The tissue engineering technology that developed in the 1980s brings a hope for the regeneration of human organs. It is feasible to construct by-pass vessels, which have no immune resistance but are capable of anticoagulation. At present, a huge number of researches have provided the necessary basis for the construction. However, there are still some difficulties on the points of induction and proliferation of endothelial cells, development of new materials for scaffold and co-culture of seed cells in scaffold. These difficulties have become the bottle neck of tissue engineered blood vessels. The tissue engineering vessels are nowadays absent in clinical practice. With the progress in researches of tissue engineering, it is strongly believed that human organs and tissues can be constructed using tissue engineering technology, thus satisfying the donors of organ transplantation.

Subclavian artery occlusion is a common peripheral artery occlusion disease of various causes,with incidence of 1.9％.The most common symptoms are dizziness,ataxia,and hemiplegia that are caused by subclavian steal syndrome.Surgery is the only therapeutic method for symptomatic patients.Open surgery remains an important role despite of the rapid progress in endovascular surgery.Main surgical method includes carotid-subclavian transposition (CST),carotid-subclavian bypass (CSB) and axillary-axillary bypass.Each one is suitable for different lesions and anatomies.Both the effectiveness and safety have been testified.

Objective To evaluate the myocardial protection of warm blood cardioplegic induction during cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) Methods Twenty-eight adult patients undergoing valve replacement ,were devided randomly into two groups : in group test (group T,n=14) the warm (35℃-37℃) blood cardioplegia was infused to induce ECG straight line ,followed by the administration of the cold (6℃-8℃) blood cardioplegia , whereas in group control (group C ,n=14) the cold blood cardioplegia was applied simply The aterial blood samples were taken to measure the plasma concentration of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) with ELISA methods immediately after anesthesia induction,and immediately ,6 h, 24 h after the weaning from CPB The myocardial samples of right atrium were taken to observe the morphology with the transmission electron microscpe Results The rate of restoring spontaneous heart-beat in group T (93%) was significantly higher than that in group C (50%) One case in gruop T (7%) and three cases in group C (21%) required the interim pacemakers No case in group T (0%) and five cases (36%) in group C required the administration of dopamine perioperatively The durations of post-operative mechanical ventilative support and ICU-staying of group T were obviously shorter than those of group C The plasma level of cTnT in group T was obviously lower than that in group C immediately and 6 h after CPB Myocardial morphology in group T got much better outcome than that in group C did Conclusions Warm blood cardioplegic induction during CPB can provide better myocardial protection than cold blood cardioplegic induction

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of intracoronary stenting for senile patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods42 senile patients with AMI underwent intracoronary stenting were analysed. Before and after stenting, the changes of the patients' blood pressures, heart rates and cardiac functions tested by ultrasonography were observed.Results45 intracoronary stents were implanted in 42 patients, one patient falled during hospitalization. The blood pressure was increased significantly, the heart rate decreased and the candiac function improved after stenting.ConclusionIntracoronary stenting is a very effective and safe therapy for the senile patients with AMI.

Thirty seven patients with venous thromboembolic disease in puerperium were admitted to hospital from January 2005 to December 2008; the clinical data of patients were retrospectively analyzed.The average age of patients was (33 ± 6)years (21 -42 years); the average onset time was ( 10 ± 6) d( 1 -50 d) after delivery.Seven patients had vaginal birth and 30 by cesarean section.The risk factors included pregnancy,cesarean section,age,infection,thrombophilia.All were diagnosed by ultrasonography and treated by anticoagulant,antiplatelet and thrombolytic therapy in the acute phase,followed by wearing elastic compressive stockings for more than 2 years.Pulmonary embolism was diagnosed in 8 patients by CT angiography,in 7 of whom inferior vena cava filter was administrated emergently.The patients were followed up for (29 ± 10)months ( 12 -60 months); during the follow-up 3 developed deep vein post-thrombosis syndrome,while others kept in good condition.The results indicate that initial anticoagulant,antiplatelet and thrombolytic therapy followed by elastic compressive stockings administration is effective for venous thromboembolic disease during puerperium.

Objective To evaluate endovascular repair combined with assistant techniques for the treatment of Stanford type B aortic dissection involving aortic arch.Method From July 2002 to June 2010,46 patients of aortic arch dissection with the primary entry tear next to the orifice of left subclavian artery,were treated with endovascular repair.Left subclavian arteries were covered with TEVAR in 43 cases.PDA occludes were used in 6 patients.Nine patients received extrathoracic supra-aortic branches bypass.Double-barrel technique was performed in 8 patients.Fenestrated stent graft was used in 1 patient.Result All patients survived and were followed up for 2 to 76 months.No severe neurological complications happened.All synthetic grafts and carotid artery stents were patent.Type Ⅱ endoleak occurred in 10 patients,among them 6 received PDA occlude implantation in the left subclavian artery,and 2 patients recovered by conservative treatment.Nine patients suffered from ischemia of the left upper extremity,and 8 of them were treated with conservative method,one received bilateral subclavian artery bypass because of severe ischemia after endovascular treatment.In follow-up,all of the stent-grafts and grafts were patent.In the descending aorta,the diameter of true lumen increased significantly and the diameter of false lumen shrank gradually.Conclusions Endovascular aortic repair combined with extrathoracic supra-aortic branches bypass,PDA occlude,double-barrel technique and fenestrated technique is a safe and effective method for Stanford Type B aortic dissection involving aortic arch.

Intellectual property in medical institutions has been getting more attention in research activity.Large general hospitals have made significant achievements in intellectual property,and the management of intellectual property right has also gradually become the norm.This article discussed the possibility to carry out the intellectual property management in the primary health care sector,based on their current status and characteristics,proposed an evaluation system which suitable for the primary health care sector.We described the structure and method of this system,explored a standardized intellectual property management process used in primary health care institutions.
