BACKGROUND: The super-hydrophobic surface exhibits excellent super-hydrophobic property, which attracts more attention in anti-coagulation property study. However, the test result is differing from the expectation.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research status of super-hydrophobic effects on anti-coagulation.METHODS: The web of science database was retrieved with key words of "super-hydrophobic surface; blood compatibility; platelet adhesion; protein adsorption" to search papers concerning anti-coagulation property of super-hydrophobic surface. A total of 37 papers were initially searched by computer. According to the inclusive criteria, 20 papers were initially in this review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Through thorough analyzing different test methods of platelet adhesion used by present researchers, including in vitro static platelet adhesion, in vitro blood circulation experiments and in vivo animal experiments, we find that it may be not accurate and objective to obtain the conclusion of the super-hydrophobic surface possessing positive effect on anti-coagulation only by statically testing platelet adhesion in vitro. In order to confirm whether the super-hydrophobic luminal surface has anti-coagulating property, analysis of the blood deposition onto the luminal surface after in vitro circulation experiments and in vivo implantation experiments must be performed.

Objective To explore the nursing effects of self-care body posture in patients after modified radical mastectomy. Methods The clinical data of 102 patients with modified radical mastectomy were randomly divided into the study group and the control group, all patients met the following standard:clear consciousness, effective communication, no paralysis of limbs, no fracture. In the study group, according to Orem"self-care theory" concept, patients carried out self-care body posture with mainly focus on self-emancipated and the body center of gravity position, in the control group patients were given traditional posture care with mainly emancipated assistance. The first time getting out-of-bed, the occurrence of various complications, the comfort level of emancipation and posture, as well as nursing satisfaction on the first day after surgery were observed and compared between the two groups. Results The two groups showed significant difference in the first time out-of-bed, anxiety, the comfort level of emancipation and posture, as well as nursing satisfaction. There was no significant difference between the two groups in dizziness, limb swelling, flap effusion, flap necrosis. No pressure ulcer occurred. Conclusions Making use of self-care body posture in patients after modified radical mastectomy can improve the satisfaction and comfort of the patients, and improve the patients' recovery, without increasing the complication, which is worth promoting.

Objective To observe the effect of modified Qinghao Biejia Decoction ( QBD) on Th17 cells and renal pathology of MRL/lpr mice with spontaneous systemic lupus erythematosus. Methods Thirty-two female MRL/lpr mice aged 8 to 10 weeks were divided into 4 groups: model group, Chinese medicine group, prednisone group, and combination group, 8 mice in each group. Eight female C57BL/6 mice aged 8 to 10 weeks served as normal control. Mice in Chinese medicine group were given concentrated solution of modified QBD (19.25 g·kg-1·d-1), mice in the prednisone group were given water solution of prednisone acetate (8.75 mg·kg-1·d-1) , mice in the combination group were given the above two kinds of medicine, and mice in the model group and normal control group were given physiological saline. After medication for 7 weeks, spleens and kidneys in all of the groups were taken out for the experiment. Th17 cells in splenic mononuclear cell suspension were detected by flow cytometry, the pathological changes of renal tissue were observed under light microscope, and activity index (AI) of renal tissue in lupus nephritis mice was scored. Results The proportion of Th17 cells in the model group was significantly higher than that of normal control group ( P<0.05) . The proportion of Th17 cells in Chinese medicine group and combination group was lower than that of the model group ( P<0.05) , and prednisone group had higher proportion of Th17 cells than Chinese medicine group ( P<0.05) . Compared with the model group, pathological changes of renal tissue were relieved, and AI scores were decreased in Chinese medicine group, the prednisone group and the combination group ( P<0.05) . Except for the normal control group , AI scores in all groups were positively correlated with the proportion of Th17 cells ( r=0.77, P<0.01) . Conclusion Modified QBD can inhibit the expression of Th17 cells and improve the pathological changes of MRL/lpr mice with lupus nephritis.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of continuous blood purification (CBP) on acute pancreatitis (AP) and its influence on prognosis.Methods:200 patients with AP in our hospital from January 2010 to December 2016 were selected as the subjects,and they were divided into conventional treatment group and CBP treatment group according to the random number table method,600 cases in each group.The conventional treatment group was received conventional drug therapy,and the CBP treatment group was treated with CBP on the basis of commonly used drugs.The disappeared time of clinical symptoms after treatment and the changes of inflammatory factors and the changes of intestinal function before and 72 h after treatment were compared between the two groups,the mortality rate was compared between the two groups at 7 d after treatment.Results:Abdominal pain disappeared time,abdominal distension disappeared time and abdominal tenderness disappeared time in CBP treatment group after treatment were lower than the conventional treatment group (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the levels of endotoxin,C reactive protein (CRP),amylase (AMS),two amine oxidase and malondialdehyde before treatment in the two groups (P＞0.05).At 72 h after treatment,endotoxin,CRP,AMS,two amine oxidase and malondialdehyde levels were lower than those before treatment,and the CBP treatment group was lower than the conventional treatment group (P＜0.05).The mortality rate of CBP treatment group was lower than that of conventional treatment group at 7 d after treatment,the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusion:CBP can effectively improve the clinical therapeutic effect of AP,and improve the clinical prognosis of patients.

To establish vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) as secretary biomarkers for cell growth on topographic substrates, we have evaluated the secretion and expression of these 2 factors by SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells on poly-L-lactide (PLLA) micropillar arrayed topographic substrates. We fabricated topographic substrates with UV lithography, silicon etching and polydimethylsiloxane-based replica molding, and interfaced SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells with both the topographic substrates and PLLA flat substrates. Cell morphology and spreading were examined with scanning electron microscopy. The secretion and mRNA expression of VEGF and IL-8 were evaluated with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and real time qPCR, respectively, 24 hours after cell plating. We successfully achieved 4 topographic substrates with a nominal pillar diameter of 2 microm and 4 microm, and a nominal pillar spacing of 2 microm and 7 microm. We found that the secretion and mRNA expression of VEGF and/or IL-8 by SH-SY5Y cells on 2-2 microm (pillar diameter-spacing), 4-2 microm and 4-7 microm topographic substrates were upregulated in comparison to those by cells on PLLA flat substrate, 24 hours after cell plating. Furthermore, both cytokines were even more substantially upregulated on the 2-7 microm substrate than on the other 3 topographic substrates. Compared to those on PLLA flat substrate, cells on topographic substrates showed significant changes in morphology (spreading area, perimeter and roundness), and the increase in the secretion and mRNA expression of VEGF and IL-8 was accompanied with a decrease in cell spreading areas. These results provided evidence that pillar arrayed topography was an important microenvironmental factor in affecting VEGF and IL-8 expression or secretion, and VEGF and IL-8 might serve as important secretary biomarkers for growth on topographic substrates by SH-SY5Y cells.

OBJECTIVETo compare postoperative blood loss under different negative pressures of drainage after total hip arthroplasty for the treatment of femoral neck fractures.

METHODSFrom January 1st to December 30th 2013, 74 patients with femoral neck fractures treated with total hip arthroplasty were randomly divided into two groups: high negative pressure drainage group and low negative pressure drainage group. In high negative pressure drainage group, there were 34 cases including 10 males and 24 females, with a mean age of (75.94 ± 9.02) years old, and the patients were treated with 60 kPa negative pressure of drainage. In the low negative pressure drainage group, there were 40 cases including 13 males and 27 females, with an average age of (74.93 ± 8.90) years old, and the patients were treated with 30 kPa negative pressure of drainage. The amount of total drainage, total blood loss, and hemoglobin change were compared between these two groups.

RESULTSAll the patients got primary healing without infections. In high negative pressure drainage group,the change of hemoglobin was (41.74 ± 15.69) g/L, total blood loss was (1,217.73 ± 459.50) ml and the drainage volume was (312.94 ± 103.44) ml; while in low negative pressure drainage group,the results were (34.90 ± 12.90) g/L, (904.01 ± 381.58) ml and (129.25 ± 44.25) ml separately. All the results in high negative pressure drainage group were higher than those in the other group. Three days after operation, the change of hemoglobin was (46.00 ± 13.29) g/L and total blood loss was (1,304.72 ± 421.75) ml; while in low negative pressure drainage group, the changes of hemoglobin was (43.87 ± 11.39) g/L and total blood loss was (1,196.78 ± 344.20) ml; there were no statistically significant differences between two groups.

CONCLUSIONWhen placing drainage devices after total hip arthroplasty for the treatment of femoral neck fractures, the level of negative pressure should be chosen according to preoperative level of hemoglobin and HCT in patients. For old patients with femoral neck fracture, low negative pressure is more suitable.

Background and purpose: With the development of the means of preoperative diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, ifne needle puncture no longer seems to be popular with the clinical use. The safety and effectiveness of fine needle aspiration as preoperative diagnosis of breast cancer are controversial. This study was aimed to investigate the application of fine needle aspiration (FNA) of breast cancer and association between FNA and recurrence and metastasis for 30 years in our hospital. Methods:A total number of 1 260 patients with breast cancer treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 1975 to 2006 were reviewed in two groups for clinical characters, recurrence, and survival rate. The two groups were FNA and non-FNA. Results:The positive rate of FNA was 61.4%and the highest rate was inⅣstage (100%). StageⅡandⅢwere the major ones in FNA group (45.2%). The local recurrence (7.0%vs 6.4%), recurrence and metastasis (13.2%vs 14.0%), 5-year (82.0%vs 81.0%) and 10-year disease free survival rates (51.0%vs 64.0%) have no signiifcant difference between FNA and non-FNA groups. Conclusion:FNA is still one of the most important methods for preoperative investigation of breast cancer.
