1.Extracorporeal shock wave therapy for nonunion or delayed osseous union: Animal experiment and clinical follow-up
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2010;14(9):1625-1628
BACKGROUND:Extracorporeal shock wave (ESW) therapy is using principles of liquid-electric conversion and transfer to produce energy gradient difference and torsional tension in tissues with varied density.It is a matured technique in treating urinary and digestive system calculosis.However,the applications of ESW in treating nonunion or delayed osseous union are few.OBJECTIVE:To explore the therapeutic effects of ESW in treating nonunion or delayed osseous union by animal experiment and clinical verification.METHODS:The effect of ESW on periosteal metabolism was explored by focusing extracorporeal wave on bone tissues,and the autoradiography of H~(3-)TdR labeling rate was observed by animal experiment.ESW was used to treat nonunion patients (n=16) or delayed osseous union patients (n=16),and the follow-uP results were evaluated.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:By autoradiography,the H~(3-)TdR labeling rate was greater in the experimental sides than that of the control sides at 1 and 2 weeks after operation (P<0.05-0.01),which confirmed that the mitotic activity of periosteal osteoblasts was increased,namely,endosteal osteogenesis was enhanced.Clinical verification results demonstrated that,at 16 weeks after operation,16 patients with delayed union were all cured,13 were cured among the 16 cases of nonunion,and the remained 3 cases had notably callus formation.No adverse events occurred in all cases.The results suggested that it is reliable to treat nonunion or delayed osseous union using ESW therapy.

4.Disease burden and pathological characteristics of hepatic fibrosis induced by parasite infection
China Tropical Medicine 2023;23(10):1058-
Abstract: Parasites such as schistosome, liver fluke, and echinococcus mainly parasitize or cause diseases in the liver, and liver fibrosis is the main pathological feature and primary cause of morbidity and mortality of hosts after infection. The liver fibrosis caused by these parasites still has a heavy disease burden in the world, and due to its unique disease characteristics, the animal model of liver fibrosis caused by parasites has a unique position in the study of liver fibrosis. The essential distinguishing feature of parasitic infection-induced hepatic fibrosis from other types of hepatic fibrosis is the variety of parasitic-secreted molecules initiating fibrosis, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, metabolic small molecules and other types. These molecules induce the formation of type 2 immunity or inflammatory microenvironment in the host liver. Although in-depth research has been conducted on the initiation, maintenance, and regression of type 2 immunity in the liver after parasitic infection, many core mechanisms remain unclear. Chronic inflammation ultimately activates stellate cells and other types of cells to differentiate into myofibroblasts (MF), thus promoting the formation of liver fibrosis. After clearing parasites, MF may undergo reverse differentiation, apoptosis or senescence, and liver fibers may undergo reversal. Deep research on the activation and regression of MF is the foundation for effective prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis. This article reviews the disease burden and pathological characteristics of liver fibrosis caused by parasite infection.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the materials and selection of esophageal stents, and to discuss the application of covered stants in treating esophageal malignant stenosis.METHODS: CNKI and Medline databases were retrieved by computer for papers published from 1980 to 2009 with search terms of "esophageal carcinoma, esophageal stenosis, esophageal stent, and fabric-covered metallic stent". The language was limited for Chinese and English. A total of 61 iteratures were initial searched by computer, according to inclusive and exclusive criteria, 29 literatures were selected by the first author. Problems including esophageal stent category, material selection, as well as application of covered stents in treating esophageal malignant stenosis were reviewed and summarized.RESULTS: Totally 29 literatures were included in this paper. No concealed allocation or blinding method was described in the literatures. According to preparing materials, the stents could be divided into stainless metal stent, memory metallic stent and polyester plastic stent. As tissue-engineered materials, stents could be assigned into biodegradable polymer matrix stent and non-degradable biodegradable polymers stent. Each material stent possesses distinct advantage and disadvantage. The covered stents could relief esophageal stenosis effectively, interrupt tumor growth, and prevent restenosis. CONCLUSION: As a palliative therapy for treating esophageal malignant stenosis, covered stents can elevate patients' life quality and prolong survival times.

10.Progresses of diagnosis and therapy in multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency
International Journal of Pediatrics 2010;37(5):518-521
Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) is a common inborn error of fatty-acid metabolism characterized by vomiting, acidosis and lipid storage myopathy, and the clinical manifestations of MADD are highly heterogeneous. MADD can be diagnosed by the elevation of multiple acyl-carnitine in blood and glutaric acid or other organic acid in urine. The neonatal-onset patients have severe symptoms and poor prognosis. However, oral riboflavin supplementation (can completely rescue) ameliorate the clinical and laboratory disorders rapidly especially to the riboflavin responsive MADD. Additionally, patients not sensitive to riboflavin should also take low lipid, low protein and high carbonhydrate diet besides riboflavin.
