AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate the process of angiogenesis in cancer by analyzing differences in blood vessels marked with three antibodies: CD31, CD34, and CD105.
- Results showed that blood vessels marked with CD34 were significantly more numerous than those marked with the other two antibodies, indicating CD34's possible role in neoangiogenesis.
- The findings suggest that around 40% of vessels in tumor areas are newly formed, highlighting the need to consider this factor for effective treatment strategies in colorectal adenocarcinoma.
Article Abstract
Purpose: Angiogenesis is an important step in the process of cancer growth. The purpose of this study was to determine the neoangiogenesis with CD31, CD34 and CD105, and tried to observe the differences between these three antibodies.
Material/methods: The blood vessels stained with CD31, CD 34 and CD105 were counted, and we reported their number per square millimeter to obtain microvascular density (MVD). For angiogenesis quantification we determined the neoformation blood vessels with CD105. The CD31 and CD34 were used as control markers, in order to observe the difference between neoformation blood vessels and mature vessels.
Results: Comparing the average effective vessels marked with the 3 markers, Student t test showed that the mean number of blood vessels market with CD 34 is higher than blood vessels market with CD31 and CD 105. The value of the Student t test was highly significant in all three cases (p<0.001). By calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient for the relationship CD31-CD105 we obtained a value r = 0.440, which corresponds to p = 0.0013 < 0.05, indicating a statistically significant direct correlation between the two factors.
Conclusions: An important number of vessels (around 40%) that can be found in tumor area are neoformation vessels, this concept being an important assessment for the choice of the correct and effective treatment in colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Usefulness of Tapered Cutting Needles for Lymphaticovenular Anastomosis.
Lymphat Res Biol

Department of Plastic and Reconstructive, Aesthetic Surgery, Toyama University Hospital, Toyama, Japan.
We report the usefulness of a tapered cutting needle, which has a polyhedral tip similar to that of a square needle and transitions to a round tip in the middle, for super-microsurgery. We have performed more than 500 lymphaticovenular anastomoses (LVAs) using tapered cutting needles. Therefore, we investigated the caliber of the anastomosed lymphatic vessels and veins, characteristics of the lymphatic vessels, the time required to perform the anastomosis, damage to the lymphatic vessels and veins during anastomosis, and patency of 30 recently performed consecutive anastomoses.

Background: ANDROMEDA-SHOCK 2 is an international, multicenter, randomized controlled trial comparing hemodynamic phenotype-based, capillary refill time-targeted resuscitation in early septic shock to standard care resuscitation to test the hypothesis that the former is associated with lower morbidity and mortality in terms of hierarchal analysis of outcomes.
Objective: To report the statistical plan for the ANDROMEDA--SHOCK 2 randomized clinical trial.
Methods: We briefly describe the trial design, patients, methods of randomization, interventions, outcomes, and sample size.
Trajectory of the arterial-alveolar oxygen gradient in COPD for a decade.
PLoS One

Department of Respiratory Medicine, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Kyoto, Japan.
Background: Chronic respiratory failure (CRF) is a critical complication in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is characterized by an increase in the arterial-alveolar oxygen gradient (A-aDO2). The long-term trajectory and prognostic significance remain unclear. This study aimed to assess the prognostic impact of A-aDO2 and elucidate its trajectory over ten years.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by NADPH oxidase promote contraction of peripheral arteries, which is especially pronounced in early postnatal period in comparison to adulthood, but the mechanisms of such vasomotor influence are poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that Rho-kinase and protein kinase C (PKC) mediate procontractile influence of NADPH oxidase derived ROS in peripheral artery of early postnatal rats. In addition, we evaluated the involvement Src-kinase and L-type voltage-gated Ca channels (LTCC) into procontractile influence of ROS, produced by NADPH oxidase, because of their known interplay with Rho-kinase and PKC pathways.
