ABSTRACT
Objective: To provide reference for clinical application of liquid plasmatrix, and to investigate the optimal centrifugation time of liquid plasmatrix prepared by horizontal centrifugation for soft tissue regeneration from the aspects of mechanical properties, biological properties, and the effect of promoting soft tissue regeneration. Methods: Venous blood was collected from 6 healthy volunteers [3 males and 3 females, aged (26±2) years, with informed consent] who volunteered to donate blood at School of Stomatology, Wuhan University from September to November 2021. The collected venous blood was centrifuged at 500 ×g for 3, 5, 8 and 12 min to obtain liquid plasmatrix. The volume, weight, solidification time, and mechanical properties of liquid plasmatrix prepared at different centrifugation time were measured and recorded (the sample size at each time point was 3). The microstructure of different groups of liquid plasmatrix clot was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The rheological properties of each group of liquid plasmatrix clot were measured by rheological test. The number and concentration of cells in the whole blood group and in each liquid plasmatrix group were measured using complete blood count test. The distribution of cells in the liquid plasmatrix clots was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The effect of control group (Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 20% fetal bovine serum) and liquid plasmatrix clot exudates in 3, 5, 8, 12 min group (the sample size at each time point was 3) on gingival fibroblast migration was detected by cell migration method. Finally, the effects of control group and liquid plasmatrix clot exudates on the morphology of gingival fibroblasts were observed by fluorescence microscope. Results: The volume of liquid plasmatrix in 3, 5, 8 and 12 min group were approximately (2.47±0.12), (2.67±0.12), (3.53±0.12) and (3.73±0.12) ml, respectively. The weight of liquid plasmatrix in 3, 5, 8 and 12 min group were approximately (0.35±0.01), (0.46±0.02), (0.88±0.06) and (1.03±0.01) g, respectively. The maximum tensile force of liquid plasmatrix clots in 3, 5, 8 and 12 min group were (0.55±0.03), (0.56±0.03), (1.31±0.05) and (1.38±0.02) N, respectively. SEM results showed that the fibers inside the liquid plasmatrix clot became denser with increased centrifugation time. Compared with other groups, the concentrations of leukocytes, neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes in 8 min group were the highest, and the distribution of cell was more even. Compared with other groups, the efficiency of stimulating gingival fibroblast migration in 8 min group was the best (1.60±0.01). Fluorescence staining test showed that the liquid plasmatrix clot exudates could make gingival fibroblasts more stretched compared with control group. Conclusions: The present study shows that liquid plasmatrix prepared by centrifugation with 500 ×g centrifugal force for 8 min has higher concentration of viable cells and the ability to promote the migration of gingival fibroblasts.

Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of disease-syndrome combination therapy for anovulatory infertility through randomized controlled trial, thus to provide high-level evidence-based medical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of WHO typeⅡovulation disorder infertility. Methods Eighty-six patients with WHO typeⅡovulation disorder infertility were randomized into treatment group and control group , 43 cases in each group. Both groups were given the treatment for correcting endocrinic disorder if necessary. Additionally, by following the principle of combination of disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation , Zhuyun Recipe 1, Zhuyun Recipe 2, and Zhuyun Recipe 3 were separately given orally to the patients with kidney-yang deficiency (WHO type Ⅱ ovulation disorder without PCOS), patients with liver-kidney insufficiency(WHO typeⅡovulation disorder complicated with hyperandrogenitic lean-PCOS),and patients with kidney-deficiency complicated with phl egm-dampness (WHO type Ⅱ ovulation disorder complicated with insulin-resistant obesity-PCOS) in the treatment group respectively. The patients in the control group was given oral use of the first-rate ovulation induction drug Clomiphene. The treatment covered 3 menstruation cycles. Ovulation rate,pregnancy rate and alive fetus rate were used as the indicators for evaluating the effectiveness,and the safety was also monitored. Results(1)Of the 86 cases,5 cases dropped out(loss to follow-up or being excluded),with the drop-out rate being 6%. Of the 5 drop-out cases,3 were from the control group,and 2 were from the treatment group. (2)Ovulation rate of the treatment group was 70.7%,and that of the control group was 85.0%. The ovulation rate of the two groups was enhanced,but the difference between the two groups was insignificant(P > 0.05).(3)Pregnancy rate of the treatment group was 51.2%,and that of the control group was 30.0%, the differen ce being significant between the two groups(P < 0.05).(4)Alive fetus rate of the treatment group was 45.2%,and that of the control group was 22.5%,the difference being significant between the two groups(P < 0.05).(5)No adverse reaction was found in the two groups during the treatment. Conclusion The disease-syndrome combination therapy for WHO type Ⅱanovulatory infertility shows the advantages of higher pregnancy rate and alive fetus rate, which makes up for the disadvantages of low pregnancy rate and high abortion rate of Clomiphene.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To investigate the effect of vitrectomy in treatment of metal intraocular foreign bodies and the factors affecting visual prognosis. METHODS:Fourty seven cases ( 48 eyes ) with foreign bodies from January 2010 to June 2013 in our hospital underwent vitrectomy combined with intraocular foreign body removal were retrospectively analyzed. The changes of visual acuity, the size of foreign body, the complications of preoperative, and the relationship between treatment time and visual acuity were recorded.RESULTS: Totally 46 eyes were successfully removed the complete foreign body, 2 eyes of orbital foreign bodies had not been removed. After 6mo of followed-up, the best corrected visual acuity were all improved in varying degrees (P CONCLUSION:Vitrectomy has obvious advantages in the treatment of metal intraocular foreign bodies. Timely and appropriate vitrectomy is very important to the recovery of visual function.
