OBJECTIVE To study the protective effects o f valproic acid on cardiac and cerebral injury in rats subjected to severe scalding combined with seawater immersion injury with delayed fluid replacement. METHODS The rats were divided into scalding+delayed fluid replacement group （group S ），scalding+seawater immersion+delayed fluid replacement group （group SS ）， scalding+seawater immersion+valproic acid+delayed fluid replacement group （group SSV ）according to random number table ，with 60 rats in each group. All groups were subjected to 35％total body surface area third-degree full-thickness scalding with boiled water. Group SS and group SSV were immersed in artificial ；seawater（30 min）immediately after scalding ，and group SSV was subcutaneously injected with valproic acid 300 mg/kg immediately after out of water. Sodium lactate Ringer ’s 0314-2279277。E-mail：125467374@qq.com injection was injected intravenously within 30 minutes according to 1/2 Parkland formula at 2 h after scalding in each group for delayed fluid replacement. The death time of rats was recorded ，and the average survival time and 24 h survival rate of rats in each group were calculat ed. Mean arterial pressure （MAP），heart rate （HR），respiration rate （RR），rectal temperature （RT），arterial blood pH ，arterial partial pressure of oxygen （PaO2），arterial blood partial pressure of carbon dioxide （PaCO2），HCO3－，creatine kinase MB isoenzyme （CK-MB）and neuron specific enolase （NSE）were detected before scalding ，at 0，2，5 h after scalding. The pathological changes of cardiac and cerebral tissue were observed. RESULTS The 24 h survival rate of group SS （55％）was significantly lower than that of group S （90％）， while that of group SSV （75％）was increased significantly ，compared with group SS （P＜0.05）. Compared with group S ，the levels of MAP ，RT，HR，pH，PaO2 and HCO 3－ in group SS were significantly lowered ，while the levels of CK-MB and NSE were increased significantly at 0，2，5 h after scalding ；the levels of PaCO 2 were increased significantly at 2，5 h after scalding ， while the levels of RR were decreased significantly at 0，2 h after scalding （P＜0.05）. Compared with group SS ，the levels of MAP，RT，HR，pH，PaO2 and HCO 3－ in group SSV were significantly increased ，while the levels of PaCO 2，CK-MB and NSE were decreased significantly at 2，5 h after scalding ；the level of RR was increased significantly at 2 h after scalding （P＜0.05）. At 2，5 h after scalding ，cardiac and cerebral injury of rats in group SS were aggravated significantly than that in group S ；cardiac and cerebral injury of rats in group SSV were relieved significantly than that in group SS. CONCLUSIONS After severe scalding combined seawater immersion injury ，hypodermic injection of sodium valproate could protect cardiac and cerebral function of rats ， improve vital signs and blood gas index ，prolong survival time and improve survival rate in rats.

Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of single-port laparoscopy for giant ovariotubal cysts.Methods:38 patients with giant ovarian and fallopian tube cysts in Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University Hospital from January 2018 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into transumbilical single-port laparoscopy group (18 cases) and traditional laparoscopy group (20 cases). The perioperative related indexes such as operation time, intraoperative bleeding and the number of analgesic cases were compared between the two groups.Results:All 38 patients successfully completed the operation without conversion to laparotomy, and no auxiliary hole was added in the single-port laparoscopy group; There were no postoperative complications and no cystic fluid leakage. In the single-port laparoscopy group, 18 patients were satisfied with the concealment of umbilical scar. There was no statistically significant difference in operation time [(51.67±13.72)min vs (55.50±14.59)min], intraoperative blood loss [(52.22±24.38)ml vs (61.50±28.88)ml] and first postoperative anal exhaust time [(25.77±8.59)h vs (27.60±6.67)h] between single-port laparoscopy group and traditional laparoscopy group (all P>0.05); The number of cases requiring postoperative analgesia in the single-port laparoscopy group (2 cases vs 12 cases) was less than that in the traditional laparoscopy group ( P<0.05); The out of bed activity time [(20.95±3.65)h vs (26.95±5.43)h] and postoperative discharge time [(3.11±0.68)h vs (4.30±1.21)h] were shorter than those in the traditional laparoscopy group (all P<0.05). All 38 patients were followed up in the gynecological clinic for 6-24 months. The incision healed well without recurrence. Conclusions:Transumbilical single-port laparoscopic surgery for giant ovarian and fallopian tube cysts is reliable and safe when the possibility of malignant ovarian and fallopian tube tumors was excluded before operation.

Objective:To study the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) in pregnancy.Methods:This study involved six pregnant patients with PHPT who were admitted to Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University from August 2014 to November 2019. Their clinical manifestations, treatment strategies (multidisciplinary consultation with departments including Obstetrics, Endocrinology, Neonatology, General Surgery, Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Unit), maternal complications and maternal and infant outcomes were described and retrospectively analyzed.Results:(1) The median age of the six patients was 34(23-38) years old. PHPT was diagnosed in one case before pregnancy, four in the second or third trimester and one after delivery. The main clinical manifestations of four cases were nausea, vomiting, anorexia and other non-specific symptoms. Anemia was the most common maternal complication (five cases). Other complications included hypercalcemia crisis with renal failure (one case), multiple bone destruction and osteoporosis (one case). The median levels of serum calcium, parathyroid hormone and 25-hydroxyvitamin D were 3.08 (2.84-4.21) mmol/L, 216.7(93.1-2 603.6) ng/L and 29.66 (13.50-90.24) nmol/L, respectively. Results of parathyroid ultrasonography showed all patients had hypoechoic focus. Four cases underwent routine parathyroid radionuclide imaging showing abnormal radioactive concentration areas. (2) Obstetricians initiated the multidisciplinary team (MDT) for all patients to determine the treatment plans after communication with the patients and their families. One case received surgical treatment five months after delivery. Three cases received surgical treatment in the second trimester and among them, one terminated the pregnancy in the second trimester and the other two continued and achieved good pregnancy outcomes. Two cases underwent surgical treatment after giving up pregnancy and induced abortion. Postoperative pathology revealed that five cases were isolated parathyroid adenoma and one was parathyroid carcinoma. All of the patients were followed up and no abnormal serum calcium was reported. (3) One newborn had hypocalcemic convulsions one month after birth and was recovered by intravenous calcium supplementation. The newborn was followed up and the serum calcium level was normal so far. The other two neonates had normal serum calcium during follow-ups, but one of them was diagnosed with autism at the age of four and is now undergoing rehabilitation treatment.Conclusions:Pregnancy complicated by PHPT may lead to serious maternal and infant complications. MDT consultation ensures timely diagnosis, comprehensive treatment for the patients and better pregnancy outcomes.

Objective To investigate the perinatal outcomes after elective neurosurgery in pregnant women complicated by space-occupying lesions in saddle area.Methods Clinical data were retrospectively collected and analyzed from five gravidas with space-occupying lesions in saddle area,who underwent neurosurgery at Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from June 2017 to February 2018,including gestational age,perioperative management,surgical procedures,postoperative complications,pregnancy outcomes and pathological results.Results (1) Progressively deteriorated impaired vision was the chief complaint of all five patients.Space-occupying lesions in saddle area were detected by cranial MRI (plain scan).The surgical indication was clear as there was compression on optic nerve and a risk of blindness due to optic nerve atrophy,Two patients were operated in the third trimester and three in the second trimester.Postoperative pathology showed there were two cases with meningioma,two with pituitary macro adenoma and one with abscess of pituitary.Only one patient had mild postoperative cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea,which was improved three months later,and no complications were reported in the other four cases.All five patients had obvious improvement of vision after surgical intervention and no relapse was reported during a follow-up of 4-12 months.(2) Four gravidas continued their pregnancies to full or nearly full term,among which three underwent cesarean section due to obstetrical indications (one breech pregnancy,one twin pregnancy with scarred uterus and one complicated by hypertensive diseases of pregnancy with poor blood pressure control) and one delivered vaginally.Postpartum involution of the uterus was well in all of the four cases 42 d after delivery.The women with pituitary abscess terminated the pregnancy due to intraamniotic injection of ethacridine lactate at 20 weeks of gestation.Five neonates were all born with Apgar scores of 10 at 1,5 and 10 min without any visible defects at birth and all grew and developed normally at 4-12 months after birth.Conclusions For gravidas with space-occupying lesions in saddle area,it is necessary to weigh the pros and cons and choose an individualized treatment plan.Resection of saddle area lesions in the second or third trimester backed by a multidisciplinary team is a safe and feasible procedure if postponing the operation until delivery may cause irreversible or even life-threatening consequences.

Background and objective Amorphigenin, a rotenoid compouns, from seeds of Amorpha fruticosa, has been shown to possess anti-proliferation activities in several cancer cells. To explore the antitumor effects of amorphigenin on cisplatin-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma A549/DDP cells and explore the underlying mechanisms.Methods CCK-8 assay was used to measure the proliferation of A549/DDP cells; Colony formation assay was used to measure the colony formation of A549/DDP cells; Flow cytometry assay was used to detect the apoptosis rates; Western blot analysis was used to explore the expression of apoptosis-related proteins (caspase-3 protein, PARP protein) and lung resistance protein (LRP). Results Our results demonstrated that amorphigenin could inhibit the proliferation of A549/DDP cells with a inhibition con-centration of 50% cell growth (IC50) at 48 h of (2.19±0.92) μmol/L. Amorphigenin could inhibit the colony formation ability and induce apoptosis of A549/DDP cells; Furthermore, amorphigenin combined with cisplatin showed synergistic prolifera-tion-inhibitory effect and apoptosis-promoting effect in A549/DDP cells; reduced the expression of LRP of A549/DDP cells. Conclusion Amorphigenin remarkably inhibits the proliferation and induces apoptosis in A549/DDP cells. Combination of amorphigenin with cisplatin had the synergistic inhibitory effect on A549/DDP cells by downregulating the expression of LRP.

BACKGROUND:Because of convenient source, multi-lineage differentiation and low immunogenicity, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels are the ideal cel type to serve as vectors of transgenic cels in pain management. However, the replicative senescence and smal amount of cels obtained from the bone marrow restrict the application of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels in pain research. OBJECTIVE:To construct human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)-immortalized rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels as transgenic celular vectors for pain therapy. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were obtained from whole rat bone marrow, and then transfected with a lentivirus containing the hTERT (pLV-Puro-EF1α-hTERT) folowed by puromycin selection. hTERT expression and telomerase activity in these transfected cels were determined by RT-PCR and TRAP. Morphological changes, capacity of cel growth and multi-lineage differentiation, chromosome karyotype and tumorigenicity were observed in vitro. Moreover, the expression of cel surface molecule, Nestin, MHC-I and MHC-II in transfected cels were also detected by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels geneticaly modified by hTERT could be cultured and passaged through 30 generations in vitro. Compared to the primary and negative transfected cels, the hTERT-modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels showed higher expression of hTERT mRNA, telomerase activity and cel proliferation. Most of transfected cels stayed at G2/M and S stages. The proliferation index of the transfected cels were increased dramaticaly. The positive rates of CD29, CD44 and CD90 were over 70%, but the positive rates of CD34 and CD45 were less than 5%. Transfected cels were positive for Nestin in the cytoplasm, but negative for MHC-1 and MHC-11. In addition, this cel line continued to exhibit the characteristics of fibroblastic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels, including phenotype, differentiation into osteoblasts, adipocytes and neuron-like cels. No chromosome abnormality and tumor formation were observed in this experiment. Taken together, these data suggests that the rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels immortalized by hTERT gene are constructed successfuly and stil maintain major stem cels characteristics, which provide safe and stable cel vectors as research base for pain therapy.

Objective To investigate the effect of periurethral injection of insulin-like growth factor(IGF)-Ⅰ on the expression of IGF-Ⅰ and IGF-Ⅱ mRNA during regeneration period following urethral sphincter muscle injury in female rats. Methods Model of urethral sphincter muscle injury was made in female virgin SD rats (n=50) by intravaginal balloon inflation. Then the rats were divid-ed randomly into treatment group (n= 25) and control group (n= 25), treatment group accepted peri-urethral injection of 1.0μg human IGF-Ⅱ to the middle urethral muscle, control group accepted nor-mal saline injection. Five rats in each group were sacrificed at 2, 4, 6, 8, 14 day respectively and the whole urethra specimens were processed for RT-PCR to detect the expression of IGF-Ⅰ ,Ⅱ mRNA. A normal control group (n = 5) was set without intravaginal balloon inflation and injection. Results The expression of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA in control group increased at day 4, 6, 8, 14, the IGF-Ⅰ/β-actin ra-tios were 0. 58±0.15, 1.73±0.31, 2.30±0.29, 0. 46±0. 06. The expression of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA in treatment group increased at all time points, as 0. 69±0.21, 1.45±0.17, 2.25±0.45, 2.90±0.49, 1.92±0. 31. The difference was significant on day 4, 14(P<0.01), and day 8 (P<0.05) compared with the control group. The expression of IGF-Ⅱ mRNA in control group increased at day 4, 6, 8, as 0.42±0. 14, 1.51±0. 59, 1.31±1.04. The expression of IGF-Ⅱ mRNA in treatment group in-creased at day 4, 6, 8, 14, as 1.04±0.23, 1.94±0.29, 1.75±0.41, 0. 81±0.15. The significant difference was noted on day 4 (P<0. 01)compared with the control group. No expression of IGF-Ⅰand Ⅱ mRNA in the normal control group. Conclusions The expression of endogenous IGF-Ⅰ and IGF-Ⅱ mRNA was up-regulated by periurethral injection of IGF-Ⅰ during regeneration period follow-ing urethral sphincter muscle injury in female rat. Our findings suggest that IGF-Ⅰ facilitates the re-generation of the urethral muscles and may play a role in treatment of stress urinary incontinence in-duced by urethral sphincter muscle dysfunction.
