BACKGROUND:With the continuous development and progress of medical model, the treatment and rehabilitation recovery from peripheral nerve defects needs higher requirements; therefore, stem cel culture-based nerve tissue engineering technology provides a new strategy for nerve defect repair. OBJECTIVE:To explore the feasibility of combining bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and new nerve conduits to repair peripheral nerve defects. METHODS:Fifty New Zealand white rabbits, clean grade, were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 25 rabbits in each group. Animal models of peripheral nerve defects were made about 15 mm distant to the middle segment of the radius of the rabbit foreleg. At 1 week after modeling, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels/new nerve conduit composite material was implanted into the defect in the experimental group; and in the control group, only bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were transplantation. At 4 weeks after transplantation, a 5-mm nerve fiber was taken from the defect site, stained with hematoxylin-eosin and observed under scanning electron microscope. Density and diameter of regenerated nerve fibers were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, the density of nerve fibers was significantly higher in the experimental group, but the diameter of nerve fibers was significantly lower (P < 0.05). There were more cels with good growth, large size and many processes on the surface of regenerated nerve tissues in the experimental group than the control group. Moreover, in the experimental group, interconnected cels were woven into a mesh and the axons were longer and thicker, both of which were the performance of typical neuron-like cels. Taken together, the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels/new nerve conduit composite material can be used for peripheral nerve repair and present exact achievements.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational drug use in the clinic. METHODS:The calculation was carried out in type,amount and consumption sum of Chinese patent medicines containing Salvia miltiorrhiza in our hospital during 2011-2014. These data were analyzed,classified and sorted by DDDs sequence and the method of pharma-coeconomics with Excel statistically. RESULTS:The consumption sum of Chinese patent medicines containing S. miltiorrhiza took on little changes in our hospital dur-ing 2011-2014,decreasing by 10.52% in 2012 compared to 2011 but increasing by 8.49% in 2013 compared to 2012. The order of DDDs kept stable,indicating that Chinese patent medicines containing S. miltiorrhiza were used frequently in 4 year. The order of consumption sum also kept stable relatively. CONCLUSIONS:The utilization of Chinese patent medicines containing S. miltiorrhi-za in our hospital is rational. Those with suitable prices and proved efficacy take a great share in the clinical application.

Aim To investigate the change in neuropeptide Y(NPY) Y1 receptor level in infarcted myocardium tissues of (MI) rats. 　Method MI was induced by ligating the left descending anterior coronary artery (LAD) in the heart of rats. The techniques of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to identify the exist of NPY Y1 receptor mRNA in myocardial tissues. The technique of semi-quantitative PCR wa s used to observe the change of NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level. 　Results NPY Y1 receptor mRNA distributed in the heart tissues of rat. Compared with sham operated rats ,the NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level both in infarction area and non-infarction area was increased significantly after MI fo r 1d and 3d. The NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level in the heart tissues of sham-op erated rats was also significantly increased compared with that in control rats . 　Conclusion These results suggest that MI may result in increase NPY Y1 receptor level in the heart tissues of rats. Stre ss stimulation such as surgery may also increase the NPY Y1 receptor level in the heart.

Objective To investigate the angiographic manifestations of renal artery injury caused by percutaneous nephrolithotomy, and to evaluate the therapeutic effect of super-selective renal arterial embolization in treating renal artery injury. Methods A total of 22 patients with persistent or intermittent gross hematuria that occurred after percutaneous nephrolithotomy, who were encountered at authors’ hospital during the period from Jan. 2010 to June 2014, were included in this study. The diagnosis was confirmed by renal angiography in all patients, and super-selective renal arterial embolization with steel micro-coils was carried out in all patients. The patients were followed up for three months. The results were analyzed. Results Of the 22 patients, DSA examination showed that renal artery pseudoaneurysm (RAP) was found in 14 (63.6%), renal arteriovenous fistula (RAVF) in 5 (22.7%) and RAP associated with RAVF in 3 (13.6%). Renal angiography performed after super-selective renal arterial embolization showed that complete obstruction of the bleeding arteries was achieved in all patients, and the active bleeding stopped. Both the technical success rate and the hemostasis rate were 100%. During the follow-up period lasting for three months, no recurrence of hematuria or severe complications occurred. In 20 patients, different degree of embolism syndrome was observed after the treatment. Conclusion Renal artery pseudoaneurysm and renal arteriovenous fistula are the main types of renal artery injury after percutaneous nephrolithotomy. Super-selective renal arterial embolization with micro-coils can be used as the treatment of choice for patients who has failed to respond to conservative therapy.

Objective: To compare blood levels of NT-proBNP and uric acid (UA) in patients with pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) and chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods: A prospective research was conducted in 288 acute dyspnea patients treated in our hospital from 2010-06 to 2015-05. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on clinical diagnosis: PTE group,n=107 and CHF group, n=181. Blood levels of NT-proBNP and UA were examined in all patients, statistical analysis was performed by SPSS 17.0 software, independent samplet test or variance analysis were used to make comparison between 2 groups. Results: There were more male patients as 64/107 (59.8%) in PTE group and 103/181 (56.9%) in CHF group. Compared with CHF group, PTE group had the lower blood levels of NT-proBNP (2421.7±1678.1) pg/ml vs (6964.3±3873.1) pg/ml and UA (340.6±121.3) μmol/L vs (492.1±166.2) μmol/L, allP<0.01. Conclusion: In our research, blood levels of NT-proBNP and UA were lower in PTE patients than CHF patients; with general background, such phenomenon might be helpful to distinguish PTE and CHF in acute dyspnea patients in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical effects and short-term complications of using free jejunum graft (FJG) to reconstruct the defects by resections of pharyngeal, laryngeal or cervical esophageal cancers. METHOD: Fifty-eight cases of pharyngeal, laryngeal or cervical esophageal cancers were reconstructed with FJG. All cases were analyzed retrospectively. RESULT: The success rate of FJG transplantations was 91.4% (53/58). The incidence of post-operative short-term complication was 43.1% (25/58), which was not related to age or BMI. The most common complication was anastomotic leakage (18.9%), which was not related to per-operative radiation therapy. However, BMI > 25 cases had significantly higher incidence of anastomotic leakage than BMI ≤ 25 cases (P = 0.009). The second and third most common complications were respiratory system complications (10. 3%) and FJG necrosis (8. 6%). Para-operative death rate was 3.4% (2/58). Two-year overall survival rates of hypopharyngeal cancer and cervical esophageal cancer were 49% and 67% respectively. The group with no short-term complications had a slightly better survival rate than the group with short-term complications from the Kaplan-Meier curve, but there was no significant difference (P = 0.103). CONCLUSION FJG is ideal to reconstruct cervical digestive tract circumferential defects with a high success rate and a low mortality. However, the post-operative complication rate is high. Intensive observation, early detection and timely treatment of complications are crucial.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of endovascular stenting complicating other craniocervical artery stenosis (OCAS) in patients with atherosclerotic subclavian artery stenosis/occlusion (SASO).Methods The clinical data of receiving endovascular stenting therapy in patients with atherosclerotic SASO were analyzed retrospectively,including demographic characteristics,vascular risk factors,complicating OCAS,as well as stenting for SASO and follow-up results.Results A total of 65 patients with SASO were included in the study,47 of them were males and 18 were females (mean age of 64 ± 9 years).Forty-six patients (70.8％ ) complicated OCAS.The overall technical success rate was 95.4％,in which the patients with stenosis (n =58) were 98.1％ and those with complete occlusion (n =7) were 71.4％.The complications occurred in 4 patients.There were no intervention-related serious stroke and death.Mean follow-up was 24 ± 19 months,6 patients with restenosis and 10 with clinically relevant events were found.They mainly occurred in patients with OCAS.The first angioplasty patency rates were 94.5％,81.8％ and 81.8％,respectively at 12 and 24 months after procedure and at the end of follow-up.The survival rates of no clinically relevant events were 92.9％,74.6％ and 68.3％,respectively.Conclusions Endovascular stenting can safely and effectively treat the SASO patients complicating OCAS.Its overall clinical outcome may be affected to some extent by OCAS.

Objective: To inrestigate the association between thymidine phosphorylase (TYMP) polymorphisms and efficacy of postop-erative capecitabine-based adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Methods: Two hundred and thirty-five patients with colorectal cancer who received surgical treatment and adjuvant chemotherapy between January 2010 and December 2016 from People's Hospital of Zhengzhou, were included in this study. Peripheral blood and postoperative tissue specimens of the CRC patients were collected for genotyping polymorphisms and measuring TYMP mRNA expression, respectively. The correlation between the poly-morphisms and efficacy of postoperative chemotherapy in CRC patients was analyzed. Results: The prevalence of 5633C>T in TYMP gene among the CRC patients was as follows: CC genotype, 149 cases (63.40%); CT genotype, 73 cases (31.06%); and TT genotype, 13 cases (5.54%); the minor allele frequency of 5633C>T was 0.21. Survival analysis of the patients revealed that the median overall sur-vival (OS) of patients with the CT/TT genotype and those with the CC genotype was 5.9 and 4.5 years, respectively; the result was sta-tistically significant (P=0.009). Following adjustment in multivariate Cox regression analysis, the CT/TT genotype was found to be an in-dependent favorable factor for OS (HR=0.67, P=0.015). Additionally, of the 87 postoperative tissue specimens, results show that the levels of TYMP mRNA in cancer tissues of patients with the CT/TT genotype were significantly higher than those with the CC genotype (P=0.019). Conclusions: TYMP mRNA expression may be influenced by the 5633C>T polymorphism, making CRC patients benefit from capecitabine treatment.
