BACKGROUND: The repair of soft tissue defect is disturbing plastic surgeons for a long period of time. Each strategy has its own limitation. Adipe authoritative journals were included. Repetitive articles and Meta analysis articles were excluded. Finally 34 articles werose tissue engineering technique provides a novel resolving approach. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the research status of adipose tissue engineering and their defects, and to prospect the possible application in clinic. RETRIEVAL STRATEGY: A computer-based online search of Medline was undertaken to identify articles about adipose tissue construction published in English from January 1991 to July 2007 with the keywords "fat, tissue engineering". Meanwhile, we searched Chinese Journal Full-text Database for the Chinese articles dated from January 1991 to July 2007 with the same keywords in Chinese. 241 English and 101 Chinese articles were collected. The titles and abstracts were firstly read to select the articles about the construction of tissue-engineered adipose tissue, and 276 repetitive studies were excluded. LITERATURE EVALUATION: Sixty-six Chinese and English articles were selected for further analysis, and finally 30 articles were included. DATA SYNTHESIS: Cell types, scaffold, blood supply and microenvironment are factors for constructing tissue-engineered fat. Adipose tissue defect and insufficiency are two obstacles for the plastic surgeons for a long time. Autologous free fat transplantation is a common therapy, but its resorption limits the further application. Tissue engineering is a possible technique to resolve this problem. At present, the tissue-engineered construction of adipose tissue has become a study focus due to the great demand of plastic surgery. CONCLUSION: Graft remaining normal appearance and function for a long period of time can realize the application of tissue-engineered adipose tissue in clinic. Tissue-engineered adipose tissue is promising to resolve the problems like soft tissue defects in clinic.

Objective To investigate relationship of serum insulin like growth factors(IGFs) and catch up growth. Methods The model of rats intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) was built by clamping bilateral uterine arteries and veins of pregnant rats. The growth parameters (body weight and length), organs weights (brain, lungs and liver) and serum concentrations of IGF Ⅰ, Ⅱ of all neonatal rats was measured at birth and postnatal day 3 and day 5, respectively. Results (1)At birth, the serum levels of IGF Ⅰ, Ⅱ and the average growth parameters, organs weights in IUGR rats were significantly lower than those in control group( P 0.05). The serum of IGF Ⅱ in high catch up group was significantly higher than that at birth( P 0.05). Conclusion Both IGF Ⅰ, Ⅱmay play an important role in the regulation of catch up growth and the decrease of IGF Ⅰ, Ⅱlevels may be the internal factors contributing to the absence of postnatal catch up growth in IUGR rats.

Objective:To analyze the trend relevant factors leading to death and their patterns over a 10-year period in inpatients with connective tissue diseases (CTDs).Methods:All clinical data about death in inpatients with CTDs were retrospectively reviewed between 2005 and 2014 at the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology in Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.Results:In the 10-year time period,the overall hospital mortality was 15.689‰.The disease itself accounted for 44.71% of the total causes of death,infection accounted for 42.94%,and comorbidities accounted for 12.35%.The constituent ratio of deaths and the average hospital mortality caused by the disease itself declined gradually year by year,and the constituent ratio of deaths caused by infection and comorbidities increased gradually year by year (P<0.05).In 2013-2014,infection was the leading cause of death,which accounted for 51.06%.The survival time for CTDs inpatients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) was shorter than that of CTDs inpatients without ILD,and even the risk of death was 1.722 times of the latter.The proportion of deaths caused by the disease itself was the highest in systemic sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus,that by infection was the highest in idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM),and that by comorbidities was the highest in rheumatoid arthritis.Conclusion:The proportion of deaths and the hospital mortality in CTDs inpatients caused by the disease itself show a declining trend,while the proportion of deaths caused by infection and comorbidities increase.CTDs patients with ILD have shorter survival time and an increase in risk of death.

Objective To investigate the correlation between neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and disease activity of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE),and the changes of NLR in different organ involvement of SLE patients.Methods A total of 155 SLE patients and 135 healthy controls from the Rheumatology Department of Xiangya Hospital were enrolled in this study from 2010 to 2018.Patients with SLE were divided into lupus nephritis group (LN group) and non-lupus nephritis group (non-LN group),serositis group and non-serositis group,according to whether they had kidney involvement or serositis.According to the SLE disease activity index 2000(SLEDAI-2000),the patients were divided into mild to moderate disease activity group (SLEDAI score ＜ 15) and severe disease activity group (SLEDAI score≥ 15).The NLR values of the above groups were compared.Spearman's correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between NLR and SLE patients' laboratory indexes.Multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the relationship between NLR and SLE disease activity.Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the value of NLR in SLE diagnosis and activity assessment.Results (1)The NLR value of SLE patients was significantly higher than that of healthy control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).(2)The NLR value of SLE patients in the LN group was higher than that in the non-LN group,and the NLR value of SLE patients with serositis was higher than that in the group without serositis,with statistically significant differences (both P ＜ 0.05).(3)The NLR value of SLE patients in the severe disease activity group was higher than that in the mild and moderate disease activity group,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).(4)NLR of SLE patients was positively correlated with CRP (rs=0.188,P=0.019),SLEDAI score (rs=0.264,P=0.001),and negatively correlated with total serum protein (rs=-0.250,P=0.002) and serum albumin (rs=-0.329,P ＜ 0.001),respectively.(5) Multiple linear regression showed that NLR was independently associated with SLE disease activity (B=0.351,95％CI 0.012-0.690,t=2.047,P=0.042).(6) According to ROC curve,the optimal cut-off value of NLR for SLE diagnosis was 2.17 (sensitivity 60.0％,specificity 83.1％,AUC=0.744),and the best cut-off value for predicting the activity of severe disease activity in SLE patients was 3.28 (sensitivity 58.5％,specificity 78.1％,AUC=0.700).Conclusion NLR is closely related to renal involvement,serositis and disease activity in SLE patients,which indicates that NLR,as a new inflammatory indicator,is of great significance for the assessment of SLE disease activity and organ involvement.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the diagnosis, treatment and genetic characteristics of a neonate with severe pulmonary hypertension and respiratory failure. METHODS: Perinatal history, clinical manifestations, laboratory finding and diagnosis and treatment data of the child were collected. Whole exome sequencing was carried out for the child, and Sanger sequencing was used to verify the candidate variants. RESULTS: The female neonate has developed progressive respiratory failure and refractory pulmonary hypertension shortly after birth. Conventional treatment such as mechanical ventilation, vasoactive drugs, and inhaled nitric oxide were ineffective. She has developed sustained pulmonary hypertension after weaning from extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy, and had died after the treatment had ceased. Whole exome sequencing revealed that she has harbored a heterozygous de novo variant of c.682_683insGCGGCGGC (p.G234Rfs*148) of the FOXF1 gene, which was predicted as pathogenic based on guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), with evidence items of PVS1_Strong+PM2_Supporting+PS2. Based on her clinical manifestations and result of genetic testing, the child was diagnosed with alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of the pulmonary veins (ACD/MPV). CONCLUSION Discovery of the c.682_683insGCGGCGGC (p.G234 Rfs*148) variant of the FOXF1 gene has expanded the mutational spectrum of the FOXF1 gene, which has facilitated implementation of specific treatment and provided a basis for clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling.
