Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder for perimembranous ventricular septal defect with pseudoaneurysm. Methods During the period from March 2008 to March 2013 at Shanghai Yodak Cardiothoracic Hospital , interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder was carried out in a total of 96 patients with perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) complicated by pseudoaneurysm. The patient’s age varied from 2 years to 36 years. Before the procedure, routine left ventricular angiography and ascending aortic angiography were carried out. Left ventricular angiography and ascending aortic angiography as well as the transthoracic ultrasonography were performed immediately after the procedure to observe the therapeutic results. Follow-up checkups with transthoracic ultrasonography, EKG and chest X-ray film were conducted at one week as well as at one, 3, 6 and 9 months after the surgery were conducted. Results Successful occlusion of VSD was obtained in 93 patients, with a success rate of 96.8% (93/96). After the surgery, small amount of shunt flow was detected in 8 patients, which disappeared within 48 hours in 7 patients, and in the other one the shunt flow disappeared one month later which was confirmed by follow-up examination. After the treatment, complete right bundle branch block occurred in 4 patients, complete left bundle branch block in 5 patients, and transientⅢdegree atrioventricular block in one patient. The conduction block disappeared at the time of discharge in all patients. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) decreased from preoperative (47.5 ± 5.2) mm to postoperative (45.2 ± 5.1) mm, the difference was statistically significant (t = 18.33, P < 0.01). During the follow-up period lasting for 9 months, no delayed cardiac arrhythmia, valve damage or sudden death occurred. Conclusion For the treatment of perimembranous ventricular septal defect with pseudoaneurysm, interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder is safe and effective with excellent mid-term effect. Based on the imaging findings, including the location, shape, ruptured orifice, number of the perimembranous pseudoaneurysm as well as the distance between the pseudoaneurysm and the aortic valve, to select suitable occluder and proper occlusion site is the key to ensure a successful surgery.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the susceptible factors and resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii in ICU,in order to create a novel thought of effective prevention and control of A. baumannii cross-infection. METHODS Specimens were collected from ICU patients with infections from Sep 2006 to Sep 2008. The infection characteristic was analyzed and the drug sensitivity was tested to know the risk factors of infection retrospectively.

They were 65.09% and 72.64%,respectively. CONCLUSIONS It has great significance in the prevention and control of A. baumannii cross-infection in ICU to strengthen the environment disinfection,were education of nosocomial infection knowledge among medical staff,executeing the hand-washing system strictly,useing the antibiotics rationally,keeping the susceptible crowd and adopting de-escalation strategy of prevention and control.

The treatment of large-segment bone defects is a severe trouble. The emergence of bone tissue engineering, a current research hotspot, has brought promising treatment strategies to this field. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), as a kind of seeding cells for bone tissue engineering, have multipotentials, including easy isolation and culture, abundant sources and easy to expand. BMSCs can be differentiated into osteoblasts by a variety of methods to achieve the purpose of bone repairing. Currently, the components to induce osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs include cellular factors, hormones, biological materials, traditional Chinese medicine, physical stimulation and non-coding RNA. Osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs is a very complex process, which is controled by kinds of signaling pathways to maintain a balanced in bone metabolism, mainly including BMPs/Smad signaling pathway, transforming growth factor-β signaling pathway, Wnt signaling pathway, etc. The development of active factors and scaffold which can induce osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs is the basis for the development of bone tissue engineering. Further exploration of signaling pathways could reveal some specific molecular mechanisms and find new therapeutic targets in regeneration medicine. However, some issues, such as osteoblasts differentiation of BMSCs, mutual interference of signal pathways, clinical transformation and clinical application, are still needed to be resolved.

Objective To explore the feasibility of using contralateral breast as the donor for immediately breast reconstruction or chest wall defect repair after mastectomy in breast cancer patients. Methods From Jul. 2013 to Mar. 2016, contralateral breast fat flap was used as the donor for 8 breast cancer patients with immediate autologous non-microsurgical breast reconstruction or chest wall defect repair after mastectomy. All participants in this study received preoperative oncological screening with ultrasound, mammography, and magnetic resonance imaging which revealed the absence of pathological abnormalities in the donor breast. Results Among the 8 pa-tients, 4 patients underwent immediate breast reconstruction and 4 received chest wall defect repair. Only 1 pa-tient undergoing breast reconstruction had minor complications with little or no effect on the final outcome. No patient undergoing chest wall defect repair had postoperative complications. The functional and aesthetic out-comes were very satisfactory. Regular follow-ups were from 3 to 34 months with no recurrence found up to the present. Conclusions This article presents the first case for immediately breast reconstruction or chest wall de-fect repair using contralateral breast as the donor. The surgical method has some complications but with good aesthetic outcomes, which can be an option for breast cancer patients with hypertrophic and ptotic breast.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the change in antibiotic resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PAE) in our hospital,for the guidance of rational use of antibacterials. METHODS We reviewed the isolation rates of antimicrobial agents from 2004 to 2007,and its construction ratio among the commonly encountered Gram-negative bacilli,and the resistance rates of P.aeruginosa to 14 kinds. RESULTS We totally isolated 823 strains of PAE and the isolation rates of PAE was 13.3% in 2004 but 18.5% in 2007.In the four years,there was the highest isolation rate of 72.54% in sputum and throat mucus specimens.The lowest resistance rate was to amikacin(from 12.2% to 6.21%,the average was 8.75%),and the next was to cefoperazone/sulbactam(from 6.10% to 12.26%,the average was 8.99%);the total resistance rates to ticarcillin and piperacillin was more than 36.00% and there was a lower resistance rate to ticarcillin/clavulanic acid(32.93%)after adding the enzyme inhibitor,while to piperacillin/tazobactam was 20.16%.Drug-resistance rate to ceftazidime was from 19.51% to 43.17%(the average was 33.05%);to cefepime from 22.34% to 34.16%(the average was 29.40%);to imipenem from 19.51% to 23.29%(the average was 22.60%);to meropenem from 11.17% to 18.18%(the average was 15.43%);to the fluoroquinolones antibiotics ciprofloxacin from 32.61% to 44.59%(the average was 38.52%);and to levofloxacin was 26.40% in average. CONCLUSIONS There is commonly increasing resistance of PAE.Reviewing the resistance situation dynamically and selecting the antibiotics reasonably can produce great significance for clinical therapy and postpon its multidrug-resistance.

BACKGROUND:Lateral retinacular release is effective to treat anterior knee pain, but it has not been confirmed through the parameters of the knee joint. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relevant parameters on the axial X-ray films of the patela before and after lateral retinacular release and then to find out the efficient parameters for patelofemoral joint disorders on the axial X-ray film of the patela, which are of most clinical significance. METHODS: Fifty patients with anterior knee pain were included randomly who admitted at the Department of Joint Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from February 2009 to December 2013, including 45 cases of Outerbridge I-III undergoing arthroscopic lateral retinacular release+articular cartilage repair and 5 cases of Outerbridge IV undergoing lateral retinacular release+knee joint surface replacement. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After lateral retinacular release, the congruence angle, patelofemoral index and tilt angle were al reduced significantly (P < 0.05 orP < 0.01), but there was no change in the lateral patelofemoral angle (P > 0.05). The patelar trajectory restored to the corresponding central position of the femoral condyle, and meanwhile, no joint hematoma, deep vein thrombosis and patelar subluxation occurred. These findings indicate that the lateral retinacular release is of great significance for treatment of anterior knee pain induced by lateral patelofemoral compression.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effect of hemoperfusion on tetramine poisoned patients.

METHODSThree tretramine poisoned cases treated with hemoperfusion were selected. The samples during and after hemoperfusion were collected and analyzed by gas chromatography.

RESULTSTetramine concentration at the inlet of the artificial kidney kept the same level during hemoperfusion. After hemoperfusion, the tetramine concentration in patient plasma changed little in 72 hours. 1.03-1.55 mg of tetramine was adsorbed by the instrument of hemoperfusion after two hours' hemoperfusion.

CONCLUSIONAlthough hemoperfusion was not so effective to reduce blood tetramine concentration in patients, it could clear about 1 mg tetramine for one time.

Objective:To analyze the difference in immune microenvironment between primary tumor tissues and metastatic tumor tissues of metastatic colorectal cancer, and to screen specific immune-related differentially expressed genes (DEG) related to prognosis of metastatic colorectal cancer via bioinformatics methods.Methods:The GSE131418 microarray dataset of colorectal cancer and metastases was downloaded from gene expression omnibus (GEO) database, including 517 samples from the MCC cohort and 618 samples from the Consortium cohort in Moffitt Cancer Center. Immune-related gene sets were downloaded from immunology database and analysis portal IMMPORT, including 2 483 immune-related genes. A total of 695 cases of RNA sequencing data and 627 cases of clinical information of colorectal cancer tumors and adjacent tissues were downloaded from Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data. The stroma cell score, immune cell score and stromal immune total score of metastatic tumor tissues and primary tumor tissues were calculated by using ESTIMATE algorithm, and 22 kinds of immune cell infiltration in primary tumor and metastatic tumor tissues of colorectal cancer were compared and analyzed by using CIBERSORT deconvolution algorithm. Immune-related DEG were screened to make Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Gnomes (KEGG) signaling pathway enrichment analysis. The patients were divided into high and low expression groups according to the median expression levels of immune-related DEG. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression risk model were used to analyze immune-related DEG, and the genes significantly related to prognosis in the results of the two methods were screened (all P < 0.01), and multivariate analysis was performed by using Cox regression method. The expression differences of each gene in tumor tissues, adjacent tissues, primary tumor tissues and metastatic tissues in GSE131418 data sets of TCGA database and GEO database were compared, and survival analysis was also performed. Results:The stroma cell score, immune cell score and stromal immune total score of colorectal cancer metastatic tissues were lower than those of primary tumor tissues (all P < 0.001). Compared with primary tumor tissues, the proportion of activated natural killer (NK) cells, monocytes, CD8 + T cells, T cells, activated dendritic cells in metastatic colorectal cancer tissues was increased, while the proportion of inactive mast cells, inactive dendritic cells, inactive NK cells, activated memory CD4 + T cells, M1 macrophages, and neutrophils was decreased. There were 289 immune-related DEG in metastatic tissues and primary tumor tissues of metastatic colorectal cancer, including 101 up-regulated genes and 188 down-regulated genes. KEGG signaling pathway enrichment analysis showed that in the immune microenvironment of metastatic tissues in metastatic colorectal cancer, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway, programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression and programmed death 1 (PD-1) checkpoint pathway, T helper cell (Th) 1, Th2 and Th17 cell differentiation, NF-kappa B signaling pathway, interleukin 17 (IL-17) signaling pathway, chemokine signaling pathway, T cell receptor signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, and NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity pathways enrichment were detected. Immune-related DEG related to prognosis including ANGPTL5, FPR1, HSPA8, NR2E3, PSMD2, PSMD8 and SBDS were screened out. Cox regression multivariate analysis showed that immune-related DEG ANGPTL5 ( HR = 2.69, 95% CI 1.22-5.92, P < 0.05), HSPA8 ( HR = 0.57, 95% CI 0.33-0.97, P < 0.05), and SBDS ( HR = 2.23, 95% CI 1.18-4.21, P < 0.05) were independent prognostic factors for metastatic colorectal cancer. The expression of ANGPTL5 in tumor tissues was lower than that in normal tissues, and the expression of ANGPTL5 in metastatic tissues was higher than that in primary tumor tissues. Patients with high expression of ANGPTL5 in tumor tissues had worse prognosis. The expression of HSPA8 in tumor tissues was higher than that in normal tissues, and the expression of HSPA8 in metastatic tissues was lower than that in primary tumor tissues. Patients with high expression of HSPA8 in tumor tissues had a better prognosis. The expression of SBDS in tumor tissues was lower than that in normal tissues, and the expression of SBDS in metastatic tissues was lower than that in primary tumor tissues. Patients with high expression of SBDS in tumor tissues had worse prognosis. Conclusions:Immune microenvironment of metastatic colorectal cancer is quite different from that of primary tumor. The degree of immune cell infiltration is reduced and the whole is immunosuppressed. The specific immune-related DEG related to prognosis of metastatic colorectal cancer may be new therapeutic targets of metastatic colorectal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effects of tantalum coating on adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in vitro. Methods:In this study, BMSCs were extracted from 6 6-week-old rats and cultured in vitro to the third generation. Tantalum coating was manufactured on Ti6Al4V by chemical vapor deposition. The cells were identified by flow cytometry before they were induced with different mediums for osteogenesis, chondrogenesis and adipogenesis. The adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs were detected with fluorescence staining, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) assay and Q-PCR, respectively. Recorded and compared were the adhesion rate, proliferation rate, and expression of osterix (OSX), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), osteonectin (OSN) and osteopontin (OPN) of BMSCs on the surface of titanium alloy round plates (the Ti6Al4V group) and of tantalum coating round plates (the Ta group). Results:The flow cytometry revealed CD44 (94.55%), CD90 (95.01%) and CD34 (0.06%). Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining was positive after osteogenic induction for 14 days; Alizarin red staining showed calcified nodules after osteogenic induction for 21 days; oil red O staining was positive after adipogenic induction for 21 days; alcian blue staining found chondrogenic ability after chondrogenic induction for 21 days. Laser confocal microscopy showed that the BMSCs grew in patches aggregated and closely linked on the surface of titanium alloy round plates (in the Ti6Al4V group) and of tantalum coating round plates (in the Ta group). More BMSCs adhered on the tantalum coating plates than on the titanium alloy plates and exhibited better ductility. The proliferation rates of BMSCs on tantalum coating were significantly faster than those on titanium alloy after 1, 3, 5 and 7 days of co-culture in vitro ( P<0.05).Q-PCR showed that tantalum coating promoted the expression of OSN and OPN after 7 days of culture significantly higher than titanium alloy did ( P<0.05).After 21 days of co-culture in vitro, tantalum coating enhanced the expression of OSX, RUNX2, OSN and OPN significantly higher than titanium alloy did ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared to titanium alloy which is used for conventional orthopedic implants, tantalum coating can observably promote adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.

Objective:To observe the effect of edaravone dexborneol on anxiety and depression after stroke in rats, and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods:Totally 120 healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (sham), ischemia-reperfusion group (MCAO), edaravone group (Eda) and edaravone dexborneol group (ED) with 30 in each group.The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was established by thread occlusion.Rats in ED group and Eda group were intraperitoneally injected with edaravone(8 mg·kg -1·d -1) and edaravone dexborneol(edaravone: 8 mg·kg -1·d -1, dexborneol: 2 mg·kg -1·d -1) respectively.And rats in the other two groups were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of normal saline.Some rats were killed after continuous administration for 3 days to detect molecular indexes, and the remaining rats were tested for behavior after continuous administration for 14 days.The levels of neclear factor κB(NF-κB)、phosphorylated NF-κB(p-NF-κB)、tumor necrosis α(TNF-α)、interleukin 1β(IL-1β) were detected by Western blot.The mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, cluster of differentiation 86(CD86), cluster of differentiation 206(CD206), inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) were detected by RT-qPCR.M1 type microglia labeled with CD68, microglia labeled with ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1(Iba1) and neurons labeled with microtubule-associated protein 2(MAP2) were detected by immunofluorescence staining.The cerebral infarction volume was measured by TTC staining.Depression and anxiety behavior after stroke in rats was observed by the open field test and elevated plus maze test.SPSS 17.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the data.One-way ANOVA was used for multiple group comparison, and LSD-t test was used for pairwise comparison. Results:(1) The behavioral results showed that 14 days after ischemia-reperfusion, the number of entering into the open arm, the time spent in the open arm, and the time spent in the central area of the open field in the MCAO group were lower than those in the sham group ( t=20.77, 6.02, 14.63, all P<0.05). The number of entering into the open arm, the time spent in the open arm, and the time spent in the central area of the field in the ED group ( (16.22±0.49) times, (69.11±17.08) s, (3.80±0.37) s) were higher than those in the MCAO group ( (8.14±0.60) times, (41.18±9.81) s, (0.33±0.39) s) ( t=4.69, 0.38, 2.27, all P<0.05) and Eda group ( (11.11±0.26) times, (45.26±17.16) s, (1.14±0.19) s) ( t=8.63, 2.50, 7.86, all P<0.05). (2) Western blot results showed that 3 days after ischemia-reperfusion, p-NF-κB/NF-κB, TNF-α, and IL-1β levels in the MCAO group were higher than those in the sham group ( t=15.35, 12.35, 7.23, all P<0.05). The levels of p-NF-κB/NF-κB (0.49±0.02), TNF-α (0.73±0.03), IL-1β (0.61±0.01) of ischemic penumbra cortex in ED group were significantly lower than those of the MCAO group ( (1.14±0.05), (1.13±0.07), (1.34±0.14)) ( t=14.58, 7.86, 5.65, all P<0.05) and Eda group ( (0.93±0.03), (0.89±0.02), (1.04±0.36) ) ( t=9.82, 3.07, 3.30, all P<0.05). (3) RT-qPCR results showed that the level of TNF-α mRNA (1.98±0.18), IL-1β mRNA (2.00±0.35), CD86 mRNA (1.56±0.20) and iNOS mRNA (2.01±0.12) in the peri-infarct cortex of ED group were lower than those in the MCAO group ( (5.12±0.24), ( 8.15±0.22), (6.03±0.13), (7.20±0.09) ) ( t=7.86, 16.88, 16.55, 37.25, all P<0.05) and Eda group ( (2.85±0.07), (5.43±0.26), (2.67±0.27), (3.58±0.11) ) ( t=3.71, 9.41, 4.13, 11.30, all P<0.05). The level of CD206 mRNA in the peri-infarct cortex of the ED group (3.98±0.25) was higher than that in the MCAO group (2.00±0.11) ( t=7.08, P<0.05) and Eda group (3.17±0.09) ( t=3.25, P<0.05). (4) The results of immunofluorescence staining showed that the ratio of polarized M1 microglia in the peri-infarct cortex and striatum in the ED group ((20.36±9.23)%, (18.26±5.98)%)were lower than those in the MCAO group ( (83.69±12.79)%, (61.25±33.26)%) ( t=5.23, 3.02, both P<0.05) and Eda group((42.16±13.13)%, (40.23±14.22)%)( t=3.12, 2.08, both P<0.05). In addition, the number of neurons marked with MAP2 of peri-infarct cortex in the MCAO group was lower than that in the sham group( t=8.02, P<0.05), and the number of neurons marded with MAP2 of peri-infarct cortex in the ED group ((53.07±17.90) /scope) was higher than that in the MCAO group ( (26.27±9.95) /scope) ( t=6.89, P<0.05) and Eda group ( (38.69±12.03)/scope) ( t=5.26, P<0.05). (5) The results of TTC staining showed that the cerebral infarction volume in ED group ( (10.31±1.03)%) was lower than that in the MCAO group ( (34.71±1.74)%) ( t=15.31, P<0.05) and Eda group ( (26.05±1.00)%) ( t=9.88, P<0.05). Conclusion:Edaravone dexborneol can alleviate anxiety and depression in rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion, which may be related to the inhibition of M1 microglial polarization, the down-regulation of NF-κB signaling pathway and the enhancement of neuronal structural stability.
