Objective To investigate the feasibility of genetically modified X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) of rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) by isolating and cultivating rat ADSCs in vitro. Methods ADSCs were isolated from rat groin fat pads by collagenaseⅠdigestion under sterile condition. ADSCs were passaged and amplified with 10%FBS DMEM. The multi-differentiation potential of ADSCs was verified by cultivated with differentiation medium. XIAP expression plasmid was transfected into ADSCs. The anti-apoptotic ability of XIAP transduction was detect-ed by Western blotting assay. Results ADSCs were mainly spindle-shaped and whirlpool-shaped arranged. Results of flow cytometry showed that there were higher expressions of CD29, CD44, CD90 and CD105 in ADSCs, which differentiated into lipocytes, chondrocytes and osteoblasts under specific conditions. There is XIAP gene modified adipose-derived mesenchy-mal stem cells Band in the corresponding molecular mass of PVDF membrane area. Conclusion ADSCs were isolated from rat subcutaneous fat pads and were easily cultivated, passaged and amplified. ADSCs can differentiate into osteoblasts, chon-drocytes and adipocytes under specific conditions, which are better resource for being used in cell therapy and tissue engi-neering.

Objective To study the pathogenesis of upper gastrointestinal rehaemorrhagia after the transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt (TIPS) and its influencing factor.Methods Fifty postoperative patients with TIPS were selected.The patients were followed-up,and the effect of the various factors in the role of upper gastrointestinal rehaemorrhagia after TIPS was analyzed.Results The portal vein pressure of 50 patients with TIPS decreased from preoperative (39.8 ±9.2) cmH2O (1 cmH2O =0.098 kPa) to postoperative (25.2 ± 5.8) cmH2O,and there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05).Fourteen patients appeared upper gastrointestinal rehaemorrhagia after TIPS,which accounted for total of 28％ (14/50) and included 3 cases of postoperative vomiting blood within 3 days.Acute stomach mucosa lesions bleeding was considered,and bleeding was controlled within a short-term medical treatment (1 patient after more than a year in recurrent upper gastrointestinal rehaemorrhagia).Twelve cases of patients appeared upper gastrointestinal rehaemorrhagia within 2 years after TIPS,and the causes of rehaemorrhagia in 6 cases were esophageal variceal rehaemorrhagia,gastric and duodenal ulcer in 3 cases,erosive gastritis in 2 cases,coagulation abnormalities in 1 case.Esophageal variceal rehaemorrhagia rate was 12％ (6/50).Conclusions The main reasons of upper gastrointestinal rehaemorrhagia after TIPS are variceal rehaemorrhagia and non variceal rehaemorrhagia,both of which are important causes of rehaemorrhagia after TIPS.Variceal rehaemorrhagia after TIPS occurs more than 3 months,and non variceal rehaemorrhagia occurs within 3months,so it is very important to protect gastric mucosa with proton pump inhibitor in postoperative patients.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (OPCABG) in the patients who have left main coronary artery stenosis and three-vessel lesion with low ejection fraction.MethodsFrom January 2010 to December 2010,28 cases with low ejection fraction,left main coronary artery stenosis and three-vessel lesion and received OPCABG were analyzed retrospectively.All cases underwent OPCABG under general anesthesia.The Hb,PLT,ALT,AST,BUN and Cr count before and 3 days after operation were recorded.LVEF andLVEDbeforeand 3monthsafter operationwererecorded.Thedata were compared.Results one case died of respiratory failure caused by pulmonary infection.The mortality rate was 3.75 ％.The value of six parameters are: Hb ( [ 137.94 ± 19.40 ],[ 111.06 ± 12.71 ] g/L),PLT ( [ 210.43 ±48.26 ] × 109/L,[ 148.4 ± 52.20 ] × 109/L),ALT ( [ 27.66 ± 11.51 ] U/L,[ 29.02 ± 16.40 ] U/L),AST ([26.55 ± 10.12] U/L,[27.75 ±8.14] U/L),BUN([6.51 ± 1.00] mmol/L,[6.88 ± 2.53] mmol/L),Cr ([96.35 ± 15.25]μmol/L,[95.11 ± 24.38 ] μmol/L).Comparison of the values showed that Hgb and PLT were different significantly before and 3 days after operations.There was no significant difference in the levels of ALT,AST,BUN and Cr before and after the treatment.Three months later,LVEF and LVED were significantly different from that before treatment ( P ＜ 0.05 ),with LVEF of( [ 36.23 ± 3.41 ] ％,[ 47.23 ± 5.13 ] ％ ) and LVED of( [62.23 ±5.93]mm,[58.08 ±5.02] mm).ConclusionOPCABG produces a satisfactory outcome in the patients who have left main coronary artery stenosis and three-vessel lesion combined with low ejection fraction.There is limited impact of OPCABG on the other organs.The long-term effect and prognosis are still need to be followed-up and analyzed.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects of high volume zero-balanced ultraifltration (ZBUF) with different replacement lfuid in infant patients.
Methods: A total of 40 infant patients who received aortic coarctation with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest operation in our hospital from 2012-11 to 2014-02 were summarized. The patients were randomized into 2 groups, Group A, the patients had ZBUF with plasmalyte A, n=21 and Group B, the patients had ZBUF with modiifed replacement lfuid n=19. All patients received ZBUF (15-20) ml/kg during re-warming period until the temperature reached 34°C at rectum. Blood gas analysis were conducted at 4 time points as T1 (before CPB), T2 (open ascending aorta and 5 min after calcium perfusion), T3 (ifnishing ZBUF) and T4 (end of CPB). The intra-operative CPB time and the post-operative recovery with the complication were recorded in all patients.
Results: For blood gas analysis, the calcium concentration was higher in Group B than that in Group A at T3 time point, P<0.01 and the base excess was higher in Group A than that in Group B at T3 time point, P<0.05. Those indexes were similar at T1, T2 and T4, all P>0.05. The other indexes were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05 and the post-operative recovery was similar between 2 groups, P>0.05.
Conclusion: ZBUF with modiifed replacement lfuid could avoid decreased calcium concentration and acidosis, therefore, provide a relative stable homeostasis in infant patients.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of X-ray exposure on the release of soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-p75 (sTNFR-p75) in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in vitro.

METHODSEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to examine the levels of sTNFR-p75 in the supernatants of HepG2 cells before and after X-ray exposure. The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry and transmission electron microscope(TEM), and the morphological changes of the cells were examined under optical microscope and transmission electron microscope(TEM).

RESULTSX-ray exposure of the cells resulted in a strong increase of cell apoptosis (P<0.05) and sTNFR-p75 production in the cells as compared with the those before the exposure (P<0.01). Optical microscopy revealed apoptotic changes of HepG2 cell after the exposure, shown as cell shrinkage, spherical cell morphology, cytoplasmic and nuclear condensation. Apoptotic bodies were detected by TEM.

CONCLUSIONX-ray exposure induces HepG2 cells apoptosis by inhibiting the release of sTNFR-p75 into the supernatant.

Objective To investigate the cognition of the common cold and current situation of the treatment among physicians from various levels of hospitals in Chinese mainland,so as to provide evidence for future continuing medical education and rational medication.Methods A questionnaire designed for this survey was used to learn about the general information,cognitive degree of the common cold and prescription habits of physician who prescribed for cold within last three months,from various levels hospitals.Results A total of 1001 physicians were interviewed.Among them,749 physicians chose right options that the cold was the common cold and the influenza with 79.84％ in resident physicians and 56.76％ in chief physicians.A total of 745 physicians chose options that the course of common cold will be lasting 4 to 7 days; 895 physicians chose options that old people are the most susceptible for complication; 669 physicians thought the common cold was the most common infection in winter; 841 physicians used clinical methods to diagnose the common cold; 736 physicians thought although the cold was a kind of self-limited disease and symptomatic treatment could alleviate symptoms and improve life quality,patients should see doctor in time if it turns to severer; and 745 physicians held the opinion that treatment of the common cold should focus on relieving symptoms first. In addition, 61.60％ physicians had made prescription based on clinical symptoms; 505(54.24％ ) of them thought compound drugs were priority in treating the common cold.However,there were still 43 physicians prescribed antibiotics for common cold.Conclusions There is misunderstanding and discrepancy in cognition towards common cold and treatment among physicians from various levels of hospticals in mainland China.Physicians should standardize diagnosis and treatment for the common cold according to the domestic and foreign guidelines.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the feasibility of applying diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based arcuate fasciculus tractography and intraoperative arcuate fasciculus navigation for neurosurgery.

METHODSTotally 85 patients with interhemispheric tumors who had undergone intra-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and neuronavigation were divided into sinistrocerebral tumor (SCT) group (n = 55) and sham group (n = 30). All patients accepted routine MRI and DTI preoperatively. The results from both DTI-based arcuate fasciculus tractography and neuronavigation were applied to guide the surgery. All patients were followed up at 2-4 weeks and 3-6 months postoperatively.

RESULTSAll patients smoothly received the pre-operative DTI-based arcuate fasciculus tractography. The three dimensional arcuate fasciculus was successfully integrated with the neuronavigation and achieved microscope heads-up display. Long-term follow-up showed that there were only 4 patients suffered from persistent language dysfunction.

CONCLUSIONSThe combined application of DTI-based arcuate fasciculus tractography and intraoperative arcuate fasciculus navigation is feasible for guiding brain surgery. It can improve the surgical outcomes of intracranial tumor involving language functional area. The technology also maximizes the retention of language function and improves the post-operative quality of life.
