Objective To prepare a self-made compound, hemostatic jelly with polylactic acid(PLA), which has the hemostatic and absorbable effect on injured cancellous bone. Methods Two bone defects of 5 mm in diameter and 4 mm in depth were subjected on 20 health rabbits by drilling through their either outside plate of the iliac, and were filled with hemostatic jelly(group A), bone wax(group B) and blank(group C) respectively. Hemostasis were observed and recorded after 1 and 10 minutes. Five specimens were harvested at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks postoperatively for histological observation. Results ① Hemostatic effect: Bleeding of injured spongy bone stopped within 10 minutes after the treatment of hemostatic jelly and bone wax, but bleeding of balnk did not stop. Hemostatic jelly and bone wax adhered to bone defects firmly within 10 minutes was after the treatment. ② Absorbable effect: Hemostatic jelly and bone defects have not changed visibly in the first 2 weeks. With histological observation 4 to 8 weeks after the operation, hemastatic jelly was absorbed gradually and replaced by osteogenous tissue. It was absorbed completely after 8 to 12 weeks. Bone wax was not absorbed after 12 weeks, no new bone tissue was observed at bone wax area. The blank was replaced by connective tissue and osteogenous tissue partially after 12 weeks. Conclusion The compound hemostatic jelly manifests both hemostatic and absorbable effects on injured cancellous bone and may substitute for bone wax in clinical application.
Objective To investigate the effect of homograft of marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) seeded onto poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA)/gelatin on repair of articular cartilage defects. Methods The MSCs derived from36 Qingzilan rabbits, aging 4 to 6 months and weighed 2.5-3.5 kg were cultured in vitroand seeded onto PLLA/gelatin. The MSCs/ PLLA/gelatin composite was cultured and transplanted into full thickness defects on intercondylar fossa. Thirty-six healthy Qingzilan rabbits were made models of cartilage defects in the intercondylar fossa. These rabbits were divided into 3 groups according to the repair materials with 12 in each group: group A, MSCs and PLLA/gelatin complex(MSCs/ PLLA/gelatin); group B, only PLLA/gelatin; and group C, nothing. At 4,8 and 12 weeks after operation, the gross, histological and immunohistochemical observations were made, and grading scales were evaluated. Results At 12 weeks after transplantation, defect was repaired and the structures of the cartilage surface and normal cartilage was in integrity. The defects in group A were repaired by the hylinelike tissue and defects in groups B and C were repaired by the fibrous tissues. Immunohistochemical staining showed that cells in the zones of repaired tissues were larger in size, arranged columnedly, riched in collagen Ⅱ matrix and integrated satisfactorily with native adjacent cartilages and subchondral bones in group A at 12 weeks postoperatively. In gross score, group A(2.75±0.89) was significantly better than group B (4.88±1.25) and group C (7.38±1.18) 12 weeks afteroperation, showing significant differences (P＜0.05); in histological score, group A (3.88±1.36) was better than group B (8.38±1.06) and group C (13.13±1.96), and group B was better than group C, showing significant differences (P＜0.05). Conclusion Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells seeded onto PLLA/gelatin is a promising way for the treatment of cartilage defects.
Objective To determine the ability of the polyactic acid glue (PLA-G) in preventing epidural adhesion after laminectomy. Methods Each of the 24 randomly selected rats was done laminectomyof L2 and L5. The PLA-G, which would change from liquid to solid when meets with serum, was used in the epidural site of L5 to become a half-solid membrane(the experimental group, EG). The PLA-G was not used in the same site of L2(the control group, CG) .The gross anatomical, histological, and microscopical evaluation were made 2，4，6，8，10 and 12 weeks after operation; electron microscope observation was also made on two rats 4 weeks after operation(both EG and CG). Results Obvious epidural space was observed between dura mater and scar tissue(ST), but no cells in the epidural space were observed inEG 2 weeks after operation. Corps of the red cells between dura mater and ST and proliferation of fibroblast cell(FB) were observed in CG 2 weeks after operation. Some remaining glue shiver in the epidural space with lightly increasing fibroblast and smooth dura mater were observed in EG 4 weeks after operation. However, fragile scar conglutinated with dura mater diffusely and more FB were observed in CG. From the 6th week to the 12th week, a potential interspace between scar and dura mater was observed and PLA glue was absorbed completely in EG. However, tougher scar, which was very difficult to dissect from dura mater and surrounding tissues, was observed. According to the fibroblast ultrastructure observation, bigger nucleus and more plentiful rough endoplasmic reticulum were observed in CG. Conclusion The PLA-G can effectively reduce the epidural scar and adhesion in animal experiment.
Objective To explore the prognostic value of early lactate clearance rate in patients with respiratory failure.Methods 117 patients with respiratory failure and elevated blood lactate, admitted into respiratory intensive care unit( RICU) between January 2010 and December 2011, were retrospectively analyzed. Arterial lactate and arterial blood gas were measured before and 12h, 24h, 48h, and 72h after treatment. Then12h lactate clearance rate was calculated. The acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ( APACHEⅡ) score was evaluated before and after 12h treatment. The mortality were compared between subgroups with different lactate normalization time( lt;24 h, 24 ～48 h, 48 ～72 h, and gt;72h, respectively) . The clinical data was compared between subgroups with different prognosis ( survival or non-survival ) and between subgroups with different lactate clearance rate( ≥10% as high lactate clearance rate, lt;10% as low lactate clearance rate) . Results The mortality of the patients with lactate normalization time in less 24 hours was significantly lower than that of the patients with lactate normalization time more than 72 hours ( 5. 3% vs. 89. 2% , P lt; 0. 001) . The 12 hour lactate clearance rate of the survival group was significantly higher than that of the non-survival group [ ( 43. 6 ±26. 8) % vs. ( 12. 3 ±39. 1) % , P lt;0. 01] . The mortality of the patients with high lactate clearance rate was significantly lower than that of the patients with lowlactate clearance rate( 25. 8% vs. 71. 4% , P lt;0. 01) . Conclusion Early lactate clearance rate can be used as a marker for prognosis of patients with respiratory failure.
Objective To investigate the feasibility of fetal liver cells for liver tissue engineering, the supporting function of poly L lactic acid (PLLA) scaffold for fetal liver cells and the effects of oncostatin M (OSM), nicotinamide (NA) and dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) on growth and hepatic differentiation. Methods After three dimensional PLLA scaffolds having a porous structure were prepared by using NH 4HCO 3 particle, fetal liver cells obtained from E14.5 C57BL/6CrSlc murine embryos were inoculated in the scaffolds. Cells were cultured in Williams’E medium with or without OSM, NA and DMSO for 30 days. Changes in cell number, liver-specific function, and cellular morphology were observed. Results When compared with in monolayer culture, cell number and albumin secretion increased obviously in three-dimensional PLLA. Alburmin secretion increased slightly in OSM group of monolayer culture, but increased obviously in OSM groupo of PLLA culture and in OSM/NA/DMSO group of both monlayer and PLLA cultures. Conclusion The three-dimensional PLLA scaffold is a good supporting material for the cultivation of tetal liver cells. OSM, NA and DMSO remarkaly stimulated maturation of hepatic parenchymal cells in vitro in terms of morphology and liver-specific function.

Methods The clinical data of 32 patients with lactic acidosis admitted to our hospital from May 2008 to December 2010 were studied retrospectively. Results All patients had type 2 diabetes mellitus. Among them, 27 (84.6%) were older than 60, 20 (62.5%) had ingested antidiabetic drugs of biguanides, 12 (37.5%) were complicated by pulmonary diseases, 9 (28.1%) by heart diseases, 15 (46.9%) by renal dysfunction, and 8 (25.0%) by liver dysfunction. Conclusions Diabetes mellitus, old age, ingesting of biguanides, cardiopulmonary diseases, renal and hepatic dysfunction all contribute to the occurrence of lactic acidosis. During clinical work, we should try to avoid the above-mentioned risk factors.
In order to find an ideal biological material to prevent peridural adhesion following laminectomy, 30 rabbits were used as animal model, in each of which 2 defects with a size of 1 cm x 0.5 cm were made following laminectomy of L3, L5 spine. One of the defects was covered extradurally with chitosan, gelatin foam or PLA membrane respectively, while the other defect was exposed as control. All of these animals were sacrificed on the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 10th week after operation, and the extradural fibrosis and adhesion of every animal were evaluated by gross observation and histological examinations. It was revealed that in the chitosan and PLA membrane groups, the extradural tissue was smooth without thickening and there was no fibrous proliferation or adhesion in the epidural cavity, and that in the chitosan group, the growth of fibroblast was restrained but the growth of the epithelial cells was promoted significantly, thus, wound healing was rapid. In the control group and gelatin foam group, obvious extradural fibrosis and adhesion were observed and the extradural space had almost disappeared. Therefore, it was concluded that the biodegradable PLA membrane and chitosan were both an ideal material in the prevention of postoperative epidural adhesion.
Objective To explore the predictive value of simplified acute physiological score Ⅱ (SAPS-Ⅱ) combined with lactate clearance rates (LCR) at different moments for mortality in sepsis patients. Methods A total of 188 patients with sepsis admitted in the hospital from April 2020 to February 2023 were selected, who were evaluated using the SAPS-Ⅱ scale. Spectrophotometry was used to detect blood lactate at baseline, after 6h, 12h, 24h, and 48h, then the LCR after 6h, 12h, 24h, and 48h were calculated. The patients were divided into a survival group (n=139) and a death group (n=37) based on 28 day outcome. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the risk factors of sepsis death, and the efficacy of SAPS-Ⅱ scores combined with LCR at different moments in predicting patient death was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results Twelve patients fell off, and 37 died in the remaining 176 patients, the mortality rate was 21.02%. The age, temperature, random blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, and SAPS- Ⅱ scores in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group (P<0.05), while platelet count and LCR at all moments were significantly lower than those in the survival group (P<0.05). The LCR of the death group continued to decrease with time. The trend of changes in the survival group were opposite, and the differences in the two groups between each two moments were statistically significant (P<0.05). The SAPS-Ⅱ scores and LCR at all moments were risk factors for patient death (P<0.05). The SAPS-Ⅱ score and LCR at all moments had predictive value for patient death, and the area under ROC curve of the combined prediction was 0.921 (95%CI 0.825 - 1.000), which was higher than the individual prediction and LCR at each moment combined with SAPS II score prediction (P<0.05). Conclusion The SAPS-Ⅱ scores and LCR at different moments are all related to death of sepsis patients, and the combined prediction of death by the above indicators is highly effective.
Objective To observe the degradation of the polyactic glycolate acid (PLGA) microparticles with releasing-slowly vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) synthesized by the method of emulsification-diffusion. Methods The method of emulsification-diffusion is to incorporate VEGF into microparticles composed of biodegradable PLGA. The controlled release of microparticles are acquired.

Methods Thirty-eight septic shock patients received early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) in the ICU of our hospital from February 2008 to February 2010. The patients were divided into survival group (n=21) and dead group (n=17). Indexes like central venous pressure (CVP), heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), fluid input, urine output, and blood lactate were evaluated. Results Six hours after the EGDT, the results for the patients were all up to standard. There were 21 cases of survival (55.26%) and 17 cases of death (44.74%). The total fluid input and liquid types were similar in the two groups (Pgt;0.05). The urine output and lactate clearance at hour 6 and 24 for the survival group were better than that for the dead group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion The lactate clearance and urine output can be regarded as an surveillance indicator of fluid resuscitation for patients with septic shock.
