OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the features and application of tissue engineered biomaterials in repairing femur defects, and to search an optimal femur substitution.METHODS: Papers published between January 1993 and October 2009 were searched using computer with key words of "tissue engineering, femur defect, mesenchymal stem cells, cytokines and materials" both in English and Chinese. Documents addressing biomaterials and tissue engineered bone in repairing femur defects were included. Repetitive research or Meta analysis was excluded. After that, 21 literatures were selected to discuss the features and application of tissue engineered biomaterials in repairing femur defects.RESULTS: Stem cells technology is obtaining seed cells from myeloid tissues, amplifying in vitro, combining with scaffold material, and in vitro constructing tissue engineered bones. The cultured cells could maintain osteoblast biological characteristics and fully fused with bone tissues at recipient sites, simultaneously, avoid immunological rejection. The combination of materials or modify the material surface could promote cells adhere to materials and increase the cellular biological activity. When transfecting seed cells to bone defect areas using certain carriers, the transplanted calls could form new bones and secret bone growth factor, induce determined osteogenic precursor cells differentiated into inducible ostegenic precursor cells, thereby, fasten the bone healing. The composite materials prepared by three-dimensional virtual surgical simulation and computer numerical control exhibited advantages of composite materials and histological anatomy conjunction, which had perfect appearance.CONCLUSION: Currently, there is no material can fully meet the requirement of bone tissue engineering. Thus, promoting adhesion between cells and materials, increasing cellular biological activity, and maintaining biological functions by combing materials or modifying material surface are the research focuses.

Objective To investigate the significance of pulse indicating the continuous cardiac output (PICCO) technique in patients with post-trauma capillary leak syndrome (PTCLS). Methods Twenty traumatic patients with PTCLS received PICCO monitor from 2011 to 2014 were enrolled in this study. analyzed, The patients, with twelve males and eight females, aged from twenty three to fifty. And twenty patients in the control group, with ten males and ten females, aged from twenty one to fifty two. Twenty six patients were injuried by traffic, ten patients were injuried by crash and four patients were injuried by sword. No significant differences were found in age、gender、weight、scores of ISS、Murray and APACHEⅡof all patients. All patients were survived. The balance of fluids, Lactate, Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and the mean artery pressure (MAP) were compared at 0, 24, 48 and 72 h after entering into the ICU. The duration of ICU stay and ventilation were also compared. Results (1)No significant differences in MAP、Lac and ScvO2 were observed in two groups. (2)No significant differences in the balance of fluids when patients entered into ICU, but significant differences were found at 24, 48 and 72 h post-entering into ICU (P < 0.05). (3)Significant differences in the duration of ICU stay and ventilation between the two groups were observed (P < 0.05). Conclusion PICCO technique can provid a quantitative target for PTCLS patients, with decreasing fluid infusion, and reducing the duration of ICU stay and ventilation.

BACKGROUND: Reports of culture condition of olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) vary. And some methods have bad reproducibility, not appropriate for actual application.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of differential attachment, chemicals in combination with trypsin digestion to purify rat OECs in vitro and to compare the effect with differential attachment or chemicals alone.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: In vitro controlled observation of cytology was performed at the Laboratory of Department of Human Anatomy & Histology and Embryology, Fujian Medical University from June 2007 to June 2008.MATERIALS: A total of 8 SD rats, 2 days old, were provided by the Laboratory Animal Center of Fujian Medical University.METHODS: The OECs were dissociated from the postnatal rat olfactory bulbs under sterile condition, and seeded in poly-L-lysine-coated culture flask at a density of 4.0×10~8 /L for primary culture. The cells were divided into 4 groups: control group (not purified); chemicals group (5 μmol/L arabinose); differential attachement group (Nash differential attachement); combination group (Nash differential attachement to eliminate most of the fibroblasts, followed by arabinose; when the cells were confluent at 6 days, the cells were digested with 1.25 g/L trypsin for 1 minute until the processes were shrank, cells became round, with some cells floating).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphological changes of the cultured OECs and NGFRp75 immunocytochemistry were observed.RESULTS: The OECs displayed a very characteristic morphological appearance. Most of OECs were bipolar or tripolar with long and slim processes. In the unpurified control group the rapidly proliferating fibroblasts were in the majority (60%) after 7 days in culture, and confluent at day 14. The OECs occupied the most in the other groups, and their appearance remained unchanged.The surviving bipolar or tripolar OECs were positive for NGFRp75. The purifity by chemicals and differential attacehment methods was low (75%), while the combination group was high (85%).CONCLUSION: The method of purifing OECs through a combination of differential attacehment, chemicals and trypsinization is effective.

Objective To study the value of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for treating gallbladder benign diseases in aged patients. Methods Laparoscopy cholecystectomy (3-port or 4-port) was performed in 2335 senile patients with gallbladder benign diseases from December 1992 to May 2005. Results Five patients were found as having the Mirizzi syndrome and were given a subtotal cholecystectomy. In 18 patients with a frozen Callot’s triangle, the anterior wall of the gallbladder was resected and the mucous membrane on the posterior wall was electrocauterized. LC was completed smoothly in the remaining 2312 patients. No conversions to open surgery were needed. The operation time was 8~55 min (mean, 19 min), and the intraoperative blood loss was 1~ 50 ml (mean, 8 ml). An abdominal drainage tube was placed in 213 patients, including double-cannula lavage in 56 patients. The length of hospital stay was 4~16 d (mean, 6 d). Follow-up examinations for 10 days ~13 years in 1859 patients showed no biliary stenosis, gallbladder pouch, or residual stones. Conclusions Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe and feasible in aged patients, being the first choice of operative method. Proper perioperative management, careful prevention co-morbidities, and control of operation time as short as possible are important for senile patients.
