Embryonic stem cells undergo extensive self-renewal and have the capacity to differentiate along multiple cell lineages.Research on totipotency and directional differentiation of embryonic stem cells in order to treat intractable disease,such as cancer,heart failure,atherosclerosis by tissue regeneration and cell transplantation are investigated.Epigenetic modification,including DNA methylation,chromatin restructure,and non-coding RNA-mediated regulatory events,regulate the differentiation of embryonic stem cells without detectable genetic changes.These mechanisms are often associated with starting-up and maintenance of epigenetic silence.The achievement and focuses on the molecular mechanism of embryonic stem cells during directional differentiation regulated by epigenetic modification are reviewed.

Objective To explore the variations in category of internal diseases in order to plan out strategies to deal with during pre-hospital period in Chongqing urban area.Methods The category of internal diseases of pre-hospital emergency service in Chongqing urban area from January 2004 to December 2013 was studied and the data were analyzed retrospectively.Results Firstly,the number of patients in pre-hospital emergency service continued to mount up year by year,from 6031 patients in 2004 to 12 264 patients in 2013.The ration of male to femal was 1.24∶1 to 1.68∶ 1,and the cases of female increased year after year,from 2246 to 5486.Secondly,cardiovascular disease was the leading illness in the wide varieties of internal disease (15.35％-19.36％).The number of cerebrovascular accident (9.72％-13.11％),respiratory diseases (7.48％-10.20％) and digestive diseases (8.36％-10.58％) were escalating.However,the acute poisoning cases (2.36％-6.18％) showed a tendency of decline.The peak time of the pre-hospital emergency service was stable in past ten years.Thirdly,there were seasonal variation in incidence of cardiovascular,cerebrovascular and respiratory disease,more cases occurred in January and December than in other months.Alcoholism commonly peaked before Spring Festival.Fourthly,the peak time of internal disease occurred in the past 10 years was stable,peaked during 20:00-24:00,and the trough time was during 0:00-4:00,the ratio of trough to peak ranged from 30.7％ to 43.5％.Conclusion The variation of the internal disease category was associated more or less with seasonal rotation,the improved living standards,and stress of modern life,and the incidence of emergency illness were escalating year by year,thus the corresponding measures should be instituted to deal with those major changes.Improving pre-hospital emergency response capacity and efficacy of treatment is of great significance.Strengthening the prophylaxis and healthcare,and establishing a professional capability for triage classification of diseases during emergency service are great essential for promoting the swiftness of prehospital emergency response.

Objective To study the effect of combining recombinet interferon α -2b gel and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) to treat cervical intraepithehal neoplasia (CIN). Methods Prospective, randomly and control study was progressed in 80 patients with CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ. Before carrying out LEEP, all women were performed high-risk HPV DNA detection by the method of HC2. Among them, forty women were. assigned to be the study group, in which the patients were added to use recombinet interferon α -2b gel for three courses of treatment before and after LEEP, the other forty women who carried out LEEP simply were assigned to be the control group. All patients were examined by hquid-based thinprep cytology test (TCT) and colposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection in the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th month after treatment, and judged the effect by using HC2 in the 6th and 12th month after treatment. Results Eighty patients were not detected residue and recidivafion of CIN diagnosed by coiposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection. In the study group, 3 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 37 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 92.5% when LEEP ended 6 months. The cure rate was 100.0% when LEEP ended 12 months. In the control group, 21 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 19 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 47.5% when LEEP ended 6 months, 8 women were negative detected by TCT, 25 women were negative detected by HC2, the cure rate was 62.5% when LEEP ended 12 months.In the 6th and 12th month after LEEP, the difference was distinguished in the cure rate between two groups. Conclusions There is double interrupted effects by combining recombinets interferon α -2b gel and LEEP to treat CIN. It can raise the one-time cure rate of the patients with CIN.

Objective To evaluate efficacy on treatment of acute iliofemoral lower extremity deep venous thrombosis with thrombectomy and pharmacological thrombolysis or pharmacological thrombolysis alone. Methods The clinical data of 175 cases of lower extremity iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis wereanalysed retrospectively. Patients were divided into thrombectomy group and thrombolysis group. There were 85 patients treated by thrombectomy, among these patients there were 46 with common iliac vein occlusion or stenosis. According to state of illness suitable treatment was selected, urokinase and low molecular weight heparin were given after operation. The other 90 patients were treated by pharmacological thrombolysis only,including urokinase and low molecular weight heparin. Results No significant differences were found in age, course of disease, swelling and associated diseases between the two groups before treatment (P ＜0. 05); After 1 month of treatment the circumference difference between bilateral limbs was reduced from (4.6±1.6) cm to (0.8 ±0.5) cm in operation group,and declined from (4.0±1.9) cm to (1.8 ±1.3) cm in thrombolysis group. The cure rate was 71.8% (61/85) in thrombectomy group and 38.9% (35/90) in thrombolysis group. 64.6% patients were followed up for an average of (28 ± 11 ) months.After 12 months of treatment the circumference difference between bilateral limbs was (0.4 ± 0.3 ) cm in thrombectomy group and ( 0.9 ± 0.7 ) cm in thrombolysis group respectively. The cure rate was 86.0% (49/57) in thrombectomy group and 53.6% (30/56) in thrombolysis group. In surgical group the incidence of deep venous thrombosis sequelae was less than in thrombolysis group( P ＜0. 05 ). The incidence of venous valve dysfunction in thrombectomy group was less than in thrombolysis group (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Thrombectomy and pharmacological thrombolysis was more effective than pharmacological thrombolysis alone in the treatment of acute iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the mid- and long-term efficacy of subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery (SEPS)in the treatment CEAP classification C4 - C6 of primary chronic venous insufficiency(CVI). MethodsClinical data of 82 cases of chronic venous insufficiency were analysed retrospectively. According to operative method adopted,patients were divided into group A in which perforator veins were ligated under subfascial endoscopic surgery (SEPS group ),and group B in which perforator veins were not ligated (non-SEPS group).Diagnosis was established by clinical symptoms,color Doppler or ascending venography in all patients.Postoperatively patients were followed up regularly.The clinical outcomes between different surgicalmethods in two groups were assessed byCEAP clinical classification,CEAP clinical symptom scores,cumulative ulcer healing rate and cumulative ulcer recurrence rate.ResultsNo significant differences were found in CEAP clinical classification,CEAP clinical symptom scores between the two groups preoperatively ( P ＞ 0.05 ). There were significant differences in CEAP clinical classification such as edema,lipodermatosclerosis,venous ulceration between the two groups on 2 years postoperatively (P ＜ 0.05 ).The amount of swelling limbs,healed ulceration,active ulceration in group A was less than group B (P ＜ 0.05 ) on 3' and 5' years postoperatively.Significant differences were found postoperatively in total clinical symptom scores between group A and B.Clinical symptoms such as swelling,lipodermatosclerosis,ulcer healing in group A relieved more markedly than group B ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The median healing time of ulcers was 2.3 and 3.7 months respectively in group A and B.Log-rank test on group differences was sensitive to long-term cumulative ulcer healing rate ( x2 =4.063,P =0.044).But Breslow test on group differences was sensitive to early cumulative ulcer healing rate ( x2 =5.471,P =0.019).Cumulative ulcer healing rate in group A was significantly higher than in group B postoperatively (P ＜ 0.05 ).The cumulative ulcer recurrence rate in group A was significantly lower than group B (P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionsSuperficial vein resection combined with perforator vein ligation significantly enhanced clinical efficacy,accelerated ulcer healing and decreased mid- and long-term ulcer recurrence rate.

Objective To summarize the medical rescue of Chinese Government Medical Team (Chongqing) in Nepal earthquake region in order to explore the work pattern of transnational medical rescue,and improve the rescue efficiency.Methods From the experience about the post-earthquake medical rescue of Chinese Government Medical Team (Chongqing) in Nepal in 2015,several aspects were worthy to summarize such as the establishment of medical team,the layout of camp site,the work algorithm and process,with the analysis of injury feature and outcome of treatment.Results Under the setting of efficient organization and rational assignment of professional work,special working rules,the mutual transfer treatment and multi-disciplinary treatment were employed for 737 emergency patients.Of them,128 patients were hospitalized (including 63 patients completely recovered,56 patients were of clinical improvement,and 9 patients were critically ill transferred to other hospital for advanced treatment),and post-traumatic complication occurred in 48 cases without death.In addition,148 operations were carried out successfully.Conclusions The earthquake disaster has specific feature such as suddenness,a host of casualties and poor rescue conditions,and overseas rescue is with the presence of the language barrier,the difference in living habit,and the lack of coordination with local rescue system,therefore,rationally assigning personnel and resources and establishing work pattern with flexibility,orderly and good communication are the key to promote the efficiency of transnational medical rescue for the injured patients in earthquake region.

Objective To compare complication between clamp harmonic scalpel and traditional pattern of bipolar electric knife in open thyroidectomy.Methods Patients undergoing open thyroidectomy from Jan.2009 to Dec.2010 in Thyroid Surgery Department of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were analyzed retrospectively.Patients fell into 2 groups according to operative pattern:633 cases in clamp harmonic scalpel group and 587 cases in bipolar electric knife group.Complications such as intraoperative and postoperative blood loss,reooperative hemostatic rate,transient or permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy,transient or permanent hypocalcaemia,and infection rate were compared.Results Compared with bipolar electric knife group,intraoperative and postoperative blood loss,reoperative hemostatic rate,transient recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and transient hypocalcaemia in clamp harmonic scalpel group were significantly lower:(21.0 ±0.7)ml vs (10.0±0.3) ml,(31.0±1.1) mlvs (12.0±1.4) ml,1.53％ vs0.47％,2.39％ vs0.95％,1.87％vs 0.63％,and 3.58％ vs 1.73％ respectively(P ＜0.05).There was no significant difference in complications of permanent hypocalcaemia,permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and infection rate for the 2 groups:0％ vs 0％,0％ vs 0％,and 0.68％ vs 0.63％ respectively ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusions Compared with traditional pattern of thyroidectomy,complication rate in clamp harmonic scalpel is significantly lower.Thyroidectomy by clamp harmonic scalpel is a safer operative pattern and worth to be popularized.

ObjectiveTo discuss the management of chronic thyroid abscess in children. MethodsThe diagnosis and management of 16 children with chronic thyroid abscess admitted from Jul. 2007 to Jun. 2010 in Department of Thyroid Surgery of Sun Yat-ssn Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were checked by Doppler ultrasound. ResultsOf the patients, 6 were males and 10 were females. The time of onset was from 3.2 years to 8.5 years, with 4. 6 years as the median. Hypoechoic or mixed echoic lesions in thyroid were seen on Doppler ultrasound scan in all patients. Abscess was found on the left side of thyroid in 11 cases (68.8％), and on the right side in 5 cases (31.2％). Abscess in 12 cases (75％) occupied the whole thyroid and began encroaching the adjacent tissues. Hypodermic fistula was found in 7 cases (43.75％). 12 cases (75％) underwent part resection of thyroid gland, and 4 cases (25％) underwent total resection of thyroid gland and debridement. All patients recovered and no complication like vocal hoarseness occurred. No recurrence happened within the follow-up of 3 months to 5 years. ConclusionsThe effective diagnosis of chronic thyroid abscess in children is to perform Doppler ultrasound scan of thyroid gland before operation. Abscess and fistula resection, partial or total resection of the affected side of thyroid gland are needed. Wound drainage and postoperative antibiotc are also helpful.
