Recently, the clinical trials of combined immunotherapy for advanced hepatocellular were completed successfully (Imbrave150, Keynote524), which have significantly increased the objective response rate and prolonged median overall survival time. The success of combined immunotherapy provides great potential and reality for subsequent surgical intervention of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Nowadays, the hot topics of combined immunotherapy include the choices of combined immunotherapy, the perioperative period determination, tumor immune microenvironment, and effective biomarkers of immunotherapy selection, and so on. This paper intends to summarize the above-related issues.

Objective To investigate if pretreatment with repeated electroacupuncture (EA) at Baihui acupoint could increase HSP 70 expression after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods Twenty male SD rats weighing 280-320 g were randomly divided into 2 equal groups of ten : control group received no pretreatment and EA group received pretreatment with EA at Baihui acupoint 30 min a day for 5 days. The animals in both groups were anesthetized with isoflurane. Right common carotid artery (CCA) , external and internal carotid artery (EGA, 1C A) were exposed through a longitudinal incision in the neck. EGA was ligated and a 3-0 nylon monofilament (Ethicon) with rounded tip was inserted into ICA and threaded cephalad until resistance was felt. In this way middle-cerebral artery was occluded for 120 min in both groups. The nylon filament was then withdrawn to allow reperfusion. The animals were allowed to recover. At the end of 24 h reperfusion, the animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital 40 mg?kg-1 and killed. Brain was immediately removed. Two pieces of brain tissue were obtained from right parietal lobe for microscopic examination (HE staining) and determination of expression of heat shock protein (HSP) 70 using immuno-histochemistry technique.Results In EA group the levels of HSP 70 expression were significantly increased (1.94?0.57) compared with those in control group (0.86?0.35) ( P

Objective:To obtain the optimal conditions for separating catalpol from leaves of Rehmannia by selecting appropriate macroporous adsorption resins.Methods:The detection indication was the content of catalpol, which was determined by HPLC method. Twelve different kinds of macroporous adsorption resins were studied on the static capacity of adsorption and desorption, and H103 resin was selected for the research of separation and purification.Results:The H103 resin had a good capacity for adsorption and desorption.The best process of purifying catalpol by H103 resin was 1mg/ml concentration, the adsorption rate of 1-2 BV/h,the flow rate of 1-3 BV/h, and 8 BV with 10% alcohol.Conclusion:The method is simple and available, which can simplify the production process and lower costs.

BACKGROUND:Kienb?ck disease lacks of suitable animal models, which are similar to the pathological process of avascular necrosis of human lunate bone.
OBJECTIVE:To establish a new animal model of Kienb?ck disease using medical TH adhesive embolism and to explore the rationality of model establishment.
METHODS:A total of 30 healthy adult New Zealand rabbits, male or female, were selected. Using self-control method, the rabbits were randomly assigned to experimental sides and control sides. By dril ing in the center of the lunate bone, 0.2 mL of medical TH glue was injected three times. An equal volume of physiological saline was injected into the center of the lunate bone on the control side. X-ray examination, general observation, Micro-CT measurement of bone, and tissue pathology detection were conducted at 4, 8 and 12 weeks.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Gross specimen, X-ray and histological results showed that ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone on the experimental side was visible at 8 weeks after model induction. The ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone became more typical at 12 weeks. Among the Micro-CT microscopic parameters of trabecular bone, trabecular bone density parameters bone volume fraction and the number of trabecular bone were significantly lower on the experimental side than those on the control side (P<0.05). Spatial parameters of trabecular bone significantly increased. Trabecular separation and structure model index on the experimental side were significantly greater than those on the control side. Results suggested that ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone appeared on the experimental side at 8 weeks after injection of medical TH glue. Rabbit models of ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone can be established at 12 weeks. Thus, alterations, which were similar to ischemic necrosis of human lunate bone, appeared, such as blood transportation damage in the lunate bone, trabecular bone fracture, and empty lacuna, when surrounding tissues were not obviously injured.

BACKGROUND:Single-row and double-row suture method are commonly used in the rotator cuff repair. Previous studies have shown that, double-row suture is not better than single-row suture in clinics.
OBJECTIVE:To compare clinical outcomes of single-row suture and double-row suture for rotator cuff repair, and evaluate the difference of therapeutic efficacy between two methods.
METHODS:A computer-based search was performed in the Medline (from January 2003 to February 2014), EMBASE (from January 2003 to February 2014) and Cochrane library (February 2014). According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, al the randomized control ed studies addressing the outcome of single-row repair and double-row repair techniques were included in this meta-analysis. The methodological quality of each study was judged and a meta-analysis was conducted using Revman5.0. The preoperative and postoperative differences between the Constant score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) score, the re-rupture rate and the muscle strength were compared. The forest chart was used to compare the data between two groups, and the funnel plot was finished to detect the publication bias.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 10 randomized control ed trials (Levels I, II) were included. Meta-analysis showed that, there was no statistical y significant difference in the Constant, ASES and UCLA scores in the double-row group and the single-row group before and after treatment. In the postoperative fol ow-up, double-row group had a lower re-rupture rate and a higher abductor muscle strength than single-row group. When the rotator cuff tear was less than 3 cm, double-row group had no significant difference with the single-row suture group. While in the over 3-cm tear group, double-row group showed better results than the single-row suture group on the Constant scpre, ASES score and UCLA score. Double-row suture has a low re-rupture rate than single-row suture in rotator cuff injury, and could achieve better abduction muscle strength. There is no significant difference in the functional score between double-row suture and single-row suture in the rotator cuff tear of less than 3 cm, while in the over 3-cm tear, double-row suture could achieve better functional score.

Objective To assess the vaIue of speckle tracking imaging (STI) in quantifying the regional myocardial strain in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) group.Methods ① Sixty subjects were divided into SLE group and normal group.High frame rate two-dimensional images were recorded from the apical two-chamber view,long-axis view and four-chamber view of the left ventricle (LV).Peak systolic strain of each view of 18 segments were measured by automated functional imaging (AFI) software of 2-DSE.All parameters were compared between the two groups.② Twenty cases were randomly taken from the normal group.The same observer at different times and two observers measure the strain of left ventricular respectively.The results of the measurement between the two groups were compared with unpaired t test and its relevance was analyzed using Pearson's correlation analysis.ResultsLeft ventricular two-dimensional longitudinal strain gradually increased from the base to apex in the normal group.There were statistically differences between the apical segments and the basal,middle segments of every left ventricular wall (P＜0.05).The same wall segment time to peak myocardial systolic peak strain was consistent.Left ventricular two-dimensional longitudinal strain gradually increased from the base to apex in the SLE group,except for the anterio-septal and anterior wall [ (-18.7±4.2)％,(-16.3±9.4)％,(-18.1±10.5)％ vs (-19.0±9.0)％,(-18.6±7.9)％,(-17.7±1.4)％ ].There was no statistically significant difference between the apical segments and the basal,middle segments of every left ventricular wall(P＞0.05).All parameters of S were significantly higher in the normal group than those of the SLE group.The difference was statistically signoficant (P＜0.05).The time to peak systolic peak strain of every segments was not consistent.The results from the same observer at different times and peak systolic myocardial strain measurements by the two observers were correlated well(P＜0.01).Conclusion The myocardial function assessment by STI technology in the SLE patients is significantly different from that of the normal control:SLE patients with left ventricular myocardial damage can be manifested as reduced regional myocardial systolic peak strain.
