Results Malignant lesions were found in 15 cases and benign lesions in 5 cases. Discussion The examination of chest with PET/CT is suit for early diagnosis of lung cancer. The number of patient of false postive and false negative is decreased by controlling some factor.

OBJECTIVETo explore the promoting effects of cograft of auto-microskin and allo-dermal matrix on burn wound healing.

METHODSForty-six patches of full skin loss wounds were made in the backs of 6 small white swines. Auto-microskin and meshed acellular allo-dermal matrix were simultaneously prepared. The 46 wounds were averagely divided into test (T) and control (C) groups. The wounds in T group were covered with auto-microskin and allo-dermal matrix (1:4) and split-thick allo-porcine skin. While the wounds in C group were grafted with autoskin and allo-dermal matrix.

RESULTSThe skin survival rate exhibited no difference between C and T groups (P > 0.05). There was similar histological exhibition in the two groups after skin grafting. The structure of collagen fibres appeared integrated, clear with regular arrangement and steady diameter at 8 - 20 post-operative weeks. Simultaneously, it was revealed by histological examination that normal vascular structure could be identified in the grafted skin and that inflammatory reaction ameliorated gradually and that epithelium combined well with dermis. It was also found that the epidermal papillar across the basement membrane fixed well to allo-dermis. The skin appeared smooth, elastic and functioned well at 5 months after skin grafting.

CONCLUSIONThe grafted skin survived well after the cograft of auto-microskin and allo-dermal matrix, which might be ideal covering material for the major deep burn wound healing.

Objective:To establish the urodynamic classification of middle-aged and elderly men with benign prostatic obstruction(BPO), and to analyze the efficacy of transurethral resection of the prostate(TURP) on various types of patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis of middle-aged and elderly male patients with non-neurogenic lower urinary tract symptoms(LUTS) who underwent urodynamic tests from January 2010 to December 2018, including 793 patients with BPO. Urodynamics examination of detrusor without contraction needs to complete cystoscopy to diagnose BPO. During urodynamic examination, the detrusor uninhibited contraction induced by spontaneous or stimulation during the bladder filling period is diagnosed as overactivity of the bladder detrusor(DO), and the LinPURR chart indicates the detrusor underactivity(DU). Based on the persistence of BPO leading to DO, DU, and decreased bladder compliance, 793 male patients with BPO with LUTS were divided into four types, including type Ⅰ(BPO: n=164, 20.7%), type Ⅱ(BPO combined with DO: n=333, 42.00%), type Ⅲ(BPO combined with DU: n=267, 33.7%), type Ⅳ(BPO combined with decreased bladder compliance: n=29, 3.7%). The preoperative comparison between groups showed that the age of type Ⅰ-Ⅳ gradually increased, and the age of type Ⅰ was significantly smaller than other types [(67.3±8.2)years, (69.7±7.7)years, (71.5±7.9)years, (72.4±7.1)years, P<0.05]. Compared with other types, the type Ⅰ’s IPSS-S[(9.1±3.6)points vs.(10.4±3.1) points, (9.2±3.3) points, (10.4±3.1)points, P<0.05], IPSS-V[(13.5±3.4) points vs. (14.2±3.5)points, (14.0±3.5)points, (14.2±2.9)points, P<0.05], IPSS scores[(22.6±5.4)points, (24.7±4.9)points, (23.1±5.3)points, (24.6±4.7)points, P<0.05] were significantly lower than other groups, the maximum bladder capacity [(332.6±83.2)ml vs.(221.4±80.8)ml, (286.7±108.2)ml, (242.3±103.4)ml, P<0.05], the functional bladder capacity was significantly higher than other types[(215.2±90.0)ml, (148.5±76.0)ml, (154.9±87.2)ml, (121.2±72.9)ml, P<0.05]. Type Ⅱ’s IPSS-S[(10.4±3.1)points vs.(9.1±3.6)points, (9.2±3.3)points, P<0.05], nocturia frequency[(3.7±1.8)times vs.(3.2±1.8)times, (3.2±1.6)times, P<0.05], IPSS score[(24.7±4.9)points vs.(22.6±5.4)points, (23.1±5.3)points, P<0.05], quality of life scores [(4.9±0.9) points, (4.6±0.9)points, (4.6±0.9)points, P<0.05] was significantly higher than type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ ( P<0.05). Type Ⅲ and Ⅳ had higher residual urine than type Ⅱ[(121.3±96.4)ml, (121.3±96.4)ml vs.(71.2±73.5)ml, P<0.05]. Type Ⅳ’s IPSS-S[(10.4±3.1)points vs. (9.1±3.6)points, (9.2±3.3)points, P<0.05], IPSS-V[(14.2±2.9) points vs.(13.5±3.4)points, (14.0±3.5)points, P<0.05], the frequency of nocturia[(3.8±1.9)times vs.(3.2±1.8)times, (3.2±1.6)times, P<0.05] was significantly higher than that of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ, and the quality of life score was higher than type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ[(4.3±0.8)points vs.(4.7±0.9)points, (4.6±0.9)points, P<0.05]. type Ⅱ and type Ⅳ’s bladder compliance[(21.4±24.2)ml/cmH 2O, (11.0±11.4)ml/cmH 2O vs.(33.9±23.7)ml/cmH 2O, (33.1±32.7)ml/cmH 2O, P<0.05], maximum bladder capacity[(221.4±80.8)ml, (242.3±103.4)ml vs.(332.6±83.2)ml, (286.7±108.2)ml, P<0.05], functional bladder capacity[(148.5±76.0)ml, (121.2±72.9)ml vs.(215.2±90.0)ml, (154.9±87.2)ml, P<0.05] were significantly less than type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ( P<0.05). From November 2016 to November 2018, 60 middle-aged and elderly male patients with confirmed BPO and TURP were selected, including type Ⅰ( n=17, 28.3%), type Ⅱ ( n=23, 38.3%), and Ⅲ type ( n=11, 18.3%), Ⅳ type( n=9, 15.1%). Type IV patients are significantly older than other types ( P<0.05), bladder compliance is significantly worse than other types( P<0.05), the maximum bladder capacity is smaller than other types( P<0.05). The follow-up started 3 months after the operation. The content of the follow-up included IPSS, IPSS-S, IPSS-V, nocturia frequency, undisturbed sleep time, nocturia quality of life score, and life quality score. Results:The IPSS scores of type Ⅰ, type Ⅱ, and type Ⅲ after TURP were significantly improved compared with preoperative(19.8±6.2 vs.3.4±1.8; 21.9±5.2 vs.4.6±2.6; 21.5±6.2 vs.5.7±4.6, P<0.05), type Ⅳ urine storage symptom score (9.1±4.1 vs.4.3±3.7), nocturia frequency(3.6±1.5vs.2.3±1.6), nocturia quality of life score (25.3±6.9 vs.31.4±13.7) Compared with preoperatively, there was no significant improvement( P>0.05). The quality of life score improvement of type Ⅳ patients was significantly lower than that of type Ⅰ, type Ⅱ, and type Ⅲ (10.9±9.1 vs.12.2±9.0, 14.4±5.7, 12.7±5.8, P<0.05). The IPSS score of type Ⅳ patients was significantly higher than that of type Ⅰ(7.0±5.8 vs.3.4±1.8), and the nocturia quality of life score was significantly lower than that of each group (31.4±13.7 vs.37.5±4.2, 38.7±3.5, 37.8±3.8, P<0.05). Conclusions:For middle-aged and elderly men with BPO, we divide them into four types based on the results of urodynamic examinations, type Ⅰ(simple BPO), type Ⅱ(BPO combined with DO), type Ⅲ(BPO combined with DU), type Ⅳ(BPO combined with bladder compliance decline). Type Ⅰ patients have the best bladder function, and TURP has the best effect; type Ⅱ has a high symptom score and poor quality of life, and can benefit after TURP; type Ⅲ bladder function is poor, and surgery should be performed as soon as possible to prevent further deterioration of bladder function; type Ⅳ bladder function is the best poor, IPSS score and quality of life score are high, TURP surgery is not effective.

Objective:To analyze the level of self-management and its influencing factors in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods:A cross-sectional study. From January to December 2021, patients with SLE in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology in the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected as the study objects by convenience sampling method. A total of 135 questionnaires were distributed in this study, 135 were recovered, and 128 were valid. The general data of the patients were collected, and the self-management level, self-efficacy, family care and meaning in life of the patients were evaluated with the chronic disease self-management behavior scale, general self-efficacy scale (GSES), family adaption partnership growth affection resolve index (APGAR) and the meaning in life questionnaire (MLQ). Multiple linear regression analysis was applied to explore the factors affecting the self-management of SLE patients.Results:The total score of chronic disease self-management behavior scale in the 128 SLE patients was (28.77±6.58) points. Pearson correlation analysis showed strong correlation between self-efficacy, sense of life meaning and self-management ( r=0.748, 0.717, both P<0.001), there was a moderate correlation between family care and self-management ( r=0.560, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that educational level ( β′=0.457), disease activity ( β′=-0.211), self-efficacy ( β′=-0.372), family care ( β′=-0.510), meaning in life ( β′=-0.386) were influencing factors of self-management level in patients with SLE (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The self-management level of SLE patients needs to be improved. Disease activity, self-efficacy, meaning in life and other factors can affect the patients′ self-management level.

When partial nephrectomy is performed by posterior abdominal approach, the surgical field is poorly exposed, resulting in increased surgical difficulty and risk of injury.In this study, 28 patients with T 1a stage kidney tumors underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Intraoperatively, exposure of the surgical field was achieved using the percutaneous puncture of the renal fascia suspension technique. There were no dissatisfactory exposures due to peritoneal damage during the surgery, no additional tubes were inserted, and no conversions to open surgery were needed. The operation time was (76.5±20.3) minutes, blood loss was (92.1±18.7) ml, renal artery clamping time was (19.5±4.3) minutes. Postoperatively, there were no complications such as bleeding, infection, or hematuria.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of mini-track,mini-nephroscopy and mini-ultrasonic probe percutaneous nephrolithotomy(3mPCNL)for the treatment of 1.5-2.5 cm kidney stones.Methods:The perioperative data and postoperative follow-up data of a total of 25 patients with about 1.5-2.5 cm kidney stones who underwent 3mPCNL under ultrasound guidance in Peking Univer-sity People's Hospital from November 2023 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.During the matching period,the 25 patients with 1.5-2.5 cm kidney stones receiving standard percutaneous neph-rolithotomy(sPCNL)were matched one-to-one according to the criterion that the absolute difference of the maximum diameter of stones between the two groups was less than 1 mm.The operative time,renal function changes,postoperative stone-free rate,hemoglobin changes,and complication rate of the two treatments were compared,and then the effectiveness and safety of 3mPCNL were preliminarily analyzed.Results:There were no significant differences in mean age,preoperative median creatinine,preoperative mean hemoglobin,preoperative mean hematocrit,median stone maximum diameter,and median stone CT density between the 3mPCNL group and the sPCNL group.The median operation time in the 3mPCNL group was 60.0(45.0-110.0)min,with no statistical significance compared with the sPCNL group,and all the patients underwent single-channel operations.The mean hemoglobin after operation in the 3mPCNL group was(115.3±15.5)mmol/L,and there was no significant difference between the preoperative group and the sPCNL group,and the mean hemoglobin decreased significantly between the sPCNL group and the sPCNL group[(9.5±2.2)mmol/L vs.(10.1±1.9)mmol/L].The mean hematocrit after operation was(28.0±5.2)％,and the difference was statistically significant compared with that before operation(t=2.414,P=0.020).The mean hematocrit drop was not statistically signi-ficant compared with the sPCNL group(2.3％vs.2.7％).The median serum creatinine in the 3mPCNL group was 74.0(51.0-118.0)μmol/L after operation,and the difference was statistically significant compared with that before operation(Z=-2.980,P=0.005).The stone-free rate in the 3mPCNL group and the sPCNL group was 96.0％and 97.3％,respectively,and the mean hospital stay was(4.3±1.4)d and(5.5±2.0)d,respectively,with the statistical significance(t=0.192,P=0.025).After the operation,one patient in sPCNL group had massive hemorrhage after the nephrostomy tube was re-moved,which was improved after selective renal artery embolization.One patient in the 3mPCNL group developed mild perirenal hematoma,which was improved after conservative treatment,and no complica-tions were observed in the other patients.Conclusion:3mPCNL in the treatment of 1.5-2.5 cm kidney stones can achieve an effective rate comparable to sPCNL,and can achieve the ideal stone-free rate in a shorter operative time with a lower rate of surgery-related complications.

To investigate the initial experience of coated metal ureteral stent(CMUS)for treatment of pelvic lipomatosis induced hydronephrosis(PLH).The clinical and follow-up data of 8 patients who were diagnosed as PLH treated with CMUS in Peking University People's Hospital from August 2018 to February 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Inclusion criteria included:Imaging evidence of excessive adipose tissue around the bladder in the pelvic cavity,bladder elevation in an"inverted pear shape",and bladder wall thickening;Cystoscopy indicated follicular hyperplasia of bladder mucosa and biopsy pathology indicated glandular cystitis;Unilateral or bilateral hydronephrosis and ureteromegaly.Exclusion criteria included:Ureteral atresia;Recurrent obstruction of the bladder outlet.Preoperative baseline data included age,gender,serum creatinine,pelvis width and ureteric stent symptoms questionnaire(USSQ)score.Intraoperative data included the location and length of ureteral stenosis observed by retrograde urography.Postoperative follow-up data included serum creatinine,pelvis width,and USSQ score.In the study,8 patients(11 sides)with PLH were all male,with an average age of(38.7±8.6)years.Uni-lateral hydronephrosis was found in 5 cases and bilateral hydronephrosis in 3 cases.Preoperative mean serum creatinine was(90.0±10.3)μmol/L,and the mean renal pelvis width was(3.0±1.5)cm.The lower ureteral stricture was found in all cases,and the mean stricture length was(1.9±0.9)cm.Before operation,3 patients had ureteral Double-J stents,with USSQ scores of 97.0,68.0 and 100.0,respectively.Five patients underwent retrograde CMUS stenting,and 3 patients retrograde and antegrade.At the last follow-up,the average serum creatinine was(82.0±11.1)μmol/L and the mean renal pel-vis width was(1.9±0.5)cm,which were significantly lower than those before operation(t=3.12,P=0.02;t=3.23,P=0.02).In the 3 patients with Double-J stent before surgery,the USSQ scores were 87.0,62.0 and 89.0,respectively,which were significantly improved after CMUS stenting.The average follow-up time was(10.0±6.3)months.During the follow-up,1 patient developed CMUS re-lated symptoms,and no stent-associated infection and stent encrustation were found.In one case,the stent migrated to the bladder 3 months after operation,and the hydronephrosis disappeared after 3 months follow-up.CMUS stenting for treatment of PLH has certain efficacy and safety,which can explore a new therapeutic method for the long-term treatment of PLH.

Stem cell research has become a frontier in the field of life sciences, and provides an ideal model for exploring developmental biology problems such as embryogenesis, histiocytosis, and gene expression regulation, as well as opens up new doors for clinical tissue defective and inheritance diseases. Among them, menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) are characterized by wide source, multi-directional differentiation potential, low immune rejection characteristics. Thus, MenSCs can achieve individual treatment and have the most advantage of the clinical application. The central nervous system, including brain and spinal cord, is susceptible to injury. And lethality and morbidity of them tops the list of all types of trauma. Compared to peripheral nervous system, recovery of central nervous system after damage remains extremely hard. However, the treatment of stem cells, especially MenSCs, is expected to solve this problem. Therefore, biological characteristics of MenSCs and their treatment in the respect of central nervous system diseases have been reviewed at home and abroad in recent years, so as to provide reference for the treatment of central nervous system diseases.
