BACKGROUND: With the bio-coated prosthesis implanted in the body by a complex interaction of chemo-mechanics, the cases of clinical revision increased.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research progress of effect of interaction of chemo-mechanics on the microstructure and properties of thermal-sprayed bioactive coatings.METHODS: The relevant articles were retrieved from Elsevier with the key words of "apatite, coating, spraying" in English between January 1999 to November 2009. Meanwhile, the relevant articles were searched from database of Vip Information with the key words of "apatite, coating, spraying" in Chinese between January 1989 to November 2009. The articles that were highly related to the effect of chemo-mechanics on the microstructure and properties of thermal-sprayed bio-coatings were collected. The repetitive researching results and those with weak correlation were excluded.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: It was shown that loading affected the dissolution of bio-coatings significantly. Tensile stress promoted the dissolution, while compressive stress inversely. In addition, the mechanical properties decreased after immersion in simulation body fluid. Moreover, the mechanical properties increased when it was implanted in bone tissue. However, there were only investigation of microstructure and properties of bio-coatings under simple loading. The coupling effect of complex loading, such as tension, torsion and fatigue, etc., and the specific chemical environment on the bio-coatings should be studied in order to ensure the integrity of its structure and properties.

Objective To investigate effects of complement C5a receptor and P38-MAPK on myocardial injury brought about by septic shock in rats. Method The early septic shock models were established by the method of cecal ligature and incision (CLI). A total of 30 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly( random number) divided into normal control group ( n = 6 ) and model group ( n = 24 ) and the model group was further 12 hours later divided into 12 h subgroup (n = 12) and 24 h subgroup (n = 12). The arterial blood samples were collected 12 hours later for detecting the levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK), and then the rats were sacrificed and the myocardial tissues were taken to assay the expressions of C5a receptor and P38-MAPK by using immunohistochemistry after HE staining. And the above procedure as did in 12 h subgroup was done 24 hours later. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of LDH and CK in rats of Model group were significantly higher (P ＜ 0. 05). There were significant differences in LDH and CK between 24 h subgroup and 12 h subgroup [(2 568.9 ± 280) vs. (2 201.2 ± 149)] and [(5 029.7±458) vs. (2 629.4±140)] ,P＜0. 05, P＜0.05. The analysis of C5aR and P38-MAPK gray values showed that there were significant differences between the model group and normal control group [(702.77 ±122) vs. (388.36±113)], P＜0. 05 and [(646.40±181) vs. (307.32 ±61)] ,P＜0.05,and those differences also found between the 24 h subgroup and 12 h subgroup. There was a significant positive correlation between C5aR and P38-MAPK (P＜0.05 ), and also the P38-MAPK had significant positive relationships with LDH(P＜0.05) and CK (P＜0.05). Conclusions The C5aR strongly potentiates the P38-MAPK to induce myocardial injury by septic shock.

Objective: To explore the impact of ticagrelor on myocardial microcirculation in patients of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 80 NSTEMI patients treated in our hospital from 2015-03 to 2015-12 were enrolled. All patients received coronary angiography (CAG) and PCI, they were randomly divided into 2 groups: ticagrelor (TA) group and clopidogrel (CA) group, n=40 in each group. The baseline condition, PCI related parameters, plasma levels of SOD, MDA at pre- and 24h, 72h post-PCI were compared, the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 30 days after PCI was also compared between 2 groups. Results: The baseline condition, proportion of infarction-related vessels, average length and diameter of implanted stents were similar between 2 groups, all P>0.05. Compared with CA group, TA group had the less post-operative CTFC in LAD and RCA, P<0.05; while CTFC in LCX was similar between 2 groups, P>0.05. The ratios of acute pre-operative, post-operative TIMI grade 3 and slow flow incidence were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05. The peak values of CK-MB and cTnI in TA group were lower than CA group, P<0.05. Compared with baseline condition, MDA levels at 24h and 72h post-operation were increased in both groups, all P<0.001; compared with CA group, TA group had the lower MDA level at 24h post-operation, P=0.023, MAD was further reduced at 72h post-operation in TA group, P=0.043. Compared with baseline condition, SOD levels at 24h and 72h post-operation were decreased in both groups, all P<0.001; compared with CA group, TA group had the higher SOD level at 24h post-operation, P=0.013, SOD was elevated at 72h post-operation in both groups, the elevation was more obvious in TA group, P=0.049. The incidence of MACE was similar between 2 groups within 30 days of PCI,. Conclusion: Ticagrelor could improve myocardial microcirculation in NSTEMI patients after PCI; it was safe and without obvious adverse effects.

Objective To investigate the appropriate method in diagnosing precursor lesions of pancreatic cancer and its treatment. Methods From Jan. 2006 to Dec. 2007, 92 cases were operated for pancreatic neoplasms. Among them 7 cases had pancreatic precursors. The mucinous cystic neoplasm was found in 1 case, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm(IPMN) in 2 cases, endocrine tumor in 1 case and pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) in 3 cases. CA19-9 level was tested by immunoflucence assay. All of the 7 patients were examined by CT. Endoscopic ultrasound(EUS) and endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography examinations were performed on 1 and 2 patients respectively. Results There was neither specific symptom related to these precursors nor any evidence of mass as revealed by CT or ultrasound. But dilatation and stricture of pancreatic duct were found in PanIN patients, and cystic dilatation of pancreatic duct in pancreatic head was present more in IPMN patients. For cystic neoplasms in pancreatic body and tail, they were commonly solid and isolated. CA19-9 level was slightly elevated in some patients but with no diagnostic value. Surgical resection was done with excellent result. Conclusion For the suspected pancreatic precursors, aggressive diagnostic approach and surgical resection will be the best option and can further prevent cancer development.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of cucurmosin (CUS) combined with the commonly used chemotherapeutic drugs for pancreatic cancer in clinical practice including Gemcitabine (GEM),Fluorouracil (5-FU),Paclitaxel (PTX) and Cisplatin (DDP) on cell proliferation of human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3.Mehtods Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay was used to detect the inhibition on the cell proliferation of BxPC-3 cells in vitro after the treatment of CUS combined with GEM,5-FU,PTX and DDP,respectively.Colony formation assay was also conducted and Jin' s formula was used to assess the synergistic effect of these combinations.Results The inhibition rate of CUS combined with GEM,5-FU,PTX and DDP were all higher than those of each drug alone (q ＞ 0.85),which became obvious in low concentrations.The colony formation inhibition rate of CUS combined with GEM,5-FU,PTX or DDP were all higher than each single drug treatment (q ＞ 1.15).Conclusion CUS could enhance the cell growth inhibition of GEM,5-FU,PTX and DDP in BxPC-3 cells in vitro with a good synergistic effect.

Objective To investigate risk factors of the prognosis of patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS).Methods From May 2012 to July 2014,17 cases of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University were treated.Clinical data including history of epidemiology,clinical manifestations,complications,physical examination and laboratory test results on admission and the third day after admission were retrospectively analyzed and compared with the death group and recovery group by application of Spearman correlation analysis.Results Elderly male patients with neuropsychiatric symptoms,or abnormal liver function,or abnormal blood clotting function had higher risk of the poor prognosis.In SFTS patients,AST,ALT was significantly increased,AST 539 U/L (229.73,545.4) U/L (r =0.597,P =0.015) was a risk factor affecting prognosis.Elevated blood ammonia indicated serious liver dysfunction and neurological dysfunction which were manifested as irritability,delirium,and trembling limbs.In SFTS patients,platelets were significantly decreased accompanied with mouth ulcers / bleeding gums,gastrointestinal bleeding.PLT 24.88 × 10 9/L-1 (12.75,35.00) ×10 9/L-1 (r=0.557,P=0.005) or APTT 86.06 s (66.88,114.18) (r=0.798,P=0.001) or D-dimmer 9.79 mg / L (4.09,16.51) mg/L (r =0.597,P =0.015) are risk factors affecting poor prognosis.Conclusions On the third days after admission,AST,WBC,PLT,APTT,Ddimmer are risk factors for prognosis of patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome infected by a novel bunyavirus.
