【Abstract】ObjectiveTo explore the effects of p38 mitogenactivated protein kinase (MAPK) on apoptosis of small intestinal epithelial cells after transplantation in rats. MethodsSmall intestinal transplantation was performed in SD and Wistar rats. The recipients were divided into three groups: isograft group (Wistar→Wistar group), allograft group (SD→Wistar group) and allograft+cyclosporine A group (SD→Wistar+CsA group). The grafts were harvested on day 1, 3, 5 and 7 after operation. All graft samples were subjected to histological examination. The apoptosis of graft epithelial cells was detected by TUNEL method. p38 MAPK was measured by Westernblotting method and serum TNFα was determined by ELISA. ResultsMild, moderate and severe rejection reaction occurred in the SD→Wistar group, it was showed that the number of apoptotic cells increased with the severity of the rejection reaction by TUNEL. In SD→Wistar group, the numbers of apoptotic cells were significantly higher than those of the other two groups (P<0.01). The severity of rejection reaction in SD→Wistar+CsA group was less than that of SD→Wistar group and the number of apoptotic cells increased with the severity of the rejection reaction (P<0.01). The level of serum TNFα varied with the apoptotic degree of small intestinal epithelial cells in SD→Wistar group and SD→Wistar+CsA group (P<0.01). The expression of p38 MAPK increased with the number of the apoptotic cells in SD→Wistar group and SD→Wistar+CsA group (P<0.01), but there was no evident change in Wistar→Wistar group (Pgt;0.05). The expression of p38 MAPK and the level of serum TNFα were positively correlated with apoptosis in small intestinal rejection after transplantation (r=0.875, P<0.01; r=0.837, P<0.01). p38 MAPK and TNFα were also positively correlated (r=0.826,P<0.01). ConclusionApoptosis plays an important role in small intestinal rejection. p38 MAPK is involved in apoptosis and is an important regulator in signal pathway of cell apoptosis.
ObjectiveTo summarize the current status and the management and prophylaxis of complications in laparoscopic gastrectomy. MethodsThe literatures on laparoscopic gastrectomy in domestic and abroad were reviewed and analyzed combined with our experiences. ResultsThe complications of laparoscopic gastrectomy primary attributed to surgery itself and pneumoperitoneum. Limited field under laparoscopy, loss of threedimensional space and finger touch, new instrument and technology and working conditions increased the difficulty of operation and the possibility of surgical complications. Clear anatomical layer under laparoscopy, accurate dissection of lymph nodes, and digestive tract reconstruction were the basis to reduce the complications in laparoscopic gastrectomy. ConclusionCorrect surgical procedures may reduce the occurrence of complications in laparoscopic gastrectomy.
【Abstract】Objective To study the effects of nitric oxide (NO) on the growth and metastasis of tumor.Methods The literatures of recent years were reviewed.Results NO had double effects on the growth and metastasis of tumor. NO promoted the growth and metastasis by regulating the expression of tumor proliferation gene and inducing tumor angiogenesis. On the other hand, NO had antitumor effects by interfering with the metabolism of tumor cells, inducing the damage of DNA, forming high toxic free radical, inducing apoptosis of tumor cells and mediating the antitumor action of endothelial cells and macrophages.Conclusion Selective blockage or induction of synthesis of NO may be a new way for tumor therapy.
Pelvic exenteration has become an important procedure for radical treatment of locally advanced/recurrent rectal cancer, and in recent years, with the advancement of surgical techniques and the improvement of perioperative management ability, the long-term prognosis of patients has been significantly improved. However, the high incidence of perioperative complications seriously impacts the quality of life of patients and the course of postoperative recovery, which remains a major problem for surgeons. Precise surgical levels and appropriate intraoperative position help to fully expose the surgical field, accurately identify major vessels, and reduce the risk of intraoperative bleeding. Biological mesh, myocutaneous flap and omentoplasty are common pelvic floor reconstruction methods, and combined repair of pelvic defects by two of them may further reduce the incidence of empty pelvic syndrome. Iliac revascularization could effectively prevent postoperative thrombosis and ventricular septal syndrome. The application of minimally invasive techniques and the implementation of pre-rehabilitation measures might help to reduce postoperative complications. This article reviews the prevention strategies of complications after pelvic exenteration in order to provide some reference for clinical practice and surgical promotion.
Objective To investigate the effect of adenovirus vector mediated transfer of human herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSVtk) gene inhibits intimal hyperplasia of vein grafts. Methods Auto vein graft models of Wistar rats were established. Adenovirus vector dwelled in cervical veins which were transplanted into inferior renal abdominal aorta. The combination of HSVtk (4×109 plaque forming units) and ganciclovir (GCV) was applied to test the inhibition effect. GCV was infused 〔60 mg/(kg·d), IP, Bid〕 from day 3 to day 21 after transplantation. Vein samples were harvested and the existence of HSVtk DNA was measured by PCR and the mRNA of it was studied by in situ hybridization. Van gieson (VG) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) stains were carried out in paraffin sections to study the thickness of neointima and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) proliferation with a computer-assisted analysis system. The apoptosis of SMCs also was detected by TUNEL. Results The existence of HSVtk gene in veins and its transcription were demonstrated. Morphometric analysis demonstrated a reduced intima thickness in the group receiving combination therapy (HSVtk/GCV) compared with HSVtk alone 〔(17.2±3.2) μm versus (31.1±2.5) μm, P<0.05〕. GCV per se had no effect on intimal hyperplasia after vein transplantation. The apoptosis of SMCs increased significantly and expression of PCNA decreased in HSVtk/GCV gene therapy group versus blank control group 〔(9.1±2.3)% vs (28.7±3.6)%, P<0.05; (38.7±5.6)%vs (18.5±2.6)%, P<0.05〕. Conclusion GCV conditions reduction of intimal hyperplasia after intraluminal delivery of HSVtk in transplanting vena veins involving SMCs apoptosis.

ObjectiveTo summarize the relationship between shoulder instability and superior labrum anterior posterior (SLAP) lesion. MethodsThe characteristics of shoulder instability and SLAP lesion were analyzed, and the relationship between them in pathogenesis, clinical symptoms, and biomechanics was discussed by referring to relevant domestic and foreign literature. ResultsShoulder instability and SLAP lesion can occur both spontaneously and respectively. SLAP lesion destroys the superior labrum integrity and the long head of biceps tendon (LHBT) insertion, causing excessive humeral head displacement against glenoid, and leading to shoulder instability. While chronic repetitive or acute high-energy traumatic shoulder instability can in turn aggravate SLAP lesion, resulting in expansion and increased degree of the original lesion. Conclusion SLAP lesion destroys mechanisms of shoulder stability, while shoulder instability causes tears of the upper labrum and the LHBT, showing a connection between shoulder instability and SLAP lesion. However, the existing evidence can only demonstrate that shoulder instability and SLAP lesion induce and promote the development of each other, instead of a necessary and sufficient condition. Therefore, the specific causal relationship between the two remains unknown and needs to be further studied.
Objective To analyze the methods of treating diabetic feet and to evaluate the optimal method. Methods The clinical data of 115 patients (137 legs) with diabetic feet were retrospectively analyzed. Results Seventy-one affected legs were treated with balloon dilation or stenting (11 with additional debridement of local ulcer), 12 legs were treated by femoral-popliteal arterial bypass (5 with additional debridement of local ulcer), and 31 legs were treated by debridement of local ulcer or amputation merely, and another 23 legs were treated by medical therapy. All diabetic feet treated by surgical treatment were improved obviously without death and severe complications, while 2 cases with medicine therapy died. Conclusion Because of the complexion of the diabetic foot, it should be treated individually, and the key point is to deal with the vascular lesions.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of aspirin and rivaroxaban in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods Eight databases were searched, including Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of Science, PubMed, SinoMed, Wanfang, Chongqing VIP, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The search period was from the establishment of databases to June 2023. All randomized controlled trials of aspirin and rivaroxaban for the prevention of VTE after TKA were collected, and meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 7 articles were included, with a publication period from 2014 to 2022, including a total of 714 patients, including 356 in the aspirin group and 358 in the rivaroxaban group. The meta-analysis results showed that the incidence of deep venous thrombosis in the lower limbs of the aspirin group was higher than that of the rivasarb group [relative risk (RR)=1.53, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.09, 2.16), P=0.01], and the incidence of bleeding complications was lower than that of the rivaroxaban group [RR=0.66, 95%CI (0.52, 0.82), P=0.0003]. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of wound complications between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The efficacy of rivaroxaban in preventing VTE after TKA is better than that of aspirin, but there is an increased risk of bleeding complications.
