Liver transplantation is the most effective treatment for end-stage liver diseases.To expand the donor source,the Ministry of Health (MOH) initiated a new national program called Donation of Citizen's Deceased (DCD) to address the need for organ transplantation in 2010.However,it has been proven that DCD liver transplantation has the poorer graft function in short-and long-term outcome compared to live donor liver transplantation.In order to improve the effect of DCD liver transplantation,the preconditioning of DCD liver,as an effective measure,is gaining more and more attention.This review summarizes the recent research progress on the application of preconditioning in DCD liver transplantation during perioperative period.

Objective To investigate the eye lens dose to the operators who tended to test the quality control of positron emission tomography (PET).Methods Before encapsulation and in preparation of point source,line source 1 and line source 2,the two operators were worn with lens thermoluminescence dosimeter each at the left of the left eye,the front of the left eye,between the right eye and the left eye,the left of the right eye,and the front of the right eye.Measurement and analysis were made of the radiation doses to eye lens received by the operators in order to calculate their maximum annual doses.Results The maximum lens dose was 2 439.80 μSv for the test of 5 PETs.There appears to be the same trend in the eye lens doses for the first and second operators.(x2 =15.629-16.155,P ＜ 0.05).The first operator have received higher eye lens dose higher than the second(Z =2.611,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The dose to the eye lens for a single PET test is relatively low.

Objective To determine the risk factors of urinary tract infection (UTI) after renal transplantation,so as to provide a theoretical basis of reducing the rate of postoperative UTI effectively.Method Such databases as CNKI,VIP,Wanfang,Pubmed,Embase,Ovid,and EBSCO were searched from January 1995 to December 2015 for collecting the studies about UTI after renal transplantation.The search keywords were renal transplantation,kidney transplantation,urinary tract infection and risk factors.Meta-analysis was performed by using the RevMan 5.2 software.Result Fifteen studies were identified,including 1 236 patients in UTI group and 2 729 patients in the control group (non UTI group).The two groups had no significant differences in recipient age,diabetes mellitus history,peritoneal dialysis,cytomegaovirus infection,acute rejection,usage of MMF,usage of Tacrolimus,usage of CsA and retransplantation.The incidence of UTI after renal transplantation was significantly higher in female patients than male patients (OR:2.69;95％ CI:1.92-3.77;P＜0.000 01).The incidence of UTI of cadaveric renal transplantation was higher than living donor renal transplantation (OR:1.51;95％ CI:1.71-1.95;P=0.002).Using D-J tube for urinary reconstruction significantly increased the incidence of UTI (OR:1.51;95 ％ CI:1.07-2.13;P =0.02).Patients in the UTI group had a significantly longer preoperative dialysis time (WMD:1.48;95％ CI:0.22-2.74;P =0.02).Conclusion The female recipients,cadaveric renal transplantation,using D-J tube and prolonged preoperative dialysis time were factors affecting the risk of UTI.UTI after renal transplantation had no relationship with recipient age,diabetes mellitus history,peritoneal dialysis,cytomegaovirus infection,acute rejection,usage of MMF,Tacrolimus and CsA,and retransplantation.

Based on the optimized technology on 50L scale, B subtilis 754# was used to manufacture guanosine on pilot scale (12M 3) and plant scale (100M 3) to give the production of 29 4g/L and 21 4g/L successively Through scale down the process of plant scale to pilot scale, based on the theory of dynamic metabolic flux, DO was found to be another key factor that limited the scale up process After conquering the DO limitation, the optimized technology was successfully scaled up to plant scale and the production was further increased by 18% to 25 2 g/L

Objective:To summarize the clinical experiences of pediatric en-bloc kidney transplantation (EBKT) at a single center and explore the measures of improving its efficacy.Methods:Clinical data and outcomes retrospectively analyzed for 38 EBKT children between September 2014 and November 2019 from Department of Urology Affiliated Union Hospital Tongji Medical College Huazhong University of Science & Technology. The pediatric donors were aged (63.6±5.7) days with a weight of (4.1±0.2) kg. And the transplant recipients were aged (28.1±1.4) years with a weight of (48.7±4.9) kg. Serum levels of creatinine and basic profiles of both donors and recipients were recorded at Day 0/7/30/90/80/360 post-EBKT. The postoperative occurrences of such complications such as thrombosis, urine leakage, delayed graft function (DGF), proteinuria and hematoma were measured.Results:The one-year graft survival rate was 76.3%(29/38) and the recipient survival rate 100.0%(38/38). Among 29 recipients with long-term graft survival, no dialysis was required at Week 2 post-EBKT and the serum level of creatinine dropped to normal at Year 1. Thrombosis was a major post-EBKT complication with an incidence of 18.4%(7/38). The other complications included urine leakage (20.7%, 6/29), hematoma (6.9%, 2/29) and primary non-functioning kidney (2.6%, 1/38).Conclusions:As an effective way of expanding the pool of donors, pediatric EBKT is clinically feasible.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors for gallstones complicated by acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP). MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of patients who were admitted to Department of General Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, from January 2014 to September 2017 due to abdominal pain and then diagnosed with gallstones. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups, and the binary logistic regression analysis was used as multivariate analysis. ResultsA total of 700 patients with gallstones were enrolled, among whom 167 were complicated by ABP, resulting in an incidence rate of 23.86%. The univariate analysis showed that sex, gallbladder size, gallbladder wall thickness, gallstone size, the number of gallstones, and presence or absence of common bile duct stones were associated with the development of ABP (all P＜0.05). A multivariate analysis was performed for the factors with statistical difference identified by the univariate analysis, and the results showed that male sex (odds ratio ［OR］=1.879, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 1.279-2.758, P＜0.05), abnormal gallbladder size (OR=0.282, 95%CI: 0.184-0.434, P＜0.05), gallbladder wall thickness ≤3 mm (OR=2.245, 95%CI: 1.490-3.383, P＜0.05), gallbladder stone diameter ＞1 cm (OR=0.438, 95%CI: 0.249-0.769, P＜0.05), single gallstone (OR=0.222, 95% CI: 0.130-0.378, P＜005), and presence of common bile duct stones (OR=2.775, 95%CI: 1.694-4.546, P＜0.05) were significantly associated with the development of ABP. ConclusionMale sex, normal gallbladder size, gallbladder wall thickness ≤3 mm, gallbladder stone diameter ≤1 cm, multiple gallstones, and presence of common bile duct stones are independent risk factors for ABP in patients with gallstones.

Objective To make a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in recurrence and metastasis of the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), some invasion related oncogenes, and growth factors have been investigated. Methods The studies were seperately carried out, the results of which were summarized in this article with relation to tumor size and invasiveness of HCC.Results The aberration rates of p53 and CDKN2 in HCC were 45.9% and 36.4% respectively, which were higher in invasive HCC compared with non-invasive HCC. H-ras expression was positive in 29.3% of HCC, which was associated with recurrence and extrahepatic metastasis of HCC. Intralesional injection of H-ras antisense gene markedly inhibited the tumor growth and metastasis of HCC in nude mice. The positive rates of transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and c-erbB-2 were 45.7%, 47.1% and 92.3% respectively. The expression of EGFR was closely related to TGF-alpha, which was related to HCC recurrence. But no obvious difference of TGF-alpha or c-erbB-2 expression was found between HCC with and without recurrence, or with and without extrahepatic metastasis. Expression of nm23 / tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-2 was positively associated with the prognosis of HCC patients (Log-rank, P<0.001). The alterative rates of above-mentioned genes and growth factors in small HCC were slightly lower than that in large ones, but no significant difference was shown except the p53 mutation.Conclusions The p53/CDKN2 mutation, overexpression of H-ras/EGFR, were associated with the invasiveness and recurrence of HCC. H-ras antisense gene might be of potential implication in the control of HCC recurrence and metastasis. Expression of nm23/TIMP-2 was closely related to the prognosis of HCC patients. Biological characteristics remained critical points to the prognosis even in small HCC.

Liver transplantation has become the most effective treatment for end-stage liver diseases.Due to the shortage of organ,more and more extended criteria donors (ECD) grafts had been used,which expand the liver pool.However,a series of complications post transplantation were caused by ischemia,hypoxia,steatosis and so on.The non-anastomotic biliary strictures after liver transplantation is one of the major complications when the ECD donors was be used in clinic.The study on the protective effect of machine perfusion on liver donors is too numerous to list,and existing studies have found that MP can reduce the incidence of NAS after liver transplantation.This review provides an overview of the pathogenesis of NAS and the reduction incidence of NAS by MP.

Organ transplantation is the most effective method to treat end-stage organ failure. As the increase of transmission risk of donor-derived diseases, the quality, safety and selection criteria of transplanted organs become more and more important. Chapter 7 of the European Union's Guide to the Quality and Safety of Organs for Transplantation (6th Edition) proposed basic requirements in terms of donor and organ quality assessment, selection criteria and procedures, which were worthy of study and practice in clinical practice.

Objective:To survey the current radiological health capability of 16 perferture-level disease control centers (CDCs) in Shandong province and analyze their shortcomings and disadvantages, in order to provide relevant reference basis for the radiological health capability building of such CDCs.Methods:Survey was carried out of radiology department, radiological health staff, equipment allocation, capabillity building and scientific research of these CDCs, together with the relevant data obtained being statistically analyzed.Results:In these CDCs of 16 cities in Shandong province, there were 70 staff engaged in radiological health, with 3 cities having independent radiological departments in place. There were statistically significant differences between independent departments and non-independent departments in the exclusive use of X-ray diagnostic examination equipment, medical electron accelerator examination equipment and on-site quality control testing work ( χ2=0.04, 0.01, 0.04, P<0.05). Between inland and coastal cities there was statistically significant difference in the capability dealing with nuclear and radiological emergency ( χ2=0.02, P<0.05). Conclusions:Independent departments are more conducive to the implement of government′s functional tasks than non-independent departments. There exist shortcomings and weaknesses in human resources, equipment allocation, in-food radioactivity testing, nuclear and radiological emergency in 16 prefectures and cities, so that the capability building needs to be further improved.
