Objective Knowledge about the infiltration of macrophages in diabetic wounds can help to figure out the pathogene -sis of poor healing of diabetic wounds .The aim of this study was to observe the macrophage infiltration and the expression of relative in-flammatory factors during the wound healing of diabetic rats and explore the relationship between macrophages and diabetic wound heal -ing. Methods Male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into STZ induced diabetic group and normal control group .Each group had 15 rats.A 1 cm2 full-thickness skin defect was created on the rat dorsum .Wound samples and was excised .On post injury day (PID) 3, 7, and 14, rats of each group were sacrificed after wound samples and tissues around the wound edge were obtained .The differences of the wound closure rate , macrophage infiltration and the relative mRNA expression of the inflammatory factors from macro-phages were observed . Results The wound closure rate was lower in diabetic group on PID 3, 7, and 14 ([29.5 ±5.4]%vs [45.9 ± 12.8]%, [71.6 ±3.1]%vs [80.1 ±6.9]%, [93.9 ±2.8]%vs [99.4 ±1.4]%, P<0.05).HE staining showed inflammatory cells infil-diabetic wound tissue on PID 3 (P<0.05) and a higher expression on PID 14 (P<0.05).The CCR7 fluorescence staining showed more positive staining cells stayed in diabetic wound on PID 14. Conclusion Macrophage infiltration decreases in the early phase of diabetic wound healing and sustains in wound tissue in advanced stage accompanied by the expression change of related inflammatory factors, which could contribute to the difficult wound healing of diabetic rats .

Objective To discuss the clinical efficacy of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS)for bilateral bullous lung disease operation.Methods VATS procedures were performed on 120 patients with bilateral ballous lung disease.56 patients were operated in one-stage with traditional incision surgery.Results 120 patients were cured.The mean duration of chest drainage after surgery was 4.7 days.Postoperative complications occurred in 14 cases,including pulmonary edema,pneumothorax again respiratory failure and so on.The mean postoperative hospital stay was 14.5 days.The patients were followed up 1 to 60 months.Conclusion VATS is an effective and preferred method for bilateral bullous lung disease.compared with conventional open techniques for bilateral bullous lung disease,the advantages of VATS include shorter hospital stays,less postoperative pain and earlier return to work.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation of 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) with male testicular dysplasia. METHODS Clinical data of 8 infertile males with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-OHD was retrospectively analyzed. In addition, potential mutations of the CYP21A2 gene was detected. RESULTS All patients were referred because of azoospermia or severe oligospermia and had small testis with averaged testicular volume of 6.1 mL. Three patients had testicular adrenal rest tumors. Endocrinologic examinations revealed low levels of leutinizing hormone and follicular stimulating hormone, normal or elevated testosterone, elevated progesterone, elevated or normal adrenocoticotropic hormone, and low or normal cortisol. All patients had adrenal cortical hyperplasia, 5 with adrenal adenoma, 1 case associated with bilateral adrenal myelolipoma. All patients were given glucocorticoid replacement therapy for 3 to 6 months, which successfully improved the seminal status of 6 patient and resulted pregnancies in 5 couples. Seven pathogenic mutations of the CYP21A2 gene among the 8 patients. CONCLUSION 21-OHD can cause testicular hypoplasia and spermatogenic failure. Glucocorticoids and operations can obtain good result and improve spermatogenesis. Our results have shown a good genotype/phenotype correlation in these cases. All patients have carried the p.Ile172Asn mutation, which is associated with simple virilizing form.
