Mass cytometry is an emerging technology. Metal isotope tags are used to replace fluorescent tags, and are quantified by mass spectrometry. It combined mass spectrometry with flow cytometry, which could simultaneously measure various parameters without compensation and greatly improve the ability to evaluate complex cellular systems and processes. Its characteristics of high throughput, high sensitivity and high stability are especially suitable for the study in immunity, tumor, blood, medicine and genetics, etc.

Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) plays important roles in varieties of biological processes. This factor is highly conserved in mammalian animals and only one heterozygous LIF mutation was reported to cause the infertility of women. A LIF mutation was generated and the evidences were provided that the mutation of mature LIF at the 29th amino acid totally abolished its functions, including stimulation of STAT activation assayed by Luciferase reporter gene expression and EMSA experiments. In addition, the mutated LIF failed to inhibit the proliferation of M1 cells. The data indicated that the mutation of LIF did not have a dominant negative effect but lost the biological functions, suggesting that the 29th amino acid is critical for maintaining the activities of LIF.

Objective To observe and evaluate the clinical effect of pure hemodialysis (HD﹚, hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion (HD+HP﹚, hemodialysis combined with hemodiafiltration (HDF﹚ on onuremic patients. Methods All 90 patients with uremic in our hospital from January 2011 to May 2014 were randomly divided into HD group, (HD+HP﹚ group,HDF group according to the treatment methods, 30 cases in each group. After two months,the skin itching symptoms and blood toxin levels before and after treatment in each group of were compared. Results Before treatment,Pi, Scr and BUN levels were not significantly different between groups(P>0.05﹚. After treatment the Pi, Scr and BUN levels were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05﹚. No significant differences between groups(P>0.05﹚. Before treatment,three groups of PTH, β2-MG and Cys C level had no significant difference (P>0.05﹚.After treatment,three groups of PTH,β2-MG and Cys C levels were significantly decreased than before treat-ment(P<0.05﹚.Multiple comparisons between groups showed that the indexes of the level of (HD+HP﹚group was lower than that of the other two groups (P<0.05﹚.(HD+HP﹚ group,HDF group of skin pruritus symptom improvement rate were higher than those in HD group (P<0.05﹚,but (HD+HP﹚groups, HDF groups had no significant difference (P>0.05﹚. Conclusion Scavenging effects of HD,(HD+HP﹚and HDF to the small molecules are roughly the same,but scavenging effect of(HD+HP﹚and HDF for large, middle molecular substances are better than those of HD,so (HD+HP﹚ has the best effect.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of using ligation clip-assisted modified " expansion and co-llapse method" to determine the intersegment plane in thoracoscopic resection of the external posterior basal segment (S 9+ 10) in children with congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM). Methods:Retrospective study.The clinical data of 12 CPAM children who underwent thoracoscopic S 9+ 10 resection in Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University from July 2019 to May 2021 were collected and analyzed.There were 7 males and 5 females.The age at operation ranged from 3.50 to 11.50 months.The body weight of patients ranged from 6.5 to 11.5 kg.In all the patients, the ligation clip-assisted modified " expansion and collapse method" was applied during the operation to determine the intersegment plane (S 9+ 10 was in the expansion state and the remaining lungs were in the collapse state) before thoracoscopic S 9+ 10 resection.After S 9+ 10 resection, the surgical treatment and postoperative recovery were summarized and analyzed. Results:All the operations were completed under thoracoscopy, and there was no conversion to thoracotomy.In 11 patients, the intersegment plane was accurately determined by the ligation clips-assisted improved " expansion and collapse method" , and the S 9+ 10 segment was successfully resected.Of these 11 cases, 8 cases had right S 9+ 10 resection and 3 cases had left S 9+ 10 resection.In the process of using the ligation clip-assisted improved " expansion and collapse method" to determine the intersegment plane, the operator needed to clamp the ligation clip after the anesthesiologist expanded the lung completely.Because the operation was not stable enough, the ligation clip fell off and did not clamp S 9+ 10, resulting in operation failure.The operation was changed to the traditional " expansion and collapse method" . Besides, the basal segment bronchus was cut off by mistake, so the right basal segment had to be resected.The operation time ranged from 85 to 205 min, with a median of 149 min.Intraoperative bleeding ranged from 5 to 15 mL, with a median of 10 mL.The indwelling time of drainage tubes ranged from 2 to 4 days, with a median of 3 days.The postoperative hospital stay ranged from 5 to 8 days, with a median of 6 days.Postoperative pathological examination results suggested 4 cases of type 1, 6 cases of type 2 and 2 cases of type 3.There were 2 cases of simple subcutaneous emphysema without postoperative complications such as bleeding, bronchopleural fistula and atelectasis.The follow-up time ranged from 6 to 28 months, with a median of 15 months.The chest CT of all children showed no residual lesions and no residual cavities in the involved hemithorax. Conclusions:Ligation clip-assisted improved " expansion and collapse method" for determining the intersegment plane is suitable for CPAM children with a narrow thoracic space, and the operation is simple and effective.It is relatively safe and feasible to use this method in S 9+ 10 resection.

Objective:To statistically analyze SCI paper output and research hotspots of Chinese stomatology research institutes from 2011 to 2020.Methods:The papers of Chinese stomatology research institutions in the Web of Science database were searched and analyzed by bibliometric methods in various dimensions including publication time, institutional and journal distribution, international (regional) cooperation, and research hotspots.Results:The number and quality of publications in Chinese dental research institutions have increased significantly in the past decade, and the top four institutions in terms of publication number were Sichuan University, Peking University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, and Air Force Military Medical University. The distribution of the journals to which the articles belong was relatively scattered, and the research hotspots mainly focused on squamous cell carcinoma, periodontitis, bone regeneration, and materials science.Conclusions:The output of SCI papers and the number of high-quality papers in Chinese stomatology research institutions increased year by year during 2011-2020, and the scientific research strength continued to increase.
