Chinese Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2009;17(1):45-48
Objective To investigate the nutrition support during stress response period after tumor ex-tirpation in middle-aged and elderly patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors. Methods Sixty patients who had undergone maxillofacial tumor extirpation were randomly divided into nutrition therapy group (n = 35) and control group ( n = 25 ). Patients in nutrition therapy group received enteral nutritional treatment, while patients in control group fed themselves. The nutritional status of the two groups before operations were evaluated with Concise Nutritional Assessment Indicators of human body measurement and biochemistry were used to evaluate the nutritional conditions. The incidence of post-operational complications and recovery time ( from the operation to discharge) were analyzed. Results The weight and arm muscle circumference in the nutrition therapy group significantly decreased after operations (P <0. 05). However, in the control group, all the nutritional indica-tors except the total lymphocyte count were significantly lower than the baseline levels after operations (P < 0. 05 ) ; particularly, of the average body weight decreased by about 6 kg. The incidence of complications in the nutrition therapy group was significantly lower than that in control group (5. 7% vs. 12. 0% , P <0. 05). The recovery time was significantly longer in the control group than that in the nutrition therapy group [ (28. 62± 2.38) vs. (22. 76± 3. 24) d, P < 0. 01 ]. Conclusion The nutritional support during the stress response period can satisfy the demands of high catabolism after maxillofacial tumor extirpation operation in middle-aged and elderly patients.

Objective:To establish the model of apoptosis of activated human ??T cells induced by restimulating with Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen(Mtb-Ag). To investigate the roles of p38 and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase(PI3K) pathways in the apoptosis of activated human ??T cells induced by restimualting wih Mtb-Ag.Methods:Mtb-Ag activated human T cells(MtbAT) were cultured for 15 days to 25 days and restimulated with three concentrations of Mtb-Ag for 24 hours, and the apoptosis of ??T cells were measured by flowcytometry(FCM) using Annexin-V-FITC/PI staining. Mtb-AT were restimulating with Mtb-Ag(10 ?g/ml) for 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours, the apoptosis of ??T cells were detected. Mtb-AT cells were pretreated with SB203580(an inhibitor for p38 pathway), or LY294002(an inhibitor for PI3K pathway) for 60 minutes, and restimulating with Mtb-Ag for 3 hours, the apoptosis of ??T cells were detected.Results:Both 10.0 and 20.0 ?g/ml Mtb-Ag significantly induced the apoptosis of ??T cells(P0.05). Compared with control, the apoptosis of ??T cells could be significantly induced by restimulating MtbAT with Mtb-Ag(10.0 ?g/ml) for 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours(P0.05) in the percentages of apoptosis of ??T cells restimulated by Mtb-Ag(10.0 ?g/ml) between for 3 hours and for 24 hours, the percentages of apoptosis of the latter is higher than the former about 7.55%. The apoptosis of ??T cells induced by restimualting wih Mtb-Ag could be inhibited by SB203580(80.0 ?mol/L) or LY294002(10.0 ?mol/L), the inhibition rate of apoptosis was 91.6% and 43.1%, respectively.Conclusion:We established the model of apoptosis of activated human ??T cells by means of using Mtb-Ag(10.0 ?g/ml) to restimulate activated ??T cells for 3 hours. The test of inhibitors of signalling molecule suggested the signalling pathways including p38 and PI3K, participated in the apoptosis of activated human ??T cells restimulated by Mtb-Ag.

Purpose To study NF-κB gene expression level in mouse hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines with differently lymphatic metastasis potentials and to discuss its roles in lymphatic metastasis.Methods Using real-time quantitative PCR, NF-κB gene expression level was detected in mouse hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, including Hca-P with low lymphatic metastasis potential and Hca-F with high lymphatic metastasis potential.Results NF-κB mRNA expression in Hca-P and Hca-F cell lines were (1.41±0.48)×10~(-3),and (2.95±0.22)×10~(-3) (P<0.01),respectively.NF-κB mRNA expression levels were increased with metastasis potential.Conclusion NF-κB gene may play an important role in lymphatic metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To provide anatomical basis for the free saphenous branch of descending genicular artery flap and evaluate its clinical outcomes for the hand soft-tissue defects. Methods Fifteen fresh cadavers injected with lead oxide-gelatin mixture for three-dimensional visualization reconstruction using a spiral computed tomography scanner. The origin, course and distribution of the perforators of descending genicular artery were observed.From January 2005 to October 2011,seven patients with skin defect on the distant limbs were treated.The flap size was 5 cm × 6 cm-11 cm × 14 cm,vascular pedicle length 5.4 (4-7)cm. ResultsThe saphenous branch was consistent. It arised from the descending genicular artery (68%) or femoral artery(32%).The diameter of the saphenous branch was 1.5(1.1-1.7)mm at its origin above 9.0(4.0-16.0)cm from the medial epicondylar.Seven cases of flaps all survived,the average followup of 28 months,close to hand flap of skin texture,some sensory recovery,two-point discrimination 8-12mm. Conclusion Free saphenous branch of descending genicular artery flap is a reliable option for the treatment of soft tissue defect in hands. The pedicles were invariable of anatomy, thickness of the flaps is comparable,and procedure is simple and time saving.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate therapeutic efficacy of local application of gentamicin collagen sponge in the prevention of surgical incision infection,and to provide evidenced-reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed,EMBase,Cochrane Library,CBM,CJFD,VIP and Wanfang databases,randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about lo-cal application of gentamicin collagen sponge(trial group)vs. routine surgery disposal(control group)in the prevention of surgical incision infection were collected. After data extraction and quality evaluation with modified Jadad scale,Meta-analysis was per-formed by using Rev Man 5.3 statistical software. RESULTS:A total of 16 literatures were included,involving 7752 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of surgical incision infection in trial group was significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance [OR=0.71,95%CI(0.61,0.84),P<0.001]. The packet statistics showed that the incidence of surgical incision infection in cardiovascular surgery group [OR=0.59,95%CI(0.37,0.96),P=0.03] and skin soft tissue operation group [OR=0.34,95%CI(0.15,0.75),P=0.008] were significantly lower than control group. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of incision infection between digestive system operation group and control group [OR=0.62,95%CI(0.25,1.54), P=0.30]. The incidence of surgical incision infection in≤30 d group was significantly lower than control group[OR=0.58,95%CI (0.41,0.82),P=0.002];there was no statistical significance between more than 30 d group and control group [OR=0.86,95%CI (0.71,1.04),P=0.13]. The incidence of surgical incision infection [OR=0.65,95%CI(0.52,0.82),P<0.001] in gentamicin high-dose group (>100 mg) was significantly lower than control group;there was no statistical significance between gentamicin low-dose group (≤100 mg) and control group [OR=0.96,95%CI(0.72,1.28),P=0.77]. CONCLUSIONS:Local application of gentamicin collagen sponge may have certain effect on the prevention of surgical infection. Different types of surgery,observation time and dose have different prevention effects. It should be used carefully according to clinical practice.
