Objective:To explore the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of single port laparoscopic liver resection via umbilical cord, and summarize its surgical experience.Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 39 patients who underwent liver resection surgery at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from February 2022 to September 2023. There were 19 patients in the transumbilical single-port laparoscopic group, including 5 males and 14 females, aged (49.6±2.5) years. There were 20 patients in the multi-port laparoscopic group, including 7 males and 13 females, aged (49.9±3.1) years. The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, intestinal recovery time, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative complications were compared between the single-port group and multi-port group.Results:All 39 patients successfully completed the surgery without any additional foramen or conversion to open surgery. The operation time of the single hole group (166.3±59.0) min was longer than that of the multi-port group (123.2±48.0) min, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.50, P=0.020). There were no statistically significant differences in intraoperative blood loss, intestinal recovery time, postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative complications between these two groups (all P>0.05). All patients had no postoperative complications such as bleeding, infection, or bile leakage. Follow up for 3~21 months showed no recurrence of primary diseases such as hepatic hemangioma, hepatic adenoma, and intrahepatic bile duct stones. The aesthetic effect of the umbilical incision in the single orifice group was significant, and patient satisfaction was 100%. Conclusion:Umbilical single-port laparoscopic liver resection surgery is safe and feasible, with significant minimally invasive and aesthetic effects.

Objective To investigate whether CD137?CD137L signaling could affect the secretion of mouse vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs)?derived exosomes through autophagy mediated Rab7 pathway. Methods Primary thoracic aorta VSMCs from C57BL/6J mouse were obtained by tissue block adherence method. VSMCs between the third to fifth passages were used and VSMCs were divided into 4 groups: control group, CD137 agonist group, lentivirus control group, Rab7 lentiviral interference group. VSMCs in CD137 agonist group were treated with recombinant protein of CD137L (10 μg/ml), VSMCs in lentivirus control group were treated with lentiviral followed by recombinant protein of CD137L (10 μg/ml), VSMCs in Rab7 lentiviral interference group were treated with Rab7 lentiviral intervention followed by recombinant protein of CD137L (10 μg/ml). Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of LC3Ⅱ, p62, Rab7, CD9, CD81 and Hsc70. Fluorescence microscopy was used to track the changes of autophagy in cells infected with mRFP?GFP?LC3. Transmission electron microscope was used to observe the morphology and size of VSMCs?derived exosomes. The nanoparticle tracking analysis(NTA) was used to detect the concentration and size of exosomes in each group.

Objective: To investigate whether CD137-CD137L signaling can affect the autophagy of mouse vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs) through JNK signal pathway. Methods: Primary culture of C57BL/6J mouse thoracic aorta VSMCs was performed by tissue block adherence method. VSMCs between the third to fifth passages were isolated and cultured. VSMCs were divided into 4 groups: control group, CD137 agonist group, JNK inhibition group, and DMSO group. VSMCs in CD137 agonist group were treated with recombinant protein of CD137L (10 μg/ml), VSMCs in JNK inhibition group were treated with JNK inhibitor SP600125 (10 μmol/L) for 30 minutes followed by recombinant protein of CD137L (10 μg/ml) and DMSO group was treated with the same amount of DMSO in JNK inhibition group for 30 minutes, then added recombinant protein of CD137L (10 μg/ml). Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of p-JNK, LCⅡ and p62 in each group. Fluorescence microscopy was used to track the changes of autophagy in cells which was infected with adenovirus expressing tandem mRFP-GFP-LC3. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to observe intracellular autophagosomes and autolysosomes. Results: (1) Compared with the control group, stimulating CD137-CD137L axis by recombinant protein of CD137L significantly upregulated the expression of p-JNK, LCⅡ and p62 (1.15±0.19 vs. 0.72±0.21, P<0.05;1.03±0.13 vs. 0.59±0.15, P<0.05, and 1.10±0.19 vs. 0.76±0.15, P<0.05). These effects could be reduced by JNK inhibitor (0.61±0.21 vs. 1.15±0.19, P<0.05;0.74±0.11 vs. 1.03±0.13, P<0.05, and 0.21±0.12 vs. 1.10±0.19, P<0.05). The expression of these proteins in DMSO group remained unchanged compared with CD137 agonist group (P>0.05). (2) Changes of autophagy in cells of various group: the number of total fluorescent spots and yellow fluorescent spots in CD137 agonist group was significantly increased compared to control group (total fluorescent spots:(93.00±14.11)/cell vs. (52.33±9.61)/cell, P<0.05, and (64.33±6.81)/cell vs. (25.67±3.51)/cell, P<0.05), moreover, the number of yellow fluorescent spots was higher than the red fluorescent spots fluorescent spots in CD137 agonist group. Compared with CD137 agonist group, pretreatment with JNK inhibitor significantly reduced the number of total fluorescent spots and yellow fluorescent spots ((53.00±3.17)/cell vs. (93.00±14.11)/cell, P<0.05,and (15.33±4.51)/cell vs. (64.33±6.81)/cell, P<0.05). The red fluorescent spots were higher than the yellow fluorescent spots in JNK inhibition group. The number of total fluorescent spots and yellow fluorescent spots in CD137 agonist group was not affected by pretreatment with DMSO (P>0.05). (3) The number of intracellular autophagosomes and autolysosomes was significantly higher in CD137 agonist group than in control group((17.67±6.03)/cell vs. (5.67±2.52)/cell, P<0.05), and the number of autophagosomes was higher than that of autolysosomes in CD137 agonist group((14.00±4.00)/cell vs. (3.67±2.08)/cell, P<0.05).

Objective: To explore whether CD137-CD137L interaction could induce mouse vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs) calcification via P38 MAPK signaling. Methods: (1) Mouse VSMCs obtained from 8-week old male C57 mice were cultured by using method of tissue piece inoculation.The cells from 3 to 8 passage were divided into 4 groups: control group, agonist-CD137 group(recombinant CD137L protein), anti-P38 group(agonist-CD137 group+P38 inhibitor), single anti-P38 group(P38 inhibitor). The calcification was induced by adding a mixture of 10 mmol/L β-glycerophosphate+10^-8 mol/L dexamethasone+10^-7 mol/L insulin in the culture medium.Immunofluorescence was used to observe the changes of VSMCs markers(α-SMA and OPN).Real time-PCR was used to observe the mRNA expression of OPN and RUNX-2. Western blot was used to observe the protein expression of p-P38, OPN and RUNX-2. The level of cell calcification was observed by detecting alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium concentration. (2) The degeree of local calcium deposition was also tested on Von Kossa staining and Alizarin red staining methods in following 5 mouse VSMCs groups: control group, agonist-CD137 group(recombinant CD137L protein), anti-P38 group (agonist-CD137 group+P38 inhibitor), anti-CD137 group (agonist-CD137 group+CD137 inhibitor),agonist-P38 group(anti-CD137 group+P38 agonist).

The fluorescence intensity of α-SMA was partly recovered after adding P38 inhibitor(4.48±0.27 vs. 2.79±0.25,P<0.05),but it was still lower than the control group (4.48±0.27 vs. 5.42±0.47, P<0.05),the fluorescence intensity of OPN decreased(2.66±0.15 vs. 4.91±0.23,P<0.05),but it was still higher than that in the control group (2.66±0.15 vs. 1.63±0.26,P<0.05).The fluorescence intensity of α-SMA and OPN(5.32±0.67 vs. 5.42±0.47,1.82±0.30 vs.1.63±0.26,both P>0.05) was similar between the control group and single anti-P38 group.(2) Compared with the control group, the protein level of p-P38(4.15±0.24 vs. 3.48±0.26, P<0.05), OPN(2.43±0.21 vs. 1.53±0.08, P<0.05), RUNX-2(3.20±0.23 vs. 1.13±0.10, P<0.05) was significantly increased in agonist-CD137 group,the above effects were blocked by adding specific P38 inhibitor SB203580(1.16±0.12 vs. 4.15±0.24, 0.50±0.02 vs. 2.43±0.21,and 1.74±0.14 vs. 3.20±0.23,all P<0.05);the protein level of p-P38(2.93±0.60 vs. 3.48±0.26,P>0.05),OPN (1.4±0.64 vs. 1.53±0.08,P>0.05),RUNX-2(1.26±0.26 vs.1.13±0.10, P>0.05) was similar between single anti-P38 group and the control group. (3) Compared with the control group, the mRNA level of OPN (1.51±0.34 vs. 1, P<0.05) and RUNX-2(2.67±0.19 vs. 1, P<0.05) was significantly upregulated in agonist-CD137 group, and these effects were blocked by adding specific P38 inhibitor SB203580(0.33±0.14 vs. 1 and 0.45±0.03 vs. 1,P<0.05);the mRNA level of OPN (1.05±0.09 vs. 1, P>0.05) and RUNX-2(1.18±0.10 vs. 1, P>0.05) was similar between the single anti-P38 group and the control group.(4) Compared with the control group,the ALP activity and calcium concentration(2.40±0.25 vs. 1.40±0.21,5.51±0.33 vs. 3.15±0.31,both P<0.05) were significantly increased in agonist-CD137 group,while the effects could be blocked by adding specific P38 inhibitor SB203580((1.99±0.07) king unit/gprot vs. (2.40±0.25) king unit/gprot, (3.74±0.20) mmol/gprot vs. (5.51±0.33) mmol/gprot, both P<0.05).The ALP activity and calcium concentration was similar between single anti-P38 group and the control group((1.60±0.25) king unit/gprot vs. (1.40±0.21)king unit/gprot, (2.66±0.28) mmol/gprot vs. (3.15±0.31) mmol/gprot, both P>0.05). (5) Compared with the control group,the calcification of VSMCs in the agonist-CD137 group was significantly increased,while the calcification in the anti-P38 group was significantly reduced.Compared with the agonist-CD137 group,the level of calcification in the anti-CD137 group was obviously increased,and the calcification in the agonist-P38 group was significantly higher than that in the anti-CD137 group and the control group. Conclusion These findings suggest that CD137-CD137L signaling may regulate VSMCs calcification via modulating P38 pathway.

Objective To explore the correlation between lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and perioperative myocardial injury (PMI),and to discuss the predictive value of Lp-PLA2 in patients with stable angina after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods A total of 222 consecutive patients with stable angina,who were admitted to Yixing Municipal People's Hospital,Jiangsu Province,China to receive PCI during the period from June 2015 to March 2017,were enrolled in this study.The patients' baseline data as well as the distribution pattern of coronary lesions,were recorded.According to the paclitaxel-PCI and the surgical cooperative study (SYNTAX) score,the severity of target vascular lesions was assessed,which was classified into low score group (0 to 22 points),middle score group (23 to 32 points) and high score group (≥33 points).The preoperative blood lipid level and renal function,both preoperative and postoperative Troponin T (cTnT),high sensitive C reactive protein(hs-CRP),as well as the postoperative Lp-PLA2 were tested.Results After the procedure,the Lp-PLA2 levels in patients with normal cTnT value (n=155) and in patients with elevated cTnT value (n=67) were(122.21±43.80) ng/ml and (224.53±65.00) ng/ml respectively (P＜0.05).SYNTAX score analysis showed that low score group had 120 patients,middle score group had 78 patients and high score group had 24 patients,the Lp-PLA2 levels of the above three groups were (119.51±51.96) ng/ml,(178.67±61.49) ng/ml and (233.16±61.32) ng/ml respectively,the differences were statistically significant between each other among the three groups (P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis indicated that a parallel correlation existed between Lp-PLA2 levels and postoperative cTnT values (R=0.492,P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis revealed that Lp-PLA2 was the independent risk factor for elevated cTnT value during the perioperative period of PCI (OR=7.377,95％CI=3.368-16.156,P＜0.05).The area under ROC curve of Lp-PLA2 was 0.896 (95％CI=0.874-0.945,P＜0.001),the best cut-off point was 179 ng/ml,and the sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of PMI were 92.2％ and 66.7％,respectively.Conclusion Lp-PLA2 levels are closely correlated with the increased cTnT values after PCI,and the preoperative high level of Lp-PLA2 is the independent risk factor for PMI after PCI.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility and efficacy of the establishment of regional cooperative acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) rescue network among the prefectural-level city hospitals in China. Methods: Based on real-time remote electrocardiogram transmission and "120" emergency systems, we established a regional collaborative STEMI treatment network with our hospital as the network unclears including 8 second-class affiliated hospitals of Jiangsu University in 2013. STEMI treatment time, therapeutic effects and economic indexes were compared before (from January 2010 to December 2012, 180 cases, pre-network) and after (From January 2013 to December 2015, 374 cases, post-network) the establishment of the regional collaborative STEMI treatment network. Results: Post establishment of the rescue network, mean first medical contact (FMC) to balloon (FMC-to-B) time, referral time and obtaining informed consent time were all significantly decreased from (191±41), (94±18), (25±9) minutes to (93±19), (53±18), (7±5) minutes, respectively, in comparison with the pre-network era(all P<0.05). There was a trend of prolonged FMC-to-B time in proportion to aging of STEMI patients(trend P<0.05). Three months post discharge, LVEF was higher (55.3%±10.7% vs. 48.8%±12.1%, P<0.05) and LVEDd was lower ((49.1±10.8)mm vs.(51.8±9.2)mm, P<0.05) in the post-network group compared to pre-network group.In-hospital mortality was also significantly reduced post the establishment of the rescue network (2.14%(8/374) vs. 3.89%(7/180), P<0.05). The results also showed that the total costs (42 017(25 069, 75 148)yuan vs.51 030(28 137, 105 861)yuan), days of hospitalization ((9.1±4.5) days vs. (15.3±4.8)days) and percentage of medicine and consumables were all significantly decreased in the post-network group compared to pre-network group(all P<0.05). Conclusion Establishment of the regional cooperative rescue network is feasible among the prefectural-level city hospitals in China. Establishment of such network can improve the prognosis and decrease the FMC-to-B time, the rate of in-hospital mortality and financial burden of patients with STEMI, and serves as an effective strategy to improve the rescue ability for STEMI patients.
