ObjectiveTo introduce the role of three dementional computed tomograph (3D-CT) for patients underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedure in perioperative evaluation. MethodsFrom April 2014 to June 2015, we retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 28 patients with severe aortic stenosis underwent successful TAVI procedure using new second-generation device, who were enrolled in this study including 12 males and 16 females at mean age of 72.8±4.5 years. We used 3D-CT to get the perioperative relative evaluation, including valve morphology and calcification degree, annular diameter, aoronary ostium height, ascending aorta, aortic sinus diameter, left ventricular-aortic angle, optimal intraoperative angiogram projection angle. Based on the evaluation by 3D-CT image, the prosthesis size, balloon size, best intraoperative imaging projection angle and approach of apex were then chosen. ResultsAll patients with severe aortic stenosis underwent successful TAVI procedure with mean logistic Euro-SCORE I:26.2%±7.9%. CT image revealed that mean aortic annular diameter was 24.6±1.8 mm with mean valve prosthesis size 25.8±1.1 mm and pre-dilation balloon size 23.1±1.2 mm and 76.8% patients were of tricuspid aortic valve with severe calcification and 25% patients were of asymmetric calcification. Optimal intraoperative angiogram image was achieved in 92.9% patients with the help of preoperative CT image. There was a statistic difference in mean transvalvular gradient after valve implantation (54.1±15.3 mm Hg vs. 13.1±8.5 mm Hg, P<0.05). And there was no mortality or severe complication postoperatively. Conclusion3D-CT image palys an important role during perioperative evaluation of TAVI procedure and it can be helpful for Chinese doctors to operate TAVI successfully.
Objective To systematically review the effectiveness and safety of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) versus percutaneous coronary stent implantation (PCI) in the treatment of patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease (ULMCA). Methods Databases including The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2012), PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP were electronically searched from inception to September 2012 for randomized controlled trials on the effectiveness and safety of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) versus percutaneous coronary stent implantation (PCI) for ULMCA; References of the included studies were also retrieved. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed the methodological quality of the included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.0. Results Four studies were included involving 1 611 cases, of which, 802 cases are in the CABG group, while 809 cases were in the PCI group. The results of meta-analysis showed that: comparing with PCI, CABG significantly reduced the postoperative repeat revascularization rate (OR=0.45, 95%CI 0.31 to 0.66, Plt;0.000 1), but there was no significant difference between the two groups in reducing the myocardial infarction incidence (OR=1.28, 95%CI 0.47 to 3.48, P=0.63), mortality rate (OR=1.36, 95%CI 0.80 to 2.34, P=0.26), and the incidence of major adverse cardio-cerebral vascular events (OR=0.92, 95%CI 0.66 to 1.28, P=0.61). Conclusion This study indicates that CABG is superior to PCI in reducing postoperative rate of target vessel revascularization. But CABG and PCI are alike in reducing myocardial infarction incidence, mortality rate, and the incidence of major adverse cardio-cerebral vascular events. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the above conclusion needs to be verified by more high quality RCTs.
Objective To systematically review the effectiveness and safety of autologous implantation of stem cells for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Methods Randomized controlled trials on relevant studies were retrieved in databases including CBM (1978-2011.6), CNKI (1979-2011.6), MEDLINE (1950-2011.6), PubMed (1950-2011.6), EMbase (1970-2011.6) and The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2011). References of the included studies were also retrieved. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assess the methodological quality of the included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.0 software.Results Four RCTs involving 68 patients (136 limbs) were included, most of which were low in methodological quality. The results of meta-analysis indicated that, autologous stem cell therapy improved or even eliminated DPN symptoms including pain, numbness, and cold sensation in the limbs, intermittent limping, and rest pain. Compared with the routine therapy, autologous stem cell therapy improved tibial sensory nerve conduction velocity (MD=5.75, 95%CI 3.86 to 7.64, Plt;0.000 01), tibial motor nerve conduction velocity (MD=4.04, 95%CI 0.90 to 7.18, P=0.001), sural sensory nerve conduction velocity (MD=7.47, 95%CI 4.00 to 10.94, Plt;0.000 1), and sural motor nerve conduction velocity (MD=3.38, 95%CI 0.07 to 7.58, P=0.05), with no adverse reaction reported. Conclusion Current evidence shows that, autologous stem cell therapy is effective in treating DPN. Due to the lack of high quality studies, more high quality RCTs are needed to verify the above conclusion.

Objective To study whether carbon dioxide used to establish pneumoperitoneum has an influence on port-site and intraperitoneal implantation and metastasis of tumor cells. Methods R15 hepatic cancer cells were injected into 30 Wistar rats’ peritoneal cavities 1 hour before operation, then the 30 Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: gasless group, helium group and carbon dioxide group. The suspension was exposed to the gas environment for 2 hours, all animals were killed after 28 days and the port-site and intraperitoneal implantation and metastasis of tumor cells were examined. Results On port-site, intestinal serous coat, mesentery, greater omentum and diaphragm, the weights of tumor cells, in carbon dioxide group were (326.7±230.3) mg， （626.2±215.9） mg，（476.2±204.8） mg，（2 536.5±906.7） mg and （384.5±149.9） mg respectively； in helium group were (235.6±107.3) mg， （414.2±148.4） mg, （261.8±92.6） mg, （1 633.4±247.3） mg and（220.0±57.9） mg； in gasless group were (145.0±42.4) mg， （221.5±108.2） mg， （212.5±109.6） mg, （797.5±335.9） mg and 113.0 mg.The weights of carbon dioxide group showed a significant increase, compared with helium group and gasless group (P＜0.05). The weights of helium group were greater than gasless group，but there was no significance in statistics (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion The insufflation of carbon dioxide promotes intraperitoneal tumor implantation and growth compared with helium and gaslessness in a rat model.
Objective To investigate the effect of CO2 pneumoperitoneum on the tumor cell port site implantation in laparoscopic surgery. Methods Male SpraqueDawley rats were intraperitoneally injected with gastric cancer cells (cell line SGC-7901). Continuous CO2 pneumo of 15 mm Hg or 30 mm Hg were established for 5 mins, 60 mins, 120 mins and 180 mins with the injection of different concentrations of tumor cells (104/ml, 106/ml respectively). Several samples of peritoneal washing served as positive control. All collecting dishes were incubated at 37℃ with 5% CO2 concentration for one week and then examined for the presence of tumor cell under microscope. Results After one week of incubation, some of the dishes with continuous flow of CO2 gas (5 L/min) at pneumo 30 mm Hg for 60 mins or longer demonstrated tumor growth, and all peritoneal washing samples showed tumor growth, while other dishes showed negative. Conclusion The research suggests that gastric cancer cells can cause port site implantation and the concentration of tumor cells, pneumoperitoneum pressure and duration may affect the occurrence of port site implantation. It may help to find a suitable way to prevent the port site implantation in operations.
ObjectiveTo establish an animal model of anaplastic thyroid cancer with high metastatic activity as in human body. MethodsHuman anaplastic thyroid cancer cell line TAK was injected into one of the lateral lobes of the thyroid gland, as well as in the subcuitis in a series of nude mice. Mice were sacrificed when found moribund, and autopsy and histology were performed subsequently.ResultsThe implantation of human anaplastic thyroid cancer cells in an ectopic enviroment did not permit expression of metastasis potential. In contrast, intrathyroid implantation did. Lymph node (5/10), lung (3/10) and one metastasis (1/10) were noted upon histological examination. ConclusionAn animal model with high metastatic activity is established when human anaplastic thyroid cancer cell line TAK is implanted orthotopically into nude mice.
On the basis of established JF305 cell line from human pancreatic cancer at this university, cell clone technique, cell electrophoresis, flower cytometer, and cancer orthotopically implanted nude mice technique were used to establish the sublines with different metastatic potential from human pancreatic cancer line-JF305 and the nude mice model implanted orthotopically with human pancreatic cancer monoclonal sublines with different metastatic potential. The results showed that the monoclonal cell sublines with different metastatic potential from human pancreatic caner-JF305 and the nude mice model implanted orthotopically with the sublines, would provided a useful method to study the metastatic mechanism of human pancreatic cancer.
Abstract： Objective To investigate the early and mid-term outcomes of morphologic tricuspid valve replacement by means of intravalvular implantation in corrected transposition of great arteries（cTGA）. Methods From January 2009 to January 2012，11 patients with cTGA were surgically treated in Fu Wai Hospital. There were 9 male patients and 2 female patients with their mean of age of（37.8±11.7）years and mean body weight of（73.0±11.3）kg. All the patients underwent morphologic tricuspid valve replacement with preservation of the entire valvular and subvalvular apparatus. Simultaneous surgical procedures included repair of ventricular septal defect in 2 patients，repair of atrial septal defect in 4 patients，pulmonary valvuloplasty in 1 patient，reconstruction of functional right ventricular outflow tract in 4 patients and repair of coronary-pulmonary artery fistula in 1 patient. Postoperative New York Heart Association （NYHA） classification, cardiothoracic ratio, morphological right ventricle ejection fraction, end-diastolic dimension of morphological right ventricle and left atrium were evaluated during follow-up. Results All the 11 patients were successfully surgically treated and followed up for an average duration of（13.0±10.6）months. There was no statistical difference between postoperative and preoperative average cardiothoracic ratio （0.54±0.06 vs. 0.57±0.09，t=1.581，P＞0.05），morphologic right ventricle ejection fraction （52.8%±9.0% vs. 54.9%±9.5%, t =0.712，P＞0.05），and end-diastolic dimension of . morphological right ventricle （54.3±7.5 mm vs. 56.9±9.2 mm，t =0.988，P＞0.05）. There was statistical difference between postoperative and preoperative average end-diastolic dimension of left atrium（42.1±8.9 mm vs. 53.4±11.1 mm，t =3.286，P＜0.05）and NYHA classification（Z = -2.640，P＜0.05）. Conclusion Intravalvular implantation of morphologic tricuspid prosthesis can protect the physiological structure of morphologic right ventricular and prevent furtherdamage to its function caused by morphologic tricuspid valve insufficiency. Postoperative dimension of morphologic left atrium and cardiac function are significantly improved. The early and mid-term outcomes are satisfactory．
