Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(38):7469-7473
BACKGROUND:Acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) possesses good effects on vascularization and osteogenesis.But whether aFGF can promote the vascularization in animals with early-stage avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) remains unclear.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the vascularization of aFGF composited by partially depreteinized bone (PDPB) in repair of early-stage ANFH.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:A randomized,controlled,animal experiment was performed in the College of Life Science,Nanhua University between January 2008 and January 2009.MATERIALS:Ribs from healthy,adult,New Zealand rabbits were prepared into PDPB by a series of physico-chernical methods including degreasing,deproteinization,partial decalcification and freeze drying,aFGF diluted with sterile distilled water was composited by PDPB particles to prepare artificial composite bone.METHODS:A bone window was made at the juncture of femoral head and femoral neck bilaterally in 24 healthy,adult,New Zealand rabbits.Rabbit models of bilateral ANFH were established by removing approximately 50% of cancellous bone and perfusion with 95% ethanol.Successful bilateral ANFH models were randomly divided into a blank group,a simple PDPB group,and an artificial composite bone group.PDPB and artificial composite bone were implanted into the PDPB and artificial composite bone group accordingly.The blank group did not receive any implantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:At 2,4,and 8 weeks after surgery,ink-injected specimens were prepared for microvessel count and microvessel area analysis.RESULTS:Microvessel number and microvessel area were least in the blank group,followed by simple PDPB group,and lastly the artificial composite bone group.There was significant difference in microvessel number and micrevessel area between artificial composite bone group and blank,simple PDPB groups (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Tissue-engineered artificial bone composited by aFGF and PDPB promotes vasculadzation in repair of earlv-staqe ANFH in rabbits.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated that acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) combined with partially deproteinized bone (PDPB) (aFGF/PDPB) well promotes avascularization in animals with early-stage avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH), but the histological results remain unknown.OBJECTIVE: To observe the histological repairing effects of aFGF/PDPB on early-stage ANFH in rabbits. METHODS: New Zealand rabbits were established models of bilateral ANFH and were randomly divided into a blank group, a simple PDPB group, and an aFGF/PDPB group. PDPB and aFGF/PDPB bone were implanted into the PDPB and aFGF/PDPB group accordingly. The blank group did not receive any implantation. At 2, 4, and 8 weeks after surgery, all animals were sacrificed for histological examination to observe the osteogenesis by hematoxylin-eosin staining.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Defects were filled with granulation tissues and fibrous connective tissues, only a little osteoid tissue formed at the borderline in the blank group at the end of the 8th week. In the PDPB group, a little new bone and cavitas medullaris formed. At 8 weeks, lots of graft was absorbed and cavitas medullaris formed with more osteoplasts and myeloid cells in it. The osteogenesis in the aFGF/PDPB group was better than that of PDPB group in each time point. At 4 weeks, the transplanted cavity was filled with osteoid tissues, a lot of osteogenic precursor cells and osteoblasts could be seen. Plenty of micrangium was observed, and osteoid tissues began to rebuild. At 8 weeks, the graft was replaced by bone tissues, and cavitas medullaris were formed with lots of bone marrow cells in it. At the borderline of the bone trabecula, there were lots of osteoplast and little osteoclasts, which may play a role in bone remodeling. There were mature bone cells in bone lacuna. Results indicate that aFGF/PDPB has better repair effect on rabbit model of ANFH than that of simple PDPB.

Objective:To investigate the contamination status of SARS-CoV-2 in imported frozen seafood from a Russia cargo ship in Qingdao and to analyze the risk factors for infection in local stevedores.Methods:The method of "two-stage, full coverage and mixed sampling" was used to collect the seafood packaging samples for the nucleic acid detection of SARS-CoV-2 by real-time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR. A unified questionnaire was designed to investigate 71 stevedores in two shifts through telephone interview. The stevedores were divided into two groups, with 23 in the shit with two infections was group A and 48 in the shift without infection was group B. Software Epi Info7.2 was used to identify the risk factors for SARS-CoV-2 infections in the stevedores.Results:In the frozen seafood from a Russia cargo ship, the total positive rate of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid in the frozen seafood was 11.53% (106/919). The positive rate of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid in the frozen seafood unloaded by group A (14.29%,70/490) was significantly higher than that in the frozen seafood unloaded by group B (8.39%,36/429)( χ2=7.79, P=0.01) and the viral loads detected in the frozen seafood unloaded by group A were higher than those detected in the frozen seafood unloaded by group B. The scores of personal protection and behaviors in the stevedores in group A were significantly lower than those in group B ( P<0.05), and toilet use, smoking and improper hand washing before meals were the risk factors for the infection. Conclusions:The imported frozen seafood was contaminated by SARS-CoV-2 and the contamination distribution was uneven. Supervision and management of personal occupational protection and behaviors of workers engaged in imported frozen food transportation should be strengthened. It is suggested that a closed-loop monitoring and management system for the whole process of "fishing-transport- loading/unloading" should be established by marine fishery authority.

Objective? To explore the reliability and validity of critical-care pain observation tool (CPOT) in pain assessment in resting state among neurosurgery patients undergoing craniotomy. Methods? From May 2017 to May 2018, we selected 200 neurosurgery patients undergoing craniotomy at Beijing Tiantan Hospital with the method of prospective and observational study. The Chinese version of CPOT was used to pain assessment in resting state of patients and its scores were recorded. At the same time, the Changhai Pain Rating Scale was used to pain assessment by themselves as a gold standard. We drew the receiver operating characteristic (ROC), calculated the area under curve and confirmed the score of CPOT to determine the sensitivity and specificity of pain. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to evaluate the reliability among CPOT reviewers. Results? A total of 200 patients undergoing craniotomy back to intensive care unit (ICU) were included including 100 patients without and 100 patients with trachea cannula. The Chinese version of CPOT had good reliability in patients between two groups with 0.857 (95%CI: 0.787-0.904) for the ICC of patients without trachea cannula and with 0.851 (95%CI: 0.778-0.899) for the ICC of patients with trachea cannula. Among patients without trachea cannula, when the cut-off value of CPOT was equal or greater than 2, CPOT showed the highest Youden index in assessing pain with 58% for the sensitivity and 86% for the specificity. Among patients with trachea cannula, the cut-off value of CPOT being equal or greater than 3 showed the highest Youden index in assessing pain with 74% for the sensitivity and 91% for the specificity. There was no statistical difference in the area under curve of pain assessed by CPOT between patients with and without trachea cannula (0.866 vs. 0.777, P>0.05). Conclusions? CPOT has the good reliability and validity in pain assessment in resting state among neurosurgery patients undergoing craniotomy.

Objective:To investigate the imaging and electrophysiological characteristics, surgical methods and efficacies of preschoolers with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy.Methods:A retrospective data study was conducted on 27 patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy accepted surgical treatment in our hospital from June 2014 to January 2019. By combined with clinical manifestations, preoperative epileptogenic zones were evaluated by imaging data, such as MR imaging, MR spectroscopy and positron emission tomography-CT, and interictal and ictal video-electroencephalogram (VEEG) data. During the surgery, cortical electroencephalography (ECoG) and deep electrode monitoring were used to monitor and locate the abnormal discharge areas to guide the surgical excision of epileptic zone. Engel grading was used to evaluate the efficacy after surgery.Results:All children had typical clinical manifestations of temporal lobe epilepsy; abnormal signal images were found in one side of the temporal lobe and the hippocampus in MR imaging; epileptic discharges were originated from one side frontotemporal region in interictal and ictal VEEG. Obviously persistent or paroxysmal spike waves, spike waves and slow spikes and spike composite waves were intraoperatively discovered by ECoG and depth electrode electroencephalography in the temporal lobe. All patients accepted standard anterior temporal lobectomy+lesion resection+peripheral abnormal discharge resection of the temporal lobe cortex; partial insular lobe was excised and frontal cortex was performed low power thermal coagulation in two patients. Follow-up was performed for 6 months; Engel grading I was reported in 22 patients (81.5%), Engel grading II in 3 patients (11.1%), and Engel grading III in 2 patients (7.4%).Conclusion:Early surgery and moderate extension of resection under intraoperative ECoG and deep electrode monitoring are the key factors to improve the surgical efficacy of preschoolers with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and efficacy of hemorrhage resulted from cortical venous infarction with seizure as the first symptom after craniotomy.Methods:Eleven patients with hemorrhage resulted from cortical venous infarction with seizure as the first symptom after craniotomy admitted to Neurosurgical Center, 988 th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistic Support Force from June 2011 to September 2019 were chosen in our study; primary diseases included meningioma in 7 patients, contusion and laceration of frontal lobe in 2, hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in 1, and obsessive-compulsive disorder in 1 patient. Epilepsy was the first symptom after craniotomy. Clinical characteristics and efficacy of these patients were analyzed retrospectively; seizure control efficacy was evaluated by Engel grading. Results:First seizure occurred 4 h-7 d after craniotomy in these 11 patients, including 2 with focal sensory retention seizure, 3 with focal bilateral tonic-clonic seizure, and 6 with general tonic-clonic seizure. Follow-up cranial CT revealed hematoma in surgical region, adjacent cortex or subcortex in 9 patients (hematoma volume: 15-50 mL); emergency craniotomy (hematoma clearance) and decompressive craniectomy was performed in 5 patients; only emergency craniotomy (hematoma clearance) was performed in 3 patients; conservative treatment was performed in 1 patient. A small amount of diffuse bleeding with severe cerebral edema in the surgical region appeared in 2 patients, and the transient limb paralysis gradually recovered after 2 months of conservative treatment. Follow-up was performed for (4.5±1.7) years ([2.3-7.0] years). During the last follow-up, 4 patients were normal, 5 patients had mild to moderate hemiplegia, 1 had mild decreased vision in the right eye, and 1 had long-term coma. Epileptic control efficacy analysis indicated that 8 had Engel grading I and 3 grading II.Conclusion:Complete removal of hematoma and inactivated brain tissues can effectively control seizures and rebleeding in patients with hemorrhage resulted from cortical venous infarction.
