Chronic liver diseases can further develop to liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Currently, there is no effective treatment except liver orthotopic transplantation at this point. The extreme shortage of liver organ source forced people to find alternative treatment strategies. Mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs) have the abilities of immunomodulatory, hepatocyte differentiation, promotion of liver cells regeneration in situ and inhibiting the activation of hepatic stellate cells. Therefore, MSCs transplantation provides a very broad prospect for cell therapy. It is important to provide preclinical evaluation of the efficacy and safety before the application of cell therapy in clinical trials. The progress of various animal models of human liver diseasees and significance of using MSCs to treat liver diseases in preclincal studies based on these animal models were reviewed in this paper.

Objective To analyze the five years change of bacterial infection adn drug resistance in PICU and to provide evidence for use of na tibiotics rationally.Methods Al the pathoeg nic bacteria from patients in PICU of our hospital from January 1 2009 to Deec mber 31 2013 were analyzed retrospectiev ly. T hey were divided into five subgroups according to differetn years.Pathogenic batc eria and drug resistance in different years wre e collected na d the changes of such bacterial infection and drug resistance were compared and summarized.Results A total of 2 201 pathogenic bacterial strains were isolated from 14 361 specimens of five-year patients in PICU.The rate of gram negative bacteria in 2009 to 2013 were 83.2%,71.0%, 59.8%,58.9%, 52.5% respe ctively.The rate of gram positive bacteria in 2009 to 2013 were 16.8%, 29.0%,40.2%, 41.1%, 47.5% respectively.Top five pathogenic bacteria were staphylocco cus aureus (16.6%,366 strains),Escherichia coli (16.2%,357 strains),klebsiella pnue moniae (15.2%,334 strains), streptococ us pneumoniae (9.2%,202 strains),haemophilus influenzae (6.8%,149 strains).The infection rate of staphylococcus aureus increased year by year(6.4% to 27.0%).Drug sensitivity tets indicated that the rate of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases ( ESBL) positive escherichia coli and klebsiella pneumoniae were 28.3%and 38.3%,respectivle y.The rate of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus ( MRSA) was 26.0%.Based on non-meningitis criterion,rate of penicillin resistance streptococcus pneumonia and multiple-drugresistance streptococcus pneumonia was 19.3%and 58.9%,respectively.There were no obvious changes in resistance rate of above-mentioned bacteria during the recent five years.Conclusion In the recent five years,gram negative bacteria is still the prevalent strain in PICU of our hospital,however the rate of gram positive bacteria increases year by year and staphylococcus aureus has become one of the five most common bacteria.The rate of ESBL positive escherichia coli,ESBL positive klebsiella pneumonia and MRSA has no obvious changes.Analysis of pathogenic bacteria and drug-resistance surveillance are of vital importance to guide treatments for critically ill patients and reduce drug-resistant bacterial strains.

Objective To study the value of 18F-fluoro-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) in diagnosis of patients suspected with gastric malignant tumors. Methods Ten women and fourteen men, with a mean age of (56±15) years (ranged from 28 to 83 years) suspected of gastric malignant tumors were enrolled from May 2007 to July 2007. According to the results of the first time endoscopy and biopsy, patients were divided into gastric cancer group (n=9) and suspected group(n= 15). 18F-FDG PET/CT whole body scan was performed in gastric cancer group for assistant operation and suspected group for further diagnosis. The results of PET/CT for suspected group were all confirmed by the endoscopy later. The final diagnosis was based on pathology and follow-up. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in diagnosis of gastric malignant tumors were analyzed, as well as the tumor staging before operation. Results The malignant tumor was found in 16 out of 24 patients who received 18F-FDG PET/CT scan, including 9 in gastric cancer group and 7 in suspected group. Sixteen tumors originated from stomach,and 1 infiltrated the liver, pancreas and omentum. Liver (1 case) and lung (1 case) metastases were found. Three lesions limited in intestine and 13 had positive lymph nodes. Two patiens in suspected group were not diagnosed by PET/CT, one was negative and the other, who suspected as gastric cancer by PET/CT, was pathologicaly confirmed as benign gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in diagnosis of gastric malignant tumors were 16/17, 6/7, 16/17 and 6/7, respectively. Six patients of stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ were all detected. Conclusions 18F-FDG PET/CT whole body scan is not only a feasible, safe, noninvasive and promising diagnostic tool in detecting and differentiating gastric cancer from benign tumor, but also can assist the management of disease.
