BACKGROUND:The form and structure of antigen-extracted xenogeneic cancel ous bone through series of physical and chemical treatment are similar to human tissue. OBJECTIVE:To detect the biocompatibility of antigen-extracted xenogeneic cancel ous bone matrix prepared by three different ways. METHODS:The antigen-extracted xenogeneic cancel ous bone scaffold materials which were prepared through physical, chemical and physical-chemical combined methods and hydroxy apatite biological ceramic materials were implanted into the dorsum subcutaneous tissue. Histological observation was done at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after surgery. The antigen-extracted xenogeneic cancel ous bone scaffold materials which were prepared through physical, chemical and physical-chemical combined methods respectively was used to culture sheep bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for 7 days. Cel adhesion, growth, proliferation and stroma secretion were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 4 weeks after surgery, a strong inflammatory reaction was detected around materials in four groups. At 12 weeks, the xenogeneic bone materials prepared through physical and physical-chemical combined methods and hydroxy apatite biological ceramic materials internal pore and surrounding tissue inflammation disappeared basical y, with the presence of thimbleful inflammation cells. The material degradation was more than at 8 weeks. The xenogeneic bone materials prepared through chemical methods material internal pore and surrounding tissue inflammation stil existed, suggesting that the xenogeneic bone materials prepared through physical and physical-chemical combined methods exhibited good histocompatibility. A smal amount of orderly osteoblasts existed around hydroxy apatite biological ceramic materials and physical-chemical prepared materials, with a smal amount of bone. These suggested that there was a tendency for ectopic bone formation. The xenogeneic cancel ous bone materials prepared through physical or physical-chemical combined methods have better cytocompatibility. However, scaffold materials prepared through chemical method have poor cytocompatibility and they are not qualified for the safety standards of biological materials.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value and safety of thoracoscopy routine pleural biopsy combined with frozen biopsy for pleural effusion. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the pathological diagnosis rate of pleural effusion. Results 120 cases in thoracoscopy, 103 cases were confirmed with routine biopsy specimens (85.8%), 16 cases found in the lesions with conventional clamp not satisfactory tissue specimens, combined with frozen cut obtained satisfactory specimens, the diagnostic accuracy rate of 16 cases of cryobiopsy was 100.0%, and the total diagnostic accuracy rate of medical thoracoscopy combined with pleural biopsy and cryobiopsy was 95.0%. There was significant difference between conventional biopsy and cryobiopsy (P < 0.05). Conclusion Medical thoracoscopy combined with pleural biopsy and cryobiopsy can achieve a higher rate of pathological diagnosis, and the complications are mild, so it is worthy of clinical promoting.

Objective To explore the feasibility and efficacy of desensitization protocol for highly sensitized renal transplant patients (HSP). Methods Thirty-five HSPs ( HLA class-Ⅰ panel reactive antibody ＞50 %), including 27 patients with a positive T and/or B cell cytotoxicity crossmatch (XM) and 8 patients with a negative T and B cell XM, received plasmapheresis plus intravenous immunoglobulin (PP-IVIG)treatment. Results The positive XM was rendered negative by PP-IVIG treatment in 25 of 27 (92.6 %)HSPs, and subsequent transplantation was performed. Two patients did not receive renal transplants due to persistent positive XM. In 25 patients receiving renal transplants, no hyperacute rejection occurred. There were 8 cases of acute rejection, including 5 cases of acute humoral rejection (AHR). All rejection episodes were reversed. During a follow-up period of 52 ± 26 months, the serum creatinine levels at 12th and 24th month were 112± 18 and 130 ± 38 mol/L respectively. The 1- and 3-year graft survival rate was 96. 0 %and 80. 0 % respectively. Conclusion The desensitization therapy by PP-IVIG is effective for HSP. High rate of AHR is the major defect of this protocol. The short-term graft survival rate after this protocol is acceptable but the long-term survival rate needs to be defined.

Objective To determine the influencing factors of post-stroke depression by machine learning.Methods Stroke patients' medical records (688 cases eligible) were extracted from record system,including age,gender,pulse manifestation,complexion,tongue quality,fur,Chinese medicine intervention,body mass index (BMI),blood pressure,blood glucose,blood triglyceride,blood total cholesterol,smoking history,drinking history,depression family history,stroke lesion site in imaging,as well as the final depression judgment.Single rule algorithm (1R) was adopted to learn.The risk factors influencing post-stroke patients' depression in extracted information were determined.Then the cases collected were divided into the training dataset (500 cases) and the test dataset (188cases).Optimal discriminant results were obtained by random forest model.Results Single rule algorithm showed that the most important influencing factor of post-stroke depression was stroke lesion site.By computer speculation,stroke lesions in the frontal and temporal lobes were most prone to post-stroke depression.Basal ganglia,brain stem,cerebellum,medulla oblongata and occipital lobe lesions were less likely to cause depression.The accurate classification rate could amount to 88.95％ (612/688 cases).Random forest model determination was made in the former 500cases in the training dataset.The total correct rate of determining depression was 98.2％.The total correct rate of determination in 188 cases of the test dataset was 99.47％.Six hundred and eighty-eight patients' data were learnt by random forest model.The total correct rate was 98.84％.The importance measure results showed that top 3 important indexes of post-stroke depression were lesion site,Chinese medicine intervention and depression family history.Conclusion Patients with lesions in the frontal & temporal lobes and depression family history were most prone to post-stroke depression.

Objective To discuss combined detection of pleural biopsy under medical thoracoscopy and pulmonary serum tumor markers in diagnosis of pleural effusion with unknown reason.Methods 76 patients with pleural effusion caused by unknown reason from January 2014 to March 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Pleural biopsy was conducted under medical thoracoscopy and sent for pathological examination, and 10 ml venous blood was collected from these patients upon admission for testing serum tumor markers (CEA, SCC-AG, ProGRP and CYFRA21-1).Results Among the 76 patients, there were 32 cases with benign lesions (14 with pulmonary tuberculosis, 9 with inlfammatory lesions, 6 with granulomatous inlfammation, 2 with empyema and 1 with hamartoma) and 44 cases with malignant lesions (18 with adenocarcinoma, 13 with squamous carcinoma, 6 with small cell lung cancer, 3 with adeno-squamous carcinoma, 2 with mesothelioma, 1 with large cell carcinoma and 1 with thymoma). The detection of serum tumor markers showed statistically significant differences in the levels of CEA, SCC-AG, ProGRP and CYFRA21-1 in serum between the malignant pleural effusion group and benign pleural effusion group (P = 0.021,P = 0.006,P = 0.003 andP = 0.010). The levels of various serum tumor markers in the malignant pleural effusion group were obviously higher than those in the benign pleural effusion group. According to the pathological results, patients with pleural effusions not caused by lung cancer (2 with mesothelioma and 1 with thymoma) were eliminated from 44 patients with malignant pleural effusions. The rest 41 patients with pleural effusions caused by lung cancer were divided into non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer according to the pathological types. The results showed that there were statistically signiifcant differences in the levels of CEA, ProGRP and CYFRA21-1 between non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer (P = 0.036,P = 0.005 andP = 0.008), while there was no statistically signiifcant difference in the level of SCC-AG (P = 0.811).Conclusions Due to high detection rate and high accuracy in detecting pleural effusions caused by unknown reason, medical thoracoscopy is of great signiifcance, especially for the diagnosis of malignant pleural effusions of pleural metastases. However, serum indicators may provide important reference values for us before the pathological results are available. Thus, it is an important means of diagnosing malignant pleural effusions caused by lung cancer and should be promoted in clinic.

Objective To observe the analgesic and sedative effects of dezocine injection on the medical thoracoscopy check -up.Methods 98 cases of patients with unexplained pleural effusion were randomly divided into sedation group(dezocine group,49 cases)and anesthesia group(local anesthesia by lidocaine,49 cases)by adopting digital expression method.Sedation group was intravenously injected with 5mg dezocine before the operation,and another 5mg dezocine was mixed with 100mL of 0.9% sodium chloride for intravenous drip,with 10mL of 2%lidocaine for local anesthesia during the operation;anesthesia group was only administered with 10mL of 2% lidocaine for local anesthesia.Verbal rating scales(VRS)results and visual analogue scales(VAS)results of the two group patients,as well as their hemodynamics and pleural reaction were recorded.Results The VAS scores of the sedation group and anesthesia group were (4.3 ±2.2)points and (2.1 ±1.9)points,respectively,VRS scores were (3.5 ± 1.1)points and (1.4 ±1.1 )points,there were statistically significant differences(t =0.415,P =0.019 and t =0.293,P =0.006,respectively).The two groups had basically similar operation duration,but the sedation group had more stable hemodynamic indexes such as maximum heart rate,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and pleural reaction,including cough,dizziness,chest tightness,sweating,etc.Conclusion Dezocine injection can be used in medical thoracoscopy check -up and treatment,with significant analgesic effect and less adverse reaction,effectively alleviating the discomfort of thoracoscopy check -up,and improving patients′compliance and comfort,so as to enhance the success rate of thoracoscopy check -up.

Objective To analyse the rate of coincidence to suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) patient between positive exercise treadmill testing (TET) and coronary angiography (CAG) test.Method Two hundred and sixty-eight chest pain patients positive in TET were performed CAG test,coronary stenosis exceed 50% was diagnosed CAD. Results One hundred and seventy-six patients (65.67%) was diagnosed by CAG, 105 male and 71 female in them. Ninety-two (34.33%) patients was negative in CAG test. The false positive rate of TET between post-menopause patients (30.12%, 25/83 ) andmale patients (28.08%, 41/146) was no significant difference(P > 0.05 ); the difference of false positive rate between pro-menopause patients (66.67%, 26/39) and male patients (28.08% ,41/146) was statistical significance (P < 0.01 ). Conclusions The positive rate of CAG can be greatly improved by screening the chest pain patients though TET before CAG, if the positive in TET performed CAG only. TET false positive rate of pro-menopause female is significantly higher than post-menopause female or male.
