1.Exosomes are the pioneer of tumor in surviral advantage
Basic & Clinical Medicine 2017;37(8):1190-1194
Exosomes are secreted by living cells,which have the lipid bilayer and a large number of inclusions.We have found that exosomes derived from tumor cells play a crucial role in the development of tumor.Tumor-derived exosomes not only act as the messenger between tumor cells,but also perform as a carrier that affects the normal cells far away.Moreover,it has been reported to play positive role in the proliferation,differentiation,metastasis and immune resistance of tumor cells.

BACKGROUND:In the total hip arthroplasty, intravenous and topical tranexamic acid can significantly reduce the perioperative blood loss and blood transfusion rate, but at present, the clinical application of tranexamic acid is stil controversial. OBJECTIVE:Cochrane system evaluation method is applied on the efficacy and safety of intravenous combined with topical application versus single-dose intravenous application of tranexamic acid in the total hip arthroplasty. METHODS:We searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Ovid, EMBASE, CBM, Wanfang, VIP and CNKI database, from inception to July 2016 and retrieval of randomized control ed trials concerning intravenous combined with topical application and single dose intravenous application of tranexamic acid during total hip arthroplasty. Total blood loss, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative blood loss, blood transfusion rate, thrombosis, operation time, and length of hospital stay were analyzed by meta-analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) There were seven randomized control ed trials with 620 patients. (2) Meta-analysis results indicated that total blood loss, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative blood loss, and blood transfusion rate were significantly better in the combination group than in the single dose group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in thrombosis, operation time, and length of hospital stay between the two methods (P>0.05). (3) These results suggested that compared with the single dose of intravenous application, intravenous combined with topical application, can significantly reduce the loss of blood volume and blood transfusion rate and did not increase the rate of thrombosis.

OBJECTIVE:Anterior cervical decompression and fusion is a classic surgical method for the treatment of degenerative cervical spondylosis.The use of nail plates increases the fusion rate and stability and indirectly leads to adjacent vertebral degeneration and postoperative dysphagia.In this paper,the clinical results and complications of ROI-CTM self-locking system and traditional cage combined with screw-plate internal fixation in the treatment of degenerative cervical spondylosis were compared by meta-analysis to provide evidence-based support for the selection of internal fixation methods in anterior cervical decompression and fusion. METHODS:CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,and Embase databases were searched for Chinese and English literature on the application of ROI-CTM self-locking system and fusion cage combined with screw plate internal fixation in the treatment of degenerative cervical spondylosis.The retrieval time range was from inception to July 2023.Two researchers selected the literature strictly according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.The Cochrane bias risk tool was used to evaluate the quality of randomized controlled trials.Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the quality of cohort studies.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software.Outcome indicators included operation time,intraoperative blood loss,Japanese Orthopaedic Association score,Neck Disability Index,C2-C7 Cobb angle,fusion rate,incidence of adjacent vertebral degeneration,cage subsidence rate,and incidence of dysphagia. RESULTS:Thirteen articles were included,including eleven retrospective cohort studies and two randomized controlled trials,with 1 136 patients,569 in the ROI-C group,and 567 in the cage combined with the nail plate group.Meta-analysis results showed that the operation time(MD=-15.52,95%CI:-18.62 to-12.42,P<0.000 01)and intraoperative blood loss(MD=-24.53,95%CI:-32.46 to-16.61,P<0.000 01)in the ROI-C group and the fusion device combined with nail plate group.Postoperative adjacent segment degeneration rate(RR=0.40,95%CI:0.27-0.60,P<0.000 01)and postoperative total dysphagia rate(RR=0.18,95%CI:0.13-0.26),P<0.000 01)were statistically different.The two groups had no significant difference in Japanese Orthopaedic Association score,Neck Disability Index,C2-C7 Cobb angle,fusion rate,or cage subsidence rate(P≥0.05). CONCLUSION:Applying an ROI-CTM self-locking system and traditional cage combined with plate internal fixation in anterior cervical decompression and fusion can achieve satisfactory clinical results in treating degenerative cervical spondylosis.The operation of the ROI-CTM self-locking system is more straightforward.Compared with a cage combined with plate internal fixation,the ROI-CTM self-locking system can significantly reduce the operation time and intraoperative blood loss and has obvious advantages in reducing the incidence of postoperative dysphagia and adjacent segment degeneration.The ROI-CTM self-locking system is recommended for patients with skip cervical spondylosis and adjacent vertebral disease.However,given its possible high settlement rate,using a fusion cage combined with screw-plate internal fixation is still recommended for patients with degenerative cervical spondylosis with multiple segments and high-risk factors of fusion cage settlement,such as osteoporosis and vertebral endplate damage.
