Objective:The aim of this study was to identify fibrinogen ( FG ) on the development of intimal hyperplasia ( IH ), using an organ culture model. Methods：Segments(n=9 ) of human saphenous vein ( HSV ) wereharvested during coronary artery or infrainguinal vein bypass surgery. The culture medium supplemented with FG (from0 mg/ml to 5 mg/ml ). The proliferation of smooth muscle cell ( SMC ) quantified by 5′-Bromodeoxyuridine (5′-BrdU) uptake in the final four days of the culture period. Histologic analysis and computerized morphometric analysis were used to determine intimal and medial thickness and area，then the intima/media thickness ratio and intima/media area ratio were calculated. Monoclonal antibodies to 5′-BrdU were used as an immunohistochemical maker for proliferating SMC. Results：Addition of FG ( 2.5 mg/ml ) to the cultured medium caused a significant increase in median ( range ) of intima/media thickness ratio and intima/media area ratio of these segments when compared with the normal cultured vein segments ( Wilcoxon paired rank test )：0.387versus 0.215（P=0.017 ）and 0.396 versus 0.229（P=0.015 ），respectively. Addition of FG ( 5.0 mg/ml ) to the cultured medium also caused a significant increase in median ( range ) of intima/media thickness ratio and intima/media area ratio of these segments when compared with the normal cultured vein segments: 0.421 versus 0.215（P=0.008 ）and 0.382 versus 0.229 （P=0.011 ），respectively. However，there were no significant differences in the two vein segments which 2.5 mg/ml or 5.0 mg/ml FG in cultured medium (P>0.05 ).In addition, there was no significant difference in the median ( range ) of intima/media thickness ratio and intima/media area ratio of the segments which FG ( 0.5 mg/ml ) in cultured medium when compared with the normal cultured vein segments ( P>0.05 ). These were supported by SMC proliferation index using staining with 5′-BrdU. Conclusion：High concentration FG at local preianastimotic area may an important factor for IH and early postoprative vein graft restenosis or occlusion.

OBJECTIVETo observe the feasibility of establishing a porcine model of microvascular coronary artery spasm by intracoronary neuropeptide Y (NPY) infusion, and to analyze the characterization of this model.

METHODSMinipigs were divided into four groups (n = 4 each): normal saline (NS) group, 1 nmol NPY group, 3 nmol NPY group, and 6 nmol NPY group. Arterial sheaths were planted into bilateral femoral arteries of minipigs. A pigtail catheter was placed at the left sheath to determine the hemodynamic parameters. NS and different doses of NPY were injected into the left anterior descending branch through the right sheath. Intravenous myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) was applied to measure the microvessel volume (α), filling velocity (β), and microcirculation blood flow (MBF) before and at 10 and 30 minutes after NS and NPY injection.

RESULTSBefore and after injection, there were no difference in α, β and MBF between NS and 1 nmol NPY group (all P > 0.05). In 3 nmol NPY group, α and MBF decreased at 10 min (P < 0.01 and 0.05, respectively), which were recovered at 30 min except α. Reductions of β (P < 0.05) and MBF (P < 0.01) were observed at 10 min in 6 nmol NPY group, which were recovered at 30 min, but MBF still remained lower than at baseline (P < 0.01) and compared to 3 nmol NPY group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONIntracoronary injection of NPY into the anterior descending coronary artery can establish the porcine model of microvascular coronary artery spasm, which might serve as a useful animal model for coronary microvascular studies.

With the development of modern medical technology,accurate resection of tumor and timely repair and repair of defective tissues and organs are important concerns in the field of tumor research.The precise excision of tumor,refers to the preoperative assessment of systemic and local detection based on detailed to personalized surgical planning,the use of precise operation in operation,ensure as much as possible while minimizing surgical trauma to patients after removal of the lesions,creating the optimal conditions of recovery for trauma patients.Repair and regeneration of defective tissues and organs refers to the deletion or damage of tissues and organs,and gradually resume its anatomical structure and function process under the action of a variety of cells,extracellular mechanisms and related regulatory factors.Then from the tumor resection,tumor resection and accurate regeneration after three point repair technology to change rapidly in the tissue of tumor plastic organ regeneration in tissue of origin.

Objective:To investigate the effects of different chemotherapy dose intensity on the short-term efficacy and adverse reactions of patients with advanced colon cancer.Methods:A real-world database of patients with advanced colon cancer in Wangjing Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and China-Japan Friendship Hospital from January 2017 to December 2020 was established, including 105 patients treated with the same chemotherapy regimen for two consecutive cycles. The patients were grouped according to the average relative dose intensity (ARDI) of chemotherapy, and the population differences, treatment regimens, short-term efficacy and adverse reactions of different chemotherapy dose intensities were evaluated. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of ARDI for short-term efficacy.Results:There were 31 patients in the high dose intensity group (ARDI≥80%) , 34 patients in the medium dose intensity group (80%0.05) . ROC curve analysis found that the area under the curve predicting objective response was 0.70, the sensitivity was 92.30%, and the specificity was 52.10% when the chemotherapy ARDI threshold was 64%. Conclusion:In the real world, colon cancer patients receiving high dose intensive chemotherapy have better objective response rate, and tumor markers decreased significantly. The baseline status of colon cancer patients receiving low dose intensive chemotherapy is poor, but there is no statistically significant difference in disease control rate between patients receiving low dose intensive chemotherapy and patients receiving high dose intensive chemotherapy, and the adverse reactions are controllable.

Objective To explore hemodynamic performance of the aortic dissection after lesions, so as to provide a more scientific basis for patient treatment. Methods Based on computed tomography angiography (CTA) image data from a patient with complex Stanford B-type aortic dissection, the personalized aortic dissection models with different rupture shapes (H-type, O-type, and V-type) at proximal end of the aortic dissection were established. Combined with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and morphological analysis method, distributions of the velocity at rupture section, the blood flow, the wall pressure and the wall shear stress (WSS) were analyzed. Results The flow velocity, the highest pressure difference and the WSS proportion at entrance of the H-shaped rupture showed larger hemodynamic parameters than those of the other two types. The risk of dissection rupture for type H was the largest, while type V was in the middle, and type O was the smallest. Conclusions This study provides an effective reference for further numerical analysis the cases and formulation of treatment plans.

Objective To explore the predictive value of immune inflammation combined with liver function hematological indicators for the metastasis of colorectal cancer. Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data of 133 patients with colorectal cancer was conducted. The patients were divided into three groups based on disease progression after 24 months of postoperative follow-up: non-metastasis group (n=38), liver metastasis group (n=43), and non-liver distant metastasis group (n=52). The immune inflammatory markers and liver function hematological indicators of progression-free survival were analyzed. Nomogram prediction models were constructed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses to identify risk factors for metastasis of colorectal cancer. The accuracy of the nomogram was validated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve, and the clinical predictive efficacy was evaluated through decision curve and clinical impact curve. Results Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that pan-immune-inflammatory value (PIV), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and bile acid (BA) were independent predictors of colorectal cancer metastasis. The area under the ROC curve of the combined prediction of metastasis was 0.84; neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and BA were independent predictors of liver metastasis from colorectal cancer. The area under the ROC curve of the combined prediction of liver metastasis was 0.83; PIV and PNI were independent predictive factors for the occurrence of non-liver distant metastasis from colorectal cancer. The area under the ROC curve for the combined prediction of non-liver distant metastasis was 0.83. The calibration curve, decision curve, and clinical impact curve showed that the three models had good accuracy and net benefit value. Conclusion The nomogram constructed based on immune inflammation and liver function hematological indicators can predict the metastasis of patients with colorectal cancer and has high predictive efficacy and clinical application prospects.
