BACKGROUND: Seed cell exerting its function is required to depend on the extracellular matrix in tissue engineering, so that biocompatible material is important to be selected. OBJECTIVE: To prepare a novel composite scaffolds of chitosan/collagen/nano-hydroxyapatite (HA-CS/Col/nHAP) and to optimize the technology of tissue engineered-stents according to the circumstances of cell adhesion.METHODS: Chitosan was modified by hyaluronate acid. The structure was observed by differential scanning calorimetry and the Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. Three composites of HA-CS/Col/nHAP according to different ratio of chitosan and collagen solution (1: 2; 1: 1 and 2: 1) were prepared. The composite scaffolds were co-cultured with osteoblast MC3T3-E1, and the proliferation and cell growth curve were measured by CCK-8 method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Hyaluronic acid and chitosan were crosslinked with amide linkage. Pore size was on the range from 50 μm to 250 μm. Porosity was increased with increased collagen level and elastic modulus, but density was reduced. Increased collagen content was beneficial for cell adhesion and proliferation on stent in the primary phase of cell co-culture. However, from day 10, no significant difference was determined among three samples. At the beginning of cell culture, cells adhered to the airspace insides the composite scaffolds. In the following days, cells grew in a colony manner, and cell-cell junction could be easily observed. These indicate that HA-CS/Col /nHAP composite scaffolds can improve the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast. The ratio of chitosan to collagen volume at 1: 1 was optimal.

Objective To observe the effects of Dahuangfuzi decoction on the intestine barrier functional of acute necrotizing pancreatitis in rats. Methods The 60 rats were randomly divided into sham operation group ( n = 19 ), ANP group ( n = 21 ), and Dahuangfuzi treatment group ( n = 20). The rats of ANP group were induced by injecting 1 ml/kg of 4% sodium taurocholate into the pancreatiobiliary duct, and jejunal fistula was esablished. The rats of treatment group received Dahuangfuzi decoction (2 ml, repeated at 4 and 8 h)through jejunum distal stoma tube 0. 5 h after ANP induction. The other 2 groups received same amount of normal saline. Blood sample was collected through abdominal aorta, 24 h after ANP induction, and the serum amylase, endotoxin, D-lactate, plasma diamine oxidase (DAO) were detected. Pancreas, small intestine tissue was harvested for pathologic examination, index of intestinal epithelial damage was measured and ultrastructural changes in small intestinal mucosa was observed. Results The expression of serum amylase, endotoxin,D-lactate, DAO in sham operation group was ( 152 ± 32 ) U/L, (6.95 ± 2.10) pg/L, ( 3.96 ± 1.08 ) μg/mland ( 14.26 ± 2.67 ) μg/ml, while the corresponding values were ( 1549 ± 93 ) U/L, (40.48 ± 3.41 ) pg/L,( 12.34 ± 1.23 ) μg/ml and ( 80.28 ± 3.54) μg/ml in ANP group, and they were (655 ± 49 ) U/L, ( 19.55 ±2.50) pg/L, (6.75 ± 1.36 ) μg/mland ( 20.69 ± 7.53 ) μg/ml in treatment group. The values in ANP group were significantly higher than those in sham operation group. The values in treatment group were significantly lower than those in ANP group, but significantly higher than those in sham operation group ( P < 0.05 or P <0. 01 ). The thickness and height of intestinal mucosa in ANP group were ( 389.44 ± 29.87 )μm and ( 16.52 ±3.73) μm, which were significantly lower than those in treatment group [(501.95 ± 45.38 )μm, (27.82 ±5.17)] μm, and in sham operation group [( 658.72 ± 57.49 ) μm, ( 35.49 ± 6.43 )μm, Index of intestional epitholial donage in ANP group was 3.72 ± 0.65 which is significently higher than those in theatment (2.12 ±0.37 ) and in sham operation group (0.85 ± 0.24). The intestinal mucosa histological and ultrastructural changes in Dahuangfuzi treatment group were better than those in ANP group. Conclusions Dahuangfuzidecoction can significantly decrease the damage of intestine barrier function in ANP rats.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of the histogram analysis of mono-exponential and intravoxel incoherent motion(IVIM) models to the dualistic model of epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC). Methods Forty female patients with histopathologically proven epithelial ovarian cancer underwent preoperative MR examination. Scanning sequences included conventional imaging, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging with 11 b values (0, 30, 50, 100, 150, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1 000, 1 500 s/mm2) and dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI). Based on the dualistic model of EOC, all patients were divided into two groups:typeⅠ(low grade, n=16) and typeⅡ(high grade, n=24). ADC, D, D*and f maps and their corresponding histograms were generated by post-processing software. Based on an entire-tumour measurement, the following histogram parameters were recorded, respectively: (a) Mean; (b) the 10th percentile (10th);(c) the mean of the top 10 percent (MeanL);(d) the 90th percentile (90th);(e) the mean of the bottom 10 percent (MeanR). Two types were compared using independent sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test. And areas under ROC curve between two groups were assessed. Results For ADC , D, and f, all indices(Mean,10th,MeanL,90th,MeanR) of the histogram were significantly lower in typeⅡthan in type Ⅰ(P<0.05). All of parameters of D* had no significant different(P>0.05). D demonstrated a comparable accuracy with ADC in differentiating the grade of EOC (area under curve: Mean, 0.898 vs. 0.893; 10th, 0.880 vs. 0.846; MeanL, 0.878 vs. 0.858; 90th, 0.895 vs. 0.839; MeanR, 0.872 vs. 0.814), and both ADC and D have better performance than f. Conclusion It is feasible to stratify the grade of EOC by mono-exponential and IVIM models with histogram metrics,diagnositic efficiency of ADC and D values are higher.

High-quality development is the primary task of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. Organ donation and transplantation in China are evolving from high-speed growth to high-quality development, which put forward new requirements for the safe, stable and healthy operation of Organ Procurement Organization (OPO). Safety is the foundation and prerequisite for achieving the goal of high-quality development. As an independent and comprehensive department, internal audit should create new achievements in the new era. The department should include OPO and organ donation into the scope of internal audit, shift the emphasis upon the overall development of organ donation. Besides, it should fully consider the actual situation in different places, conduct all-round, objective and fair evaluation, provide evaluation and consulting services for OPO to properly implement organ donation, and give full play to the supervision and prevention role of internal audit.

Objective:To explore the application and value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in refractory infection after organ transplantation.Methods:A case report discussed about a patient with lumbar spine infection after kidney transplantation and the relevant literature was reviewed. The recipient was a 63-year-old man with low back pain after kidney transplantation. Lumbar spine magnetic resonance imaging showed lumbar spine infection. Multiple operations plus antibacterial and antituberculosis treatments were ineffective. Before and after treatment, numerous tests of traditional pathogenic microorganisms failed to detect any positive bacteria.Results:The detection of lumbar secretion by mNGS suggested aspergillus infection. The symptoms improved after dosing of voriconazole.Conclusions:The incidence of fungal infection of lumbar spine is low. The imaging manifestations are non-typical so that it is easy to misdiagnose. mNGS helps to timely diagnose and guide treatment. With a review of the literature, mNGS has some application value for some difficult and rare infectious diseases.

Vivid and abundant social practice constantly creates new understanding, which will inevitably lead to the emergence of new disciplines. Organ donation discipline is involved with multiple disciplines, such as ethics, law, medicine, sociology and psychology, etc. After entering a new stage of high-quality development, whether it is necessary to establish the discipline of "organ donation" is worthy of discussion. According to the basic standards for establishing a new discipline, groundbreaking achievements in organ donation could lay a solid foundation for the establishment of "organ donation" discipline. However, current conditions for the establishment of "organ donation" are not fully mature, and the process of discipline establishment will absolutely encounter resistance. In the future, the scope and orientation of organ donation should be further elucidated, and a series of measures should be taken, such as establishing independent academic organizations, offering organ donation courses, carrying out special research and innovation, and strengthening international cooperation and exchanges, aiming to promote the establishment of organ donation discipline. The cooperation between academic community and governments is the key to promote the establishment of the discipline of organ donation. Governments will make final decisions by comprehensively considering the investment of resources, development needs of the discipline and the relationship among existing disciplines.
