  • COMPARISON BETWEEN KINDS OF MYOFASCIAL FLAP ENCAPSULATING ADIPOSE-DERIVED STROMAL CELLS CARRIER COMPLEX IN TERMS OF ADIPOGENIC EFFICACY IN VIVO

    Objective To compare two kinds of myofascial flap encapsulating adi pose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) in adi pogenic efficacy in vivo, and to provide experimental basis for the efficient transplantation of free adi pose tissue. Methods ADSCs were isolated from the subcutaneous adipose tissue in the neck of 10 New Zealand rabbits (aged 3-4 months old, male and female, weighing 2.0-2.5 kg), and primary culture and subculture of ADSCs were conducted. When the cells at passage 3 covered 70%-80% of the bottom of the culture flask, BrdU (10 μg/mL) was appl ied to label the cells for 48 hours before performing immunofluorescence staining. Oil red O staining observation was conducted to thosecells 2 weeks after being induced towards adi pocyte, al izarin red staining observation was performed 3 weeks after being induced towards osteoblast, and alcian blue staining was conducted 2 weeks after being induced towards chondrocyte. Besides, after being induced towards adipocyte for 2 weeks, 1 × 107 ADSCs/piece at passage 3 labeled by BrdU was seeded into Col I (10 mm × 10 mm × 5 mm/piece) to prepare cell carrier complex. The experiment was divided into two groups: group A in which vascular pedicled dextral latissimus dorsi fascial flap was adopted to encapsulate the complex; group B in which dextral gluteus maximus fascial flap with no specific vessel pedicle was appl ied to encapsulate the complex. Rabbits in each group went through autogenous ADSCs transplant and self control. The implants were dislodged 8 weeks after operation, HE staining and immunohistochemistry staining were performed to testify cambium, the wet weight and micro vessel count of the cambium in each group were tested, immunofluorescence staining was performed to determine the origin of cambium and microvascular endothel ium. Results The nucleus of ADSCs positive for BrdU label ing showed green fluorescence under fluorescence microscope, with the positive label ing ratio of ADSCs above 90%. For ADSCs at passage 3, the formation of red l ipid droplets within cells was observed 2 weeks after being induced towards adipocyte, red calcium nodules were evident 3 weeks after being induced towards osteoblast, and highly congregated cell mass positive for alcian blue staining appeared 2 weeks after being induced towards chondrocyte. Eight weeks after operation, neogenetic blood vessel grew into scaffolds and no obvious fibreencapsulation was observed in group A, while few blood vessel grew into scaffolds in group B. The wet weight of cambium in group A and B was (0.149 5 ± 0.017 3) g and (0.095 3 ± 0.012 7) g, respectively, indicating there was a significant difference between two groups (P lt; 0.01). HE staining showed the formation of neogenetic adipose tissue and the growth of micrangium in the implant, and the degradation and absorption of scaffold. The micro vessel count of group A and B was 31.2 ± 4.5 and 19.3 ± 2.6, respectively, indicating there was a significant difference between two groups (P lt; 0.01). Eight weeks after operation, the immunofluorescence staining of cambium showed that the cell nucleus of regenerated adi pocytes and partial capillary endothel ium in groups A and B presented green fluorescence. Conclusion ADSCs encapsulated by vascular pedicled latissimus dorsi fascial flap and collagen protein scaffold complex has a higher adi pogenic efficacy in vivo than the gluteus maximus fascial flap with no specific vessel pedicle.

    Objective To assess efficacy of a mouthwash containing 0.1% cetylpiridinium on gingivitis and plaque and its safety. Methods Multi-center randomized double-blind trial with positive control and split-mouth comparison was designed. Scaling on teeth of left side were conducted at do then on those of right side at D8. The cases rinsed five times a day in same way with assigned agents. Efficacy was measured using before-after differences of clinical and microbial variables. Re-examinations were scheduled at D4 and D8. Brushing was refrained between D0 and D4, resumed between D4 and D8. Results There were 144 patients with gingivitis included, 4 lost follow up. Data of 69 cases in test group and 71 in control group could be analyzed. Baseline data analysis showed that distributions of sex, age and values of clinical and microbial variables in both groups were well comparable. At D4 plaque accumulations of the scaled side in both groups were in same level, and Gingival index (GI), sulcus bleeding index (SBI) and VAS for halitosis were significantly reduced. At D8 the measurements of plaque index (PI), GI, SBI and VAS of halitosis decreased significantly more than those of D4. More than half of the suspected pathogenic strains were eliminated and log value of its CFU/ml decreased significantly but at same level in both groups. The balance of intra-oral bacterial flora was not disturbed. Seventeen cases in test group (24.6%) had minor and transient adverse reactions related to the mouthwash. Antimicrobial tests in vitro confirmed that the test agent could kill or inhibit growth of the pathogenic bacteria involving with oropharyngeal infection, gingivitis, periodontal diseases and caries. Conclusion The mouthwash containing cetylpiridinium could inhibit plaque, reduce severity of gingivitis and halitosis, with acceptable minor adverse reactions, similar to those of the marketed cetylpiridinum solution.

  • Effect of Fast Track on Clinical Efficacy of Different Operation Projects for Patients with Rectal Cancer

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of fasttrack (FT) and traditional care (TC) on patients with rectal cancer underwent different surgical strategies in perioperative period. MethodsThe clinical data of 285 patients with rectal cancer from January 2009 to January 2010 in this hospital were retrospectively analyzed. These patients underwent high anterior resection (HAR) or lower/super lower anterior resection (LAR) under FT and TC were divided into four groups: FT+HAR (n=39), FT+LAR (n=17), TC+HAR (n=151), and TC+LAR (n=78), and intraoperative conditions and postoperative rehabilitation were analyzed. ResultsThe baselines characteristics of four groups were basically identical (Pgt;0.05). ①The operative time and blood loss of patients in four groups were not statistically significant (Pgt;0.05). ②Anastomotic leakage occurred in three cases, wound infection in 13 cases, and intestinal obstruction in four cases after operation, and the difference was not significant in four groups (Pgt;0.05). ③The time of first defecation and first flatus of four groups were not statistically significant (Pgt;0.05), but there were significant differences in the time with drainage tube, nasogastric tube, and catheter tube, the time of first intake and first ambulation, and length of stay among four groups (Plt;0.05). Compared with TC+HAR and TC+LAR group, the time with drainage tube, nasogastric tube, and catheter tube, and the time of first intake and first ambulation of patients were shorter in FT+HAR and FT+LAR group, and the length of stay of patients in FT+LAR group was shorter than that in TC+HAR group and TC+LAR group (Plt;0.05). ConclusionsFT can promote postoperative rehabilitation of rectal cancer patients underwent different surgical strategies, but which does not demonstrate the superiority of reducing postoperative complications.
