ABSTRACT
Under the combination of postgraduate education and standardized medical residents training, via exploring current situation, we put forward the limitations of routine rotation training, disconnection of theory and practice, inefficient of scientific ability. We arouse a new model by improving teaching model, enriching teaching content, optimizing teaching method, making better arrangement of rotations and cultivating scientific ability to provide references for enhancing the ability of clinical thinking, practice, scientific research and communication.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the safety and clinical effect of pancreaticoduodenectomy with total mesopancreas excision (TMpE) versus traditional pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in the treatment of pancreatic head carcinoma and periampullary cancer. MethodsPubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP were searched for the Chinese and English articles on the clinical effect of TMpE and PD in the treatment of pancreatic head carcinoma and periampullary cancer published from January 2007 to February 2020. Quality assessment was performed for the articles included, and Revman 5.3 software was used to perform the Meta-analysis. ResultsFive retrospective cohort studies were included after screening, with a total of 358 patients, among whom 188 underwent TMpE and 170 underwent PD. The results of the meta-analysis showed that compared with the PD group, the TMpE group had a significant increase in the incidence rate of pancreatic fistula (odds ratio ［OR］=1.69, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 1.03-2.78, P=0.04), while there was no significant difference in the incidence rate of postoperative complications between the two groups (OR=1.51, 95% CI: 0.76-2.98, P=0.24). In addition, TMpE improved R0 resection rate (OR=2.89, 95% CI: 1.30-6.43, P=0.009), number of dissected lymph nodes (mean difference ［MD］=5.14, 95% CI: 4.16-6.13, P＜0.001), and 1-year survival rate after surgery (OR=260, 95% CI: 1.45-4.69, P=0.001), without increasing the time of operation (MD=7.74, 95% CI: -42.84 to 58.33, P=076), intraoperative blood loss (MD = -45.89, 95% CI: -198.19 to 106.41, P=0.55), and the length of postoperative hospital stay (MD=-4.62, 95% CI: -16.60 to 7.36, P=0.45). ConclusionTMpE is safe and feasible in the treatment of pancreatic head carcinoma and periampullary cancer and has the advantages of high R0 resection rate and 1-year survival rate after surgery, and therefore, it may become a preferred treatment method for pancreatic head carcinoma and periampullary cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect and related mechanism of microRNA (miR)-494 on the hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI). Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups (n=6 in each group). In the sham operation group, abdominal surgery without hepatic ischemia-reperfusion was performed. In the HIRI group, partial liver ischemia was performed for 60 min, followed by 6 h perfusion. In the HIRI+agomir-miR-494 group, intraperitoneal injection of agomir-miR-494 (20 μL) was daily given within preoperative 7 d. In HIRI+agomir-NC group, an equivalent quantity of agomir-NC was daily injected intraperitoneally within preoperative 7 d. The expression level of miR-494 messenger RNA(mRNA) in the liver tissues in each group was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The expression levels of liver injury and oxidative stress related indexes were measured by relevant kits. The histopathological changes of the liver in each group were observed. The quantity of apoptotic cells and cytoplasmic histone-related DNA fragments in the liver tissues of rats was detected by relevant kits. The expression levels of the proteins related to the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase(AKT) signaling pathway were measured by Western blot. Results The expression level of miR-494 mRNA in the rat liver tissues in the HIRI+agomir-miR-494 group was significantly higher than that in the HIRI+agomir-NC group (P < 0.01). The levels of the serum liver injury and oxidative stress related indexes in the HIRI+agomir-miR-494 group were significantly lower than those in the HIRI+agomir-NC group (all P < 0.01). Compared with those in the HIRI+agomir-NC group, the quantity of cellular necrosis was significantly reduced, the cell integrity was considerably increased and the quantity of TUNELpositive cells was evidently decreased in the HIRI+agomir-miR-494 group (all P < 0.05). The expression levels of poly ADP-ribose polymerase(PARP), cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3(Caspase-3) and Bax in the HIRI+agomirmiR-494 group were significantly lower than those in the HIRI+agomir-NC group (all P < 0.05). The quantity of DNA fragments in the HIRI+agomir-miR-494 group was significantly less than that in the HIRI+agomir-NC group (P < 0.01). The expression levels of p-AKT, p-mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR) and p-p70S6K in the HIRI+agomir-miR-494 group were significantly higher than those in the HIRI+agomir-NC group (all P < 0.05). Conclusions miR-494 can alleviate the severity of HIRI in rats by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
ABSTRACT
To observe the migration of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) labeled with PKH26 in the endometrium of rats intrauterine adhesion. hAMSCs were isolated, identified and labeled with PKH26 to detect the biological characteristics of the cells. Rat intrauterine adhesion models were established using mechanical and infective method and PKH26-labeled hAMSCs were transplanted through the tail vein. The distribution of PKH26 labeled hAMSCs in the endometrium of rats were observed with the fluorescence confocal microscope. The results showed that PKH26 stain had no significant effect on cell activity, cycle, apoptosis and so on. PKH26-labeled positive cells were mainly distributed in injured endometrium of rats. It shows that the PKH26 labeling technique is a safe and effective method for tracing the human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of intrauterine adhesions.
