AIM: To investigate the differentiation potential of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMMSCs) into hematopoietic cells in vivo. METHODS: hBMMSCs prepared from the bone marrow-aspirate sample obtained from healthy human donors were culture-expanded in vitro with 5-8 passages. hBMMSCs(P5-8, 4.8?10 5 cells/mouse) were injected into the severe combined immuodeficiency (SCID) mice treated by cyclophosphamide(CPA) and various tissues were analyzed at 35 days post-transplant for the presence of differentiated human cells. RESULTS: hBMMSCs(P5-8) viability, which was determined by typan blue staining at the end of the harvest and before infusion, was greater than 95% in every infusate at both time points. Cells characterized by flow cytometry using human MSC-specific monoclonal antibodies were uniformly positive for CD29, CD44, CD90, CD105, CD106, CD166 and negative for CD11a, CD14, CD34, CD38, CD45, CD80, CD86 which are common on cells of the hematopoietic lineages. Analysis of PB demonstrated that 5 of 6 hBMMSCs transplanted SCID mice had low level of circulating human CD45 +/ H-2D d- cells(range from 0.17% to 0.36%)and CD34 +/ H-2D d- cells(range from 0.10% to 0.50%). Analysis of BM for the presence of hematopoietic chimerism demonstrated human CD45 +/ H-2D d- cells and CD34 +/ H-2D d- cells in the marrow of 4 out of 6 hBMMSCs transplanted SCID mice (0.10%-0.19% and 0.03%-0.52%, respectively). Human hematopoietic cells with these same phenotype were also detected in the spleen 4 of the hBMMSCs transplanted SCID mice (range from 0.19% to 1.65% ,from 0.20% to 0.26%, respectively). No human hematopoietic cell was seen either in the PB, BM or spleen of all control animals. CONCLUSION: hBMMSCs have the ability to differentiate into blood cells of multiple lineages, including CD34 + hematopoietic stem cells/progenitor cells (HSC/HPC).

AIM:To study the differentiation of rat marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) into myoid cells in vitro . METHODS:The MSCs of SD rat were cultured?passaged?induced and differentiated in vitro used by routine culture technique, and evaluated by FACScan flow cytometer,detected by immunohistochemistry and analyzed by Hitachi H-600 transmission electron microscope(TEM). RESULTS:FACScan shows that cells expressed the antigens of CD29 and CD44, not those of CD11b and CD45; cells show positive response of staining with desmin and myoglobin after processing by two compounds of 5-azacytidine and amphotericin B. There were stripform zone of myofilament without any organells beside the edge of membrane in myoid cell of induction and differentiation checked by TEM. CONCLUSION: The passaged cells were MSCs and the MSCs may have specific gene structures that can differentiate into myoid cells. The demethylation or hypomethylation may conduct by compounds of 5-azacytidine and amphotericin B, which could be involved in activating phenotype-specific genes to differentiate MSCs into myoid cells. There are good outlook on clinical treatment of illness of myatrophy using by MSCs.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the production of metallo-beta-lactamase in clinical isolates of multi-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and evaluate the validity of the detection methods.METHODS The multi-resistant strains were selected by K-B method according to the standard Aloush et al recommended.The metallo-beta-lactamase phenotypes were detected by multi-disk-multi-inhibitors synergy test(MDMIST),and the genotypes of IMP and VIM gene were analyzed by PCR amplification.RESULTS A total of 192 strains of multi-resistant P.aeruginosa were selected from 1081 clinical strains.The antimicrobial agents test in these multi-resistance strains demonstrated that ciprofloxacin and piperacillin had the highest resistant rate(92.5%),and the next were aztreonam and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole(91.5%),the polymyxin showed sensitive in all of these strains.Sixty-seven strains of metallo-beta-lactamase phenotypes were positive and the amplification PCRs showed that 65 strains were IMP or VIM in these 192 multi-resistant strains.CONCLUSIONS The resistance mechanisms in multi-resistant P.aerugionsa present multiple and changeable.The clinical laboratory should enhance the detection of metallo-beta-lactamase in these multi-resistant strains.

AIM: To explore the potential of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) differentiating into hematopoietic cells with murine fetal liver stromal cell-conditioned medium (FLSC-CM) in vitro. METHODS: 12.5-14.5 days post coitus (dpc ) of KM mice were used for the preparation of fetal liver stromal cell-conditioned medium (FLSC-CM) and embryonic fibroblast feeder layer (FD). Culture-expanded hMSCs were directly contacted with FLSC-CM, FD, and the combination of human interleukin-6 (IL-6) or stem cell factor (SCF), respectively. Seven days later, the non-adherent cells were collected and characterized by morphology, immunophenotypes, and colony forming unit-granulocyte/macrophage culture assay. RESULTS: The number of nonadherent cells derived from hMSCs cultured with FLSC-CM was increased remarkably than those with either FD or cytokines. The non-adhered cells with the morphology of monocyte-or small lymphocyte-like cells were positive for human CD34, CD45 and had the capacity to form the hematopoietic progenitor colonies in methylcellulose cultures containing recombined human granulocyte/macrophage-colony stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF). CONCLUSION: hMSCs were successfully induced toward their differentiation into CD34+CD45+ hematopoietic progenitors after being cultivated with FLSC-CM. This study suggests that hMSCs have the hematopoietic differentiation potential in vitro. [

Objective:To explore the effect of staged rehabilitation nursing in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.Methods:From January 2021 to December 2022, convenience sampling was used to select 73 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair in the Department of Hand Surgery at Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University as participants. According to the random number table method, patients were divided into a control group ( n=36) and an observation group ( n=37). Control group received routine rehabilitation nursing, while observation group received staged rehabilitation nursing. The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Shoulder Rating Scale score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Rating Scale score, Constant-Murley Shoulder Scale score, and complications during rehabilitation were compared between two groups of patients before and six months after intervention. Results:Six months after surgery, both groups showed an increase in UCLA scores and ASES scores compared to before the intervention ( P<0.05), and the scores of observation group were higher than those of control group, with statistical differences ( P<0.05). Six months after surgery, the Constant-Murley Shoulder Scale scores for daily life and shoulder range of motion in observation group were higher than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). During the rehabilitation period, the incidence of complications in observation group was lower than that in control group with a statistical difference ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Staged rehabilitation nursing in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair shows significant effects and can effectively promote patient recovery.

BACKGROUND:As a routine method after lumbar spine surgery,a drainage tube is convenient for postoperative bleeding drainage and management,and there is still no consensus on the choice of postoperative removal time for short-segment lumbar spine surgery with less risk. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of different drainage times on early clinical efficacy after short-segment lumbar fusion. METHODS:A prospective randomized controlled study was performed on 220 patients in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University who underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion for lumbar degenerative diseases from March 2017 to April 2021.According to the different drainage times,the patients were randomly divided into removal on the second day after operation(group A),removal on the third day after operation(group B),and removal after the observation method 24-hour drainage volume<30 mL(group C).The perioperative indicators and follow-up results of the three groups of patients were observed and compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Because 7 patients were lost to follow-up,2 patients were excluded,and 211 patients were finally included(72 patients in group A,71 patients in group B,and 68 patients in group C).(2)The average drainage time of group C was 2.91 days.The postoperative drainage volume in group A was significantly less than that in groups B and C,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).On day 3 after operation,the hematocrit value of group C was lower than that of group A and group B,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Postoperative activity time and hospital stay in group A were shorter than those in groups B and C,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).(3)Four patients in group A,two patients in group B and three patients in group C received an allogeneic blood transfusion.There was no significant difference among the groups(P>0.05).(4)In terms of postoperative complications,there were no statistical differences in postoperative wound leakage and surgical site infection in all three groups(P>0.05).(5)All patients were followed up for more than 12 months.Visual analog scale score and Oswestry dysfunction index of the three groups of patients before discharge and at the last follow-up were significantly improved compared with those before surgery(P<0.05).There was no statistical significance among the groups(P>0.05).(6)It is indicated that the removal of the drainage tube on the second day after a posterior lumbar fusion can effectively reduce the time to get out of bed and hospital stay,without increasing the postoperative blood loss and the risk of complications.

Objective:Surgical site infection (SSI) is the most common infectious complication after emergency abdominal surgery (EAS). To a large extent, most SSI can be prevented, but there are few relevant studies in China. This study mainly investigated the current situation of SSI occurrence after EAS in China, and further explored risk factors for SSI occurrence.Methods:Multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted. Clinical data of patients undergoing EAS in 33 hospitals across China between May 1, 2019 and June 7, 2019 were prospectively collected, including perioperative data and microbial culture results from infected incisions. The primary outcome was the incidence of SSI after EAS, while the secondary outcomes were postoperative hospital stay, ICU occupancy rate, length of ICU stay, hospitalization cost, and mortality within postoperative 30 days. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors of SSI after EAS.Results:A total of 660 EAS patients aged (47.9±18.3) years were enrolled in this study, including 56.5% of males (373/660). Forty-nine (7.4%) patients developed postoperative SSI. The main pathogen of SSI was Escherichia coli [culture positive rate was 32.7% (16/49)]. As compared to patients without SSI, those with SSI were more likely to be older (median 56 years vs. 46 years, U=19 973.5, P<0.001), male [71.4% (35/49) vs. 56.1% (343/611), χ 2=4.334, P=0.037] and diabetes [14.3% (7/49) vs. 5.1% (31/611), χ 2=5.498, P=0.015]; with-lower preoperative hemoglobin (median: 122.0 g/L vs. 143.5 g/L, U=11 471.5, P=0.006) and albumin (median: 35.5 g/L vs. 40.8 g/L, U=9452.0, P<0.001), with higher blood glucose (median: 6.9 mmol/L vs. 6.0 mmol/L, U=17 754.5, P<0.001); with intestinal obstruction [32.7% (16/49) vs. 9.2% (56/611), χ 2=25.749, P<0.001], with ASA score 3-4 [42.9% (21/49) vs. 13.9% (85/611), χ 2=25.563, P<0.001] and with high surgical risk [49.0% (24/49) vs. 7.0% (43/611), χ 2=105.301, P<0.001]. The main operative procedure resulting in SSI was laparotomy [81.6%(40/49) vs. 35.7%(218/611), χ 2=40.232, P<0.001]. Patients with SSI experienced significantly longer operation time (median: 150 minutes vs. 75 minutes, U=25 183.5, P<0.001). In terms of clinical outcome, higher ICU occupancy rate [51.0% (25/49) vs. 19.5% (119/611), χ 2=26.461, P<0.001], more hospitalization costs (median: 44 000 yuan vs. 15 000 yuan, U=24 660.0, P<0.001), longer postoperative hospital stay (median: 10 days vs. 5 days, U=23 100.0, P<0.001) and longer ICU occupancy time (median: 0 days vs. 0 days, U=19 541.5, P<0.001) were found in the SSI group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the elderly (OR=3.253, 95% CI: 1.178-8.985, P=0.023), colorectal surgery (OR=9.156, 95% CI: 3.655-22.937, P<0.001) and longer operation time (OR=15.912, 95% CI:6.858-36.916, P<0.001) were independent risk factors of SSI, while the laparoscopic surgery (OR=0.288, 95% CI: 0.119-0.694, P=0.006) was an independent protective factor for SSI. Conclusions:For patients undergoing EAS, attention should be paid to middle-aged and elderly patients and those of colorectal surgery. Laparoscopic surgery should be adopted when feasible and the operation time should be minimized, so as to reduce the incidence of SSI and to reduce the burden on patients and medical institutions.
