[Summary] The article reported 107 cases of bile duct residual stones treated by plasma shock wave lithotripsy with inverse flush under fiber choledochoscope via T-tube fistula.Of the 107 patients, stones were completely removed in 98 patients, and residual stones remained in 9.Intraoperative biliary hemorrhage occurred in 5 cases, which were stopped after spraying the norepinephrine . There were 4 cases of arhythmia , 13 cases of subcostal or upper abdominal pain , and 11 cases of abdominal distention and diarrhea , all of which were cured by symptomatic treatment .Postoperative biliary infection occurred in 7 cases, which were cured by anti-infection and biliary drainage.Except for 1 patient of lost of follow-up, 106 patients were followed for 6 months.Ultrasound and CT examinations showed free of calculus in 101 cases, and intrahepatic bile duct residual stones in 5 cases.We deem that plasma shock wave lithotripsy combined with reverse flushing under fiber choledochoscope is a minimally invasive , safe, and effective treatment for difficult biliary residual stones .

Objective To study the clinical feasibility of the percutaneous sclerosis treatment for limb and maxillofacial region low flux vascular malformations. Methods 17 cases with limb and maxillofacial region low flux vascular malformation were collected from 1998 to 2002 accepting interventional treatment in our hospital with application of direct percutaneous sclerosis or percutaneous sclerosis through arteriography or arterial embolism three methods, using tardener's alcohol method of Hardener with alcohol or iodinated oil accompanied by pingyangmycin. Results Altogether 17 cases included with once cured in 11 cases, multple times of treatment in 5 and the last case needed necrotic tissue resection with skin graft due to localized muscular necrosis caused by inproper embolization. Conclusions The interventional treatment for limb and maxillofacial region low flux vascular malformation is an effective and safety method.

This paper reviews the clinical application characteristics of artificial skin for external used in the treatment of burn wound at recent years. Skin is the important organ to protect the environmental stability in vivo, resist the outside invasion, evacuate moisture and regulate body temperature, as well as one component of immunity system. Subsequent to the burn injury, various damages of the organism may be related to the loss of skin barrier. Epidermal substitutes comprise the epidermal cells growing on the degradable matrix or polymer film; While dermal substitutes are shaped as a matrix with active bacterium or without cells, and they can induce the migration and proliferation of fibroblasts, together with the secretion of extracellular matrix; Full skin substitutes include both epidermal ones and dermal ones. With the progress on the biomedicines and the materials, the research regarding artificial skin also develops. However, it is still a key problem to construct an ideal artificial skin, which contains vessels and innervation, skin accessory structure and physiological function of normal skin.

Objective To investigate the influence of transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6) on the proliferation of hUVEC induced by the supematant from human prostate cancer cells (DU145). Methods Experiment group was treated with the mixture of DU145 cells supernatant and DMEM medium in different ratio, control group was treated with DMEM medium. The change of cell proliferation was detected by MTT method, and TRPC6 gene and protein was detected by PCR and Western-blot methods respectively. Results After incubated for 48h with the supematant from cultured DU145 cells,the population of hUVECs increased obviously, and the expression of TRPC6 genes and protein had clearly up-regulation. Conclusion The supernatant from cultured DU145 cells could effectively enhance the proliferation of hUVECs. The mechanisms might be that the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells was mediated by TRPC6.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the immunological characteristics of human tonsil mesenchymal stem cells (TMSCs).

METHODSHuman tonsil tissues were obtained from the children patients with chronic tonsillitis. TMSCs were separated, cultured, and were detected the expression profiles of HLA-I, HLA-II, CD80, CD86 by flow cytometry. The measurement of immunogenicity, the effect on phytohemagglutinin (PHA) induced peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMCs) proliferation and mixed lymphocytes reaction (MLR) were performed to identify the immunological characteristics of TMSCs. The co-cultures of TMSCs + PBMCs + PHA and TMSCs + MLR were established, respectively, and the concentration of kynurenine, which is the metabolin of indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase, in the culture supernatant were examined. Then we added 1-methyl-L-tryptophan into the co-culture of TMSCs + PBMCs + PHA and TMSCs + MLR, respectively, and tested the proliferation of PBMCs. Each experiment was repeated three times, and there were six samples in each group. Statistical significance was assessed by analysis of variance (ANOVA), and a P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

RESULTSTMSCs expressed HLA-I, were negative for HLA-II and co-stimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86. The stimulation index in the group of TMSCs + allogeneic PBMCs was 1.38 ± 0.26, whereas the stimulation index in the group of allogeneic PBMCs was 1.22 ± 0.28, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05), indicating that TMSCs could not initiate the proliferation of allogeneic PBMCs. The stimulation indexes in the group of TMSCs + allogeneic PBMCs + PHA were 1.49 ± 0.29 and 1.23 ± 0.22, respectively, whereas the stimulation index in the group of allogeneic PBMCs + PHA was 4.60 ± 0.81, and the difference between the two groups had a statistical significance (P < 0.05) suggesting that TMSCs could inhibit PHA-induced PBMCs proliferation. The stimulation indexes in the group of TMSCs + MLR were 1.29 ± 0.23 and 1.26 ± 0.27, respectively, however, the stimulation index in the group of MLR was 3.04 ± 0.66, and the difference between the two groups had a statistical significance (P < 0.05), demonstrating that TMSCs could suppress MLR-induced PBMCs proliferation. The levels of kynurenine were (26.0 ± 2.3) μmol/L and (23.5 ± 4.5) μmol/L in the culture of TMSCs + PBMCs + PHA and TMSCs + MLR, respectively, thus elevating significantly. After adding of 1-methyl-L-tryptophan, TMSCs-mediated-proliferation suppression of PBMCs restored to normal levels.

CONCLUSIONTMSCs possess low immunogenecity and immunosuppressive function, may be used in allogeneic transplantation.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of fetal intravascular transfusion via the intrahepatic vein in the treatment of fetal anemia.Methods:This was a retrospective analysis of all fetuses requiring intrauterine transfusion (IUT) in the Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital between January 2010 and December 2019. According to the different ways of IUT, they were divided into intrahepatic venous transfusion group and umbilical venous transfusion group, fetal outcomes and the incidence of procedure-related complications between the two groups were compared.Results:A total of 97 IUTs were performed on 48 fetuses. Among them, 16 cases were performed in the intrahepatic vein (31 transfusions), 32 cases were performed in the cord of the umbilical vein (66 transfusions).There were no significant differences between the two groups in age, labor history and the proportion of fetal hydrops before the first transfusion. In the intrahepatic venous transfusion group, the posterior placenta was 14/16, which was significantly higher than 78% (25/32) in the umbilical venous transfusion group ( P<0.01). The live-birth rates of the two groups were 13/16 and 75% (24/32). There was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Before intrahepatic venous transfusion, the proportion of fetal hydrops was significantly higher than that of umbilical venous transfusion [55% (17/31) vs 24% (16/66), P<0.05]. Puncture success rate of intrahepatic venous transfusion and umbilical venous transfusion were both 100%. In the umbilical venous transfasion group, the incidence of needle slippage (5%, 3/66) and the abnormality of fetal heart rate (11%, 7/66) were higher than those in the intrahepatic venous transfasion group [0 and 3% (1/31)], but there were no significant differences between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were no cases of fetal loss within 24 hours, premature rupture of membranes, infection within 7 days and emergency cesarean section after IUT in both groups. Conclusions:Fetal intravascular transfusion via the intrahepatic vein is safe and feasible in the treatment of fetal anemia. But the requirements of puncture technique are relatively high, so it is recommended to be carried out in experienced fetal treatment center.
