Objective To compare healing effects of surgical incisions using 635 /808 nm dualwavelength semiconductor laser and He-Ne laser irradiation.Methods 168 cases of non-malignant tumor surgery patients were randomly divided into 2 groups:test group including 83 cases which were treated on the surgical incisions by laser irradiation of the semiconductor illumination with low-intensity power; positive control group with 85 cases treated with He-Ne laser.Observation was carried out on incision healing by the clinic manifestations including redness,heat,swelling,pain,exudation,wound open,adverse event and the incision length offset.Results There was no significant difference between experimental group and the control group on incision healing (P＞0.05).Conclusions The treatment efficacy of the dual-wavelength semiconductor laser on surgical incisions healing is similar with that of the He-Ne laser.

Objective To evaluate the safety,feasibility and results of the hand-assisted retroperitoneal laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy ( HRPLDN ) with a modified technique. Methods Living donors (n =32) were divided into HRPLDN group (n =16) and open group (n =16) according to surgical technique.Operative data and postoperative outcomes including operative time,estimated blood loss,warm ischemia time,length of hospital stay and complication rate,were collected. Results All procedures were completed successfully.In HRPLDN group,the mean operative time was 101.3 ± 21.2 min (range from 70 to 150 min),with an estimated blood loss of 53.8 ±25.5 ml (range from 20 to 100 ml) and warm ischemia time of 2.4 ± 0.6 min ( range from 1.5 to 3.5 min).No living donor needed conversion to open surgery and the urine volume of transplanted kidney after first 24 hours was 5036 ml (range from 3500 -6500 ml).The mean postoperative on bed time were (2.8 ± 0.7 ) d (ranging from 2 -4 d).All parameters of HRPLDN were significantly better than that of open groups. Conclusion Living donor nephrectomy with HRPLDN is a safe and reliable surgical technique.

Objective To analyze the incidence and clinical features of urothelial tumors in renal allograft recipients.Methods A retrospective analysis of 1042 patients received renal allografts who had taken immunosuppression for at least six months between 2006 and 2011 in The First Centre Hospital of Tianjin was performed.Results Eleven cases of uroepithelial tumors were diagnosed in the 1042 cases of renal transplantation ( 1.06％ ),of whom 9 cases were noticed by hematuria ( 81.8 ％ ),2 cases ( 18.2％ ) by medical examination.Six patients were diagnosed with multifocal urothelial carcinomas.Surgery was performed on all the patients with renal tumors and followed by chemotherapy or radiotherapy.Conclusion Malignancies in urinary tract after renal transplantation should be bore in mind.Early diagnosis is very important.The treatment options include reducing immunosuppressive agents and removing tumor lesions completely.

We have researched the viscoelastic properties of the cancellous bones of the os calcaneus, os lunatum and os capitalum. The compressing stress relaxation experiment and the creep experiment in the vertical, horizontal and 45 degree directions on the os calcaneus were performed. The data and curve of the compressing stress relaxation and creep were obtained. By masing regression analysis we worked out the compressing reduced stress relaxation and creep functions and curves. The results show that the quantities of compressing stress relaxation and creep of the calcaneus in the vertical direction are larger than those in the other two directions. The initial quantities of creep of the os capitalum are larger than those of the os lunatum, and there are no significant different between the quantities of stress relaxation of the cancellous bones of the os lunatum and os capitalum.

Objective:To summarize the experience of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin(BCG) in the treatment of bladder cancer secondary to renal transplantation.Methods:The clinical data of 5 patients who underwent BCG bladder irrigation after secondary bladder cancer after kidney transplantation in Tianjin First Central Hospital from January 2015 to December 2019 were analyzed. There were 1 male and 4 female cases. During the period of immunosuppression after transplantation, 1 case developed secondary high-level non-muscular invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), 3 cases developed secondary low-grade NMIBC, and 1 case developed secondary glandular cystitis (4 cases). The mean age of the 5 patients with secondary bladder cancer was 59.7±4.0 years. Case one with high level NMIBC was treated with transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and postoperative irrigation of epirubicin. Case 3 and 5 with low-level NMIBC accepted regular postoperative irrigation of gemcitabine. No irrigative therapy was performed in case 2. Bladder cancer recurred in case 1, 2, 3 and 5 after 20.1±9.7 months. TURBT was observed in all the 4 patients, among which 3 were of high grade NMIBC and 1 was of low grade NMIBC. Four patients were irrigated with BCG 2 weeks after operation. Postoperative pathology indicated low-level NMIBC in case 4, and BCG was irrigated 2 weeks after the operation. During perfusion therapy, immunosuppressive agents were continued.Results:During BCG perfusion, 4 of the 5 cases showed BCG related local inflammation, among which 2 cases presented symptoms of bladder irritation, 1 case presented hematuria, and 1 case presented hematuria with low fever. Patients with frequent urination, pain in urine, hematuria and other symptoms improved after drinking plenty of water, taking bed rest and taking levofloxacin (0.5g/ day ×7 days). Patients with low fever were treated with antipyretic treatment. No antituberculous agents were used prophylactically during BCG perfusion. There were no symptoms of tuberculosis infection or sepsis. The function of transplantated kidney was normal and no tendency of rejection. The 5 patients were followed up for 7-24 months, 1 patient was lost to follow-up after 7 months of BCG bladder perfusion, and no tumor recurrence or metastasis was found in 5 patients during the follow-up.Conclusions:The use of immunosuppressive agents does not reduce the biological activity of BCG, and BCG does not increase the risk of systemic toxicity or affect the function of transplanted kidneys in immunocompromised patients. BCG is a treatment option for bladder cancer secondary to renal transplantation.

Objective:To investigate the molecular mechanism of rabbit ear cartilage remodeling induced by 1064 nm Nd∶YAG laser irradiation.Methods:Thirty-three rabbits were divided into 6 groups according to a random number table, and were used in the following experiments respectively: screening the optimal laser energy (6 rabbits), observing the changes of ear cartilage tissue immediately (6 rabbits), 1 week (6 rabbits), 3 weeks (6 rabbits), and 6 weeks after irridiation (6 rabbits), as well as transcriptome sequencing and verification (3 rabbits). The left ears of rabbits were used as untreated self-controls, while the right ears were irradiated. (1) Laser energy screening: the right ear cartilages of 6 rabbits were irradiated with 1064 nm Nd∶YAG laser at different energy densities (50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 J/cm 2). Cartilages without skin and perichondrium were cut into the same thickness and size for HE staining, in order to observe the changes of chondrocytes and to determine the optimal laser energy density for shaping (hereinafter referred to as the optimal energy density). (2) Histological observation of rabbit ear cartilage: the right ears of 24 rabbits were irradiated with laser under the optimal energy density. Bilateral cartilage samples were collected immediately after surgery and at 1, 3 and 6 weeks after surgery for histological observation (HE, Masson and Sirius red staining). (3) Transcriptome sequencing and sample verification: the right ears of 3 rabbits were irradiated with laser under the optimal energy density, and the cartilages were harvested and mixed within 6 hours after irradiation, which was set as the laser irradiation group. Cartilages of the same region and size on the left ears were set as blank control group. Transcriptome RNA sequencing was performed, and the expression levels of related genes and proteins were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and Western blotting. Results:(1) After laser irradiation with different energy density of 50-100 J/cm 2, HE staining showed that the chondrocytes could be changed at the laser energy density of 80 J/cm 2, without causing vacuolar deformation and coagulation necrosis, indicating that the damage degree was suitable.(2) After 80 J/cm 2 laser irradiation, histological observation revealed that there was an irradiated zone immediately after the operation. The overall morphology of chondrocytes in the radiation zone was elongated and exhibited spindle cell-like changes, with deep matrix staining and obvious refraction, as well as a relative increase of type Ⅱ collagen. At 1 week after irradiation, the radiation zone became shallower and the cell size recovered. From 3 weeks to 6 weeks, the matrix staining around the radiation zone gradually deepened and the overall cellular morphology was stretched again. (3) Transcriptome RNA sequencing revealed that there were 198 differentially expressed genes (70 up-regulated and 128 down-regulated) in the laser irradiated group compared with the blank control group. Through further screening and study, CREB3L2 gene expression was up-regulated in the laser irradiation group. qPCR results showed that the relative expression level of CREB3L2 mRNA in laser irradiation group was significantly higher than that in the blank control group, the difference was statistically significant( P<0.01). Western blotting showed that the relative expression level of CREB3L2 protein was higher than that of control group in a time-dependent manner, and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.01). Conclusions:After irradiation with long-pulsed 1064 nm Nd∶YAG laser, the expression level of CREB3L2 gene is up-regulated, which then induced chondrocyte rearrangement and proliferation, resulting in morphological and biomechanical changes of ear cartilage.
