Objective To assess the safety and efficacy of an olive oil-based lipid emulsion for parenteral nutrition in patients after hepatectomy.Methods Thirty-one postoperative patients with elective hepateetomy were randomized to receive isonitrogenous,isocalorie parenteral nutrition over 6 days after liver lobectomy(48-72hours)with either olive oil-based lipid emulsion(study group,n=15)or standard soybean oil emulsion(control group,n=16).The liver function and plasma protoins were assessed using peripheral venous blood collected before surgery,one day after surgery,and 7 days after surgery.The safety profiles of emulsion supports and postoperative rehabilitation were also assessed.Results The preoperative serum levels of total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,alanine amiotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,alkaline phosphatase,total protein,albumin,and prealbumin were comparable between the two groups(all P>0.05).Although the Postoperative safety profile and liver function were not significantly different between two groups(all P>0.05),plasma total proteins,albumin,and prealbumin returned to the normal levels significantly faster in the study group than in control group[(57.57±9.84)g/L vs.(47.76±6.53)g/L,P=0.000;(31.29±3.11)g/L vs.(26.34±4.87)g/L,P=0.000;(0.188±0.059)g/L vs.(0.103±0.037)g/L,P=0.000]on the 7th Postoperative day,and the Postoperative hospital stay was also significantly shorter in the study group[(13.1±1.2)d vs.(15.2±1.1)d,P=0.041].The incidence of postoperative complications in study group and control group was 26.7%and 31.3%.respectively.Conclusions Treatment with the new olive oil-based lipid emulsion is weU tolerated in hepatectomy patients.It can speed up plasma proteins recovery and may shorten postoperative hospital stay,although it does not remarkably decrease the incidence of postoperative complications.

The initiation and operation of the tissue repair program between the broken ends after fracture is very important for fracture healing, which goes through three intertwined and gradual evolution stages: hematoma inflammatory organization stage, primitive callus formation stage and callus remodeling stage. It is completed by a variety of tissues, cells and cytokines in the bone marrow cavity. In the study of the mechanism of fracture healing, it is found that there are many signal pathways and molecules regulating bone repair, including bone formation, bone remodeling and neovascularization. At the cellular level, it regulates osteoblasts, chondrocytes, osteoclasts and endothelial cells. Hippo signaling pathway is a signal pathway that maintains the size of organs and the balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis, and also plays an important role in maintaining bone homeostasis and bone metabolism. In the process of regulating bone development and repair, it regulates the physiological activities of cells in microenvironment through protein kinase cascade reaction and transcriptional coactivator. The upstream and downstream effectors of Hippo signal pathway directly or indirectly regulate the proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of bone metabolic cells, and the interaction with Wnt signal pathway, Notch signal pathway and other important pathways related to bone repair show that Hippo signal pathway plays an important role in the regulation of fracture healing and may become a new target to promote fracture healing. This article reviews the regulatory mechanism of Hippo signaling pathway and its regulatory role in the process of fracture healing, and looks forward to the research prospect of promoting bone healing by using it as a target.

Objective To develop a modified method of adherent culturing NSCs to replace the traditional suspension culturing method.Methods Neural stem cells(NSCs)were isolated from brain of fetal mouse at 15.5-day fetal age.In culture bottle which had been pre-coated with poly-L-ornithine hydrochloride/fibronectin(PO/FN),the cells were adherently cultured and passaged.The cell morphology was observed under inverted microscope.NSCs and their differentiated cells were identified by immunofluorescence.Results NSCs obtained in this study were successfully adherently cultured and expressed specific markers.Conclusion NSCs are successfully adherently cultured in this study.As compared with the traditional suspension culturing method,adherent culturing is simpler and has lower wastage of passage.It is easy to observe cell morphology and differentiation by this method.It is also helpful to culturing and storage of NSCs.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic significance of synchronous observation on bone marrow biopsy,bone marrow smear and peripheral blood smear in stubborn hematonosis.Methods Thirty-seven patients with difficult and complicated hematologic diseases were detected by peripheral blood smear,bone marrow smear and bone marrow biopsy.Those slides and smears were observed.Results The 37 cases with blood disease was diagnosed of aplastic anemia in 3 cases,5 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome,6 cases of primary myelofibrosis,13 cases of secondary myelofibrosis,7 cases of lymphoma with bone marrow infiltration and 3 cases of metastatic carcinoma of bone marrow.In the diagnosis of aplastic anemia,myelodysplastic syndrome,primary and secondary myelofibrosis,lymphoma and metastatic carcinoma of bone marrow diagnosis,bone marrow biopsy is superior to smear.Conclusion Bone marrow biopsy,bone marrow smear and peripheral blood smear synchronous observation can effectively increase the diagnostic rate,decrease misdiagnosis rate,and correctly identify the stage of the disease.

Background and purpose:Unbalance of apoptosis regulation plays an important role in tumor initiation and progression.Survivin and caspase-3 all take part in the regulation of cell cycle and apoptosis.We investigated the role of survivin and caspase-3 in apoptosis of gastric carcinoma,as well as its relationship with the clinicopathologic features and the prognosis of gastric carcinoma by using tissue microarray.Methods:The gastric cancer tissue microarrays were composed of tissues from 100 cases of carcinoma of the stomach without a history of chemo-radiation therapy and 30 gastric tissues of control subject.The diameter of each specimen on tissue microarrays was 2.0 mm.Expressions of survivin,caspase-3 were investigated immunohistochemically on these tissue microarrays.Tumor cell apoptosis index was also examined by TUNEL method.Of the 100 cases,47 cases were followed-up from 14 months to 13 years,in which the prognosis was analyzed.Results:Two paraffin-embedded gastric carcinoma tissue microarrays were successfully constructed,including 114 and 116 tissue spots,respectively.Immunohistochemical analysis showed that survivin expression was positive in 78 cases(78%) in this series.In contrast,no expression of survivin in control tissues was detected(P

Objective: The impact of parenteral fish oil lipid emulsion on liver function and nutritional status of malignant tumors of the liver and gallbladder patients. Methods: From December 2007 to A-pril 2008, 32 post-operative hepatobiliary cancer patients were randomly divided into control and study groups. Two groups were treated with isocaloric, isonitrogenic parenteral nutrition and the study group was added fish oil lipid emulsion. Comparison of plasma protein, glucose, jaundice index, transaminase, ALP and the rate of infection complications was made betweent the two groups. Results: The blood glucose, transaminase and ALP levels were not significantly different between the two groups. But the plasma proteins and bilirubin levels were improved significantly (P < 0.05) with reduced infection complication in the study group. Conclusion : Fish oil lipid emulsion is conducive to the recovery of post-operative liver and gallbladder cancer patients in live function and nutritional status.

Objective To characterize the regular and the dynamic contrast enhancement MR imaging in choroidal hemangioma.Methods MR imaging findings of 30 cases (31eyes, 32 lesions) with choroidal hemangioma confirmed by follow-up results were retrospectively analyzed.Among them, postcontrasted T1-weighted imaging was performed in 30 patients and dynamic contrast enhancement scanning was performed in 26 cases.MRI findings and the time-intensity curve of dynamic contrast enhancement were analyzed.Results Among the 32 choroidal hemangiomas, 26 of them were at the temporal side of optic disc and 28 lesions were fusiform.Before enhancement, 23 lesions showed isointense T1-weighted signal and 31 lesions were isointense on T2-weighted imaging.All the lesions showed strong enhancement on postcontrast T1-weighted imaging, including 31 homogenously enhanced lesions and one heterogeneously enhanced lesion.Retinal detachments were found in 18 eyes.Fill-in sign were observed in 12 lesions during dynamic contrast enhancement.The time-intensity curve of dynamic contrast enhancement in 28 lesions suggested a pattern with rapid enhancement and slow washout, time to peak (91.00±25.27) s, slope ratio 3.03±1.13, the median of washout ratio 17.06%, enhancement ratio 2.87±0.79.Conclusion MRI showed a few features of the location, shape, signal characteristics, and enhancement pattern in choroidal hemangioma, which may contribut to diagnosis and treatment plan of this disease.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of velocity vector imaging(VVI)in evaluating the left ventricular(LV)segmental longitudinal systolic function in patients with coronary artery disease(CAD).Methods In 25 patients with myocardial ischemia,28 patients with myocardial infarction,26 patients with coronary lumen stenosis＜50%,according to coronary arteriography and electrocardiogram,the myocardial segments of LV were divided into 4 groups:ischemic segments group,infarcted segments group,non-ischemic segments group and normal segments group.Twenty-eight healthy subjects were selected as control group.Dynamic imaging of all subjects were collected,the systolic peak strain(Smax)and strain rate(SRmax),the time to peak strain(PTs)and the time to peak strain rate(PTsr)were measured respectively.Results Smax and SRmax of the ischemic segments and infracted segments were significantly lower than those of the control group respectively,PTs and PTsr of the ischemic segments and infracted segments were significantly longer than those of the control group respectively.Smax and SRmax of infarcted segments were significantly lower than those of the ischemic segments,there were no differences of PTs and PTsr between ischemic segments and infracted segments.Smax and SRmax cutoff of -14.08%,-0.83 s-1 for detecting ischemic segments and cutoff of -6.65%,-0.38 s-1 for detecting infracted segments,respectively,gave an optimal sensitivity and specificity.Conclusions VVI is a kind of novel noninvasive-tool to quantitatively assess LV regional systolic function in CAD patients.It is competent to differentiate between the ischemic segments and infarcted segments.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the co-expression of CD105 and cyclin D1 and lymph node metastasis and prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma ( ESCC ). Methods Eighty cases of ESCC tissue were collected at The First People's Hospital of Nantong. The expression of CD105 and cyclin D1 of ESCC was detected by immunohistochemistry. The relationship between the co-expression of CD105 and cyclin D1 and lymph node metastasis and prognosis of ESCC was analysed. Eighty normal esophageal tissues were selected as controls. All data were analysed by t test, chi-square test, and Pearson correlation analysis. Survival was analysed by the Kaplan-Meier survival curve. Microvessel density (MVD) was used to indicate the expression of CD105 in the form of -x±s. Results The expression of CD105 in ESCC tissues was higher (36±8) than that in normal esophageal tissues ( 11±3) (t =25. 129, P＜0.05). The positive rate of cyclin D1 expression in ESCC tissues was 61% (49/80), which was significantly higher than 23% (18/80) in normal esophageal tissues ( x2 =4.972, P＜0.05). The MVD value of 44 patients was ≤36 (LCD105), and nine of them had lymph node metastasis. The MVD value of the remaining 36 patient was ＞ 36 ( HCD105 ), and 26 of them had lymph node metastasis. Twenty-eight patients with positive expression of cyclin D1 had lymph node metastasis, while seven patients with negative expression of cyclin D1 had lymph node metastasis. The results of Pearson correlation analysis revealed that a high expression of CD105 and a positive cyclin D1 expression were correlated with lymph node metastasis (x2 =21.562, 9.217, P＜0.05). The survival times of 28 patients with positive cyclin D1 and HCD105,21 patients with positive cyclin D1 and LCD105, eight patients with negative cyclin D1 and HCD105, and 23 patients with negative cyclin D1 and LCD105 were (31±6) months, (47±7) months, (51±9) months and (61±5) months, respectively, with a significant difference among the four groups (F = 11.76, P ＜ 0. 05 ).Conclusion Co-expression of CD105 and cyclin D1 may be used as a prognostic factor of ESCC.
