Bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) is a chronic lung disease of prematurity mainly affecting preterm infants with low birth weights, especially those treated with mechanical ventilation and oxygen therapy.There is no specific treatment for BPD until now.Administration of mesenchymal stem cells seems to be an promising novel treatment.Mesenchymal stem cell(MSC) can attenuate lung injury in an amount of animal experiments.But the mechanism is unclear yet.The best dose, timing and the application route of transplantation as the standard treatment strategy is still unresolved.The phase Ⅰ clinical trail shows short-term safety and efficacy of MSC administration.Phase Ⅱ trails and long-term safety studies are under way.This review focuses on the recent achievement in treating BPD with MSC transplantation.

Objective To establish nude mouse model with human brain glioma SHG-44 and understand its growing characteristics in vivo.Methods The 4-week-old male mice were randomly divided into high density cell suspension inoculation group(n=10),low density cell suspension group(n=10),the tumor tissue mass vaccination group(n=10)and the blank control group with normal saline injection(n=10).The SHG-44 human brain glioma cell suspension was injected into the subcutaneous of the nude mice' s armpit.The tumor tissue was cut into 1 mm3 after tumor tissue growth and formation,and re-inoculated into the subcutaneous of the new nude mice' s armpits.Apart from daily observation,the long and short diameters of tumor were recorded every 5 days after graft.All the mice were sacrificed at 60 days and the tumor tissues were harvested for pathological examination.Results With a longer incubation period and slower growth rate,the tumor formation rate in high density cell suspension inoculation group and low density cell suspension group was lower compared with that in the tumor tissue mass vaccination group.Around day 20,grafted tumor appeared remarkably big((41.51 ±6.42)mm3) with good morphology.On day 50,the tumor derived from group the tumor tissue mass vaccination group((565.69± 123.36)mm3) showed a bigger size in comparison with that from high density cell suspension inoculation group((203.85±104.63) mm3) and low density cell suspension group ((153.02± 31.76) mm3,all P＜0.05).The tumors in three groups were well defined with a rich vascularity and no apparent invasion was observed.The positive expression of GFAP and S-100 in a large body of tumor cells was observed under optical microscope.Conclusion With a shorter incubation period and faster growth,the mouse tumor models established with tissue pieces from the tumor-bearing mice are much better compared to those with cell suspension.

BACKGROUND: Electrochemically deposited coating, as an alternative method of plasma spraying coating, has arose widely attention, however, few reports concerning its in vivo biological features, especially the effect of coating on early osseointegration and duration of bone healing is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the early osseointegration of electrodepositied calcium phosphate and calcium phosphate/chitosan coatings on rabbits' femurs. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: An open experiment. The experiment was performed at the Key Laboratory for Oral Biomedical Engineering of Ministry of Education, Stomatology School of Wuhan University from April 2008 to May 2009. MATERIALS: Eighteen male Japanese rabbits were supplied by the animals' center of Wuhan University. Ti_6Al_4V alloy was purchased from Baoji Titanium Nickel Co., Ltd. Chitosan with over 75% degree of deacetylation was produced by American Sigma Company.METHODS: ① Cylindrical titanium alloy implants (3.3×8.0 mm) were designed with a gap (0.3×4.0 mm) in the middle part by using precision machine tool. The implants were prepared electrodeposited calcium phosphate coating surface (ELD group) and electrodeposited calcium phosphate/chitosan coating surface (ELDC group) with 2.5 mA/cm~2 electric current and 52 V temperature. Meantime, the implants with sandblasted surface were prepared as the control group. Totally 36 implants were randomly inserted into the distal femur condyles of 18 rabbits, and the new bone formation was labeled by fluorescence staining. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: At weeks 2 and 4 after operation, the implants were subjected to histological and histomorphometric analysis. RESULTS: All groups were observed different-quantity new bone formation. However, only ELDC group was seen fibrous tissues intervened at bone-to-implant interface. The ELD coatings were heterogeneously degraded, and the majority of the ELDC coatings were degraded. The new bone within gaps of ELD and control groups could be seen under the confocal laser scanning microscope with a continuous process of bone apposition. Percentages of bone-to-implant contact within and outside of the gaps of ELD group at weeks 2 and 4 were significantly higher than those of ELDC and control groups (P < 0.05). Bone formation rates of ELD group were significantly higher than those of ELDC group at weeks 2 and 4 after operation (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: ELD implants can promote early osseointegration and induce bone tissue growth into the gaps; however, ELDC implants go against osseointegration of rabbit femurs.

Dopamine is the precursor of biosynthesis of norepinephrine. Low-dose dopamine mainly excites dopamine receptors, which may dilate renal and mesenteric vessels, increase renal blood flow and improve the microcirculation. In recent years, low-dose dopamine has been widely applied in the field of kidney transplantation due to its vasoactive effect. However, with the development of evidence-based medicine, the role of dopamine in protecting the perfusion function of renal allograft in kidney transplantation has been questioned. Multiple studies have shown that dopamine brings no significant benefit to renal and cardiac function in kidney transplantation, exerts low pressor effect, and may even increase the risk of perioperative complications. Norepinephrine may be used as a safe substitute. In this article, recent progress in the effect of dopamine upon renal and cardiac function and hemodynamics during kidney transplantation was reviewed, aiming to provide reference for clinical application of dopamine in kidney transplantation.

Objective To investigate the time efficiency and accuracy of atlas-based auto-segmentation ( ABAS ) software with different atlas template numbers and layers of computed tomography ( CT ) scans in delineation of the target tissues of cervical cancer patients receiving radiotherapy . Methods The CT images from 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 patients with cervical cancer were separately selected as atlas templates for MIM auto-segmentation software, and the CT-based tumor volumes of another 20 patients with cervical cancer were manually contoured by physicians. The quality of contours obtained automatically from the software and manual contouring was compared by one-way analysis of variance ( ANOVA ) , randomized block ANOVA, and least significant difference t test. The impact of atlas template numbers and layers of CT scans on the accuracy and time efficiency of MIM software was analyzed based on the time spent in delineation, dice similarity coefficient, and overlap index. Results Taking manual contouring as the reference, no significant differences were observed in the accuracy and time efficiency of auto-contouring when atlas template numbers ranged from 20 to 120(all P>005). The ABAS auto-contouring significantly shortened the time for target contours when the layers of CT scans were less than 65 ( all P>005 ) , but reduced the accuracy of rectal contours (P=0000), while CT scans with 67 layers achieved the highest accuracy of rectal contours ( P= 0037 ) . Conclusions The ABAS software shows an advantage in delineation of the target tissues of cervical cancer patients receiving radiotherapy, and 20 templates are suggested to construct this atlas. The CT scans with 65 layers are recommended for patients when target tissues include the bladder, femur, and spinal cord, and CT scans with 67 layers are recommended for patients when target tissues include the rectum.

Objective:To explore the effect of improving oral care based on cluster management in ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP).Methods:Totally 126 VAP patients from February 2019 to February 2020 in our hospital were selected. The patients admitted from February 2019 to August 2019 were the control group, and the patients from September 2019 to February 2020 were the observation group, 63 cases in each group. The control group was treated with cluster nursing, and the observation group was treated with cluster nursing with improved oral care. The EICU hospitalization time, mechanical ventilation time, plaque index, pathogen infection, oral cleaning score, oral bleeding ulcer and aspiration were compared between the two groups.Results:After nursing, the EICU hospitalization time and mechanical ventilation time in the observation group were (18.34±4.15), (8.56±2.14) days, which were shorter than (23.56±4.82), (12.04±3.10) days in the control group ( t value was -6.514, -7.333, P<0.05). During the nursing process, the incidence of bleeding ulcer and aspiration in the observation group were 12.70% (8/63), 6.35% (4/63), which were lower than 30.16% (19/63), 20.63% (13/63) in the control group ( χ 2 values were 5.704, 5.508, P<0.05). After nursing, the plaque index of the two groups was lower than that before nursing ( t values were 12.516, 6.654, P<0.05), and the plaque index of the observation group was lower than that of the control group ( t value was -6.860, P<0.05). During the nursing process, the incidence of pathogenic bacteria infection in the observation group was 28.57% (18/63), which was lower than 49.21% (31/63) in the control group ( χ 2 value was 5.644, P<0.05). After nursing, the oral cleaning score of the two groups was lower than that before nursing ( t values were 11.118, 6.240, P<0.05), and the score of the observation group was (14.38±3.60) points, which was lower than (18.20±4.11) points of the control group ( t value was -5.549, P<0.05). Conclusion:Auricular pressure therapy can effectively improve the constipation symptoms, shorten the time required to take effect for the main symptoms, and improve the quality of life of schizophrenic patients.

Objective To explore the risk factors and short outcomes associated with late-onset sep-sis (LOS) in very low and extremely low birth weight infants.Methods Retrospective analysis were per-formed to predict risk factors for LOS in very low and extremely low birth weight infants (birth weight less than 1 200 g) admitted to NICU of Shengjing Hospital from Jan 2010 to Dec 2015.Infants with similar birth weight without LOS were as controls.We compared the characteristics of maternal and neonatal periods in both groups.Multivariable Logistic regression models were derived to predict LOS sepsis.Short outcomes of the infants were assessed.Results Total of 381 very low birth weight infants were admitted during the study period.LOS occurred in 138 infants(36.2%,138/381),who developed sepsis at a mean age of (19.8 ± 11.0)days;the mean gestational age,birth weight and hospitalization time were(29.4 ± 2.1)week,1 064 (953,1 126)g and 55(43,72)d.Other 243 cases were control,mean gestational age,brith weight and hospi-talization time were(29.3 ± 2.0)week,1 060(955,1 144)g and 49(37,63)d.Ninety-seven cases had posi-tive blood culture(70.3%,97/138) in LOS group.Out of the 138 cases of LOS,8 cases(5.8%,8/138) died from their sepsis with a positive blood culture.Infants with LOS were more likely to have a long-term use of ventilation and peripherally inserted central catheteh(PICC),the failure of early enteral feeding,delayed com-plete enteral feeding time and the longer hospital stays compared to uninfected infants.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that long-term use of PICC(OR 1.039,95%CI 1.012-1.067,P=0.004)was an independent risk factor for LOS in very low birth weitht infants. Septic infants,compared with nonseptic infants,had significantly more serious morbidity,including white matter damage(20.3% vs.10.3%),necro-tizing enterocolitis(9.4% vs.2.9%),retinopathy of prematurity(10.9% vs.3.7%),and cholestatic jaun-dice(19.6% vs.11.9%)(P<0.05).Conclusion A number of factors are related to LOS.LOS is associated with poor prognosis of preterm infants.Long-time PICC is a risk factor for LOS.

Objective To investigate the effect of temperature on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation inhibition of preosteoblast induced by hydrogen peroxide(H2 O2).Methods The MC3T3-E1 cells in the logarithmic phase were randomly divided into 0,450,500,550,600,650 μmol·L-1 H2O2 intervention groups and incubated with 0,450,500,550,600,650 μmol·L-1 H2O2 for 2 h,respectively.Other MC3T3-E1 cells in the logarithmic phase were selected and randomly divided into the control group,model group,low-temperature group,and high-temperature group.Cells in the control group were cul-tured in an incubator with 5％CO2 for 24 h at 37 ℃;cells in the model group were incubated with H2O2 for 2 h and cultured in an incubator with 5％CO2 for 24 h at 37 ℃;cells in the low-temperature group were incubated with H2O2 for 2 h and cultured in an incubator with 5％CO2 for 24 h at 32 ℃;cells in the high-temperature group were incubated with H2O2 for 2 h and cultured in an incubator with 5％CO2 for 24 h at 40 ℃.The cell proliferation in all groups was detected by cell counting kit-8.The expression levels of Runt-related transcription factor 2(RUNX2),osteopontin(OPN)and osteocalcin(OC)mRNA were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitave polymerase chain reaction;and the expression levels of RUNX2,OPN and OC protein were detected by Western blot.Results There was no statistically significant difference in cell proliferation among the 0,450 and 500 μmol·L-1 H2O2 intervention groups(P＞0.05);the cell proliferation rate in the 550,600 and 650 μmol·L-1 H2O2 intervention groups was significantly lower than that in the 0,450 and 500 μmol·L-1 H2O2 intervention groups,showing a significant decrease in cell proliferation with the increase of H2O2 concentrations(P＜0.05).In order to ensure that there were enough cells to perform the following experiments,550 μmol·L-1 H2 O2 was chosen.The cell proliferation rate in the model group and the low-temperature group was significantly lower than that in the control group and high-temperature group(P＜0.05);there was no significant difference in the cell proliferation rate between the control group and high-temperature group(P＞0.05).The relative expression of RUNX2 mRNA in the model group and high-temperature group were significantly higher than that in the control group and low-temperature group(P＜0.05);the relative expression of RUNX2 mRNA in the low-temperature group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05);there was no significant difference in the relative expression of RUNX2 mRNA between the model group and high-temperature group(P＞0.05).The relative expression of OPN mRNA in the model group,low-temperature group and high-temperature group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05);the relative expression of OPN mRNA in the low-temperature group and high-temperature group was significantly higher than that in the model group(P＜0.05);the relative expression of OPN mRNA in the low-tem-perature group was significantly higher than that in the high-temperature group(P＜0.05).The relative expression of OC mRNA in the model group,low-temperature group and high-temperature group was significantly than that in the control group(P＜0.05);the relative expression of OC mRNA in the low-temperature group and high-temperature group was significantly higher than that in the model group(P＜0.05);there was no significant difference in the relative expression of OC mRNA between the low-temperature group and high-temperature group(P＞0.05).The relative expressions of RUNX2,OPN and OC protein the model group,low-temperature group and high-temperature group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05);the relative expressions of RUNX2 and OPN protein in the low-temperature group were significantly lower than those in the model group and high-temperature group(P＜0.05);the relative expression of OC protein was significantly lower than that in the high-temperature group(P＜0.05);and there was no siqnificantly difference in the relatiwe experesson of OC protein between the low-temperature group and model group(P＞0.05);the relative expressions of RUNX2,OPN and OC protein in the high-temperature group were significantly higher than those in the model group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The inhibitory effects of H2O2 on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation are observed in MC3T3-E1 cells;low-tempera-ture incubation can enhance the inhibition of H2O2 on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells,while high-temperature incubation can relieve its inhibitory effect on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation.RUNX2,OPN and OC protein might play an important role in cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation mediated by temperature.
