Relationship between serum reproductive hormones and sperm parameters and surgical outcomes in Micro-TESE / 现代泌尿外科杂志

【Objective】 To investigate the relationship between serum reproductive hormones and sperm parameters and outcomes of micro-testicular sperm extraction (Micro-TESE). 【Methods】 Clinical data of 1 091 patients treated in our hospital during Jan. and Dec.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the sperm concentration,the patients were divided into non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) group (group A,n=418),normal sperm concentration group (group B,n=615),mild to moderate oligospermia group (group C,n=18),severe oligospermia group (group D,n=18),and obstructive azoospermia group (group E,n=22). In group A,244 cases treated with Micro-TESE were grouped into the sperm-acquired group (Micro-TESE positive group,n=82) and non-sperm-acquired group (Micro-TESE negative group,n=162),and according to the pathological types of testicular tissue,the patients were divided into normal testicular tissue with hypospermatogenesis group (HYPO group,n=129),maturation arrest group (MA group,n=10),and support-only cell syndrome group (SCO group,n=122). Differences in semen parameters and reproductive hormone levels were compared,and relationship between reproductive hormones and sperm parameters and Micro-TESE outcomes was determined with Pearson correlation analysis. 【Results】 In the sperm concentration subgroup,the testicular volume of group A was lower than that of group B and group E (P<0.05); the levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in group A were the highest (P<0.05),but the level of testosterone (T) was the lowest (P<0.05); the levels of anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) and serum inhibin B (INHB) in group A were lower than those in group B and group E (P<0.05),the normal sperm morphology rate in group B was higher than that in group A and group E (P<0.05); the percentage of forward moving sperm in group B was the highest (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that sperm concentration,normal sperm morphology rate,and percentage of forward moving sperm were negatively correlated with age,FSH,LH (P<0.05),and positively correlated with testicular volume,T,AMH,and INHB (P<0.05). NOA patients were grouped according to testicular histology and pathology. The INHB in the SCO group was the smallest of the three groups (P<0.05); the FSH and LH levels in the SCO group were higher than those in the MA group (P<0.05),while the 17β-estradiol (E2) levels in the HYPO group were higher than those in the SCO group (P<0.05). NOA patients were grouped according to the results of Micro-TESE surgical treatment. There was a statistically significant difference in AMH and INHB levels between the Micro-TESE positive and negative groups (P<0.05). The binary logistic regression analysis of factors affecting the Micro-TESE outcomes of NOA patients showed AMH was negatively correlated with the Micro-TESE outcome (OR=0.904,95%CI:0.91-1.08,P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Age,FSH,LH,AMH,and INHB are correlated with sperm concentration,normal sperm morphology rate,and percentage of forward moving sperm. The INHB level was the lowest in the SCO group. The results of Micro-TESE in patients with NOA can be predicted by serum AMH level.

Negative Feedback Mechanism of Entero-gastric Inhibitory in Delayed Gastric Emptying Following Surgery for Stomach Cancer / 肿瘤防治研究

Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common complication following upper gastrointestinal surgery, especially following distal gastrectomy and partial pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure). Its underlying mechanism remains unclear and needs to be elucidated. Through negative feedback mechanisms, duodenal distension inhibits gastric emptying. In our experience in performing a gastrojejunostomy, we speculate that this mechanism may still exist in the proximal jejunum and is activated by jejunal distension or stretching. There are many surgical factors leading to this mechanism activation. When a jejunal anastomosis is created by a relative large caliber of a circular stapling device, the mucosa may suffer from a circumferential scratch or bruising injury resulting in local inflammation. Afferent loop twisting may also lead to distal duodenum and/or jejunal distension. In addition, a mild/slight tension may exist on the mesenteric side of the gastrojejuostomy, especially when the antecolic route for reconstruction of the gastrojejunostomy has been performed. The inflammatory mucosa may keep the jejunum circumferentially distended, the bowel twist might compromise the lumen patency, and tension on gastrojejuostomy would stretch the jejunal wall. Any of these factors might contribute to the mechanisms of DGE by the negative feedback mechanisms.

Multifactor analysis of postoperative patency of microsurgical vasoepididymostomy / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objective To analyze the factors which may affect postoperative patency of microsurgical vasoepididymostomy (VE).Methods Ninety-four patients underwent VEs from September 2014 to June 2016 in the Department of Urology,Peking University Third Hospital,with average age of (30.7 ± 4.8) years,and body mass index (BMI) of (25.1 ± 3.0) kg/m2.Semen analyses were performed 1 month,3 months and 5 to 6 months after the operation.The following semen analyses were performed every 3-6 months thereafter.Patency was defined by finding sperms in twice or more analyses during the followup until August 2017.Patients were followed up by face-to-face or telephone interview.Seven factors (age,BMI,bilateral or unilateral anastomosis,anastomosis sites,the adjustment of anastomosis sites,motility and quantity of sperms found in epididymal fluid) were analyzed by Chi-square analysis and multifactor logistic regression analysis.Results Eighty-two patients were followed up (87.2％,82/94) while 12 patients were lost of follow-up.The mean follow-up time was 19 months.Sperms were found in the ejaculate in 59 patients postoperatively.The overall patency rate was 72.0％ (59/82),and natural paternity rate was 32.8％ (19/58).Patients ≤28 years old and those ＞28 years old had patency rates of 89.3％ (25/28) and 63.0％ (34/54,P =0.012),respectively.Patients with BMI ＜26.0 kg/m2 and BMI≥26.0 kg/m2 had patency rates of 80.4％ (41/51) and 58.1％ (18/31,P =0.029),respectively.Patency rate of bilateral surgery was 72.1％ (44/61) and of unilateral surgery was 71.4％ (44/62,P =0.727).Patency rate of caput anastomosis achieved 75.0％ (15/20) and of corpus/caudal anastomosis was 71.0％ (44/62,P =0.727).Patency rates of patients with and without adjustment of anastomosis sites were 77.8％ (7/9) and 71.2％ (52/73,P =0.680),respectively.Patency rates of a lot,a few,motile and seldom-motile sperms in epididymal fluid were 74.3％ (55/74) vs.50.0％ (4/8,P =0.146) and 70.0％ (28/40) vs.73.8％ (31/42,P =0.701),respectively.Multifactor logistic regression analysis showed that age was well associated with patency rate (OR=4.705,95％CI 1.181-18.742,P=0.028).Conclusions Age ≤28 years is an independent factor leading to higher patency rates.Patients with lower BMIs and younger could have higher patency rates.Factors of anastomosis sides,anastomosis sites,the adjustment of anastomosis sites,motility and quantity of sperms found in epididymal fluid showed no statistical difference in patency rates.

Effect of postoperative hyperglycemia on clinical outcome of gastrointestinal fistula patients undergoing gastrointestinal reconstruction / 中华胃肠外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of hyperglycemia within postoperative 48 hours on gastrointestinal (GI) fistula patients without preoperative diagnosis of diabetes undergoing selective GI reconstruction.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Clinical data of GI fistula patients with age of 18 to 70 years and without diffuse peritonitis and systemic infection undergoing definitive GI reconstruction at Intestinal Fistula Center of Jinling Hospital from September 2012 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the highest blood glucose (BG) value detected within postoperative 48 hours, patients were divided into normoglycemia (BG<6.9 mmol/L), mild hyperglycemia (6.9 to 11.4 mmol/L) and severe hyperglycemia (BG≥11.5 mmol/L) groups. Clinical manifestations were compared among three groups. Effects of postoperative hyperglycemia on associated parameters, including postoperative surgical site infection, anastomotic leakage, intestinal nutrition recovery, hospital stay and hospitalization cost were investigated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A total of 314 patients were enrolled, of whom postoperative gastric fistula occurred in 6 cases, small intestinal fistula in 95 cases, ileocolonic anastomotic fistula in 116, and colorectal fistula in 97 cases. One hundred and ninety-three (61.5%) patients experienced hyperglycemia, including 148 cases of mild hyperglycemia group and 45 cases of severe hyperglycemia group, the other 121 cases were of normoglycemia group. There were no significant differences in gender, BMI, ratio of smoking, ratio of alcohol user and primary diseases among 3 groups (all P>0.05). Older patients were vulnerable to postoperative hyperglycemia and patients who developed hyperglycemia were also prone to have increased ASA score (all P=0.000). Hyperglycemia patients had significantly higher ratio of postoperative ileocolonic anastomotic fistula (mild hyperglycemia group: 40.5%, 60/148; severe hyperglycemia group: 44.4%, 20/45) than normoglycemia cases (29.8%,36/121). Compared to normoglycemia group, ratio of intra-operative transfusion case was higher (P=0.001), operative time was longer (P=0.026), ratio of number of anastomosis >2 was higher (P=0.001), ratio of receiving laparoscopic-assisted operation was lower (P=0.005), ratio of postoperative surgical site infection was higher (P=0.006), incidence of anastomotic leakage was higher (P=0.004), ratio of re-operation was higher (P=0.004), intestinal nutrition recovery time was longer (P=0.001), ICU stay was longer (P=0.001), total hospitalization time was longer (P=0.000) and hospitalization cost was more expensive (P=0.000) in both two hyperglycemia groups. Multivariate regression analysis showed that mild hyperglycemia and severe hyperglycemia were independent risk factors to predict surgical site infection (OR=1.99, 95%CI: 1.12 to 3.54, P=0.019; OR=3.02, 95%CI: 1.36 to 6.70, P=0.007) and anastomotic leakage (OR=7.59, 95%CI: 1.68 to 34.34, P=0.009; OR=13.4, 95%CI: 2.50 to 71.65, P=0.002). Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that intestinal recovery time of normoglycemia group was 2 days shorter and 3 days shorter, and hospitalization time of normoglycemia group was 2 days shorter and 10 days shorter as compared with mild hyperglycemia and severe hyperglycemia group, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Elevated postoperative BG is common in GI fistula patients receiving selective GI reconstruction. Postoperative hyperglycemia is significantly associated with surgical site infection, anastomotic leakage and prolonged intestinal recovery. BG control treatment should be recommended for those patients with postoperative hyperglycemia.</p>

Outcome of treatment of Y chromosome AZFc microdeletion patients / 北京大学学报(医学版)

Objective:To discuss the treatment options for patients with azoospermia factor (AZF)c microdeletion on Y chromosome.Methods:One hundred and eighty three patients,who were diagnosed as AZFc microdeletion on Y chromosome in Peking University Third Hospital,were recruited in our stu-dy.In order to get better treatment option for this kind of patients,we retrospectively analyzed their clinic data including the treatment process and pregnancy outcome and found out the characteristics of their se-men.Results:Among the 183 patients,sperms can be found in ejaculated semen in 105 patients (57.4%,105 /183).One hundred and three patients (98.1%,103 /105)were diagnosed as severe or extremely severe oligospermia.Regular medication was given to 98 patients,6 patients (6.1%,6 /98) of which got natural pregnancy.The other 99 patients who have sperms in their semen received intracyto-plasmic sperm injection (ICSI),68 patients (68.7%,68 /99)of which got pregnancy.Seventy eight patients were diagnosed as azoospermia among all the 183 patients.Forty nine patients received testicular sperm aspiration (TESA),and 21 patients choose to receive micro-TESE directly.Among the 49 patients with TESA,sperms were retrieved in 17 patients (34.7%,17 /49),and sperms were not retrieved in 32 patients (65.3%,32 /49),of which 12 patients (37.5%,12 /32)gave up treatment and 20 patients (62.5%,20 /32)choose micro-TESE.Among the 41 patients who choose to receive micro-TESE,ope-ration has been done on 19 patients,of which 11 patients (57.9%,11 /19)got sperms.Among the 11 patients,TESA has been done on 6 patients before micro-TESE,of which 4 patients (66.6%,4 /6)got sperms.ICSI has already been done on 7 azoospermia AZFc microdeletion patients who underwent micro-TESE,of which 4 patients (57.1%,4 /7)get pregnancy.Conclusion:AZFc microdeletion patients who had sperms were always diagnosed as severe or extremely severe oligospermia.ICSI was their first choice instead of drug therapy.For AZFc microdeletion patients who were diagnosed as azoospermia, TESA was one of their choices,however,the success rate is not high.Micro-TESE is still possible to get sperms even after the failure of TESA.Therefore,we may choose micro-TESE instead of TESA in some azoospermia patients in order to reduce surgical trauma on patients.

A comparative study between minimally invasive and traditional open surgery in treating patients with pancreatic body or tail lesions / 中华肝胆外科杂志

Objective To study the feasibility,safety,indications and possible advantages of minimally invasive surgery over traditional open surgery in treating pancreatic body or tail lesions.Methods From December 2009 to December 2014,the clinical data of 71 patients with lesions in pancreatic body or tail who underwent minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) or open distal pancreatectomy (ODP) at the General Surgery of Huadong Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.There were 22 patients in the MIDP group and 49 patients in the ODP group.The operations in 15 patients in the MIDP group were performed by the Da Vinci robot-assisted surgical system and 7 patients by laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy.Results The MIDP group had a shorter time to pass first flatus [(MIDP (2.5 ± 1.0) d vs ODP (3.5 ±1.0)d,P ＜ 0.05],and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(MIDP (15.2 ± 7.9) d vs ODP (23.4 ±21.2) d,P ＜ 0.05] than the ODP group.There were no significant differences on total pancreatic fistula rate [MIDP 45.5％ (10/22) vs ODP 55.1％ (27/49),P ＞ 0.05] and symptomatic postoperative pancreatic fistula rate [MIDP 18.2％ (4/22) vs ODP 18.4％ (9/49),P ＞ 0.05] between the two groups.The MIDP group had a significant longer operative time [MIDP (246.3 ±75.3)min vs ODP (168.1 ±33.7)min,P＜0.05] than the ODP group.Conclusions Minimally invasive surgery is safe and feasible in treatment of lesions in pancreatic body or tail with less trauma and faster recovery.The application of robotic surgery has expanded the treatment options for lesions in pancreatic body or tail.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the impact of the regeneration of interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC) on the conduction of slow wave and gastric emptying in rats undergoing Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Twenty male SD rats were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group consisted of ten rats undergoing Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy. The control group only underwent pyloric transection and anastomosis. Gastric scintigraphy was performed in the two groups respectively to measure the half time of gastric emptying (t1/2) at sixteen weeks after the surgical manipulations, and then the myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis were recorded. The study also observed the regeneration of ICC by the electron microscopy. The data of the 2 groups was compared by t test.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In the sixteenth postoperative week, the t1/2 was (23.5 ± 4.5) minutes for rats in the Roux-en-Y group and (10.2 ± 2.3) minutes for those in the control group, indicating delayed gastric emptying in the Roux-en-Y group (t=7.978, P=0.000), accompanied with the abnormal myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis. The morphological detection showed that ICC near the gastrojejunal anastomosis regenerated and reconstructed their network in the rats of the experimental group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The abnormal myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis, basing on the regeneration and reconstruction of ICC, may make a significant delay on the gastric emptying.</p>

Effects of fluid restriction in combination with small dose of norepinephrine on cerebral oxygen metabolism in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To evaluate the effects of fluid restriction in combination with small dose of norepinephrine on cerebral oxygen metabolism in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.Methods Forty elderly patients of both sexes,aged 65-80 yr,with body mass index of 18-24 kg/m2,of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ (NYHA Ⅰ or Ⅱ),with left ventricular ejection fraction≥50％,undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgery,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =20 each) using a random number table:routine fluid administration group (group S) and restricted fluid administration + small dose of norepinephrine group (group RN).In group S,lactated Ringer's solution was given routinely,ephedrine 5 mg (per time) was injected intravenously,and MAP was maintained ≥ 65 mmHg during operation.In group RN,lactated Ringer's solution was infused intravenously at 5 ml · kg-1 · h-1 starting from 30 min before anesthesia,norepinephrine was infused intravenously at 0.01-0.03 μg · kg-1 · min-1 after induction of anesthesia,and MAP was maintained ≥ 65 mmHg.Intraoperative blood loss was replaced with the equal volume of 6％ hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 sodium chloride injection in both groups.At 5 min before skin incision,1 and 2 h after skin incision and postanesthesia care unit discharge time,arterial and jugular bulb venous blood samples were obtained for blood gas analysis,and arterial oxygen content,jugular bulb venous oxygen content,arteriovenous oxygen content difference,cerebral oxygen extraction rate,and the ratio of cerebral blood flow to cerebral oxygen metabolic rate were calculated.Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in arterial oxygen content,jugular bulb venous oxygen content,arteriovenous oxygen content difference,cerebral oxygen extraction rate,and the ratio of cerebral blood flow to cerebral oxygen metabolic rate.Conclusion Fluid restriction combined with small dose of norepinephrine produces no effects on cerebral oxygen metabolism in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.

Comparison of pressor responses to ephedrine during general anesthesia with different drugs / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To compare the pressor responses to ephedrine during general anesthesia with different drugs.Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,scheduled for elective gastrointestinal tumor resection under general anesthesia,aged 20-64 yr,weighing 45-90 kg,were included in this study.The patients were randomized to receive dexmedetomidine + remifentanil + sevoflurane (group Ⅰ,n =20),propofol + remifentanil + sevoflurane (group Ⅱ,n =20),or dexmedetomidine + propofol + remifentanil + sevoflurane (group Ⅲ,n =20) to maintain the depth of anesthesia.Ephedrine 0.1 mg/kg was injected intravenously when the systolic blood pressure (SBP) was decreased to about 90 mm Hg during anesthesia.Blood pressure was monitored and recorded at 1-min intervals for 10 min after the injection.The onset time (TSBP,TDBP,TMAP) for ephedrine to raise the SBP,diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) and the maximal amplitude (△SBP,△DBP,△MAP) were also recorded.Results Compared with Ⅱ group,TSBP,TDBP and TMAP were significantly shortened,and △SBP,△DBP and △MAP were increased in Ⅰ and Ⅲ groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with propofol + remifentanil + sevoflurane combined anesthesia,dexmedetomidine + remifentanil + sevoflurane combined anesthesia and dexmedetomidine + propofol + remifentanil + sevoflurane combined anesthesia augment the pressor responses to ephedrine in patients.

The relationship between vascular endothelial growth factor C and recurrence following curative resection of pancreatic cancer / 中华肝胆外科杂志

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) and clinicopathologic indexes in predicting recurrence following curative resection of pancreatic cancer. Methods The expressions of VEGF-C of 47 patients who underwent curative resection for curative pancreatic cancer resection were detected by Envision immunohistochemical methods. The effects of VEGF-C and clinicopathologic indexes on recurrence were assessed by the Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards model. Results The positive rates of VEGF-C were 61. 7% in = 29) and 14. 9%(n = 7), respectively, in pancreatic cancer and normal pancreatic tissues. The positive expression of VEGF-C in pancreatic carcinoma was obviously higher than the normal pancreatic tissues (P = 0. 018). The median disease-free survival time was 11. 9 months, the average disease-free survival time was 18. 4 + 2. 4 months, and the cumulative 1-year, 2-year and 3-year actuarial recurrence free survival rates were 46. 8%, 23. 4%, 14. 4%, respectively. There was a significant correlation between the VEGF-C expression and lymph node metastasis in pancreatic cancer (P = 0. 036). On Kaplan-Meier analysis, VEGF-C (P = 0. 020), tumor diameter (P = 0. 013), age (P = 0. 057) and adjuvant chemotherapy (P=0. 017) were associated with disease-free survival time. Multivariate analysis showed VEGF-C (P = 0. 009), tumor diameter (P = 0. 010) and adjuvant chemotherapy (P = 0. 017)were independent prognostic factors of disease-free survival after surgery for pancreatic cancer.Conclusion The expression of VEGF-C was higher in pancreatic cancer, and VEGF-C was correlated with lymph node metastasis. VEGF-C was the biomarker that independently predicted disease-free survival after surgery for pancreatic cancer.

Expression and significant of EphA2、 EphrinAl and E-cadherin in pancreatic carcinoma / 中华肝胆外科杂志

Objective To investigate the relationship between EphA2, EphrinAl and E-cadherin expressions and tumor stage and prognosis in pancreatic cancer. Method EphA2, EphrinAl and Ecadherin expressions were detected by immunohistochemistry in the tumor tissue and normal tissue specimens from 48 patients with primary pancreatic cancer. Results The expressions of EphA2 and EphrinAl were higher in the pancreatic carcinoma tissues than in the normal pancreatic tissues (P<0. 05). The E-cadherin expression was lower in the pancreatic cancer tissues than in the normal pancreatic tissues (P<0. 05). With decreasing histological differentiation, the expressions of EphA2 and EphrinAl in carcinoma tissues increased significantly (P<0. 05), while the E-cadherin expression decreased significantly (P<0. 05). The positive expressions of EphA2 and EphrinAl in the primary tumor significantly increased in stageⅢ and Ⅳ than in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ (47. 9%vs 6. 25% , P<0. 05;47. 9% vs 8. 3%, P<0. 05), while the negative expression of E-cadherin was reversely correlated with these tumor stages (14. 6% vs 64. 6%, P<0. 05). Cox multivariate analysis showed that the clinical stage, EphA2 positive expression and E-cadherin negative expression were significantly associated with survival. Conclusion Abnormal expressions of EphA2, EphrinAl and E-cadherin were involved in the progression of pancreatic cancer and they were useful in predicting prognosis.

Minimally invasive surgery for gallbladder polyps / 中国现代普通外科进展

Objective: Gallbladder polyps are frequently discovered in the past decade. Ifthe polyps are oenign,without concomitant stone and the gallbladder has a good function, it is not an absolutely indication for cholecystectomy. For this reason percutaneous endoscopio polypectomy of the gallbladden polyps were developed and applied. Methods: Among those who underwent peroutaneous endosoopic polypectomy of the gallbladder, 85 patients with gallblaeder polyps were studied. Under the epidural anesthesia, cholecystoscope was introduced into the gallbladder. The polyps were coagulated by self-made miorowave ceagulator and then resected for histopathelogical evaluation. The preserved gallbladders were followed up to evaluate the effioacy of this minimally invasive therapy. Results: All precedures were eventful with mean operation time of 1h to 1. 5h. Sixty seven patients were followed-up for a mean of 5.5 yeah (2～9 years) and showed all patients to be symptom free and in 64 cases the gallbladder function was found to be well preserved without recurrence of polyps and occurrenca of gallstones on ultraSound. Conclusion: The procedure reposed is a reliable, simple,effective and minimally invasive technique to remove gallbledder polyps and to preserve gallbladder function for the patients who have the benign gallbladder polyps.

The expression and localization of neurokinin-3 receptor in pancreatic carcinoma / 中国普通外科杂志

Objective To investigate the expression of neurokinin 3 receptor (NK 3R) in normal pancreas and pancreatic cancer, and to study the localization of this receptor in pancreatic cancer Methods The expression of NK 3R mRNA was investigated using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR) in normal pancreas and pancreatic cancer tissues The protein level of NK 3R was investigated by Western blot Immunohistochemistry was used to localize expression site of NK 3R Results NK 3R mRNA was overexpressed in pancreatic cancer tissue when compared with normal pancreas NK 3R protein was 1 1?0 5 in normal pancreas and 14 6?3 6 in pancreatic cancer, P

Splenic autotransplantation in rabbits: no restoration of response to host defense / 中国现代普通外科进展

Objective:TO explore the effectiveness of splenic tissue autotransplantation in restoring host defense. Methods: Rabbits were divided into three groups,Sham Operation(SO), Splenic Autotransplantation(SA)and Total Splenectomy(TS), and dynamic changes in histology and immunology were observed for over 24 weeks. Results: Histologic study shows that the white pulps were poorly developed and central arterioles disappeared in the regenerated splenic tissue. The weight of regenerated spleens recovered six months later in SA was 11% of that in SO, and was significantly reduced comparing with the implanted weight( P ＜0.05). Tere were no significant difference in the number of T lymphocytes and the levels of serum lysozyme among the three groups. A poor antibody response by the rabbits of SA and TS as compared to those of SO was noted after the primary intravenous administration with sheep red blood cells. After the challenge with type 3 pneumococci intravenously, pneumococcal clearance from bloodstream in SA did not differ significantly from that in TS,but was marKedly delayed compared with that in SO(P＜0.01). Conclusion: The results indicate that the low quantity and poor quality of the regenerated spleens may contribute to the inferior immunoprotective ability of 1/3 splenic autotransplantation. Therefore, it implies that the regenerated spleens can not fully compensate the original one in im-munology, especially, host resistance to infection.
