Objective To investigate the effects of different dose of tranexamic acid in fibrinolysis during liver transplantation. Methods Sixty ASA Ⅱ~ Ⅳ liver transplant recipients, were randomly, double-blind assigned to one of 3 groups (n = 20): group control (group C), group tranexamic acid 1 (group T1) and group tranexamic acid 2 (group T2). The patients in group C received a loading dose of normal saline 10 mL, then continued infuse normal saline at 20 mL/h until neohepatic phase 120 min, while in other two groups, patients received a loading dose of tranexamic acid 1 g, totally 10 mL, followed by continuous infusion at 10 mg/(kg·h) in group T1 or 20 mg/(kg·h) in group T2 until neohepatic phase 120 min. Prothrombin time, fibrinogen, fibrin degradation product and D-dimers were measured before operation (T0), 120 min after the skin incision (T1), nonhepatic phase 30 min (T2), neohepatic phase 120 min (T3). Blood loss, fresh frozen plasma dosage, fibrinogen dosage and thromboembolic events were recorded. Results The plasma concentration of fibrin degradation product and plasma concentration of D-dimers were different in the 3 groups, group T2< group T1 0.05). Conclusions Continuous infusion of tranexamic acid can inhibit fibrinolysis during liver transplantation. No adverse event of thrombosis was detected. Larger dose of tranexamic acid can reduce blood loss and fresh frozen plasma transfusion.

All samples were obtained fresh, fixed with 10% buffered formalin immediately, embedded with paraffin and then sectioned serially. Results:The positive expression rates of P16 and P15 were 17.45% and 28.3% in PGC, and 15.95% and 28.3% in MLN respectively. The positive expression rates of P16 and P15 in PGC with lymph node metastasis was lower than that without lymph node metastasis ( P

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of 3D printing technology in percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PCNL) to complex renal calculi.Methods:The clinical data of 41 patients with complex renal calculi from May 2018 to October 2019, in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University and Xiang'an District of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 19 cases underwent PCNL after 3D printing (3D printing group), and 22 cases during the same period did not undergo 3D printing before operation (control group). Before operation, the two groups underwent CT plain scan enhanced examination. In 3D printing group, 3D printing technology was used to obtain 3D renal models, then 3D renal models were used for preoperative design and simulation of surgical puncture and preoperative conversation.The control group only underwent PCNL after routine examination.The ages of the patients in 3D printing group and control group were (42.9±2.5) vs. (41.3±2.9) years old, male/female ratio 11/8 vs. 12/10, body mass index (22.4±1.1) vs. (23.2±1.4) kg/m 2, serum creatinine (42.9±2.5) vs. (78.2±4.5) μmol/L, stone size (5.0±1.2) vs. (5.2±1.3) cm, the CT values of the stones was (930±210) vs.(950±200) HU. The difference of above parameters was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The following indexes were compared between the two groups: score of questionnaire on satisfaction of preoperative conversation, and datas about operation and postopetation. Results:All the operations were successfully completed. The time of locating the target calyces in 3D printing group and control group was (3.3±1.3) vs. (5.3±3.1) min, and the coincidence of puncture calices was 94.7% (18/19) vs. 54.5%(12/22), and the stone removal rate of the 3D printing group was 78.9% (17/19) vs. 36.4% (8/22), 3D printing group was better than the control group in these respects( P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in postoperative complications [21.0% (4/19) vs. 13.6% (3/22)], multi-channel[89.4% (17/19) vs. 86.4% (19/22)], operation time [(121.8±20.2) vs. (132.1±18.5) min], time of hospitalization [(7.6±1.3) vs. (8.0±1.8)d] and time of extubation for renal fistula [(3.8±1.7)vs. (4.5±2.0 )d] (all P > 0.05). During preoperative conversation between the 3D printing group and the control group , the time spent on signing the consent [(17.0±3.9) vs.(21.0±3.3) min], the degree of understanding of the stone condition [(2.5±0.6)vs.(2.0±1.2) points], the degree of understanding of the PCNL surgical process and complications [(2.6±0.6) vs.(1.8±1.3) points] and the degree of satisfaction with the doctor’s preoperative conversation effects [(2.4±0.9) vs.(1.7±1.6) points]were significantly different in comparisons ( P<0.05). Conclusions:3D printing technology can be used in PCNL to directly display the internal anatomical relationship of renal calculi, guide accurate preoperative designing, help improve the operation efficiency and stone clearance rate, and can also be used as a mold in preoperative conversation to improve communication efficiency.

Objective To investigate the clinical results of minimally invasive fixation of the sacroiliac triangle for vertically unstable pelvic posterior ring injury. Methods A retrospective study was conducted of 20 patients who had been treated for vertically unstable pelvic posterior ring from January 2014 to August 2016. They were 12 males and 8 females, aged from 20 to 58 years ( average, 35 years ) . According to Tile classification for pelvic fractures, there were 4 cases of type C1. 1, 6 cases of type C1. 2, 7 cases of type C1. 3 and 3 cases of type C2. Their posterior rings were treated by fixation through posterior paraspinal approach with S1-iliac pedicle screws plus percutaneous sacroiliac screws, and their anterior rings by closed reduction and internal fixation with cannulated screws, Infix or plate following open reduction. The incision length, operation time and intraoperative blood loss were recorded. Postoperative reduction quality was assessed by Matta radio-logical criteria and pelvic function by Majeed criteria at the final follow-ups. Results Altogether 20 fixation systems of S1-iliac pedicle screws and 37 sacroiliac joint screws were inserted in this series. The length of incision ranged from 5. 5 to 7. 6 cm ( average, 6. 2 cm ) , the operation time from 89 to 130 minutes ( average, 98 minutes) and the intraoperative blood loss from 110 to 320 mL (average, 195 mL). According to Matta ra-diological criteria, reduction was excellent in 13, good in 5 and fair in 2 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 90％. The follow-up time for the 20 patients ranged from 6 to 15 months ( average, 9 months ) . The healing time ranged from 10 to 14 weeks ( average, 12. 5 weeks ) . At the final follow-ups, X-ray and CT three-dimensional reconstruction showed fine fracture union. By the Majeed criteria, the pelvic function was excellent in 11 cases, good in 5, fair in 3, and poor in one, with an excellent and good rate of 80％. No loosening, breakage or pull-out of pedicle screws or sacroiliac screws happened. Conclusion Minimally invasive fixation of the sacroiliac triangle for vertically unstable pelvic posterior ring injury can lead to precise placement, quick recovery, small incision and good functional outcome.

Objective To determine the relationship of the expression of aquaporin 5 (AQP5)with clinicopathology and prognosis of colorectal cancer.Methods We collected data from 45 patients with primary colorectal cancer without any adjuvant therapy before operation.The expression of AQP5 was measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC).Then we analyzed the correlation between AQP5 expression and clinicopathological parameters (including age,tumor size,clinical staging,tumor location,lymph node and pathological type)and the connection between AQP5 expression and prognosis based on follow-up data.Results Of the 45 tumor specimens,14 (31.1%)had a high level of AQP5 expression,29 (64.4%)exhibited a moderate level of staining,and 2 (4.4%)had an absence of AQP5 staining.AQP5 was only occasionally detected in para-neoplastic [3/45 (6.67%)]and normal tissues [3/45 (6.67%)].The overexpression of AQP5 was also positively associated with TNM stage (P =0.002),lymph node metastasis (P =0.01 6),and distant metastasis (P =0.000).However,it had no significant association with age, gender,histologic grade or tumor size (P > 0.05 ).Conclusion AQP5 may be used as a novel biomarker for predicting the prognosis of colorectal cancer.

Objective To analyze the influential factors of clinical pregnancy rate of the frozen-thawed embryo transplantation. Methods The data of 3 192 FET patients in the reproductive medicine center of our hospital up to May 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. According to ages, reasons of infertility, types of infertility, duration of infertility, drug regimen, the number and the time of embryo transplantation, we divided these patients into six groups for comparing the clinical pregnancy rate. Results The FET clinical pregnancy rate of the under 35 years group was higher than the 35~39 years group and the over 39 years group (33.96%vs. 27.58%and 19.35%; P<0.05, respectively). The duration of infertility in the clinical pregnancy group was significantly shorter than the non-pregnancy group (P<0.05). The clinical pregnancy rate in the group with three embryos transplanted was higher than the group with only two embryos transplanted (41.01% vs. 28.75%; P < 0.05). Among the group with the age of over 40 years, those with three embryos transplanted had a higher clinical pregnancy rate than those with only one embryo transplanted (25.49% vs. 0.00%; P < 0.05). The clinical pregnancy rate of the frozen blastocyst transplantation group was higher than that of the cleavage-stage transplantation group (40.00%vs. 26.27%;P<0.05). Conclusion Age, infertility duration, the number and the time of frozen embryo transplantation may affect the clinical pregnancy rate among the FET patients. An individualized transplantation program based on age may improve the patient′s clinical pregnancy rate.
