BACKGROUND:Neural stem cells transplanted into the infarct region can promote the recovery of damaged nerve cells after cerebral infarction.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the relevant influential factors of neural stem celltransplantation in the treatment of cerebral infarction.
METHODS:In this paper, we analyzed the experimental studies concerning neural stem celltransplantation for cerebral infarction published in recent years based on database search. There were main two aspects for discussing the progress in neural stem cells and cerebral infarction, the Chinese clinical trial registration and basic experimental studies.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After cerebral infarction, neural stem cellproliferation and differentiation is closely related to the brain microenvironment. Large amount of nerve cellloss can be found in the infarct region. Cytokines can play a role in the neural stem celltransplantation to repair neurological injury after cerebral infarction, and also can induce neural stem cellproliferation, differentiation and migration, including epidermal growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, insulin-like growth factor 1, nerve growth factor, and basic fibroblast growth factor. Acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine can promote the proliferation, migration and differentiation neural stem cells in the subependymal zone after cerebral infarction. Neural stem celltransplantation in the treatment of cerebral infarction has yielded progress, but there are stil many issues that need to be resolved in the future.

Objective To assess the mortality and risk factors for stroke among dialysis patients with different dialysis modality. Methods 590 patients who underwent hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD) from January 2008 to December 2012 were recruited in our study, and categorized according to dialysis modality. The prognostic risks of stroke were hazard ratio of risk was calculated by Cox regression analysis in HD and PD patients respectively. by the Kaplan?Meier curves or the Cox proportional hazards model. Results A total of 590 patients is under a median follow?up of 32.5 months. The stroke incidence rate of 49.2/1, 000 patient?years in total patients, and 74.1/1, 000 patient?years in HD patients, which was significantly higher compared with that of 31.8/1,000 patient?years in PD patients. On multivariate analysis, independent predictors of stroke occurrence were age(HR=1.05;95%CI:1.02~1.09;P=0.003)、diabete(HR=1.98;95%CI:1.31~3.46;P=0.001)、CVD(HR=2.06;95%CI:1.62-3.05;P < 0.001)、Total triglycerides(HR = 1.20; 95% CI:1.08-1.58; P = 0.034) and hemodialysis (HR = 2.03; 95% CI:1.46-3.89; P = 0.005). Conclusions Age, diabete, CVD, total triglycerides and hemodialysis are independently associated with increased stroke risks in dialysis patients, which suggest that these patients should pay attention to weight control and glucose control.

Objective: To analyze the long-term prognosis of re-operation in patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) after left sided valve replacement (LSVR) and hence evaluate the optimal timing of mentioned re-operation. Methods: A total of 59 FTR patients who had re-operation after their prior LSVR in our hospital from 1999-01 to 2013-01 were analyzed. The clinical information and post-operative follow-up results were recorded in all patients. Results: There were 5/59 (8.5%) patients died in peri-operative period and the overall post-operative mortality was 11.9% (7/59). The follow-up data of 54 survivors were available for the mean time of 51.1 (21-188) months. There were 19/54 (35.2%) patients suffered from MACE and 30 (55.6%) were beneifted by improved cardiac function. Uni-variable analysis indicated that pre-operative NYHA class IV (P=0.008), pre-operative right ventricular (RV) dysfunction (P=0.037), concomitant left-sided redo-operation (P=0.017) and TVR operation (P=0.002) were associated with all cause mortality of tricuspid re-operation. Multi-variable Cox regression analysis showed that pre-operative RV dysfunction was the only independent risk factor of long term MACE-free accumulating survival rate (HR=3.0, 95% CI 1.11-8.2,P=0.031); while TVR operation (HR=12.8, 95% CI 1.53-107.02,P=0.019) and pre-operative NYHA class IV (HR=5.3, 95% CI 1.20-24.51,P=0.032) were the independent risk factors for long-term mortality in patients after tricuspid re-operation. Conclusion: Patients with compensatory RV function showed better long term prognosis after secondary tricuspid operation. Aggressive re-operation before the occurrence of right ventricular dysfunction could be beneficial for relevant patients.
