RESUMO
As endogenous molecules, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) mainly include microRNAs and long ncRNAs, etc., which play an important role in the pathophysiological process of ischemic stroke, and especially have the function of regulating angiogenesis in the acute phase of ischemic stroke. This article reviews the related research progress of ncRNAs in angiogenesis in the acute phase of ischemic stroke in recent years, and provides new ideas for investigating the pathological mechanism of ischemic stroke and finding predictive indicators of the therapeutic effect of ischemic stroke.
RESUMO
Objective To discuss the application of cystic cavity flushing technique in percutaneous ethanol sclerotherapy for the thyroid colloid cysts.Methods A total of 49 patients with thyroid colloid cysts were randomly divided into the study group (n=33) and the control group (n=16).Patients in the study group received cystic cavity flushing treatment by using saline together with α-chymotrypsin,which was followed by percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI).Patients in the control group underwent simple aspiration of cyst fluid followed by PEI.The residual cystic volume,the effective rate and the untoward effects were calculated at one,3 and 6 months after the treatment,and the results were compared between the two groups.Results Striking difference in the changes of postoperative residual cystic volume existed between the study group and the control group.The effective rate of PEI in the study group was 93.9%,which was obviously better than 68.8% in the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05).No untoward effect was observed during the performance of aspiration of cyst fluid and flushing of cystic cavity.Nevertheless,bad side effect occurred in PEI procedure in both the study group (6.1%) and the control group (8.3%),but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.75).Conclusion For the treatment of thyroid colloid cysts,the use of aspiration of cyst fluid together with cystic cavity flushing technique by using saline combined with α-chymotrypsin is safe and reliable,it can improve the curative effect of subsequent PEI.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the predictive values of P-selectin (P-sel),thrombus precursor protein (TpP) and D-dimer (D-D) in the early diagnosis of portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in patients submitted to splenectomy (or to devascularization).Methods The clinical data of 48 patients with portal hypertension (the PVT group,n=26; and the non-PVT group,n=22) who received operation in our hospital from 2009 to 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.Detecting the P-sel,TpP and D-D levels in the two groups of patients were done on preoperative day 1 and postoperative day 1,3,5,7,14.The SPSS software was used for statistic analysis.Results There were no significant differences on the preoperative day 1 levels of P-sel,TpP and D-D in the two groups (P>0.05).The postoperative day1 levels of the three indicators in the PVT group were significantly higher than the non-PVT group (P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves showed the area under curve (AUC) of P-sel was largest (0.893),followed by D-D,and TpP.The combined detection of the 3 indicators was highest,with the AUC up to 0.977.Conclusions Combined detection of P-sel,D-D and TpP levels were useful in the early diagnosis of PVT after splenectomy in patients with portal hypertension.

It elaborates the importance of designing a patient-centered hospital environment, and presents the concept of such a design. The authors hold that such a concept is mostly composed of systematic, people-oriented, informationized and variability designs, and describe the design trends in contemporary hospitals. It is also pointed out that patient-centered principle should be dominant in building a contemporary hospital, as the guideline and development trend, as a satisfactory hospital environment makes a hospital more competitive.

Result:46/48 cases were cured breathing without tracheal cannula.Following-up survey is 1~12 years.Conclusion:The treatment of cicatriceal laryngotracheal atresia was difficult, but if the surgical methods were selected carefully according to the situation of each patient, we also can get a good result.
RESUMO
To investigate the formation of tissue engineered cartilage using polyglycolic acid (PGA) as three dimensional scaffold seeded with allogenic chondrocytes. First, chondrocytes were harvested from rib cartilage of one week old infant rabbits by collagenase digestion.The isolated cells were cultured in vitro for 2~3 generations, and then the cell suspension was concentrated. Next, the suspension was seeded onto PGA scaffolds soaked with poly l lysine. Then, scaffold chondrocyte constructs were transplanted into subcutaneous tissue of adult rabbits. Finally, the chondrogenesis was studied histologically at various periods. The results showed that chondrocytes were well distributed on the PGA scaffolds in the period of culture in vitro, and could secrete matrix around one week after seeding. 4 weeks after transplantation, the immature cartilage was regenerated in recipient animals. But some inflammatory cells surrounding the new cartilage and some PGA fibers were observed. 8 weeks after transplantation, mature cartilage with abundant matrix was obtained. PGA fibers were not found. This study proves that it is possible to regenerate new cartilage in animals possessing immune function by seeding allogenic chondrocytes onto PGA scaffold. Rejectionreaction is not strong.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effects of gene transfection with human growth/differentiation factor 5(hGDF5)on the differentiation and proliferation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs).Methods BMSCs were obtained from adult New zealand rabbits and purified by gradient centrifuge.Exogenous recombinant human GDF5 was transfected into BMSCs with liposome method.Then hGDF5 expression at mRNA and protein level was measured separately by reverse transcription-polymerase reaction and indirect immunofluorescence method.Activity of alkaline phosphates(ALP),expression of TypeⅡcollagen(ColⅡ),proteoglycan and growth of the cells were all measured by biological methods to evaluate the effects of hGDF5 gene transfer on the differentiation and proliferation of rabbit BMSCs.Results After hGDF5 gene transfection,BMSCs expressed hGDF5 mRNA and protein,and compared with the control groups,expression of proteoglycan and ColⅡ increased significantly,but no significant difference appeared in ALP activity and cell proliferation.Conclusion Gene transfer with hGDF5 is an effective way to enhance the expression of GDF5 at mRNA and protein.The expression of heterogenetic hGDF5 gene can induce BMSCs' differentiation to chondrogenic cells.But the gene transfection has no obvious effects on the proliferation and ALP activity of BMSCs.
