Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of a newly-designed temporary covered cardia stent for the treatment of achalasia in canine models and to investigate the histopathological changes at different points of follow-up time after the stent was removed. Methods The canine achalasia model was created by injecting benzyl-dimethyl-tetradecyl ammonium chloride (BAC) circumferentially into the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) of the dogs. Twenty-four dogs with achalasia were randomly and equally divided into two groups with 12 dogs in each group:control group (using routine esophageal stents) and study group (using newly-designed temporary covered cardia stents). Under fluoroscopic guidance stents were implanted in the esophagus and were taken away from the esophagus 4 days after stent insertion in experimental dogs of both groups. LES pressures and timed barium esophagography (TBE) were performed in all dogs before and immediately after the stenting procedure,as well as at one week,3 and 6 months after the stent was removed. Every three dogs were sacrificed each time at one week,3 and 6 months after the stent was removed. The esophageal cardia was excised and sent for pathological examination. Results All animals well tolerated the stent insertion / removal and the follow-up procedures. No severe complications such as esophageal perforation occurred. Comparison between two groups showed that stent migration occurrence was much lower in study group (n = 1) than that in control group (n = 5). The reduction of LES pressures in study group was more significant in comparison with control group (at 6-month follow-up,P = 0.027). The difference in barium column product (height ? width) between 0-min and 5-min TBE was statistically significant in study group (at 3-month follow-up,P = 0.009). Integrated analysis of multi-comparison for LES pressures among subgroups of each group revealed that the dogs in study group exhibited better outcomes than the dogs in control group. Both proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and ?-smooth muscle actin (?-SMA) immuno-staining revealed that the inflammatory reaction reached its peak at 1-month follow-up. Trichrome staining indicated that the collagenous fiber proliferating index inclined to be stable at 3-month follow-up. Conclusion In treating achalasia in canine models the newly-designed temporary covered cardia stent is superior to the routine esophageal stent in respect of safety and efficacy.

Objective To explore the incidence of olfactory dysfunction in patients with Parkinson disease and the characteristic as well as its possible influencing factors. Methods The SS-12 was used to evaluate the olfactory function of 106 patients with Parkinson's disease and 110 healthy volunteers. The data was then compared between the two groups to investigate the correlation of olfactory function with age, gender, education, smoking, disease duration, Hohn-Yahr stage, UPDRSⅢscores, the dosage of levodopao and olfactory scores. Results Mean identification scores were significantly lower in patients(5.97 ± 2.27)than in controls(8.04 ± 2.00)(t=7.108, P=7.108). Parkinson's disease group did worse than the control group in identifying some odors including peppermint, bananas,liquorice,coffee,pineap?ple,rose and fish (P<0.05). Receiver Operating Characteristic curves revealed that 7.5 was the best olfactory dysfunc?tion diagnostic boundary value with 67.3%sensitivity and 73.6%specificity. Thus, the incidence of olfactory dysfunc?tion in Parkinson's disease was 73.6%. Correlation analysis showed that gender(rs=0.243, P=0.012), education(rs=0.208, P=0.032) and smoking(rs=0.279, P=0.279) were associated with odor identification ability, while age, disease du?ration, Hohn-Yahr stage, UPDRSⅢscores and the dosage of levodopa were not related with odor identification abilityin Parkinson disease (P>0.05). Conclusion Olfactory dysfunction occurs in Parkinson disease with an hign incidence rate. Olfactory function has nothing to do with disease duration, Hohn-Yahr stage, UPDRSⅢscores and the dosage of levodopa in Parkinson disease.

BACKGROUND:Gene-modified stem cel s can increase the secretion of peptides and ful-length proteins to protect spinal cord injury and promote recovery of neuronal function, which thus become a research hotspot in recent years. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of nerve growth factor-modified adipose derived stem cel s in repairing spinal cord injury in rats. METHODS:Adipose derived stem cel s were primarily cultured by adherent culture method and cel surface markers were detected by immunofluorescence method, while spinal cord injury models were set by modified Al en method. Nerve growth factor plasmid was transfected into adipose derived stem cel s with Lipofectamine2000 and the expression of nerve growth factor was detected by real-time PCR and western blot. The modified adipose derived stem cel s intervened by nerve growth factor were injected into the injured part of spinal cord injury rat models. Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan score was used to evaluate the repairing effect. Models rats were sacrificed at 3 weeks after cel transplantation. Real-time PCR and western blot were used to testify nerve growth factor expression in the injured spinal segment after cel transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Adipose derived stem cel s were successful y cultured primarily, and positive for CD29 and CD44;the mRNA and protein expression of nerve growth factor was elevated after plasmid transfection. The Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan score was elevated after transplantation of adipose derived stem cel s intervened by nerve growth factor modification compared to control group;and the expression of nerve growth factor in the injured segment of the spinal cord was up-regulated detected by real-time PCR and western blot. These findings indicate that the nerve growth factor-modified adipose derived stem cel s have repairing effects on spinal cord injury in rats.
