AIM: To investigate the differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) into chondrocytes in vitro and determine factors involving in the differentiation process. METHODS: MSC were separated from iliac bone marrow with lymphocyte separating medium using density centrifugation. Cells were cultured and expanded in medium until reaching required number. MSC was induced to differentiate into chondrocytes by adopting high cell density, supplying growth factor and using micromass culture. Cells were observed by HE staining. Matrix of cartilage was detected by alcian blue and toludine blue and cartilage specific collagen II was detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: The structure of the micromass assumed that of cellular cartilage, alcian blue staining were uniformly positive and toludine blue detected diffuse metachromasia substance, cells uniformly expressed collagen Ⅱ. CONCLUSION: High cell density, growth factor and appropriate culture conditions are critical to induce differentiation of MSC into chondrocytes. [

Objective To explore the impact of different doses of dexmedetomidine on the anesthetic sedative and analgesic effect of anesthesia agents in hysterectomy of patients with uterine fibroids under laparoscopy.Methods 90 patients with uterine fibroids with ASA class Ⅰ or Ⅱ who were going to undergoing general intravenous anesthesia laparoscopic hysterectomy were selected and they were divided into group A (dexmedetomidine 0.4μg·kg-1·h-1,n=30) and group B (dexmedetomidine 0.2μg·kg-1·h-1,n=30) and group C (no dexmedetomidine,n=30) by digital random method.The analgesia effect (VAS score) of group A,group B and group C preoperation and postoperative 1h,12h and 24h,and the sedation (Ramsay sedation score) were compared.General information,postoperative blood pressure,heart rate,pulse oxygen saturation,postoperative patients'' satisfaction on analgesic effect and the sedation effect and adverse reactions of the three groups were also compared.Results Age,body mass index and other basic information of three groups had no statistically significant differences (all P＞0.05).The preoperative VAS score of the three groups also had no statistically significant difference (F=0.625,P＞0.05).Postoperative 12h,24h,the VAS scores of group A and group B were lower than those of C group,which of group A were lower than group B (F=11.250,P＜0.05,F=21.181,P＜0.05).The Ramsay sedation score was higher than that of C group[(3.67±0.18) vs.(2.13±0.11)].The satisfaction of group A was significantly higher than group B and group C (96.67％ vs.73.33％,46.67％,χ2=25.953).The Ramsay sedation score and satisfaction were higher than those of group B (all P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in blood pressure (F=0.362,P＞0.05),pulse oxygen saturation (F=0.978,P＞0.05) and heart rate among the three groups before and after operation (F=1.268,P＞0.05).There was no obvious adverse reaction in the three groups.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can promote anesthetic sedative and analgesic effect of anesthesia agents in hysterectomy of patients with uterine fibroids under laparoscopy,and the dose 0.4μg·kg-1·h-1 of dexmedetomidine has better effect,feasibility and safety,it is worthy of clinical promotion.

In an anti-thrombotic pressure circulatory device, relays and solenoid valves serve as core execution units. Thus the therapeutic efficacy and patient safety of the device will directly depend on their performance. A new type of testing system for relays and solenoid valves used in the anti-thrombotic device has been developed, which can test action response time and fatigue performance of relay and solenoid valve. PC, data acquisition card and test platform are used in this testing system based on human-computer interaction testing modules. The testing objectives are realized by using the virtual instrument technology, the high-speed data acquisition technology and reasonable software design. The two sets of the system made by relay and solenoid valve are tested. The results proved the universality and reliability of the testing system so that these relays and solenoid valves could be accurately used in the antithrombotic pressure circulatory equipment. The newly-developed testing system has a bright future in the aspects of promotion and application prospect.

Purpose To study the clinicopathologic features, differential diagnosis, immunophenotype and treatment and prognosis of adult intratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma ( ITRMS) . Methods One case of adult ITRMS was analyzed by histology and immunohisto-chemistry, the date of treatment and prognosis through electronic medical record. The published relevant literatures were reviewed. Re-sults A 19-years old male patient was admitted to the hospital with a history of 2-months testicular painless enlargement. Testis ultra-sound examination and scrotal and abdominal CT revealed a mass in right testis. Macroscopic observation of the testis showed that a grey-white tumor. The tunica albuginea, epididymis and spermatic cord hadn’ t been invaded by the tumor. Microscopically, medium-size oval or round cells were arranged in sheets, and spindle-shaped, strap-like, large-circle cells were also presented. Few large cells had abundant granular eosinophilic cytoplasm with crossstriations under oil immersion objective. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for vimentin, HHF35, desmin, MyoD1, Myogenin and h-Caldesmon protein, more than 50% neoplasm cells were positive. The rate of Ki-67 was 75%. Conclusions Adult ITRMS is rare. Histologically, embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma ( ERMS) is the most common type. They have highly invasive and poor prognosis. The accurate diagnosis depends on the combination of the histo-logic and immunohistochemical examination.

A case of Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the mandible was reported. A 34-year-old woman presented with pain for one year on the gingival of the low left jaw, and together with pyorrhea in the past 2 months. The histopathology and immunohistochemical examination confirmed the diagnosis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

Functional hubs with disproportionately extensive connectivities play a crucial role in global information integration in human brain networks. However, most resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (R-fMRI) studies have identified functional hubs by examining spontaneous fluctuations of the blood oxygen level-dependent signal within a typical low-frequency band (e.g., 0.01-0.08 Hz or 0.01-0.1 Hz). Little is known about how the spatial distributions of functional hubs depend on frequency bands of interest. Here, we used repeatedly measured R-fMRI data from 53 healthy young adults and a degree centrality analysis to identify voxelwise frequency-resolved functional hubs and further examined their test-retest reliability across two sessions. We showed that a wide-range frequency band (0.01-0.24 Hz) accessible with a typical sampling rate (f_sample = 0.5 Hz) could be classified into three frequency bands with distinct patterns, namely, low-frequency (LF, 0.01-0.06 Hz), middle-frequency (MF, 0.06-0.16 Hz), and high-frequency (HF, 0.16-0.24 Hz) bands. The functional hubs were mainly located in the medial and lateral frontal and parietal cortices in the LF band, and in the medial prefrontal cortex, superior temporal gyrus, parahippocampal gyrus, amygdala, and several cerebellar regions in the MF and HF bands. These hub regions exhibited fair to good test-retest reliability, regardless of the frequency band. The presence of the three frequency bands was well replicated using an independent R-fMRI dataset from 45 healthy young adults. Our findings demonstrate reliable frequency-resolved functional connectivity hubs in three categories, thus providing insights into the frequency-specific connectome organization in healthy and disordered brains.
