Effects from Side Branch Diameter of Intracranial Aneurysm on Hemodynamic Parameters after Flow Diverter Implantation / 医用生物力学

Objective To comprehensively consider the effect of low diverter (FD) implantation on aneurysmal sac and its branches, so as to provide references for making a more reasonable surgical strategy for intracranial aneurysm embolization in clinical practice. Methods Based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method, the FD implantation procedure was simulated by using porous media model innovatively. Changes in hemodynamic parameters of aneurysmal sac and side branch with different diameters before and after FD implantation were compared and analyzed, such as blood flow field, velocity, wall pressure and wall shear stress (WSS). Results FD changed the hemodynamic characteristics of aneurysms. The blood flow velocity decreased significantly. The WSS on aneurysmal neck increased, while the difference of WSS between proximal and distal cervical area reduced conversely. Different side branch diameters of vessels had different effects on hemodynamic characteristic changes. The larger diameter would cause the greater blood flow reduction in side branch after FD implantation, but the decrease in velocity of aneurysmal sac and pressure on aneurysmal roof became smaller simultaneously. Meanwhile, the increase of WSS on aneurysmal neck was inversely proportional to the diameter of side branch. Conclusions The larger branch diameter of vessels would cause the worse effect of FD embolization therapy for intracranial aneurysm, worse atherosclerosis improvements and greater possibilities of branch occlusion or other ischemic complications. Doctors should pay more attention to such cases in FD interventional intravascular embolization in clinic.

Sensitivity Analysis of Flow Diverter Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysm Using Porous Media Model / 医用生物力学

Objective To simulate the hemodynamic effects of different flow diverters (FD) parameters by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technology, so as to develop a more reasonable FD embolization strategy before operation. Methods The porous media model was used to simulate the process of FD implantation into aneurysms, and the initial values of its own unique porous media momentum source parameters (permeability and inertial resistance) were calculated for a specific FD (Tubridge).The changes of hemodynamic parameters such as blood flow velocity, wall shear stress (WSS), volume flow and pressure of aneurysm-roof were compared under different situations (initial values of 80%, 90%, 100%, 110% and 120%), and the sensitivity analysis on hemodynamic parameters of patient-specific intracranial aneurysms (IA) for the porous media model was further conducted. Results The sensitivity of IA hemodynamic parameters to the permeability of porous media model was as follows: WSSparent-artery＞WSSaneurysm＞paneurysmal-roof, but the sensitivity to inertia resistance was relatively lower. Conclusions By using the porous media model, different metal coverages (MC) of FD could be simulated by choosing different permeability parameters, so it is necessary to adjust specific permeability settings during modeling of FD with different MC.

Objective: To investigate the functions of mitosiskinase budding uninhibited by benzimidazoles 1 (BUB1) for cell proliferation in glioblastoma (GBM). Methods: We investigated the expression level of BUB1 in GBM cells by analyzing TCGA database. Then Real-time PCR and Western blot were used to explore the role of BUB1 in proliferation of GBM cells via BUB1 silencing using siRNA transfection. Additionally, we investigated the correlation between BUB1 expression and prognosis of GBM patients. Results: BUB1 expression was significantly elevated in GBM patients, while artificial silencing of BUB1 attenuated the proliferation (P=0.007) and cloning formation of U87 cells (P=0.033). At the same time, improved prognosis could be observed in GBM patients with highly expressed BUB1 compared with those with lower BUB1 expression (P=0.040). Conclusion: Increased BUB1 expression promotes the growth and proliferation of GBM cells and is correlated with the poor prognosis of GBM patients.

Research progress of the open abdomen in the treatment of gastrointestinal fistula with complicated intra-abdominal infection / 中华胃肠外科杂志

Gastrointestinal fistula patients may suffer from complicated intra-abdominal infection and sepsis with improper treatment, which is characterized by high mortality ranging from 20% to 60%, as well as high medical costs. Gastrointestinal fistula patients with complicated intra-abdominal infections are not often diagnosed early, and proper treatment remains an unsolved problem. Therefore it is a great challenge for surgeons to repair broken intestines under complicated intra-abdominal infection conditions and to repair ruptured intestines under conditions of severe abdominal adhesions and swelling of the intestinal wall and mesentery. After the open abdominal approach was first adopted to treat complicated intra-abdominal infection patients by Duff and Moffat in 1981, it gradually began to be used more widely. However, some investigators have reported that the open abdomen approach has not been effective in controlling controlled mortality, instead, it may even increase mortality. For this reason, the approach has only been used in large medical centers rather than having been widely popularized. In this review, the effect, timing, indications of open abdomen approach and the principles for the open abdominal wound management are summarized, and the reason for the various efficacy among different centers is also analyzed. We provide a new perspective for clinicians to manage the gastrointestinal fistula patients with complicated intra-abdominal infection.

A magnetic resonance imaging study to compare structural changes of the temporomandibular joint disk during mandibular advancement between Angle Class Ⅰ and Class Ⅱ in adult males / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: Mandibular advancement devices are commonly used in patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome. But wearing with mandibular protraction appliance makes the mandible in an abnormal position, and inevitably affects the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). As one of the important components of the TMJ, can structural changes of the joint disk impair the TMJ? Are there any differences in the TMJ structure between Angle Class Ⅰ and Class Ⅱ? What will happen to the TMJ structure in the Angle Class Ⅰ and Class Ⅱ during mandibular advancement? Is there a same law of TMJ changes for Angle Class Ⅰ and Class Ⅱ? All of these are undetermined systematically. OBJECTIVE: To compare the changes in the structure of TMJ disk and the differences during mandible advancement between Angle Class Ⅰ and Class Ⅱ adult males. METHODS: Forty non-apnea adult males were divided into two groups (n=20 per group), including Class Ⅰ and Class Ⅱ groups, according to the Angle's classification and sagittal skeletal facial type. Each volunteer was scanned by MRI in three positions, including central occlusion (F0), 75% of the maximum mandible advancement (F75) and maximum of the mandible advancement (F100). These indexes that were correlated with morphology of the joint disk in different mandible advancement positions were measured and calculated by MRI, and then analyzed statistically. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In F0, the ratio of disk anterior displacement in the Class Ⅱ group was higher than that in the Class Ⅰ group (P< 0.01). The angle A was decreased as the mandible advanced in both groups from F0to F75(P < 0.01). The rotational angular dimension was increased as the mandible advanced, and the sizes from F0to F100were bigger than those from F0to F75(P < 0.05). Some differences existed in the structure of TMJ disk between Angle Class Ⅰ and Ⅱ adult males. In summary, appropriate mandibular advancement may play a positive role in patients with anterior displacement of the joint disk, but excessive mandible advancement is likely to impair the TMJ disk.
