BACKGROUND:Synthetic polymers,such as polypropylene and polyester,used for the treatment of abdominal wall defects not only lack biodegradability and bioactivity but also fail to meet the demands of complex and irregular wounds.Therefore,finding bioactive materials with low immunogenicity and good histocompatibility has become a hot spot in the repair of abdominal wall defects. OBJECTIVE:To prepare methacryloyl modified dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel and explore its potential application in abdominal wall defect. METHODS:(1)The porcine dermis was acellular with 0.25%trypsin and 1%Triton X-100 in turn to obtain the dermal extracellular matrix.After pepsin digestion and methacrylic anhydride modification,the methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel was formed by photocrosslinking.The microscopic morphology of the hydrogel was observed by scanning electron microscope,and its rheological properties,swelling properties and other physical and chemical properties were tested.(2)Mice fibroblasts(L929)were inoculated into methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel to detect the cell compatibility.(3)Totally 12 SD rats were randomly divided into two groups(n=6)to create abdominal wall defect model with peritoneum preserved.The defect site of the polypropylene group was filled with polypropylene material,and the hydrogel group was filled with methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel.The wound skin of both groups was covered with polypropylene material.The wound healing was observed and histological analysis was carried out. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Enzymatic hydrolysis had a good decellularization effect on porcine dermis after decellularization,and the original glycosaminoglycans and collagen were well retained.Scanning electron microscope observation revealed that the dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel presented loose and porous structure.The aperture was between 70 and 120 μm.The swelling ratio was(16.88±3.24)%and the water absorption was(94.24±1.11)%.The rheological property test showed that the methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel was stable and had shear thinning characteristics,with injectability.(2)CCK-8 assay and live/dead staining showed that methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel had good cell compatibility.(3)The results of animal experiments showed that the skin wound healing rate of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at 7,10,and 14 days after operation(P<0.05).Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining of skin and muscle tissue exhibited that compared with the polypropylene group,the skin wound epithelialization,hair follicle formation,collagen fiber arrangement,and neovascularization were better in the hydrogel group 14 days after surgery.The skin wound new tissue structure was similar to the normal tissue at 28 days after surgery,and scar hyperplasia was less.A small amount of muscle regeneration was observed on day 28 after operation.(4)The results show that the methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel can promote wound skin healing and muscle tissue regeneration in rats with abdominal wall defect.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of targeted interventional embolization therapy by a multidisciplinary team for the hemorrhagic shock caused by acute pelvic fracture or/and acetabular fracture.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 63 patients with hemorrhagic shock caused by pelvic fracture or/and acetabular fracture who had been admitted to Department of Orthopaedics, The Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from January 2015 to July 2022. There were 44 males and 19 females with an age of (39.6±15.6) years, and 23 pelvic fractures, 35 acetabular fractures, and 5 pelvic and acetabular fractures. The time from injury to targeted interventional embolization therapy was 2.67 (2.00, 3.33) hours. All the patients were treated with targeted interventional embolization therapy by a multidisciplinary team involving orthopedics, interventional medicine, general surgery, and urology. The shock index and lactate level within 12 hours after therapy, 24-hour urine output, and incidence of complications 3 weeks after therapy were recorded.Results:No bleeding was found again in the 63 patients after embolization. Within 12 hours after therapy, the shock index was ≤1.0, indicating the shock was corrected. Within 12 hours after targeted interventional embolization therapy, the shock index (0.70±0.46) and lactate value [(2.03±1.35) mmol/L] in the 63 patients were significantly lower than those before therapy [(1.76±0.56) and (4.53±1.74) mmol/L] ( P<0.05). The 24-hour urine output [(50.26±20.38) mL/h] was significantly higher than that before therapy [(21.56±1.27) mL/h] ( P<0.05). Two patients experienced poor blood circulation in the distal skin of the great toe, which was relieved after treatment with blood circulation promotion and anticoagulation. Three patients developed necrosis of the hip soft tissue, which was cured after multiple times of debridement and anti-infection treatments. One patient with severe injury died from multiple organ dysfunction. Conclusions:The targeted interventional embolization therapy can not only diagnose the bleeding location in patients with hemorrhagic shock caused by pelvic fracture or/and acetabular fracture, but also timely and accurately carry out hemostatic treatment to correct shock. Moreover, a multidisciplinary team can help patients avoid multiple surgeries and decrease their pain and financial loss.

Objective: To report the experience on the multi-disciplinary management of metastatic renal cell (mRCC) patients in a single center. Methods: Data of 168 mRCC patients treated by multi-disciplinary team (MDT) at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from December 2007 to February 2019 was retrospectively analyzed.Three treatment groups were identified, including 76 patients with 55 males and 21 females, received anti-angiogenic agents alone (Group A), 66 patients with 55 males and 11 males, received anti-angiogenic agents plus local therapy (Group B)and 26 patients, with 19 males and 7 females, received anti-angiogenic agents plus immunotherapy and local therapy (Group C). The Sunitinib, Sorafenib, Axitinib were chosen for the TKI. The Pembrolizumab was used for immunotherapy. The stereotactic body radiation therapy and surgical excision were considered as the local therapy. The study aims to compare the age, gender, IMDC score, pathology, nbephrectomy, adverse events, progression-free survival and overall survival (OS). Results: Of all patients, the median follow-up duration was 23 months (ranging 6-117 cmonths). The PFS was 18.3 months and median OS was 33.5 months. The 2 years and 5 years survival rate was 66% and 35%, respectively. The median OS of Group A, B and C were 29.8 months, 44.6 months and not reached. 2y-OS was 58%, 67% and 89%, while 5y-OS 12%, 46% and 57%.There was no difference in age, gender, IMDC score, pathology, synchronous metastases or nephterectomy between the three groups. The prognostic result in TKI based combination therapy was superior to TKI therapy alone, which the 5y-OS was 51% and 11%, respectively. The prognostic result in group C's moderate-high risk mRCC patients was superior to group A and B. The median OS in TKI+ DC and CIK+ Pembrolizumab was 49.1 months and 53.1 months. On univariate analyses, IMDC score, nephrectomy and treatment group was associated with OS (P<0.05). On multivariate analyses, treatment group, nephrectomy was associated with OS (P<0.05). The risk of death of Group C decreased about 60% [HR 0.39 (0.17, 0.89), P=0.026]. 78 (46.4%) patients on TKI alone and 16 (61.5%) patients treated with TKI plus immunotherapy had Grade 3 or 4 adverse events. 16 (20.3%) patients had Clavien Ⅲ-Ⅳ toxicity after surgical procedures. 6 (5.7%) patients had Grade 3 toxiciy after SBRT. Conclusions Patients treated with combined therapy had better survival than those treated with anti-angiogenic agents alone. MDT approach could bring survival benefit to mRCC patients.

Objective:To evaluate the preliminary clinical efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in combination with targeted therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).Methods:Clinical data of 58 patients with mRCC who were treated with SBRT in combination with targeted therapy in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from June 2013 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 79.3% patients were classified as intermediate or high risk according to International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium Criteria. The median biologically equivalent dose (BED) was 147 Gy (67 to 238 Gy).Results:Overall, 32, 13, 7, 5 and 1 patients received SBRT for 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 metastatic sites (105 lesions) and 71.4% of them were bone lesions. Targeted therapy was continued during SBRT. With a median follow-up of 9.4 months (range 2.7 to 40.1 months), 18 patients died. The 1-year local control rate was 97.4%. The 1-year progression-free survival was 50.3%. The 1-and 2-year overall survival was 72% and 53%. Approximately 85% patients experienced pain relief after SBRT. Patients who achieved complete or partial response after SBRT obtained better overall survival than those with stable disease or disease progression (1-year overall survival: 83% vs. 48%, P=0.021). In the whole cohort, 6 cases developed Grade Ⅲ adverse events, 4 of which were Grade Ⅲ myelosuppression, 1 case of Grade Ⅲ neuropathy and 1 case of radiation-induced skin injury. Conclusion:Preliminary study reveals that combined use of targeted therapy and SBRT is an efficacious and safe treatment of advanced mRCC.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the distance from the upper and lower resection margin and the gastric cancer patients with R0 resection and no distant metastasis.Methods:Retrospective analysis of 281 patients with gastric cancer in our hospital,the relationship between the age,sex,tumor size,tumor size,vascular invasion,lymph node metastasis,TNM stage,type of gastric cancer,tumor location and operation mode was analyzed.To compare the survival time of patients with different upper and lower margins.Results:The increase of the distance from upper resection margin was significantly related to the tumor size＞5 cm,TNM stage,type of gastric cancer,tumor location,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05);The distance of lower resection margin was significantly correlated with tumor size＞5cm,vascular invasion,lymph node metastasis and TNM stage,type of gastric cancer,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05);Themedian survival timein patientsof upper resection marginr□3cm with 48 months of the 5-year follow-up period was significantly higher than that in patients of the resection margin＞3cmwith 46 months (P＜0.001).Themedian survival timein patientsof lower resection margin□3cm with 45 months of the 5-year follow-up period was significantly higher than that in patients of the resection margin＞3cm with 44 months (P＜0.001).Conclusion:Gastric cancer postoperative upper and lower resection margin was significantly related with tumor size,TNM staging factors,and the median survival time of upper and lower resection margin＞5 cm was significantly lower than that of the resection margin3 cm.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of patients with stage T2 bladder cancer who underwent combined treatment of bladder-preserving surgery and adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy.Methods The survival data of bladder cancer paients from January 2000 to December 2014 with stage T2N0M0 were retrospectively analyzed.Thirty-five patients of cT2N0M0 receive combined treatment of bladder-preserving surgery and adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy(group A),and 80 patients of pT2N0M0 underwent radical cystectomy (RC) (group B).The pathological diagnosis of all patients was urothelial carcinoma.In group A,there were 33(94.2％) males and 2 (5.8％) females;20 (57.1％) tumor size less than 3 cm and 15 (42.9％) larger than 3 cm;24 (68.6％) with single tumor and 11 (31.4％) with multiple tumors;11 (31.4％) patients with primary tumors and 24 (68.6％) recurrent tumors.In group B,there were 71 (88.7％) males and 9 (11.3％) females;35 (43.8％) tumor size less than 3 cm and 45(56.2％) larger than 3 cm;44 (55.0％) with single tumors and 36 (45.0％) with multiple tumors;22(27.5％) patients with primary tumors and 58 (72.5％) recurrent tumors.Results Groups A and B consisted of 35 and 80 patients and median follow-up time was 68 (13-157)and 67 (4-198)months,respectively.There was no significantly statistical difference in disease-specific survival (DSS) between the two groups(P =0.888),76.5％ for group A and 60.6％ for group B respectively.In group A,26 (74.3％) patients achieved complete response (CR) to intra-arterial chemotherapy.Additionally,amounts of 21 (60.0％) patients preserve their functional bladder successfully and their median follow-up time was 69 (13-134)months.8 patients receive delayed radical cystectomy when suffered tumor recurrence and none of them had lymph node metastases.Of those pathological stage was presented as stage T2 5 cases,T3 2 cases and T4 1 case.Importantly,the 8 patients who receive delayed RC did not confer worse DSS when compared with those underwent immediate RC in group B (P =0.809).Cox proportional hazards model showed that tumor number and CR to intra-arterial chemotherapy was independent prognostic factor for disease-free survival (HR =0.238,P =0.007) and DSS(HR =0.085,P =0.004) respectively.During the period of intra-arterial chemotherapy,we did not observe hematological toxicity of grade Ⅳ and the hematological toxicity of grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ was 9 (25.7％),6 (17.1％) and 4 (11.4％).Conclusions For patients with T2N0M0,combined treatment of bladder-preserving surgery and adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy could be a therapy with long-term survival outcome and safety.The therapy could be offered as alternative treatment option for patients who were unsuitable for receiving RC.

Objective: To explore the clinical outcome of advanced testicular nonseminomatous germ cell cancer patients undergoing post chemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (PC-RPLND), and to analyze the relevant prognostic factors of lymph node pathological. Methods: A total of 43 consecutive testicular nonseminomatous germ cell cancer patients underwent PC-RPLND between March 2001 and December 2014 in Department of Urology at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were retrospectively reviewed. The average age of the patients was (29.0±11.5) years (ranging from 12 to 58 years). Before PC-RPLND, 22 patients were classified as phase Ⅱ, while 21 were phase Ⅲ. Primary tumor histology revealed seminomatous elements in 19 cases, embryonal cell carcinoma in 22 cases, yolk sac tumor in 13 cases, chorionic carcinoma in 3 cases, mature teratomatous elements in 11 and immature teratomatous elements in 2 cases. Patients were treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy after orchectomy and then underwent surgical resection of retroperitoneal lymph nodes.After PC-RPLND, all patients underwent a periodic review including the blood routine, biochemistry routine and computed tomography or ultrasonograph of the chest, the abdomen and the pelvis. The association of pathological data with patient′s clinic features and the correlations between molecular features detected with each other were assessed by the t test, χ² and Fisher′s exact test. Multivariate logistic regression were used to assess prognostic factors. Results: The median operative time was 278 minutes (ranging from 50 to 715 minutes). Median blood loss was 425 ml (ranging from 50 to 5 000 ml). Eight patients received blood transfusion intra-operatively, 2 patients underwent adjunctive surgical procedures, 4 patients developed ileus and 4 had an ascites chylosus following PC-RPLND, 1 patient had a postoperative hyperthermia and retrograde ejaculation was present in 10 patients. The transverse diameter of the residual tumor in patients ranged from 0.8 to 18.2 cm. Necrosis, teratoma and viable germ cell tumors were found in 15, 17 and 11 of all patients. The median follow-up time was 46 months (ranging from 6 to 169 months). There were 39 patients had no tumor recurrence, 7 patients were found recurrence after PC-RPLND, 5 died of malignant germ cell tumor. The normal serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level before chemotherapy (HR=25.811, 95%CI: 0.678 to 982.624, P=0.017) and relative changes more than 50% in retroperitoneal lymph node size (HR=0.016, 95%CI: 0 to 0.698, P=0.032) were statistically significant prognostic factors of the presence of necrosis. Conclusions Since most residual masses are not sensitive to chemotherapy, PC-RPLND is still an essential part of the treatment of metastatic testicular nonseminomatous germ cell cancer. Patients with the normal serum LDH level before chemotherapy and a shrinkage of 50% or more in retroperitoneal mass have a considerably chance of having necrosis in the retroperitoneum resection. This may help to refine the selection of candidates for PC-RPLND.

Objective: To evaluate the quality status of recombinant human interferon α2a injections and find out some quality problems. Methods:The statutory testing methods combining with the exploratory studies were used to examine the samples, and the quality status of recombinant human interferon α2a injections was evaluated by statistical analysis of the results. Results: All 28 bat-ches of the injections were qualified using the statutory testing methods. The exploratory studies showed that if the specific activity was determined, the qualified rate was only 87. 0%. All 7 batches of drug substances were qualified using the statutory testing methods. The exploratory studies showed that if the related protein was determined, the qualified rate was 57. 1%. Conclusion:At present the quality of recombinant human interferonα2a injections is generally good. The current standards are feasible;however, improvement is still needed. Specific activity determination should be supplemented the standards for drug products and related protein determination should be supplemented the standards of drug substances.
