Objective To investigate apoptosis of polymorphonuclear neutrophil and activity of caspase-3 in the peripheral blood and discuss their correlation with development of multiple organ dysfunc- tion syndrome (MODS) after multiple injury. Methods A total of 55 patients with multiple injury were included in the prospective study, and divided into two groups, ie, MODS group (multiple injury patients who developed MODS,) and non-MODS group (multiple injury patients who were free from MODS). The activity of caspase-3 was detected by flow cytometry and the serum levels of IL-6 and IL-10 were detected by ELISA. Then, we evaluated whether the neutrophil apoptesis was correlated with the ser- um levels of IL-6 and IL-10 in patients with MODS. Results Compared with non-MODS group, neu- trophil apoptesis was significantly reduced and activated caspase-3 decreased significantly in MODS group (P <0.05). In MODS group, serum IL-6 was increased significantly while serum IL-10 was decreased significantly compared with non-MODS group. The apoptosis of neutrophil in multiple injury patients with MODS had a negative correlation with IL-6 levels but a positive correlation with IL-10 levels. Conclu- sions The delayed apoptosis of neutrophil due to decreased activated caspase-3 may play partial roles in the development of MODS after multiple injury. IL-6 and IL-10 may contribute to the apoptotic changes.

ObjectiveTo study the risk factors and pathogenic characteristics of ventilator associated pneumonia(YAP). MethodsRisk factors of VAP,pathogens and drug resistance in 118 patients in ICU were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsThe incidence of VAP was 44.9％, and age, the mechanical ventilation time, state of consciousness,tracheotomy,the antibiotic combination are risk factors of incidence of VAP. 53cases of VAP(68.2％ )were infected by Gram negative bacilli,25.9％ were by Gram positive cocci,and 5.9％ were by fungi. Drug resistance was observed obviously. ConclusionThe occurrence of VAP was related with multiple factors. The gram negative bacteria are the major pathogens of VAP, and the rate of drug resistance was high. The occurrence of VAP could severely affect patients' prognosis.

AIM: To study the effect of double gene transduction mediated by lentiviral vectors on the characteristics of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). METHODS: Using the backbone from inducibal dual and excisable transgene vector (iDuet101) , lentiviral vectors overexpressing cytotoxic T lymphocyte - associated molecule - 4 immuno-globulin (iDuet101 - CTLA4Ig) , indoleamine 2, 3 dioxygenase (iDuet101 - IDO) , and ubiquitin - C promoter - lueifer-ase - ires - puromycin ( ULIP) were constructed and packaged according to the standard recombinant techniques. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) were first transduced with iDuet101, iDuet101 - CTLA4Ig or iDuet101 - IDO, then, after the selection, were transduced again with ULIP. The expression and function of the exogenous genes were detected. Immu-nohistochemistry, RT - PCR and flow cytometry were applied for detection of embryoid bodies ( EB) formation in vitro and in vivo teratoma formation. RESULTS: Double - transduced hESCs showed typical shape of cell clones and positive staining of tumor rejection antigen -1 - 60 ( Tra -1 - 60 ) and octomer transcription factor - 4 ( OCT - 4 ). The formation of EB was observed, in which a - fetoprotein (AFP), paired box gene 6 ( Pax6) and Musashi 1 ( MSI1) were positively expressed. The cells formed teratomas, and the luciferase signals existed until 28 days after xeno - transplantation. CONCLUSION : Double transduction of non - transcriptional factors mediated by lentiviral vectors does not affect the cell growth rate and their differentiation ability.

[Objective]To compare the clinical outcomes of fresh embryo transfer of the in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection and embryo transfer(IVF/ICSI-ET)in different age groups as well as in different responders using gonadotropin-re-leasing hormone agonist(GnRH-a)long protocol or GnRH antagonist(GnRH-ant)protocol.[Methods]A retrospective analysis was performed on 737 IVF/ICSI cycles,including 386 cycles of GnRH-a long protocol(group A)and 351 cycles of GnRH-ant protocol (group B),from August 28,2015 to December 31,2016. Then all the cycles were divided into sub-groups by ages and retrieved oo-cyte numbers:group a1(<38 years),group a2(≥38 years);group b1(n≤5),group b2(6≤n≤15),group b3(n>15). The basic information of patients and clinical outcomes were compared.[Results](1)Comparable results were obtained from group A and group B in these following variables such as fertilization rate,normal fertilization rate,biochemical pregnancy rate and miscarriage rage. But the stimulation period,the total gonadotropin(Gn)dosage,estradiol(E2)level and endometrial thickness on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG)administration,number of oocytes retrieved and mature oocytes,ovarian hyperstimulation syn-drome(OHSS)rate,implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate were significantly higher in group A than group B(P<0.05),and significantly higher cancellation rate of fresh embryo transfer was observed in group B(P<0.001).(2)When divided by ages,no mat-ter in sub-group a1 or sub-group a2,the implantation rate was slightly lower in GnRH-ant protocol than in GnRH-a long protocol, although they failed to reach significant difference(sub-group a1:32.6%vs 39.8%,P=0.067;sub-group a2:9.7%vs 17.9%,P=0.066). The clinical pregnancy rate was comparable using these two protocols in sub-group a1(54.8%vs 50.4%,P=0.429),but it was significantly lower by using GnRH-ant protocol than GnRH-a long protocol in sub-group a2(19.6%vs 39.1%,P=0.021).(3) When divided by numbers of oocytes retrieved,the implantation rate was significantly lower when using GnRH-ant protocol in sub-group b1(13.1%vs 26.0%,P=0.026),but we failed to observe significant differences in other two sub-groups. The clinical preg-nancy rates were comparable in all sub-groups ,whereas differed considerably in sub-group b1 (36.6% vs 19.3%,P = 0.056).[Conclusion]Overall,the implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate were higher in GnRH-a long protocol than those in GnRH-ant protocol. Nevertheless,GnRH-ant protocol could reduce the dosage of Gn,shorten the treatment duration,and effectively reduce the occurrence of OHSS. There were similar pregnancy outcomes in two protocols for normal responders and high responders ,while for advanced patients or other poor responders,the implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate were higher in GnRH-a protocol.

Objective Extracorporeal shock wave therapy ( ESWT ) can promote angiogenesis and collateral circulation es-tablishment by introducing shock waves to ischemia myocardium , however , the specific mechanisms remain unclearly .The study aimed to explore the effects of 0.09mJ/mm2 shock wave treatment on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and Interleukin-8 (IL-8) expressions. Methods There were an experimental group and a control group in the experiment .The tubes of the experiment group were set in shock wave devices without the treatment of shock waves .As for the experiment group, 0, 0.03, 0.09, 0.18, 0.24 mJ/mm2 shock waves were introduced , followed by the addition of CCK8 solution and the measurement of A value at the wavelength of 450nm by microplate reader .The HUVEC cell lines were performed 0.09 mJ/mm2 ultrasonic shock energy , CCK8 colorimetric method were utilized to detect the HUVEC proliferation , real time PCR and flow cytometry were applied to detect the expressions of VEGF and IL-8 mRNA respectively . Results ① CCK8 colorimetric method revealed that 0.09 mJ/mm2 shock energy markedly promoted the HU-VEC proliferation compared with the control group , with A450 value comparison (0.70 ±0.04 vs 0.54 ±0.09, P<0.05 ), while no sta-tistical significance was found in 0.03, 0.18, 0.24 mJ/mm2 shock energy compared with the control group ( P >0.05 ).②RT-PCR showed that the 0.09 mJ/mm2 energy significantly enhanced the expressions of VEGF and IL-8 mRNA compared with the control group (7.93 ±0.90 vs 1.07 ±0.40, 7.34 ±1.67 vs 1.00 ±0.09, P<0.001).③Flow Cytometry showed that the expressions of VEGF and IL-8 mRNA significantly increased after 0.09 mJ/mm2 ESWT compared with the control group (39.89 ±4.79 vs 20.98 ±3.30, 31.33 ± 5.61 vs 22.60 ±3.76, P<0.05). Conclusion Low-energy ESWs can surely promote HUVEC proliferation and increase the expres-sions of VEGF and IL-8, and the up-regulation of VEGF and IL-8 may play an important role in the promotion of angiogenesis by ESWT .

Objective To observe the functional connectivity (FC) pattern linking the hippocampus with the rest of the brain in ischemic stroke patients with cognitive dysfunction,especially the default mode network (DMN).Methods Resting-state functional connectivity magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was performed on 15 ischemic stroke patients with cognitive dysfunction (the patient group) and 10 normal elderly controls.The bilateral hippocampus was the region of interest.Correlation analyses yielded a mapping of cerebral functional connectivity activation for both groups.Results Compared with the healthy controls,the patient group showed weakened functional connectivity between the hippocampus and other regions including the cingulate gyrus,the superior,middle and inferior frontal lobes,the inferior parietal lobule and the superior temporal gyrus.But there was enhanced functional connectivity with the cerebellar posterior lobe,the occipital lobe,the medial temporal lobe,the precuneus and the calcarine.The results were significantly different between the two groups.Conclusion The functional connectivity pattern of the hippocampus is impaired in stroke patients with cognitive dysfunction.Reduced functional connectivity between brain regions may be one cause of cognitive dysfunction after stroke,and enhanced functional connectivity may be an appropriate compensatory mechanism.

Auxiliary liver transplantation reserves whole or part of recipient' native liver while implanting the graft. It call be classified as auxiliary heterotopic liver transplantation and auxiliary orthotopic liver transplantation according to the location of the graft. On the basis of graft volume. it can be categorized as whole liver auxiliary liver transplantation and partial liver auxiliary liver transplantation. Either cadaveric or living donor is available. Because auxiliarg orthotopic liver transplantation is only the partial liver transplantation, so it is also called aunliry orthotopic partial liver transplantation. The. technique of auxiliary liver transplantation progresses with the devehopment of liver transplantation. Great attention is paid to auxiliary liver transplantation because of its special superiority, in spite of some unresolved problems.

Objective To describe the feasibility of biliary reconstruction methods and to explore the preventing and curing methods for biliary complications. Methods A total of 77 cases of living donor liver transplantation were included in our study for retrospective analysis. The operation types included right lobe contain middle hepatic vein (n=29), right lobe without middle hepatic vein (n=45), left lobe (n=1) and left lateral lobe transplantation (n=1). The biliary reconstruction was performed by duct-to-duct and Roux-en-Y epaticojejunostomy. Results Fifty-four grafts had 1 bile duct and 23 had multiple ones. The duct-to-duct biliary reconstruction was performed for 75 adult cases and T-tube drainage was used in 63 patients. Meanwhile, the conventional Roux-en-Y epaticojejunostomy was utilized for 2 pediatric patients. Total biliary complication incidence was 36.4% (28/77) and the complications included bile leakage (10.4%, 8/77) and biliary stricture (26.0%, 20/77).The rate of biliary complication was remarkably different between single hepatic duct group and multiple group (P<0.05). All the 8 patients suffering from bile leakage were cured by percutaneous bile drainage guided by ultrasound. By percutaneous balloon cholangioplasty and placing stent through the T-tube tract or endoscopic retrograde balloon cholangioplasty, the liver function of biliary stricture cases got better and most cases were cured. Conclusion Protecting the blood supply of bile duct at the cutting surface and harvesting one bile duct stump as much as possible can reduce biliary complication effectively. Radiate intervention treatment such as percutaneous balloon cholangioplasty and endoscope treatment etc. are effective for treatment of biliary complications.
