Skin flaps from rabbit thighs were raised. The saphenous veins of the flaps were anastomosed with the femoral arteries.The valves in the veins were studied histologically. Fibrous tissue of the venous valve at the site of its junction with the venous wall underwent "fatigue" injury resulting in fracture of the valve.Theraby the valve opened according to the direction of blood flow, and the valvular tissue began to adhere to the venous wall.The results suggested that rapid blood flow with high pressure might remodel the venous valve in an arterialized venous skin flap.

Objective To observe the expression of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),interleukin(IL)-6 and TNF(tumor necrosis factor)-α in patients with acute lung injury(ALI),and to evaluate its value in the evaluation of severity and prognosis of lung injury.Methods A total of 76 patients with ALI treated in this hospital from August 2015 to August 2016 were enrolled in this study and 50 healthy subjects were selected as the control group.The levels of NT-proBNP,IL-6 and TNF-α in the serum of the two groups were compared and their relationship with prognosis were evaluated.Results The levels of NT-proBNP,IL-6 and TNF-α in serum of ALI group were significantly higher than those of healthy control group(P<0.05).The levels of NT-proBNP,IL-6 and TNF-α in the patients with severe lung injury were significantly higher than those in the patients with moderate lung injury(P<0.05);and each index in the patients with moderate lung injury was also significantly higher than those in the patients with mild lung injury(P<0.05).The NT-proBNP,IL-6 and TNF-α levels of the patients with ALI in the death group were significantly different from those in the survival group(P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum NT-proBNP,IL-6 and TNF-α can not only reflect the severity of lung injury,but also have a high predictive value for prognosis.

Aim To investigate the changes of behav-iors,neurotransmitters and depression related gene ex-pressions in hippocampus of C57BL/6 mice after olfac-tory bulbectomy (OB).Methods Forced swimming test (FST),tail suspension test (TST),open filed test (OFT),and elevated plus maze test (EPMT) were used to evaluate the behavioral changes 18 days after surgery. LC-MS/MS method was employed to measure the hippocampal neurotransmitters.Quantita-tive PCR approach was established to determine the hippocampal gene expressions associated with depres-sion.Results OB mice were hyperactive in OFT (P<0.05 ) accompanied with increased time spent in open arm of EPMT (P<0.01).Meanwhile,the sur-gery led to the reduction of the ratio of 5-HIAA/5-HT (P <0.01 ) but the increase of Glu/GABA (P <0.01 ) in hippocampus.Moreover,OB elevated the gene expressions of BDNF,Trkb,GDNF,CD1 1 b and TNF-αbut down-regulated that of TPH2 in hippocam-pus (P<0.05 ).Conclusion Behavioral alternation of OB mice was a result of comprehensive effect of the changes of neurotransmission and depression related genes,which call us special attention in using OB as an animal model for research and development of anti-depressants.

Objective To investigate the effects of endogenous estrogen on blood glucose level,serum insulin level,and plasma total antioxidant capacity in streptozotocin-induced diabetic female mice,and to explore possible protective effects of estrogen on pancreatic islet cells.Methods Female mice were randomly according to body weight divided into four groups:( 1 ) Sham( Sham operation and vehicle administration) ; ( 2 ) Ovx( ovariectomy and vebicle administration ) ; ( 3 ) Sham + STZ ( Sham operation and STZ administration ) ; and ( 4 ) Ovx + STZ ( ovariectomy and STZ administration).The diabetic mice were induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ,50 mg/kg ).Blood glucose levels were measured once a week.Results The blood glucose level and malondialdehyde of Ovx group were higher than that in Sham group,while total anti-oxidant capacity ( T-AOC ) was lower than those in Sham group.the blood glucose level and MDA of Ovx+ STZ group were higher than those in Sham +STZ group,while T-AOC and serum insulin level were lower than those in Sham + STZ group.Conclusions Endogenous estrogen may have some protective effects on pancreatic islet function from streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus in female mice.

Objective:To study the significance of H19 gene in the progress from normal mucosa through oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) to carcinogenesis.Methods:Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR technique was used to detect LncRNA H19 expression level in 12 cases of normal buccal mucosa tissue,33 cases of OSF buccal mucosa tissue and 31 cases of buccal carcinoma with OSF.Results:The relative expression levels of LncRNA H19 in normal buccal mucosa tissues,OSF buccal mucosa tissue and buccal carcinoma with OSF tissue were 1.17 ±0.37,3.44 ± 1.08 and 8.88 ± 1.78 respectively(between each 2 groups,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion:H19 may involve the occurrence and canceration of OSF.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of four-point fixation in patients with posterior chamber intraocular lens dislocation.Methods:A retrospective case series study was adopted.Sixteen patients (16 eyes) with posterior chamber intraocular lens dislocation who underwent suture suspension techniques with four-point fixation in Changzhou No.2 people's Hospital from January 2015 to January 2018 were enrolled.Postoperative effects were observed during follow-up, ranging from 6 to 13 months.The preoperative and 6-month postoperative uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), corneal endothelium cell count and astigmatism were measured and the differences were compared, and the relationships between total astigmatism and corneal astigmatism or intraocular lens induced astigmatism were analyzed, and the postoperative position of intraocular lens and complications were observed.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by an Ethics Committee of Changzhou No.2 People's Hospital (No.2015-C-012-01).Written informed consent was obtained from each patient before surgery.Results:The mean preoperative UCVA (LogMAR) and BCVA (LogMAR) were 1.09±0.24 and 0.48±0.20, respectively, which were significantly improved to 0.30±0.12 and 0.26±0.13 at 6 months after operation, respectively.And the differences were statistically significant ( t=11.782, 3.795; both at P<0.01).The preoperative and 6-month postoperative corneal endothelium cell count were (2 270±360)/mm 2 and (2 032±327)/mm 2, respectively, and the difference was not significant ( t=1.921, P=0.074).The 6-month postoperative mean total astigmatism, corneal astigmatism and intraocular lens induced astigmatism were (-1.47±0.82)D, (-1.34±0.61)D and (-0.22±0.35)D, respectively.There was a highly positive correlation between total astigmatism and corneal astigmatism ( r=0.885, P<0.05), but there was no significant correlation between total astigmatism and intraocular lens induced astigmatism ( r=-0.432, P=0.095).No dislocation, deviation or torsion of intraocular lens were observed during the follow-up.Varying degree of symptoms of iridocyclitis were observed during early stage after operation, which disappeared after treatment.There were two cases of high intraocular pressure, which were normal after treatment.No retinal detachment, choroidal detachment, expulsive suprachoroidal hemorrhage, endophthalmitis, corneal endothelial decompensation or other complications occurred during and after operation. Conclusions:There is a stable position of intraocular lens, good visual acuity and few complications after four-point fixation with suture and suspension, which is a feasible method to treat dislocated intraocular lens.

Objective: To understand the relationships of social exclusion, personality trait and emotion regulation with willingness to seek help after being bullied, and to provide reference for rationalized intervention of campus bullying among middle school students. Methods: A tatal of 2 040 middle school students from a middle school in Jiangxi Province were selected as the research objects, and surveyed by general situation questionnaire, Olweus Bullying Questionnaire, Willingness to Seek Help Scale, social exclusion scale, personality scale and Emotion Regulation Scale. Among them, a further survey of 381 bullies was conducted and SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical processing of data. Results: About 55.88% (133/238) and 58.74% (84/143) reported willingness to seek help after being bullied among middle and high school students, respectively( χ 2=0.30, P >0.05). There were no significant differences in gender and residency( P >0.05). In junior middle school students, compared with the non help willingness group( 3.83± 0.78，3.35±1.03，3.33±1.03，29.81±7.77), the rejected scores of the help willingness group were lower(3.57±0.75), scores of affinity and openness in personality traits were higher(3.69±0.88，3.72±0.79), the cognitive reappraisal scores were higher( 32.42 ±8.25). Among senior middle school students, the rejected and expression suppression scores of the help willingness group were lower(3.51±0.67，26.96±7.47), while extroversion personality traits were higher(3.61±0.95). Multivariate unconditional Log binomial regression analysis showed that high score of expression suppression was associated with less willingness to seek help( OR=0.94, P =0.02). Conclusion Social exclusion, personality trait and emotional regulation may have certain influences on willingness to seek help after being bullied among junior and senior middle school students, effects varies by grade level.

Objective To evaluate the effect of different techniques of hepatic artery reconstruction on postoperative hepatic artery complications and clinical prognosis in liver transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 140 liver transplant recipients were retrospectively analyzed. All recipients were divided into the conventional hepatic artery reconstruction group (n=123) and special hepatic artery reconstruction group (n=17) according to hepatic artery reconstruction methods. Intraoperative and postoperative clinical indexes, the incidence of postoperative hepatic artery complications and survival rate were compared between two groups. Results The alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels at postoperative 1 d, total bilirubin (TB) at postoperative 7 d and prothrombin time international normalized ratio (PT-INR) at postoperative 30 d in special hepatic artery reconstruction group were higher than those in conventional hepatic artery reconstruction group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the operation time, anhepatic phase, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative transfusion volume of red blood cells, cold or warm ischemia time, the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, the length of hospital stay and postoperative blood flow of liver allograft between two groups (all P > 0.05). In the conventional hepatic artery reconstruction group, 5 recipients developed hepatic artery complications, whereas no hepatic artery complications occurred in the special hepatic artery reconstruction group, with no significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05). In the special hepatic artery reconstruction group, the 1-, 3- and 5-year cumulative survival rates were equally 82.4%, compared with 85.0%, 78.9% and 75.6% in the conventional hepatic artery reconstruction group, respectively. There was no significant difference between two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusions When hepatic artery variations and (or) lesions are detected in donors and recipients, use of special hepatic artery reconstruction may effectively restore the hepatic arterial blood flow of liver allograft after liver transplantation, and will not affect the incidence of hepatic artery complications and survival rate of the recipients following liver transplantation.

Objective:To investigate the influence of high frequency oscillatory ventilation combined with ulinastatin on serum inflammatory factors, blood gas indexes and endothelial function in patients with respiratory distress after smoke inhalation lung injury.Methods:Sixty-two patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome induced by smoke inhalation lung injury from January 2016 to January 2019 in the 910th Hospital of the PLA Joint Service Support Unit were enrolled.With a prospective cohort study, the patients were divided into control group (31 cases) and observation group (31 cases) according to the random number table.The control group were treated with high-frequency oscillatory ventilation.The observation group was given intravenous ulinastatin treatment on the basis of the control group, 3×105 U/time, dissolved in 50 ml of normal saline, once every 8 hours.Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ score was performed before intervention and 48 hours after intervention.Serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), nitric oxide, endothelin-1 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Arterial blood oxygen partial pressure (PaO 2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), oxygenation index were measured by blood gas analyzer. The Extra-vascular lung water index (EVLWI), pulmonary vascular permeability index (PVPI) were recorded by pulse indicator continuous cardiac output monitoring.The occurrence of adverse reactions were recorded. Results:The IL-6 ((66.8±15.2) ng/L), IL-8 ((70.3±10.4) ng/L, TNF-α ((24.6±3.5) ng/L) of the observation group after treatment 48 hours were lower than before treatment ((89.3±21.0) ng/L, (288.4±33.5) ng/L, (101.3±9.0) ng/L), the difference was statistically significant(t value was 5.704, 21.215, 30.281, repectively, all P<0.05), and the observation group were significantly lower than the control group((90.4±22.4) ng/L, (162.4±16.6) ng/L, (62.3±4.4) ng/L), the difference was statistically significant(t value was 4.906, 12.324, 19.252, repectively, all P<0.05). After 48 h of intervention in the control group and the observation group after 48 h of intervention, the oxygenation index ((208.5±55.4) mmHg and (315.3±49.8) mmHg), PaO 2 ((101.6±12.4) mmHg and (118.8±10.3) mmHg) of the control group and the observation group after 48 hours of intervention were significantly higher than before intervention((114.8±24.6) mmHg and(112.3±20.5) mmHg, (70.6±10.5) mmHg and(70.3±10.2) mmHg)(t value was 15.663 and 22.387, 11.216 and 16.214, repectively, all P<0.05, the PaCO 2 ((44.7±7.4) mmHg and (39.3±4.8) mmHg), EVLWI ((12.42±3.66) ml/kg and (9.70±2.33) ml/kg), PVPI (2.34±0.48 and 1.82±0.35) significantly lower than before intervention((47.8±5.6) mmHg and(48.3±6.5) mmHg, (16.58±4.05) ml/kg and (16.60±4.10) ml/kg, 2.86±0.55 and 2.90±0.53), ( t value was 3.655 and 7.372, 3.516 and 6.521, 3.571 and 8.024, repectively, all P<0.05), the oxygenation index , PaO 2 in the observation group after intervention were significantly higher than those in the control group, P<0.05, while PaCO 2, EVLWI and PVPI in the observation group were significantly lower than the control group, t value was 7.106, 4.213, 4.037, 7.122, 3.976, repectively, all P<0.05.The nitric oxide((76.65±30.25) μmol/L and (54.15±20.36) μmol/L), endothelin ((58.32±20.26) ng/L and (42.23±21.15) ng/L), APACHE Ⅱ score ((10.05±2.84) points and (7.14±2.74) points) of the control group and the observation group after 48 h intervention were significantly lower than before intervention ((90.30±33.33) μmol/L and(89.62±34.64) μmol/L, (71.64±28.35)ng/L and (70.36±26.56)ng/L, (23.46±4.13)points and(23.60±4.20)points), ( t value was 3.761 and 8.063, 4.031 and 7.376, 6.193 and 11.531, repectively, all P<0.05). The nitric oxide, The endothelin and APACHE Ⅱ scores in observation group after 48 h intervention were significantly lower than those of the control group ( t value was 3.759, 3.515, 3.715, repectively, all P<0.05). There were no adverse drug reactions occurred during the treatment in both groups. Conclusion:High frequency oscillatory ventilation combined with ulinastatin in the treatment of respiratory distress after smoke inhalation lung injury can inhibit the excessive release of inflammatory mediators and improve vascular endothelial function, thereby reducing capillary leakage, reducing EVLWI and increasing oxygenation index.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of robotic surgery and open surgery in the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods:PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang database were searched to compare the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma by robotic surgery and traditional open surgery. Literatures were searched from the establishment of the database to July 2023. Compare operation time, intraoperative blood transfusion rate, R 0 resection rate, lymph node metastasis rate, postoperative complication rate and hospital stays between the two groups. The combined odds ratio ( OR) and mean difference ( MD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated using RevMan 5.4 software. Results:A total of 4 studies were included, including 267 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma. There were 177 males and 90 females, aged (58.8±5.7) years. A total of 267 patients were divided into open surgery group ( n=165) and robotic surgery group ( n=102) according to the surgical formula. The extract results show: operative time ( MD=-103.96, 95% CI: -216.90-8.98, P=0.070) and intraoperative blood transfusion rate ( OR=1.32, 95% CI: 0.43-4.07, P=0.630), R 0 resection rate ( OR=1.41, 95% CI: 0.71-2.81, P=0.330), lymph node metastasis rate ( OR=1.62, 95% CI: 0.46-5.63, P=0.450), postoperative complications ( OR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.28-1.31, P=0.200), and postoperative hospital stay ( MD=2.17, 95% CI: -11.56-15.90, P=0.760). Conclusion:In the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma, robotic surgery is as safe and feasible as open surgery. However, due to the limited number and quality of included studies, the above conclusions need to be verified by more high-quality studies.
