Objective To investigate the mechanism of inducing macrophage polarization induced by acupoint effect of electroacupuncture to promote the repair of acute skeletal muscle injury.Methods 45 SD rats were randomly divided into blank group,model group,electroacupuncture group(EA group),sodium chrominate group (DSCG group) and electroacupuncture+sodium chrominate group (hereinafter referred to as EA+DSCG group),with 9 rats in each group. The rats in the EA group and the EA+DSCG group were subjected to EA intervention at the right "Chengshan" (BL57) and "Yanglingquan"(GB34),with a frequency of 2 Hz/100 Hz. The gait changes of rats were recorded by animal gait analyzer. The morphological changes of the right gastrocnemius were observed by HE staining. The changes of mast cell aggregation and degranulation in local skin muscles of "chengshan" point were observed by toluidine blue staining. The expressions of Pax7,MyoD and skin mast cells and 5-HT in the right gastrocnemius were detected by immunofluorescence method. The positive expressions of CD68 and CD206 in right gastrocnemius macrophage was observed by immunohistochemical staining.Results Compared with blank group,the wiggle time of the right hind leg in model group and DSCG group increased,stride length decreased,HE staining showed inflammatory cell infiltration,myocyte enlargement,degeneration and necrosis. The degranulation rate of local skin mast cells in "Chengshan" (BL57) area increased,and the expressions of mast cell tryptase,5-HT,Pax7,MyoD,CD68 and CD206 increased (P<0.05). Compared with model group,the wiggle time of the right hind leg in EA group and EA+DSCG group decreased,stride length increased,HE staining showed that inflammatory cell infiltration was reduced,muscle cells were uniform in size and arranged neatly. Mast cell degranulation rate increased significantly in EA group,and the expressions of mast cell tryptase,5-HT,Pax7,MyoD and CD206 increased (P<0.05),while CD68 expression decreased (P<0.05). Compared with EA+DSCG group,the degranulation rate of mast cells and the expressions of mast cell tryptase,5-HT,Pax7,MyoD and CD206 increased (P<0.05),while CD68 expression decreased in EA group (P<0.05). Conclusion EA "Chengshan" (BL57) and "Yanglingquan" (GB34) can stimulate acupuncture points to locally induce mast cell degranulation,promote the polarization of macrophages,and then activate muscle satellite cells to play the regulatory process of repairing skeletal muscle injury.

Objective To evaluate 3D printing abdominal aortic aneurysm model in analysis of clinical teaching effect for standardized resident doctors in vascular surgery department. Methods 48 resi-dents in vascular surgery department in our hospital from December 2016 to September 2017 were seleeected and randomly divided into control group and the experimental group. The traditional vascular surgical anatomy atlas, ultrasound, CT abdominal blood vessel 3D reconstruction, digital subtraction, video and so on were used by 24 residents in the control group, while in the experimental group, on the basis of the traditional teaching, abdominal aortic aneurysm model of 3D printing, true aortic coated stent delivery system were increased. After the teaching, the theory of evaluation (abdominal vascular anatomical features, morphological characteristics and classification of AAA, measurement of various parameters and key points of operation in the EVAR) and satisfaction questionnaire were adopted to evaluate the effect of two kinds of teaching methods. SPSS 19.0 was used to conduct t test on two groups of physician evaluation data. Results The results of theoretical assessment showed that there was no significant difference between the control group and the experimental group in the abdominal vascular anatomical features, the morphological features and the classification of the experimental group (P>0.05) in the examination of the common AAA cases and the complicated AAA cases. However, the experimental group was higher than the control group in the mea-surement of the parameters of EVAR, and the score of the operation points and the total score, and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.283, t=2.263, P<0.05). The results of the questionnaire showed that the students' satisfaction scores on the teaching satisfaction of the normal and complex AAA cases were better than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The 3D printing model can increase the understanding and mastery of the anatomy and treat-ment of abdominal aortic aneurysm and improve its learning enthusiasm for vascular surgery. We should make full use of the advantages of 3D printing technology on the basis of retaining the advantages of tradi-tional teaching methods and means, and further enhance the teaching effect.
