The therapeutic efficacy of large bone defects with traditional methods, such as autograft or allograft and biomaterial filling, is not favorable and hinders the widely clinical application. Bone tissue engineering has provided a promising way to solve this problem, and has become one of the hotspots nowadays. However, the key technology of vascularization has not been solved ideally yet. Obviously, the routine treatment has become a challenge in repairing large bone defect. In order to find a clinically applicable bone tissue engineering approach, we put forward and established a microcirculation system of osteogenesis inducted by perfusion in vivo. The "regulable osteoinduction microcirculation/microenvironment system in vivo (ROIMS)" has characteristics as follows: the culture conditions are controlled. For example, the release of a variety of growth factors can be controlled stably and quantitatively at bone defect site. Early nutrition and revascularization in the center of tissue-engineered bone can be effectively solved; some shortcomings resulted from construction of tissue-engineered bone in vivo, including secondary injury, high level technical requirements, and complex operation, can be avoided; vascularization and osteogenesis can be constructed simultaneously; simple safe and efficient operation. ROIMS perfectly combines in vitro construction and in vivo construction of tissue-engineered bone. Thereby, we can expect that this new type of technology of tissue engineered bone will be used in clinic in a near future and finally repair large segmental bone defects in clinic.

Objective To study the feature of clinical and pathological type of Henoch-Sch(o)nlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) in children.Methods Clinical and pathological data of HSPN in 279 children were collected and retrospectively analyzed.Results Clinical manifestation of HSPN in 279 children with haematuria and proteinuria (107 cases,38.4％) was the most common type,followed by nephritic syndrome type (69 cases,24.7％),isolated proteinuria type (40 cases,14.3％),isolated hematuria type (29 cases,10.4 ％),acute glomerulonephritis type (21 cases,9.3 ％),rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis type (8 cases,2.9％),chronic glomerulonephritis type (5 cases,1.8％).According to the International Study of Kidney Disease in Children,the majority renal pathological type of HSPN were grade Ⅱ (133 cases,47.7％)and grade Ⅲ (109 cases,39.1％).The pathological changes of hematuria and proteinuria type were mainly grade Ⅱ (61 cases,57.0％) and grade Ⅲ (35 cases,32.7％),and the pathological change of nephritic syndrome type was grade Ⅲ (41 cases,59.4％).All of renal pathological changes,38.7％ (108/279) had codeposition of immunoglobulins A and M,30.8％ (86/279) had co-deposition of immunoglobulins A,G and M.The pathological change of nephritic syndrome type was more serious (x2 =35.989,P ＜ 0.05).Immune complex deposition was not correlated with renal pathologic classification (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The HSPN patients mainly show the type of hematuria and proteinuria and the type of nephritic syndrome.The majority renal pathological type of HSPN are grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ.In children with HSPN,the severity of the clinic symptoms is not completely consistent with the pathological changes.The pathological changes of nephritic syndrome type are more serious.To improve theprognosis of HSPN,we should make the treatment planning according to the clinical types and pathologic classification.

Objective To investigate the role of autophagy and synaptophysin (SYP) in cognitive impairment in de?pressed rats receiving electroconvulsive shock (ECS). Methods Clean and healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were acclimatized to a standard laboratory environment for 7 days. The chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) was used to establish the rat model of depression. Behavior tests were conducted before and after CUMS to evaluate the depression and cognition level of rats. After establishment of the model, 24 rats were randomly divided into ESC group (group E) and depression group (group D) with 12 rats in each group. The rats in group E were administered 80 mg/kg of propofol (10 mg/mL) by intraperitoneal injection, followed by ECS treatment. The rats in group D were administered propofol by intra?peritoneal injection, followed by sham-ECS treatments. The above interventions were conducted daily for 7 consecutive days. After the interventions, rats underwent behavior tests as before. Subsequently, rats were killed and specimens were collected for measurements. Immunohistochemistry was performed to examine autophagy markers such as Beclin 1 and LC3Ⅱand ELISA was used to detect SYP in the hippocampus. Results Group E after ECS significantly increased the percentage of sucrose preference (68.2%±8.7%), rearing times (7.0±1.9), total horizontal distance [(569.5±70.0) cm], es? cape latency [(21.9±5.3)s] and space exploration time [(20.5±3.9)s] compared with group D or group E before ECS. There was no significant difference in these index between groups before ECS or in group E between before and after ECS(P>0.05). Compared with group D, group E had upregulated protein expression levels of Beclin 1 and LC3Ⅱin CA1, CA3, DG as well as the area near the hippocampus and increased SYP contents (P<0.05). Conclusions Cognitive impairment in depression rats following ECS correlates with activated autophagy and increased SYP by ECS.

Objective To explore the feasibility of coelocentesis in prenatal diagnosis.Methods Coelocentesis were applied on 58 women scheduled for at 6～12 weeks of gestation,and fetal heart rate before the procedure and 1,5,30 minutes afterwards and hemorrhage of amnionic cyst was observed.Y gene of sex-determining region was detected by polymerase chain reaction,and compared with chorionic villi sample.Results The total achievement ratio of coelocentesis was 96.6% of all cases in five minutes.The coelomic fluid was successfully aspirated at first attempt in 93.2% at 7～10 week's gestation,25.0% at 6～7weeks and 50.0% at 10 ~ 12 weeks.There was no significant difference in FHR between before coelocentesis and afterwards (P＞0.05).The detection accurate rate of SRY was 91.1%,all female fetus were matched with those observation by chorionic villi sampling,and only 5 male fetus were not matched,the accurate rate was 80.8%.Conclusion Coclocentesis has the advantage of simple procedure,safe and high feasibility.The optimal time of coclocentesis is in the 7th to 10th week of gestation.
