Objective To observe whether dermal multipotent stem cells (dMSCs) treated with platelet-derived growth factor-AA ( PDGF-AA )could distribute more frequently to the bone marrow in rats of total body irradiation (TBI).Methods Male dMSCs were isolated and 10 μg/L PDGF-AA was added to the culture medium and further cultured for 2 h.Then the expression of tenascin-C were examined by Western blot, and the migration ability of dMSCs was assessed in transwell chamber.The pre-treated dMSCs were transplanted by tail vein injection into female rats administered with total body irradiation, and 2 weeks after transplantation, real-time PCR was employed to measure the amount of dMSCs in bone marrow.Non-treated dMSCs served as control.Results PDGF-AA treatment increased the expression of tenascin-C in dMSCs, made (1.79 ± 0.13) × 105 cells migrate to the lower chamber under the effect of bone marrow extract, and distributed to bone marrow in TBI rats, significantly more than ( 1.24 ± 0.09) ×105 in non-treated dMSCs (t = 8.833, P < 0.0l ).Conclusions PDGF-AA treatment could enhance the migration ability of dMSCs and increase the amount of dMSCs in bone marrow of TBI rats after transplantation.

ObjectiveTo estimate the total effect size and the proportion of contextual effect (PCE) of non-surgical treatments for rotator cuff injury. MethodsRandomized controlled trial (RCT) on non-surgical treatments for rotator cuff injuries was retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, CNKI, and Wanfang Data from the establishment to October, 2020. Two researchers conducted independent literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation, and used STATA 15.0 software for meta-analyses. ResultsForty studies involving 2 976 participants were included. The total PCE of pain was 0.61 (95% CI 0.54 to 0.69). PCE of treatments from the largest to the smallest were corticosteroid injection, extracorporeal shockwave therapy, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), manual therapy, hyaluronic acid injection therapy, platelet-rich plasma injection therapy, laser therapy, NSAIDs injection therapy, and acupuncture therapy. Total PCE for function and range of motion was 0.69 (95% CI 0.61 to 0.77) and 0.62 (95% CI 0.48 to 0.81), respectively. Blinding, studies in developed countries, and longer courses of treatment increased the PCE of pain. ConclusionUp to 61% of PCE for the non-surgical treatments for rotator cuff injuries means instable research. A higher proportion of PCE may be the cause of inconsistencies between clinical practice and clinical research conclusions.

【Objective】 To investigate the application of different ureteral length measurement methods in the indwelling of double-J stent. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 260 patients with double-J stent indwelling after ureteroscopic surgery during Jul.2018 and Dec.2020 were prospectively analyzed. The patients were randomly divided into height calculation group, CT measurement group, KUB group and ureteroscopic measurement group. The length of ureter was calculated accordingly and the appropriate length of double-J stent was selected. KUB was performed on the first day after operation and before extubation to determine the position of double-J stent. The patients completed the ureteral stent-related symptom questionnaire (USSQ), urinary symptom score, lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS) score, pain score, hematuria score, and quality of life score before and after double-J catheter placement. 【Results】 There were no significant differences in age, gender, height, side of stent and urinary symptom score among the four groups (P>0.05). The average lengths of the ureters measured by the four methods were (21.5±1.0) cm, (21.5±1.8) cm, (23.8±1.3) cm and (21.7±1.8) cm, respectively. There were no significant differences among the height calculation group, CT measurement group and ureteroscope group, but there was significant difference between the three groups and the KUB group. The ideal ureteral stent length indwelling ratio in the ureteroscopic group was 76.9%, which was better than that in the other three groups. Postoperative indwelling time was 7-42 d (mean 29.8 d). The USSQ score of the ureteroscopic group before extubation was (14.1±1.5), which was lower than that of the other three groups (P<0.05). The ureteroscopic group was better than the other three groups in the comparison of frequency and urgency of urination, nocturia, hematuria, quality of life score, and pain score (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Intraoperative ureteroscopic measurement of the ureteral length is a simple and feasible method in guiding the indwelling of double-J stent to reduce ureteral stent related symptoms.
