Objective To compare clinical efficacy between the situ secondary spleen pedicle amputation in laparoscopic splenectomy and open splenectomy for traumatic spleen rupture.Methods From January 2013 to June 2015 a total of 70 patients with splenic rupture undergoing splenectomy were devided into laparoscopic surgery (35 cases) and open surgery (35 cases) group.Clinical data included total intraoperative blood loss,the time spent on splenic artery ligation,total operation time,postoperative drainage volume,postoperative hemoglobin,platelet and albumin levels,time of anal exsufflation,hospital stay and postoperative complications.Results The average operation time in the OS group was shorter than that in LS group (P ＜ 0.05).However,LS group was better than the OS group in splenic artery ligation time,postoperative drainage volume,anus aerofluxus time,postoperative platelet count,postoperative albumin recovery,hospital stay and postoperative complications (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The laparoscopic splenectomy by the amputation of in situ secondary spleen pedicle for traumatic spleen rupture has the advantages of a rapid recovery and a low postoperative complication.

Objective To explore and evaluate the application value of damage control theory in bilateral craniotomy operation of severe craniocerebral trauma.Methods Seventy patients with Glasgow coma scale score ≤ 5 scores were divided into 2 groups by random digits table method with 35 cases each:standard trauma craniotomy group (normal group),non-standard craniotomy and small dural window exposure strategy group (improved group).The clinical data were compared.Results There was no significant difference in postoperative cerebral tissue bone window embedded meal,large area cerebral infarction incidence rate between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).There was significant difference in the duration of surgery,blood transfusion amount within 24 hours,traumatic epileptic seizure within 1 month,the acute intraoperative encephalocele between normal group and improved group [(2.80 ± 0.63) h vs.(4.21 ± 1.04) h,(3.90 ± 1.02) U vs.(5.55 ± 1.32)U,14.3％(5/35) vs.48.6％(17/35),5.7％(2/35) vs.25.7％(9/35)] (P ＜0.05).Followed up for 6 months,good prognosis,moderate disability,severe disability,vegetative state,death was 4,4,8,6,13 cases in normal group and 8,9,5,4,9 cases in improved group,and there was significant difference (x2 =5.040,P =0.025).Conclusion Severe craniocerebral trauma bilateral craniotomy damage is bigger,damage control theory to guide the improved operation method,can improve the rescue efficiency.

Objective:To evaluate the prognostic value of post-mastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) in patients with axillary lymph node-positive breast cancer treated with breast conservation surgery and to establish the candidates for PMRT based on different pN stages and lymph node ratios (LNR). Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of the patients was conducted. The pa-tients had positive lymph nodes (n=152) between 1998 and 2007 and underwent breast conservation surgery. A comparison of the dis-ease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rates was conducted based on LNR and pN staging and with PMRT as a prognostic factor. Results:A total of 152 cases were studied, of which 114 were pN1, 23 were pN2, and 15 were pN3. Among these cases, 114 had an LNR ranging from 0.01 to 0.20, 26 had an LNR from 0.21 to 0.65, and 12 had an LNR>0.65. Univariate analysis showed that the number of dissected lymph nodes, LNR, pN stage, estrogen and progesterone receptor status, and radiotherapy were the prognostic fac-tors for DFS and OS rates (P<0.05). Age and chemotherapy were prognostic factors only for OS rate (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis in-dicated that PMRT and LNR were independent prognostic factors of DFS and OS (P<0.05). The pN staging had no significant effect on DFS or OS (P>0.05). In the subgroup analysis, PMRT had significant effect on DFS and OS (P<0.05) in patients with pN1 and LNR<0.21. Conclusion:LNR is an independent prognostic factor in axillary lymph node-positive breast cancer patients treated with breast conservation surgery, and a candidate for PMRT should be established based on different LNR risks.

Axillary reverse mapping (ARM) is a technique used to map and preserve arm lymphatic drainage during axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and/or sentinel lymph node dissection (SLND). As a result, the risk of arm lymphedema is reduced. ARM is an emerging technology for breast cancer surgery and currently in the clinical trial phase. In this article, related clinical trials conducted in recent years were reviewed and the displaying methods of ARM lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels were analyzed. The feasibility of retained ARM lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels was also evaluated. Furthermore, the clinical significance of ARM was evaluated in terms of the reduction of the incidence of upper extremity lymphedema after breast cancer surgery.

The overexpression of proto-oncogene protein c-pim-1 (Pim-1) in tumor tissue is related to the stage and prognosis.Recent studies indicate that Pim-1 plays a critical role in the proliferation and apoptosis of cells and the metastasis of tumor.Pim-1 acts as an essential factor in several signaling pathways and its expression and activation are regulated by many factors as well as affects others widely.As an influential factor in the occurrence and development of tumor,Pim-1 has been a potential target in oncotherapy.

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that adipose-derived stem cells have pluripotent differentiation potential, but only 30%-40% of cells can differentiate into mature adipocytes with low adipogenic differentiation potential. Therefore, how to improve the adipogenic differentiation ability of adipose-derived stem cells is a key problem to be solved in the process of soft tissue regeneration. OBJECTIVE: To observe the relationship between the surface marker CD54 of rabbit adipose-derived stem cells and their adipogenic capacity, and to explore the adipogenic differentiation of CD54+/CD54- adipose-derived stem cells underthe same induction. METHODS: We successfully isolated and cultured the adipose-derived stem cells from inguinal subcutaneous fat pads (3 ml) of New Zealand white rabbits, aged 8-12 weeks, which were induced into multi-differentiation and used to detectsurface markers. We sorted the passage 3 adipose-derived stem cells by immunomagnetic beads and divided into two categories including CD54+ and CD54- adipose-derived stem cells. After 14 days of adipogenic induction, the cells in the two groups were subjected to oil red O staining and were compared by detecting the density of mature adipocytes and lipid droplet contenT.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The cultured adipose-derived stem cells possessed the characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells that could differentiate into mature adipocytes, osteoblasts and chondrocytes, with CD29, CD44, CD49d, CD54, CD73, CD90 and CD105 positive expression while CD31, CD34 and CD45 negative expression. Fourteen days after adipogenic induction, the density of mature adipocytes and the intracellular lipid droplet content in the CD54+ group were significantly higher than those in the CD54- group (P < 0.05). We also found that the mRNA expressions of PPARγ,ADD1, C/EBPα related to adipogenic differentiation in the CD54+ group were significantly higher than those in the CD54- group (P < 0.05). Taken together, CD54+ adipose-derived stem cells have excellent adipogenic differentiation capacity.

Objective:To retrospectively evaluate the prognostic risk factors of T1-2 stage breast cancer patients with one to three positive node(s) and their effects on the benefits of post-mastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT). Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 457 breast cancer patients with T1-2 stage and one to three positive axillary lymph nodes treated in our hospital between 2000 and 2002. The independent prognostic factors of the patients were calculated by the Cox proportional hazards model. The patients were fur-ther classified into high-risk and low-risk subgroups according to the risk factors to explore the benefit of PMRT on the prognosis of dif-ferent subgroups using survival analysis. Results:PMRT was not an independent beneficial factor of overall survival (OS) (HR=0.949;CI:0.435-2.074;P=0.896) or loco-regional recurrent free survival (LRRFS) (HR=0.611;CI:0.231-1.614;P=0.320) in all patients. Ex-tracapsular extension (ECE) and pathological grades were independent prognostic risk factors, and the benefits of PMRT were signifi-cantly different on the prognosis of high-risk subgroup patients (group ECE+OS:P=0.020, LRRFS:P=0.014;group GradeⅢOS:P=0.002, LRRFS:P<0.001). Meanwhile, PMRT failed to prolong the OS and LRRFS of low-risk subgroup patients (group ECE+OS:P=0.353, LRRFS:P=0.796;group GradeⅠtoⅡOS:P=0.267, LRRFS:P=0.589). Conclusion:ECE and gradeⅢwere the independent risk factors of death and loco-regional recurrence in the T1-2 breast cancer patients with one to three positive lymph node(s). PMRT was an effective adjuvant therapy to improve the prognosis of patients with high-risk factors. However, the benefit of PMRT had no sig-nificance in patients with ECE-or gradeⅠ-Ⅱ.

Objective: To explored the effect of stromal cell-derived factor 1α (SDF-1α) on promoting the migration ability of rat adipose derived stem cells (rADSCs) by constructed the rADSCs overexpression SDF-1α via adenovirus transfection. Methods: rADSCs were isolated from adipose tissue of 6-week-old SPF Sprague Dawley rats. Morphological observation, multi-directional differentiations (osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic inductions), and flow cytometry identification were performed. Transwell cell migration experiment was used to observe and screen the optimal concentration of exogenous SDF-1α to optimize the migration ability of rADSCs; the optimal multiplicity of infection (MOI) of rADSCs was screened by observing the cell status and fluorescence expression after transfection. Then the third generation of rADSCs were divided into 4 groups: group A was pure rADSCs; group B was rADSCs co-cultured with SDF-1α at the best concentration; group C was rADSCs infected with recombinant adenovirus-mediated green fluorescent protein (Adv-GFP) with the best MOI; group D was rADSCs infected with Adv-GFP-SDF-1α overexpression adenovirus with the best MOI. Cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) and Transwell cell migration experiment were preformed to detect and compare the effect of exogenous SDF-1α and SDF-1α overexpression on the proliferation and migration ability of rADSCs. Results: The cell morphology, multi-directional differentiations, and flow cytometry identification showed that the cultured cells were rADSCs. After screening, the optimal stimulating concentration of exogenous SDF-1α was 12.5 nmol/L; the optimal MOI of Adv-GFP adenovirus was 200; the optimal MOI of Adv-GFP-SDF-1α overexpression adenovirus was 400. CCK-8 method and Transwell cell migration experiment showed that compared with groups A and C, groups B and D could significantly improve the proliferation and migration of rADSCs ( P<0.05); the effect of group D on enhancing the migration of rADSCs was weaker than that of group B, but the effect of promoting the proliferation of rADSCs was stronger than that of group D ( P<0.05). Conclusion: SDF-1α overexpression modification on rADSCs can significantly promote the proliferation and migration ability, which may be a potential method to optimize the application of ADSCs in tissue regeneration and wound repair.

Objective To study the changes of plasma endotoxin and procalcitonin in patients with esophagogastric varices and provide a theoretical basis for prophylactic antibiotics after endoscopic treatment. Methods Fifty cases of patients with esophageal and gastric varices accepted the endoscopic treatment.The patients were divided into antibiotic group (32 cases)and non-antibiotic group (18 cases).The plasma endotoxin and procalcitonin were measured before and on the first day and 7th day after endoscopic treatment.Results The plasma levels of endotoxin and procalcitonin were not significantly different on the first and 7th day after endoscopic treatment compared with preoperative levels in antibiotic group.But in non-antibiotic group,the levels significantly increased on 7th day after endoscopic treatment compared with preoperative levels (P <0.05).And in patients of Child-Pugh A grade,the level of plasma procalcitonin significantly increased on 7th day after endoscopic treatment compared with preoperative levels (P <0.01), but the procalcitonin was not significantly different on the first and 7th day after operation.And in patients of Child-Pugh B and C grades,the levels of plasma endotoxin and procalcitonin significantly increased on the 7th day(P <0.01).Conclusion The levels of plasma endotoxin and procalcitonin in non-antibiotic group increase after endoscopic treatment,which suggests the risk of infection.Prophylactic antibiotics after endo-scopic treatment should be considered for the patients of Child-Pugh B and C grades.
