Objective To study the effect of revised trauma score (RTS) in the rescue of patients with multiple trauma emergency application. Methods According to the admission time, 56 multiple trauma patients were assigned into the control group, and another 58 into the observation group. The control group was treated with traditional pre-hospital and hospital emergency care. The observation group with pre-hospital emergency care and hospital based on the RTS results. The two groups were compared in terms of effective treatment time and complications.

To investigate effect of the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in combination with nerve growth factor (NGF) on the repair of spinal cord injury (SCI) in adult rats, spinal cord of adult rats (n= 32) was injured by using the modified Allen's method. One week after the injury, the injured cords were injected with Dubecco-modified Eagles medium (DMEM, Group I), MSCs (Group II), NGF (Group III), and MSCs plus NGF (Group IV). One month and two months after the injury, rats were sacrificed and their injured cord tissues were sectioned for the identification of the transplanted cells. The axonal regeneration and the differentiation of MSCs were examined by immunocytochemical staining. At the same time, rats were subjected to behavioral tests by using the open-field BBB scoring system. Immunocytochemical staining showed that axonal regeneration and the transplanted cells partially expressed neuron-specific nuclear protein (NeuN) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). At the same time, significant improvement in BBB locomotor rating scale (P<0. 05) were observed in the treatment group. More importantly, further functional improvement were noted in the combined treatment group. MSCs could differentiate into neurons and astrocytes. MSCs and NGF can promote axonal regeneration and improve functional recovery. There might exist a synergistic effect between MSCs and NGF.

Objective To observe the influence state of asarone injection for the pulmonary surfactant proteins and oxygen supply state of newborns with pneumonia. Methods 72 newborns with pneumonia were selected as the study object, and they were randomly divided into control group (36 cases) and observation group (36 cases), the control group were treated with conventional treatment of pneumonia, the observation group were treated with asarone injection on the treatment method of control group, then the pulmonary surfactant protein indexes, oxygenation function indexes and blood gas analysis of two groups before and after the treatment were respectively detected and compared. Results The pulmonary surfactant protein indexes, oxygenation function indexes and blood gas analysis of two groups before the treatment all had no significant differences, while the pulmonary surfactant protein indexes, oxygenation function indexes and blood gas analysis of observation group at first, second and fifth day after the treatment were all significantly better than those of control group, all P<0.05, there were all significant differences. Conclusion The asarone injection can significantly improve the pulmonary surfactant proteins and oxygen supply of newborns with pneumonia, so its application value in the treatment of newborns with pneumonia is higher.

Objective To investigate the value of CT and MRI in diagnosing nasopharyngeal angiofibromas.Methods 18 cases of nasopharyngeal angiofibromas were retrospectively analyzed including the location, density ,signal intensity, extension of tumors and changes of surrounding bones.Results 16 cases located in the area around sphenopalatine foramen. 6 cases exhibited homogeneous density on CT scans(6/11 cases) and 12 cases displayed inhomogeneous signal intensity on MR scans(12/14 cases). All the Fourteen MRI examinations revealed vice signal by vessels, inhomogeneous enhancement and extensive invasion along the foramina or fissures.Conclusion MRI not only determines the location and traces out the extension of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma more exactly, but also displayes its diagnostic signal fashion. Namely MRI has greater value in diagnosing this tumor than CT.

BACKGROUND: The precartilaginous stern cells are limited regarding in vitro proliferative capacity, but the immortalized cell lines can provide a large number of stable immortalized cells, and simian virus 40 large T antigen gene (SV40Tag) is one of gene fragments which are commonly used and effective in vitro immortalized ceils. OBJECTIVE: To construct human immortalized precartilaginous stem cells (IPSCs) using human precartilaginous stem calls induced by SV40LTAg gane. METHODS: The human immortalized precartilaginous stem calls were isolated from aborted fetus and purified with enzyme digestion and immunomagnetic beads screening method. By using liposome-mediated gene transfection technology, plasmid pCMVSV40T/PUR containing SV40Tag was transfected in primary embryonic precartilaginous stem cells, while non-transfected cells sewed as negative controls. Positive clones were cultured to observe the cell morphology and the passage recovery, to calculate cell survival rata and population doubling time, to drew call growth curve. Immunofluorescence cytochemistry was used to detect the expression of IPSCs fibroblast growth factor receptor 3, the expressions of SV40Tag and fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 in the human precartilaginous stem cells were determined by RT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Morphology of human IPSCs seemed coincidence with primary human precartilaginous stem cells. The survival rate of human IPSCs was not influenced by subculture, freezing and recovery, but the survival rate was descended in the human precartilaginous stem cells at the 6~(th) and 10~(th) passages (P < 0.01). Compared with cells at the 6~(th) and 10~(th) passages, the proliferation of human IPSCs was greater, with short population doubling time and high growth rate (P < 0.01). The immunofluorescence showed that fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 was positive in human IPSCs at the second passage, and the RT-PCR results of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 revealed a specific amplification band at 400 bp,.while that of SV40Tag revealed at 560 bp. No band was seen in the primary cells. It is indicated that SV40Tag human IPSCs can be constructed successfully using immunomagnatic bead screening technology and liposome transfection technique.

Immortalized human precartilaginous stem cells (IPSCs) were established to provide stable cell resource for the study of the molecular mechanism of gene targeting on the differentiation of PSCs. Plasmid pCMVSV40T/PUR containing simian virus 40 large T antigen gene (SV40Tag) was transfected into human PSCs by using lipofectin transfection. Colonies were isolated by puromycin selection and expanded by multiple passages. Immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR and Southern blotting were used to identify the transfected cells and to detect the expression and integration of SV40Tag in expanded cell lines. The positive colonies were isolated and subcultured, designated immortalized precartilaginous stem cells (IPSCs), which were confirmed as fibroblast growth factor receptor-3 (FGFR-3) positive cells by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. SV40Tag cDNA was found in cultured IPSCs of passage 8 by Southern blotting, and the expressions of SV40Tag mRNA and protein were confirmed by RT-PCR. These findings suggested that IPSCs strain with SV40Tag was constructed successfully.
