Objective To compare the efficacy of incision healing by abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer and the traditional abdominal wall closure measure. Methods Four hundreds patients underwent operation of abdominal median incision and abdominal paramedian incision from Sep. 2010 to Sep. 2012 in our department were randomly assigned to observation group (n=199) and control group (n=201). The patients in obser- vation group underwent abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer, and those of control group were subjected to abdominal wall closure by traditional layer suture technique. Comparison of efficacy of incision healing in the 2 groups was performed. Results The incidences of fat liquefication 〔1 (0.5%) vs.18 (9.0%)〕, incision swelling 〔3 (1.5%) vs.16 (8.0%)〕, incision induration 〔1 (0.5%) vs.15 (7.5%)〕, and dehiscence of wound 〔0 (0) vs.9 (4.5%)〕 in observation group were significantly lower than those of control group (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in incidence of subcutaneous hematoma 〔2 (1.0%) vs.0 (0), P>0.05〕. The rate of primary healing in obser-vation group was significantly higher than those of control group 〔199 (100%) vs.186 (92.5%), P<0.01〕. Duration of abdominal closure 〔(13.0±1.6) min vs.(18.0±2.2) min〕 and postoperative hospital stay 〔(7.7±1.3) days vs.(9.6±1.9) days〕 were all shorter than those of control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer is obviously more effective to the traditional layer suture technique, which is a suture way worthy to spread.
Objective To develop an in vitro three-dimensional angiogenesis system and analyze the expression and function of CD105 in angiogenesis. Methods After primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were purified and cultured, the microcarriers were coated with HUVEC and then embedded and cultured into fibrin gel. The angiogenesis process of HUVEC on the microcarriers was formed. The expression of CD105 during this process was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) was used to inhibit the expression of CD105 and the changes of the angiogenesis process were analyzed quantitatively. Results HUVEC on the microcarriers which were embedded into the fibrin gel, occurred the angiogenesis process of sprouts, branches and capillary networks with lumina. During this process, CD105 was over expressed in the periods of forming sprouts and branches, and depressed in the relatively steady periods including the periods before forming sprouts and after forming capillary networks. While the expression of CD105 was inhibited by ASODN, the angiogenesis process was significantly inhibited. Conclusions The expression of CD105 is varied within the angiogenesis process, over expressing during the sprouts and branches forming periods. Inhibiting the expression of CD105 could efficiently inhibit angiogenesis.
