ABSTRACT
Xenotransplantation is an efficient pathway to solve the problem of transplant organ source deficiency in clinical settings. With the increasing progress of gene editing technique and immune suppression regimen, important development has been achieved on researches regarding pig to non-human primate kidney xenotransplantation, which provides a good condition for the introduction of the technique in the clinical application. In view of the substantial difference between human and non-human primate, and to meet the needs of current ethic requirements, it is necessary to perform subclinical studies for pig to human kidney xenotransplantation. In recent years, such subclinical studies with regard to the genetically modified pig to brain death recipient kidney xenotransplantation had been performed, indicating that kidney xenotransplantation gradually began to transit to the clinical development stage. However, donor/recipient selection and immune suppression regimen has not reached a consensus yet, and has to be clarified in subclinical studies. In this article, the current status and confronted problems of donor/recipient selection, immune suppression regimen and post transplantation management in the subclinical studies of kidney xenotransplantation were reviewed, aiming to promote the clinical transformation of kidney xenotransplantation to the clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Kidney transplantation is the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease in clinical practice. Compared with patients receiving dialysis, kidney transplant recipients may achieve higher survival rate and quality of life, and better clinical outcomes. However, kidney transplant recipients constantly develop physiological and psychological disorders, such as frailty, decreased cardiopulmonary function and cognitive dysfunction, etc. In recent years, with the application of the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), rehabilitation therapy plays a pivotal role in optimizing preoperative baseline function, mitigating perioperative physiological and psychological stress and reducing the incidence of postoperative complications. In this article, the application of ERAS in kidney transplantation was reviewed, and research progress on pre-rehabilitation before kidney transplantation and acute-stage rehabilitation after kidney transplantation was summarized, aiming to provide reference for perioperative rehabilitation of kidney transplantation, enhance the quality of life of kidney transplant recipients and accelerate the development of kidney transplantation techniques.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the risk factors affecting the incidence of acute kidney injury(AKI)after liver transplantation(LT).Methods:From November 2019 to November 2022, clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 105 recipients of classic orthotopic LT.There are 89 males and 16 females with an age range of(50.52±10.35)years.They are assigned into two groups of AKI(66 cases)and non-AKI(39 cases)according to the AKI diagnostic and staging criteria of Global Kidney Disease Prognosis Organization in 2012.General profiles and clinical data(e.g.previous medical history, MELD score, total bilirubin, albumin, serum creatinine level, coagulation function, anhepatic phase and time to surgery)of two groups of recipients are compared.The factors with statistically significant differences are included into multivariate Logistic regression analysis for obtaining independent risk factors for early AKI post-LT.Results:Among them, 66 patients developed AKI within 7 days post-operation with an incidence rate of 62.86%(66/105).The clinical stages of AKI are Ⅰ(46 cases, 69.70%), Ⅱ(10 cases, 15.15%)and Ⅲ(10 cases, 15.15%).Statistically significant inter-group differences exists in age, abdominal surgery history, preoperative serum level of creatinine, operative duration, anhepatic phase and intraoperative plasma transfusion(all P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that abdominal surgery history( OR=5.803, 95% CI: 1.008~33.401, P=0.049), anhepatic phase( OR=1.054, 95% CI: 1.008~1.101, P=0.020)and preoperative serum level of creatinine( OR=0.968, 95% CI: 0.943~0.994, P=0.016)are independent risk factors for early AKI after classical orthotopic LT recipients. Conclusions:Abdominal surgery history, anhepatic phase, and preoperative serum level of creatinine are independent risk factors for early AKI in classic orthotopic LT recipients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical treatment of aspergillus infection in the central nervous system.Methods:Data was obtained from a recipient who were diagnosed with invasive aspergillosis in the central nervous system after liver transplantation.We retrospectively analyzed the clinical character of the recipient." Liver transplantation" , " Aspergillus" , " brain" and " aspergillus" were searched for literature published in English or Chinese in Wanfang data, CNKI and PubMed database for nearly 5 years until January 2022.Results:A 33 years old recipient was admitted to the hospital with fatigue, chest distress and shortness of breath after liver transplantation on postoperative day(POD)48.On the computed tomography(CT)scan of the chest, multiple exudative lesions was observed in both lungs.Multiple sputum cultures were grown as Candida albicans.The symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath were significantly improved by treating with caspofungin compared before.On POD 79, the recipient developed stubborn nausea and vomiting.Cranial enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)showed central nervous system(CNS)infection.Numerous traditional pathogenic microorganisms tests of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)were all negative.With the help of metagenomics next generation sequencing(mNGS), aspergillus fumigatus was detected in CSF.The recipient received therapy with voriconazole and rehabilitation.Therapy with voriconazole was continuous for 8 months.Unfortunately, the recipient developed cholestasis due to repeated biliary infection and eventually died of liver failure 13 months later.Conclusions:Although the mortality rate of aspergillus infection in the central nervous system is very high after liver transplantation, timely and effective treatment is still expected to improve its prognosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the best parameter of predicting the operation time and clearance of flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy through comparing correlations between three stone burden parameters (diameter, area, volume) and the operation time or clearance retrospectively.Methods:Clinical data and CT images of 70 patients who performed flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy because of single kidney stone in our center from January 2018 to December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 46 males and 24 females; their age was (47±12) years old. Stones were located on the left side in 28 cases and right side in 42 cases; 32 cases in the renal pelvis , 29 cases in the lower calyx, 6 cases in the middle calyx and 3 cases in the upper calyx. The free software ITK-SNAP 3.6.0 to segment kidney stones in 3D models with the CT image was used. The stone volume was calculated automatically after the segment. The largest section of the stone on the CT coronal plane was selected to measure the maximum length (D) and width (d) of the stone, the maximum diameter of the stone was D, and the stone area was calculated using the formula 0.25πDd. The patients were divided by the operation clearance into total clearance group and partial clearance group. The correlations between three stone burden parameters (volume, diameter, area) and operation time or clearance of the flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy were compared. Simple linear regression model was also applied to compare three measurement methods. Then other factors which may affect the operation time was evaluated with the stepwise linear regression model, such as stone component and location.Results:The median operation time was 63(50, 84)min. Of 70 cases, 47 cases were in the stone-free group, with stone volume 633(248, 1 087)mm 3, maximum diameter 15(10, 19)mm, and area 82(49, 186)mm 2. 23 cases were in the non stone-free group, with volume 696(408, 1 418)mm 3, maximum diameter 15(12, 20)mm, area 105(73, 201)mm 2. There was no difference between the two groups in volume, maximum diameter and area of stones (all P>0.05). The stone-free rate of the diameter >2 cm group was 55% (6/11), ≤2 cm group was 70% (41/59). There was no significant difference between the two groups. Correlation between stone volume and operation time is the best. The correlation coefficient of stone volume is 0.58, of stone diameter is 0.33, of stone area is 0.34. Coefficients of determination of the stone volume linear regression is the best, too. R square of stone volume is 0.36, of stone diameter is 0.17, of stone area is 0.22. Forward stepwise regression model shows stone volume is the most important parameter which correlate with operation time. None of stone volume, diameter or area has significant correlation with the clearance of stone. Conclusion:Stone volume is the best predictive parameter of the stone burden because it has the best correlation with the operation time of the flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy of the single kidney stone.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of salinomycin on cancer stem cell formation of prostate cancer cell line DU145 and its possible mechanisms,providing theoretical basis for the clinical application of salino-mycin. Methods (1)DU145 cells were treated with salinomycin. The percentage of ALDH+cells,which was used as the marker of cancer stem cells,was detected by flow cytometry.(2)After treated with salmonin,DU145 cells were subjected to Western-Blot analysis for the expression of mTORsignal pathway-related proteins such as p-70s6k, p-p70s6,p-s6 and so on. 3)DU145 cells were treated with salinomycin combined with mTOR signal pathway inhibi-tor rapamycin,and the ALDH+cancer stem cells were detected using flow cytometer. Results (1)Salmonomycin significantly inhibited ALDH-positive cancer stem cells in DU145cell line(inhibition rate in 77.8%),which was twice as high as that of traditional anticancer drug paclitaxel(which has a inhibition rate of 38.64%). This results suggesting that salinomycin would have the effect of inhibiting cancer stem cells. (2)The expression ofm-TOR p-70s6k,p-p70s6 and p-s6 in mTOR signaling pathway was inhibited by salinomycin in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner,suggesting that salinomycin would inhibite mTOR signaling pathway.(3)Salinomycin combined with rapamycin can decrease the proportion of ALDH-positive DU145 cancer stem cells(inhibition rate in 77.95%), suggesting that salinomycin may inhibit ALDH-positive DU145 stem cells through the mTOR signaling pathway. Conclusion Salinomycin may play an important role in inhibiting cancer stem cells by inhibiting mTOR pathway signaling.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:The adhesion between muscle tendon and surrounding tissue after tendon restoration is one hot topic in clinic. OBJECTIVE:To construct a deep flexor tendon transection model in the third toe of female Leghorn chicken and to explore the effect of peritenon transplantation on the prevention of tendon adhesions. METHODS:After the transection models were successful y established, the third toe of left claw was taken as experimental group A. The transected tendon was sutured, the tendon anastomosis end was wrapped with the peritenon of the deep flexor tendon from the ipsilateral fourth toe (experimental group B). The third toe of right claw served as control group A, the transfected tendon was sutured and restored with the peritenon. The fourth toe of right claw was taken as control group B. Gross observation and histological observation of the tendon were performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 28 days postoperatively, gross observation and histological observation of Leghorn chicken were performed and compared using the Kruskal-Wal isH and Nemenyi test, respectively. The results showed that, the therapeutic effect was better in experimental group A than in control group A (P0.05). The flexor function was evaluated and compared with the least significant difference t-test. The results showed that the postoperative effect was better in experimental group A than in control group A (P0.05). Peritenon transplantation can effectively prevent tendon adhesions and has little impact on normal tendon sliding.

METHODS: A computer-based search of CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed databases for articles related to prevention of tendon adhesions published from January 1971 to May 2014 using the keywords of “tendon injury; tendon adhesions; progress” in Chinese and English, respectively. Repetitive content and irrelevant articles were excluded, and finaly 40 articles were included in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of tendons and causes of tendon adhesions, summarize the methods for prevention of tendon adhesions and the therapeutic effects, and thereby analyze the pros and cons of various methods and materials for prevention of tendon adhesions. Prevention of tendon adhesions after tendon repair involves various aspects: thorough debridement, better surgical approach, microsurgical repair of tendon tissues, applications of drugs and barrier materials, physical therapy as wel as appropriate functional exercise after tendon repair. The integrated use of these means can be done to prevent the occurrence of postoperative tendon adhesions.
ABSTRACT
In order to investigate the effects of pyrolysis conditions on bio-oil production from biomass in molten salt, experiments of biomass pyrolysis were carried out in a self-designed reactor in which the molten salt ZnCl2-KCl (with mole ratio 7/6) was selected as heat carrier, catalyst and dispersion agent. The effects of metal salt added into ZnCl2-KCl and biomass material on biomass pyrolysis were discussed, and the main compositions of bio-oil were determined by GC-MS. Metal salt added into molten salt could affect pyrolysis production yields remarkably. Lanthanon salt could enhance bio-oil yield and decrease water content in bio-oil, when mole fraction of 5.0% LaCl3 was added, bio-oil yield could reach up to 32.0%, and water content of bio-oil could reduce to 61.5%. The bio-oil and char yields were higher when rice straw was pyrolysed, while gas yield was higher when rice husk was used. Metal salts showed great selectivity on compositions of bio-oil. LiCl and FeCl2 promoted biomass to pyrolyse into smaller molecular weight compounds. CrCl3, CaCl2 and LaCl3 could restrain second pyrolysis of bio-oil. The research provided a scientific reference for production of bio-oil from biomass pyrolysis in molten salt.

ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze clinical outcomes of the spouse donor kidney transplantation for evaluating the security.Methods Sixty-three cases of living-renal transplantation were divided into two groups, spouse donor group (12 cases) and the other related donor group (53 cases). Twelve cases of spouse-donor(SD)renal transplantation were summarized, that were compared with the nospouse transplantation cases of the other living-related renal transplantation in the same period, which were similar in basic conditions and in immunosuppressant scheme. The observational parameters included average hospitalization time, rate of acute renal necrosis, acute rejection incidence within 1 year, serum creatinine at 7 d, 30 d and 1 year after transplantation.Results The recipient age of the 2 groups was (39±3)years and (37±3)years(P=0.05), dialysis time was (4.7±3.2)months and (4.4±2.9)months(P=0.78), the average hospitalization time was (20.9±8.3)d and (23.0±7.8)d(P=0.41). There was no significant difference between the spouse donor group and the no spouse related donor group. The acute rejection incidence within 1 year was 33.3%(4/12) in spouse group and 3. 9%(2/51) in the other related group, there was significant difference between the 2 groups(P＜0.05). The rate of acute renal necrosis was 16.7%(2/12) in spouse group and 3.9%(2/15)in no spouse related group, there was no significant different between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).SCr was (206.47±47.22)μmol/L and (163. 75±25.91)μmol/L in spouse group at post-operation 7 d and 30 d, and was (142.79±89.42)μmol/L and (119. 99±15.03)μmol/L in no spouse group. There was significant difference between the groups(P=0.02, P=0.00). One year after operation, SCr was (133. 40±6. 11)μmol/L in spouse group and (121. 00±34.12)μmol/L in no spouse group,there was no significant difference between the 2 groups (P=0.25).Conclusions Preoperative comprehensive assessment of the spouse donors and recipients renal transplantation is the guarantee for the success.Short-term outcomes of spouse donor renal transplantation is ideal, but rate of acute rejection within 1 year is higher than that of the other living-relative donor kidney transplantation, which dose not influence the long-time survival of spouse recipients.
