ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) combined with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell transplantation on motor function recovery in rats with spinal cord injury.Methods:The mesenchymal stem cells were irradiated with a laser energy density of 1.5, 3, 6 and 12 J/cm 2. The optimal energy density was screened by the MTT method on the 3rd day. Before cell transplantation, 32 male SD rats were randomly divided into the spinal cord injury group, which was injected with normal saline without cells; the stem cell transplantation group, which was injected with stem cells in the injury model; the laser irradiation group, which was injected with cell-free saline and laser irradiation; and the combined treatment group, which was treated with cell transplantation and laser irradiation. BBB score and inclined plate test were performed on the 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st day, and hematoxylin-eosin staining and Nissl staining were performed on the 21st day. Results:The laser irradiation with an energy density of 12 J/cm 2 can accelerate cell proliferation ( P<0.05). After the modeling, the BBB score of the combined treatment group was higher than that of the other groups (all P<0.05), and the motor function recovered significantly. In the inclined plate experiment, the performance of the combined treatment group and the laser irradiation group was also better than that of other groups. The results of hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that the cavity area in the combined treatment group was significantly reduced, and the inflammatory reaction was the lightest. The staining of Nissl bodies became deeper, and the spinal cord injury was significantly reduced. Conclusions:PBM can promote the recovery of motor function in rats with spinal cord injury after the transplantation of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells, and has an obvious therapeutic effect on spinal cord injury in rats. This study provides a basis for the treatment of spinal cord injury.

Anemia often occurs in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, which increases the incidence and related risks of blood transfusion together with surgical bleeding.Both anemia and transfusion were associated with poor prognosis and increased mortality.Current practice guidelines generally recommend the implementation of patient blood management (PBM), which relies on anemia management and restrictive transfusion to reduce perioperative blood loss and transfusion rate, and improve the prognosis of patients.This article reviews recent research progress of anemia management and blood transfusion in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery, in order to provide basis for the practice of PBM in cardiac surgery patients in the future.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To evaluate the effect of multi-disciplinary patient blood management(PBM) on perioperative blood transfusion in patients with cardiothoracic surgery of gradeⅢ~Ⅳ. 【Methods】 The blood transfusion data and relevant clinical information of adult patients underwent grade Ⅲ~Ⅳ cardiothoracic surgeries before and after PBM (from January 2016 to December 2018)in our hospital were collected using Hospital Information System and Management System of Blood Transfusion Department. Patients were grouped according to three separate12-month periods: 933 cases subjected to conventional blood transfusion practice from Jan. to Dec.2016 as the control group, 1 139 cases experienced initial implement PBM(started on Jan.1, 2017)from Jan. to Dec.2017 as the early PBM group, and 1 411 cases received improved PBM from Jan. to Dec.2018 as the improved PBM group. The perioperative autotransfusion rate, allogeneic transfusion rate, length of hospital stay and hospitalization expenses of the three groups were compared by χ2 test and variance analysis. 【Results】 The comparison results among control group, early PBM group and improved PBM group were as following: 1) The proportion of patients using iron and EPO to treat preoperative anemia were 15.12%(44/291)vs 19.73%(72/365)vs 26.65%(125/469)(P<0.01) and 10.31%(30/291)vs 12.33%(40/365)vs 15.57%(73/469)(P<0.05), respectively. 2) The incidence of autotransfusion were 57.98%(541/933)vs 44.76%(544/1 139)vs 37.00%(522/1 411)(P<0.01). The allogeneic transfusion volume per capita(U) were 351.91±35.85 vs 392.76±43.33 vs 421.75±73.84(P<0.05). The incidence of allogeneic blood transfusion were 18.11%(169/933)vs 17.56%(200/1 139)vs 13.32%(188/1 411)(P<0.01). The allogeneic blood transfusion volume per capita (U) were 6.56±8.33 vs 5.52±6.28 vs 5.56±6.17(P<0.01). 3) The per capita hospital stay (d) and ICU stay (d) were19.54±16.56 vs 16.46±12.06 vs 15.11±10.18 and 4.45±9.31 vs 3.56±6.93 vs 3.26±5.29(P<0.05), respectively. The per capita hospitalization expenses (ten thousand yuan/person) were 10.76±8.39 vs 9.58±7.58 vs 9.13±5.9(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The application of PBM in perioperative blood transfusionfor adult cardiothoracic surgery Ⅲ ~ Ⅳcan significantly decrease the incidence of autologous and allogeneic blood transfusion, the length of hospitalstay and hospitalization expenses.
ABSTRACT
Despite improved perioperative management and surgical techniques, patients undergoing hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) surgery often need to be transfused. Although disadvantages of transfusion and advantages of patient blood management (PBM) have been recognized, study results of the effects of PBM in HBP surgery are rare. The aim of this article was to review the current status of PBM in Korea in patients having HBP surgery. PBM in HBP surgery consists of increasing preoperative hemoglobin level, preoperative blood conservation, and preoperative autologous blood donation. The main intraoperative modalities used to conserve blood in recent studies were autologous techniques of acute normovolemic hemodilution and intraoperative cell salvage (Cell Saver®). In postoperative PBM, blood augmentation with erythropoietin and iron are also used depending on the postoperative hemoglobin level. Advances in surgical, anesthesiologic and pharmacologic strategies have contributed to a reduction of blood loss during HBP surgery in all patients.

Anaemia is a common condition in Malaysia, and is mostly due to iron deficiency. In many cases, allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) is administered unnecessarily to treat anaemia. Patient blood management (PBM) is a concept whereby a patient becomes his or her “own blood bank”, instead of receiving ABT. The concept encompasses three pillars namely optimising erythropoiesis, minimising blood loss and harnessing human physiological reserve. We present a safe and fruitful outcome of managing severe anaemia without utilising any ABT, made possible with the PBM approach including administration of intravenous iron.
ABSTRACT
Aim To compare the pharmacological ac-tivity of icariin( ICA) and genistien ( GEN) against os-teoporosis after oral administration with them to growing rats and ovariectomized rats. Methods 25 mg·kg-1 icariin and 10 mg · kg-1 genistein ( equal in molar concentration) were administered to one-month-old fe-male SD rats every day for three months. Treatments at the same dosage were administered to the 6-month-old ovariectomized SD rats every day for three months. Their effects were compared on bone mineral density and biomechanical properties of femurs and vertebrae, serum levels of osteocalcin and tartaric acid phospha-tase 5b ( TRACP 5b) and histomorphometry. Results The results showed that, in young rats, icariin treat-ment significantly increased bone mineral density, the maximum mechanical loads of femurs and vertebrae as well as the bone qualities ( serum markers and microar-chitecture ) , whereas genistein treatment had little effects compared with the non-treatment control. How-ever, genistein treatment was more efficacious than icariin in preventing bone loss and deterioration of bone microarchitecture in ovariectomized rats. Conclusion Our data suggest that, since icariin has a higher os-teogenic activity but lower estrogenic activity, it has been found to be more efficacious than genistein in peak bone mass accrual only in young rats. In the ovariectimized rats, however, as the main force to pre-vent bone loss is the estrogenic activity, genistein has been found to be more efficacious than icariin in reduc-ing bone loss.
