Objective To evaluate the ability of inductive osteogenesis of allgraft demineralized bone containing basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF/ALB) in repairing bone defect. Methods Thirty-two New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into four groups (groups A,B,C and D, n=8). A segmental bone defect of15 mm inlength was made on the bilateral radius respectively and the defects filled with ALB/bFGF in group A, with ALB in group B, with bFGF in group C and without any materials in group D serving as blank control. At 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks after operation, all restored bones were evaluated by roentgenography, histological observation and Ca2+detection of osteotylus. Results The X-ray films showed that groups A and B had a little shadow of bone formation at 2 weeks, while groups C and D had transparent shadow; that group A had denser shadow and new bone formation at 4 weeks and 6 weeks, groups B and C had a little increase of shadow and group D had little shadow at fractured ends; and that group A had formation of bone bridge at 8 weeks, the new formed bone in fractured ends of group B closed with each other, the gap still existed in group C, and the defects filled with the soft tissue in group D. The Ca2+content of group A was higher than that of groups B, C and D at 4 weeks (Plt;0.05) and 8 weeks (Plt;0.01). The histological observaton showed that the degree of bone restoration of group A was superior to that of groups B, C and D. Conclusion bFGF/ALB is a good material to improve bone restoration.
Objective To investigate the blood clotting dysfunction of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis(IPA)and the therapeutic effect of low molecular hepafin in a mouse model.Methods The neutropenic IPA mouse model was constructed by being given cyclophosphamide to depress immunologic function,and then intranasally challenged with Aspergillus fumigatus conidia.(1)Blood clotting function were assessed by bleeding time,clotting time,platelet count and antithrombase-III(AT-III)activity.Seventy-two mice were randomly assigned into 4 groups.Group A received only normal saline.group B received normal saline to substitute the cycloph0sphamide,and the rest equal to group D.Group C received normal saline to substitute the AspergiUus fumigatus conidia suspension,and the rest equal to group D.Group D(model group)received cyclophosphamide(intraperitoneally,150 mg/kg,d4,d1)and Aspergillus fumigatus conidia suspension(intranasally,40 μL/mouse,1.5×10∧5/mL,d0).Six mice were randomly sacrificed in each group for analysis of blood clotting function per 24 h after inoculation for 3 times.(2)Therapeutic effect of low molecular heparin was determined by survival time of IPA mice.One hundred and eighteen mice were randomly assigned into 4 groups after challenged with 6×10 conidia/mouse and received one of the following regimens daily from dl to d7 after challenge,vehicle(group E,n=29),low molecular heparin(group F,n=30,subcutaneous injection,1000 IU/kg,qd×7 d),amphotericin B(group G,n=29,intraperitoneal,1 m kg,qd×7 d),low molecular heparin plus amphotericin B(group H,n=30).Mice survivals were recorded once daily to d21 after innoculation.Results (1)AT-III activity of group D decreased significantly 24 h after innoculation.Bleeding time and clotting time decreased significantly and AT—III activity decreased sequentially 48 h after innoculation.The platelet decreased significantly 72 h after innoculation,and bleeding time shoaened further.Clotting time was longer than that 0f 48 h.but still shorter than norm al and AT-III activity decreased sequentially.There were significant differences when comparing group D with group A,B and C(all Plt;0.01).And there was no significant difference between group A,B and C(all Pgt;0.05).(2)Survival analysis indicated that the therapeutic effect of low molecular hepafin plus amphotericin B was better than that of amphotericin B or low molecular heparin alone.No therapeutic effect was found in group F(group E vs group F,Pgt;0.05,both group E and group F compared with group H,P lt;0.01.Group H vs group G,P lt;0.05.Both group E and group F compared with group G,P lt;0.05).Conclusions The results suggest that there is blood clotting dysfunction in IPA mice and AT—III activity may be an early index to monitor the disfunction.Compared with the therapeutic effect of amphoterinein B alone,low molecular hepafin plus amphoterincin B can prolong survival of neutropenic IPA mice

Methods Ascitic AFU activity was measured in 213 patients (117 with benign ascites and 96 with malignant ascites) diagnosed with benign or malignant ascites. The diagnostic sensitivity (SEN), specificity (SPE), accuracy, positive predictive value (PV+), negative predictive value (PV-), positive likelihood ratio (LR+), negative likelihood ratio (LR-) and Youden index (YI) of AFU were assessed with receiver operating characteristic curve, and the diagnostic effectiveness of AFU was evaluated. Results The average level of AFU in the malignant group [(164.96±87.72) μmol/(L?h)] was significantly higher than that in the benign group [(104.02±62.07) μmol/(L?h)] (Plt;0.01). The area under the curve (AUC) of the ROC curve of AFU was 0.754±0.034 for malignant ascites diagnosis, and the optimal cut-off value was 101.95 μmol/(L?h). When an AFU level equal to or higher than 101.95 μmol/(L?h) was used to predict malignant ascites, the diagnostic sensitivity was 82.3%, specificity was 63.2%, accuracy was 72.8%, PV+ was 65.3%, PV- was 83.1%, LR+ was 2.23, LR- was 0.28 and YI was 0.455. Conclusion Detection of AFU activity in ascites is helpful to differentiate the diagnose between malignant and non-tuberculous benign ascites, which is a relatively ideal index to fit for clinical application of local hospitals.
Objective To overview the systematic reviews/meta-analyses of radiofrequency ablation combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization for primary liver cancer. Methods We searched China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, Chongqing VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases using computers, with a search deadline of December 31, 2022 for systematic reviews/meta-analyses of radiofrequency ablation combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization for primary liver cancer. The AMSTAR 2 scale, PRISMA statement, and GRADE grading system were used to evaluate the reporting quality, methodological quality, and evidence level. Results A total of 13 systematic reviews/meta-analyses were included, published from 2011 to 2022. The evaluation results of the AMSTAR 2 scale showed that 4 systematic reviews/meta-analyses were of low quality, while the rest were of extremely low quality, without medium to high quality systematic reviews/meta-analyses. The evaluation results of PRISMA statement showed that the scores of 9 systematic reviews/meta-analyses were 15-21, with certain reporting defects, and only 4 were relatively complete. The GRADE system evaluation of 75 evidence bodies for 9 clinical outcome indicators showed that there was no high quality of evidence, with medium quality accounting for 29%, low quality accounting for 32%, and extremely low quality accounting for 39%. Conclusions Radiofrequency ablation combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization can improve the 1-year and 3-year overall survival rates of patients with primary liver cancer with medium quality of evidence. However, its impact on 5-year overall survival rate, recurrence-free survival rate, complications, and whether it is more effective for hepatocellular carcinoma with a diameter of 3-5 cm still require more high-quality clinical research and systematic evaluation to verify.
ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors of intraabdominal complications (IACs), pancreatic fistula (PF), and operative death after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), and to provide a theoretical basis in reducing the rates of them.
MethodsClinical data of 78 patients who underwent standard PD surgery in The Third People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from Jun. 2003 to Nov. 2011 were collected to analyze the influence factors of IACs, PF, and operative death.
ResultsThere were 29 cases suffered IACs (13 cases of PF included), and 6 case died during 1 month after operation. Univariate analysis results showed that IACs and PF occurred more often in patients with soft friable pancreas, diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm, preoperative biliary drainage, no pancreatic duct stenting, and without employment of somatostatin (P < 0.05), no influence factor was found to be related to operative death. Multivariate analysis results showed that patients with no pancreatic duct stenting (OR=1.867, P=0.000), soft texture of remnant stump (OR=1.356, P=0.046), and diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm (OR=2.874, P=0.015) suffered more IACs; PF was more frequent in patient with no pancreatic duct stenting (OR=1.672, P=0.030), soft texture of remnant stump (OR=1.946, P=0.042), and diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm (OR=1.782, P=0.002);no independent factor was found to have relationship with operative death.
ConclusionsSoft texture of remnant stump, diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm, and no pancreatic duct stenting are independent risk factors that should be considered in indications for PD surgery.
ObjectiveTo summarize basic research progress and current status of clinical diagnosis and therapy for gastroesophageal reflux disease.
MethodRelated literatures were collected to review the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and therapy of gastroesophageal reflux disease.
ResultsGastroesophageal reflux disease was caused by many factors, such as hiatus hernia, hypotensive lower esophageal sphincter pressure, acid pocket, prolonged esophageal clearance, and delayed gastric emptying. Extra-esophageal symptoms was a common clinical presentation to gastroesophageal reflux disease. The diagnosis methods for gastroesophageal reflux disease included the symptom observation, gastroscopy examination, 24 h pH monitoring of esophageal, proton pump inhibitor test, questionnaire of gastroesophageal reflux disease and so on. The laparoscopic fundoplication could essentially treat the pathophysiologic abnormalities of gastroesophageal reflux disease, which had an obvious curative effect and wide application prospect.
ConclusionPathogenesis, diagnosis, and therapy of gastroesophageal reflux disease are associated with multiple factors, which is still controversial and remains to be further studied.
