Objective To investigate the relationship between immune tolerance and the changes of helper T cell (Th), regulatory T cell (Treg) cytokines, related signaling pathway proteins during immune tolerance process in rat models of liver transplantation. Methods The orthotopic liver transplantation rat models were established by double-cuff technique. All rats were divided into 3 groups. In the operative control group (n=6), sham operation was performed without liver transplantation. In the short-term group (n=10), the rats survived for 10 d after liver transplantation. In the immune tolerance group (n=10), the rats survived for 100 d after operation and the function of the transplanted liver was restored to normal. The expression levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Th1 cytokines [interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-2 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α], Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, IL-6 and IL-13), Th17 cytokines [granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and IL-17A], Treg cytokines [IL-10, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β and IL-12p] were quantitatively measured. The serum sample of rats in each group was detected by protein chip analysis. Results Compared with the operative control group, the AST level in the short-term group was significantly down-regulated, whereas the ALT level was significantly up-regulated (both P < 0.05). However, the AST and ALT levels did not significantly differ between the immune tolerance group and operative control group (both P > 0.05). In the liver tissues of rats in each group, the expression levels of Th1 cytokines IFN-γ and IL-2 in the short-term group were significantly higher than those in the operative control group (both P < 0.05). The expression level of Th2 cytokine IL-4 in the immune tolerance group was significantly lower than that in the operative control group (P < 0.05). The expression levels of Th2 cytokines IL-5, IL-6 and IL-13 in the short-term group were significantly lower than those in the operative control group (all P < 0.05). The expression level of IL-17A in the immune tolerance group was significantly higher than that in the operative control group (P < 0.05). In the immune tolerance group, the expression levels of IL-10and IL-12p were significantly higher than those in the operative control group (both P < 0.05). The expression level of TGF-β in the short-term group was significantly higher than that in the operative control group (P < 0.05). Compared with the operative control group, the expression levels of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, pro-platelet basic protein (Ppbp), Neuropilin-2, Notch-2 protein in the short-term group were significantly up-regulated (all P < 0.05). The expression levels of CXC chemokine ligand 17 (CXCL17), ICAM-1 and Neuroleptin-2 protein were markedly up-regulated (all P < 0.05), whereas that of B7-1 protein was significantly down-regulated (P < 0.05) in the immune tolerance group. Conclusions Treg cytokines (IL-10, TGF-β and IL-12p), IL-6, IL-17 and trans-membrane signaling pathway molecules (ICAM-1, Neuropilin-2, B7-1 proteins) play a pivotal role in the natural immune tolerance process of rat models of liver transplantation.

Objective To develop a new type of lumbar prosthesis,movable artificial lumbar vertebral body (MALV) and evaluate the stability and activity of the prosthesis by in vitro biomechanical test.Methods Fifteen adult fresh lumbar spine specimens were randomly divided into three groups:intact group,fusion group and non-fusion group.The anatomical parameters of L2 vertebral body and adjacent intervertebral discs were collected by software (Mimics 16.0,Materialise Company,USA) and the new prosthesis was personalized by 3D printing and mechanical processing.All specimens in fusion group and in non-fusion group were implanted with titanium cage,titanium plate and MALV respectively after partial resection of L2 vertebra and adjacent intervertebral disc.No other intervention was conducted on physiological specimens.All specimens were examined by imaging to determine the position of the prosthesis and the condition of the spinal cord.Specimens in all groups were subjected to a 7.5 N · m load biomechanical test in flexion,extension,left and right lateral bending,left and right rotation aiming to evaluate the mobility of operative site and adjacent discs.Results The new prosthesis consists of three parts,vertebral body,intervertebral disc and composite material ball.All 15 cadavers were free of spinal deformity,fracture and osteoporosis.Postoperative radiographic examination indicated no prosthesis displacement and spinal compression without adverse phenomena.The results in vitro mechanical test were as followed.There was no statistical difference in ROM of the T12L1 intervertebral in non-fusion group (3.68°±0.86°,3.52°± 0.86°,2.64°±0.93°,2.58°±0.76° respectively) and in intact group (3.98°±0.90°,3.74°±0.91°,2.94°±1.10°,2.96°±0.86° respectively) in flexion,extension,left and right lateral bending (P＞0.05).The ROM of the T12L1 intervertebral in fusion group (5.28°±0.83°,5.32°±0.42°,4.72°±1.10°,4.94°±1.17° respectively) was significantly larger than that in intact group and non-fusion group (P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the ROM of L1.2 and L2.3 intervertebral in flexion,extension and left and rightlateral bending in the non-fusion group (ROM of L1.2 were 4.62°±0.51 °,4.34°±0.67°,3.16°±0.55°,3.28°±0.41 ° respectively;ROM of L2.3 were 4.54°±0.58°,4.36°±0.65°,3.26°±0.21°,3.42°±0.37° respectively) and the intact group (ROM of L1.2 were 4.10°±0.53°,3.72°±0.42°,2.74°±0.50°,3.04°±0.40° respectively;ROM of L2.3 were 4.26°±0.72°,4.08°±0.77°,3.00°±0.36°,3.20°±0.31° respectively) (P＞0.05).The ROM of L1.2 and L2.3 in intact group and in non-fusion group were significantly greater than those in the fusion group (ROM of L1.2 were 1.10°± 0.35°,1.28°±0.31°,0.84°±0.34°,0.80°± 0.43° respectively;ROM of L2.3 were 1.14°±0.30°,1.18°±0.28°,0.94°± 0.36°,1.06°±0.32°) (P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the ROM of the T12-L3 full segment in the left and right rotation of the three groups (Intact group:4.47°± 0.99°,4.40°±0.70°;Non-fusion group:4.60°±0.90°,4.50°±0.77°;Fusion group:3.85°±0.50°,3.72°±0.70°)(P＞0.05).Conclusion The MALV can retain the mobility of the operative site in flexion,extension,lateral bending and rotation.Furthermore,it can effectively avoid the increased mobility of adjacent segment intervertebral.After implantation,the prosthesis can obtain satisfied immediate stability.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of non-fusion and fusion internal fixation with posterior pedicle screw for odontoid fractures. Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 46 patients with odontoid fractures admitted to Henan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2013 to June 2015. There were 35 males and 11 females, aged 19-62 years [(36. 9 ± 1. 6)years]. The preoperative odontoid fractures were classified as type IIA in five patients, type IIB in eight, type IIC in 22, shallow type III in six according to Anderson and D'Alonzo typing. The fractures of five patients were not classified. According to the ASIA grading, the preoperative spinal cord function was graded as D or E in the 46 patients. Among the patients, 15 underwent posterior pedicle screw non-fusion internal fixation ( Group A) , with 60 pedicle screws removed 12-29 months after operation. A total of 31 patients were treated with fusion internal fixation with posterior pedicle screw ( Group B) , with 124 pedicle screws free from removal after operation. The follow-up time, operation time, intraoperative fluoroscopy time, intraoperative blood loss as well as visual analog scale (VAS), cervical rotation degree, and neck disability index ( NDI) before operation, 1 year after surgery ( when no internal fixation was removed ) and at the last follow-up were compared between the two groups. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in the follow-up time, operation time, intraoperative fluoroscopy time, intraoperative blood loss, VAS score, neck rotation degree, NDI score before operation and at 1 year after operation (P >0. 05). There were significant differences between two groups in VAS scores, neck rotation degree, NDI scores indicating driving and walking and recreational activities at the last follow-up ( P <0. 05 ) . There were no significant differences between two groups in other NDI scores items, including neck discomfort, personal care, lifting heavy objects, reading & watching TV, headache situation, attention, working status, and sleep disorder at the last follow-up ( P> 0. 05 ) . Conclusions Posterior pedicle screw internal fixation for odontoid process fracture has good curative effect. Non-fusion internal fixation with posterior pedicle screw is more conducive to the recovery of cervical spine rotation function, the relief of neck and back pain, and the improvement of patients' driving, walking and entertainment activities.

Objective:To evaluate the perioperative safety and long-term prognosis of allogeneic vein replacement in abdominal surgery.Methods:Clinical data of 115 patients receiving allogeneic vein replacement from Jan 2013 to Dec 2020 was retrospectively analyzed.Results:The most common operation was radical pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer (75.7%), and the most common vascular replacement sites were the junction of portal vein system (53.9%), followed by superior mesenteric vein (23.5%) and portal vein (18.3%). In our group, 6 patients died (5.2%), 31 patients had complications (27.0%), and 2 patients had portal vein thrombosis (1.7%). During the follow-up period, 8 cases (7.5%) had mild stenosis, 12 cases (11.5%) had moderate stenosis and 14 cases (13.2%) had severe stenosis. The half-year, one-year and two-year incidence of moderate and severe stenosis were 8.0%, 24.4% and 34.5% respectively.Conclusions:The early and mid-term result of allogeneic vein replacement is satisfactory. Use of postoperative anticoagulation may help reduce the incidence of thrombogenesis or stenosis .

Objective:To evaluate the effect of allogenic vein replacement in treatment of borderline resectable pancreatic cancer, and to analyze risk factors of long-term stenosis.Methods:The clinical data of 77 patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer who underwent surgery from January 2013 to December 2021 at the Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 34 males and 43 females, aged (61.4±10.8) years old. The peri-operative data, long-term prognosis and stenosis of allogenic vein were analysed. Risk factors of stenosis were analyzed by the Cox proportional hazards model. Patients were followed up by outpatient visits or by telephone.Results:Pancreatic cancer had invaded the junction of portal vein/superior mesenteric vein (SMV) in 41 patients, SMV in 22 patients and portal vein in 14 patients. The length of venous resection was (3.7±1.0) cm, the tumor longest diameter was (3.8±1.6) cm, lymph node metastasis was present in 57 patients, R 0 resection was carried out in 70 patients, and the postoperative complication rate was 29.9% (23/77). The survival rates in 6 months, 1-year and 2-year were 84.1%, 52.3% and 32.9% respectively. Mild venous stenosis occurred in 4 patients (5.2%), moderate stenosis in 9 patients (11.7%) and severe stenosis in 11 patients (14.3%). A vascular resection length of more than 3 cm ( RR=4.602, 95% CI: 1.657-12.781, P=0.003) and tumor recurrence ( RR=8.529, 95% CI: 1.129-64.448, P=0.038) were independent risk factors for long-term moderate and severe stenosis of allogeneic vein. Conclusion:It was safe and feasible for allogenic vein to be used to reconstruct the portal venous system in resection of borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. Long-term stenosis of the allogenic vein was related to a length of vascular resection of more than 3 cm and recurrence of tumor.

Objective:To investigate the effect of lymph node metastasis on the prognosis of patients with G2 phase stage pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm(pNEN).Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the case data of 368 patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors in G2 phase stage from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2016 in SEER database, including 174 males and 194 females. According to whether lymph nodes were metastatic, they are divided into lymph node non metastatic (N0) group ( n=272) and lymph node metastatic (N1) group ( n=96). The Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test were used to compare the overall survival rate (OS) of patients in the N0 and N1 groups. The COX proportional risk model was used to evaluate whether N stage was an independent risk factor affecting prognosis. Count data were expressed as cases and percentage(%), and Chi-square test was used for comparison between the groups. Results:Among all patients, the OS of patients in the N0 group was better than that of patients in the N1 group. The OS of N0 patients at 1, 3, and 5 years was 96.3%, 92.7%, and 85.6%, respectively, while the OS of N1 patients at 1, 3, and 5 years was 92.6%, 82.1%, and 82.1%, respectively ( P=0.014). Multivariate analysis showed that age ( HR=2.245, 95% CI: 1.126-4.475, P=0.022) and N stage ( HR=0.457, 95% CI: 0.237-0.883, P=0.020) were independent prognostic factors for G2 phase pNEN patients. Conclusion:Lymph node metastasis is one of the independent prognostic factors in patients with G2 phase stage pNEN.
