Objective To investigate the impact of human adipose-derived stem cells(hASCs) -plastelet-rich plasma(PRP) composite on the wound healing of radiation skin injury of nude mice.Methods ASCs were isolated from healthy adults after liposuction, conducted primary culture and subculture.PRP was prepared by two-step ultracentrifugation.The ASCs-PRP composite was prepared with ASCs (1 ×107cells/ml) at passage 6 and PRP.Twenty-four nude mice were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=6).A round shaped full-thickness skin defect (D=1cm) was made on the mice back after 20Gy (60Co) round shaped exposure (D=2cm).Right after radiation, wounds were treated as follows,in group A,there was ASCs+PRP, in group B, PRP,in group C, ASCs,in group D, sham group.The wounds were observed at postoperative 7 and 14 days.HE and CD31 stain were observed at 14th days after surgery.Results The wound healing of group A healed completely at 14th days.In group D,the wound healing were slowest and still filled with granulation tissue at 14th days.The wound healing of group B and group C were faster than that of group D, but they haven′t healed completely at 14th days.The inflammatory cells were significantly lower and the blood vessel density positive rate were significantly higher in ACSs+PRP group than in ACSs group,PRP group and sham group (P<0.05).Conclusion ASCs-PRP Composite can accelerate the wound healing of radiation skin injury by promoting wound angiogenesis.

Objective To establish a simple and effective method for isolation and culture of mouse adipose-derived stem cells (mASCs)in vitro,in order to provide the sufficient sources of seed cells for the research of mesenchymal stem cells.Methods The mouse inguinal fat tissues were isolated in vitro and performed a digestion with 0.1% collagenase type NB4,then adipose-derived stem cells(ASCs)were seeded and adhered to the culture dishes in low glucose DMEM containing 10% fetal calf serum.The cellu-lar morphology,in vitro proliferation capacity,multidifferentiation potential and immunophenotype were assessed.Results The mASCs showed good cell morphology,extremely strong proliferation capacity and potential of adipogenesis,osteogenesis and chon-drogenesis via in vitro three-dimensional induction.The cellular surface antigen phenotype was consistent with that reported by lit-erature,and the expression of CD34 and CD105 was positive,Sca-1 was highly expressed,CD45 and SSEA-1 were not expressed. Conclusion Using the experimental methods in this research can culture the high purity of mASCs with the excellent stem cell properties and extremely strong proliferative ability.

Objective To compare the diagnostic accuracy of magnifying chromoendoscopy (MCE) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for preoperative endoscopic assessment of the invasion depth of colorectal laterally spreading tumour(LST).Methods Data of 104 cases of colorectal LST were included.With the final pathological diagnosis as the golden standard,the accuracies of MCE and EUS for preoperative assessment of the invasion depth of colorectal LST were compared.Results The diagnostic accuracies of MCE and EUS for evaluating the invasion depth of LST were 89.4％ (93/104) and 73.1％ (76/104),respectively(P＜0.05).The lesion size and the endoscopist could affect the accuracy of the EUS evaluation (P=0.017,OR=3.561;P=0.035,OR =1.399).The accuracy of EUS seemed to show a downward trend for colorectal LST of larger diameters.Conclusion Both MCE and EUS are effective for evaluating the invasion depth of colorectal LST,but the accuracy of MCE may be higher than that of EUS.Large diameter of the lesion and the doctor's experience inadequacy may be the risk factors for the accuracy of EUS.

Objective: To investigate the role of HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 in cognitive impairment induced by neuronal damage. Methods: Western blot and immunofluorescence assay were used to detect microglia activation, inflammatory factor expression and neuronal damage after gp120 treatment. Neuronal damage and neurocognitive performance in gp120-transgenic mice were evaluated using immunohistochemical staining and behavioral analysis, respectively. Results: In vivo and in vitro experiments showed that HIV-1 gp120 significantly induced the expression of caspase-1 and IL-1β, and indirectly caused neuronal synaptic shortening and neuronal damage (P<0.05). Compared with wild-type mice, gp120-transgenic mice showed significant cortical and hippocampal glial activation, neuronal loss, dendritic damage and neurocognitive disorders. Conclusions HIV-1 gp120 might cause neuronal damage through activating the release of inflammatory factor by microglia and involve in neurocognitive impairment.

Objective:To compare the efficacy between laparoscopy and open surgery for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) larger than 2 cm.Methods:A multicenter retrospective cohort study was performed. Inclusion criteria: long diameter of primary gastric GIST > 2 cm; undergoing laparoscopy or open surgery; diagnosis confirmed by postoperative pathology without distant metastasis; without preoperative targeted therapy. Clinicopathological data of 857 gastric GIST patients, including 320 in PLA General Hospital, 284 in Shanghai Renji Hospital, 175 in Wuhan Union Hospital and 78 in Tianjin Cancer Hospital, from January 2010 to May 2017 were retrospectively collected. There were 418 males and 439 females, mainly aged between 50 and 70 years old. Among 857 patients, 413 were in the laparoscopy group and 444 in the open group. The nearest neighbor matching of propensity score matching method was conducted with 1:1 matching based on tumor location and size between laparoscopy and open group to obtain samples of covariate equilibrium, and the caliper value was 0.04. The t test, χ 2 test and Wilcoxon rank test were used to compare short-term efficacy, and the Kaplan-Meier curve and log rank test were applied to compare long-term outcomes between the two groups. Results:After propensity score matching, laparoscopy group and open group both enrolled 293 cases. The baseline data, including age, gender, tumor location, tumor long diameter, NIH classification, etc. were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). Compared with the open group, the laparoscopy group had less intraoperative blood loss [<100 ml: 2.9% (155/293) vs. 36.2% (106/293), Z=-12.857, P<0.001], shorter time to postoperative feeding [(4.0±0.2) days vs. (5.3±0.9) days, t=1.505, P=0.003] and to the removal of drainage tube [(4.8±1.0) days vs. (6.5±1.0) days, t=1.847, P=0.008], and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(8.6±0.3) days vs. (10.5±0.3) days, t=4.235, P<0.001]. Subgroups analysis according to anatomical location: (1) Gastric cardia and pylorus: there were no statistically significant differences in perioperative parameters between the two groups (all P>0.05). (2) Stomach base: feeding time after surgery [(4.0±0.2) days vs. (4.5±0.2) days, t=0.512, P=0.038], drainage tube removal time [(5.1±0.4) days vs. (6.4±0.6) days, t=0.517, P=0.044], postoperative hospital stay [(8.0±0.5) days vs. (11.1±0.9) days, t=0.500, P=0.002] were all significantly shorter in the laparoscopy group as compared to the open group, while the differences in other perioperative parameters were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). (3) Lesser curvature of the stomach: the laparoscopy group had less intraoperative blood loss [<100 ml ratio: 58.1% (43/74) vs. 33.7% (25/74), Z=7.632, P=0.034], shorter gastric tube removal time [(2.7±0.2) days vs. (3.2±0.3) days, t=0.503, P=0.007], earlier postoperative passage of gas [(2.8±0.1) days vs. (3.4±0.2) days, t=0.532, P=0.030], earlier postoperative feeding [(3.6±0.2) days vs. (4.3±0.2) days, t=0.508, P=0.020], shorter drainage tube removal time [(4.2±0.4) days vs. (5.7±0.5) days, t=0.508, P=0.020] and postoperative hospital stay [(8.3±0.6) days vs. (10.7±0.3) days, t=0.502, P=0.006] as compared to the open group. (4) Great curvature of the stomach: the laparoscopy group presented less intraoperative blood loss [<100 ml ratio: 52.7% (39/74) vs. 36.5% (27/74), Z=7.681, P=0.032], earlier gastric tube removal [(2.6±0.2) days vs. (3.6±0.2) days, t=0.501, P=0.001], earlier postoperative passage of gas [(2.7±0.2) days vs. (3.4±0.2) days, t=0.501, P=0.016], earlier postoperative feeding [(3.6±0.2) days vs. (4.7±0.2) days, t=0.500, P=0.001], shorter drainage tube removal time [(4.0±0.5) days to (5.9±0.4) days, t=0.508, P=0.002] and postoperative hospital stay [(7.5±0.3) days to (9.5±0.1) days, t=0.500, P=0.001] than the open group. Subgroup analysis according to tumor size: (1) Tumor long diameter 2.0-5.0 cm: the laparoscopy group had earlier passage of gas [(2.9±0.1) days vs. (3.5±0.1) days, t=0.500, P=0.001], earlier postoperative feeding [(4.5±0.1) days vs. (5.0±0.2) days, t=0.501, P=0.013], shorter drainage tube removal time [(4.8±0.3) days vs. (6.0±0.3) days, t=0.511, P=0.008] and postoperative hospital stay [(8.1±0.4) days to (10.1±0.3) days, t=0.513, P=0.001] than the open group. (2) Tumor long diameter 5.1-10.0 cm: in the laparoscopic group, postoperative feeding time [(4.0±0.2) days vs. (4.7±0.2) days, t=0.506, P=0.015], drainage tube removal time [(4.6±0.4) days vs. (6.4±0.5)) days, t=0.501, P=0.004], postoperative hospital stay [(8.2±0.3) days vs. (10.9±0.6) days, t=0.500, P=0.001] were all shorter than those in the open group. No intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed in each group. The 5-year recurrence-free survival rates of the laparoscopy group and the open group were 95.4% and 91.6%, respectively ( P=0.734), and the 5-year overall survival rates were 93.8% and 90.8% ( P=0.691), respectively, and the differences were not statistically significant. Conclusions:In experienced medical centers, laparoscopic surgery for gastric GIST larger than 2 cm is safe and feasible, and can achieve comparable efficacy with open surgery. For gastric GISTs which do not locate in the greater curvature and the anterior wall of the stomach, and whose long diameter is ≤5 cm, laparoscopic surgery does not increase the risk of recurrence and metastasis, and can accelerate postoperative recovery.

Objective To observe the characteristics of infant biliary atresia(BA)missed diagnosis by ultrasound.Methods Data of 72 BA infants missed by ultrasound(false-negative,group A),72 BA infants accurately diagnosed by ultrasound(true-positive,group B)and 72 non BA infants(controls,group C)were retrospectively analyzed.Clinical and ultrasonic features were compared between each 2 groups.Logistic regression analysis was performed to screen the impact factors for diagnosing and missed-diagnosing of BA.Results There were significant differences of total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,gamma glutamyl transpeptidase(GGT)and glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase(GOT)between group A and C,also of total bilirubin,direct bilirubin and GGT between group B and C(all P＜0.05).Significant differences of the incidences of small gallbladder,gallbladder wall rigidity,poor gallbladder contraction function and fibrous plaques in the hepatic hilum were found between group A and B,of undetected or cystic changes in the gallbladder,gallbladder wall rigidity,poor gallbladder contraction function,fibrous plaques in the hepatic hilum and hepatic hilum cysts were noticed between group A and C(all P＜0.05),as well as of undetected or cystic changes in the gallbladder,small gallbladder,gallbladder wall rigidity,gallbladder wall thickening,poor gallbladder contraction function and fibrous plaques in the hepatic hilum were detected between group B and C(all P＜0.05).There were significant differences of display rate of common bile duct between each 2 groups(all P＜0.05).The lower incidence of fibrous plaques in the hepatic hilum and poor gallbladder contraction function were an impact factors for missed diagnosis of BA(both P＜0.05),while higher GGT,higher incidence of fibrous plaques in the hepatic hilum and poor gallbladder contraction function were all impact factors for diagnosis of BA in group A(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Infant BA missed diagnosis by ultrasound had lower incidence of fibrous plaques in the hepatic hilum and poor gallbladder contractile function.Combining with clinical data was helpful for reducing ultrasonic missed diagnosis of BA in infants.

Objective:To elucidate the current proficiency level in diagnosing pediatric biliary atresia among Chinese sonographers and to identify contributing factors that may influence their diagnostic capabilities.Methods:A cross-sectional internet-based survey was conducted from November 6, 2021, to December 12, 2021. The online questionnaire was disseminated to a national cohort of sonographers via WeChat groups. The survey encompassed three domains: demographic data of the participants, clinical and ultrasonographic knowledge pertaining to biliary atresia, and the cognitive understanding of biliary atresia. Descriptive statistics were utilized for the evaluation of demographic information and sonographers' clinical and ultrasonographic comprehension concerning biliary atresia. A generalized linear model was employed to ascertain the determinants influencing sonographers' expertise in clinical management and ultrasonographic diagnosis of biliary atresia.Results:A total of 511 valid responses were collated. Approximately 64.77% (331/511) of sonographers indicated a lack of comprehensive understanding of the essential parameters for ultrasonographic diagnosis of biliary atresia. Regression analysis revealed that sonographers affiliated with lower-tier hospitals ( β=-0.344, P=0.002), non-pediatric institutions ( β=-0.747, P=0.004), and those with less than 15 years of professional experience ( β=0.952, P<0.001) exhibited diminished proficiency in diagnosing biliary atresia. Upon encountering suspected cases, a mere 5.48% (28/511) of sonographers expressed complete confidence in their diagnostic capabilities. Lower professional grade ( β=-0.572, P<0.001) and lack of prior experience with suspected cases of biliary atresia ( β=-0.693, P<0.001) contributed to reduced diagnostic self-assurance among sonographers. Regarding the clinical and ultrasonographic intricacies associated with biliary atresia, only 3.33% (17/511) of sonographers had a full understanding of the diagnostic significance of hepatic fibrous plaques on ultrasound for biliary atresia. Conclusion:The study underscores a pervasive inadequacy in the understanding and diagnostic confidence among sonographers in relation to pediatric biliary atresia. Various pragmatic factors, including hospital tier, years of experience, and professional ranking, exert a direct impact on the sonographers' diagnostic acumen. Given these findings, there is an exigent need for targeted educational initiatives to enhance the diagnostic proficiency in biliary atresia among sonographers.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of restless leg syndrome (RLS) in hemodialysis patients after kidney transplantation failure.Methods Patients of hemodialysis after kidney transplantation failure were investigated by face-to-face interviews,from March to July,2015,at four dialysis units in Beijing.RLS was diagnosed according to the International RLS Study Group (IRLSSG) criteria.The severity of RLS was assessed using International RLS Rating scale.Besides,three validated sleep disorder questionnaires (Hamilton anxiety and depression scale,Epworth sleepiness scale and Pittsburgh sleep quality index) were completed by the patients at the same time.Results Ninety-four hemodialysis patients after kidney transplantation failure were enrolled;46 patients (48.94％) met the diagnosis of RLS,the average age was 53.44±l 1.89 years,and the median time of RLS onset after kidney transplantation failure was 46 months.The International RLS Rating scale scores of the patients were 17.26±7.81;76.0％ patients were above moderate.As compared with the non-RLS patients,patients with RLS used more erythropoietin (44/48 vs.46/46),less ferrila (30/48 vs.19/46),and few hypnotic medicine (10/48 vs.3/46),with significant differences (P＜0.05).The serum ion,serum ferritin and serum Vitamin B12 of patients with RLS were significantly lower as compared with non-RLS patients (P＜0.05);and poorer sleep quality and higher depression scale scores in the patients with RLS were noted as compared with those in the non-RLS patients (P＜0.05).Conclusion The prevalence of RLS in hemodialysis patients after kidney transplantation failure is high,low iron protein content,low serum iron content and low vitamin B12 levels may be risk factors for RLS.

Conclusions:In experienced medical centers, laparoscopic surgery for gastric GIST larger than 2 cm is safe and feasible, and can achieve comparable efficacy with open surgery. For gastric GISTs which do not locate in the greater curvature and the anterior wall of the stomach, and whose long diameter is ≤5 cm, laparoscopic surgery does not increase the risk of recurrence and metastasis, and can accelerate postoperative recovery.

Objective To study the pharmacokinetics of raltitrexed using different ways of drug delivery, including femoral venous infusion, hepatic artery perfusion, hepatic artery injection of lipiodol suspension, hepatic artery perfusion followed by embolization with Gelfoam. Methods According to the administration way of raltitrexed, a total of 40 New Zealand rabbit models with VX2 liver tumor were randomly divided into group A (femoral venous perfusion), group B (hepatic arterial perfusion), group C (hepatic artery injection of lipiodol suspension), and group D(hepatic artery perfusion followed by embolization with Gelfoam). Drug concentration in plasma were determined by using LC-MS/MS method and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. Results After administration of raltitrexed, the Tmax was 5 minutes in all 4 groups. In group A, B, C and D, the values were (5.88±1.39), (7.31±2.60), (9.86±5.10) and (7.19±2.27) respectively, with group C having the longest t1/2 value, which was significantly different with that of group A (P＜0.05); the (ng·ml-1·h-1) values were (2 056.40± 139.17), (1 389.21±180.28), (911.84±105.62) and (1 133.41±181.42)respectively, with the value of group A being obviously higher than that of group B, C and D (P＜0.05) and the value of group C being the lowest; the AUC0-t(ng· ml-1·h-1) values were (5 482.72±1 007.07), (4 156.99±1 475.77), (2 785.13±1 107.36) and (3 903.64±947.25) respectively, with the value of group A being remarkably higher than that of group B, C and D (P＜0.05) and the value of group C being the lowest. Conclusion Compared with the femoral vein infusion way, the ways of hepatic artery infusion, hepatic artery lipiodol suspension injection and hepatic artery perfusion followed by embolization with Gelfoam may promote more raltitrexed to deposit in the tumor area, thus, the curative effect is enhanced, the drug concentration in plasma is lowered and the side effects are alleviated.
