Objective To reconstruct tissue-engineered uterine patch similar to native endometrium and myotrium. Methods The purified rabbit uterine smooth muscle cells and stromal cells were mixed with liquid type Ⅰ collagen, and laid on mold respectively. Then the collagen-embedded cells were combined to create a cell complex, epithelial cells were inoculated on top of the complex, histological and immunohistochemical staining, and scanning electron microscopy were used to analyze the engineered uterine tissue. Results The engineered uterine tissues (EUTs) were reconstructed with isolated and cultured uterine smooth muscle cells, stromal cells and epithelial cells. After cultured for 14 days, histological and immunohistochemical analyses showed that the smooth muscle cells and stromal cells in the EUTs distributed evenly in the two layers and the majority of the cells, with elongated nuclei, stretched along the stretching direction. The morphology of EUTs resembled that of the native uterine tissue. In scanning electron microscopy, some epithelial cells protruded pinopodes. The surface of epithelial cells was covered abundantly with microvilli and some cells were ciliated. Conclusion Uterine smooth muscle cells and stromal cells were mixed with Liquid type Ⅰcollagen respectively, and epithelial cells were inoculated on top of the complex for generation of EUTs similar to the native uterine tissue.

[Objective]To explore the application of alcohol in unearthed medical literature,so as to provide reference for the clinical application of alcohol in modern Chinese medicine.[Methods]Based on the unearthed literatures such as Wushier Bingfang,Wuwei Medical Bamboo Slips of Han Dynasty,ZHOU Jiatai Medical Bamboo Slips of Qin Dynasty,Tianhui Medical Bamboo Slips and so on,combined with the relevant records in the handed down literature,the application of alcohol in the unearthed literatures was compared and summarized.[Results]Although there is no specific reason for the use of alcohol in the unearthed medical literature,a comprehensive analysis can be made from the related records in the contemporaneous literature.The analysis showed that in the pre-Qin,Qin and Han Dynasties,most of the alcohol was yellow wine,which was used in the way of alcohol mixing,alcohol decoction and impregnation,and was widely used in the treatment of various diseases.It is concluded that the alcohol has the effect of"changing the medicinal properties,direct to the disease""warming the channels and clearing the collaterals,removing blood stasis and relieving pain""correcting the odor,enhancing the drug effect"and so on.The application of alcohol in the later literature showed different characteristics in each period,but all developed on the basis of the application of alcohol in the Qin and Han Dynasties.[Conclusion]Alcohol has great potential in the clinical treatment of modern Chinese medicine,but the soaking and decocting time of alcohol for medicine,the effect of different temperatures is worth further study.

[Objective]To elucidate the meridian manipulations described in the Han bamboo slips of Zhangjiashan from a meridian perspective,providing a theoretical foundation for the application of ancient meridian manipulations in modern clinical practice.[Methods]Based on the records in the unearthed literature and cultural relics of the pre-Qin,Qin and Han Dynasties,this paper summarizes the Daoyin technique in the pre-Qin,Qin and Han Dynasties,explores the in-depth relationship between Daoyin technique and meridian muscles,and selects the common orthopedic diseases in modern clinic,such as neck pain,ankle pain,knee pain and shoulder pain,which are closely related to meridian muscles.The original text and Daoyin movements are analyzed,and the Daoyin movements are discussed from the perspective of meridian muscles.[Results]It is found that the Daoyin described in the pre-Qin,Qin and Han Dynasties is mainly simple body movements.The meridians described in the Book of Pulse are mostly meridiansand tendons,so the theory of meridians and tendons may be more suitable for the thinking of the physicians at that time.Using the theory of meridians and tendons to analyze the Daoyin in Yinshu,it is found that the Daoyin therapy for neck pain in the book should be mainly treated for the neck pain of the sun meridian muscles;the treatment of lateral ankle pain is mainly adjusted by the Shaoyang meridian muscles of the foot,and the treatment of medial ankle pain is mainly adjusted by the Taiyin meridian muscles of the foot;the Daoyin therapy for knee pain is used to adjust the meridian muscles of the six meridians of the foot;the treatment of shoulder pain,the use of"Yuanxing three hundred"to treat the shoulder pain caused by the Shaoyang and Yangming meridian muscles of the hand,the use of"Qianyuan"to treat the shoulder pain caused by the sun meridian muscle disease,the use of"Zhiluo"to treat the shoulder pain caused by the sun meridian muscle disease,and the use of"Houfu"to treat the shoulder pain caused by the Taiyin meridian muscle disease.It is more reasonable to explain the treatment principles of Daoyin using the theory of meridian sinew,which can further elucidate the treatment principles of Daoyin and clarify the corresponding disease indications for different Daoyin.[Conclusion]Looking at the Daoyin manipulations in Yinshu from the perspective of meridians and tendons can further clarify the diseases treated by Daoyin manipulation,make the treatment more accurate and effective,and provide more ideas for the clinical application of Daoyin manipulation in modern traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To validate gender-related differences in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).Methods:We used a method of combination of SEER database analysis and validation in our center. We selected 2 125 men (57.8%) and 1 552 (42.2%) women who underwent radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for UTUC between 1995 and 2015 within the surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registries (SEER). In male cases, the median age was 71(22-99)years old, median follow-up time was 53.0 (0-227) months, 902 (89.5%) cases were Caucasian, 1 384 cases (65.1%) were located in the renal pelvis, and 810(38.1%) cases were T 3-T 4. For female cases, the median age was 73.6(25-99)years old, median follow-up time was 53.1(0-226) months, 1 417(91.3%) cases were Caucasian, 1 043 cases (67.2%) were located in the renal pelvis, and 508 (32.7%) cases were T 3-T 4. The analysis of SEER database showed that female patients were older compared to male patients ( P=0.002), the proportion of T 3-T 4 was even lower ( P=0.028). There were no statistically significant differences in race, tumor location, and follow-up time between males and females (all P>0.05). We also enrolled 131 men (55.3%) and 106 women (44.7%) who underwent RNU for non-muscle invasive (T a/T is/T 1) UTUC between January 2000 and January 2015. These patients had no history of bladder cancer, UTUC and kidney transplantation. Preoperative cystoscopy was performed to confirm the absence of bladder tumor. The male group was (65.8±12.4)years old, with history of aristolochic acid medications in 7(5.3%) cases, 98 smoking cases (74.8%), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of (64.2±29.4)ml/(min·1.73 m 2). In the female group, mean age was (66.7±11.9)years, 14 (13.2%) cases had history of aristolochic acid medications, 16(15.1%) had history of smoking, eGFR (56.3±27.9) ml/(min·1.73m 2). Compared with female patients, male patients tended to had less aristolochic acids exposure (5.3% vs.13.2%, P<0.001), frequent smoking (74.8% vs. 15.1%, P<0.001) and better renal function ( P=0.036). The Kaplan-Meier test was used for time-to-event analysis. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were adopted to examine the effect of gender on the development of T 3-T 4 tumor. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to assess the roles of factors on overall survival (OS) in both SEER and cases in our center, and competing-risks regression model was used to assess the roles of factors on cancer-specific survival (CSS) in both SEER and cases in our center. Results:Multivariate logistic analysis showed that gendere represented an independent risk factor of T 3-T 4 UTUC development( OR=0.86, P=0.02). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that better OS and CSS for females only existed in the non-muscle invasive stages(5-year OS rates were 80.4% vs.87.3%, χ 2=31.0, P<0.001; 5-year CSS rates were 82.6% vs.89.2%, χ 2=31.2, P<0.001). In multivariate competing-risks regression models, no statistically significant differences in survival were observed between males and females ( HR=0.83, P=0.115). For the patients in our center, there were also no statistically significant differences existed in the non-muscle invasive stage between two genders on OS and CSS ( HR=0.93, P=0.071; HR=0.87, P=0.064). Conclusions:Females were less likely to have advanced pathological T stage. The differences on OS and CSS between males and females only existed in non-muscle invasive stage. However, after accounting for gender related factors, gender no longer had effects on UTUC prognosis.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of intra-articular platelet rich plasma combined with hyaluronic acid and platelet rich plasma alone in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.Methods:The relevant literatures published between January 2010 and December 2021 on the randomized control study of intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma and hyaluronic acid and injection of platelet rich plasma only in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis were searched. The bias risk of all the literatures included in the study was evaluated by Revman 5.3 software, and the data were processed and analyzed by Stata 16.0 software. The standardized mean difference ( SMD) was calculated for the difference of efficacy indexes, and the difference was compared by t- test. The odds ratio ( OR) was calculated for the difference of safety in-dex, and the difference was compared by t- test. Results:①A total of 7 relevant research literatures were in-cluded, all of which were in English. ②A total of 675 patients were included in the study, of which 330 patients were treated with intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma and hyaluronic acid, and 345 patients were treated with intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma only. ③The VAS scores of patients with platelet rich plasma and hyaluronic acid injection combined with injection and platelet rich plasma injection alone were compared. After 1 and 3 months of injection, the VAS scores of patients with platelet rich plasma combined with hyaluronic acid injection were compared with those of patients with platelet rich plasma injection only. There was no significant difference[ SMD(95% CI)=-0.02(-0.30, 0.27), t=-0.12, P=0.902; SMD(95% CI)=-0.40(-0.80, 0.00), t=-1.97, P=0.051]. After 6 months of injection, the VAS scores of patients with combined injection of platelet rich plasma and hyaluronic acid were significantly lower than those of patients with injection of platelet rich plasma only, and the difference was statistically significant [ SMD(95% CI)=-0.33 (-0.55, -0.11), t=-2.98, P=0.012]. ④The WOMAC scores of patients with combined injection of platelet rich plasma, hyaluronic acid and platelet rich plasma only were compared. After 12 months of treatment, the WOMAC scores of patients with combined injection of platelet rich plasma and hyaluronic acid were significantly higher than those of patients with PRP only, and the difference was statistically significant [ SMD(95% CI)=-0.30(-0.58, -0.03), t=-2.14, P=0.033]. ⑤The incidence of adverse events of platelet rich plasma combined with hyaluronic acid was lower than that of platelet rich plasma only [ OR(95% CI)=0.55(0.33, 0.93), P=0.021]. Conclusion:Compared with intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma only, the short-term clinical efficacy of combined injection of platelet rich plasma and hyaluronic acid is equivalent to that of injection of platelet rich plasma only, but the long-term clinical efficacy is significantly better, and the safety of combined injection of platelet rich plasma and hyaluronic acid is significantly better.
