Objective: To propose reasonable suggestions to promote the standardization of clinical studies by reviewing the systematic reviews and meta-analyses of acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of essential hypertension (EH). Methods: Computer retrieval was conducted through Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chongqing VIP Database (CQVIP), China Biology Medicine Disc (CBM), and Wanfang Academic Journal Full-text Database (Wanfang) to collect systematic reviews and meta-analyses relevant to treating EH with acupuncture-moxibustion therapy. The time range was from the database's inception till July, 2020. The studies were screened based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria and then data-extracted. The study's quality and evidence ratings were performed by referring to the preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis (PRISMA), a measurement tool to assess systematic reviews 2 (AMSTAR 2), and the grading of recommendations, assessment, development, and evaluation (GRADE). Results: A total of 14 studies, 10 in Chinese and 4 in English, published between 2012 and 2019, were included, involving 70 outcome measures. The methodological quality was rated as critically low, the reporting was relatively complete or had certain flaws, and the evidence strength was rated as low or very low. Conclusion: Regarding the acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of EH, the methodological quality and outcome measure evidence of existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses are relatively low, and the reporting quality also expects further improvements.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication following orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.The aim of the current study was to determine the risk factors for AKI in patients undergoing OLT.A total of 103 patients who received OLT between January 2015 and May 2016 in Tongji Hospital,China,were retrospectively analyzed.Their demographic characteristics and perioperative parameters were collected,and AKI was diagnosed using 2012 Kidney Disease:Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) staging criteria.It was found that the incidence of AKI was 40.8％ in this cohort and AKI was significantly associated with body mass index,urine volume,operation duration (especially ＞ 480 min),and the postoperative use of vasopressors.It was concluded that relative low urine output,long operation duration,and the postoperative use of vasopressors are risk factors for AKI following OLT.

Assessment of liver function reserve has important clinical significance,which can be used to decide the safe range of liver resection,to identify the potential liver injury early,to evaluate the treatment effect and to predict the prognosis of middle/end-stage liver diseases.There are a number of methods to assess liver function reserve.The indocyanine green (ICG) elimination test is the most commonly used and widely acknowledged approach for this assessment.With the development of functional imaging,evaluation of liver function reserve can be non-or minimalinvasive,more convenient and accurate.The application of imaging in assessment of liver function reserve and the relationship with ICG elimination test were reviewed in this article.

Objective To analyze the changes of portal venous velocity (PVV) ratio (PVVR) in different degrees of portal vein stenosis (PVS) following 70％ partial hepatectomy (PH) in rats.Methods According to different surgical methods,102 SD rats were randomly subjected into sham operation rats group (n=6),non PVS group,mild,moderate and severe PVS group (each group n=24).Models of 70％ PH without PV ligation were established in non-PVS group,while in PVS groups were produced with partially ligating PV in different degrees following 70％ PH.PVV was measured 1,3,7 and 14 days after operation,and PVVR was calculated in PVS groups.Combined with mitotic index (MI) 3 days after operation and liver regeneration degree (LRD) 7 days after operation,the changes of PVVR in different groups were analyzed.Results MI of non-PVS and moderate PVS groups were significantly higher than that of mild PVS group (both P＜0.05),while of severe PVS group was significantly lower than that of moderate PVS group (P＜0.05).LRD of severe PVS group was significantly lower than that of non PVS and moderate PVS groups (both P＜0.05).In non-PVS group,PVV decelerated to the lowest 3 days after operation,and recovered 7 and 14 days.In PVS groups,PVVR decelerated to the lowest 7 days after operation,and recovered until 14 days.PVVR of severe PVS group was significantly higher than that of mild and moderate PVS groups 1 and 3 days after operation (all P＜0.05),while there was no statistical differences among PVS groups 7 and 14 days after operation (all P＞0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound can well demonstrate blood flow changes of PVS following 70％ PH in rats.Changes of PVVR may relate to pathological changes in hepatocytes,the nuclear division and the volume of regenerated liver in rats.

BACKGROUND: Increasing studies have shown that cell-sheet engineering is a more promising method for the treatment of myocardial infarction. OBJECTIVE: To construct sandwich-like myocardial cell sheets with electrospun chitosan-collagen membrane as support membrane and with adipose-derived stem cells as seed cells. METHODS: In this study, we prepared electrospun chitosan-collagen membranes at different mass ratio (7:3, 5:5) as a support membrane. Adipose-derived stem cells at passage 4 that were cultured in a thermo-sensitive petri dish for 3 days were seeded onto the two kinds of electrospun membranes at 20 ℃ for 15 minutes until the cell sheets rolled up. Then, the electrospun membranes and cell sheets with the cell layers facing up were placed together onto another thermo-sensitive petri dish in which adipose-derived stem cells were confluent completely. After 30 minutes of culture, the cell sheets were cultured in myocardial cell medium. Two weeks later, cell morphology was observed using multi-photon microscopy. Immunocytochemistry, western blot and flow cytometry were used to detect the expression of TnI and Cx43 in the myocardium. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect cardiomyocyte-specific gene expression. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: From the results of scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and propidium iodide (PI) staining, we could found that ADSCs grew easily on the chitosan-collagen (5:5) membrane, and there were more dead cells on the chitosan-collagen (7:3) membrane than on the chitosan-collagen (5:5) membrane. After 2 weeks of differentiation with the myocardial cell medium, higher troponin I and Cx43 protein expressions were observed on the chitosan-collagen (5:5) membrane (P＜0.05). Moreover, the mRNA levels of α-skA, β-MHC, TnI, Cx43, ANP, GATA-4 and Nkx2.5 were higher in the chitosan-collagen (5:5) membrane group than the chitosan-collagen (7:3) membrane group. All these results indicate that the chitosan-collagen (5:5) membrane is better for the growth and differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells, as well as for sandwich-like cell-sheet construction.

OBJECTIVETo study the changes of body composition in females patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related lipodystrophy (LD) syndrome (HIV-LD).

METHODSTotally 25 female patients who were treated in our hospital from January 2002 to December 2009 were divided into LD group and non-LD group based on the existence of LD. All these patients were receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). In addition, 12 healthy women were set as the controls. Total and regional body composition were measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry in all three groups.

RESULTSThe fat mass (FM) was correlated negatively with the duration of HAART (r=-0.431, P=0.029). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that FM had positive correlation with weight and negative correlation with lean mass (LM) (r = - 0. 973, P =0. 000). Total, trunk and leg FM were significantly lower in LD patients than that in controls (P <0.05).Meanwhile, total, trunk and leg bone mineral contents were statistically lower in LD patients than that in controls (P <0. 05). Lumbar bone mineral density of LD patients was lower than that of non-LD patients and controls, and there was significant difference between LD patients and controls (P = 0. 001). LM of LD patients was higher than that of non-LD patients but without statistical difference (P > 0. 05).

CONCLUSIONSThe peripheral and central FM and bone mineral contents remarkably decrease in female patients with HIV-LD. How-ever, HIV-LD patients tend to have higher LM than non-LD patients. .
