 ± 43.0) min, P < 0.001]. There was no significant difference in the success rates of initial channel establishment [94.0% (63/67) vs. 87.7% (107/122), P = 0.167], the time of single channel establishment [(7.7 ± 1.9) min vs. (7.7 ± 1.4) min, P =0.765], serum creatinine on the first day after operation[ (89.3±33.6) μmol/L vs. (82.9±27.0) μmol/L, P=0.257] and postoperative hospital stay[(5.3±1.6) d vs.(5.4±1.7) d, P=0.883]. In contrast, patients in ultrasound combined with X-ray guidance group had higher stone free rate [93.3% (56/60) vs. 81.4% (48/59), P=0.049] and lower reoperation rate [3.3% (2/60) vs. 15.3% (9/59), P=0.025]. The mean hemoglobin decrease value of ultrasound combined with endoscopic guidance group was significantly lower than ultrasound combined with X-ray guidance group on the first day after operation [(8.7±6.3) g/L vs. (16.8±6.9) g/L, P<0.001]. The complication rate of ultrasound combined with endoscopic guidance group was significantly lower than that of ultrasound combined with X-ray guidance group [5.1% (3/59) vs. 16.7% (10/60), P = 0.043]. Conclusions:Ultrasound combined with endoscopic guidance PCNL does not need to change body position during operation and has fewer puncture channels, thus saving operation time and reducing complications. It is more suitable for patients with isolated kidney or easy bleeding. Ultrasound combined with X-ray guidance is conducive to the establishment of multi-channel, the stone clearance rate is high and the reoperation rate is low, which is suitable for patients with good health and more renal calices involved with stones.
