Bioartificial liver system has become an effective in vitro supportive treatment for hepatic failure patients. Bioreactor is an important ingredient of bioartificial liver, which provided a platform for the hepatocytes growth metabolism, substances exchange and immune isolation. The main cellulose semipermeable bioreactor comprises fiat membrane bioreactor and hollow fiber bioreactor, and the main types of semipermeable membranes contain mixed cellulose ester membrane, cellulose acetate membrane, cuprophan membrane, PVDF membrane, as well as poly(ethylene terephthalate) membrane.CONCLUSION: As a dynamic system, the optimal of control system in bioreactor is conductive to regulating mass transfer and establishing bionic physical or chemical gradients, which can implement the construction of hepatocyte with smallest unit. The selection of membrane is the key link in bioreactor construction of bioartificial liver system

Objective To determine the expression of c-myc and CD24 in colorectal carcinoma,colo-rectal polyp and normal mucosa,and to explore the role and correlation of them in the carcinogenesis of colorec-tal carcinoma. Methods The expression of c-myc and CD24 in colorectal carcinoma(n = 60),colorectal ade-nomatous polyp(n = 45),colorectal hyperplastic polyp(n = 15)and the adjacent non-cancerous tissue(n =30)was observed by immunohistochemical assay. Results The positive rate of c-myc in colorectal carcinoma were 73. 3% ,significantly higher than that in colorectal adenomatous polyp 44. 4%( χ2 = 9. 016 8,P <0. 01),colorectal hyperplastic polyp 13. 3%(χ2 = 18. 215 9,P < 0. 01)and adjacent non-cancerous tissue 6. 7%(χ2 = 25. 133 0,P < 0. 01);the positive rate of CD24 in colorectal carcinoma was 76. 7% ,significantly higher than that in colorectal hyperplastic polyp 6. 7%(χ2 = 25. 133 0,P < 0. 01)and adjacent non-cancerous tissue 3. 3%(χ2 = 43. 107 4,P < 0. 01). c-myc expression in colon cancer was significantly correlated with cancer site(χ2 = 8. 352 3,P < 0. 01),lymph node metastasis(χ2 = 4. 275 1,P < 0. 05),differentiation (χ2 = 4. 115 3,P < 0. 05)and TNM stage(χ2 = 5. 739 9,P < 0. 05). CD24 expression in colon cancer was significantly correlated with cancer size(χ2 = 9. 333 6,P < 0. 01),lymph node metastasis(χ2 = 7. 693 0,P <0. 01),differentiation(χ2 = 5. 870 0,P < 0. 05)and TNM stage(χ2 = 4. 498 7,P < 0. 05). There was a pos-itive correlation relationship between CD24 and c-myc in colorectal carcinoma tissue(χ2 = 10. 824 9,r = 0. 39, P < 0. 05). Conclusion The expression of c-myc and CD24 are high in colorectal cancer,having a significant correlation with some of the clinicaopathological features. c-myc is likely to act as a downstream target gene of CD24 signaling pathway,whose expression is probably regulated by CD24 in colorectal carcinoma tissue.

The rapid mutation and widely spread of duck hepatitis A virus (DHAV) lead to the vast economic loss of the duck industry. To prepare and evaluate bivalent inactivated vaccine laboratory products of DHAV, 6 strains were screened from 201 DHAV-1 strains and 38 DHAV-3 strains by using serotype epidemiological analysis in most of the duck factory. Vaccine candidate strains were selected by ELD50 and LD50 tests in the 6 strains. Continuously passaged, the 5th passaged duck embryos bodies grinding fluid was selected as vaccine virus seeds. The virus seeds were treated with formaldehyde and water in oil in water (W/O/W) emulsions, making into three batches of two bivalent inactivated vaccine laboratory products. The safety test, antibody neutralization test, challenged protection and cross immune protection experiment suggested that the vaccines possessed good safety, and neutralizing antibodies were detected at 7th day and the challenged protection rate reached 90% to 100% at the 14th and 21st day. Moreover, immune duration of ducklings lasted more than five weeks. However, cross-immunity protection experiments with DHAV-SH and DHAV-FS only had 20%-30%. The two bivalent inactivated vaccine laboratory products of duck viral hepatitis were effective and reliable, providing a new method as well as a new product for DHAV prevention and control.

Objective Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) refers to the systolic regurgitation of mitral valve secondary to compromised cardiac function or geometry abnormity with non-organic change of leaflets and ancillary parts of the valve.Severe aortic insufficiency (AI) with left ventricular dilation and dysfunction is clinically a complex heart disease and its postoperative complications and mortality are higher than usual valvular surgery.And such patients are often accompanied by FMR.It is generally acknowledged that FMR may improve after aortic valve replacement (AVR).This study follow up AI patients with left ventricular dilation and dysfunction and preoperative 2 + ＜ FMR ≤3 + to evaluate the outcome of FMR after AVR.Preoperative clinical data is assessed by regression analysis.Methods From January 2000 to April 2011,74 cases of patients were treated,who with severe aortic regurgitation combined with left ventricular dilation (left ventricle,LVEDD ≥ 70 mm) and dysfunction (left ventricle ejection fraction,LVEF ≤ 0.35) accompanied by 2 + ＜ FMR ≤3 +.Postoperative follow-up was performed.Calculation FMR preoperative/FMR postoperative ratio,the age,sex,weight,high blood pressure,ventricular arrhythmia,atrium fibrillation,LVEDD,LVEF,left atrium diameter(LAD),pulmonary artery pressure (PAH),mitral leaflet coaptation point and the mitral annular(CPMA).All factors for logistic multiple faotors regression analysis.Results The perioperative mortality rate was 8.1％.Average follow-up time was (14.9 ± 7.7) months and follow-up rate of 83.6％.5 patients died during follow-up.6 months after surgery,the average of FMR was 2.64 ± 1.17 (+),P ＞0.05 compared with preoperative data.LVEDD,LAD,CPMA,P ＞0.05 compared with the preoperative data.LVEF,PAH,both P ＜0.05 compared with preoperative data.3.Multiple regression analysis:FMR preoperative/FMR postoperative ratio is not correlated with age,gender,weight,LVEDD ≥75 mm,LVEF≤0.30,hypertension,ventricular arrhythmia and FMR postoperative improvement.However,PAH ≥50 mm Hg,LAD ≥50 mm,PAH ≥50 mm Hg,CPMA ≥ 15 mm,preoperative atrial fibrillation was negatively correlated with FMR postoperative improvement.Conclusion Severe AI with left ventricular dilation and dysfunction is a critical clinical heart disease and its postoperative complications and mortality were high.PAH ≥50 mm Hg,LAD ≥50 mm,PAH ≥50 mm Hg,CPMA ≥15 mm,preoperative atrial fibrillation was negatively correlated with FMR postoperative improvement.Since patients with 2 + ＜ FMR≤3 + usually do not improve or even worsen after AVR,those who have these above conditions preoperatively,should be treated on FMR during AVR.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical outcomes of anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion with cage under laparoscopic assistant.MethodsFrom January 2006 to June 2009,37 cases with degenerative low back pain were entered the study,including 22 males and 15 females with an average age of 43.7 years(range,16-55).The responsible discs were determined according to the three dimensional computed tomography of artery and vein angiography of anterior lumbosacral spine and discography,including L5S1 in 21 cases,L4-5 in 11,L3-4 in 2,L2-3 in 2,and L1-2 in 1.All cases underwent anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion with cage under laparoscopic.ResultsThe operation time was 100 min in average (range,60-140),the blood loss was 120 ml in average(range,50-300).There was no case with severe complications of retrograde ejaculation and injury of great vessels or nerves.Delayed intestinal obstruction was discovered in two intraperitoneal route patients.The average follow-up time was 18.7 months(range,6-35).According to the back pain grading criteria of Chinese Medical Association Orthopedics Society of Spine Group,the results were excellent in 23 patients,good in 11,and fair in 3.The interbody fusion was obtained in 3 months later in 23 cases and 6 months later in 12 cases.Cage subsidence occurred in 2 cases in 6months after operation,in which the height loss of intervertebral space was 1.3 mm and 1.9 mm,but no obvious symptoms of discomfort.No fixation displacement or loosening occurred.ConclusionThe anterior discectomy and interbody fusion by internal fixation with laparoscopic technique is feasible with low complications rate,less trauma and shorter bedtime.Postoperative ileus by abdominal approach is relatively common.The surgeons experience and the anatomy of artery and vein of anterior lumbosacral spine should be considered before the choice of surgical approach.

Objective To evaluate the analgesic effect of parecoxib in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA).Methods The study was a prospective,randomized and double-blind trial and was operated by the same group of surgeons in 101 patients with TKA and 105 patients with THA.According to analgesic protocol,the patients were divided into three groups:Group One ( intravenous injection with parecoxib),Group Two ( periarticular injection with parecoxib) and Group Three ( the control group).The postoperative visual analog scores (VAS),range of motion ( ROM),the ability of straight leg raising and the incidence of nausea and vomiting complications were examined and compared between the three groups.Results There were no significant differences in VAS (6,12,24,36,48,72 hours after operation),ROM ( 24 hours after operation) and the ability of straight leg raising between Group One and Group Two ( P ＞ 0.05 ),but all of them were significantly higher than those in Group Three ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Nausea,vomiting and other adverse effects did not significandy increase with the use of parecoxib.Conclusions Both intraoperative intravenous injection and periarticular injection with parecoxib have a good analgesia effect on TKA and THA,which are beneficial to the rapid recovery of joint function in patients.The simple and practical method provides an effective adjunct to a multimodal analgetic approach in improving the postoperative course of TKA and THA.
