Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2000;0(08):-
Chest wall resection and reconstruction remains a severe challenge for reconstructive surgeons,which often leads to conservative treatment regimens in clinical practice,consequently resulting in poor outcomes(high morbidity and mortality).In recent 20 years,advances in muscle flap surgery and availability of chest reconstructive prosthesis have encouraged the surgeons to take an active attitude toward chest wall resection;many "unresectable" lesions now have a chance to be resected and cured.This article reviews the problems concerning the principles for chest wall resection,reconstruction,prosthesis selection,etc.in chest wall reconstruction.

Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 1982;0(01):-
The deepening of our understanding on the cardiac electrophysiology mechanism and the progress on cell transplantation technique have expanded our view in treating various kinds of cardiac diseases. Over the past few years literatures have reported many kinds of cell transplantation techniques for treating various types of bradyarrhythmias, such as complete heart block and sinoatrial node dysfunction, and impressive achievements have been made by far. This review discusses the advantages and flaws of the existing strategies and the future of biological pacemakers.

Surgical outcome of 188 patients with coronary artery disease was analized. 132 of them were male and 56 female (mean age 60 3 yrs).Fifty six patients had acute or post MI, 46 diabetes, 14 renal dysfunction, 26 stroke, 21 valve disease, 7 left ventricular aneurysm, and 1 type I dissecting aneurysm. Cardioplegia was used in 104 patients, intermittent aortic cross clamping in 59, OPCAB in 25, average number of graftings was 2 7 per patient. Concomitant procedures included 8 MVR or MVP, 4 AVR, 9 DVR and 1 Bentall′s procedure. Total early mortality was 5 9%, but the mortality decreased to 3 2% in 124 patients undergone CABG since Jan, 2000. Late death occurred in 2, recurrence of chest pain in 4 patients in 2 to 5 yrs postoperatively. Improved surgical techniques and perioperative management were the main factors reducing early mortality. Timing of operation, respiratory management, prevention of digestive track bleeding, and postoperative rehabilitation, should be emphasized.

Objective To elucidate the effect of ischemic preconditioning(IPC)on regional fluidity of myocardial cell membrane during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods Seventy-five felines were randomized into three groups: Group A (CPB group,n =25),in which CPB was conducted without aortic cross-clamping (ACC);Group B (IR group,n =25),with 60min ACC followed by 60min reperfusion,and cardioplegia used during period of ACC;Group C (IPC group,n =25),with protocol similar to that of group B except for three-cycle IPC applied before ACC. Electron spin resonance (ESR) technique was employed to monitor membrane regional fluidity of cardiomyocyte during CPB in all groups. Results Regional fluidity of myocardial cell membrane kept unchanged in CPB group and markedly decreased during ACC and reperfusion periods in IR group. Though the regional fluidity of myocardial cell membrane during ACC and reperfusion periods in IPC group was slightly decreased compared to CPB group,it was significantly higher than that in IR group. Conlusion IPC can protect myocardial cells from ischemia and reperfusion injury by maintaining the fluidity of myocardial membrane during CPB.

Background Age-related cataract is a common cause of blindness.However,its cause and pathogenic mechanism have not been fully understood.Recent studies revealed that aquaporin 1 (AQP1) and AQP0 are closely related to the pathogenesis of cataract.Objective This study was to investigate the differential distribution and expression of AQP0 and AQP1 in lenses with age-related cataract and explore its effect on pathogenesis of age-related cataract.Methods Seventeen anterior capsular membrane samples and nucleus samples of lenses were collected from age-related cataract patients during the small incision nonphacoemulsification cataract extraction,and 6 normal lens samples were obtained from health donors in the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University.The expression and distribution of AQP1 and AQP0 in the lenses were detected by immunohistochemistry,and the relative expression levels of AQP1 and AQP0 proteins in the lenses were assayed by using Western blot assay.This study protocol was approved by Ethic Committee of this hospital,and written informed consent was obtained from each patient.Results Immunohistochemistry showed that in the normal lenses,AQP1 expressed mainly in LECs;while AQP0 primarily expressed in fiber cells of the lens cortex and nucleus.The relative expression levels of AQP1 and AQP0 in the lenses with age-related cataract (absorbance) were 0.223±0.008 and 0.118±0.015,which were significantly lower than 0.246±0.007 and 0.149±0.007 in the normal lenses (t =-4.508,-3.291,both at P<0.01).Western blot revealed that the relative expression levels of AQP1 and AQP0 in the lenses with age-related cataract (absorbance) were 0.663 ± 0.012 and 0.599 ± 0.015,which were significantly reduced in comparison with 0.844±0.041 and 0.955 ±0.064 in the normal lenses (t =-7.492,P<0.05;t =-9.570,P<0.01).Conclusions AQP1 and AQP0 distribute in different sites of lenses.The expressions of AQP1 and AQP0 are obviously down-regulated in lenses with age-related cataract,suggesting that AQP1 and AQP0 probably play different roles in the pathogenesis of age-related cataract.

Objective To design and prepare a new prosthesis of chest wall by selecting and integrating the appropriate biodegradable materials,and to evaluate the efficiency and safety of the prepared prosthesis in order to explore the feasibility of reconstruction of an extensive chest wall defect.Methods Three types of chest wall prostheses,polydioxanone(PDO)mesh,chitin fiber reinforced polycaprolactone(CFRP)plate and CFRP strip,were designed and prepared to fulfill the function of chest wall.A canine model of the chest wall resection and reconstruction was reproduced to evaluate these porstheses.15 adult mongrel dogs were subjected to extensive resection of anterior-lateral chest wall and reconstruction with chest wall prosthesis.Chest wall stability,the degradative process of the prosthetic materials and regeneration of the chest wall tissue postoperatively were recorded dynamically by macroscopic inspection and histopathologic examinations,so as to provide valuable scientific data for improving chest wall prosthesis.Results The implanted PDO mesh was well integrated with autogenous connective tissue 8 weeks after operation,degraded gradually and reabsorbed completely within 24 weeks.It provided adequate support to the chest wall and achieved satisfy cosmetic and functional repair.CFRP plate was the best in chest wall stabilization among the three groups,and paradoxical respiratory movement was efficiently relieved with CFRP rib,and it had a better biological compatibility.There was no obvious morphological change in the CFRP material after it was implanted for 24 weeks.Conclusion The synthetic prostheses developed here showed excellent biocompatibility,and they fulfilled the function in providing chest wall stabilization.Each prosthesis has its respective favorable properties in chest wall reconstruction,and all of them are valuable in clinic application in the management of complicated chest wall defects.
