Objective:To investigate the mid-term efficacy of Pulsar-18 stent in the treatment of spontaneous isolated superior mesen-teric artery dissection(SIDSMA)through a retrospective analysis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for the data of pa-tients with SIDSMA who received treatment with Pulsar-18 stent from April 2019 to March 2021.Basic information was collected,such as sex,age,underlying disease,and radiological features,and the patients were observed in terms of the improvement in clinical symp-toms,stent patency rate,and vascular remodeling during follow-up.Results:A total of 45 patients were included in this study,with 41 male patients and 4 female patients.The patients had an age of 45-72 years,and the patients with hypertension accounted for 48.89%(22/45).The surgical success rate was 100%.A total of 63 stents were placed for the 45 patients,with a stent diameter ranging from 5 mm to 7 mm.There were no perioperative complications such as acute thrombosis of the stent,and the probability of hematoma at the puncture point was 0%.The stent patency rate was 100%at 3 months,6 months,1 year,and 2 years after stent placement,and the com-plete vascular remodeling rate was 64.4%,82.2%,82.2%,and 86.7%,respectively.One patient developed bloody stool at 5 months af-ter surgery and was diagnosed with duodenal ulcer,and the patient fully recovered after endoscopic hemostasis.The other patients had no recurrent abdominal pain,new-onset aneurysms,or enlargement of the false lumen within 2 years.Conclusion:Pulsar-18 stent placement is an effective treatment method for SIDSMA and can provide a high rate of complete vascular remodeling,with a high pa-tency rate during mid-term follow-up.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of P75NTR gene-induced apoptosis in tongue squamous cell carcinoma Tca8113 cell lineage.Methods P75NTR specific siRNA was transferred into P75NTR positive tongue squamous cell carcinoma Tca8113 cells.P75NTR positive Tca8113 cells were divided into 4 groups:blank group (without transfection),negative control group (transfected with negative control siRNA ), experiment group-776 (transfected with siRNA-P75NTR-776 ) and experiment group-1234 (transfected with siRNA-P75NTR-1234).Transfection efficiency and cell apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.The interference effect of P75NTR mRNA expression was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR. 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazoly)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide assay was applied in measuring cell prolife-ration.The protein changes of P75NTR were detected by Western blotting.The distributions of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)of cells were observed by cell immunofluorescence labeling method.Results The transfection efficiency was 30%.The apoptosis rate of experiment group-776,experiment group-1234 and negative control group was (20.35 ±0.18)%,(12.32 ±1.51)% and (2.63 ±0.10)% respectively.Compared with the negative control group,the differences of the former two group had statistical significance (t =177.20,P <0.005;t =37.12,P <0.005).The P75NTR gene interference was successful.The inhibition rate of P75NTR protein reached 31% in experiment group-776.The cell viability of Tca8113 cells after P75NTR-siRNA inter-
ference was 70.02%,78.01% and 95.81% in experiment group-776,experiment group-1234 and negative control group.And there were significant differences between experiment group-776 and negative control group (χ2 =235.3,P <0.010),and between experiment group-1234 and negative control group (χ2 =117.5,P <0.005 ).NF-κB distribution was increased in cell cytoplasm in the interference group than that in control group.Conclusion P75NTR may promote the proliferation or inhibit the apoptosis of tongue squamous cell carcino-ma,and the molecular mechanism may be correlated with hindering the transportion of NF-κB into cell nuclear.

Objective:To study the effect of p75NTR gene on the apoptosis of tongue squamous cell carcinoma Tca8113 cells. Methods:p75NTR +Tca8113 cells were isolated from Tca 8113 cell line and transfected by p75NTR siRNA using lipofectamine. p75NTR mRNA and protein expression was examined by real time RT-PCR and western blot respectively.Cell proliferation was stud-ied by MTT assay,cell apoptosis was examined by flow cytometry.Results:Proliferation of p75NTR + cells was faster than that of p75NTR - cells.Transfection of p75NTR siRNA inhibited p75NTR mRNA and protein expression in p75NTR + Tca8113 cells,inhibi-ted the proliferation and increased the apoptosis of the cells.Conclusion:p75NTR gene plays a role in the apoptosis of Tca8113 cells.

Objective To evaluate TriVex based transilluminated powered phlebectomy (TIPP)three-stage management for lower limb venous ulcers.Methods This retrospective study included 86 patients with 103 diseased limbs treated in our hospital from October 2005 to July 2013.All received TriVex TIPP three-stage management.Results After therapy there was no acute cellulitis,skin necrosis nor lower limb deep venous thrombosis.There were 2 cases of subcutaneous ecchymosis,1 case of subcutaneous hematoma,1 case of skin abnormal sensation and 1 case of subcutaneous induration.Ulcers healed within one month postoperation in all cases,while skin abnomalities were alleviated with no ulcer recurrence during the follow-up ranging from 4 to 48 months.Conclusions TriVex TIPP centered threestage management is a good option for lower limb venous ulcer,with shortened healing time,low recurrence rate.

BACKGROUND: Craniocerebral injury can cause a series of visceral complications, among which cardiovascular complication is paid special attention.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of craniocerebral injury on changes of circulatory and local angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ ) and local angiotensin Ⅱ receptor 1 (AT1) in the heart.DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment taking animals as subjects.SETTING: Beijing Tiantan Hospital, and the College of Basic Medicine,Capital University of Medical Sciences.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted at the Central Laboratory of Capital University of Medical Sciences and the Central Laboratory of Beijing Tiantan Hospital from 2003 to 2004. Totally 40 healthy male Wistar rats were divided randomly into craniocerebral injury group and control group with 20 in each group.METHODS: Rats in craniocerebral injury group were treated with weightdrop method to establish the model of craniocerebral injury, while rats in control group received no impact. Twenty-four hours after hitting, 10 rats in each group were selected to assay their Ang Ⅱ and AT1; the other 10 in each group were selected to observe their myocardial forms.myocardium of rats assayed with light microscope after hematoxylin-eosin staining and transmission electron microscope.It was significantly higher in craniocerebral injury group than in control ity: It was obviously higher in craniocerebral injury group than in control Ⅱ and AT1: The area of positive reactant and gray value in craniocerebral toxylin-eosin staining: Strong acidophil staining was found on myocardial cellular plasma in craniocerebral injury group. The results showed that cytoplasm shrank obviously; muscle fiber broke, decreased or disappeared.Focal hydropic degeneration, lysis or necrosis was observed in myocardium.Ultrastructural pathological observation revealed pathological damage of myocardium.CONCLUSION: Craniocerebral injury in rats can cause myocardial damage, and changes of angiotensin system may be one of the factors.

AIM: To test the effect of ERK1/2 on ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in diabetic rat hearts. METHODS: The diabetic rat model was made with alloxan. After eight weeks, 24 rats were divided into 4 groups: non-diabetic IPC rats (group A); non-diabetic non-IPC rats (group B); diabetic IPC rats (group C); diabetic non-IPC rats (group D). ECGⅡ lead, left ventricular development pressure (LVDP), and first derivative of LVDP ~(?dp/dt_~max ) were recorded. Myocardial phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinases1/2 (ERK1/2) was detected by Western-blotting. RESULTS: (1) The ventricular arrythmia score was significantly lower in group A than that in group C (P
