[Objective]To provide a precise individualized design proposal for locating acetabular prosthesis by means of 3D reconstruction,reverse engineering software and rapid prototyping technology.[Method]3D CT scan pelvis image data were obtained from six patients,which displayed osteonecrosis of femoral head on one side.The data were transferred via a DICOM network into a computer workstation.A 3D model of hip was reconstructed using Amira 3.1 software,and saved in STL format.Then the 3D model was imported into Imageware 12.0 software.The normal hip joint centre of abnormal side was determined and the best orientation of the prosthesis(which was central axial ray of acetabula)was defined using reverse engineering.Locating template was designed according to the anatomic features of the acetabula and the central axial ray.Entity model was produced by rapid prototyping technology.The orientation of the prosthesis was located by matching the model to acetabular concavity at operation.[Result]By measuring postoperative standard hip anteroposterior film,the abduction angle of acetabular prosthesis was(46.00?2.49)? and the anteversion angle was(15.68?2.85)?.The expected result was obtained.[Conclusion]The navigation template designed and constructed preoperatively can provide precise location for acetabular prosthesis and avoid procedural errors at operation.

Objective To evaluate pancreatic duct stenting for acute biliary pancreatitis with difficult endoscopic cannulation. Methods From January 2005 to December 2009, in patients with acute biliary pancreatitis who needed intervention of emergency ERCP, a total of 81 cases were found to be with difficult cannulation and were randomly divided into either treatment group (n = 35 ) to receive pancreatic duct stenting, or control group (n =46) to receive the procedure without pancreatic duct stenting. All patients were treated with same medication, and the pancreatic stents were removed after stabilization at a mean time of 11days after ERCP. All patients were followed up for 3 months after discharging from the hospital. Results There was no significant difference between two groups in regarding of mean age, the time from onset to endoscopy, Glasgow scores and relevant biochemical parameters, but the occurrence of postoperative complications was significantly higher in control group than that of the treatment group ( 17. 39% vs. 5. 71%*, P ＜0. 01 ). Conclusion Pancreatic duct stenting is a safe and bridging procedure for patients with acute billiary pancreatitis, which can also reduce complications.

BACKGROUND:Schwann cells transplantation can change the local micro-environment and help to repair the injured neural tissue, so getting a large number of highly purified and active Schwann cells is the key of the study. OBJECTIVE: To search for a simple and rapid method to extract and purify the Schwann cells.METHODS: Rats were divided randomly into two groups, namely, in vivo pre-degeneration of sciatic nerve resection group and untreated control group, with 20 rats in each group. Under sterile conditions, the rat sciatic nerves were cut off at post-operative 7 days, Schwann cells were extracted by using mixed enzyme digestion and tissue mass transplantation; through low enzyme digestion and twice inoculation to differential adhesion, Schwann cells were purified. Cell morphology was observed under phase contrast microscope and identified by mmunofluorescence staining; cell purity was calculated; MTT method assay was used to determine the capacity of cell proliferation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At 7 days of the culture, the experimental group showed the typical bipolar or bipolar Schwann cells, with connections between cells; in control group, cell processes were shorter and less associated with the surrounding cells. Following S-100 immunofluorescence staining, cells were positive for green expression.Cells proliferated rapidly in the experimental group and formed a swirling shape at 15 days, there were a relatively small number of fibroblasts, at the purity of 96.1%; in the control group, the cells proliferated slowly, with many fibroblasts at a low purity. MTT assay showed that primary cultured Schwann cell proliferated weakly in both groups; compared with the control group, the proliferation of subcultured Schwann cells in the experimental group was markedly increased (P < 0.05 or 0.01), and reached a peak 3 4 days later. The results confirmed that in vivo denaturing, in vitro hybrid enzyme digestion, tissue mass transplantation combined with low enzyme digestion, separation of double-differential adhesion of Schwann cells is a simple and rapid method to extract and purify Schwann cells.

BACKGROUND: Schwann cells are the seed cells of neural repair, and it is a key to harvest a large number of Schwann cells with high purity and activity. OBJECTIVE: To compare the in vitro culture, purification, and morphology of Schwann cells between neonatal and adult rats, and investigate a simple and feasible culture method to harvest high-purity Schwann cells. METHODS: Totally 30 Sprague-Dawley rats, comprising 20 neonatal (1-3 days after birth, neonatal group) and 10 adult (weighing 150-200 g, adult group) rats, were included. Following double-enzyme digestion and two incubations, Schwann cells were isolated and purified by differential attachment. Cell morphology and attaching speed were determined through the use of inverted microscope. Cells were counted and cell purity was calculated. Cell proliferative ability was detected by MTT microcolorimetry. Curves of cell proliferation in each group were depicted to determine proliferative speed. Schwann cells were identified by S-100 immunochemistry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with fibroblasts, neonatal rat Schwann cells exhibited faster, while adult rat Schwann cells showed slower, attaching speed. Both neonatal and adult groups yielded over 96% cell purity. MTT microcolorimetry results revealed that Schwann cells proliferated actively in neonatal and adult groups. Cell proliferative curves show that neonatal rat Schwann cells proliferated faster than adult rat Schwann cells (P < 0.05). S-100 immunochemistry results showed positive results in both groups. All these findings suggest that double-enzyme digestion and two incubations followed by differential attachment is a satisfactory method to harvest considerable Schwann cells with high purity and activity. Neonatal rat Schwann cells show stronger proliferative, attaching capacities than adult rat Schwann cells.

Objective To assess the clinical outcome of massive hiatal hernia repair by mesh via laparoscopic approach. Methods A total of 31 patients with massive hiatal hernia who underwent laparoscopic repair from March 2005 to January 2009 were enrolled in the study, among which mesh was used in 20 patients. The clinical outcomes of these patients were compared with other 11 patients without mesh repair procedures. Results Surgical repair, combined with Dor fundoplication, was successful in all 31 cases.Five patients in the mesh group developed post-operative recurrent symptoms, 2 ( 10% ) of whom were confirmed by imaging study. Six patients in non-mesh group had recurrent symptoms after operation and 4 (36. 4% ) were confirmed. Conclusion Laparoscopic repair of massive hiatal hernia is technially demanding with a high post-operative recurrent rate. Administration of intro-operative mesh can reduce the difficulty of the procedure and recurrence as well.

Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the association of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) level over 5.3 mmol/L to the development of abnormal glucose metabolism and cardiovascular diseases (CVD).Methods This was a retrospective cohort study with 1 064 non-diabetic subjects(980 males;84 females) aged 60 or over, who carried out annual health check-up in Chinese PLA General Hospital from May, 1996 to May, 2015.Based on the average FPG level of 3 years before enrollment, the subjects were divided into four groups : ＜ 5.3 mmol/L, 5.3-＜ 5.6 mmol/L, 5.6-＜ 6.1 mmol/L and 6.1-＜ 7.0 mmol/L.Glucose metabolic changes, complications and mortality were follow-up until May, 2015.Results (1)The initial 3-year average FPG levels were (4.9 ±0.4) mmol/L in the total 1 064 subjects.Among them, 126 subjects developed diabetes mellitus (DM) and 144 subjects developed impaired glucose regulation (IGR) during the follow-up visits.The proportions of IGR and diabetes increased with the FPG levels (P ＜ 0.05).The risk for developing IGR was significantly higher in subjects with FPG≥5.3 mmol/L than in those with FPG ＜ 5.3 mmol/L (RR =3.08, 95％ CI 2.02-4.81, P ＜0.01).The risk for incident DM was markedly increased in subjects with FPG ≥ 5.6 mmol/L than in those with FPG ＜5.6 mmol/L (RR =6.73, 95％ CI 3.90-11.52, P ＜0.01);(2)The risk for CVD was eight folds higher in subjects with FPG ≥5.3 mmol/L than in subjects with FPG ＜ 5.3 mmol/L (RR =8.42,95％ CI 5.11-13.82, P ＜ 0.05);(3) Survival analysis showed that the risk of death was 1.47 times higher in subjects with FPG ≥ 5.3 mmol/L than in subjects with FPG ＜ 5.3 mmol/L after years of followed-up (RR=l.47, 95％CI 1.09-1.98, P=0.0127).Conclusion The risks for IGR, CVD and mortality are higher in the elderly with FPG ≥5.3 mmol/L, which highlights the importance for the disease prevention in elder people with FPG 5.3 mmol/L or more.
