Objective To study the clinical features and diagnosis and therapy of the post-traumatic diabetes insipidus.Methods Forty patients with post-traumatic diabetes insipidus who admitted to our department from June 1990 to June 2000 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 26 cases of male and 14 cases of female.Average age was 21 years old.Results GCS score of twenty nine cases was 8;nine cases:9～12;two cases:13～15 at admission.37 cases survived in which 33 cases had a good recovery,and other 4 cases with persistent diabetes insipidus.The other 3 death after therapy.ConclusionMost post-traumatic diabetes insipidus are temporary,their prognosis are good through early diagonosis and effective treatment.

Objective:To study the effect of seeding cells of tissue-engineered skins,keratinocytes and fibroblasts,on the phenotypes of langerhans cells (LC).Methods:Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were induced by cytokines,granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF),interleukin 4 (IL-4),transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) to generate LCs,which were subsequently cocultured with allogenic keratinocytes or fibroblasts.Then the phenotypes of langerhans cells was detected by flow cytometer (FCM),and the degree of proliferation of autogeneic lymphocytes was assessed after stimulation with LCs.Results:Cultured LCs had low level expression of HLA-DR,CD80,CD86 and no expression of CD83.Cocultured with allogenic keratinocytes or fibroblasts,phenotypes of LCs did not change significantly.Simultaneously,LCs could not stimulate autogeneic lymphocytes proliferation.Conclusion:These data indicate that LCs cocultured with seeding cells of tissue-engineered skins remain immature state.It is suggested that seeding cells of tissue-engineered skins have low immunogenicity and are unable to induce significant immunological rejection of host after transplantation.

Moreover, many statistical indexes about the maintenance administration are available in this system.

Abstract PCB faults on X-ray machine occur frequently in our hospital due to humid climate, which lead to many malfunctions such as potentiometer failure, blank screen, lacking KV display, unavailable parameter choosing and disappearing of Er1～Er7 fault code. These malfunctions could be diagnosed and repaired quickly based on analyzing the status of the machine's workflow indicator lights, as well as studying circuit and function principle of the equipment.

Objective To investigate the influence of Wnt-3a signaling on aggregative growth of dermal papilla cells.Methods Recombinant adenovirus pAdEasy-1/Wnt-3a was constructed at first,and used to transfect cultured dermal papilla cells(DPCs).Then,the growth pattem of DPCs was observed by inverse microscopy;laser confocal microscopy and Western blot were utilized to detect the expressions of Wnt-3a,β-catenin and versican in low-passage DPCs,high-passage DPCs and transfected high-passage DPCs.Results The over-expression of Wnt-3a protein could effectively induce the aggregative growth of DPCs.Laser confocal microscopy showed that the fluorescence intensity of β-catenin and versican increased from 34.16±9.62 and 18.81±9.59 in high-passage DPCs to 87.35±17.28 and 92.18±18.39 in transfected high-passage DPCs(t=11.98,17.88,both P＜0.0 1),respectively.Also,Western blot proved a significant increase of expression intensity of β-catenin(15.27±2.17 vs 60.09±7.24,t=10.10,P＜0.01)and versican(19.32±2.46 vs 58.46±2.78,t=20.63,P＜0.01)in transfected high-passage DPCs compared with untransfected high-passage DPCS.ConclusionsWnt-3a signaling plays an important role in modulating aggregative growth of DPCs,which is mainly through the classical pathway with β-catenin as the key protein.As an important downstream gene of Wnt signaling,vesican is an indispensable part for the modulation of aggregative growth of DPCs.

AIM:To study the chemical constituents of Lysimachia clethroide Duby. METHODS:Chromatographic techniques,including MS and NMR,were used to isolate and purify the constituents based on column chromatography separation on silica gel,Sephadex LH-20 and Semipreparative RP-HPLC.

CONCLUSION: Compounds 3,6 were isolated from this plant and compounds 8-11 were isolated from this genus for the first time.

BACKGROUND:Some studies have shown that the double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is not superior to the single-bundle posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, and stil has some deficiencies difficult to overcome. Which is better, double-bundle reconstruction or single-bundle reconstruction? There is no uniform conclusion. OBJECTIVE:To perform a prospective cohort study on the clinical efficacy and safety of autologous single- and double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. METHODS:Totaly 81 patients with posterior cruciate ligament injury were randomly divided into single-bundle reconstruction group (n=41) and double-bundle reconstruction group (n=40). The knee stability, Lysholm score, Tegner score, hospital stay, operation time, fever days and number of puncture cases were compared between the two groups before and 24 months after reconstruction. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the single-bundle reconstruction group, the knee stability was significantly worse in the double-bundle reconstruction group (F=4.362,P=0.000); the operation time, hospital stay and number of puncture cases were also higher in the double-bundle reconstruction group (P < 0.05). At 24 months after reconstruction, the Lysholm and Tegner scores were both increased significantly in the two groups (P < 0.05), but there was no difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). These findings indicate that both single- and double-bundle reconstruction under arthroscopy is safe and effective treatment for posterior cruciate ligament injury, but the double-bundle reconstruction is not recommended as the preferred surgical procedure because of longer time and larger trauma.

Objective:To investigate the expression of MST1 in ovarian cancer (OV) , its relationship with the clinicopathological characteristics, and the potential molecular mechanism.Methods:62 OV patients admitted to Chongqing Emergency Medical Center and the Fifth People’s Hospital of Chongqing from Mar. 2016 to Feb. 2020 were selected. The expression levels of mRNA were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. [MST1 over-expression group: 24 h: (0.31±0.02) , 48 h: (0.44±0.03) , 72 h: (0.62±0.02) ; Blank group:24 h: (0.32±0.02) , (0.55±0.02) , (0.74±0.02) ;MST1 empty vector group:24 h: (0.32±0.03) , 48 h: (0.56±0.02) , 72 h: (0.77±0.02) ]Results:The expression of MST1 was lower in OV than in adjacent tissues[ (0.52±0.12) vs (1.18±0.21) ]. MST1 expression level was not related to age, but significantly correlated with the size of the tumors[ (0.46±0.12) vs (0.58±0.10) , P=0.00], TNM[ (0.57±0.10) vs (0.43±0.12) , P=0.00], TNM stage 9 (0.57±0.10) vs (0.43±0.12) , P=0.00] and lymph node metastasis[ (0.47±0.14) vs (0.56±0.09) , P=0.003]. Over-expression of MST1 obviously inhibited cellular proliferation in OV (MST1 over-expression group: 24 h: 0.31±0.02, 48 h: 0.44±0.03, 72 h: 0.62±0.02; blank group: 24 h: 0.32±0.02, 0.55±0.02, 0.74±0.02; empty vector group: 24 h: 0.32±0.03, 48 h: 0.56±0.02, 72 h: 0.77±0.02) . MST1 over-expression could promote FOXO3 expression, ,the expression level of FOXO3 in Mst1 overexpression group and control group were[ (0.61±0.04) vs (0.41±0.03) ]. MST1 inhibited proliferation of OV cells through upregulating the expression of FOXO3. Conclusions:The expression of MST1 is closely related to the clinicopathological features of OV patients, and MST1 may restrain OV by positively regulating FOXO3 expression.
