Objective To retrospectively review clinical results of combined coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and other heart surgical procedures.Methods Combined CABG and other heart surgical procedures have been done in 134 consecutive cases (male 114, female 20), aged from 48 to 76 years with a mean of 61.7. Coronary angiograph showed that all patients have coronary stenosis with left main involved in 20 cases, and 41 cases have diffused coronary artery disease. 56 patients have post myocardial infarction left ventrical aneurysms, and 42 patients have valve dysfunction which need surgical correction. Left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) were equal to or lower than 45% in 63 patients and in 13 patients EF is less than 30%. All the patients received combined CABG under the support of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and other heart surgical procedures (Transmyocardial laser revascularization in 36, valve procedures in 42, and left ventricle aneurysm resection or plasty in 56 patients simultaneously). Results The mean number of grafts was 2.46 per patient. Intra-aortic balloon pump was required in 6 cases for 11 to 54 hours Postoperative. 3 patients died postoperatively with mortality rate 2.2% (two from low cardiac output syndrome, and one from multiple organs failure). 131 patients recovered and discharged.Conclusion Combined CABG and other heart surgical procedures in more demanding than CABG along but can be done with acceptable morbidity and mortality if good surgical plan can be designed and all the heart abnormalities can be corrected simultaneously.

BACKGROUND:Muscle transposition is a conventional method to treat muscle tissue defects,but it results in damage to another piece of muscle.For this reason,we designed this study to search for a method to in situ repair muscle tissue defects.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the conditions for in vitro induced differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem calls(BMSCs)into skeletal muscle cells.METHODS:Following isolation and culture,passage 3 BMSCs were induced to differentiate in vitro by a combination of5-azacytidine,myogenic differentiation factor,transforming growth factor β1,and insulin like growth factor.At 9 days after induction,cells were harvested and identified by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Primary cultured BMSCs exhibited an adherent,colony-like growth.After 5-7 days,multi-synaptic calls,thin and fiat polygonal cells,polygonal cells,and triangle-shaped cells were observed.After 12 days,calls confluenced and covered the whole bottom of culture flask,with slightly altered morphology of BMSCs.After 5-azacytidine induction,some calls died and grew slowly.After 7 days,cells markedly grew and soma was gradually enlarged,presenting with an oval,spindle-shaped,or irregular appearance.After 14 days,spindle-shaped calls become more.After 18-22 days,myotubes were increased in number and enlarged in volume,and myotube nucleuses were also increased.The newly formed myotubes and spindle-shaped fibroblasts were distributed in parallel interval.The immunohistochemistry of BMSCs revealed that cells were positive for CD44,with dark brown granules in the cytoplasm,especially around the nucleus,but they were negative for CD34.The immunohistochemistry of induced BMSCs demonstrated that calls were positive for desmin and skeletal muscle myosins.These findings indicate that myogenic differentiation factors and 5-azacytidine could induce the oriented differentiation of BMSCs into skeletal cells,with the presence of positive expression of desmin and skeletal muscle myosins.

Objective To design a new animal model for end-to-side anastomosis of peripheral nerves and analyze the efficiency. Methods The experiment involved 28 Wistar rats,of which the left legs were set as experimental group and the right ones as control group based on mode of nerve anastomosis.In experimental group,the tibial nerves were cut off for anastomosis of the proximal end of the tibial nerves with the distolateral side of the common peroneal nerve.While in control group,the common peroneal nerves were cut off to anostmose the distal end of the peroneal nerve with the distolateral side of the tibial nerves.Electrophysiological examination was done three months later to observe and compare wave amplitude,latent period and maximal wave amplitude at set stimulus volume in both groups and compare the fiber number at distal and proximal ends of the common peroneal nerves. Results There was no significant statistical difference in regard of amplitude,latent period and maximal wave amplitude in both groups.However,the fiber number at distal end of the stoma was much more than that at proximal end in the experimental group,with statistical difference(P

BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated that sphingosine-l-phosphate(S1P)can induce the differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells differentiation into smooth muscle cells.Whether S1P,rather than 5-azacytidine,can be used as an inducer of mesenchymal stem cells differentiation into cardiomyocytes remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the possibility that S1P promotes human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(HUMSCs)differentiation into cardiomyocytes in the presence of different culture media.METHODS: HUMSCs were cultured with cardiomyocyte conditional medium(CMCM)and/or SIP media.At 1,5,and 10 days of culture,morphological changes of HUMSCs were observed.After culture for 10 days,the induced cells were confirmed by immunocytochemical analysis and patch clamp in terms of cell phenotype and function.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: During the induction,some cells gradually enlarged,elongated,connected with adjacent cells,and formed myotube-like structures,and some cells congregated into cell clusters in the CMCM and CMCM+S1P groups.In the CMCM+S1P group,cells exhibited special perpendicular terrace-shaped,intercalated disc-like arrangement.Immunohistochemistry results revealed that some cells strongly express specific antibodies against sarcomeric myosin andα-actinin in the CMCM and CMCM+S1P groups.These findings suggest that HUMSCs can be induced to differentiate into cardiomyocytes.Through the use of patch clamp technique,a rapid ascending,but without plateau phase,action potential,a voltage dependent inward current,and a voltage dependent outward current were recorded in some cells from the CMCM+S1P group.These findings indicate that S1P plays a key role in promoting cardiomyogenic differentiation of HUMSCs and functional integration.

ObjectiveTo study the therapeutic effects of cerebellar fastigial nucleus electrical stimulation (FNS) on motor and depression symptoms and monoamine neurotransmitters in the spinal cord fluid of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods65 patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease following depression were divided into stimulation group (FNS+Madopar, n=35) and control group (Madopar, n=30). The stimulation group took Modopar, and treated with FNS, 30 miniutes once a day for 30 days. The control group took Modopar only. Madopar dose has no change during the treatment. The patients were evaluated by Webster Parkinson's Disease Evaluation Form, and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) before and after FNS treatment. The loading of monoamine neurotransmitters was measured by high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical process.ResultsAfter the treatment, the stimulation group improved in clinical feature and depression, scored significantly lower on Webster and HAMD than the control group(P<0.05); the loading of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) in spinal cord fluid increased; however noradrenalin and dopamine had no different. But there was no significant change in the symptoms and the loading of monoamine neurotransmitters in the control group.ConclusionFNS is efficient to relieve the motor and depression symptoms of PD, which possible mechamism might be central neuroprotection and the release of 5-HT by FNS induction.

Objective To assess the relationship between type 2 diabetes and the risk of kidney cancer. Methods PubMed, Medline, CNKI and VIP were used to identify studies which regarded the relationship between type 2 diabetes and risk of kidney cancer up to July 2014. The relative risks (RRs) and the corresponding 95% confidence interals (CIs) were used to estimate the association between type 2 diabetes and the risk of kidney cancer through software STATA. Results 8 studies were included in this analysis. Compared to the popula-tion without type 2 diabetes, there was an increased risk of kidney cancer in the type 2 diabetes patients, the pooled RR (95%CI) was 1. 55 (1. 24,1. 92),P<0. 05. Conclusion Our meta-analysis suggestes that type 2 diabetes can increase the risk of kidney cancer.
