Objective To investigate the effect of placing subcutaneous drain tube and preseting triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture with delayed suturing to incision infection after typeⅢabdominal surgery. Methords Dividing 504 patients with typeⅢincisions undergone abdominal surgery into 3 groups. The number of group A patients with thoroughly incision washing and primary triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture after abdominal surgery was 143. The number of group B with closed anterior rectus sheath, opened skin and subcutaneous fat with preseted triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture was 190. The number of group C with subcutaneous drain tube after abdominal surgery was 171. We compared the incidence rates of incision infection and the second phase debridement suture rates among the 3 groups. Results For the group A, B, C, the number of incision infection people was 11, 4, 3 and the incision infection rate was 7.69%, 2.11%and 1.75%respectively. The difference of the 3 groups incision infection rate were statistically significant (P<0.05). The incision infection rate of the group B and group C were lower than that of group A and the difference were statistically significant (P<0.016 7). There were no significant differences in second phase debridement suture rates among the 3 groups. Conclusion Preseting triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture with delayed incision sutue and placing subcutaneous drain tube can decrease the incision infection rates for type Ⅲpatients after abdominal surgery, but can not decrease the second phase debridement suture rates of the infectious incision.

AIM: To study the expression of thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) and receptor-CD36, and investigate the relationship between tumor invasive capability and microvessel density and thrombospondin-1. METHODS: 43 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases were under investigation. Tissues from tumor, corresponding adjacent non-HCC tissue were stained with CD34 to show the MVD. TSP-1 and CD36 were examined by immunohistochemistry (SP) and RT-PCR. Relationship between clinical pathological features and above parameters was analyed. RESULTS: The staining of TSP-1 in HCC tissue is significantly lower than that in corresponding adjacent non-HCC tissue. Expression of TSP-1 was correlated to tumor thrombi, capsule, tumor invasive capability and CD36. CD36 was also correlated to tumor thrombi and tumor invasive capability. MVD was significantly higher in TSP-1, CD36 positive group than that in negative group. CONCLUSION: TSP-1 inhibits the growth, invasion and angiogenesis in HCC. TSP-1 may take effect through CD36.

Objective To explore whether endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) exerts therapeutic effects on rats with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).Methods Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin.Male SD rats were divided into normal control group(NC group), diabetic peripheral neuropathy group(DPN group), DPN+saline group(DPN+S group), and DPN+EPCs group.Sciatic nerve motor nerve conduction velocity(MNCV) was measured by a electromyography and trigger potentiometer instrument.Pathological changes were observed under optical microscope and electron microscope.Results Compared with normal control group [(52.91 ± 4.53) m/s], both DPN group and DPN+S group had slower sciatic nerve MNCV [(36.51 ± 6.30 and 25.37 ± 5.48) m/s, P＜0.01].Compared with DPN group, the MNCV of sciatic nerve in DPN + EPCs group had improved significantly [(36.51 ± 6.30 vs 46.20 ± 11.70) m/s, P ＜ 0.01].Sciatic nerve pathological changes, characterized by demyelination and axonal degeneration under light microscope and electron microscope were observed in DPN group, DPN+EPCs group, and DPN+S group.Compared with DPN+S group, the sciatic nerve pathological changes of DPN+EPCs group were alleviated.Conclusion After fed for 12 weeks, diabetic rats could progress to DPN rats.Transplantation of EPCs could improve MNCV, demyelination and axonal degeneration changes of sciatic nerver of the DPN rats.

Objective To dynamically monitor the changes of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets of renal transplant recipients and investigate the relationship between lymphocyte subsets with infection and rejection.Methods The clinical data of allogenic kidney transplantation recipients and living relative donors in the Department of Kidney Transplantation of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were prospectively collected from June 2015 to December 2016.The data of lymphocyte subsets and other related indexes were obtained from renal transplant recipients and relatives of the same period.Results Sixty-four cases of living-relative donors and 351 cases of renal transplant recipients were enrolled in this study,and the recipients were divided into 3 groups:infection group (67 cases),acute rejection group (46 cases),and stable group (238 cases),according to the diagnostic criteria.There was significant difference in the concentration distribution of lymphocytes between the stable group and the control group (P<0.05).The stable frequency distribution range of the stable group was as follows (cells/μL):Lym (1 000-1 500),T (<1 500),CD4+ (<1 000),CD8+ (<1 000),B (<300),NK (100-300),CD4+/CD8+ (0.5-1.0).The number of Lym,T,CD4+,CD8+,NK and B cells in the preoperative patients was less than that in the healthy population (P<0.05);The number of Lym,T,CD4+, CD8+,B and NK cells was gradually decreased in the postoperative infection group,which was less than that in the stable group (P<0.05).After treatment the indicators gradually restored to the level in the stable group level;the number of T,CD4+,CD8+,B cells was highly correlated with infection.The number of T and CD4+ cells,and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were significantly increased in acute rejection group as compared with the stable group,and gradually decreased after the rejection was reversed.The number of T,CD4+,CD8+ cells was highly correlated with rejection.Lymphocyte subsets had a predictive effect on infection and rejection of recipients,and CD4+ cell count and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were independent risk factors.Conclusion The monitoring of lymphocyte subsets has an important clinical value in the evaluation of immune status and individual treatment of renal recipients.

Objective To study the appearance of MR diffusion weighted imaging in early stages of cartilage degeneration and to detect its values. Methods In 20 goat left knees, intra- articular injection of 5 units of papain was performed causing a loss of cartilage proteoglycan. Twenty right knees were used as control group. MR diffusion weighted imaging was performed at 24 hours after intra-articular injection of papain. ADC of each part of articular cartilage was measured and compared with each other. The proteoglycan content was measured biochemically and histochemicaUy. Routine MRI and DWI were performed in 100 patients with osteoarthritis and 20 healthy people. The ADC of each interested part of articular cartilage was measured and compared with each other. Results In experimental control group, the ADCav of articular cartilage was (14.2±2.3)×10-4 mm2/s. In early stages of cartilage degeneration group, the ADCav of articular cartilage was (17.5±4.2) × 10-4 mm2/s. The ADCav of the control group was lower than that of the early stages of cartilage degeneration group (t = 2.709 ; P = 0.016) . The proteloglyean content of articular cartilage was 4.22×10<'6> μg/kg in control group, and 0.82×10<'6>μg/kg in experimental group at 24 hours after injection of papain. The difference between control group and experimental group was significant (t = 2.705, P = 0.018). In healthy people, the ADCav of articular cartilage was (7.6±2. 2) × 10-4 mm2/s. In osteoarthritis group, the ADCav of articular cartilage was (10.3±4. 2) × 10-4 mm2/s. The ADCav in the healthy group was significantly lower than that in the osteoarthritis group (t = 2.609, P = 0.014). Conclusion DWI is an useful method in detecting early stages of cartilage degeneration which can not be showed on routine sequences.

BACKGROUND: Donation after cardiac death (DCD) is becoming the main source of organs for transplantation. Donor and recipient gender may play an important role in preoperative evaluation and recipient selection of transplantation. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effect of donor and recipient gender on the recovery of renal function after DCD renal transplantation, and to further guide the selection of recipients. METHODS: The clinical data of recipients and donors of DCD kidney transplantation performed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2012 to March 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. According to donor and recipient gender, the donors and recipients were divided into four groups: group A (male donor, male recipient), group B (male donor, female recipient), group C (female donor, male recipient), group D (female donor, female recipient). The renal function of the recipients was recorded at 1 and 2 weeks, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively to compare the effect of donor and recipient gender on the recovery of renal function. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The serum creatinine level in the groups A and B was lower than that in the groups C and D at postoperative different time points, and there was a significant difference at 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively (P < 0.05). The estimated glomerular filtration rate in the groups A and B was significantly higher than that in the groups C and D at postoperative different time points (P < 0.05). The serum creatinine level in the group C was significantly higher than that in the other three groups at postoperative different time points (P < 0.05). The serum creatinine level in the group A was significantly higher than that in the group B at 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively (P < 0.05). The glomerular filtration rate in the group A was significantly higher than that in the group C at postoperative different time points (P < 0.05). The glomerular filtration rate in the group B was significantly higher than that in the group D at 12 months postoperatively (P < 0.05). These results suggest that the male donors show superior renal function to the female donors. The postoperative recovery of renal function is relatively slow when the male recipients receive a kidney of female donors. The female recipients with lower body surface area who receive the kidney of elderly male donors with poor renal function can achieve favorable clinical effects. Therefore, the gender should be used as a reference index for selecting potential recipients.

Objective To explore the mechanism of bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs)in the treatment of peripheral neuropathy of diabetic rats. Methods Rats with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN)were induced by streptozotocin(60 mg/kg). Male SD rats were divided into normal control group(NC group),DPN group, DPN+saline group(DPN+S group), and DPN+ EPCs group. Sciatic nerve motor nerve conduction velocity(MNCV)was measured. The expressions of NF-κB and myelin basic protein(MBP)in sciatic nerve were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with DPN group,the expression of NF-κB was reduced in the sciatic nerve of DPN+EPCs group,while the expression of NF-κB was increased in the sciatic nerve of DPN+ S group. There was no statistical difference in the expression of MBP between DPN and DPN+ EPCs groups. Compared with DPN+S group, the expression of MBP was higher in DPN+EPCs group. Conclusion Transplantation of EPCs inhibits the expression of NF-κB and increases the expression of MBP, which might be conducive to the repairs of nerve injury.
