ABSTRACT

At present,mechanical thrombectomy(MT)is the most effective means of achieving vascular recanalization in treating acute ischemic stroke(AIS)caused by large vessel occlusion.However,the monitoring and management of the patient's complications after MT has become a thorny clinical problem and it has attracted wide attention.Being of its non-invasive,flexible and quick diagnosis,and other advantages,the neurosonography has already established a perfect system in the evaluation and monitoring field of cerebral hemodynamic and structural pathology.With the innovation in technology and equipment,the guiding mode for non-invasive monitoring of intracranial pressure,autoregulation of cerebral blood flow,monitoring of intracranial hemorrhage and detection of other space-occupying lesions has been used for AIS patients,which has gradually become an important tool for the postoperative management of MT.This paper aims to make a comprehensive review about the application of neurosonography monitoring technology in AIS patients after MT,so as to provide a basis for the clinical implementation of prospective interventions,to enable AIS patients to obtain the maximum benefits from the postoperative management of MT,and to reduce the mortality of AIS patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate whether etomidate affects inflammatory response and apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by hypoxia by regulating miR-142-3p.Methods:PC12 cells were pretreated with different doses(2,6,12 μmol/L)of etomidate to establish hypoxia model;PC12 cells that transfected with miR-142-3p mimics or inhibitors were pretreated with 0 or 12 μmol/L of etomidate to establish hypoxia model.Cell viability,apoptosis and protein(CyclinD1,Cleaved-caspase-3)expressions were detected by CCK-8 method,flow cytometry and Western blot,respectively.ELISA was used to detect levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6.Expression of miR-142-3p was detected by RT-qPCR.Results:Etomidate increased hypoxia-induced PC12 cells activity and expres-sion of CyclinD1 protein and miR-142-3p,while decreased cell apoptosis rate,Cleaved-caspase-3 protein expression and levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6(P<0.05).Up-regulation of miR-142-3p increased activity and expression of CyclinD1 pro-tein of hypoxia-induced PC12 cells,while decreased cell apoptosis rate,Cleaved-caspase-3 protein expression and levels of inflamma-tory factors TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6(P<0.05).Down-regulation of miR-142-3p reversed effects of etomidate on hypoxia-induced PC12 cell activity,apoptosis and expressions of inflammatory factors(P<0.05).Conclusion:Etomidate can reduce inflammatory response and apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by hypoxia,and its mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of miR-142-3p expression in cells.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate 3D imaging technology in the preoperative evaluation of breast conserving surgery. Methods: A ret-rospective analysis was conducted using clinical data from 38 patients who underwent breast conserving surgery that was assisted by 3D imaging technology in Xiaogan Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University of Science and Technology from April 2017 to January 2019. All 38 patients underwent 3.0-T breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination before surgery, and 3D reconstruction of virtu-al images was constructed through 3D modeling of medical digital imaging and communication (DICOM) data. The predicted resected tissue volume was compared with the volume of the actual resected specimen, and the surgical margin and postoperative aesthetics of the breast conserving surgery were evaluated. Results: The reconstructed 3D model clearly displayed the anatomical structures of the breast, tumor, gland, and blood vessels, and their relationship in 3D spaces. The goodness of fit of the 3D model to the practical sit-uation was 97.4% (37/38). In terms of the resection tissue volume, there was no significant difference between the predicted results (PRTV) and actual results (ARTV) [(61.7 ± 20.1) mL vs. (65.1 ± 20.7) mL, P>0.05]. There was a strong positive correlation between ARTV and PRTV (P<0.01). One patient underwent supplementary secondary surgery, resulting in an incidence of 2.6% (1/38). The postopera-tive satisfaction for breast conserving surgery was 100% (38/38). Conclusions: 3D imaging technology clearly displays the anatomical relationship between breast tumor and surrounding tissues, and correctly assesses breast volume, guiding surgical resection.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To explore the clinical effects of expanded forehead flaps in repairing midfacial defects.@*Methods@#From January 2003 to December 2018, 19 patients with midfacial defects were admitted to our unit, including 8 males and 11 females, aged 7 to 52 years. One cylindrical expander with rated capacity ranged from 100 to 170 mL was placed in the forehead of patients in the first stage of expansion, and the total water injection volume was about 2 times of the rated capacity of the expander during 1 to 2 months. The area of midfacial defects was 4 cm×2 cm to 9 cm×5 cm after resection in the second stage surgery. Expanded forehead flaps with vascular pedicle of supratrochlear vessels or frontal branch of superficial temporal vessels were used to repair the midfacial defects, with flap size ranging from 5 cm×2 cm to 16 cm×6 cm. The donor sites were closed by direct suturing. Three weeks later, the pedicle was divided. The complications, blood supply after flap transfer and pedicle division, and the treatment effects during follow-up were observed.@*Results@#Among the patients, flaps of 11 patients had vascular pedicle of supratrochlear vessels; flaps of 8 patients had vascular pedicle of frontal branch of superficial temporal vessels. All the flaps survived with no complications and good blood supply after flap transfer and pedicle division. During the follow-up of 6 to 12 months after the third stage surgery of pedicle division of 12 patients, no lower eyelid ectropion occurred, the appearance of the flaps was similar to the surrounding tissue with no swelling.@*Conclusions@#The application of expanded forehead flaps can not only repair the defects but also effectively avoid the complication of lower eyelid ectropion, which is a promising method in repairing midfacial defects.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the mRNA expressions of various CD97 isoforms in colorectal carcinoma tissues and their clinical significances. Methods A total of 50 colon cancer patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from December 2013 to May 2014 and human colon cancer cell lines SW480 and SW620 were enrolled. The real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expressions of CD97 human epidermal growth factor (EGF) (1, 2, 5), CD97EGF (1, 2, 3, 5) and CD97EGF (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) in colon cancer tissues, adjacent tissues, normal colon tissues, SW480 cells and SW620 cells. The relationship between the mRNA expression of CD97EGF (1, 2, 5) and the clinicopathological factors was analyzed. Results Compared with those low expressions in adjacent tissues and normal tissues, the mRNA expressions of CD97 isoforms CD97EGF (1, 2, 5), CD97EGF (1, 2, 3, 5) and CD97EGF (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) in cancer tissues were highest, and the differences were statistically significant (0.71±0.20 vs. 0.40±0.09 vs. 0.35±0.07, F=107.642, P<0.01;0.45±0.11 vs. 0.26±0.05 vs. 0.27±0.06, F=94.231, P< 0.01; 0.41±0.10 vs. 0.21±0.05 vs. 0.19±0.03, F= 165.672, P< 0.01). In addition, the mRNA expression of CD97EGF (1, 2, 5) in colon cancer patients was associated with tumor infiltration depth (T1-T2 and T3-T4), clinical stages (Ⅰ-Ⅱ and Ⅲ-Ⅳ), and the differences were statistically significant (t= -2.582, P= 0.013; t= -5.062, P< 0.01). The mRNA expression of CD97EGF (1, 2, 5) in SW620 cells was higher than that in SW480 cells. Conclusions CD97 isoforms are highly expressed in colon cancer tissues, and CD97EGF (1, 2, 5) may play an important role in the development and invasion of colon cancer. The CD97 isoforms may be new markers in the treatment of colon cancer.

ABSTRACT

Objective To develop new repairing techniques for acquired inferior palpebral region defects. Methods Expanded forehead flaps were used to reconstruct the inferior palpebral defects or post-excision wound surface and the flaps were pedicled with supra-trochlea vessels or ramus frontalis arteriae temporalis superficialis. As for supra-trochlea vessels, contralateral ones were prior to the homolateral ones. The incision site located in the scalp and the major axis of the expander parallel to the forehead. Firstly, the leisions were cut and the subcutaneous tissues loosed to regain the anatomy position of inferior palpebra. Secondly, the expanded flaps were transfered onto the defects by the wound sizes with the supra-trochlea vessels as their pedicles. At last, the pedicles were cut 3 weeks later.For ramus frontalis arteriae temporalis superficialis, the flap was transfered with a subdermal pedicle and the donor site was closed directly. Results There were 10 cases in the present group, 6 for supratrochlea vessels and the 4 others for ramus frontalis arteriae temporalis superficialis. All the flaps survived successfully. 3 cases returned with optimistic outcomes 6 months later. Conclusion The expanded forehead flaps are fit for repairing the inferior palpebral defects, which can successfully avoid ectropion. This technique is very useful for reconstructing the texture of the site of defects.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Recent studies have demonstrated that growth factor, as a molecular signal, regulates cellular proliferation, differentiation, immigration and metabolism. Its expression and regulation play an important role in the chronic wound healing.OBJECTrVE: To observe the effect of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on the expression of VEGF receptor (VEGFR), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) mRNA in wound tissue, and elucidate the mechanism of VEGF in promoting wound healing.DESrGN: Controlled animal experiment.SETTING: Department of Plastic Surgery, Xijing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. MATERIALS: Six New Zealand rabbits, aged 48-60 months, were involved in the experiment. Nanosphere-coated recombinant plasmid DNA eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1/myc-hisA-VEGF166 was donated by Master Jia Ning, who was from Department of Plastic Surgery, Xijing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. METHODS: This experiment was carried out in the laboratory of Department of Plastic Surgery, Xijing Hospital from October 2004 to June 2005. ①VEGF (VEGF165) was taken as target gene to construct eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1/myc-hisA- VEGF165. Nanosphere- VEGF165 complex was used. Three round excisional wounds, 6 mm in diameter, were created over the ventral surface of ears of anesthetized rabbits, and cartilage was exposed. Gelatin sponge thin slice dipping 100 μL nanosphere-VEGF165 complex was spread on unilateral wounds of each rabbit, and aseptic sealing membrane was spread on outer layer, serving as VEGF group; Gelatin sponge thin slice dipping 100 μL nanosphere without plasmid load was spread on contralateral wound, serving as control group; Skin of rabbit ear subterminal to circumcise region served as normal group. ② At postoperative 14 days, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to observe the changes in the expression of VEGFR, bFGF and PDGF mRNA in wound tissue. ③ At postoperative 14 days, wound was took as center, and square tissue mass with size of 1 cm×1 cm (full-thickness rabbit ear included) was excised and prepared into sample, then which was stained by haematoxylin & eosin (HE). Under the optical microscope, the growth of newly regenerated granulation tissue was observed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Expression of VEGFR, bFGF and PDGF mRNA in wound tissue. RESULTS: ①HE staining results showed the growth speeds of granulation tissue and epithelium tissue in VEGF group were obviously faster than those in the control group. ②RT-PCR detected a significantly higher expression of VEGFR, bFGF and PDGF mRNA in the wound tissues in VEGF group than that in the control group (P < 0.05) and normal group (P< 0.01).CONCLUSION: Exogenous VEGF up-regulates the expression of VEGFR, bFGF and PDGF mRNA in wound tissue. VEGF may act on its receptor and play an important role in promoting wound healing through its interaction with other cytokines.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the possibility to fabricate a blood vessel scaffold with a combined polymer for tissue engineering.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A blood vessel scaffold was designed with a combined polymer composed of rabbit vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs), collagen and a non-spinning fabric mesh of polyglycolic acid (PGA). VSMCs were implanted into collagen gel and their growth was observed. The mixed solution of VSMCs and collagen was dropped into the tubular scaffold, followed by 7-day culturing.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>VSMCs formed many prominences after culturing in gelatinous collagen for 3-4 hours. With cells extending, some cells became shuttle- or spindle-shaped. After VSMCs-collagen complex was implanted into the PGA mesh, most of VSMCs remained in the pore of PGA mesh with the formation of gelation. VSMCs could adhere to and grow on the PGA fiber.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The non-spinning PGA porous biodegradable material coated with collagen is a good carrier for VSMCs to adhere and grow.</p>
