Objective To discuss the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in modulating immune responses in a rat renal transplantation model.Methods An in vivo trial of cytology was performed in one centre from March to December in 2008.Wistar rat donors and Lewis rat recipients in a renal transplantation model were randomly divided into 4 groups:MSCs (low dose,1 × 106 )therapy,MSCs (high dose,1 × 107) therapy,CsA monotherapy,and no therapy.Biochemistry methods were used to detect the levels of creatinine in serum.The survival time,renal grafting function and pathological changes of transplanted renal tissues were observed.Results Animal survival was significantly prolonged by MSCs (high dose) therapy and CsA monotherapy as compared with the no therapy group (both P<0.01).Animal survival in the MSCs (low dose) therapy group was prolonged as compared with no therapy group (P<0.01),but shortened as compared with MSCs (high dose) therapy group (P<0.05) and CsA monotherapy group (P<0.05).The MSCs (high dose) therapy and CsA therapy groups showed no special changes in histology,hut the control group showed acute rejection.Conclusion MSCs down-regulated immune responses,reduced production of some inflammatory mediators,preserved graft function in the initial stage after transplantation,and prolonged animal survival,and these effects were the same as those of CsA therapy with 1 × 107/day.

Objective To compare the efficacy of lymph nodes(LNs) dissection between video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and thoracotomy in the treatment of clinical stage Ⅰ lung cancer.Methods A comprehensive search of PubMed,Ovid Medline,EMBASE,Web of Science,ScienceDirect,the Cochrane Library,Scopus database and Google Scholar was performed to identify studies comparing VATS and thoracotomy in LNs dissection.The data was analyzed by RevMan 5.3 software and SPSS 18.0.Results After selection,23 articles met the inclusion criteria.2 316 patients were involved in VATS group and 3 346 patients were involved in Open group.Meta analysis showed that less total LNs(95% CI:-1.64--0.60,P < 0.0001),totalLNsstations(95%CI:-0.61--0.01,P=0.04) andN1 LNs(95%CI:-0.28--0.02,P=0.02)were dissected in VATS group.On the left side,more LNs were dissected in VATS group(95% CI:0.51-3.22,P =0.007).The same number of mediastinal LNs (95% CI:-0.74-0.15,P =0.20),mediastinal LNs stations (95% CI:-0.20-0.14,P =0.76),right side LNs (95 % CI:-1.52-2.23,P =0.71) were harvested in both groups.Conclusion In the surgical treatment of clinical stage Ⅰ lung cancer,less total LNs,total LNs stations and N1 LNs were dissected in VATS group,while more left side LNs were harvested by VATS.The same number of mediastinal LNs,mediastinal LNs stations right side LNs were harvested in the two groups.This conclusion still needs to be further proved by more high-quality and large-scale RCTs.

Objective To detect the expression of the tryptase in the plasma,and study the meaning in brain traumatic patients.Methods There were two groups:the brain traumatic group(40 patients)and the control group (20 health people).The content of plasma tryptase was determined by fluorescence enzyme immunoassay..Results The level of plasma tryptase had no statistical significance in control group(2.97 ±1.05)μg/L compared with the brain traumatic group(3.03 ±1.39)μg/L,however there had statistical significance comparing with sever brain traumatic patients(3.84 ±0.52μg/L)(t =3.32,P <0.05).4 cases of death in patients with severe head injury group content of tryptase (5.85 ±1.05)μg/L,which was significantly higher than the group of 16 cases of injury in severe head injury after 2 months still alive with the content of serum tryptase (2.49 ±0.52)μg/L,the difference was statistically significant (t =8.13,P <0.01).Conclusion The plasma tryptase level in sever brain traumatic patients increased significantly,and might be of importance for treatment strategies and prognosis.

Clinical data of 27 children with renal calculi (11 cases on the right side and 16 on left)who were treated with extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) using HB-ESWL-VG lithotripter from April 2006 to October 2008 were retrospectively reviewed.The size of stones ranged from 5 mm to 17 mm in diameter (mean 11 mm).In 22 out of 27 cases (82%) stones were crushed completely after the first course.Eleven of 27 ESWL cases were stone-free in 7 days,8 patients in a month after treatment;the stonefree rate was 96% when patients were followed up for 1 year.The results suggest that ESWL is a safe and effective method for treatment of renal calculi in children.

New process reported the synthesis of telavancin using decyl alcohol as the starting material.After methanesulfonylation,nucleophilic substitution with ethanolamine,Fmoc protection,and Parikh-Doering oxidation,the intermdiate N-(9-fluorenyl-9-methoxycarbonyl) decylaminoethyl acetaldehyde (5) was obtained.Vancomycin hydrochloride and intermediate 5 were then subject to reductive amination reaction,Fmoc deprotection,and Mannich reaction to give the telavancin product.The process have been deeply studied on the two key reactions of reductive amination and Mannich reaction,and the reaction conditions have been optimized.The overall yield is 46% based on starting material vancomycin.

Objective To explore clinical value of the single-hale video-assisted thoracoscope surgery in lung surgery.Methods In our hospital from January 2015 to June 2015, a total of 60 patients was performed with lung partial resection line thoracoscope surgery, 28 routine puckering traditional video-assisted thoracoscope treatment, in the same period 32 underwent video-assisted thoracoscope surgery.Intraoperative blood loss, operating time, postoperative pain degree, and postoperative chest such as flow rate were compared between two groups.Results Two groups of patients had no perioperative death and severe complications.Intraoperative blood loss and operating time were no significant significance between single-and double-hole operation groups.The degree of postoperative pain score was (0.8 ± 0.5) in puckering thoracoscope group, and (1.2 ± 0.6) in traditional thoracoscope group, with significant difference (P =0.009).Conclusions Single-hole thoracoscope surgery in the treatment of lung diseases is feasible and reliable compared to traditional thoracoscope surgery, and patients can effectively reduce postoperative pain, and improve the quality of life.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of endooscopic minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy in the treatment of esophageal carcinoma. Methods From June 2012 to August 2015, the data of 180 patients with esophageal carcinoma was retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into endoscopy McKeown esophagectomy group (EME group) and open McKeown esophagectomy group (OME group), each group had 90 patients. The clinical pathological data, perioperative data and postoperative complications between the two groups were analyzed. Results The operation time in EME group was longer than that in OME group [(289 ± 30) min vs. (252 ± 28) min, t= 8.063, P< 0.05]. The intraoperative blood loss and postoperative blood loss on the first day after operation in EME group were less than those in OME group [(178.94 ± 47.84) ml vs. (323.44 ± 59.51) ml, t=17.952, P<0.05; (220.93 ± 49.07) ml vs. (362.59 ± 68.37) ml, t= -15.968, P< 0.05]. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the number of lymph node dissection (t= -1.913), postoperative hospitalization days (χ2= 4.858) and postoperative complications (exact probability method) (all P> 0.05). Conclusions Endoscopic minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy has the same effect as open surgery, and trauma is small. Therefore, for the patients who are suitable for the minimally invasive surgery, it can be preferred.
