BACKGROUND: Injured nerve can regenerate through end-to-side anastomosis and obtain partial physiological function in animal experiment. As an immuno-suppressivedrug, FK506, which is characterized by promoting neural growth and functional recovery, is paid widely attention to.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of FK506 on functional recovery of peripheral nerve after end-to-side anastomosis.DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal study.SETTING: Department of Operation Surgery, Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the Department of Operation Surgery, Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in March 2005. Totally 26female Wistar rats were selected and divided into experimental group and control group with 13 in each group.METHODS: Peroneal nerve was transacted on the right side of all the animals, the proximal end of peronieal nerve was turned back and ligated, and the distal end was sutured to the side of tibial nerve with perineurial window. No operation was done on the left side. FK506 was injected in the right tibial muscle (2 mg/kg· d), once a day within two weeks in the experimental group, and saline was used in another group as contrast.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Three months afteroperation, the bilateral common peroneal nerve and the tibial muscle were taken for electrophysiological and histological examination, and the number of common peroneal nerve fiber, area of tibialis anterior muscle fiber of transverse section and muscle wet weight of tibialis anterior muscle were measured. The results were expressed with the ratio between right side and left side (i.e.recovery rate).RESULTS: Totally 26 rats entered the final analysis. ① Results of histological examination: Both ratio of number of nerve fiber and ratio of area of muscle fiber in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (0.734±0.143, 0.412±0.119; 0.628±0.125, 0.432±0.135; P ＜ 0.01,0.05). ② Results of electrophysiological examination: Recovery rate of action potential, recovery rate of single muscular contractility and recovery rate of tetanus contractility in the experimental group were higher that those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05). ③ Ratio of wet weight in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group (0.765±0.101,0.513±0.116, P ＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION: FK506 injected into targeted muscle can promote growth and functional recovery of peripheral nerve in end-to-side anastomosis.

Objective To study the mechanism of cytotoxic T lympocytes in the acute rejection of xenogenic liver transplantation(XLT). Methods Hamster to rat orthotopic liver transplantation model was performed with three cuff method. In XLT,lymphocytes including CD8 and CD4 subsets were observed by histology and immunohistochemistry; the expression of perforin and Fas- L was observed by immunohistochemistry; and apoptotic cells of XLT were observed in situ end-labelling of fragmented DNA. Results In the XLT, T cell infiltration firstly ocurred on the 2nd day posttansplantation and located at the portal triads; the infiltrating lymphocytes proliferated increased with time and reached the peak on the 5th to 6th days.Perforin and Fas-ligand were expressed on the 4th day after XLT, and peaked on the 5th to 6th day,and the expression of perforing was still higher than the expression of Fas-ligand. Conclusions T lymphocyte participates in the acute rejection of XLT through the expression of perforin and Fas-ligand, which leads to apoptosis or necrosis of hepatocytes.

Objective To carry out a taxonomic identification of a strain of claviform bacteria iso-lated from prostatic fluid of a patient who suffered from chronic prostatitis, and to approach its phylogenic and biologic position. Methods We undertaked an initial identification by phenotypic characters such as morphologecal, physiological and biochemical characteristics to ascertain its phylogeny by chemical composi-tion analysis of cell wall and 16S rRNA gene sequencing and alignment. Results A club-shaped gram posi-tive rod bacillus was isolated in pure culture state. Its biochemical reactions were not active. The diamino-acid of cell wall was meso-diaminopimelic acid (meso-DAP) and it had wall chemotype Ⅳ ( contained arabi-nose, galactose and maltose ). Sequence searches of the GenBank database revealed that this strain had a highest level of 16S rDNA sequence similarity (99.4%) to C. tuberculostearicurn strain ATCC35692 with only 8 nucleotides difference. Conclusion On the basis of phenotypic and phylngenetie analysis, it is rea-sonable to assign this strain to the species C. tuberculostearicum, and this is the first isolation of C. tubercu-lostearicum from prostatic fluid home and abroad.

BACKGROUND: It is one of hot topics for the application of neurotrophic factors including neurenergen-3 to promote peripheral neural regeneration nowadays; however, clinical application is restricted to safety and effective administration route. Gene transfection brings a novel thinking and pathway for neurotrophic factors used in clinic.OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression of neural stem cells modified by neurenergen-3 gene after transfection.DESIGN: Completely randomized study.SETTING: Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics and Hand Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital, Guangxi Medical University;Department of Hand Surgery, Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: Three healthy SD rats of four months old and either gender were selected from Animal Center, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Recombinant adenoviral expressing vector for transfection of neural stem cells was constructed in Laboratory of Orthopaedics, Union Hospital of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and the concentration was 0.15 g/L.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the Orthopaedic Laboratory and Central Laboratory, Union Hospital of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from December 2002 to March 2004. Recombinant plasmid pAD-neurenergen-3 containing with green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene was transfectd into primarily cultured neural stem cells by using cationic tiposome interventional method. At 72 hours after transfection, fluorescent inverted microscope was used to observe GFP expression in neural stem cells, and transfection efficiency was measured simultaneously. Expression and transcription of neurenergen-3 gene in neural stem cells were detected at 72 hours, 1 and 5 weeks after transfection by using immunocytochemical stain and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Expression of neurenergen-3 gene in transfected neural stem cells.RESULTS: ① Neural stem cells transfected by recombinant plasmid pAD-neurenergen-3: GFP expressed on partial neural stem cells at 72 hours after transfection, and the transfection efficiency was 40%. Five weeks later, GFP expression was still observed. ②Transcription and expression of neurenergen-3 gene in neural stem cells: Transcription of neurenergen-3 mRNA was observed in neural stem cells at 72 hours, 1 and 5 weeks after transfection, and expression of neurenergen-3 mRNA was still observed in 5 weeks after trans fection.CONCLUSION: As the carrier of cationic liposome, neurenergen-3 gene can effectively transfect, culture and long-term express neural stem cells via the introduction of adenoviruses.

Objective To evallhte factors affecting blood loss during mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy using ureteroscope and pneumatic intracorporeal lithotripsy(MPCNL). Methods 1156MPCNL procedures in 885 patients from July 2002 to October 2006 were reviewed. Various patientrelated and intraoperative factors were assessed for association with total blood loss using multivariate regression analysis. ResuIts The average hemoglobin drop was(14.2+8.3)g/L.The overall blood transfusion rate was 1.5%. Approximately 0.6%of patients required angiography embolization to control intractable bleeding. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the occurrence ot operative complications(6=0.496,P＜0.001),size of the tract(b=0.405,P＜0.001),mature nephrostomy tract(6=0.377,P＜0.001),multiple tracts(6=0.326,P=0.005),size of stone(b=0.210,P=0.015),operative time(6=0.139,P=0.027),renal parenehymal thickness(b=0.128,P=0.035),prior stone intervention(b=-0.121,P=0.038),diabetes(b=0.110,P=0.051),and bacteriuria(b=-0.095,P=0.058)were significant predictors of blood loss.Factors such as age,sex,side,obesity,hypertension,renal function,operating surgeon,anaesthesia,calix of puncture,number of attempts to successful puncture,urine from puncture needle may not affect the blood loss. Concluslons Maneuvers that may reduce blood loss include reducing the operative time,decreasing the occurrence of intraoperative complications, reducing the tract size and tract number, and staging the procedure.Staging the procedure of MPCNL is a judicious decision in case of a large stone burden,intraoperative complications,multiple-tract,lager tract or diabetes.

Objective:To observe the size changes under ultrasound of 4C type thyroid micronodules classified by 2020 Chinese Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (C-TIRADS)during follow-up.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, the data of thyroid ultrasonography in physical examination center in the Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Dalian University between December 2017 and December 2021 were retrospectively included, thyroid nodules were classified according to C-TIRADS, to observe the changes by ultrasound of maximum diameter and volume of 4C type thyroid micronodules during follow-up.Results:A total of 102 subjects receiving physical examinations with 103 thyroid micronodules were enrolled in this study. The maximum diameter and volume of thyroid micronodules at initial examination was 5.0 (4.0, 7.0) mm and 52.5 (25.2, 113.4) mm 3 respectively, and it was 6.0 (4.0,7.0) mm、65.6 (25.2,147.0) mm 3 at the last examination, respectively. Of the thyroid micronodules, 79 (76.7%) remained stable, 14 (13.6%) magnified and 10 (9.7%) shrunk during the follow-up. The cervical lymph nodes in all physical examiners were normal. There were significant changes in the maximum diameter and volume in the thyroid micronodules between the initial and last examination in subjects whose micronodules shrunk or magnified during the follow-up (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Size of most C-TIRADS 4C thyroid micronodules remains stable or even decreases during ultrasound follow-up observation, for such thyroid nodules, follow-up observation appears to be a safe and feasible way to postpone surgery.
