Objective:To evaluate the time-zero biopsy of donor kidney with acute kidney injury(AKI)in organ donation donors and examine the clinical effect after transplantation.Methods:From May 2019 to May 2020, clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 104 donors assessed by time-zero biopsy at First Affiliated Hospital, Zhengzhou University.According to the definition of AKI and Banff2016 criteria, the kidneys of 104 donors were grouped and evaluated for transplantation.And the post-transplantation effects of donor kidneys with different degrees of pathological changes were analyzed.Results:AKI occurred in 32/104 donors.Compared with non-AKI donors, statistically significant differences existed in degrees of renal interstitial fibrosis and acute renal tubular injury ( P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in other pathological manifestations ( P>0.05). In AKI group, kidneys of 2 donors with Banff score>3 were abandoned; in non-AKI group, among 12 donors with Banff score>3, 1 donor kidney was abandoned due to a high degree of chronic diseases.No significant inter-group difference existed in creatinine value or estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)( P>0.05). AKI group had a higher incidence of postoperative delayed graft function(DGF)and longer duration.There was no statistical significance in other complications ( P>0.05). Conclusions:AKI donor kidneys with pathological manifestations below moderate renal tubular injury and Banff score<3 are feasible for transplantation.Although renal function recovery is slow after transplantation, safe outcomes may be obtained.

Objective:To summarize the preliminary experience of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation(RFA) in the treatment of early breast cancer(the length of the lesion<15 mm) with negative sentinel lymph node(SLN), and to evaluate its feasibility and efficacy.Methods:From October 2016 to November 2019, 18 patients with early breast cancer(the length of the lesion<15 mm) treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University underwent FNAC of axillary SLN under the guidance of CEUS were enrolled. Patients with pathologically negative axillary SLN were treated with percutaneous RFA of breast cancer. The complete ablation rate and the relapse rate were evaluated. Intraoperative pain, postoperative complications and postoperative patient satisfaction were analyzed.Results:Eighteen patients underwent CEUS-guided FNAC of SLN, of which 1 case was positive and 17 cases were negative. Seventeen breast cancer lesions of the 17 negative patients underwent percutaneous RFA. The length of the lesions was 3.3-14.0 (8.2±3.9)mm, the complete ablation rate was 100%, the ablation time was 9-18 (12.8±2.7)min. During the follow-up of 9-46 months, no patient developed tumor progression. There were no serious complications related to RFA after operation. The patients′ satisfactory rate for postoperative appearance was 100%.Conclusions:RFA of early breast cancer(the length of the lesion<15 mm) with negative SLN is feasible and has the advantages of safety, minimal invasion and beauty.

Objective:To explore the prognostic factors of patients with gallbladder cancer in different anatomical locations.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 140 patients with gallbladder cancer who were surgically treated in the 904 Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force from January 2015 to December 2015. Among them, 49 were males and 91 were females, with a median age of 64.0 years. According to the location of gallbladder cancer, they were divided into the neck of the gallbladder and the bottom of the gallbladder. The clinical data of the two groups were compared. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for univariate analysis, and Cox multivariate regression analysis was used to analyze the significant factors of univariate survival to determine the independent risk factors that affect the prognosis of patients with gallbladder cancer. Use Pearson correlation to analyze the correlation between clinicopathological characteristics.Results:Patients in the neck of the gallbladder group had higher levels of preoperative total bilirubin, preoperative albumin, carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 19-9, extrahepatic bile duct resection (biliary-enteric anastomosis), radical resection, breakthrough of the liver/serous membrane invasion, lymph node metastasis, TNM staging, local recurrence in the operation area in the surgical area were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Univariate analysis suggested that preoperative jaundice, Glasgow prognostic score (GPS), C-reactive protein, carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 19-9, accidental gallbladder cancer, surgical method, tumor pathological type, tumor differentiation degree, tumor growth location (neck than the bottom of the body) are related to the prognosis (all P<0.05). Cox regression analysis indicated that GPS ( RR=3.272, 95 CI: 1.987-5.388), surgical method ( RR=4.149, 95 CI: 2.561-6.723), tumor location ( RR=0.316, 95 CI: 0.209-0.478), distant metastasis ( RR=1.695, 95 CI: 1.036-2.775) and TNM staging ( RR=3.686, 95 CI: 2.222-6.115) are independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of gallbladder cancer. Correlation analysis suggests that neck tumors are related to later staging, liver bile duct invasion, lymph node metastasis, high inflammation levels, and low radical cure rates. Conclusions:Gallbladder cancer that occurs in the neck of the gallbladder is an independent factor influencing the poor prognosis of patients with surgical treatment. In addition, TNM staging, distant metastasis and Glasgow score are important predictors of survival in patients with gallbladder cancer.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) and NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) in gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:Surgical specimens and clinical data were collected from 63 patients with GBC who underwent radical cholecystectomy in the 904th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of PLA from January 2014 to January 2019. In the GBC group, there were 21 males and 42 females, with an average age of 62.5 years. For 30 patients with mild to moderate atypical hyperplasia of gallbladder during the same period were included in the precancerous lesion group, including 9 males and 21 females, with an average age of 62.4 years. Normal gallbladder specimens from 20 patients who underwent surgical resection due to liver trauma or giant hepatic hemangioma were collected and included in the normal group, including 7 males and 13 females, with an average age of 61.9 years. The expressions of GOLPH3, NLRP3, Ki-67 were detected by immunohistochemistry. Log-rank test and Cox regression were adopted to analyze the GOLPH3 and NLRP3 expression and survival prognosis of gallbladder cancer patients.Results:Expression of GOLPH3 and NLRP3 in the tumor group, precancerous lesion group and normal group was decreased separately. In GBC tissues, the level of GOLPH3 and NLRP3 was positively correlated with the Ki-67 expression ( r=0.972 and r=0.969, both P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that high level of GOLPH3 ( HR=4.891, 95% CI: 1.776-13.470) and NLRP3 ( HR=3.006, 95% CI: 1.273-7.099) was an independent risk factor for predicting the postoperative survival of patients with GBC (both P<0.05). Conclusion:GOLPH3 and NLRP3 are highly expressed in GBC tissues, and high expression of GOLPH3 and NLRP3 is an independent risk factor for postoperative survival in patients with GBC.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of adriamycin (ADM), idelalisib or ADM and their combination on cell proliferation and intracellular concentration of ADM, and to explore the reversal effect of idelalisib on drug resistance to ADM. METHODS: The K562 and K562/ADM cells were respectively treated with ADM and idelalisib at different concentrations. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC RESULTS: The cell survival rates were significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner when the cells were treated with different doses of ADM (0.001-10.000 mg/L ). The IC CONCLUSIONS Idelalisib exerts effect on inhibition of the proliferation in myeloid leukemia K562 and K562/ADM cells, which may partially reverse the drug resistance of K562/ADM cells to ADM. The mechanisms for the effect of idelalisib may be related to increasing the accumulation of ADM and inducing the cell apoptosis in the K562 and K562/ADM cells.

Objective To investigate the expressions and the significance among the three markers TGF β1,Survivin and Caspase-3 in intrahepatic bile duct tissues in patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones.Method Total of 130 paraffin section of intrahepatic bile duct tissue were collected at Department of Pathology,The 904th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of PLA from 2013 to 2018.Total of 50 patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones complicated with bile duct strictures (the stenosis group),40 patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones with chronic inflammation (the inflammation group),and 40 patients with normal liver tissues (the normal control group) were included in this study.The expressions of TGF β1,Survivin and Caspase-3 in liver tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry and compared among the 3 groups to find their correlations with the clinicopathological features of the disease of the patients.Results TGF β1 was expressed in 72.0％ of the patients in the stenosis group,37.5％ in the inflammatory group,and 15.0％ in the normal control group.The differences among the groups were significant (P ＜ 0.05);Survivin was expressed in 78.0％ of the patients in the stenosis group,47.5％ in the inflammatory group,and 25.0％ in the normal control group.The differences among the groups were significant (P ＜ 0.05);Caspase-3 was expressed in 10.0％ of the patients in the stenosis group,42.5％ in the inflammatory group,and 75.0％ in the normal control group.The differences among the groups were significant (P ＜ 0.05).Within the stenosis group,TGF β1 was negatively correlated with Caspase-3 (r =-0.882,P ＜ 0.05),and positively correlated with Survivin (r =0.889,P ＜ 0.05).Survivin and Caspase-3 were also negatively correlated (r=-0.923,P＜0.05).Conclusion Abnormal expressions of TGF β1,Survivin and Caspase-3 were involved in the formation of intrahepatic bile duct stones associated with bile duct strictures.

Objective To investigate the early resuscitation effect of hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOC) in rats with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock.Methods 170 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups:lactate Ringer solution (LR) control group,whole blood control group,and 0.5％,2.0％,5.0％ HBOC groups,with 34 rats in each group.The uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock model in SD rats was reproduced by cutting off the splenic artery branch,and induced mean arterial pressure (MAP) reducing to 40 mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa).The corresponding solution was infused after model reproduction in each group,maintaining MAP at 50 mmHg for 1 hour,then completely ligating and hemostasis,and maintaining MAP at 70 mmHg for 1 hour and 80 mmHg for 1 hour respectively,after maintaining MAP 80 mmHg,all were supplemented with LR to 2 times blood loss volume.The survival rate and blood loss rate were observed in 16 rats in each group,hemodynamics parameters including MAP,left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP) and the maximum rate of left ventricular pressure rise (+dp/dtmax) were determined in another 10 rats,and cardiac output (CO) and tissue oxygen supply (DO2) were observed in the rest 8 rats.Results ① When resuscitation by LR alone,the blood loss rate of animals was as high as 60％ to 70％.Compared with the LR control group,whole blood recovery could significantly reduce the blood loss rate before hemostasis in uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock rats [(46.6 ± 4.5)％ vs.(62.3 ± 4.0)％,P ＜ 0.01];0.5％,2.0％,5.0％ HBOC could significantly decrease the blood loss rate,especially in 5.0％ HBOC group with significant difference as compared with that in the LR control group [(45.6±4.1)％ vs.(62.3±4.0)％,P ＜ 0.01].② When LR was used alone for resuscitation,the rats died quickly and survived for a short time.Only one rat survived for 12 hours,and no rat survived for more than 24 hours.Compared with the LR control group,whole blood resuscitation could improve the survival rate of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock rats,and the survival time was significantly prolonged (hours:20.4± 4.6 vs.3.5 ± 1.1,P ＜ 0.01);0.5％,2.0％ and 5.0％ HBOC also significantly prolonged the survival time of rats.The 5.0％ HBOC group had the best effect,4 rats survived in 24 hours,and the survival time was significantly longer than that of the LR control group (hours:18.4 ± 4.0 vs.3.5 ± 1.1,P ＜ 0.01),and it was the same as the whole blood control group.③ Compared with pre-shock,CO,DO2 and hemodynamic parameters of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock rats were significantly decreased,and the above parameters were gradually increased with the prolongation of rehydration time.Compared with the LR control group,whole blood resuscitation could significantly increase CO and DO2,and improve hemodynamics in rats with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock at different time points.Three concentrations of HBOC could also increase CO,DO2 and other hemodynamic parameters of rats at 1 hour of maintaining MAP of 80 mmHg after hemostasis and 1 hour and 2 hours after resuscitation.The effect of 5.0％ HBOC group was more significant than that of the LR control group with statistically significant difference [CO (× 10-3,L/min):72.84±2.84 vs.63.11±2.38 at 1 hour of maintaining MAP of 80 mmHg,70.25±4.55 vs.59.88 ± 9.31 at 1 hour after resuscitation,71.51 ± 2.90 vs.53.24 ± 6.32 at 2 hours after resuscitation;DO2 (L· min-1 · m-2):271.9± 13.5 vs.159.1 ±25.4 at 1 hour of maintaining MAP of 80 mmHg,261.0± 15.0 vs.145.7±20.1 at 1 hour after resuscitation,249.6± 12.0 vs.107.4± 18.2 at 2 hours after resuscitation;MAP (mmHg):82.1±2.1 vs.74.0±2.8 at 1 hour of maintaining MAP of 80 mmHg,107.5±9.3 vs.64.0±5.7 at 1 hour after resuscitation,104.0±9.7 vs.73.0±4.2 at 2 hours after resuscitation;LVSP (mmHg):128.6±7.9 vs.103.8±0.8 at 1 hour of maintaining MAP of 80 mmHg,129.3±± 15.0 vs.99.4±0.0 at 1 hour after resuscitation,127.5± 11.3 vs.97.4±0.0 at 2 hours after resuscitation;+dp/dt max (mmHg/s):6 534.2±± 787.6 vs.5 074.0± 71.7 at 1 hour of maintaining MAP of 80 mmHg,5 961.5 ±± 545.4 vs.4 934.5 ± 510.2 at 1 hour after resuscitation,5 897.4± 350.5 vs.4 534.7 ±489.2 at 2 hours after resuscitation,all P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions HBOC infusion prolonged the survival time,increased survival rate,and improved hemodynamics,cardiac function and tissue oxygen supply in a dose-dependent manner in the early stage of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock.The recovery effect of 5.0％ HBOC was similar to that of the whole blood.

BACKGROUND:To improve local microenvironment and reduce local scars is conducive to peripheral nerve regeneration that promotes nerve function recovery.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of fresh amniotic membrane on the regeneration of tinjured peripheral nerve.METHODS:Sixty healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=20 per group) after constructing a model of sciatic nerve injury of the unilateral leg. In group A, the nerve was wrapped with fresh human amnion at the anastomosis end after the repair of nerve. In group B, the nerve was wrapped with biofilm at the anastomosis end after the repair of nerve. In group C, no treatment was conducted after the repair of nerve (blank control). The effects were evaluated by anatomical observation, light microscope observation, immunohistochemical detection (2, 4, 8, 12 weeks after surgery), transmission electron microscope observation, axon imaging analysis, action potential detection, and sciatic nerve function index (4, 8, 12 weeks after surgery).RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Gross observation. The amniotic membrane and biofilm were absorbed partialy at postoperative 2 weeks, mostly at postoperative 4 weeks and completely at postoperative 8 weeks. In the groups A and B, the nerve was adhered slightly and loosely to the surrounding tissues, with a fair range of motion. In the group C, the nerve was tightly adhered to the surrounding tissues, with a poor range of motion. (2) Observation under light microscope. The nerve regeneration was better in the groups A and B than group C at 2, 4, 8, 12 weeks postoperatively. (3) Observation under electron microscope. Regenerated nerve fibers were rarely seen and lamelar structures were unclear in the three groups at 4 weeks postoperatively. Then, increased regenerated nerve fibers, thickened myelin sheath, clear lamelar structure and enlarged axon diameter were found in the groups A and B compared with the group C at 8 and 12 weeks postoperatively. (4) Immunohistochemical detection. The expression and distribution of S-100 protein in the groups A and B were better than those in the group C. (5) Axon image analysis. Groups A and B were superior to the group C in the diameter of myelinated nerve fibers, thickness of myelin sheath and number of regenerated nerve fibers. There was a significant difference by statistical analysis (P < 0.05). (6) Electrophysiological examination. Shorter latency period, higher amplitude and faster nerve conduction velocities were observed in the groups A and B compared with the group C (P < 0.05). (7) The sciatic function index. The sciatic function index in group A or B was significantly higher than that in group C (P < 0.05). To conclude, the human amniotic membrane can reduce adhesion between the damaged nerve and surrounding tissues, and prevent scarring at the anastomosis end. In addition, it promotes the regeneration of nerve fibers, increase axon diameter and myelin sheath thickness, and ease inflammatory and immune responses at the neural incision.

BACKGROUND:Experiments have demonstrated that biological membranes can be usedtorecon struct thetendon she athandin hibit exogenou shealing of thetendon.Therefore,the semembrane sprovide a good bed for tendon gliding and reduce tendon adhesion.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the effectsof acelular amniotic membrane and medical membraneagainst tendon adhesion during the repair oftendon sheath defects.
METHODS:ToesIIIfrom the bipeds of 66 leghorns were chosen to prepare tendon injury and tendon sheath defect models, which were randomly divided into three groups (n=22 per group). Amnion group were repaired with acelular amniotic membrane, medical membrane group with absorbable membrane, and control group had no treatment on tendon sheath defects. Gross, histological and biomechanical tests of each group were performed at 2, 4, 8, 12 weeks after surgery.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 12 weeks after surgery, in the amniotic membrane and medical membrane groups, the tendon sheath formed completely, and the tendon healed well, with no adhesion, but in the control group, there was serious tendon adhesion. At 8 weeks after surgery, the number of synovial cells in the false sheath was highest in the amniotic membrane group sequentially followed by the medical membrane group and control group. In the amniotic membrane group, the rough endoplasmic reticulum expanded highly and secreted exuberantly in the matrix, while in the control group, the synovial cells presented with messy arrangement, and expanded vacuoles in the matrix were weaker than those in the other two groups. At 12 weeks after surgery, fibroblasts were arrayedtidily in layerwith dense structure in the medical membrane and amniotic membrane groups;but in the control group, fibroblasts were distributed disorderly with loose structure. Tendon sliding distance and total flexor toe angle in the amniotic membrane and medical filmgroups were significantly larger than those in the control group (P < 0.05),butthere was no significant difference between the medical membrane and amniotic membrane groups. Additionally, the maximum tensile fracture strength had no significant difference among three groups at 12 weeks after surgery. These results indicate that both amniotic membrane and medical membrane can markedlyprotect the tendon from exogenous healing and adhesion.
