Objective To study the value of 5% glucose irrigation for dissection surface hemostasis in laparoscopic conservative treatment of tubal pregnancy. Methods Clinical parameters including numbers of failure in oviduct sparing, the postoperative intraperitoneal bleeding, persistent pregnancy, recurrent tubal pregnancy on the same side and normal uterine pregnancy were compared between the Experimental Group (glucose irrigation for dissection surface hemostasis; 43 cases) and the Control Group (unipolar electrocogulation hemostasis; 43 cases). Results We failed to reserve the oviduct in 10 patients in the Control Group (10/43, 23%) and in no patients in the Experimental Group (0/43) ( ? 2 =11 316, P =0 001). Recurrent tubal pregnancy on the same side was observed in 2 cases in the Control Group (2/34, 6%) and in no cases in the Experimental Group (0/34), without significant differences ( P =0 175). No postoperative intraperitoneal bleeding or persistent pregnancy was seen in both of the groups. Normal uterine pregnancy rates were 44 1% (15/34) in the Experimental Group and 40.0% (10/25) in the Control Group, without significant differences between the two groups ( ? 2 =0 100, P =0 752). Conclusions Use of 5% glucose irrigation is superior to electrocogulation for dissection surface hemostasis in the treatment of tubal pregnancy.

BACKGROUND:After peripheral nerve injury, to inhibit scar formation by drugs is the key to functional recovery. To reduce the amount of scar formation we designed a prednisolone-loaded film which can sustain drug release and good achievement in in vitro drug release test.
OBJECTIVE:To prepare the prednisolone implantable film and investigate its in vivo biocompatibility and safety.
METHODS:Prednisolone-loaded nanoparticles were first prepared with reverse micellar emulsion-solvent evaporation method, and the composite film and drug-loaded film were further prepared. Then, we investigated the in vivo biocompatibility of drug-loaded film through celltoxicity test, hemolysis test, acute systemic toxicity test, chronic systemic toxicity test.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After cultured for 7 days, the relative growth rate of L929 mouse fibroblasts was 92.6%, showing no cytotoxicity. The hemolysis rate of the film was 0.59%, indicating that the material had no hemolysis action. No abnormal biological behaviors were seen in mice after intraperitoneal injection of film extracts, and there were no changes in liver and renal functions in rats. As il ustrated above, we can safely come to a conclusion that prednisolone-loaded film possesses good biocompatibility and can be safely used in the experiment of reducing the scar at sites of peripheral nerve repair.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of different shoulder width on the compressive strength of full-contour zirconia crowns.Methods:A computer aided design and computer aided manufacturing(CAD/CAM) system was used to prepare 24 full-contour zirconia crowns of the mandible first molar.1 mm occlusal thickness crowns with 4 shoulder width of knife-edge(group A),0.3 mm(group B),0.5 mm(group C) and 1.0 mm(group D) (n =6).The Co-Cr alloy PFM crowns made by the die of group C were used as the controls (n =6).All the full-contour zirconia crowns were bonded to the corresponding die using 3 M glass ionomer cement (GIC) and the compressive strength were measured by an universal testing machine.Based on the statistical analysis,crowns with the shoulder width of 0.5 mm were treated by the thermocycling test under cycling of 10000 times(group C1),20 000 times(group C2) and 30000 times (group C3) respectively(n =6).One-way ANOVA method was used for the statistical analysis.Results:The mean compressive strength(N) of group A,B,C,D and E was 3855.00 ± 305.47,2731.70 ± 261.80,3698.30 ± 276.87,3841.70 ± 544.88 and 2992.17 ± 168.41 respectively.The strength of group B and E were lower than that of group A,C and D(P ＜ 0.05),B vs E P ＞0.05.The compressive strength(N) of group C1,C2 and C3 was 3220.00 ± 504.38 (group C1),3148.33 ± 425.60(C2) and 2992.17 ±168.41 (C3) respectively (P＞0.05).Conclusion:For the full-contour zirconia crowns,both the knife-edge shoulder and the shoulder wider than 0.3 mm can meet the thermoclinical needs.The cycling times used in this study have no influences on the compressive strength.

BACKGROUND:Neurotrophin-3 is found in the repair of spinal cord injury in the role of the strongest neurotrophic factor.It can effectively promote axonal regeneration through the glial scar tissue in repairing spinal cord injury.OBJECTIVE:To construct recombinant lentiviral vectors for gene delivery of homo sapiens neurotrophin-3(hNT3),and to investigate the expression of hNT3 gene in Schwann cells after transfection.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Observational experiment was performed from June 2007 to March 2008 at the Central Laboratory of Changhai Hospital.MATERIALS:Bilateral sciatic nerves were harvested from 3-day-old Sprague Dawley rats for culture and identification of Schwann cells.Three-plasmid lentivirus systems:pGC-E1-EGFP,pHelper 1.0 and pHelper 2.0 were gained from Shanghai Chemical Technology Co.,Ltd.METHODS:pGC-E1-hNT3-EGFP plasmid was constructed by double restriction enzyme digestion and ligation,and then the plasmid was transformed into E.coli DH5?.Purified pGC-E1-hNT3-EGFP plasmids from the positive clones was confirmed by PCR and sequencing.293T cells were cotransfected with lentiviral vector pGC-E1-hNT3-EGFP,pHelper 1.0 and pHelper 2.0 by Lipofectamine 2000 to produce lentivirus.2 mL recombinant virus complete culture solution was added according to multiplicity of infection=1,4,8,10,12.The titer of virus was tested according to the expression level of enhanced green fluorescent protein.The control groups were Schwann cells and Schwann cells transfected by no-loaded lentivirus.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The lentiviruses were transduced to Schwann cells,and the transfection efficiency was examined by flow cytometry,the overexpression of hNT3 was determined by Real-time PCR and Western blotting.RESULTS:The exogenous gene sequence of the recombinant hNT3 was completely in accordance with that of its open reading frame in GeneBank.The titer of concentrated virus was 5?107 TU/L.After recombinant LV-hNT3 infection,Schwann cells gave off strikingly bright green fluorescence,and the transfection efficiency amounted to 85%(multiplicity of infection=10).Real-time RCR test showed that the hNT3 mRNA were highly expressed in hNT3-Schwann cells,while did not express in the control group.Western blotting showed the hNT3 expression in Schwann cells.CONCLUSION:Construction of hNT3 gene lentiviral vector can transfect Schwann cells leading to an efficient overexpression of hNT3.

Osteoclasts are derived from pluripotent stem cells in bone marrow and spleen.They play a critical role in inflammation-induced bone loss and joint destruction because in the absence of them,bone de- struction does not occur even when inflammation exists.Synovioblasts in an inflamed joint can secrete numerous inflammatory factors,including tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-?)and interleukin-1(IL-1)which not only induce inflammatory reactions but also elevate osteoclast formation and function indirectly or directly through promoting RANKL expression.In this wdy the inflammatory reactions are associated with bone loss and destruction. In this article,we focus on the recent progress in study of TNF-?,IL-1 and osteoclast-target therapies in management of osteoclast-mediated inflammatory bone loss.TNF-?promotes differentiation of osteoclast precursor cells in the peripheral blood and spleen,which causes a marked increase in mature osteoclasts in a diseased joint.However, IL-I supports osteoblast survival and regulates the recombination of osteoclast cytoskeleton,which further stimulates bone resorption.Since osteoclast-target therapies may inhibit osteoclast formation and function,they are becoming more and more important for inflammation-induced bone loss and joint destruction.
