A case of varicella pneumonia, hepatitis and pancreatitis after kidney transplantation was retrospectively analyzed. One week after kidney transplantation, the patient had a papule with pruritus, which was diagnosed as varicella by dermatologist as well as high-throughput sequencing. The patient was found to have pneumonia, hepatitis and pancreatitis. The individualized treatment regimen was used, including the dosage reduction of immunosuppressive agents, the blood drug concentration monitoring, antiviral therapy, anti-infection therapy, supportive treatment, and symptomatic alleviation for complications. The treatment was adjusted according to the indicators'variation. The timely review of the indicators and immunosuppressant blood concentration were performed to protect the transplanted kidney function, and the patient recovered in time. This rare case of postoperative complications of kidney transplantation were summarized and analyzed in order to accumulate clinical experience for the treatment of renal transplantation.

Objective To investigate the case of left-semicolon cancer with intestinal obstruction for the methods of one-stage resection and anastomosis.Methods The clinical data of ten patients with left-semicolon can- cer with intestinal obstruction treated by transanus ilues tube,were restrospectively analyzed from October 2004 to December 2006.Results No postoperative anastormotic leakage was found and the patients were clinically cured. Conclusion The technical problem that left-semicolon cancer with obstruction for one-stage resection and anastomo- sis was resolved by the application of transanus ilues tube.

This study was to build a canine portal hypertension model by intra-portal administration of high polymer material polyurethane and organic solvent tetrahydrofuran mixed solutions in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the model. Twelve local crossbreed dogs were selected randomly, with intra-portal administration of 8% (weight/volume) polyurethane- tetrahydrofuran solutions through an incision in the upper abdomen to build the portal hypertension model. We measured the portal vein pressure before modeling, during modeling, and four-, eight-, and twelve- weeks after modeling, respectively. Then we evaluated the effectiveness of the model comparing values of data with those data obtained before modeling started, which were regarded as the normal values. The results showed that the portal vein pressure rose by 2. 5 times after the solution administrated instantly as much as that before modeling, and maintained at 1. 5 times after 4 weeks. This method presents an easy operation, low animal mortality and reliable model of portal hypertension. Its less abdominal adhesions and its ability in keeping normal anatomic structure specially make it suit for surgical research of portal hypertension.

Objective To explore characteristics of sleep structure and the correlation with cognitive function in cerebral infarction combined with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (CI-OSAHS).Methods The patients with CI-OSAHS and OSAHS in Department of Neurology and Breathing Sleep Monitoring Room of Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from December 2009 till March 2011 were collected All the patients completed polysomography(PSG).Sixty patients were selected and divided into 3 groups based on PSG.These 3 groups were combined group 20 persons (CI-OSAHS),OSAHS group 20persons (OSAHS) and control group 20 persons (without cerebral infarction obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome).All the patients completed image examinations ( CT and MRI ) evaluation of the cognitive function by Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA).Results Sleep structure:the awake time,non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM) 1,NREM 2 and NREM periods in combined group and OSAHS group were significantly longer,the NREM3 + 4 and rapid eye movement(REM) periods were shorter than the control group.The NREM and NREM 1 periods in combined group were longer,the NREM 3 +4 and REM periods were shorter than the OSAHS group.The correlation analysis of cognitive function and breathing disorders and low oxygen related index:there was negative correlation between the total scores of cognitive function (MMSE and MoCA)and apnea hyponea index,oxygen desaturation index (ODI) ( MMSE r =-0.450,-0.671,MoCA r =-0.486,- 0.494,all P ＜0.05) while,was positive correlation between them and noctumal average hypoxemia and minimum hypoxemia ( MMSE r =0.477,0.485,MoCA r =0.507,0.482,all P ＜0.05) in the OSAHS group.There was negative correlation between ODI,arousal index and the total scores of MoCA in the combined group (MoCA r=-0.463,0.480,both P＜0.05),there was correlation between the total scores of MMSE and the other sleep parameters,but,there was no difference in statistics.The correlation analysis of cognitive function and sleep stages:There was positive correlation between the total scores of cognitive function ( MMSE and MoCA) and the NREM 3 + 4 periods ( r =0.521,0.474,both P ＜ 0.05 ) while,there was negative correlation between the total scores of MMSE and the N REM 1 + 2 periods (r =-0.458,P ＜ 0.05 )in the OSAHS group.There was positive correlation between the REM period and the total scores of MoCA (r =0.472,P ＜ 0.05 ).There was correlation between the total scores of MMSE and the sleep structure,but,there was no difference in statistics in combined group.Conclusions Patients with OSAHS have obvious sleep structure disorder.The awake time and light sleep periods are significantly longer than the control group,while,the deep sleep and REM periods are significantly shorter than the control group.The NREM 1 of the patients with CI-OSAHS is longer than the patients with OSAHS.The higher the AHI,the lower the night blood oxygen,the more obvious cognitive dysfunction The longer the awake time,the longer the light sleep,the shorter the deep sleep and REM periods,the more serious cognitive dysfunction.The correlation between the cognitive impairment and low oxygen is more apparent than sleep structure.There is apparent correlation among the total scores of MoCA,the degree of hypoxia and sleep structure in the patients with CI-OSAHS.The total scores of MoCA are more sensitivity than MMSE in mild vascular cognitive impairment.

Objective To investigate the infect capability of recombinant adenovirus mediated PDGF to human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Methods The PDGF cDNA sequence was amplified with RT-PCR and constructed recombinant adenovirus vector AdPDGF. The human umbilical cord derived MSCs were isolated and cultured. In vitro AdPDGF infected MSCs with various MOI,and determine the efficiency using FACS and fluorescence microscope. Trypan blue and MTT assay was used to detect cell viability and proliferation. ELISA was used to quantify PDGF secretion. Results Recombinant adenovirus AdPDGF was successfully and constructed,in which infection efficiency to MSCs was dose dependent. The highest efficiency was around 87.36 % when MOI =50,at which cell viability and proliferation wasn' t impaired. Cell viability of uninfected,AdPDGF infected and control virus infected MSCs was (97.8 ±2.3) %,(91.9±4.0) % and (92.8±4.0) %,separately. The cell proliferation was (100±16.8) %,(95.9±12.0) % and (87.5±9.7) %,separately. There was no statistic significance among AdPDGF infected,control virus infected and uninfected MSCs. 48 hrs post infection,PDGF secretion can be measured from infectious MSCs' supernatant. The secretion level was (1.53±0.37),(3.03±0.68) and (5.25±0.92) ng/ml,separately,when MOI= 10,30,50. No PDGF can be detected from MSC-GFP and control MSC group. Conclusion Recombinant adenovirus AdPDGF was constructed and can infect human umbilical cord derived MSC at high efficiency.
