0.05). In the HBsAg stimulus group,the proliferation activity of CD4+ CD25- T cells from HBV transgenic mice was significantly lower than that in normal mice (P0.05). In all the 2 groups,the proliferation activity of CD4+ CD25- T cells alone from HBV transgenic mice or normal mice was significantly higher than that mixed culturing (P

Objective To investigate the impact of preoperative portal vein thrombosis (PPVT) on living donor liver transplantation (LDLT).Methods In this study,99 patients who underwent LDLT by the same surgical team of Tianjin First Centre Hospital from 2007 to 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether there was a PPVT,all the patients were divided into PPVT group (26 cases) and non-PPVT group (73 cases).The preoperative risk factors and the impact of PPVT on LDLT and outcomes were analyzed.Results Among 26 PPVT patients there were 23 cases in grade Ⅰ and 3 cases in grade Ⅱ.Splenectomy was found to be an independent risk factor for PPVT (x2 =10.211,P =0.001).PPVT prolonged the anhepatic phase (Z =-2.430,P =0.015),but the incidence of surical complications and mortality were no statistical differences between the PVT group and the non-PVT groups.Meanwhile,there was no statistical difference of 1-and 3-year survival rate between the two groups(x2 =0.505,P =0.477).Conclusions With proper intraoperative treatment and postoperative prevention,PPVT does not affect the outcomes of patients suffering from grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ PPVT.However,PPVT added to difficulties of operation,so the detailed preoperative evaluation and careful intraoperative operation is necessary.

Objective To assesses the value of the Pipkin fracture classification on the treatment and prognosis of Pipkin fracture. Methods A total of 71 patients with Pipkin fractures treated from January 2002 to January 2007 were followed up and the detailed information of 63 patients were obtained. The clinical and radiographic evaluation criteria of Thompson was employed to evaluate the outcome, analyze the results and discuss the correlation between Pipkin fracture type and prognosis and hence propose the significance of Pipkin classification on the prognosis. Results There was no statistical difference in aspect of the outcome between type Pipkin Ⅰ , Ⅱ injury and type Pipkin Ⅳ injury (types Pipkin Ⅰ and Ⅱ injury combined with minimum fracture, with fragment ＜ 1 cm,P＞0. 05). There showed statistical difference in outcome between types Pipkin Ⅰ , Ⅱ injury and type Pipkin Ⅳ injury (types Pipkin Ⅰ and Ⅱ injury combined with acetabular rim fracture, P ＜0. 05). Conclusions Pipkin fracture classification system needs a further improvement. The type Pipkin Ⅳ injury that is combined with types Pipkin Ⅰ , Ⅱ , Ⅲ injuries with minimum fracture (fragment ＜ 1 cm) of the acetabular rim should be incorporated into types Pipkin Ⅰ ,Ⅱ , Ⅲ injury. Type Pipkin Ⅳ injury refers to types Pipkin Ⅰ ,Ⅱ , Ⅲ injuries, with major fracture of the acetabular rim and the hip joint instability. In addition, the Pipkin fracture type involving the fracture line, femoral neck and intertrochanteric region is hard to treat clinically and has poor prognosis, suggesting that this type of injury should be considered as special type Pipkin Ⅲ injury.

[Objective] To explore the effects of rifampicin on cell morphology,intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS),reduced glutathione (GSH),and cell apoptosis in rotenone-induced differentiated pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells.[Methods] Rotenone was added in rat PC12 cells to develop a model of Parkinson's disease in vitro.Cell morphology was observed by microscope.Intracellular GSH was determined by a microplate reader.The intracellular ROS and the apoptosis rate were measured by flow cytometry.[Results] Compared with control group and rifampicin control group,GSH significantly decreased but ROS and apoptosis rate significantly increased in rotenone group.Compared with rotenone group,GSH significantly increased but ROS and apoptosis rate significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner in rifampicin control group (100,200,and 300 μmol/L).[Conclusion] Rifampicin may reduce the damage of rotenone-induced differentiated PC12 cells through inhibiting oxidative injury in a dose-dependent manner.

ObjectiveTo study the impact of allocation of organ arteries and their reconstruction for donor livers on arterial complications after liver transplantation from organ clusters obtained by combined liver,kidney,pancreas and duodenum harvesting.The aim is to guide future use of donor organs more safely and rationally with a decrease in postoperative complications.MethodWe studied 11 patients.ResultsThere was no hepatic artery anomaly.A Carrol artery patch was obtained at the bifurcation of the proper hepatic artery and the gastroduodenal artery in these donor livers.In one patient,an arterial graft was used because of inadequate arterial length,and arterial thrombosis developed which required re-transplantation.The hepatic arterial reconstruction was successful for the remaining 10 patients.One patient died of pulmonary infection 5 months post transplantation.ConclusionWhen combined liver,kidney,pancreas and duodenum harvesting was used,enough arterial length of the recipient must be preserved.There should be adequate and prompt communication between the teams carrying out the donor operation and the recipient operation.A Carrol arterial patch of the proper hepatic artery and the gastroduodenal artery for the donor liver,and the use of microsurgical vascular anastomosis in the operation are the keys to prevent hepatic arterial complications after liver transplantation.Multi-organ harvesting can be used for obtaining donor livers in liver transplantation.

ObjectiveTo investigate prophylaxis and treatment of bile leakage from hepatic duct anomalies after liver transplantation.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 3 patients with bile leakage from hepatic duct anomalies after liver transplantation in our institute.The graft procurements were combined liver-kidney harvesting.The reconstruction of the bile ducts was end-to-end anastomoses.ResultsIn the first patient with a right accessory duct joining the cystic duct,leakage of bile came from the stump of the cystic duct after anastomosis of the bile ducts.The original anastomosis was taken down,and reanastomosis was performed after plasty of the bile ducts.The patient recovered uneventfully.In the second patient with a Luschka bile duct,the biliary fistula closed spontaneously after percutaneous drainage.However,re-transplantation was performed for severe infection 7 month after the primary transplantation.In the third patient with an accessory hepatic duct from the right posterior sector joining the common bile duct,the bile duct stump which we missed leaked bile.Re-transplantation was performed because of severe complications.Conclusion Understanding the anatomy of intra- and extra-hepatic bile ducts and their common anomalies identifying the structures in the porta hepatis during preparation of the liver grafts,and looking for possible accessory hepatic ducts and aberrant bile ducts are important steps to prevent bile leakage in liver transplantation.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the application effect of PDCA circulation method in clinical pharmaceutical care. METHODS:According to the method of PDCA cycle,clinical pharmaceutical care quality and satisfaction degree of physicians, nurses and patients in 2013 were investigated to find out the problems;the reasons were analyzed and countermeasures were made out,checked and implemented. Finally,the quality of clinical pharmaceutical care,the medical staff and patient's satisfaction with clinical pharmaceutical care were compared before and after the implementation of PDCA circulation. RESULTS:Due to the poor quality of clinical pharmaceutical care and low satisfactory degree of our hospital,we formulated related countermeasures,such as enhancing the medication service skill of clinical pharmacists in obstetrics and gynecology department,extending the coverage of pharmaceutical ward round,developing the pharmaceutical care for patients with high risk pregnancy or underwent assisted repro-duction,strengthening communication and propaganda of medical staff and patients. After the implementation of countermeasures, the quality indicators of clinical pharmaceutical care were improved in 2014,compared to 2013,such as the number of patients in-cluded in pharmaceutical ward round increased from 445 to 1 780;total number of reasonable medication intervention suggestion in-creased from 14 to 29;that of pharmaceutical consultation increased from 8 to 23;the satisfaction degree of medical staff and pa-tients improved from 55.93% and 45.95% to 100% and 92.10%,respectively. CONCLUSIONS:PDCA circulation can significant-ly improve the quality of clinical pharmaceutical care and satisfactory degree of our hospital,and promote pharmaceutical care of our hospital.

AIM:To investigate the effects of osteogenic induction media and the medias containing different concentration of calcium on the induction of osteogenic differentiation of human renal fibroblasts in vitro.METHODS: Culturedhuman renal fibroblasts were divided into 5 groups in this experiment: osteogenic induction group (osteogenic inductionmedia), CaⅠgroup (0.5 mmol/L Ca2 + media), CaⅡgroup (1.5 mmol/L Ca2 + media), Ca Ⅲ group (2.5 mmol/LCa2 + media) and control group (PBS).The cell activity in each groups was measured by MTT assay .At 9th day, the cellcalcium Alizarin red S staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) Gomori calcium cobalt staining were performed respectivelyto observe the formation of calcium nidus and the expression of ALP .In addition, the expression of Runt-related transcriptionfactor 2 (Runx2) at mRNA and protein levels was determined by real -time PCR and Western blot, respectively.RE- SULTS: The remarkable positive signs which represented the formation of calcium nidus and the deposit of calcium objectsin all experiment groups were observed .The mRNA and protein expression of Runx2 in osteogenic induction group increasedin accordance with the induction time .Compared with control group, the mRNA and protein expression of Runx2 inthe CaⅠ ~Ⅲ groups increased gradually in a calcium concentration dependent manner at the 9th induction day.CON- CLUSION: Human renal interstitial fibroblasts show the potential activity in osteogenic differentiation induced by osteogen -ic induction media or high level calcium in vitro, which may be account for the cytological formation of the Randall ’splaque in the kidney.
