BACKGROUND:Donor selection for high-risk acute leukemia is still controversial.OBJECTIVE:To compare the therapeutic efficacy of the unrelated donor peripheral blood and matched sibling allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for high-risk acute leukemia.METHODS:Total 65 patients with high-risk acute leukemia treated during January 2008 to January 2016 were included,in which 30 patients chose the unrelated donor peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (UD), and other 35 chose the matched sibling allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (MS) according to the wishes of patients and their own situation. After treatment, the chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis method, and other methods were used to compare the implanted and hematopoietic reconstitution, the occurrence of graft-versus-host disease, relapse mortality and long-term survival between the two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The implantation rate, platelet hematopoietic reconstitution time, the incidence of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease, and its type exhibited no significant differences between the two groups (P > 0.05).The relapse rate, total death rate, and transplant-related mortality rates were 10.0%, 50.0%, and 40.0% in the UD group and 20.0%, 48.6%, and 25.7% in the MS groups, respectively, and the intergroup difference was insignificant (P > 0.05).The expected 2-year cumulative disease-free free survival and overall survival rates were (49.4±9.2)% and (52.6±9.2)% in the UD group and (53.9±8.5)% and (53.9±8.5)% in the MS group, respectively, and the intergroup difference was also insignificant (P > 0.05). Our experimental findings show that unrelated donor peripheral blood stem cell transplantation can be used as an effective alternative in the absence of sibling donors.

BACKGROUND: The degradation speed of biological materials is critical for the clinical use of guided bone regeneration.The partial biological characteristics and treatment efficacy of concentrate growth factor (CGF) fibrin have been explored preliminarily, but its degradation properties have not yet been reported.OBJECTIVE: To explore the degradation properties of CGF fibrin and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in artificial saliva and compare the degradation speed of these two biological products.METHODS: Ten volunteers were selected, and 18 mL of venous blood from each volunteer was extracted and stored in two vacuum blood collectors. The blood samples were then placed into the drum of the Medifuge centrifugal acceleration machine, to separate CGF fibrin and PRF specimens following the preparation process, respectively. Both CGF fibrin and PRF specimens were respectively made into bulk and membranoid, and were then immersed in artificial saliva under 37 ℃. The mass of the bulk specimens and area of the membranoid specimens were measured regularly, and the degradation processes of CGF and PRF were recorded. The degradation curves were drawn to compare the degradation speed of CGF fibrin and PRF.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The mass of CGF fibrin and PRF showed no significant difference at the 5th day (P >0.05), while the mass of CGF fibrin was higher than that of PRF at the 3rd, 4th and 6th days (P < 0.05). The residual area of CRF was significantly larger than that of PRF at posttreatment 1-6 days (P < 0.05). To conclude, the degradation speed of bulk or membranoid CRF is slow than that of PRF in artificial saliva. The higher the fibrin content is, the slower the degradation ability is, indicating the strong bioreproductive function.

Objective To assess the safety and the curative effect of the combination of minipercutaneous nephrolithotomy (mini-PCNL) and ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URL) in the treatment of nonhydronephrotic staghorn calculi. Methods The clinical data of 53 eases with non-hydronephrotic staghom calculi treated by mini-PCNL combined with URL were retrospectively analyzed. Results Fifty-three cases (64 renal units) were performed first-stsge operation, 9 renal units were stone free in first-stage operation, 33 renal units were stone free in second-stage operation, other 13 renal units were stone free in third-stage operation. A complete stone clearance rate of 85.9%(55/64) was achieved, and after one to three sessions of mini-PCNL and extracorpereal shock wave lithotripsy afterwards that increased to 95.3% (61/64). Blood transfusion was performed in 3 cases, no major complication was noted in the patients. Conclusions The combination of mini-PCNL and URL has more advantages, less invasions, easier recovery and less complications. It provides a new minimally invasive way for non-hydronephrotic staghorn calculi.

Objective To study the chronic toxicity and its severity of a Chinese medicine, Anshen Bunao Liquid ( ABL) , in rats, provide the target organs and extent of reversibility of their adverse effects, determine its non-toxic dose, and to evaluate the safety of medication and provide reference for clinical trial dose and observation indexes.Methods Two hundred and forty healthy 6-week old Wistar rats ( male:female=1:1) were divided into low,middle, and high dose Anshen Bunao liquid groups (2.5, 5, 10 mL/kg),and solvent control group (distilled water 2 mL/100 g), with 60 rats in each group.The drug was orally administered to rats once a day and 6 days per week for 26 weeks.The general state, body mass and food intake were measured.By the end of 13 weeks, 26 weeks of experiment and 4-week recovery period after drug withdrawal, hematological and biochemical indexes were assayed, organ coefficients were determined, and histopathological observation was performed.Results Long-term continuous oral administration of Anshen Bunao liquid, the general state, behavior and gross appearance showed no significant abnormal changes.Compared with the control group, no significant differences in all checked items were found in the treatment groups.During 3 and 6 months, the size and location of organs,organ weight and organ coefficient had no obvious changes, with only non-significant increase of weight of some organs.All the organ coefficients of the animals in different groups were within normal range.Histopathology showed no obvious patho-logical and toxicological changes even in the high-dose drug treatment group, and no delayed toxicity occurred after with-drawal of drug administration.Conclusions The Chinese drug, Anshen Bunao liquid has no obvious toxicity and no de-layed toxicity after withdrawal of the drug in rats.It is expected that the planned dose in clinical use is a safe dose.

Objective: To elucidate the association between large conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (BK_Ca) in the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN) and sympathetic outflow in rats with chronic heart failure (CHF) . Methods: Male Wistar rats (6-7 weeks old) were randomized to sham operated group and CHF group (coronary artery ligation) . Two weeks after operation, BK_Ca inhibitor Iberiotoxin (IBTX) was infused into PVN by osmotic minipumps, rats were divided into following groups: sham+aCSF, CHF+aCSF, sham+low dose IBTX (0.125 nmol/nl) , CHF+low dose IBTX, sham+moderate dose IBTX (1.25 nmol/nl) , CHF+moderate dose IBTX, sham+ high dose IBTX (12.5 nmol/nl) , and CHF+high dose IBTX (n=6 each) . Additional rats were grouped as follows: sham+vehicle, sham+KCNMB4 knockdown (by rAAV2-KCNMB4 shRNA virus injection in PVN) , CHF+vehicle, CHF+ KCNMB4 knockdown group (n=6 each) . The cardiac function was determined by echocardiography, left ventricular hemodynamics were measured invasively, renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) was recorded at 6 weeks after coronary artery ligation or sham operation. The contents of norepinephrine (NE) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in plasma were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The protein and mRNA expression of KCNMB4 in PVN were measured by immunofluorescence staining, Western blot, and real-time PCR, mRNA expression of BK_Ca in PVN was detected by real-time PCR. Results: Compared with the sham operation group, the cardiac function of the heart failure group was significantly reduced (P<0.05) , and the plasma NE and the serum NT-proBNP were significantly elevated (P<0.05) . The protein and mRNA expression of KCNMB4 in PVN were obviously down-regulated in CHF rats (P<0.05) . After perfusion of IBTX or KCNMB4 knockdown by microinjection of rAAV2-KCNMB4 shRNA virus,right ventricular weight/body weight and lung weight/body weight ratio as well as left ventricular end-diastolic diameter were increased and left ventricular ejection fraction was decreased (all P<0.05) , the sympathetic driving indexes was increased in sham rats, changes of these parameters further aggravated in CHF rats (P<0.05) . KCNMB4 knockdown further downregulated protein expression in PVN of CHF rats. Conclusion Downregulation and blunted function of BK_Ca in PVN may contribute to sympathoexcitation and deterioration of cardiac function in rats with chronic heart failure.

Objective    To explore the therapeutic effects of different surgical strategies on women with mechanical valve dysfunction during pregnancy. Methods    A total of 11 patients with mechanical valve dysfunction during pregnancy who underwent surgeries in our hospital from 2007 to 2017 were retrospectively included. The average age was 27.5±3.7 years. The prognosis of patients was analyzed according to the gestational weeks, cardiac function and the severity of mechanical valve dysfunction. Results    No death occurred. Three of them suffered subtotal hysterectomy during the surgery because of uncontrolled bleeding, and the others recovered without complications. Among the 5 patients with pregnancies <28 weeks, 1 patient was found intrauterine death before hospital admission, 2 suffered fetal loss 5 days after the cardiac surgery, and the other 2 patients continued their gestations until deliveries. Among the other 6 patients with pregnancies >28 weeks, 1 fetus died because of intracranial hemorrhage, and the other 5 survived without embryopathy or foetopathy. Conclusion    Gestation week, cardiac function and severity of mechanical valve dysfunction may be taken into account when making a treatment regimen for women with dysfunctional valve prostheses during pregnancy.
