BACKGROUND:Platelet-rich plasma contains a variety of stimulating factors, and can also raise the proteoglycan and col agen synthesis. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of platelet-rich plasma on the proliferation of goat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s. METHODS:Blood samples were extracted from the jugular vein of Inner Mongolia Ximeng goats to harvest platelet-rich plasma using centrifugation method. Then, bone marrow was extracted from the goat’s ilium by puncture method to isolate and purify goat bone marrow mesechymal stem cel s using density gradient centrifugation method. After that, primary cel s at good state were cultured in L-DMEM complete medium containing 10%, 20%, 30%platelet-rich plasma or in simple L-DMEM complete medium. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Within 2-6 days of culture, cel s in the platelet-rich plasma groups proliferated faster than those in the control group, and with the increasing of platelet-rich plasma concentration, the cel s grew faster, with larger number and more mature morphology. At 4 days of culture, the cel doubling time was about 50, 35, 25 hours in the 10%, 20%, and 30%platelet-rich plasma groups, respectively. These findings indicate that goat platelet-rich plasma can dramatical y promote the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in a concentration-dependent manner.

ObjectiveTo investigate the values of C-reactive protein (CRP) and pleural effusion in predicting the severity in the early stage of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) . Methods A total of 89patients with acute pancreatitis were collected from October 2008 through October 2010 for retrospective analysis. Patients were divided into two groups, namely mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) group and SAP group as per the Guidelines for Clinical Diagnosis and Classification of Acute Pancreatitis set by the Society of Chinese Medical Association in 2003. The levels of CRP were measured on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 7th days after admission. Pleural effusion was also observed on the 1 st day after admission. The data of two groups were analyzed and compared. ResultsThere were significant differences in CRP at all intervals between SAP group and MAP group (P ＜0.05) . The relative risk of increase in CRP ( ＞ 150 mg/L),pleural effusion and increase in CRP along with pleural effusion were analyzed, and each of these three markers can be used as an independent severity factor of SAP. Particularly, increase in CRP along with pleural effusion could be most sensitive in predicting the severity of SAP with relative risk (RR) to be 4. 8 and specificity of predictive value to be 100％. ConclusionsC-reactive protein and pleural effusion are available, simple and economic biomarkers which can help us predict the risk of acute pancreatitis in the early stage.

Objective To explore the relationship between preoperative serum pro-adrenomedullin (pro-ADM) in the patients with closed rupture of small intestine,and postoperative secondary abdominal infection,and to study the value of postoperative serum pro-ADM in assessment of severity of postoperative secondary abdominal infection of this patients.Methods Eighty-five patients with closed rupture of small intestine treated in the emergency surgery from June 2014 to May 2015 were selected.According to the presence of postoperative abdominal infection or not,these patients were divided into infection group and non-infection group.The infection group was further divided into SIRS,sepsis,severe sepsis,septic shock subgroups as per the severity of infection.The levels of serum pro-ADM,interleukin-6 (IL-6),C-reactive protein (CRP) were determined and the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score was calculated at admission and the first day、the second day and the third day after operation.Comparisons of these biomarkers were carried out to find out the factors associated with postoperative abdominal infection.In addition,ROC curve was used to verify the factors for predicting the abdominal infection of these patients after operation.The relationship between serum levels of pro-ADM and APACHE Ⅱ score after operation was analyzed.The severity of abdominal infection after operation was assessed with laboratory findings.Results Compared with non-infection group,preoperative and postoperative serum pro-ADM (P =0.03,P ＜ 0.01),IL-6 (P =0.02,P ＜0.01) levels and APACHE Ⅱ scores (P ＜ 0.01,P ＜ 0.01) were significantly higher in infection group (P ＜ 0.05).In the infection groups,the postoperative levels of serum pro-ADM and APACHE Ⅱ scores were increased with the severity of infection increased (r =0.924),and the difference between the groups was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05),but there were no significant differences in IL-6 and CRP levels between two groups.Conclusion (1) The serum levels of pro-ADM before operation has value in predicting the genesis of abdominal infection in these patients after operation.(2) The serum levels of pro-ADM after operation has value in severity assessment of abdominal infection in these patients after operation.

Objective To investigate the interventional therapy and its value in the metal foreign matter in the stomach. Methods Eight patients with metal foreign matter in the stomach was studied. All patients were male, and their age ranged from 28 to 46 years with the mean age of 32.2 years. All patients had the medical history of swallowing metal foreign matter in compulsory detoxification or imprisonment. The catheter was inserted into the stomach lead by guide wire lubricated by paraffine. Then the guide wire was withdrawn and a 2.6 m long guide wire was folded in the middle and was inserted into the sromach through the catheter. A loop was made on the guide wire, and the loop was controlled to to hitch the forigen mater, then the guide wire was drawn out slowly . Results A total of 12 metal foreign matters in the stomach in all 8 patients were taken out safely, and no comqlications occurred. Conclusion The interventional therapy for the metal foreign matter in the stomach is simply, minimal invasive, cheap, effective, and with little complication. This therapy is a clinic treatment, the patient is glad to accept, and is the ideal therapy for foreign matter in the stomach.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes in peripheral blood of patients with acute pancreatitis α-MSH,TNF-α,PCTS and the value of the patient assessment of disease severity.Methods Emergency surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from March 2011 to March 2014 were treated 68 cases of acute pancreatitis patients,36 patients with mild,32 cases of severe group.All patients were extracted 1,3,5,7 days after admission blood,and α-MSH was measured by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay,the content of TNF-αand PCT.Results Compared with the mild group,the serum of patients with severe group of α-MSH concentrations were lower (P ＜ 0.05),while serum TNF-αand PCT levels higher than the mild group (P ＜ 0.05);in disease severity assessment,α-MSH sensitivity of 82.35％ and a specificity of 88.24％,the accuracy was 87.5％,TNF-α sensitivity of 76.47％ and a specificity of 82.35％,the accuracy was 81.25％,PCT sensitivity of 70.59％ and a specificity of 76.47％,75.00％ accuracy,PCT + TNF-α + α-MSH sensitivity of 88.24％ and a specificity of 94.12％,93.75％ accuracy;area under the PCT,TNF-α,α-MSH and the combination of the three curves 0.690,0.696,0.768 and 0.885,respectively.Conclusions Serum α-MSH,monitoring TNF-α,PCT levels have some clinical value in patients with acute pancreatitis disease severity assessment,including α-MSH in the condition assessment of the sensitivity,specificity and positive predictive value were higher than the latter two,and peripheral α-MSH in patients with a low level indicates a serious condition,poor prognosis;addition,combined detection with higher clinical value in the assessment of disease severity.

Objective To study the change of serum diamine oxidase (DAO) level in patients with severely acute pancreatitis (SAP) in order to explore the role of DAO in assessing the severity of SAP and the magnitude of gastrointestinal dysfunction.Methods From January 2012 through December 2013,56 SAP patients with 33 male and 23 female and average age (45-± 14) years admitted within 3 days after onset were enrolled for this study.At admission,serum diamine oxidase (DAO) was detected,and APACHE Ⅱ score,computed tomography severity index (CTSI) score and Balthazar grading and gastrointestinal dysfunction score were calculated.And at the corresponding time,serum procalcitonin (PCT) was detected.The correlations between serum DAO level and 4 other markers were analyzed.Results The high level of serum DAO was found at admission in SAP patients correlating positively with serum PCT concentrations (r =0.516,P＜ 0.01),APACHE Ⅱ score (r =0.631,P＜ 0.01),CTIS score (r=0.640,P ＜ 0.01),and the degree of gastrointestinal dysfunction (r =0.730,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The role of serum DAO in assessing the severity of SAP and magnitude of gastrointestinal dysfunction in SAP patients is really valid.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Pingyangmycin lipiodol emulsion (PLE) embolization for cavernous hemangioma of liver (CHL). Methods Seldinger technique was adopted and the catheter was super-selectively sent into the supplying artery of tumors in 18 CHL patients, 5-10 ml of Lidocaine and 5-20 ml of PLE were slowly injected. Before the embolization, 50-100 mg of pethidine was routinely injected. The embolization was conducted in several times in patients with large tumors, with multiple supplying arteries, and whose age was above 60 years. During the 3-48 months'follow-up after the operation,the change of the tumor diameter before and after the embolization was compared by using CT and ultrasound. The clinical symptomatic relief and the complications were also observed. Results The CHL of all the 18 cases were filled up by PLE. The foci were completely vanished in 9 cases, reduced by over 50% in 7 cases,and reduced by 25%-50% in 2 cases,respectively. The follow-up angiographic examination was performed in six cases, the tumor staining was completely vanished and the tumor-supplying artery was closed up. The improving rate of the clinical symtoms reached 89% . There were no serious complications. Conclusion The PLE embolization in hepatic cavernous hemangioma proves to be reliable, safe, minimally invasive, and with little side effect. This therapy, therefore, can be the first method of choice in treating the cavernous hemangioma of the liver.

Objective To explore the value of peripheral blood serum levels of PCT,CRP,TNF-α and free DNA of cells in predicting the development of MODS in patients with multiple trauma.Methods Complete detail clinical data of 54 casualties with multiple trauma admitted within 24 hours after accident from January 2011 through January 2012 were collected for retrospective study.The patients were divided into MODS group and non-MODS group according the criteria set forth by the Chinese Society of Critical Care and Emergency Medicine in 1995 national conference.The data of two groups are comparable,and data of another 20 healthy subjects undertaking routine annual physical examination were taken as control.The peripheral blood levels of PCT,CRP,TNF-α and free DNA of patients of two groups were determined 1 d,2 d,3 d,and 5 days after admission.Then the results were analyzed and compared between groups.Results Compared with non MODS group,the levels of PCT,CRP,free DNA of cells in MODS group were significantly higher (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no deference in TNF-α between MODS group and non-MODS group (P ＞ 0.05).When the relative risks of increased PCT (PCT≥6 mg/L),increased CRP (CRP≥ 130 mg/L)、and increased free DNA of cells (free DNA ≥ 10 0005/L) were analyzed,the presence of these 3 biomarkers with high levels occurred at the same time was the most accurate way to predicts MODS in 6.00 relative risk (RR),and the positive predictive value was 100％.Conclusions PCT,CRP,free DNA of cells could be the predictors of MODS in patients with severe multiple trauma,and the presence of high levels of these three biomarkers appearing together had high sensitivity and specificity for prediction.
