Objective To investigate the effect of Clearing and Elimination Therapy combined with small incision lesion resection in treating granulomatous lobular mastitis(GLM).Methods The medical re-cord data of 160 female patients with pathologically diagnosed GLM receiving Clearing and Elimination Thera-py combined with small incision lesion resection in the Department of Integrated Chinese Traditional and Western Medicine Mammary Gland of this hospital from January 2019 to June 2023 were analyzed retrospec-tively.The disease course,cure rate and recurrence rate were observed and summarized.Results The total treatment course was(5.6±4.1)months.The cure rates after 3,6,12 months of treatment were 34.4%(55/160),58.1%(93/160)and 93.8%(150/160)respectively.The recurrence rates after 3,6,12 months of follow-up were 3.1%(5/160),3.8%(6/160)and 5.6%(9/160)respectively.Conclusion Clearing and Elimination Therapy combined with small incision lesion resection in treating GLM has good efficacy.

The present research was aimed to explore the biocompatibility of IKVAV self-assembling peptide nanofiber scaffold with olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) of rats. The OECs were seeded onto the surface of coverslips covered with IKVAV self-assembling peptide nanofiber scaffold hydrogel (2D culture system), and implanted within IKVAV self-assembling peptide nanofiber scaffold hydrogel (3D culture system), respectively. The adhesion, viability of OECs were observed with inverted microscope. Then the characteristics for survival and adhesion of cells by image processing were observed, and statistical analysis on the number of S-100 positive cell, the area of the cell bodies and the perimeter of the cell and MTT method were carried out. It was found that the OECs could survive and migrate in IKVAV self-assembling peptide nanofiber scaffold. The result of the cell MTT exam, of the shape and quantity of cells had no significant difference compared to those of the OECs cultured with poly-L-lysine (PLL). It has been proved that IKVAV self-assembling peptide nanofiber scaffold has good biocompatibility with rat OECs.

BACKGROUND: Fibrin glue has been demonstrated to function as a kind of biomaterial with high quality. It has been used in nerve tissue engineering and proved to be a kind of scaffold for some cells.OBJECTIVE: To explore the biocompatibility of fibrin glue and olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs).DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: An in vitro control trial based on cytology was performed at the Institute of Neurobiology,Nantong University from August 2007 to February 2008.MATERIALS: Fibrin glue was made of fibrin and catalyst, and OECs derived from rats' olfactory bulb were normally primary-cultured.METHODS: OECs were divided into control (OECs clone spheres were cultured alone) and in fibrin glue (OECs clone spheres were cultured and combined with fibrin glue) groups. After 1 week of culture, the proliferation of OECs were observed by convert microscope and detected by S-100 immunofluorescence histochemical staining.MAIN OUTCOME M EASURES: OECs morphology, cell count, the area of the cell bodies and the perimeter of the cell were determined.RESULTS: OECs could survive, migrate in fibrin glue, and float in the fibrin glue in the lower layer. After 7 days of incubation, cell body exhibited fusiform or triangle, predominantly bipolar or bipolar. The number of the S-100 positive cells was more, and cell bodies were larger in fibrin glue group than control group (P < 0.05). However, there was no obvious difference between two groups in cell perimeter (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Fibrin glue has good biocompatibility with OECs, and OECs can survive and migrate in fibrin glue.

With the rapid development and wide application of nano-techonology,the development of spine tissue engineering materials has been ushered into a brand field.Because of its unique effects of promoting cell adhesion,proliferation and function,nano-meterial will play more and more important role in the research on spine cord injury repair.
