Objective To investigate the incidence and extent of biopsy tract contamination in malignant bone tumors by either core needle biopsy or open biopsy and detect the safe extent in resection of biopsy tract. Methods Forty-eight cases were performed core needle biopsy, including 37 osteosarcomas, 5 malignant fibrous histiocytomas, 1 juxtacortical osteosarcoma, 1 low grade central osteosarcoma, 1 periosteal osteosarcoma, 1 primary malignant melanoma of bone and 2 chondrosarcomas. There were 37 males and 11 females with a mean age of 23.3 years (range, 10-64 years). The mean time between core needle biopsy and definitive surgery was 1.3 months (range, 0-2 months). All the patients were performed limb salvage surgery.Twenty-six cases were performed open biopsy, including 20 osteosareomas, 1 Ewing's sarcoma, 2 chondrosarcomas, 1 mesenchymal chondrosarcoma, 1 malignant fibrous histiocytoma, 1 lymphoma. There were 21males and 5 females with a mean age of 21.9 years (range, 8-59 years). The mean time between open biopsy and definitive surgery was 2.3 months (range, 1-4 months). The tumor and tissue around the biopsy tract at least 2 cm were resected. The pathological examination was performed in specimens via the biopsy tract, including the normal soft tissue outside the tumor, deep fascia, subcutaneous tissue and skin. The incidence and extent of biopsy tract contamination were evaluated with pathological examination. Results Forty-four cases were followed up. The mean follow-up time was 17.6 months (range, 4-39 months). In core needle biopsy group, four of forty-eight cases were found malignant tumor cells seeding in biopsy tract, the positive rate was 8.3%. In open biopsy group, all the cases were followed up with the mean time of 12.9 months (range, 2-29 months), and two of twenty-six cases were found malignant tumor cells seeding in biopsy tract,the positive rate was 7.7%. Conclusion Biopsy of malignant bone tumors has the risk of biopsy tract contamination. The tumor cell seeding exists in both core needle biopsy and open biopsy. The biopsy tract should be performed en bloc resection with the tumor.

To investigate whether human umbilical cord plasma (HUP) can be used to culture human cord blood mesenchymal stem cells (HUCMSCs), we collected 20 surplus HUP. After being treated with salting out and diasysis, the HUP were used to culture HUCMSCs as 10% volume, and compared with fetal bovine serum (FBS). Morphological characteristics, growth curve and reproductive activity of HUCMSCs cells were observed. The concentration of bFGF and noggin secreted by HUCMSCs cultured with HUP and FBS medium were detected by ELISA. It was found that compared to FBS, the morphology, reproductive activity and characteristic of HUCMSCs cell cultured with HUP were not distinctively different from FBS. The concentration of bFGF in HUP group was significantly higher than that of FBS group, and the concentration of noggin was also different in the two groups. So we concluded that HUP could be used to culture HUCMSCs for a long-time, and the HUP mediumcoild could be more suitable for the culture of human embryonic stem cell (hESC).

Objective To study the efficacy of low-dose daytime ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (DAPD) and low-dose CAPD in diabetic end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with better residual renal function (RRF). Methods Forty stable diabetic ESRD patients with better RRF (rGFR ≥ 5 ml/min and urine volume ≥ 750 ml/d) were enrolled. They were randomly divided into two groups: low-dose DAPD group (n=20) and low-dose CAPD group (n=20). DAPD group received three 1.5 L to 2 L daily exchanges with a nocturnal empty belly, dwelling for 3 to 4 hours. CAPD group received three 1.5 L to 2 L daily exchange or four 1.5 L daily exchange regimens and dwelled during the night. At the beginning of the study and 6 months later, total weekly Kt/V and Ccr (peritoneal+renal), rGFR were calculated. Meanwhile 24-hour urinary protein,serum albumin (Alb), hemoglobin (Hb), fasting plasma glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin and insulin dosage were measured. Nutritional status was assessed by SGA. Results Thirty-five patients fulfilled the study. There were no significant differences between two groups in age, gender, BMI,PD time, D/Pcr, etc. At the end of the 6th month, the insulin dose[(33.6±10.9) U/d] and 24-hour dialysate protein [(11.13t4.95) g] in CAPD group were significantly higher as compared to DAPD group [(20.6±6.2) U/d, P<0.05 and (5.66±2.88) g, P<0.01 respectively]. Alb in CAPD group [(29.7±4.2) g/L] was significantly lower than that in DAPD group [(36.5 ±3.9) g/L, P<0.05].While the net ultrafiltration [(554±187) ml vs (309±177) ml], 24-hour urine volume [(1090±361)ml vs (750±258) ml] and rGFR [(8.21±2.40) ml/min vs (4.88±2.11) ml/min] in DAPD group were all significantly higher than those in CAPD group (all P<0.05). Conclusion For the diabetic ESRD patients with better RRF, the low-dose DAPD regimen is more effective to control plasma glucose, improve nutritional status and protect RRF than the low-dose CAPD.

ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy and safety of intermittent patient-initiated single-dose antibiotic prophylaxis and continuous antibiotic prophylaxis for the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) in postmenopausal women. MethodsA randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted for the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infection. Single dose of antibiotic was given every night in continuous antibiotic prophylaxis group and every time after exposure to conditions predisposed to UTI in intermittent antibiotic prophylaxis group. The duration of prevention was 12 months in both groups. ResultsThe effective rates of intermittent antibiotic prophylaxis and continuous antibiotic prophylaxis were 71.0% and 81.8% respectively (P>0.05). The incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reaction in intermittent antibiotic prophylaxis group was significantly lower than that in continuous antibiotic prophylaxis group (7.7% vs 28.6%,P<0.05). ConclusionsCompared with continuous antibiotic prophylaxis, intermittent patient-initiated single-dose antibiotic prophylaxis is a better prophylaxis with less gastrointestinal adverse reactions for the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infection in postmenopausal women.

BACKGROUND:Numerous studies have demonstrated that estrogen can regulate the proliferation and migration of endothelial progenitor cel s (EPCs), while EPCs can also promote the function and activity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s (BMSCs) in vitro. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the ability of the BMSCs and EPCs which construct the composite cel sheet in the repair of alveolar bone defect in ovariectomized rats. METHODS:BMSCs/EPCs composite sheet, EPCs sheet and BMSCs sheet were respectively implanted into the defects of the alveolar bone in ovariectomized rats. Rats with no implantation served as control group. Repaired alveolar bone was assessed by gross examination, histological observation and micro-CT scan at 2, 4, 8 weeks after operation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:BMSCs/EPCs composite sheet has greater osteogensis activity and bone repair capacity than BMSCs or EPCs sheet alone.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have found that estrogen deficiency causes a reduction in the activity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s (BMSCs). OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of endothelial progenitor cel s (EPCs) on the BMSCs proliferation and apoptosis ability of osteoporosis rats. METHODS:Healthy female Sprague-Dawley rats, 6 weeks old, were enrol ed and subjected to bilateral ovariectomy to make osteoporosis models. BMSCs and EPCs were isolated using density gradient centrifugation combined with adhesion method, and identified with surface markers, cel proliferation and immunocytochemistry in vitro. We used Transwel inserts to establish EPCs and OVX-BMSCs indirect co-culture system. Control groups were OVX-BMSCs group and sham-BMSCs group in which rats were only subjected to remove the equal amount of fat tissues around the ovary. Flow cytometry was applied to detect BMSCs proliferation and apoptosis ability. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control groups, the results of flow cytometry test showed that the proportion of OVX-BMSCs at S phase was significantly increased at 3 days of indirect co-culture with EPCs and the apoptosis rate was significanty reduced at 10 days of indirect co-culture with EPCs (both P<0.05). These results suggest that EPCs can promote the proliferation but inhibit the apoptosis of OVX-BMSCs.

Objective Cryptococcosis is a potential life-threatening systemic mycosis with a heterogeneous susceptible popu-lation which is classified into three groups according to the current guidelines, including AIDS patients, organ transplantation recipients ( OTR) , and non-HIV-infected and non-transplant hosts ( NHNT) .This study aimed to discuss the influence of basic diseases on the clinical features and prognosis of NHNT cryptococcosis patients. Methods Using a retrospective cohort study design, we retrieved the clinical data about 73 NHNT cryptococcosis patients treated in Jinling Hospital.Based on the presence or absence of immunodefi-ciency or infection-increasing complications, we divided the patients into a basic disease group ( n=35) and a non-basic disease group ( n=38) and analyzed their clinical characteristics, chest radiographic features, laboratory results, and clinical outcomes. Results Compared with the non-basic disease group, the basic disease group showed a significantly higher incidence rate of disseminated disea-ses (62.9%vs 21.1%, P<0.01), more cases of patchy consolidation (47.4%vs 16.7%, P<0.05) and mixed lesion (31.6%vs 3.3%, P<0.05) in chest radiography, and a higher mortality (30.0%vs 5.3%, P=0.016). Conclusion Basic diseases have a great impact on the clinical features and prognosis of NHNT cryptococcosis.NHNT patients with basic diseases are susceptible to dis-seminated diseases with severer clinical symptoms and a higher mortality.

Methods Thirty-six cases of acute leukemia patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group by 18 cases each. Each group was treated with conventional chemotherapy in the standard-dose, meanwhile in the experimental group additional thalidomide 100 mg/day were taken orally. Before treatment and 8 weeks after treatment, plasma were collected for the detection of VEGF, VEGFR and bFGF content by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results The ratio of experimental group and control group, were 88.9 % (16/18), 77.8 % (14/18)respectively and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.103, P <0.05). The level of plasma VEGF (389.78+249.94 pg/ml, 318.54±125.78 pg/ml) of experimental group and control group before treatment was statistically significant (t = 3.141, t =3.024, P <0.01) compared with healthy group [(132.91±26.66) pg/ml] respectively. The level of plasma VEGF of those groups after treatment [(211.74+36.72) pg/ml, (288.02±31.77) pg/ml] was statistically significant (t =2.413, t =2.324, P <0.05) compared with healthy group respectively. The difference of the level of plasma VEGF of experimental group and control group before treatment was not statistically significant (t =1.384, P >0.05). The difference of the level of plasma VEGF of experimental group and control group after treatment was statistically significant(t =2.793,P <0.05). The level of plasma VEGFR [(2490.75+1695.9) pg/ml, (2322.78+1105.87) pg/ml] of experimental group and control group before treatment was statistically significant (t =2.914, t =2.783, P <0.01) compared with healthy group [(1134.98+378.45) pg/ml] respectively. The level of plasma VEGFR of those groups after treatment [(1359.71± 390.24) pg/ml, (1753.89±337.04) pg/ml] was statistically significant(t =2.572, t =2.447, P <0.05) compared with healthy group respectively. The difference of the level of plasma VEGFR of experimental group and control group before treatment was not statistically significant (t =1.276, P >0.05). The difference of the level of plasma VEGFR of experimental group and control group after treatment was statistically significant (t = 2.486, P <0.05). The level of plasma bFGF [(2.43±0.27) ng/ml, (2.41±0.33) ng/ml] of experimental group and control group before treatment was statistically significant(t =4.982, t =4.171, P <0.05) compared with healthy group (1.83±0.44) ng/ml respectively; the level of plasma bFGF of those groups after treatment [(2.09±0.17) ng/ml,(2.11±0.31) ng/ml] was statistically significant (t =3.011, t =2.773, P <0.05) compared with healthy group respectively. The difference of the level of plasma bFGF of experimental group and control group before treatment was not statistically significant (t =0.953, P >0.05). The difference of the level of plasma bFGF of experimental group and control group after treatment was not statistically significant (t =1.282, P >0.05).Conclusion The remission rate could be improved by thalidomide combined with chemotherapy in acute leukemia, which could be an effective treatment by anti-angiogenesis and inhibiting the growth and infiltration of acute leukemia cells.
