Objective To evaluate the efifcacy and safety of hemostatics of injected gelatin matrix (HIGM) under the guidance of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for treating splenic trauma in canine model. Methods A total of 24 commercial hybrid dogs underwent celiotomy with creation of uniformly blunt splenic trauma lesion of 4.0 cm×4.0 cm×2.5 cm (length, width and depth, respectively) by hemostatic clamp. Subjects were prospectively randomized into two groups. The treatment group was treated with HIGM under the guidance of CEUS and the positive control group received thrombin solution. Conventional ultrasound and CEUS were performed to record the ascites and the splenic lesion areas at 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st day. The ifne needle biopsy and splenectomy were performed for histopathologic examination. The weight, free intraperitoneal lfuid and injury site were compared with t test between HIGM and postive group. Results All animals in two groups survived. All dogs stopped hemorrhage after injection of HIGM under CEUS guidance. The area of injury site was (12.91±0.89) cm2, (4.45±0.75) cm2 and (1.38±0.23) cm2 at 1st, 3rd and 7th day and splenic lesions were not found at 14th and 21st day in all dogs (n=12) of HIGM group. The splenic lesion was (16.74±0.91) cm2, (11.26±0.99) cm2, (8.02±0.82) cm2 and (1.58±0.36) cm2 in the postive group at 1st, 3rd, 7th and 14th day and splenic lesions were not found at 21st day in all dogs (n=12). At 7th and 14th day post-injection, lesion areas were statistically significant between two groups (t=27.162, P=0.008;t=15.129, P=0.001). Free intraperitoneal lfuid was (0.91±0.05) cm at 1st day detected by conventional ultrasound and free intraperitoneal fluid was not found at 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st day in all dogs (n=12) of HIGM group. The free intraperitoneal fluid in thepositive group was (1.96±0.17) cm, (1.30±0.11) cm and (0.81±0.12) cm at 1st, 3rd and 7th day and free intraperitoneal lfuid was not found at 14th and 21st day in all dogs (n=12). At 1st, 3rd and 7th day post-injection, free intraperatitoneal lfuid was statistically significant between two groups (t=20.934, P=0.003; t=41.310, P=0.000; t=22.520, P=0.000). Histopathological examination showed that there was no foreign body and foreign body granuloma and the structure of red pulp was recovered at 7th, 14th and 21st day. Gross anatomy showed that the splenic injury site was recovered completely without complications. Conclusion This study explored the value of HIGM for splenic trauma and provided a preliminary experimental evidence for clinical treatment.

BACKGROUND: Stent under-expansion and procedurally related abnormal lesion morphologies (e.g. dissection, thrombus) are associated with stent restenosis and acute, subacute and chronic thrombosis.OBJECTIVE: To explore whether larger post-procedural final minimum stent area can be acquired and more procedurally related complications can be identified in stent implantation guided by intravascular ultrasound.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Retrospective analysis was performed at the Heart Center of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University between January 2004 and February 2005.PARTICIPANTS: Fifty patients with coronary artery disease with 52 lesions were enrolled in the study and underwent stenting guided by intravascular ultrasound. The patients were characterized as non-diffused lesion with vessel diameter ≥ 2.5 mm. Patients with severe left main lesion were excluded.METHODS: Qualitative and quantitative analyses were carried out in 50 patients with 52 lesions before and after stent implantation. The stent diameter and the end-point of therapy were determined by intravascular ultrasound standard.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The differences of end point for stent implantation and the enlargement of lumen area gained by stent implantation were compared between cardioangiography and by intravascular ultrasound.RESULTS: The average stent diameter guided by intravascular ultrasound was larger than by cardioangiography (P=0.011); the peak balloon pressure was higher in intravascular ultrasound group than cardioangiography group (P < 0.001), and area stenosis percentage measured by quantitative coronary angiogram was smaller in intravascular ultrasound group than cardioangiography group (P=0.044). ②Cardioangiography showed success rate was 96.2% and intravascular ultrasound showed the success rate was only 37.7% after first balloon high-pressure dilation. Intravascular ultrasound subgroup analysis showed higher peak balloon pressure (P < 0.001), larger lumen diameter (P < 0.001), larger lumen area (P < 0.001), and smaller area stenosis percentage (P < 0.001). No obvious stenosis was found at the proximal and distal segments of the stent observed by cardioangiography, while atherosclerotic lesions at proximal segment were found in 39 cases (75.0%) and at distal segment were in 23 cases (44.2%) observed by intravascular ultrasound. The lumen area was larger in non-fatty plaque than in fatty plaque after stent implantation (P < 0.001). Compared with non-fatty plaque, the enlargement of vessel area was 1.30 mm2 smaller, while plaque compression was 0.48 mm2 larger. CONCLUSION: Stent implantation guided by intravascular ultrasound can acquire larger final lumen area and identify more procedurally related complications.

Objective To investigate the ultrasonic characteristics of angiographical normal left main (LM) branch of coronary artery observing with intravaseular ultrasound(IVUS). Methods Seventy-six patients whose coronary angiogram showed the lesions restricted only in left anterior descending (LAD) branch or left cireumflex(LCX) branch and no lesion was found in LM branch were enrolled and IVUS was performed. The plaque burden was measured and the quality of atherosclerosis was identified in lesion site of LAD or LCX by IVUS. Meanwhile,the absence or existence of lesions in LM was identified,and the quality of lesions was analyzed if it showing those existed lesions. The diameter and area of lumen in left main were measured and diameter and area of vessel were also measured. The plaque burden were measured for those who atheroselerosis existed in LM. Results IVUS showed 28 cases completely normal, 12 cases with intimal membrance hyperplesia,36 cases with plaque and 2 cases with intimal membrance flap in patients which LM was angiographically normal. Among those there were 30 eccentric plaques and 6 concentric plaques. For 36 patients whose lesions existed in LM observed by IVUS,there were 25 cases (69.4%) with soft plaque,4 eases (11.1%) with fibrous plaque,2 cases (5.6%) with calcific plaque,5 cases (13.9%)with mixed plaque. IVUS showed lumen diameter was (5.32±0.68)mm and lumen area was (23.34±5.27)mm2 for female patients; and lumen diameter was (5.90±0.50)mm and lumen area was (27.75±4.47)mm2 for male patients. The difference had significane when comparing lumen diameter and lumen area between male and female patients (P=0.042 and P=0.048, respectively). Vessel diameter was (5.90±0.47)mm and vessel area was (27.58±4.21)mm2 in patients with intimal membrance hyperplesia; lumen diameter was (4.39±0.54)mm and lumen area was (17.45±5.23)mm2,vessel diameter was (5.99±0.67)mm and vessel area was(26.61±6.27)mm2 n patients with atherosclerotic plaque.Diameter stenosis percentage was(26.17±7.87)%and plaque burden was(34.79±9.37)%in LM.Conclusions IVUS can find those lesions in LM which CAG cannot detect and identify the quality and severity of lesion precisely.

Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2015;30(6):E515-E520
Objective To study the influence from load strength on solute transport rate in lacunar-canalicular system (LCS) of loaded tibia using finite element method.Methods Based on micro-CT scan images of adult mice tibia, the finite element model of the tibia, which was regarded as being homogeneous biphasic-solute, was established by software of Mimics, Hypermesh and FEBio. The relationship between transport rate and solute diffusivity/load strength was obtained by setting 3 groups of different solute diffusivity (3, 15, 30 μm2/s) and load strength (0.2, 2.0, 5.0 N), respectively. By comparing the results from both fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) experiment and finite element method, the effect of load stimulation on transport enhancement was analyzed. Results The transport rate increased with the increase of diffusion rate and load strength. The results from finite element method were basically consistent with the solute transport rules by comparing data from FRAP experiment. Conclusions The research findings can provide some basis for load response and liquidity in deep area of cortical bone, and for further revealing the mechanism of bone regeneration.
