ObjectiveTo analyze the dead reasons in treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) by emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (EPCI) during perioperation. Methods The clinical characteristics of the dead patients,results of EPCI and reasons of death were retrospectively analyzed in 473 patients with AMI who received EPCI treatment during March 2004 to March 2011. ResultsAmong the 18 cases(3.8%)dead patients,there were 8 case with three-vessel lesions,5 cases with two-vessel lesions, 2 cases with single vessel lesion and 3 cases with left main lesion. Nine patients were accompanied with hypertensions,5 cases with diabetes mellitus, 1 case with old myocardial infarction, 2 cases with old cerebral infarction, 1 case with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated by severe pneumonia, and 1 case with chronic renal insufficiency. Nine patients died of cardiogenic shocks , 4 cases (22. 2%) of heart ruptures, 2 cases (11.1%) of noreflow,1 case (5.6%) of massive hemorrhage of the upper alimentary tract, 1 case (5.6%) of respiratory failure and 1 cases (5.6%) of refractory ventricular fibrillation.ConclusionsPrimary reasons for perioperative death were cardiac shock and heart rupture in treatment of acute myocardial infarction by EPCI. Multi-vessel lesion, complications with hypertensions and diabetes mellitus may serve as succumbed factors of death.

Objective:To investigate the expressions and significance of tyrosine kinase receptor EphA2 and its ligand ephrinA1 in human malignant gliomas and their correlation with tumor angiogenesis. Methods:The expressions of EphA2, ephrinA1, and CD105-stained microvessel density (MVD) were detected via immunohistochemical assay in 62 glioma tissues and 8 normal brain tissues. The correlation between EphA2 and ephrinA1 expression and microvessel counts in the glioma tissues were assessed. Results:Immunohistochemical staining results revealed that variable levels of EphA2 and MVD expression were significantly higher than that of the normal brain samples. Statistical difference was observed in EphA2 and MVD expressions between human gliomas and normal brain samples (P<0.01). The positive rate of EphA2 and MVD expressions was significantly higher in high-grade gliomas (WHO III-IV) than that in low-grade gliomas (WHO I-II) (P<0.01). EphrinA1 was expressed at low levels in most malignant gliomas, and the increased ephrinA1 expression was associated with lower-grade histology. MVD was significantly positively correlated with EphA2 expression (r=0.713, P<0.01) and significantly negatively correlated with ephrinA1 expression (r=-0. 772, P<0.01). EphA2 was significantly negatively correlated with ephrinA1 expression (r=-0.912, P<0.01). Conclusion:Specifically over-expressed EphA2 and its low-expressed ligand ephrinA1 in malignant gliomas may be closely correlated with the invasion and malignant degree of gliomas. Cooperation is involved in the angiogenesis and has an important function in the initiation and progression of gliomas.

Objective:To identify differentially expressed proteins related with malignant transformation of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) using proteomic analysis. Methods:Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization timE-of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) in combination with protein database searching were used to determine and identify differentially expressed proteins in esophageal cancer cell lines (EC1, EC18, and EC109) and immortal cell line (NECA-E6E7-hTERT). Western blotting and immunocytochemistry were used to verify the differential expression of annexin 2 in esophageal cancer cell lines and immortal cell line (NECA-E6E7-hTERT). Real-time fluorogentic quantitative PCR(RFQ-PCR) was performed to analyze the expression level of annexin A2 mRNA.Results: A total of 15 differentially expressed proteins were identified with more than 5 folds difference. Among them three proteins were down-regulated and 12 proteins were up-regulated. Western blotting and immunocytochemical analysis verified the down-regulation of annexin A2 protein in ESCC cell lines. However, differential expression pattern of annexin A2 mRNA was not consistant with its protein expression in ESCC cell lines and immortal cell line (NECA-E6E7-hTERT). Conclusion:The findings provide important clues for identifying the candidate biomarkers for high-risk population screening and early diagnosis of ESCC. Post-translative regulation/modification contributes to the down-regulation of annexin A2 protein.

BACKGROUND:Currently, neural stem celltransplantation can be performed through three main approaches:local lesions, blood circulation, and cerebrospinal fluid.
OBJECTIVE:To review the transplantation of neural stem cells or neural precursor cells via the cerebrospinal fluid in the treatment of central nervous system diseases.
METHODS:A computer-based search of PubMed and CHKD databases was performed to retrieve articles concerning transplantation of neural stem cells via the cerebrospinal fluid, and its application and therapeutic mechanism in the treatment of central nervous system diseases in both animal experiment and clinic study published from 2000 to 2009.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:It is suitable for neural stem cellsurvival, proliferation, and differentiation in the cerebrospinal fluid. Transplantation of neural stem cells via the cerebrospinal fluid is effective and feasible to treat central nervous system diseases. However, some problems have not been solved, such as the source of neural stem cells, the optimal time window and celldose, the safety and the long-term effect. Further studies are needed to pave the way for the intrathecal injection of neural stem cells in the treatment of central nervous system diseases.

【Objective】 To retrospectively analyze the indexes of autologous blood transfusion during heart valve replacement, in order to provide reference for allogeneic blood transfusion during heart valve replacement surgery under direct vision. 【Methods】 The data of 180 patients who underwent heart valve replacement in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into allogeneic and non-allogeneic blood transfusion group based on whether allogeneic blood was transfused during the operation, and the general data and 24 hours pre- and post-operative clinical examination indexes were compared. 【Results】 Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR=1.110, 95% CI: 1.058-1.165, P<0.05) and intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass time (OR=1.062, 95% CI: 1.038-1.086, P<0.05) were risk factors for allogeneic blood transfusion, and preoperative Hb content (OR=0.910, 95%CI: 0.868-0.953, P<0.05) was a protective factor. The RBC count(4.16±0.73 vs 4.52±0.71)×1012/L and Hb(120.94±17.97 vs 136.57±19.33) g/L at 24 hours preoperative in the allogeneic transfusion group were lower than those in the non-allogeneic transfusion group, and the RBC(3.51±0.53 vs 4.13±0.78)×1012/L, Hb(114.15±11.68 vs 124.79±14.96)g/L and platelet count(124.28±32.11 vs 148.29±26.62)×109/L at 24 hours postoperative were significantly lower than those in the non-allogeneic transfusion group (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Age and intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass time are the risk factors for autologous and allogeneic blood transfusion during heart valve replacement under direct vision, and the preoperative Hb content is a protective factor. It is necessary to evaluate the symptomatic treatment of patients before operation and reduce allogeneic blood transfusion.
