Bone marrow mesenchymal cells (BMSCs) are regarded as donor cells in cell transplantation therapies for spinal cord injury (SCI) for they have the ability of favourable proliferation and multi-directional differentiation, and are easily isolated and culturd and have less immunological reaction. It has been confirmed that subarachnoid space injection is the most ideal delivery technique of BMSCs. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplantation is safe and its reconditioning role is certain for SCI in early clinical application. The mechanism of BMSCs promoting functional recovery after SCI is probably concerned with vicarious function, nerve trophism, immunosuppression and promoting axonal regeneration by BMSCs.

Objective: To review the experience of one-stage surgical management of thoracic aortic aneurysm associated with coronary artery disease. Methods: From June 1999 to July 2002, fifteen patients (all the male, average age 57.21 year-old, ranged 40-66 year-old) underwent thoracic aortic aneurysm repair and concomitant coronary revascularization. The diagnosis are aortic root aneurysm in 5 cases,ascending aortic aneurysm in 2,arch aortic aneurysm in 3,and aortic dissecting in 5. 14 patients received operation through midsternotomy,including ascending aorta replacement in 2, Bentall technique in 4, David technique in 1 and total arch replacements in 3 patients. Left thoracotomy and off-pump CABG was done in 1 case. Results: 1 patient died in 30 days after operation. Followed up for a mean duration of 17 months,there were no late death and no reoperation and no related events occurred. Conclusion: Thoracic aortic replacement and CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting) could be done at one-stage. Concomitant coronary revascularization may aggressively obviate CAD events.

Objective To review the clinical,histological and diagnostic aspects of 12 documented cases of nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver(NRHL),to make this condition be understood and dealt with better. Method Twelve NRHL cases were diagnosed based on liver biopsy from 300 portal hypertension patients who had been underwent splenectomy.Imaging studies were performed as part of the diagnostic evaluation.Clinical manifestation and biochemical tests were recorded at the time of diagnosis.Management and prognosis were also reviewed.Results Most patients were complicated with autoimmune disease,6 cases were diagnosed systemic lupus erythematosus and 1 was Crohn's disease and 1 suspected ulcerative colitis.Six cases were treated by prednisone and 3 cases by immunosuppressant.Eleven cases had suffered from portal hypertension.All cases had no history of viral hepatitis.Biochemical tests showed mild increase of liver enzyme and relative normal synthetic liver function.The histological finding was nodular in the hepatic parenehyma,with mild periportal fibrosis,intraportal lymphocytic infiltration,narrow and obstruction of branch of portal vein,and lack of hepatocyte necrosis.All cases were diagnosed liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension before operation.Management was directed to portal hypertension and varices bleeding with satisfactory results.Most of them keep a stable condition during the follow-up. Conclusion The NRHL was uncommon and its cause and pathogenesis was unclear,may be related with immune and hepatic blood circulation disorder.It should be considered in patients with unexplained portal hypertension and distinguished it from liver cirrhosis.Liver biopsy confirms the diagnosis.Management directed to portal hypertension may improve clinical condition.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of bicyclol combined with polyene phosphatidyl choline in elderly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods One hundred and twenty elderly patients with NAFLD were divided into 3 groups by block randomization method,40 cases in each group.Therapeutic group was treated by bicyclol combined with polyene phosphatidyl choline; bicyclol group was only treated by bicyclol; and polyene phosphatidyl choline group was only treated by polyene phosphatidyl choline.The blood biochemical indexes,liver ultrasound score and clinical curative effect of 3 groups were compared after treated for 24 weeks.Results The total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and gamma glutamine transferase (GGT) in 3 groups after treatment were lower than those before treatment,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05) ; TC,TG and ALT levels in therapeutic group after treatment were significantly lower than those in bicyclol group and polyene phosphatidyl choline group [(1.36 ± 0.84) mmol/L vs.(2.77 ± 1.27),(2.84 ±1.35) mmol/L; (1.32 ±0.71) mmol/L vs.(1.89 ±0.87),(1.92 ±0.90) mmol/L; (38.26 ± 12.75) U/L vs.(57.83 ± 16.67),(62.07 ± 18.16) U/L],and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The liver ultrasound score in 3 groups after treatment was significantly decreased compared with that before treatment,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Liver ultrasound scores in therapeutic group after treatment were significantly lower than those in bicyclol group and polyene phosphatidyl choline group [(2.08 ± 0.93) scores vs.(3.17 ± 1.14),(3.34 ± 1.07) scores],and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The total effective rate in therapeutic group was significantly higher than that in bicyclol group and polyene phosphatidyl choline group [85.0％ (34/40) vs.67.5％ (27/40),65.0％ (26/40)],and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Conclusions Bicyclol combined with polyene phosphatidyl choline has better clinical effect in elderly patients with NAFLD.It is better than single bicyclol and polyene phosphatidyl choline and worth clinical promotion.

To clone the differential genes in antibiotic resistence Neisseria gonorrhoeae,the library that contains the fragments of differential genes between antibiotic resistance strain and standard reference strain of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was constructed which used suppression subtractive hybridization technique. Then the antibiotic resistance relational genes fragments were cloned and analyzed. Antibiotic resistance Neisseria gonorrhoeae subtractive library that has high subtractive efficiency was set up successfully. The amplified library contained 2500 positive clones. Sequence analysis was performed to find the fragments of antibiotic resistance relational genes. Five sequences were unknown previously. The fragments of antibiotic resistance genes may provide an important clue for studying the mechanism of occurrence and development of antibiotic resistance Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
