BACKGROUND: After tissue-engineering products transplantation, angiogenesis played an important role in the function restoring of defective organs. The natural tissue-engineering materials had a wide application in tissue engineering due to its favorable biocompatibility and degradability, at the same time its pro-angiogenic function enhanced the achievement ratio of tissue-engineering products transplantation. Therefore, they attract much attention during recent years. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research status of incubating induced angiogenesis of tissue-engineered natural scaffold, so as to give some theoretical basis for further study on clinical application of natural tissue engineering materials. METHODS: Relevant literatures in PubMed and Springerlink published between January1995 and June 2009 were searched by compute with the key words of "tissue-engineering products, natural materials" in English. While relevant Chinese articles in CKNI published between January1999 and June 2007 were also searched with the key words of "tissue-engineering natural materials, collagen, chitosan, fibrin" in Chinese. After primary selection, inclusive articles were those about study and experimental study of induced angiogenesis of tissue-engineered natural scaffold. Exclusive criteria: repetitive and obsolescent articles. A total 35 literatures were finally analyzed in accordance with the criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The natural tissue engineering materials were synthesized by macromolecules out of normal tissue, whose multiple bioinformation provided signal for cells and benefited for cellular adhesion and maintenance. Collagen protein, fiber gel protein, and chitosan summarized in this study were beneficial for inducing angiogenesis but limited to mechanical characteristics. Therefore, to construct natural materials inducing angiogenesisis is prospect.

Objective To study the validity,reliability and sensitivity of the simplified Chinese version of modified Barthel index (MBI) in evaluation of activities of daily living(ADL) of Chinese stroke patients. Methods Forty Chinese stroke patients (26 males and 14 females,aged 59.65±11.68 years) participated in the study.The duration of the disease averaged 21.20±19.44 days.All the patients were evaluated for three times with MBI.Barthel Index (BI) and the motor component of Functional Independence Measure (M-FIM)independently by twophysiatrists.Spearman correlation coefficients between MBI and Barthel index (BI),between MBI and M-FIM were used to test the validity of MBI.Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were used to test both interrater and intra rater reliability of MBI.Sensitivity of MBl was analyzed with the Wilcoxon signed rank test and paired t-test.Results MBI was highly correlated with BI in each item and total score(r=0.816～1.000,P<0.01),and with M-FIM in total score(r=0.935～0.981,P<0.01).There were high reliability with MBI in the results collected by same assessor and different assessors(ICC=0.866～0.997).Furthermore,MBI was more sensitive than BI in majorities of its items and its total scores as well.Conclusions MBI has good validity and reliability as well as sensitivity in assessment of ADL of Chinese stroke patients.

BACKGROUND: Researches find that grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSP) can eliminate free radicals, protect heart against ischemia-reperfusion injury and enhance learning and memory abilities in experimental animal, but their effects on the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury remain unclear.OBJECTIVE: To study the protective effects of proanthocyanidins derived from grape seeds on the cerebral ischemic reperfused brain by measuring the total antioxidative capacity (T-AOC), nitric oxide synthase activities and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in brain tissue of mice.DESIGN: A completely randomized and controlled study.SETTING: Department of Pathophysiology and Functional Central Laboratory, Jinzhou Medical College; Department of Neurology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted in the Department of Functional Central Laboratory, Jinzhou Medical College from March to August 2004. Forty Kunming mice, provided by the Experimental Animal Center, Jinzhou Medical College, were randomly divided into five groups: sham control group, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (IR group) and cerebral ischemia-reperfusion treated with low or high dose of GSP or nimdipine (IR+GSP or IR+Nim) group with eight mice in each group.METHODS: ① Animal model establishment: The animals were anesthetized with ether. Then they were incised through median incision of the neck. The bilateral common carotid arteries were then occluded by microaneurysm clips for 30 minutes. After removing the clips, return of flow was visualized in the arteries. ② Model group and control group:The mice in low or high dose of GSP treated group or nimdipine treated group were injected GSP or nimdipine 10, 40, 2 mg/kg body mass respectively during the common carotid arteries occlusion and again at 24hours after reperfusion, while the mice in sham control group were injected the same volume distilled water with 40 mg/kg body mass. After 72-hour reperfusion, nitric oxide synthase activities, the total antioxidative capacity and MDA content in brain tissue of mice in each group were detected with chemical chromatometry. ③ The results were assessed by t test.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Nitric oxide synthase activities, the total antioxidative capacity and MDA content in brain tissue of mice in each group were detected.RESULTS: Data of forty Kunming mice was entered the results analysis without any loss. ① Total antioxidative capacity: Total antioxidative capacity in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group was obvious lower than that in the sham control group (t=8.145, P=0.000) while total antioxidative capacity in low or high dose of GSP treated group and nimdipine treated group was obvious higher than that in the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (t=6.313, 8.956, 4.14, P ＜ 0.01). ② Nitric oxide synthase activities: Nitric oxide synthase activities in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group was obvious higherthan that in the sham control group (t=12.541, P ＜ 0.01), while nitric oxide synthase activities in low or high dose of GSP treated group and nimdipine treated group was obvious lower than that in the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (t=2.231, 8.956, 7.260, P ＜ 0.05-0.01). ③ MDA content: MDA content in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group was obvious higher than that in the sham control group (t=7.883, P ＜ 0.01), while high dose of GSP treated group and nimdipine treated group was obvious lower than that in the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (t =5.234,4.518, P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: GSP exerted a protective effect on the cerebral ischemic reperfused brain by enhancing total antioxidative capacity and reducing lipid peroxidantion and nitric oxide synthase activities.

Objective To analyse the factors influencing the death of patients with aortic dissection (Stanford type A arota dissection) who underwent urgent surgery.Methods The clinical data of 197 patients with aortic dissection (Stanford type A arota dissection) treated with urgent surgery from the First Affiliate Hosiptal of Xinjiang Medical University were retrospectively analyzed between January 2009 and June 2015 in order to determine the factors influencing the early-mortality.Results Of them,23 patietns dead.In univariant analysis,the rate of mortality was 11.68％.The following factors at admission were independetly associated with early-mortality:hypertension,coronary atherosclerotic heart disease,LVEF ≤ 50％,time consumed for CPB ≥ 180 min,time required for cross-clamping aorta ≥ 120 min,Cr ≥ 130 μmol/L,rethoracotomy for hemostasis (P ＜0.05).The preoperative renal failure (Cr≥130 μmol/L) and time consumed for cross-clamping aorta ≥ 120 min were strongly associated with the early-mortality based on the logistic regression analyses.Conclusions The risk of aortic dissection surgery is very high,and it is mondatory to carefully evaluate the patient' s general condition and the indications during peroperative period,and to take active measures to shorten the time of clamping aorta and total operation time in order to reduce the risk of operation and increase the survival rate of patients.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of the early activity on preventing deep vein thrombosis after joint replacement. Methods A total of 90 patients who undergone skeleton and knee joint replacement from January 2014 to January 2015 were randomly divid-ed into the observation group and the control group (with 45 cases in each group)according to the random number table method.The control group were given routine nursing care to prevent thrombosis,while the observation group were given intervention nursing,namely implementa-tion of early activities.The related symptoms of deep venous thrombosis and D-dimer level of high blood coagulation state of plasma of the two groups were observed and compared before and after treatment.Results The symptoms of deep vein thrombosis of the observation group in the early postoperative period were less than that of the control group,and the difference was significant(P <0.05).The D-dimer level of the observation group was lower than that of the control group 7 days after the operation with a significant difference (P <0.05).Conclusion Systematic nursing intervention of early activities can significantly reduce the related symptoms of forming deep vein thrombosis after joint re-placement.In addition,it has an apparent effect on lowing the high blood coagulation state and preventing deep vein thrombosis.

BACKGROUND: Studies have confirmed that nerve growth factor can promote wound tissue to release al kinds of endogenous growth factors and growth factor receptors, which play a positive regulatory role. The nerve growth factor can promote cel proliferation and accelerate wound healing, thus making the wound healing developed from the passive waiting healing to active control healing. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of local application of nerve growth factor on the expressions of transforming growth factor β1 and basic fibroblast growth factor in rat burn wounds. METHODS: Twenty-four adult Sprague Dawley rats were used in the study, and Ⅱ degree deep burn wound was made on the back of rats. Then, these rats were randomly divided into four groups. After burn wound debridement, the wounds were covered with gauzes containing 1, 2.5 and 5 μg/mL nerve growth factor solution and normal saline respectively. At 3, 5, 9 and 14 days after treatment, the wound healing time and percentage of residual wound were observed. Then, wound tissues were cut for histological examination, in order to detect the expressions of transforming growth factor β1 and basic fibroblast growth factor in wounds, as wel as the cel ular DNA cycle. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The wound healing time in the treatment groups was shorter than that in the control group, especial y in 5 ug/mL nerve growth factor treatment group (P < 0.01), and the percentage of residual wound in the treatment groups was less than that in the control group. The histological examination showed the number of nucleated cells in the superficial dermis of the treatment groups was significant increased when compared with that in the control group; the expressions of transforming growth factor β1 and basic fibroblast growth factor in the treatment groups at different time points were stronger than those in the control group, and the expressions at 5 and 9 days were stronger than those at 3 and 14 days; percentage of cells in S phase of the treatment groups was significantly increased, especial y in 5 mg/L nerve growth factor group (P < 0.01). The results indicate that local application of nerve growth factor can accelerate wound healing by increasing the expressions of transforming growth factor β1 and basic fibroblast growth factor, stimulating mitosis and promoting proliferation.
