Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm), a temperature-responsive polymer, can be potentially applied to replace enzymes or cell scrapers to recover attached cells. Taking full advantage of this unique function of PNIPAAm, cells can be protected from enzymatic hydrolysis and mechanical treatment, thereby to provide ideal seed cells with high quality for biomedical fields. In this review we describe the method to facilitate cell effective adhesion and rapid detachment on thermoresponsive two dimensional surfaces, including selecting special substrate, introducing hydrophilic group, adjusting reactant ratio, controlling polymer thickness/density, providing appropriate external force, so as to effectively improve adherent cell adaptability to thermoresponsive surfaces, depress the risk of bacterial contamination and reduce the effect of low-temperature treatment on the cells. The three dimensional cell culture systems involved in temperature-sensitive microcarriers, scaffolds and gels were briefly discussed. The application based on the platforms for cell culture was also presented.

Objective To investigate the usage of oral cardio-cerebrovascular Chinese patent medicine in Tiantan Community Health Service Center of Beijing (hereinafter referred to as “the centre”) during 2010-2015. Methods Varieties, dosage and sales amount of oral cardio-cerebrovascula Chinese patent medicine during 2010-2015 were analyzed through hospital information system database of the centre. DDDs, DDC and B/A values were calculated. Results Oral cardio-cerebrovascular Chinese patent medicine accounted for 23.67% of all kinds of medicine during 2010-2015. The average annual growth rate of the amount of sales was 11.96%, accounting for 48.73% of total sales. DDDs showed an upward trend over six years, including DDDs of Compound Danshen Dirpping Pills ranking the first. DDC and B/A also showed the daily cost of most of oral cardio-cerebrovascular Chinese patent medicine was less than 10 yuan. B/A value was approximately equal to 1, indicating that these kinds of medicine had better synchronization, and high frequency of usage. Oral cardio-cerebrovascular Chinese patent medicine dominated in all kinds of Chinese patent medicine during 2010-2015, which was related to the reason that most patients were old people. The frequentness during 2010-2015 in the centre did not changed much, and the structure was relatively stable. Conclusion The usage of oral cardio-cerebrovascular Chinese patent medicine in the center is reasonable, with some problems, which need to be further supervised.

Objective To evaluate the performance of trilobed flaps for reconstruction of nasal tip defects. Methods Totally, 23 patients with nasal tip defects after tumor resection were enrolled into this study. Skin defects varied from 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm to 2.5 cm × 2.5 cm in size. According to the location and size of skin defects, trilobed flaps were designed, and the angle between two lobes ranged from 45° to 50°. The size of the first lobe was approximately equal to that of the skin defect, while the size of the second and third lobes decreased successively. During flap design, the integrity of nasal subunits was sufficiently considered, and the incision lines were placed along the boundary lines of the nasal subunit as far as possible, so as to conceal the incision scar with natural skin folds. Results After the operation, skin flaps survived with primary healing of incisions in all the patients. After 6 - 24 months of follow up, the color, texture and thickness of flaps were similar to those of their surrounding skin, and incision scars were inconspicuous. No malformation occurred in the nasal ala, nostril, nasal columella or surrounding organs, and satisfactory nasal appearance and function were achieved. Conclusion Trilobed flaps can be used to effectively repair relatively large skin defects of the nasal tip with satisfactory nasal appearance and function.

AIM: To investigate the clinical effect for treating bullous keratopathy ( BK ) by anterior corneal stromal acupuncture combined with amniotic membrane transplantation.
METHODS: Totally 35 patients ( 35 eyes ) with bullous keratopathy were treated by corneal stromal acupuncture combined with amniotic membrane transplantation. All patients preoperative and postoperative underwent anterior segment OCT, corneal topography, corneal sensitivity and confocal microscopy. To observe postoperative ocular symptoms in patients with BK, recurrence of bulla, changes in corneal thickness, corneal sensitivity and changes in the organizational structure of the layers of the cornea.
RESULTS: Thirty-five were followed up for 6-18mo. The symptom of pain disappeared in 32 cases ( 91%) in the first day after operation and did not recur during follow-up. The symptom of pain relieved in 3 cases (9%) in the first day after operation and disappeared in 3 days. Corneal epithelium of 9 cases ( 26%) were all healed within 1wk, 21 cases (60%) were all healed within 2wk, and 5 cases (14%) were all healed within 3wk. Following up for 6-18mo, there was no recurrence of symptoms or bulla. A small amount of tiny bubbles in the surrounding area appeared in 2 cases after 3 and 4wk. All patients had no neovascularization, and had smooth corneal surface. The amnions of 30 cases (86%) were thinning after 2mo, partially dissolved and absorped, not seen with the naked eye after 3mo. Thirty-four cases (97%) had no changes in vision, one case (3%) was from the light to front of the manual. After 2mo, corneal sensation decreased in 30 cases ( 86%) , corneal thickness increased from preoperative 788±35μm to 940±43μm. After 12mo, corneal thickness increased to 1060±27μm. Results of confocal microscopy: after 3mo, the number density of the trigeminal nerve fibers under corneal basement membrane reduced, shallow stromal cells became into fibrotic stroma, deep stroma was more loose, and cells swelled significantly. The number of endothelial cells reduced and form swelled more obviously compared with preoperatively.
CONCLUSION: Corneal acupuncture combined with amniotic membrane transplantation can effectively control the symptoms of BK, prevent the recurrence of BK, and especially it is a simple, safe and practical way for patients with poor visual function.
