BACKGROUND:Pancreatic islet transplantationviaportal vein system leads to the apoptsis of a number of islet cels due to local hypoxia,therebyaffecting transplant outcomes. OBJECTIVE:To explore theeffect ofpre-micrvascularization network of tissue-engineered constructs on the survival of transplanted islets and the feasibility of xenogenic islet transplantation. METHODS:A 5-mm-long cylindrical silicone tube filed with Matrigel TM matrix surrounding the superficial epigastric vessel was placed in the groin ofdiabetic mice. After the syngeneic islets with 300 islet equivalents (IEQ) were transplanted into the silicone chamber on days 0, 14 and 28 post-chamber implantation, respectively, the recovery time of blood glucose was observed. The islets with the quantity of 100 IEQ, 200 IEQ and 300 IEQ, respectively, were transplanted on day 28 post-implantation and then the blood glucoselevelwas determined. Moreover, the survival of human pancreatic islets with 1 000 IEQ transplanted into the pre-vascularizated chamber or under the renal capsule of diabetic mice, folowed by the treatment of anti-CD45RB and/or anti-CD40L (MR-1) was analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:An abundant micro-vascularized network was established in the silicone chamber on day 28 post-implantation. The time of the blood glucose returningto normal level in diabetic mice was negatively correlated with the time required for pre-vascularization and the number of implanted islets. No islet grafts implanted in the silicone chamber and treated by anti-CD45RB survived for long term. However, one of seven (14.3%) grafts survived for long term, which was not significantly different from the transplantation under the renal capsule group (n=8, MST > 71 days,P> 0.05). The tissue-engineered pre-vascularization network markedly extends the survival time of the islet grafts before transplantation. The transplantation of the xenogenic pancreatic islets into the vascularized silicone chamber might be a promising method in the future clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids.Methods To retrospectively anabpe the clinical data of 61 patients with procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids of Inner Mongolia medical school affiliated hospitals form 2002 to 2009.Results The average time of operation was 20～30 minutes.After operation,2 cases appeared urine retention,2 cases appeared bleeding and 1 case appeared prolapse lightly.The average time of being hospitalized was 5 days.The curative effect of allpatients was well after 1～6 years follow-up.Conclusion It was a safe and effective method to use procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids,but the longterm curative effect of it still need further observation.

ObjectiveTo observe the intraoperative techniques of artificial nasolacrimal duct and evaluate the effectiveness.MethodForty-nine cases(56 eyes) ofchronic dacryocystitis underwent artificial nasolacrimal duct placement.The artificial nasolacrimal duct was dilated and the stent was retrogradely placed.Dacryocystography was performed before operation.ResultsArtificial nasolacrimal duct placement was technically successful in 53 eyes(94.64％),improvement rate was 3.57 ％ (2/56).The total effective rate was 98.21％(55/56) after operation.ConclusionInterventional artificial nasolacrimal duct placement is a safe,simple and effective method for the treatment of chronic dacryocystitis.

Objective To investigate the elimination effect of propofol on the reactive oxygen species(ROS) in patients with acute craniocerebral injury (ACI). Methods Forty patients with ACI were randomly divided into propofol group receiving propofol anesthesia and ?-OH group as control . Electron spin resonance(ESR) spectroscopy was used to determine the plasma contents of oxygen free radical (OFR), and the plasma contents of lipid peroxides(LPO) and nitrogen oxide (NO) were determined with chemical method. Blood samples were collected before anesthesia and 2, 4 hours after starting operation. Results The plasma contents of NO, OFR and LPO significantly increased before operation in patients with ACI compared with healthy subjects(all P

Objective To investigate the effects of angiopioetins and tyrosine kinase receptor Tie-2 ,vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)on the angiogenesis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Methods With the methods of RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry, the specimens from 28 HCC patients, 10 cirrhotics, and 10 normal livers were analysed, and the relationship between angiopioetins, VEGF (expression) and the clinical pathological characteristics of HCC was studied. Results Ang/Tie-2 and VEGF were significantly up-regulated in HCC compared to cirrhotic tissue and normal liver tissue. (Immunohistochemical) staining also showed increased expression of Ang-2,VEGF,Tie-2 protein in HCC. A high Ang-2/Ang-1mRNA ratio and high VEGF in HCC were closely associated with tumor vascular invasion and microvascular density level which assesssed by CD34. Conclusions Ang /Tie-2 and VEGF may play critical roles in promoting tumor angiogenesis and progression in human HCC.

Object To study the chemical constituents of the root bark of Lycium chinense Mill Methods Various chromatographic techniques were used to separate and purify the constituents Their structures were elucidated on the physico chemical properties and spectral data Results Five compounds were isolated from the root bark of L chinense and identified as vanillic acid (Ⅰ), apigenin (Ⅱ), linarin (Ⅲ), glucosyringic acid (Ⅳ) and digupigan A (Ⅴ) Conclusion Digupigan A is a new compound. Except vanillic acid, others were isolated from this plant for the first time

Objective To estimate the quality and efficacy of the academic thesis of compound anisodine in traumatic optic neuropathies(TON)treatment. Method We searched Chinese database last or"blunt trauma"as key words,and analyzed them using the standard of evidence-based medicine(EBM).Result 6 RCTS with a total of 415 eyes included are retrieved,and the OR value is 6.54 with a 95%CI of[4.14,10.35],P＜0.00001,the difference is significant;sub-category analyses are made and both show significant difference(P＜0.0001). Conclusion The existing evidence supports that prognosis of TON is better when compound anisodine are adopt in treatment,and this effect is significant in steroid treatment.Compound anisodine can be used alone for TON treatment.However.because there are only 6 thesis are retrieved and all of them have methodological short-comings,the evidence is not convincing.There is an urgent need of well-planed,large-scale and multiple-center studies to assess the role of compound anisodine in traumatic optic neuropathies treatment.

Complicated bile duct injury greatly affects quality of patients' life and even threatens their life safety because it is difficult to be recognized and reconstructed,also with the poor surgical effect.Regarding to the surgical timing of complicated bile duct injury,it still have a big controversy.Here we would discuss the timing of surgeries for bile duct injury.We consider that it should be reconstructed when it is recognized during operation,even converted to laparotomy for laparoscopic surgeries.About postoperative cases,we think that it should be operated to explore damage range and reconstruct for those cases found within 48 hours and without obvious infection.However,reconstruction should be performed after 6 weeks for those found after 48 hours or with biliary duct infection.

Objective To evaluate the quality of life (QoL) in patients undergone intravesical chemotherapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer and analyze the correlation of the quality of life and low urinary tract symptoms in this group of patients.Methods 31 male patients and 15 female patients were enrolled from Jan.2012 to Mar.2013.The average age was 54 (35-71) years.Questionnaires of QoL and core lower urinary tract symptom score (CLSS) were given to 46 patients before intravesical chemotherapy and the 1 st,6th month after starting the instillation.Before the instillation,the scores of QoL and CLSS were 55.7±6.2 and 6.5±2.1,respectively,the change of QoL and CLSS were compared to baseline,and then the correlation of the low urinary tract symptoms and quality of life was analyzed.Results At the end of 1st and 6th month,the QoL scores were 74.7±8.1 and 78.5± 10.6.The CLSS scores were 8.9±2.0 and 9.1 ± 1.8,respectively.The differences were significant (P ＜0.05) when compared to the baselines.The areas of working activity and free time were affected much more than other areas,and the scores increased from 8.3±2.1 and 19.2±5.7 to 14.3±5.6 and 23.7±4.2,respectively.The area of free time was found to be associated with local symptoms (r=0.61).Conclusions Intravesical treatment can impair the QoL of patients.Low urinary tract symptom is an important factor and is associated with impairment of QoL,suggesting the relief of local symptoms may improve the overall quality of life.
