Objective To analysis of risk factors for left atrial thrombosis in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis.Methods From January 2001 to December 2008, 2277 patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis underwent operations in our hospital. There were 737 males and 1540 female, the age ranged from 19 to 84 years [average (50.9 ±10.2) years]. Left atrial thrombosis group (554 cases) and no thrombosis group (1723 cases) were divided, retrospectively collected data were analyzed with univariate and multivariate Logistic regression. Results 12 bvariables, including age, mitral valve orifice area, left atrial diameter, left ventricular diastole diameter, CRP, gender , degree of mitral stenosis, or regurgitation, degree of bicuspid regurgitation, degree of pulmonary hypertension, atrial fibrillation and heart function had statistic difference between two groups. With multivariate Logistic regression for these 12 factors, age, mitral valve orifice area, left atrial diameter, degree of mitral regurgitation and atrial fibrillation were found to be the affecting factors for left atrial thrombosis in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis. Conclusion For patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis, age, mitral valve orifice area, left atrial diameter and atrial fibrillation are the risk factors for left atrial thrombosis. Mitral regurgitation is a protective factor for left atrial thrombosis.

Objective To detect mutations in the PTPN11 gene in a family with LEOPARD syndrome (LS).Methods Clinical data were collected from a 7-year-old boy patient with LS.Peripheral blood was obtained from the patient,both of his parents,and 50 healthy controls.All the exons and their flanking sequences of the PTPN11 gene were amplified by PCR followed by direct DNA sequencing.Results A heterozygous missense mutation c.836A > G,which resulted in a substitution of TAT by TGT at codon 279,was found in exon 7 of the PTPN11 gene in the patient.No mutation was detected in the unaffected parents or healthy controls.Conclusion The missense mutation c.836A > G may be the cause of the phenotype of LS in this family.

Objective To analyze the compatibility of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) with amphiphilic peptide three-dimensional gel.Methods Three healthy 3-week old SD rats were taken for separating femur and tibia to obtain BMSCs,the BMSCs surface antigen was detected by flow cytometry;the 10 mg/mL RGD-cyclic amphiphilic peptide solution was added into the same volume of DMEM/F12 culture medium,after a few seconds,which was self assemble into three-dimensional gel.Three dimensional gel structure was observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM).1 × 106 cells/mL BMSCs suspension and RGDcyclic amphiphilic peptide were mixed to form a 3D culture system,1 × 106 cells/mL BMSCs suspension was mixed with polylysine to form a 2D culture system,the serum-free culture was conducted;the CCK-8 method was used to observe the cell growth situation,calcein acetoxy methyl ester/propidium iodide (PI) double standard staining was performed.The effect of RGD-cyclic amphiphilic peptide on the proliferation of BMSCs was observed by fluorescence microscopy.Results The separated and cultured BMSCs highly expressed CD29 and CD90,but lowly expressed or did not express CD34 and CD45;TEM showed that the gel was composed of multiple empty nanofibers with the nanofiber diameter of 2-5 nm and length of 100-1 000 nm;the molecular weight of synthetic peptides detected by mass spectrometry (MS) was 1 256.37,which was consistent with the theoretical value;the HPLC analysis showed that RGD-amphiphilic peptide purity was 95.88 %;the calcein acetoxyl methyl ester/PI double staining showed that in the 3D culture system,a few BMSCs died after 30 min and the cells began to proliferate after 12 h,the proliferation was more active than that of 2D culture,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);CCK-8 cell count showed that the proliferation activity of 3D culture system was higher than that of 2D culture system,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion RGD amphiphilic peptide has a good biocompatibility with BMSCs,and may become the tissue engineering scaffold material.

The adjacent anatomy of the pelvis is complicated, with digestive, urinary, reproductive and other organs as well as important blood vessels and nerves. Therefore, accurate resection of pelvic tumors and precise reconstruction of defects after resection are extremely difficult. The development of medical 3D printing technology provides new ideas for precise resection and personalized reconstruction of pelvic tumors. The “triune” application of 3D printing personalized lesion model, osteotomy guide plate and reconstruction prosthesis in pelvic tumor limb salvage reconstruction treatment has achieved good clinical results. However, the current lack of normative guidance standards such as preparation and application of 3D printing personalized lesion model, osteotomy guide plate and reconstruction prosthesis restricts its promotion and application. The formulation of this consensus provides normative guidance for 3D printing personalized pelvic tumor limb salvage reconstruction treatment.
