International Journal of Surgery 2014;41(9):588-591,649
Objective To compare the operation effect of endoscopic versus open component separation on abdominal wall reconstruction.Methods From January 2012 to December 2013,19 patients (ECST 8 and CST 11) with abdominal wall defects were repaired with biomaterials mesh.This study analyzed retrospectively the clinical information between two groups.Results No hernia recurrences were occurred during a mean follow-up of (14.96± 8.89) months.There was no significant difference in EBL,operation time,length of stay.The rate of recurrence wound complications in CST group is higher than the ECST group,but is not significant difference.Conclusions Endoscopic or open component separation with biomaterials mesh could effectively repair the abdominal wall defect and ECST definitely showed the advantage in reducing the incisional complication.But the large sample,long-term clinical follow-up should be confirmed.
2.Application of control-release preparations of growth factor in treating neurodegeneration diseases
International Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2006;0(05):-
Incorporation of growth factors in polymeric drug delivery systems serves to maintain its bioactivity and long-term sustained release. With the development of controlled release techniques from simple mixing growth factors with carrier materials to controlled release microspheres, this kind of delivery formulations gain their extensive application. The present review focused on the application of biodegradable delivery systems of growth factors in treating neurodegeneration diseases.
3.Strategies for functional repair of complex abdominal wall defects
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2015;14(10):813-815
It is still a challenge for surgeons to deal with the complex abdominal wall defect.The purpose of surgical treatment is not only to restore the integrity of the abdominal wall, but also to maintain the function of the abdominal wall.Accurate classification and partition of the abdominal wall defects before operation are the base of surgical procedure for complex abdominal wall defects.Reinforcement of the abdominal wall defects with mesh, component separation technique and tissue flap technique are important methods to achieve functional repair of the abdominal wall defects.
4.Effect of rosuvastatin on the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 of renal tissue in patients with the early-stage diabetic nephropathy
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2011;34(28):10-13
Objective To observe the effect of rosuvastatin on the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) of renal tissue in patients with the early-stage diabetic nephropathy.Methods Sixty patients with early-stage diabetic nephropathy were divided into two groups by random digits table:rosuvastatin group and regular group.The patients were given 10 mg/d rosuvastatin besides the conventional treatment in rosuvastatin group.The levels of blood glucose,blood fat,renal function,high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),urine albumin excretion rate(UAER) and the expression of VCAM-1 were observed.Results Compared with those before treatment,the levels of total cholesterol (TC),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),trtglyeride (TG) showed no decrease after treatment [(5.83 ± 1.02),(3.48 ±0.60),(7.12 ±0.99) mmol/L] in regular group (P >0.05),but significantly decreased in rosuvastatin group [ (4.51 ± 0.95 ),( 3.18 ± 0.47),(7.02 ± 0.87 ) mmol/L ] (P < 0.01 ).The levels of UAER and hs-CRP were significantly decreased in regular group and rosuvastatin group after treatment [ (78.3 ±31.7),(53.8 ± 24.9) μ g/min,and (2.15 ± 0.48),( 1.59 ± 0.55) mg/L] (P< 0.01 ),then rosuvastatin groupwas more conspicuous than regular group (P < 0.05 ).The expression of VCAM-1 was less in rosuvastatin group than that in regular group.Conclusion Rosuvastatin can down-regulate the expression of VCAM-1 of kidney tissues in patients with the early-stage diabetic nephropathy and these indicate that rosuvastatin can reduce urine protein by inhibiting the inflammatory process.

Streptomycetes are Gram-positive bacteria of Actinomycetales. These organisms can produce many economically important secondary metabolites. With the development of molecular biology, gene sequencing technology and synthetic biology, people gained a better understanding of the Streptomyces family. The means to transform genome on the molecular level is also increasing. By simplifying the Streptomyces genome rationally and efficiently, it will improve the yield and quality of the metabolites as well as reduce the consumption of the substrates. Markerless knockout is an important way to carry out genetic modification. Here we describe novel genome modification techniques developed for Streptomyces in recent years with focus on the markerless knockout technologies.

Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for the generation and development of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. The lipid-lowering effects of drugs were mediated by the control of lipid metabolism.Recently some new targets in the process of lipid metabolism were found,they may lead to the development of new drugs.

Objective To evaluate the effect on the corneal endothelial cell after phacoemulsification using the microburst mode with high vacuum. Design Prospective,observational case series. Participants 98 age-related cataract patients (120 eyes). Metheds All patients having phacoemulsification with the Alcon Legacy 20000 Everest software were assigned to 1 of 3 groups (the burst mode group,the pulse mode group and the continuous mode group). Main Outcome Measures Actual power,effect phaco time,visual acuity,corneal edema,and corneal endothelial cell loss. Results The mean actual power of the burst group was statistically lower than those of the other two groups,the effect phaco time of the burst group was statistically shorter than those of the other two groups. The corneal edema and the endothelial cell loss of the burst group were less than those of the other two groups. Conclusion The microburst mode with high vacuum increased efficiency of ultrasound power and decreased the loss of endothelial cell. (Ophthalmol CHN,2006,15: 201-205)

Objective: To evaluate the effect, tolerance and safety of low-dose oral amiodarone in the prevention of AF after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods: Between 1998 and 1999, 235 adult patients underwent CABG. They were given 0 6 g of amiodarone (80 patients) or placebo (155 patients) daily for 7 days before surgery and 0 2g of amiodarone or placebo daily for 30 days postoperatively. Results: The incidence of postoperative AF was significantly (P=0 001) lower in treatment group (10%) as compared with placebo (21 94%). Only 3 cases had pro-arrhythmic effects and no side effects in treatment group. Conclusion: 1.Perioperative low-dose oral amiodarone significantly reduced the ventricular rate and reduced occurrence and duration of atrial fibrillation after CABG. 2.Low-dose amiodarone is well tolerated and decreased the risks of severe side effects and pro-arrhythmic effects, especially for these patients with high risk factors in perioperative period.

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion(MI/R) injury refers to restoring blood perfusion after myocardial ischemia for a relatively long time, but the tissue appears more obvious and severe myocardial damage and dysfunction than before reperfusion, this phenomenon mainly relates to inflammation, oxidative stress, cell apoptosis, cell autophagy and so on.NF-κB is a nuclear transcription factor involved in regulating a variety of pathophysiological processes, which also plays an important role in all aspects of MI/R injury.The in-depth study of NF-κB in MI/R injury and clinical application of related research will provide new ideas and methods for treating MI/R injury.
