Objective To establish a scaffold model from heterogeneoussmall blood vessels. Methods Caudal arteries from 34 Wistar rats( average length 12.08±1.69 cm) were made into acellular blood vessel scaffolds. Some scaffoldswere observed by electron microscope, and others were transplanted to the cut ends of ear central arteries of male Japanese big ear white rabbits. Results Average external diameter was 0.74±0.08 mm in proximal, and 0.55±0.08 mm in distal end of rat caudal arteries. The small blood vessel scaffolds had shin wall whichwas white and soft, composed of fibrous tissues without cells. On the intima surface the fibrous tissues were arrayed densely in a grid-like pattern. After transplantation, the blood flow was reserved, and kept flowing freely in 24 hours. The pulsation of the transplanted artery was accessible and no blood leakage wasfound.Conclusion The natural scaffolds are composed of fibrous tissues, and can sustain the artery pulse pressure for 24 hours. It is better to suture the blood vessels by sleeve anastomosis.
The experience on management of abnormal blood vessels in 128 cases of donor kidney during the tailoring operation was reported. The various techniques used for different types of abnormal arteries and veins, and the critical points which should be paid attention to have been discussed. It was concluded that the multiple renal arteries should be treated in a single renal artery and anastomosed with internal iliac artery or/and external iliac artery. The appropriate management given to abnormal renal blood vessels during the tailoring operation may shorten the warm ishemia time, ensure the renal blood supply, reduce the renal vasular complication, and promote the recovery of renal function.
ObjectiveTo observe the changes of vessel densities (VD) in the macula and optic disc and its correlation with axial length (AL) in pathological myopia (PM). MethodsA retrospective clinical study. A total of 171 eyes from 171 patients admitted to Department of Ophthalmology of Jinshan Hospital of Fudan University from June 2019 to December 2019 were included in this study. Among them, there were 72 males and 99 females; age was 35.0±10.8 years old. The patients were divided into PM group, high myopia (HM) group and non-HM group, 51 cases with 51 eyes, 70 cases with 70 eyes, and 50 cases with 50 eyes, respectively. Optical coherence tomography angiography was used to scan the macular and optic disc areas of all the examined eyes in the range of 6 mm×6 mm. According to the early treatment of diabetic retinopathy study, the 6 mm macular and optic disc scan range was centered on the macular fovea and optic disc, respectively, then divided into two concentric circles with diameters of 1 mm of central area, an annulus between 1-3 mm circles of paracentral area. The paracentral area was divided into superior, inferior, nasal, temporal four quadrants by 2 radiation lines. The VD of superficial capillary plexus (SCP), deep capillary plexus (DCP), outer retina, and choriocapillaris layer were calculated in the central, superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal areas, respectively. The VD of PM, HM and non-HM groups were compared. The variance analysis was used to compare the VD among the three groups; Pearson’s correlation was used to assess the correlation between VD and AL. ResultsThe perifoveal VD of the SCP, outer retina and choriocapillaris layers were all lower in the PM than those of HM and non-HM group, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). The VD of DCP macular central was higher in the PM than in the HM group, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.020). In the optic disc, the VD were lower in the PM group than in the non-HM group except for the area of DCP superior, inferior, temporal, outer retinal center, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). The results of correlation analysis showed that the VD in the DCP macular central, ONH superior and the choriocapillaris ONH central were not correlated with AL (P=0.647, 0.688, 0.146), and the other VDs were negatively correlated with AL (P＜0.05). ConclusionCompared with HM and non-HM groups, the majority of VDs in macular and ONH are lower in participants with PM.
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and mechanisms of ocular manifestations related to carotid artery stenosis. Methods The general clinic data and related ocular manifestations in 124 patients with carotid artery stenosis were retrospectively. Results In the 124 patients, 36 (29%) had ocular manifestations, and 28 (22. 6 %) complained the ocular discomfort as the first symptom. Among the 36 patients, 31 patients (86.1%) had been disclosed unilateral or double stenosis of internal carotid artery by carotid Doppler ultrasound examination, and the result of digital subtract angiography revealed middle and severe degree of internal carotid artery stenosis in 8 and 23 patients respectively. There was no statistic difference of incidence of ocular manifestations between 67 patients of severe internal carotid artery stenosis and 34 patients with middle one（chi;２test,P =0.266 2，P＞0.05). The ocular manifestations included amaurosis fugax (52.8%),acute decline or loss of the visual ability and defect of visual fields (36.1%), binocular diplopia (13.9%), ptosis (13.9%), and persistent high intraocular pressure(2.8%) one patient might had several ocular manifestations simultaneously. In 36 patients, central retinal artery occlusion had been diagnosed in 4, venous stasis retinopathy in 1,central or branch retinal vein occlusion in 6, neovascular glaucoma in 1, and anterior ischemic opticneuropathy in 2. One patient with double occlusion of internal carotid artery didnrsquo;t have any ocular manifestation. Conclusion Carotid artery stenosis, especially internal carotid artery may lead to acute or chronic ocular ischemic lesions, and the occurrence of ocular manifestations in chronic ocular ischemic lesions relates to compensa tion of collateral circulation；patients with ocular ischemic lesions are recomm end to undergo a routine carotid artery examination.

Abstract: The ventricle assist device has emerged as an important therapeutic option in the treatment of both acute and chronic heart failure. The blood pumps which are the major components of ventricle assist devices have also progressed to the third generation. The magnetic and/or liquid levitation technologies have been applied into the third generation blood pumps. The impellers which drive blood are levitated in the blood pumps. The third generation blood pumps are mainly composed of the levitation system and the driving system. The development of the third generation blood pumps has three stages: the stage of foreign motor indirectly driving the impeller with the levitation and driving system separated, the stage of motor directly driving the impeller with the levitation and driving system separated, and the stage of levitation system integrated with the driving system. As the impellers do not contact with other structures, the third generation blood pumps possess the advantages of low thrombosis, less hemolysis and high energy efficiency ratio. Currently most of the third generation blood pumps are in the research stage, but a few number of them are used in clinical trials or applying stage. In this article, the history, classification, mechanism and research situation of the third generation blood pumps are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the method and conditions of isolation，proliferation of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells（MSCs）from human umbilical cord blood in vitro, and to induce osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation directly for identification. Methods Human umbilical cord blood was collected in asepsis condition, isolated by density gradient centrifugation,or sedimented red cell with methylcellulose, and then the same centrifugation was done, or obtained by negative immunodepletion of CD34+. These isolated mononuclear cells were used to carry on plastic adherent culture. To obtain single cellderived colonies, these cells were proliferated clonally in medium which consists of L-DMEM orMesencultTM medium and 10% fetal calf serum（FCS） respectively, then their differentiation potentiality to osteoblasts and lipoblasts was tested. Results The mononuclear cells isolated by sedimented and centrifugated way cultured in MesencultTM medium and 10%FCS were most available. These adhesive cells could become obviously short rodshape or shuttle-shape cells after 5-7 days.The colonies form well in 3rdpassage cells. The mononuclear cells obtained by onlycentrifugalized in density gradient were hard to form colony, isolated by immunomagnetic beads were hard to culture. The surface antigens of these colonies cells presented CD29, CD59, CD71 but not CD34,CD45 and HLADR etc. The colony cells differentiating into osteoblasts that produce mineralized matrices, stained by alizarin red, and differentiating into adipocytes that accumulate lipid vacuoles, stained by oil red. Conclusion MSCs can be isolated from human umbilical cord blood and proliferate it in vitro. The way that mononuclear cells are sedimented red cell by methylcellulose and cultured by MesencultTM medium and 10% FCS is the valid method of isolation. Proliferation colonies cells present matrix cell immunophenotypes, and candifferentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes.
Objective To observe the hemodynamic changes in the retina and choroid after scleral buckling surgery in eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). MethodsA prospective clinical observational study. A total of 25 eyes of 25 patients with RRD who underwent scleral buckling surgery in Tianjin Eye Hospital from February to April 2024 were included in the study. Among them, 10 were male and 15 were female. Age was 17-68 years old. All cases were monocular. The surgical eye and the contralateral healthy eye were divided into the affected eye group and the contralateral healthy eye group respectively. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), scanning source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA), and axial length (AL) measurements were performed 3 months after surgery. SS-OCTA examination of macular area was performed by VG200 of Visual Microimaging (Henan) Technology Co., LTD. Scanning range 21 mm×26 mm. According to the partitioning method of the early treatment group of glycosuria retinopathy, the retina within 21 mm of the macular fovea was divided into concentric circles with the macular fovea as the center and diameters of 1-3, 3-6, 6-12, 12-21 mm, respectively. The built-in software of the device was used to record the central area (12 mm×12 mm in the fovea of the macula) and the peripheral area (12-21 mm range) retinal superficial capillary plexus (SCP), deep capillary plexus (DCP), radial peripapillary capillaries (RPC) blood density and choroidal vascular index (CVI), choroidal vascular volume (CVV), and 1-3, 3-6, 6-12, 12-21 mm above concentric circles (S), nasal side (N), temporal side (T), and lower side (I) SCP, DCP, and RPC blood flow density. Quantitative data between the two groups were compared by independent sample t test or Wilcoxon signed rank test. The correlation between retinal and choroid blood flow parameters and postoperative BCVA was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis. ResultsCompared with the opposite healthy eye group, SCP blood density in the central area (Z=−4.372), DCP blood density in the central area (Z=−2.829), and CVI in the peripheral area (Z=−2.138) were decreased in the affected eye group, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). SCP: in the affected eye group, the blood flow density in T3-6 mm, T6-12 mm, N6-12 mm and T12-21 mm regions decreased, while the blood flow density in I6-12 mm regions increased, with statistical significance (P＜0.05). DCP: blood flow density in S6-12 mm, I6-12 mm, S12-21 mm and I12-21 mm regions decreased significantly, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). RPC: blood flow density decreased significantly in T6-12 mm and I12-21 mm, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). CVI: T6-12 mm, S12-21 mm, T12-21 mm, I12-21 mm significantly decreased, and T1-3 mm, S12-21 mm significantly increased, the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). Correlation analysis showed that AL growth was positively correlated with CVV in central region (r=0.408, P=0.040) . The number of pad pressure was negatively correlated with the blood density of central DCP (r=−0.422, P=0.030). ConclusionsAfter scleral buckling operation, the blood flow density and choroidal blood flow parameters in RRD affected eyes are lower than those in contralateral healthy eyes in some areas. The increase of AL is positively correlated with CVV in the central region, and the wider the range of pad pressure, the worse the recovery of DCP blood density.
This paper presents a kind of automatic segmentation method for white blood cell based on HSI corrected space information fusion. Firstly, the original cell image is transformed to HSI colour space conversion. Because the transformation formulas of H component piecewise function was discontinuous, the uniformity of uniform visual cytoplasm area in the original image was lead to become lower in this channel. We then modified formulas, and then fetched information of nucleus, cytoplasm, red blood cells and background region according to distribution characteristics of the H, S and I-channel, using the theory and method of information fusion to build fusion imageⅠand fusion imageⅡ, which only contained cytoplasm and a small amount of interference, and fetched nucleus and cytoplasm respectively. Finally, we marked the nucleus and cytoplasm region and obtained the final result of segmentation. The simulation results showed that the new algorithm of image segmentation for white blood cell had high accuracy, robustness and universality.
