Objective To establish the model of pancreatoduodenal allotransplantation in pigs with enteric drainage (ED) and portal venous drainage (PVD). Methods Forty-six hybrid landraces were divided into two groups (donor and recipient groups) randomly, for pancreatoduodenal allotransplantation. Donors were perfused via abdomial aorta without clamping the portal venous outflow with UW solution after heparinization. Whole pancreatoduodenal graft was harvested with segments of abdomial aorta and portal vein and shaped under cold UW solution. Then, the end-to-end anastomosis was performed with the donor iliac artery bifurcation “Y” graft to the recipient superior mesenteric arteries and celiac artery. Furthermore, type Ⅰdiabete model was made by removal of the recipient pancreas. The venous anastomosis was reconstructed between the donor portal vein and the recipient superior mesenteric vein. Meanwhile, the end-to-side anastomosis was performed with the donor common iliac artery bifurcation “Y” graft to the recipient abdomial aorta and the side-to-side intestinal anastomosis was performed between the donor duodenum and the recipient jejunum. External jugular vein was intubated for transfusion. The levels of blood glucose, insulin and glucagon in blood were measured before and during the operation and 1, 3, 5, 7 d after operation. Results Twenty-three cases of pancreatoduodenal allotranplantations were performed on pigs. One died from complication of anesthesia. Success rate of operation was 95.7%.Complications of operation happened in 2 cases in which one was phlebothrombosis, incidence 4.5% and the other was duodenojejunal anastomotic leak, incidence 4.5%. The level of blood glucose increased within 30 min and recovered on the 2nd day after removal of pancreas. The levels of insulin and glucagon decreased within 30 min and recovered on the 2nd day after removal of pancreas. Rejection curred at the 1st day and reached the worst level on the 9th day after transplantation without the change of insulin and glucagon in blood and clinical symptoms of rejection. Conclusion Pancreatoduodenal transplantation in pigs can treat type Ⅰ diabete. ED and PVD can keep the function of endocrine in normal. The techni- que of duodenal transplantation with ED and PVD may pave the way for the further development of pancreas transplantation in clinic.

Objective:To observe the changes of macular microvessels in patients with retinal vein occlusion (RVO) and macular edema (ME) after intravitreal injection of aflibercept (IVA), and analyze its correlation with best corrected visual acuity (BCVA).Methods:A retrospective case study. Thirty patients (30 eyes) with monocular RVO with ME (RVO-ME) who were diagnosed in the clinical examination of Tianjin Eye Hospital from April 2019 to February 2020 were included in the study. Among them, there were 12 males (12 eyes) and 18 females(18 eyes); the average age was 54.30±13.17 years. The average course of disease was3.43±1.97 months. Both eyes were examined by BCVA and optical coherence tomography (OCTA). The on-demand injection was adopted after the first injection in IVA treatment regimen. The macular area 6 mm×6 mm in both eyes was scanned with an OCTA instrument, and the area of the foveal avascular area (FAZ), FAZ circumference (PERIM), and out-of-roundness were measured at baseline and 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment. Index (AI), blood flow density within 300 μm width of FAZ (FD-300), foveal retinal thickness (CMT), superficial retinal capillary plexus (SCP), deep retinal capillary plexus (DCP) blood flow density. The paired t test was used to compare the quantitative parameters of the affected eye and the contralateral healthy eye at baseline; the changes of the quantitative parameters at baseline and 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment were analyzed by repeated measures analysis of variance. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between BCVA, retinal perfusion, and macular blood supply parameters at 6 months after IVA treatment. Results:At baseline, compared with the contralateral healthy eye, the FAZ area ( t=-4.091), PERIM ( t=-5.098) and AI ( t=-9.093) of the RVO-ME eye were enlarged, and FD-300 ( t=7.237) and overall SCP and DCP blood flow density ( t=8.735, 9.897) decreased, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Six months after treatment, the BCVA of RVO-ME eyes was significantly increased, CMT decreased, FAZ area expanded, and AI decreased ( t=8.566, 16.739, -6.469, 9.719; P<0.001), the difference was statistically significant. There was no significant change in the blood flow density of FD-300 and overall SCP and DCP, and the difference was not statistically significant ( t=1.017, 1.197, 0.987; P>0.05). Compared with baseline, the FAZ area of RVO-ME eyes gradually expanded at 3 and 6 months after treatment, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=21.979, P<0.001). Correlation analysis results showed that BCVA at 6 months after treatment was positively correlated with the overall SCP and DCP blood flow density at baseline and 6 months after treatment ( r=-0.538, -0.484, -0.879, -0.854; P<0.05). There was a negative correlation with the area of FAZ 6 months after treatment ( r=0.544, P=0.001). The number of ME recurrences was negatively correlated with BCVA and overall SCP and DCP blood flow density 6 months after treatment ( r=0.604, -0.462, -0.528; P<0.05), it was positively correlated with FAZ area ( r=0.379, P=0.043). Conclusion:Within 6 months of IVA treatment in RVO-ME eyes, ME is significantly reduced and visual acuity is improved; SCP blood flow density decreases, and FAZ area expands.

BACKGROUND:The elderly hip fracture patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have a higher postoperative mortality than those only with hip fractures. In recent years, it has become an issue of concerns. Because the mechanism is unknown, however, there are no effective clinical interventions for these patients. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of bone marrow stromal stem cel s (BMSCs) on the level of pulmonary inflammation in aged rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) after hip fractures. METHODS:Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats, 12 months old, were exposed to smoking for 4 months and randomized into three groups, smoking, smoking+hip fracture+normal saline, smoking+hip fracture+BMSCs groups. Animal models of hip fracture were made in the latter two groups. Twenty-four hours after hip fracture, the lower lobe and peripheral blood samples were taken from al rats in the three groups, to evaluate the pathological changes of lung tissue and detect levels of inflammatory factors in the lung tissue and peripheral blood. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After closed hip fracture, aged COPD rats exhibited inflammatory cel infiltration, mucus secretion, airway stenosis or occlusion;the levels of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-αand interleukin-10 in the lung tissue and peripheral blood were increased. After intravenous injection of BMSCs, the pathological changes of the lung tissue were reduced, and the levels of pro-inflammatory factors, tumor necrosis factor-αand interleukin-6, decreased, but the level of anti-inflammatory factor interleukin-10 further increased, which were significantly different from those in the normal saline group (P<0.05). These findings indicate that BMSCs can relieve acute lung injury in aged COPD rats with hip fractures.
