Chinese Journal of General Surgery 2009;24(5):383-386
Objective To explore the molecular mechanisms involved in liver regeneration after different cold ischemic (CI) times for the liver graft in 30% volume rat liver transplantation. Methods A model of 30% volume Lewis to lewis rat liver transplantation with hepatic artery reconstruction was established. Rats were grouped as follows: 1 h CI group (n =25), 8 h CI group (n =25) and 16h CI group (n = 25). Survival rate of rats in each group and liver regeneration were observed. Specimen were collected at predetermined intervals from 90 min, 1,4 and 7 d post-reperfusion. TNF-α and IL-6 expression, STAT3 activation were determined in liver grafts. Expression of cyclin D1 and hepatocyte replication with BrdU uptake were studied by immunohiatochemistry. Statistical analysis was used to compare BrdU positively stained hepatoeytes at 1 d post- reperfusion in each group. Results 30% liver transplantation was performed in a total of 75 rats. Compared with rats in 1 h CI group, TNF-α and IL-6 expression in 8 h CI and 16 h CI groups were markedly increased after 30% liver transplantation. STAT3 activity in 8 h CI and 16 h CI groups was significantly increased. Cyclin D1 expression in 8 CI group was demonstrated with cytoplasmic and nuclear staining. Grafts in 16 h CI group showed large areas with no cyclin D1 expression. Number of hepatoeytes with positively stained neclei in 1 h CI group was more than that in 8 h CI group at 1 d after transplantation (t = 6.14, P < 0.05). Conclusion Liver regeneration following 30% liver graft transplantation may be through TNF-α/IL-6/STAT3/ Cyclin D1/DNA synthesis pathways. The reason for 30% liver graft failure with significant cold ischemic injury is that hepatocytes may not respond to initiating signals for liver graft regeneration.

Objective To evaluate the feacibility of microalbumin(MA),alpha-1 -raicroglobulin (?1-MG) ,N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), retinol-binding protein (RBP)as predictors of outcome in critically ill patients. Methods A prospective study was underwent in 30 critically ill patients.Urinary samples were collected at ICU admission and on the third,seventh ICU day for MA,?1-MG,NAG,RBP measurement.The severity of illness was assessed by APACHE II score calculated on the first ICU day,and the degree of organ dysfunction was assessed using SOFA score calculated on the first,third,seventh ICU day. Results MA,?1-MG,the durations of ICU stay and mechanical ventilation,APACHE II score, SOFA score were relative factors of MODS and death in ICU. There was significant association of APACHE II with MA (r=0.397),?1-MG (r=0.448), and RBP (r= 0.465), respectively. The area under ROC curve of APACHE II score,SOFA score,MA,?1-MG, RBP,NAG to predicate the death in ICU were 0.875 ( P
3.Clinical application of varying drug-eluting stents for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction among Chinese population
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(52):10287-10290
BACKGROUND:Sirolimus and Paclitaxel-eluting stents are commonly used for clinical application.Sirolimus-eluting stent have been proved safely and effectively to treat acute myocardial infarction.However,the comparison between those two eluting stents has been less reported yet.OBJECTIVE:To compare the security and long-term efficacy between Sirolimus- and Paclitaxel-eluting stents to the treatment of ST-segment acute myocardial infarction via percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention.METHODS:A total of 354 patients with ST-segment acute myocardial infarction,including 259 males and 95 females,were administrated with Sirolimus- and Paclitaxel-eluting stents.All cases were randomly divided into Sirolimus-elutin9 stent group (n=213) and Paclitaxel-eluting stent group (n=141).Major adverse cardiovascular events were compared between the two groups during 1-year following up.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:One-year following up indicated that there was no significant difference in recurrent myocardial infarction (1.5% vs.1.5%) and cardiac death (2.5% vs.3.0%) between the two groups.Radiography showed that there was no significant difference in restenosis rate (5.0% vs.4.5%) between the two groups.Inner diameter lose was (0.19±0.34) mm in the Sirolimus-eluting stent group and (0.19±0.37) mm in the Paclitaxel-eluting stent group,and there was no significant difference.Additionally,there was also no significant difference in major adverse cardiovascular events between the two groups (8.9% vs.9.1%,P>0.05),suggesting that both Sirolimus-and Paclitaxel-eluting stents were safe and effective to the treatment of ST-segment acute myocardial infarction via percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention.
4.Repairing a bone defect model by using autogenous bone powder and implant materials
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2008;12(10):1987-1990
BACKGROUND: Sampling the autogenous bone always needs to develop the second operational area or harvest surrounding the implant, which will increase the risk of trauma and infection. Therefore autogenous bone powder may be taken into consideration to reclaim and use for the treatment of local bone defect.OBJECTIVE: To construct experimental models of repairing bone defect by autogenous bone powder and implant material, and observe the biocompatibility between materials and host.DESIGN: Single sample observation.SETTING: College of Stomatology, Dalian Medical University.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed at the Animal Experimental Center of Dalian Medical University from August 2005 to April 2006. Five healthy hybrid dogs were used in this study. Titanium nail and Bio-Oss bone implant materials were designed and produced by Xi'an Zhonghang Titanium Biological Materials Co., Ltd.METHODS: The first, second and third premolars of dogs were uprooted and received implantation 3 months later. Four implant sockets were prepared at left and right sides respectively of each dog, totally 40 sockets. One titanium nail was implanted into each socket, totally 40 nails. Autogenous bone powder collected when drilling hole, Bio-Oss implant materials and their mixture at 1:1 were implanted in artificial bone defect at bucca side, respectively, while non-implanted bone was served as blank control.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①At week 9, recovery of bone mass was recorded. Height of alveolar bone, density of bone trabecula and osseointegration were observed by X-ray film.②Histological change was determined by methylene blue-basic fuchsin method.RESULTS: No titanium nail fell off, so five dogs were all involved in the result analysis.①General condition and bone defect: At week 9 of implantation, wound was well healed, and the titanium nail was stable with total reserved rate of 100%. Compared with blank control, the bone defect mass was less in bones implanted with autogenous bone powder (P<0.01), and the least in bones implanted with mixed powder, which had optimal recovery.②Recovery of bone mass: X-ray film demonstrated that, 40 titanium nails were closely connected with bone, and the healing was well.③Biocompatibility between materials and host: All titanium nails were closely surrounded by erythroic compact bone, no blue soft tissues were seen between implant materials and bone, and direct bone interface appeared under low power lens.CONCLUSION: It is effective to repair bone defect by autogenous bone powder and implant material in dog models,good hiocompatibility is observed between materials and host.

China Oncology 2000;0(06):-
Purpose:To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of accessory breast tumors.Methods:Clinical and pathological data of 16 cases of accessory breast tumors were analyzed retrospectively. Results:There were 5 cases of accessory breast fibroadenoma, 2 cases of intraductal papilloma, 9 cases of accessory breast carcinoma. Local mass resection and radical resection were carried out respectively. All these patients had post operative chemotherapy and radiotherapy. 13 cases (81.3%0 were followed up for 1—10 year. As to results, 3 cases died of metastasis in 2,2.5 and 4 years respectively after operation;one case, reoperated because of local recurrence, still survives (over 3 years):and the others recovered well.Conclusions:It is possible for benign or malignant tumor to occur in the accessory breast,and the manifestation of the accessory breast tumors is similar to that of the primary breast tumor. Operation is the first choice for all treatment benign tumor with local mass resection including the whole accessory breast while accessory breast carcinoma should be treated by radical dissection.
7.Clinical and pathological analysis of primary malignant lymphoma of the breast
China Oncology 2000;0(06):-
Purpose: To investigate the diagnosis, pathological characteristics and treatment of primary malignant lymphoma of the breast (PMLB). Methods: Clinical and pathological data of 16 cases of PMLB were analyzed retrospectively. Results: No case was correctly diagnosed before operation. All the 12 cases were operated and identified by pathology, in which total mastectomy, radical mastectomy and modified radical mastectomy were carried out in 5, 3 and 4 patients respectively. Moreover, all cases were combined with post-operative chemotherapy or radiotherapy. 10 cases were followed up 1 - 10 years. 4 cases who survived 22 months on the average died of the tumor spread and metastasis during follows-up, and the others are still alive. Especially, 1 case, recurring 2 times locally, has survived for 4. 5 years after reoperation. Conclusions: The final diagnosis of this disease depends on the pathological examination. The majority of PMLB is non-Hodgkins lymphoma ( NHL), and mostly of B cell origin and are mostly related to the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue ( MALT). Total mastectomy or mastectomy plus axillary nodes dissection is the preferred method of operation and the adequate post-operative chemotherapy is very important.
8.The relationship between the food restriction and the formation of experimental 8astric ulcer
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(01):-
On the basis of Shay's ulcer model, we have studied the effects of food re. striction time on the experimental gastric ulcer in rats. The results indicat that each restricted group forms gastric ulcer after ligation of pylorus 18 hr. There are a postive correlation between the restricted time and the severity of gastric ulcer, and a negative correlation between the severity of gastric ulcer and the amount of gastric acid secretion. We suggested that Shay's ulcer model does not belong to peptic ulcer, but belonges to one of the stress ulcers. The restricted time may play an important role in the mechanism for this ulcer model.

Chinese Journal of General Surgery 1994;0(05):-
Objective To study the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (CLT), and the treatment of CLT companied with other thyroid diseases. Methods Clinical data of 63 cases of CLT were analyzed retrospectively. Results 26 cases were diagnosed by non-operative methods (11 cases by fine needle aspiration biopsy, FNAB). The rest of 37 cases were operated on because of misdiagnosis as other thyroid disease and then comfirmed as CLT by pathology. Of them, 2 were companied with nodular goiter, 6 with Graves' disease, 1 with thyroid adenoma and 2 with carcinoma, respectively. 19 cases were treated by thyroixine, 3 were not treated, 4 treated by operation after thyioxine managment and 37 were treated by operation. Non-operation group had rather satisfied effect in short-term period. 29 cases (78.4%) in operation group were followed up for 1 to 6 years, and 5 cases had hypothyroidism. Conclusions It is necessary to have complete serum immunologic examination and FNAB for suspect patients.They have to be examined carefully in order to avoid omitting complications and incsease the rate of diagnosis.Non-operative treatment is the major therapy of CLT. If CLT is companied with other thyroid disease, operation or non- operation should be adopted according to the pathological type.
