In order to study the influence of high temperature and high humidity on the vital signs after craniocerebral missile wound(CMW), CMW was produced in 32 cats according to the method of Carey. Then they were placed in a cabin with respective environmental temperature and humidity of 25℃ and 50%,35℃ and 85%,38℃ and 90% or 40℃ and 95%(as group A, B, C, D).The vital signs and mortality rate were recorded. There were little changes in group A, a slow elevation in group B, but obvious changes in groups C and D. There was no death in groups A and B in 8 hours. All cats in group C died in 5 hours, and also in 2 5 hours in group D. The results suggested that an environment of high temperature and high humidity was detrimental to survival of cats inflicted with CMW, and measures should be taken to alleviate these detimental effects in the treatment of CMW.

Mediastinal tissue is a very common predilection site for both benign and malignant diseases .It is not only lo-cated at many different origins within human body but the anatomical structure of mediastinal tissue is often very complicated . In addition to its location and structure , mediastinal tissue lacks a cavity channel , which communicates with outside environ-ment.The combination of all these factors cause extreme difficulty in terms of diagnosis .Because of the distinct treatments for different diagnosis results, the efficiency of treatment largely relies on the completion of diagnosis in a timely fashion , any delay often cause severe results.

BACKGROUND: The full three-dimensional finite element model can not only establish a realistic three-dimensionalmodel, but also can simulate the osteotomy on the model. Analysis of biomechanics guides the clinical operation.OBJECTIVE: To establish a three-dimensional finite element model of ankylosing spondylitis kyphosis and provide an effective digital platform for further studies.METHODS: A 30-year-old male patient with ankylosing spondylitis kyphosis participated voluntarily in the current study. CTimages obtained from CT transverse scanning from C1 to the sacrococcyx were imported into Mimics 17.0 software toestablish a three-dimensional geometric model of the posterior spine. The geometric model was then imported into Studio Geomagic 2013 software. For the subsequent optimization of image processing, the posterior spine convex geometry wasestablished on the three-dimensional geometric model. We used Unigraphics NX 8.5 to establish the spinal kyphosis surfacemodel, then added modeling of calcification of the ligaments, partial resection of useless sacral bone, and finally, imported themodel into ANSYS 15.0 finite element analysis software, then added the ligaments and set the parameters of the material,generating a complete three-dimensional finite element model of ankylosing spondylitis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A three-dimensional finite element model of complete ankylosing spondylitis wassuccessfully established. Using the ten-node approach, we generated 398370 tetrahedral elements, and 668538 nodes.This will provide a reliable digital platform for the next step of biomechanical analysis.

BACKGROUND:It is reported that the cellsurface antigen may be damaged by the trypsin enzyme in some extent and the cellactivity may also be influenced, as a result of which, the subsequent separation and fol ow-up-test wil be affected. Accutase enzymes possess the activities of protease and col agen enzyme and need no special termination or cleaning at the end of digestion. Another special function of accutase enzyme is to protect cellsurface antigen and thus it has been widely applied in the stem celldigestion and culture.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the digestive effect of accutase enzymes and trypsin enzyme in the separation and original culture of spermatogonial stem cells.
METHODS:The testes of 5-7 days male Kunming mice (n=45) were col ected and primarily digested with col agenas. The suspension of digested tissue was divided into three parts with the same volume named accutases enzyme group, trypsin enzyme group and mixed enzyme group (trypsin enzyme and hyaluronidase). For the comparison of testis digestive status and the time required for the formation of single cells, the micrographs were taken at 1, 3 and 5 minutes respectively after enzyme digestion. The total number and the mortality of the single cells were estimated and compared. The leydig cells and sertoli cells were removed by differential adherent method and the remained spermatogenic cells were then treated with CD90.2 immune magnetic beads. The selected spermatogonial stem cells were subsequently labeled by glial cellline-derived neurotrophic factor receptor alpha-1 and sorted with flow cytometry. The number of spermatogonial stem cells positive for glial cellline-derived neurotrophic factor receptor alpha-1 in CD90.2+and CD90.2-cells was compared within different groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The digestive capacities of different enzyme were different. Accutases enzyme obtained the single cellsuspension more quickly than trypsin enzyme and mixed enzyme, and had the least cellmasses and broken cellmembrane than the other two groups. After the differential attached treatment, the highest total number of CD90+spermatogonial stem cells and lowest cellmortality could be found in the accutases group, when compared with the other groups. The results of cellsorting by flow cytometry showed a higher rate (72.24%) of GFRα1+/CD90+cells in the accutases group than the trypsin group (51.16%) and mixed enzyme group (71.27%). The GFRα1+/CD90-number in the accutases group was lower (15.03%) than that of the trypsin group (18.8%) and mixed enzyme group (24.23%), respectively. The results indicate a better effect of accutases enzyme on the primary separation of spermatogonial stem cells than that of trypsin or mixed enzyme.

Objective:To study the wound healing effects of the extracts of Shengji Huayu Fang with different solvents and demon-strate their important role in wound healing for deep second degree burn wound. Methods:Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly di-vidied into six groups(ten rats in each group): the control group (saline), the positive control group (asiaticoside group), Shengji Huayu Fang group respectively with petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-butanol as the extraction solvent. The extracts of Shengji Huayu Fang with different solvents were applied in the rats with deep second degree burn wound, and the wound healing was e-valuated by the healing rate judged by naked eyes and computer image analysis, DNA cell cycle analysis using a flow cytometry, patho-logical reports and the degree of re-epithelialization studied by the other methods. Results:The mean healing time of the chloroform ex-tracts group [(15. 67 ± 1. 12)d] was much shorter than that of the control group [(22. 87 ± 1. 01)d, P<0. 01]. The hydroxyproline content and the percentage of S-phase cells in wound tissue in the chloroform extracts group was obviously higher than those in the con-trol group (P<0. 01). Conclusion:The present study indicates that topical application of chloroform extracts of Shengji Huayu Fang is beneficial to burn wound healing, and the chloroform extracts of Shengji Huayu Fang is the main bioactive fraction.

Objective:To screen the plasma microRNAs( miRNAs) of differential expression in a high fat diet-induced insulin resistance in mouse models;further investigations on the mice with insulin resistance treated by TLR4 inhibitors TAK-242,and to study the changes of plasma miRNAs expression profile and the relationship among TLR4, miRNAs and high fat diet-induced insulin resistance. Methods:The plasma samples were from 3 mouse groups of previous study,namely,the control group with general basic diet ( low fat diet,LFD) ,TLR4 inhibitors TAK-242 treatment group with a high fat diet ( HFD-T) and the high fat diet control group( HFD-C) . The differential expressed miRNAs was screened by expression profiling of plasma miRNAs, which was detected using mouse miRNA microarray. The quantitative Real-Time PCR ( qRT-PCR ) was used to verify the results of microarray. The target genes of differential expressed miRNAs were predicted in TLR4 signaling pathway using bioinformatics methods,and the GO and KEGG database molecular annotation system were used to investigate the main effects of the miRNAs targeted genes on the biological functions or signal pathway. Results:The screening results of miRNA microarray chip showed that,comparing miRNAs expression between HFD group and LFD control group,185 miRNAs were significant in the high fat diet group,including 6 up-regulated and 179 down-regulated miRANs. A significant difference of miRANs was also found between HFD-T group and LFD control group,the total number of differential expression miRNAs was 171,and all of them were down-regulated. Comparing miRNAs expression between HFD-C group and HFD-T group,13
miRNAs were significant in HFD-T group,all of them were down-regulated. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that a total of 10 in-teraction proteins with TLR4 were predicted;the difference of mmu-miR-3095-3p,mmu-miR-5113,mmu-miR-709 and mmu-miR-335-3p expression levels was more than 1 000 times between HFD-C group and HFD-T group,and their target genes can be found in TLR4-in-teraction protein or Toll like receptor signaling pathway;GO and KEGG analysis showed 74% of these target genes belonged to the biological processes genes, and the transcription factors accounted for 82%. The expression of mmu-miR-3095-3p, mmu-miR-5113, mmu-miR-709 and mmu-miR-335-3p detected by qRT-PCR exhibited the similar patterns of down regulation to those shown in microarray results. Conclusion:When insulin resistance occurs,there is a change in plasma miRNAs expression profile,this change is associated with TLR4 and its signaling pathways. The finding enrichs the possible mechanisms of insulin resistance and provides a basis for finding miRNAs diagnostic markers for early diagnosis of insulin resistance.

Objective The major barrier to transumbilical endoscopic surgery is from external interference between the instruments handles around the umbilicus. We describe the technique of totally transumbilical endoscopic cholecystectomy by using improved instruments. Methods 54 cases of transumbilical laparoscopic cholecystectomy were performed with improved instruments in patients with gallbladder polyps (13 cases) and gallstones (41 cases). The new trocars without the proximal seal system on the sleeves were designed for this procedure. The instruments used in this study were 5 cm longer than commercially available ones. Results All the gallbladders were removed successfully without severe intraoperative bleeding during and postoperative complications. Mean operating time was 25-56 min (average 34±28 min). All the patients were satisfied with the abdominal cosmetic results, discharged 48 h after the operations, and returned to work within seven postoperative days.Conclusions The external interference between trocars and instruments can be partially avoided by using the improved instruments. Totally transumbilical laparoscopic cholecystectomy becomes feasible by this technique.
