ObjectiveTo study the effects of continuous regional arterial infusion (CRAI) of dexamethasone on plasma inflammatory factors of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) rabbits. MethodsTwentyfour rabbits were randomly divided into sham operation group, SAP group, intravenous infusion of dexamethasone group and CRAI of dexamethasone group (each group 6 rabbits) by random number table. The serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, and amylase (AMY) levels in rabbits were tested at hour 0.5, 3, 6, 9, and 12 after modeling succeed. The pathological changes of pancreas and the survival were observed on day 3 after modeling succeed. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group, the serum levels of IL-6 significantly increased at 3 h and reached the peak at 6 h, decreased at 9 h (all Plt;0.05); levels of IL-10 significantly increased at 6 h, continuously elevated at 9 h and 12 h (all Plt;0.001); levels of TNF-α significantly increased at 0.5 h (Plt;0.001), reached the peak at 6 h (Plt;0.001) and decreased at 9 h (Plt;0.05); levels of AMY significantly increased at 9 h, continuously elevated at 12 h (all Plt;0.05) in the SAP group. Compared with the SAP group, the serum levels of IL-6 and IL-10 in the CRAI of dexamethasone group all significantly decreased at 6 h, 9 h, and 12 h (Plt;0.001); levels of IL6 significantly decreased only at 6 h in the intravenous infusion of dexamethasone group; levels of TNF-α in the CRAI of dexamethasone group significantly decreased at 3 h, 6 h, 9 h, and 12 h (all Plt;0.001), which in the intravenous infusion of dexamethasone group significantly decreased only at 6 h (Plt;0.05); levels of AMY in the CRAI of dexamethasone group and intravenous infusion of dexamethasone group all significantly decreased at 12 h (Plt;0.05). Compared with the intravenous infusion of dexamethasone group, the serum levels of IL-6 and IL-10 in the CRAI of dexamethasone group all significantly decreased at 6 h (Plt;0.05) and 12 h (Plt;0.001); levels of TNF-α all significantly decreased at 3 h, 6 h, 9 h, and 12 h (all Plt;0.001); levels of AMY were not significantly different (Pgt;0.05). The pathological changes of pancreas in the CRAI of dexamethasone group were obvious, the death of rabbits reduced on day 3 after modeling succeed. ConclusionCRAI dexamethasone can effectively reduce the systemic inflammatory response and pancreatic inflammation, and reduce mortality.
ObjectiveTo study the expression of cyclooxygenase2 (COX2) and its clinical significance in gastric carcinoma. MethodsThe expression of COX2 in 47 cases of gastric carcinoma and 16 cases of normal gastric tissue were detected by SP immunohistochemical technique. Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection was diagnosed by urease experiment and Giemsa staining.ResultsThere was no positive signal of COX2 detected in normal gastric tissue. The positive expression rate of COX2 was 63.8%(30/47) in gastric carcinoma.The expression of COX2 was correlated with TNM stage, lymph node metastasis and H.pylori infection（P＜0.01）. Positive COX2 expression rate in H.pylori infection group was 72.4%(21/29), significantly higher than that in the group without H.pylori infection.Conclusion COX2 expression is involved in the carcinogenesis and malignant progression of gastric carcinoma.The examination of COX2 may be helpful to judge biological behavior of gastric carcinoma.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors for acute lung injury(ALI) after orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT) and to explore the prevention and cure scheme.MethodsThe risk factors responsible for ALI in 4 patients undergoing OLT were analyzed with retrospective investigation.ResultsPortal pulmonary hypertension, longterm mechanical ventilation, severe infection, SIRS, hypercoagulability, overdose transfusion and kidney dysfunction were risk factors for ALI.ConclusionALI frequently occurred after OLT. Reducing and diminishing the risk factors is very important to avoid ALI after OLT.
Objective To investigate whether anterior cruciate l igament (ACL) reconstruction with the remnants and the remaining bundle preservation is beneficial for the revascularization of the graft or not. Methods Animal models of the ACL reconstruction in 18 healthy New Zealand White rabbits (2-3 months old) were made using about 2.5 cm long extensordigitorum longus tendon and randomly divided into three groups (n=6): remnants debridement group (group A), remnantspreservation group (group B) and remaining bundle preservation group (group C). The histological examination was made after 2, 4 and 8 weeks of operation. The intravascular injection of ink was used to observe the revascularization of the graft. The specimens were stained with HE method to observe the histological changes of the graft. Results All the animals were in good condition and had good knee functions in the observation period. There was no new vessel in groups A and B at 2 and 4 weeks postoperatively. And new vessels were observed in the synovium of the graft in group C. The areas of the vessels in group C were (505 ± 27) pixels at 2 weeks and (624 ± 23) pixels at 4 weeks. At 8 weeks postoperatively new vessels were observed in all the three groups. The new vessel areas of groups A, B and C were (674 ± 65), (836 ± 76) and (1 219 ± 146) pixels, respectively. The vessel areas of group C were significantly bigger than those of groups A and B (P lt; 0.05). The vessel area of group B was significantly bigger than that of group A (P lt; 0.05). The fibroblast amount in group B was significantly more than that in group A at 2 and 4 weeks postoperatively (P lt; 0.05). But there was no significant difference between them at 8 weeks postoperatively (P gt; 0.05). The fibroblast amount of group C was significantly more than that of group A (P lt; 0.05) at each observation time postoperatively. At 2 and 4 weeks postoperatively, the fibroblast amount of group C was significantly more than that of group B (P lt; 0.05), but there was no significant difference between them at 8 weeks postoperatively (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion ACL reconstruction with remnants and remaining bundle preservation is beneficial for the early revascularization and fibroblasts growing of the graft. So the course of necrosis, regeneration and remodel ing of the graft is shortened.
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of integrated treatment ( sequential noninvasive following invasive mechanical ventilation, bronchoscope suction, combined inhalation) in patients with acute respiratory failure induced by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) . Methods 59 elderly patients with COPD and acute respiratory failure in ICU fromJuly 2006 to July 2009 were enrolled in the study. The patients were randomized into three groups, ie. a non-invasive mechanical ventilation group ( NIV group) , a sequential non-invasive following invasive mechanical ventilation group ( SV group) , a integrated treatment group ( IT group) . APACHEⅡ score, clinical pulmonary infection score ( CPIS) ,arterial blood gas analysis, respiratory rate ( RR) , heart rate ( HR) , and mean artery blood pressure ( MAP)at 0 h, 3 h, 3 d, 12 d after treatment were recorded. Results With the extension of treatment time,APACHEⅡ score, CPIS score, RR, HR, PaCO2 , and white blood cells gradually reduced, while pH and PaO2 gradually increased in the three groups ( P lt;0. 05) . The differences in RR, HR, PaCO2 , and PaO2 at the time of 3 d and 12 d were significant between the three groups( P lt;0. 05) . The occurrence of pulmonary infection control ( PIC) window and ventilation associated pneumonia ( VAP) had no difference among the three groups( P gt;0. 05) . The duration of total mechanical ventilation, durations of ICU stay and hospital stay were shorter in SV group than those in NIV group( P lt;0. 05) . The duration of total mechanical ventilation,duration of invasive mechanical ventilation, durations of ICU stay and hospital stay were shorter in IT group than those in SV group( P lt;0. 05) . The incidence of VAP was higher in SV group than NIV group, but lower in IT group than SV group( P lt;0. 05) . Hospital mortality was lower in SV group than NIV group, and higher in IT group than SV group( P lt; 0. 05) . Conclusion In elderly COPD patients with acute respiratory failure, integrated treatment given early can reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation, the length of ICU and hospital stay, and decrease the morbidity of VAP and mortality.
Objective To study the interaction and mechanism of prostaglandin I2 (PGI2) receptor/thromboxane A2 (TxA2) receptor (IP/TP) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in ischemia reperfusion injury after liver transplantation of rat. Methods Rats were randomly divided into three groups: control group （n=16), orthotropic liver transplantation group （n=32) and nimesulide intervention group （n=32). The samples were obtained at 3 h, 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after operation. The expressions of COX-2, IP and TP mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the localization and expression of COX-2. Hematoxylin Eosin staining was used to classify the injury extent of liver. Serum ALT and AST levels were detected to evaluate the changes of liver enzyme. Results COX-2 protein expression detected by immunohistochemistry in orthotropic liver transplantation group mainly distributed in the district of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, liver cells and macrophage cells, which was significantly higher than control group and nimesulide intervention group. Expressions of IP mRNA, TP mRNA and COX-2 mRNA in the orthotropic liver transplantation group were significantly increased than those in control group (P＜0.05), and the ratio of IP/TP increased (P＜0.05). Expressions of IP mRNA and TP mRNA in nimesulide intervention group were significantly lower than that in the orthotropic liver transplantation group at 6 h and 12 h after operation (P＜0.05), and the ratio of IP/TP decreased at 3 h, 6 h and 24 h after operation (P＜0.05). The expression of COX-2 mRNA in nimesulide intervention group was significantly lower than that in the orthotropic liver transplantation group at 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after operation. In orthotropic liver transplantation group liver injury was obvious by HE staining, and more severve than that in nimesulide intervention group. Serum AST (each time) and ALT (3 h, 6 h and 12 h) levels in the orthotropic liver transplantation group were significantly higher than that in control group and nimesulide intervention group (P＜0.05) and peaked at 6 h after operation. Conclusion The balance of IP/TP takes part in and plays an important role in the ischemia reperfusion injury of liver transplantation. Changing imbalance of IP/TP may reduce liver transplantation ischemia reperfusion injury by inhibiting COX-2 expression.
