Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2015;(7):607-609
Objective To assess patient ’ s fallopian tube function after laparoscopic salpingotomy for tubal ectopic pregnancy.Methods We observed the degree of pelvic adhesion and previous tubal patency by laparoscopic secondary exploration. The fallopian tube function were evaluated in 24 cases ( 26 fallopian tubes ) which had experienced laparoscopic salpingotomy. Results There were 4 cases of severe adhesions (16.7%), 4 cases of moderate adhesions (16.7%), 5 cases of mild adhesions (20.8%), and 11 cases of minor adhesions (45.8%).The status of fallopian tubes:tubal rapture and tissue absence were seen in 11 oviducts (42.3%), intact but obviously shortened oviduct with distal hydrops was seen in 11 oviducts (42.3%), and normal oviduct was recorded in 4 oviducts (15.4%).The methylene blue flow test was performed in the 26 tubes, showing 23 (88.5%) occluded and 3(11.5%) patent. Conclusions The fallopian tubes have incomplete shapes after laparoscopic tubal fenestration for ectopic pregnancy in most patients.We confirm that laparoscopic salpingotomy can not preserve the fertility effectively.

Objective To observe the synapse formation in hippocampal dentate gyrus, and the memory ability after transplanting bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) into lateral ventricle of ischemic brain injury rats. Methods BMSCs from femur of a Sprague-Dawley rat were cultured for 3 generations in vitro. 60 newborn Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham group (n=20), model group (n=20) and BMSCs group (n=20). The latter 2 groups were ligated the left common carotid artery, and the BMSCs group were injected BMSCs into the lateral ventricle 7 days after ligation. They were tested with Morris's water maze 8 weeks later, and then, the brains were immunohistochemical staining to detect synaptophysin (SY). Results The time of probe trial of acquisition phase (T1) and reveral phase (T2) decreased in the model group compared with the sham group (P<0.05), and increased in the BMSCs group compared with the model group (P<0.05). The integral optical density (IOD) of SY positive cells decreased in the model group compared with the sham group (P<0.05), and increased in the BMSCs group compared with the model group (P<0.05). Conclusion BMSCs implantation through lateral ventricle can improve the learning and memory ability of rats, which may associated with the synapse formation in dentate gyrus.

Objective To investigate the effect of milk basic protein (MBP) on bone metabolism in normal and ovariectomized (Ovx) rats. Method Forty-eight female Sprague-Dawley rats were ovariectomized and another 12 rats received sham operation (Sham). After 10 d recovery period, the Ovx rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: control, low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose MBP group. Another 44 normal female rats without ovariectomy were also divided into 4 groups as above. The MBP dosages for each group were respectively 0, 10, 20, 30 mg/kg bw. All rats were i.g. administered for 90 d. Bone mineral density (BMD) of the femur (at proximal end, middle of diaphysis, and distal end) was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in vivo. The amounts of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus were analyzed by ICP-AES. Results BMD at distal end of femur was significantly higher in normal low-dose group than in normal control group while no significant effect was observed in Ovx MBP groups. As for the amounts of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus, there were no significant differences among normal experimental groups and also among Ovx experimental groups. However, some variations in the level of those minerals were observed. Conclusion MBP at 10 mg/kg bw significantly elevated BMD at femoral distal end in normal rats, while no similar effect was observed in Ovx rats. Besides its influence on bone minerals, there may be another mechanism involved in its effect on bone metabolism.
