Gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis is an uncommon complication of pregnancy that incurs a high risk of morbidity and mortality of both maternal and fetal patients.We described the response of continous renal replacement therapy in a woman with extreme gestational hyperlipidemia and severe pancreatitis.Five consecutive plasma exchanges didn't lead to a remarkable reduction(10.4% and 4.8%,for the first and fourth times,respectively) at triglyceride levels as the literatures have reported,which reveals that plasma exchange and continous veno-venous heamofiltration may be importment,instead of crucial methods in dealing with gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis.Abstract:SUMM ARY Gestational hyperlipidem ic pancreatitis is an uncommon complication of pregnancy that in-curs a high risk ofmorbid ity and mortality of both maternal and fetal patients.W e described the response of continous renal replacement therapy in a woman with extreme gestational hyperlipidem ia and severe pancreatitis.Five consecutive plasma exchanges d idn’t lead to a remarkable reduction(10.4% and 4.8%,for the first and fourth times,respectively) at triglyceride levels as the literatures have reported,which reveals that plasma exchange and continous veno-venous heamofiltration may be importment,in-stead of crucialmethods in dealing with gestational hyperlipidem ic pancreatitis.

We report a case of a 35-year-old right-handed male patient with drug-resistant mesial temporal lobe epilepsy who developed ipsilateral occipital hematoma after right temporal anterior lobectomy and amygdalohippocampectomy. Patient did not report taking any drugs with anticoagulant effect, such as aspirin or valproate. There was no past history of hypertension and the pre-operation tests were normal. Pre-operative brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed no abnormality in the right occipital lobe. Overdraining of cerebrospinal fluid may have triggered this remote cerebellar hemorrhage.

OBJECTIVE:To study the influence of calcineurin gene polymorphism on the efficacy of cyclosporine A (CsA). METHODS:The blood samples of patients treated with CsA were collected. The trough blood concentration of CsA was detected by EMIT. The genotype of PPP3CA and PPP3CB was assayed by RFLP-PCR method. The expression of NFAT-regulated gene IL-2, IFN-γand GM-CSF were measured by RT-qPCR,which were used to define the index of indirect efficacy of CsA. The relationship of gene polymorphism with CsA efficacy was study by relationship analysis and multiple factor regression method,etc. RESULTS:A to-tal of 100 blood samples were collected. There was no significant correlation between the expression of CsA efficacy-related NFAT-reg-ulated gene GM-CSF and trough concentration of CsA(rGM-CSF=-0.04,P=0.238);the expression of IL-2 and IFN-γ were negatively correlated with trough concentration of CsA significantly(rIL-2=-0.384 3,P<0.001;rIFN-γ=-0.335 4,P<0.001). Using the average value of mRNA expression of IL-2 and IFN-γas indirect efficacy index,the polymorphism of PPP3CB rs3763679 site significantly in-fluenced the efficacy of CsA(P<0.05),but PPP3CA rs3804358 had no any effect on it(P>0.05). Stratified analysis showed that among patients with immune disease underwent renal transplantation,efficacy of patients with PPP3CB rs3763679 genovariation(TC+TT) were better than those with wild-type gene (CC)(P<0.05). After the efficacy was normalized by CsA trough concentration, multivariate analysis showed that normalized efficacy of CsA was negatively correlated with gender,PPP3CB rs3763679,lactate dehy-drogenase and creatinine significantly,but positively correlated with PPP3CA rs3804358,leucocyte count,usea nitrogen,glycerin trilaurate,etc. CONCLUSIONS:PPP3CB rs3763679 gene polymorphism influence the efficacy of CsA;among patients with immune disease underwent renal transplantation,efficacy of patients with PPP3CB rs3763679 TT+TC is better than that of CC type. At the same time,gender,PPP3CA rs3804358,leucocyte count,usea nitrogen,glycerin trilaurate and other factors all can influence the nor-malized efficacy of CsA to different extent. Multiple factors should be considered when using CsA.

Objective:To explore the clinical outcomes of anatomical double-bundle medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction with double suture anchor technique in treating patellofemoral instability in adolescent.Methods:Twenty-five young people with patellofemoral instability (25 knees) in our department from January 2013 to December 2014 were enrolled for this study.All patients were performed anatomical double-bundle MPFL reconstruction with arthroscopic-assisted suture anchors technique in the patella,and fixed in the femoral socket with absorbable interference screw.All patients are evaluated by different methods,including patient's satisfaction,patellar apprehension test,recurrent subluxation/dislocation,CT assessment of bone tunnel and patellar tilt angle.Lysholm scores,Tegner scores and Kujala scores were recorded at the final follow-up.Results:The mean follow-up was 24 (range 20-40) months.All cases were observed in negative patellar apprehension test.Infection,recurrent subluxation/dislocation and patellar fracture were not found at the last follow-up.CT results demonstrated that the tunnel position were good.The patellar tilt angle was decreased from 21.6°±2.3° to 10.5°±1.6° (P＜0.05);the Lysholm scores was increased from 51.7±5.3 to 93.8±6.5 (P＜0.05).Tegner scores was increased from 4.1± 1.1 to 5.5±0.6 (P＜0.05).Kujala scores was increased from 53.5±6.4 to 94.6±4.3 (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Arthroscopic-assisted anatomical double-bundle MPFL reconstruction with the suture anchors technique is a safe,minimal invasive and effective surgical option for treating patellofemoral instability in adolescent.

BACKGROUND:Poly-D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) that was characterized as absorbable,weak cytotoxicity,and adjustable hardness was ideal to be synthetized artificial spinal dura mater.Because of lacking of functional group at the surface of PLGA,it should be modified to fit the demand of satisfied biocompatibility.OBJECTIVE:To study the biocompatibility of PLGA membrane modified by type-Ⅰ collagen and chitosan.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Contrast observation study,which was carded out in the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Laboratory Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from May to December 2007.MATERIALS:Porous PLGA membrane was provided by Jinan Banzheng Biology-Technology Co.,Ltd.,type-Ⅰ collagen by Sigma Company,USA,chitosan by Shanghai Qisheng Biological Agent Medical Apparatus and Instrument Company,and L929 L cell by Cellular Institute of Shanghai Academy of Life Science,Chinese Academy of Science.METHODS:PLGA membrane (P membrane),PLGA/type-Ⅰ collagen composite membrane (PG membrane),PLGA/type-Ⅰ collagen/chitosan (9:1) composite membrane (PGC 9:1 membrane) and PLGA/type-Ⅰ collagen/chitosan (5:5) composite membrane (PGC 5:5 membrane) were produced through a certain process.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Contact angle,absorption rate and cytotoxicity were tested.Morphological changes of L929 L cell cultured for 1,3,and 7 days were observed under fiberscope.RESULTS:Contact angle was shown as PG membrane＜PGC 9:1 membrane＜PGC 5:5 membrane＜P membrane (P＜0.01 );absorption rate was shown as P membrane＜PGC 5:5 membrane＜PGC 9:1 membrane＜PG membrane (P＜0.01).L929 L cell was characterized as well distribution,expansion and appearance after inoculation of PG membrane,PGC 9:1 membrane and PGC 5:5 membrane.Cytotoxic experiment (MTT methods) showed that,on the 1st day,there was no significant difference in absorbency among groups (P＞0.05).On the 3rd and 7th days,there were significant differences between P membrane and PG membrane or PGC 9:1 membrane,and between PGC 9:1 membrane and PCK2 5:5 membrane (P＜0.05).PGC 9:1 membrane could further improve cell adhesion and proliferation,and PGC 5:5 membrane could inhibit cell proliferation and differentiation.CONCLUSION:Type-Ⅰ collagen and chitosan appended to the exterior of PLGA can enhance the biocompatibility of membrane.In terms of biocompatibility,PLGA/type-Ⅰ collagen/chitosan (9:1) composite membrane can be fit to the qualification as a type of material of artificial spinal dura mater.
