Objective:To investigate the expression of TIP30 and its relationship with clinico-pathological characteristics in patients with extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC).Methods:The expression of TIP30 in 78 cases of ECC tissues and 78 cases of para-cancerous tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results:The positive expression rate of TIP30 was 43.59％ and 75.64％ in ECC tissues and para-cancerous tissues,respectively.Differences were statistically significant (P＜ 0.05).The expression levels of TIP30 were not correlated with age,gender,degree of differentiation and tumor size(P＞0.05),but correlated with lymph node metastasis,distant metastasis and TNM staging(P＜ 0.05).The median overall survival of 78 ECC cases was 14.8 months,and it of TIP30 positive expression cases was 20.3 months,statistically higher than 11.5 months in TIP30 negative expression cases(P＜ 0.01).Conclusion:The downregulation of TIP30 is closely correlated with the development,metastasis and prognosis of ECC.TIP30 may be used as a molecular marker to identify and predict the progression,metastasis and prognosis of ECC.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and prognostic factors in children with idi-opathic pulmonary arterial hypertension(IPAH). Methods The data of children with IPAH diagnosed in Beijing Children′s Hospital from January 2006 to December 2015 were collected. The cases were divided into survival group and death group according to the prognosis. The risk factors influencing prognosis in children with IPAH were identified by Logistic regression analysis. Results Total 26 patients were enrolled in this study,and 17 of them survived and 9 of them were dead. IPAH was found to be more common in school-age children. The average age of the patients was(6. 6 ± 3. 6)years and the male to female ratio was 1. 17∶1. All of the children had the symptoms with decreased activity tolerance and fatigue. The incidence of syncope and dyspnea and edema of lower extremity were 34. 6%,23. 1%. Accentuated pulmonic second sound(P2) was detected in 92. 3% of patients during physical examination, which was also the most common sign. About 50. 0% patients were functional class Ⅲ-Ⅳ. Echocardiography showed that all childrens′ mean pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP) was(79. 0 ± 20. 3) mmHg(1 mmHg=0. 133 kPa) and 16 of them with right ventricular dilatation. Electrocardiogram with ST-T changes and right ventricular high voltage were common. The average plasma level of brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) in all cases was(870. 4 ± 720. 9) pg/ml. The single factor analysis illustrated that syncope(OR=26. 25,95%CI 3. 04 -226. 60,P=0. 003),heart func-tional class Ⅲ-Ⅳ(OR=19. 199,95%CI 1. 88 -196. 53, P=0. 0128), PASP≥70 mmHg(OR =9. 936, 95%CI 1. 81-∞,P=0. 005),BNP≥850 pg/ml(OR=59. 991,95%CI 4. 69-767. 62,P=0. 002) indica-ted the worse outcome. Conclusion IPAH in children is rare and the prognosis is poor. Syncope, cardiac function grade,PASP and the levels of BNP are the main important factors affecting the prognosis of children with IPAH. BNP has important clinical significance for the evaluation of IPAH and the prognosis of the disease.

Objective To observe the clinical characteristics and prognosis in children with high take -off coronary artery.Methods The clinical characteristics,laboratory examinations and prognosis were retrospectively ana-lyzed in 49 children with high take -off coronary artery who had been admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from April 2009 to December 201 2.Results Among 49 medical records of children with high take -off coronary artery,34 cases were male and 1 5 cases were female,with a mean age of (9.28 ±4.42)years old,and the youngest patient was 1 3 months old,and the oldest patient was 1 7 years and 2 months old.The 64 -section multidetector CT angiography of all patients showed one or both coronary arteries originated from 1 .0 cm higher than the junction area of sinus and aorta,including 38 high take -off of the left coronary artery,7 high take -off of the right coronary artery and 4 high take -off of both coronary arteries.The chief complaints of the patients included chest pain (22 cases,44.90%),chest tightness(1 3 cases,26.53%),declining of exercise tolerance(7 cases,1 4.29%),fatigue (5 cases,1 0.20%),palpitation(3 cases,6.21 %),syncope(1 case,2.04%).Electrocardiogram(ECG)of those pa-tients showed ST -T changes,atrioventricular block,sinus tachycardia,pathological Q -wave,proiosystole and bundle branch block.Ultrasonic cardiogram(UCG)indicated 1 4 patients with the enlarged left ventricle,including 2 patients with ejection fraction lower than 60%.After 1 0 days hospitalization,the anesis of chest pain and chest tightness were significantly different statistically(P <0.05),but there was no significant difference in ECG and UCG.Thirty -nine out of 49 children were followed for 1 year.After 3 months,6 patients with ST -T problem showed normal ST -T segment. After 6 months,1 0 patients with ST -T problem showed normal ST -T segment.After 1 year,1 7 patients with ST -T problem showed normal ST -T segment.Conclusions High take -off coronary artery is a rare malformation of the coronary artery,which can cause myocardial ischemic,leading to multiple clinical manifestations and may result in ECG changes and the left ventricle enlargement.High take -off coronary artery can be confused with myocarditis and myocar-dial lesion clinically.Patients receiving systemic treatment may have their symptoms released,but ECG and UCG may not relieve in a short term.Patients with high take -off coronary artery need long -term observation.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the therapeutic effect of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) gene modified tissue engineering bone (GMB) combined with vascularized periosteum in the reconstruction of segmental bone defect.

METHODSAdenovirus carrying BMP-2 gene (Ad-BMP-2) was transfected into the isolated and cultured rabbit bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs). The transfected MSCs were seeded on bovine cancellous bone scaffolds (BCB) to construct gene modified tissue engineering bone (GMB). The bilateral rabbits radial defects (2.5 cm long) were created as animal model. The rabbits were divided into five groups to reconstruct the defects with CMB combined with vascularized periosteum (group A); or GMB combined with vascular bundle implantation (group B); or GMB combined with free periosteum (group C); or GMB only (group D); or BCB scaffolds only (group E). Angiogenesis and osteogenesis were observed by X-ray, histological examination, biomechanical analysis and capillary ink infusion.

RESULTSIn group A, the grafted GMB was revascularized rapidly. The defect was completely reconstructed at 8 weeks. The mechanism included both intramemerbrane and endochondral ossification. In group B, the vascular bundle generated new blood vessels into the grafted GMB, but the osteogenesis process was slow in the central zone, which healed completely at 12 weeks. In group C, the free graft of periosteum took at 4 weeks with angiogenesis. The thin extremal callus was formed at 8 weeks and the repairing process almost finished at 12 weeks. Better osteogenesis was found in group D than in group E, due to the present of BMP2 gene-transfected MSCs. The defects in group D were partial repaired at 12 weeks with remaining central malunion zone. The defects in group E should nonunion at 12 weeks with only fibre tissue.

CONCLUSIONSBMP-2 gene modified tissue engineering bone combined with vascularized periosteum which provides periosteum osteoblasts as well as blood supply, has favorable ability of osteogenesis, osteoinduction and osteoconduction. It is an ideal method for the treatment of segmental bone defect.
