Objective To analyze the effect of intravenous dripping of 3% sodium chloride solution on prevention of diluted hyponatremia during transurethral vaporization of the prostate (TUVP). Methods Eighty-five cases with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) accompanied with typical lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) were divided into two groups during undergoing TUVP operation: the control group(n=38) given Ringer's solution dripping (3ml/min) and the concentrated sodium chloride injection group(n= 47) given 3% sodium chloride solution dripping (2~4ml/min). All of the operations were taken via Wolf electric resection system, and the operation time was≥60 min. The complete blood count and serum electrolyte were determined before operation and 60 minutes after operation beginning, and the data were compared between the two groups. Results The decrease amplitude of serum sodium was obviously smaller in concentrated sodium chloride injection group[(1.45±5.14)mmol/L] than that in the control group[(7.79±6.64) mmol/L] 60 minutes after operation beginning (P<0.05). Conclusions Giving 3% sodium chloride solution by intravenous drip during TUVP may reduce the severity of diluted hyponatremia and postpone the occurrence of hyponatremia, and thereby decrease the risk of transurethral resection syndrome.

BACKGROUND:At present, there is still lack of related reports about the aging process of in vitro cultured epidermal cells, since epidermal cells are seed cells necessary for the construction of tissue engineered skin, this articleis is aimed to investigate the biological property of normal human epidermal cells during aging process so as to provide a foundation for the selection of seed cells for tissue engineered skin OBJECTIVE: To observe the in vitro proliferation and aging property of human epidermal cells in order to provide a foundation for the proper selection of seed cells for tissue engineered skin.DESIGN: A self-comparative experiment.SETTING: Orthopedic Surgery Research Instioute of Weifang Medical College and the General Surgery Department of Weifang Medical College Affiliated Hospital.MATERIALS: This experiment was carried out at the Orthopedic Surgery Research Institute of Weifang Medical College, between September 2000and September 2002. Healthy foreskin tissue was obtained from 20 normal boys of 6-8 years old who received peritomy at the General Surgery Department of Weifang Medical College Affiliated Hospital.METHODS: Epidermal cells were obtained from normal young people for subculture. Cells were collected from different culture passages and taken as subjects, and their aging characteristics were assessed through morphological observation, population doubling time (PDT), immune cytochemistry and beta-galactosidase staining. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The changes of the epidermal cell growth characteristics. ② The morphological changes of the epidermal cells. ③ The epidermal cell phenotypic changes. RESULTS: ① The clanges of the epidermal cell growth characteristics: Cells were in vitro cultured by monolayer for 9 passages, and PDT of P2 was the shortest. The cells showed strong proliferation in the first 5 passages.From P6, PDT was obviously prolonged, but the cells from P8 did not proliferate any longer. ② The morphological changes of epidermal cells: The primary cultured cells began to proliferate 3 days later, which accelerated 4 days later. The cells became approximately fused in about 1 week. The growth of epidermal cells was identified with a microscope and the immuno histological techniques. ③ The epidermal cell phenotypic changes: Along with the consecutive subculture, histological expression of beta-galactosidase was found to show an increasing tendency from weak expression (occupying 9% of the young cells) to strong expression (occupying 65% of aging cells), and the positive expression rate of beta-galactosidase was found to be remarkably correlated with cell passage age (r=0.87, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: ① Compared with young cells, aging cells displayed more obvious aging morphology and enzyme cyto-chemical characteristics.During the cell aging process, the PDT of cells showed an increasing tendency. ②Compared with young cells, the expression of beta-galactosidase in aging cells was remarkably increased, and this increase paralleled with the appearance of cell aging phenotype and the loss of cell proliferation capability, and reflects the aging degree of cells. ③ The in vitro cultured normal human epidermal cell aging model was established in this experiment. The results of this experiment indicated that epidermal cells from the 1st -5th passage (donators aged 16-18 years old) can be taken as the optimal seed cells for tissue engineered skin construction.

BACKGROUND: As the seed cells for construction of tissue engineered skin, fibroblasts directly decide the quality of tissue-engineered skin. During in vitro culture, collagen gene expression and response to epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation of the fibroblasts in different passages can be indicative of their proliferative capability for use as the seed cells for skin tissue engineering.OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen mRNA in fibroblasts cultured in vitro and fibroblast response to EGF stimulation, and thereby providing reference for the selection of optimal seed cells for tissue engineering.DESIGN: Self-controlled experiment.SETTING: Institute of Plastic Surgery, Weifang Medical College.MATERIALS: This experiment was carried out at the Institute of Plastic Surgery, Weifang Medical College between September 2000 and June 2002. The specimens of normal prepuce tissues excised by circumcision were obtained from 20 healthy boys at the age between 6 and 8 years on a voluntarily basis in the Department of General Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical College.surgically excised prepuce by trypsin and type Ⅰ collagenase digestion. After cultured till 80% confluence, the cells were digested with mixed digescontrast microscope was used for dynamic observation of the cell morphology and growth status, and transmission electron microscopy and anti-vigen gene expression: Reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) was performed for amplification of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen cDNA derived from the total sis of fibroblast response to EGF stimulation: The fibroblasts of P10 and P60passage were divided into treatment group with stimulation by the conditioned medium containing EGF and control group with treatment with only the conditioned medium. 3H-TdR incorporation assay was performed for analyzing the growth of the fibroblasts in response to EGF stimulation.lasts of different passages to EGF stimulation.decreased with cell passaging and 3H-TdR incorporation was lower in P60cells without significant difference between the treatment group and control group (132.5±23.6 vs 124.9±16.8, P > 0.05) than in P10 cells with,however, significant difference between the two groups (512.8±56.4 vs 306.4±22.5, P < 0.01).EGF stimulation is weaker than P10 cells, moreover additional EGF in the condition medium has no obvious regulation on the proliferation of P60cell growth, but extremely remarkable on P10 cells, implying along with the increase of cell passage, tritium-thymidine incorporation reduced and regulative capability of EGF on aging fibroblastic growth was also attenuated.

Objective To investigate walking ability of amputees with unilateral transtibial prosthesis. Methods From April to Decem-ber, 2016, 20 unilateral transtibial amputees (patients) and 20 healthy adults (controls) were tested with L test, balance test, 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and 1000 m walking outdoor on various terrain. Results There was no significant difference in time of L test between the am-putees wearing Solid Ankle Cushion Heel (SACH) and Storage Foot (t=0.675, P>0.05). In balance tests, there was no significant difference in the total track length, confidence ellipse area, maximum horizontal deviation and maximum vertical deviation between the patients and the controls (t<0.803, P>0.05). Each parameter was significantly different in 6MWT between them (t>2.774, P<0.01), as well as the time and energy expenditure of outdoor 1000 m walk test (t>4.130, P<0.001). Conclusion The walking ability of the unilateral transtibial ampu-tees wearing prostheses is different from normal people. The transtibial prosthetic feet that the amputees wear may impact their walking abil-ity.
