Aim To investigate the method of culturing vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) of coronary arteries derived from experimental diabetic rats and to establish the model of VSMC for the study of chronic cardiovascular diseases of diabetes. Method After the establishment of the model of diabetic rats, the coronary arteries of rats were separated carefully to culture VSMC using the method of explanting culture. Results The primary culture of VSMC was performed successfully by the method mentioned above. The cells could be isolated by different kinds of digestive enzyme in three steps. 7 ~10 days afterward, the cells overlapped in layers and displayed the typical ‘hill and valley’ pattern and positive immunochemical staining for smooth muscle actin. Conclusion VSMC from experimental diabetes proliferates faster than normal VSMC and its cultivating condition is strictly limited. The morphology of diabetic VSMC is as same as that of normal rats.

Objective To assess the clinical results of the treatment of the 211 cases of long bone shaft fractures at lower limbs with intramedullary interlocking nails. Methods 211 cases of femoral and tibial fractures were treated chiefly with unreamed intramedullary interlocking nails and postoperative functional exercises including continuous passive motion (CPM). Results 189 cases were followed up for an average of 9 months (ranging from 4 to 26 months). All the cases achieved bone union, and no nonunion occurred. Delayed union occurred in 7 cases and limited knee joint function in 4 cases. According to the Johner-wruhs criteria, 178 cases were assessed as excellent, 24 as good and 9 as fair. The total excellent and good rate was 95.6%. Conclusions The intramedullary interlocking nail is a good device for the treatment of long bone shaft fractures at lower limbs. Its indications have become wider. It is correct to pay equal attention to the blood supply of the fractured bone and the reduction of the fracture during the operation.

An investigation of inappropriate feeding behavior and its impact was conducted in patents of 875 infants and toddlers aged 1-24 months from March 2004 to February 2008.The survey revealed that inappropriate feeding behavior included feeding sugar solution or sweet fruits daily in 72.1％ parents (631/875) ; adding yolk as the first supplementary food in 51.3％ (394/768) ; not allowing handgrabbing food or coarse food for infants over 7 months in 50.4％ (270/536) and 44.0％ (236/536) ; no meat eating for infants over 12 months in 36.0％ (54/150).And also revealed that 34.0％ (270/795) and 24.8％ (184/743) parents mixed rice flour or yolk with formula milk,respectively; 17.6％ (48/273) infant over 10 months only had cereal; insufficient or excessive water were used for reconstituting milk powder in 11.8％ (87/735) and 9.3％ (68/735),respectively.The results of investigation indicate that inappropriate feeding behavior among infants and toddlers are quite common and the reasons are various.

Objective To explore the effects on dogs' testis by microbubbles excitated by ultrasound.Methods Sixteen male dogs were divided into 3 groups randomly.Pulsed ultrasound irradiation and intravenous microbubbles injection were both applied in the microbubble enhanced ultrasound group (MEUS),pulsed ultrasound irradiation and intravenous microbubbles injection were individually applied in the ultrasound group (TUS) and the simple microbubbles group (MB).Results In MEUS group,the layers of seminiferous tubules decreased and the germ cells were arranged disorderly and bubbles appeared in the cells.The appearances of focal ultra-structural damage such as intercellular space widening,baseline broken and tight-connection of sustentacular cells disappearing were observed by transmission electron microscope,which were slightly or hardly demonstrated in other groups.Conclusions Microbubbles excitated by ultrasound can affect testicular germ cells and the integrity of bloold-testis harrier,which providing new train of thought of target treatments of testis diseases.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and toxicities of gemcitabine combined with ifosfamide and anthracycline chemotherapy for recurrent platinum resistant ovarian epithelial cancer.Methods Gemcitabine 800 mg/m2 ( day 1, 8 ), ifosfamide 1.5 g/m2 ( day 1 - 3 ), adriamycin 40 mg/m2 or epirubicin 60 mg/m2 (day 1 ) or mitoxantrone 10 mg/m2 (day 1, 8 ) were used in recurrent platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer patients, the cycle was repeated at interval of 21 to 28 days.Results A total of 60 patients received 172 cycles combined chemotherapy.There were no one cases complete response, while partial response 22 (37%, 22/60), stable 23 (38%, 23/60) and progression 15 (25%,15/60) were observed, with clinical benefit rate 75% (45/60).The median time of progression-free survival was 7 months, and the median overall survival time was 20 months.The main side effect was hematologic toxicity with leukopenia rate of 82% (49/60), among which Ⅲ - Ⅳ accounted for 31%(15/49).Digestive reaction was all in Ⅰ - Ⅱ , accounted for 42% (25/60).Conclusion The regimen of gemcitabine combined with ifosfamide and anthracycline is feasible, tolerable and effective in patients with recurrent platinum resistant/refractory epithelial ovarian cancer.

Objective To assess the safety and feasibility of video electroencephalographic (VEEG) monitoring in preterm infants and critically ill neonates in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Method From December 2017 to June 2018, high risk infants were prospectively enrolled and received VEEG monitoring in our NICU. Their basic information, adverse events and disturbances of any procedure during VEEG monitoring were collected by specially-trained nurses. Result A total of 245 times of VEEG were recorded. The average gestational age (GA) was (32.1 ± 3.6) weeks, the birth weight (BW) was (1879 ± 757) g, the corrected GA (cGA) at VEEG monitoring was (33.8±3.3) weeks, and the average weight at VEEG monitoring was (2008±716) g. The earliest cGA at VEEG monitoring was 25+5 weeks, and the lowest weight at VEEG monitoring was 520 g. The average monitoring duration was (4.9±2.4) h, ranging from 3 to 20 hours. During VEEG monitoring, 80 cases (32.7％) received noninvasive ventilation, 43 cases (17.6％) mechanical ventilation. The adverse events during electrodes placement were oxygen desaturation in 8(3.3％) cases. During VEEG monitoring, local skin erythema were found in 4 cases (1.6％), and electrodes displacement in 2(0.8％) cases. The disturbances of any clinical procedures were reported in 18(7.3％) cases. No severe adverse events such as displacement of endotracheal tube nor events requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation occurred during VEEG monitoring. Conclusion It is feasible and safe for trained NICU nurses to place electrodes for high risk neonates.

Objective To compare different nursing methods impacting on the wound healing effects of circumcision for patients with Chinese Shang ring circumcision. Methods A total of 144 male patients with Chinese Shang ring circumcision were randomly divided into A and B group by coin tossing. The patients of A group received circumcised dressing to wrap wound with dressing change 3 times/week;the patients of B group had no dressing for wound to exposure wound and keep wound dry. Followed interviewed 2 months after operation, we compared the incision edema, the infection, rate of incision rupture, postoperative pain, wound healing time, satisfaction of incision appearance and so other indexes between two groups. Results The patients in the group B suffered less pain when erected in 2 weeks after operation (P<0. 05). The length of healing time in B group was (25.9 ±4.7) d, shorter than (27.8 ±5.0) d in the group A (P<0.05). The postoperative incision edema, incision rupture, infection and satisfaction of incision appearance were no statistical significance between two groups (P>0. 05). Conclusions To exposure the incision and keep it dry after Chinese Shang ring circumcision can minimize the level of pain and length of wound healing, and is worthy to promote.

ABSTRACT:Objective To summarize nursing experience of 45 complex renal calculi patients treated with invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy of Cyberwand dual catheters.Methods Oxy-gen-inhaling and electrocardiograph monitoring were given to 45 patients and changes of disease were observed.The indwelling catheters were closely observed and were maintained unobstructed, and the color and property were observed.The related complications such as secondary hemorrhage and urinary irritation were controlled.Results All patients were successfully discharged after re-covery,among whom there was 1 case with postoperative septic shock,3 cases with secondary bleeding,and 3 cases with secondary nephrolithotomy,and all the patients were recovered they were followed after corresponding measures.After 6 ~24 months after operation,42 patients re-turned to normal and 3 cases maintained the former status without residue and relapse of stone. Conclusion Invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy of Cyberwand dual catheters is safety and effec-tive,and postoperative nursing plays very important role in recovery of patients.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for cerebral injury in survivors of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) after fetoscopic laser occlusion of chorioangiopagous vessels(FLOC) and to analyze the neurodevelopmental outcomes at 12 months of corrected age.Methods:A total of 136 cases of TTTS receiving FLOC in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2018 to August 2021 were retrospectively selected as the FLOC group, and the survivors were followed up. Neurological development at 12 months of corrected age was assessed using the Griffiths mental development scales-Chinese (GDS-C) from five dimensions with locomotor, personal-social, hearing and language, hand-eye coordination and performance subscales. Eighty-eight fetuses of TTTS pregnancies receiving expectant treatment or amniotic fluid reduction were selected as the non-FLOC group. The perinatal mortality and the incidence of cerebral injury in the two groups were compared, as well as the incidence of cerebral injury between patients undergoing Solomon surgery and selective laser surgery in the FLOC group. Generalized estimating equations were used to analyze the risk factors for neonatal cerebral injury after FLOC and the factors influencing general developmental quotient score at the corrected age of 12 months. Chi-square test, t-test, and Mann-Whitney U test were used for statistical analysis. Results:(1) The perinatal mortality rate in the FLOC group was lower than that in the non-FLOC group [14.7% (20/136) vs 26.1% (23/88), χ 2=4.50, P=0.034]. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of neonatal cerebral injury between the two groups [18.7% (23/123) vs 21.8% (17/78), χ 2=0.29, P=0.592], but the incidence of severe cerebral injury in the FLOC group was lower than that in the non-FLOC group [6.5% (8/123) vs 15.4% (12/78), χ 2=4.20, P=0.040]. (2) In the FLOC group, there was no significant difference in the incidence of cerebral injury between donors and recipients, or between Solomon surgery and selective laser surgery [16.4% (10/61) vs 21.0% (13/62), χ 2=0.42; 20.0% (9/45) vs 17.9% (14/78), χ 2=0.08; both P>0.05]. (3) Multivariate analysis showed that neonatal asphyxia ( OR=7.04, 95% CI: 1.45-34.20, P=0.016) and higher preoperative TTTS stage ( OR=2.05, 95% CI: 1.10-3.82, P=0.023) were risk factors for neonatal cerebral injury. (4) Fifty-two cases were successfully followed up at the corrected age of 12 months, and the incidence of developmental delay in at least one dimension was 34.6% (18/52). Developmental delay was mainly manifested in locomotor skills and language, accounting for 26.9% (14/52) and 11.5% (6/52). No significant difference in Z value was found between recipients and donors in each dimension (all P>0.05). Solomon surgery, larger gestational age at operation and low birth weight were related to low general developmental quotient score (95% CI:－11.71 to－0.23，－1.99 to－0.47，0.00-0.01，respectively，all P<0.05). Conclusions:The occurrence of cerebral injury in TTTS survivors after FLOC is related to preoperative TTTS staging and intrapartum neonatal asphyxia. Neurodevelopment of survivors is related to birth weight and gestational age at surgery, and there is a higher incidence of mild developmental delay at corrected age of 12 months.
