ObjectiveTo explore effect of α-adrenoceptor on modulating water of lung in severe acute pancrea-titis (SAP) rat. MethodsThe SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (n=5) and SAP group,the SAP group was divided into subgroups of SAP-4 h (n=5) and SAP-24 h (n=5).SAP model was made by injecting taurocholate into bilopancreatic duct.The wet-to-dry ratio,alveolar fluid clearance (AFC),and AFC affected by α1-adrenoceptor inhibitor-prazosin and α2-adrenoceptor inhibitor-yohimbine separately or together were measured in the lungs.The α1-adrenoceptor and α2-adrenoceptor mRNA expressions in the lungs tissues were measured by real-time PCR. Results① The wet-to-dry ratios in the SAP-4 h group and SAP-24 h group were obviously decreased as compared with the sham operation group (P<0.05),which in the SAP-24 h group was significantly lower than that in the SAP-4 h group (P<0.05).② The AFCs in the SAP-4 h group and SAP-24 h group were obviously increased as compared with the sham operation group (P<0.05).The AFCs in the SAP with α1-adrenoceptor inhibitor-prazosin or α2-adrenocpetor inhibitor-yohimbine or prazosin combined with yohimbine were all obviously decreased as compared with the SAP group (P<0.05).③ The α1 adrenoceptor and α2 adrenoceptor mRNAs in the SAP-4 h group and SAP-24 h group were obviously increased as compared with the sham operation group (P<0.05). ConclusionAFC might be modulated by α-adrenoceptor in SAP rat.
ObjectiveTo summarize the variation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) after thyroidectomy and the influence factors of postthyroidectomy hypocalcemia (PHC). MethodsClinical data of 95 patients who underwent thyroidectomy in Affiliated Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from Jan. 2015 to Dec. 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsOf the 95 patients, there were 27 patient (28.42%) suffered from PHC (PHC group), and levels of serum calcium in the other 68 patients (71.58%) were normal (normal group). There was no significant difference in levels of serum calcium and PTH between the PHC group and normal group before operation (P > 0.05), but levels of serum calcium and PTH in PHC group were both lower than corresponding index of normal group after operation (P < 0.05). The levels of serum calcium and PTH both decreased in PHC group after operation (P < 0.05), and only PTH level decreased in normal group after operation (P < 0.05). PHC was related with type of operation, who underwent two-side operation had higher risk of PHC (P < 0.05), but there was no significant relationship between PHC and gender or age (P > 0.05). ConclusionsPTH is an important factor for PHC. In addition, it is easier to occur PHC when the operative range become bigger.
