AIM: To explore the effects of Compound Yi-Zhi (YZC) on learning and memory capacity and free radical metabolism in D-galactose induced mice dementia model. METHODS: The mice dementia model was induced by a daily D-galactose 0.15 g?kg -1 sc for 45 d and after 5 d D-galactose injection, the mice were treated with three doses of YZC once a day for 40 d. In order to find out the influence of YZC on the models learning and memory capability and free radical metabolism system, Y-maze test was introduced for the former and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) tests for the latter. RESULTS: Compared with the D-galactose model group, three doses of YZC administration ( 0.108, 0.217, 0.433 g?kg -1) were all shown to significantly reduced the times of learning/memory in Y-maze test from 31.35? 8.97/ 17.12? 5.57 to 19.67? 8.07/ 11.27? 6.65, to 14.00? 6.84/ 8.29? 5.95, and to 11.41? 5.99/ 6.24? 4.97, respectively. For SOD, the administrations of 0.108 and 0.433 g?kg -1 YZC could increase the activity of SOD from 17.69? 3.14 to 26.94? 4.46, and to 21.33? 3.63 nU?mg -1 pro. While for MDA, all the three doses of YZC could decrease the level of MDA from 4.08? 0.88 to 2.82? 0.75, to 2.10? 0.42, and to 2.35? 0.39 nmol?mg -1 pro in the mice brain tissue, respectively. CONCLUSION: YZC can improve the D-galactose induced learning and memory dysfunction, and the action may be related to the improvement of antioxidase activity in the model mice brains.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of intravenous methylprednisolone for prevention of tracheal intubation-related laryngopharyngeal complications.Methods Three hundred ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 20-50 yr,weighing 50-80 kg,undergoing elective surgeries,requiring tracheal intubation under general anesthesia,were included and randomized into 5 groups (n =60 each).Methylprednisolone 40 and 80 mg were injected intravenously at 30 min before induction of anesthesia in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ,respectively,while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group Ⅲ.Methylprednisolone 40 and 80 mg were injected intravenously at 30 min before extubation in groups Ⅳ and Ⅴ,respectively.The sore throat,hoarseness and cough were recorded within 24 h after extubation and the severity was evaluated at 1 and 24 h after extubation.Results There was no significant difference in the incidence and severity of sore throat,hoarseness and cough between the five groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Intravenous methylprednisolone can not effectively prevent tracheal intubation-related laryngopharyngeal complications in patients.

Objective To investigate the preventing and curative value of endoscopic injectim sclerotherapy underlying endoscopic variceal ligations in the treatment of the patients suffering form esophageal varix recurrence.Methods The endoscopic injection sclerotherapy was performed to the patients whose esophageal varix varnished or nearly varnished after the endoscopic variceal ligation.Results There were sinificant differences (P ＜ 0.05 ) between the group of the endoscopic variceal ligation combining more dose laurornacrogol and the group of the single endoscopic variceal ligation at the recurrence rate of bleeding.No severe complications were observed during the treatments.Conclusion The endoscopic injection clerotherapy of more amount doses lauromacrogol after the endoscopic variceal ligation can signiticantly reduce residual esophageal varix after the endoscopic variceal ligation and dday esophageal varix recurrrence.

BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional printing to prepare a digital model can improve the accuracy of orbital fracture repair, and has a good clinical prospect.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of individualized titanium mesh based on the digital model in the reconstruction of orbital fracture.METHODS: Twelve cases of orbital fracture were admitted at the Hospital of Stomatology, Southwest Medical University from January 2014 to October 2015. CT scanning in axial, coronal, sagittal planes and three-dimensional reconstruction were performed routinely in all cases preoperatively. Digital model was designed by 3D printing technology according to the CT data. Individualized titanium mesh was shaped based on the digital model and used to repair orbital fracture. The accuracy of the reconstructed orbit was assessed based on the postoperative CT scan.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Postoperative CT scans showed that the implanted individualized titanium meshes were capable of accurately reconstructing the fractured orbit in all the 12 patients, and there was no infection, and titanium mesh loosening, prolapse, and rejection. With healthy eyes as controls, 11 cases of eyeball retraction were corrected completely, and only 1 case was still under correction. Diplopia symptoms disappeared in the 8 of 9 cases, and relieved in the 1 of 9 cases. Seven cases of eye movement limitation recovered postoperatively. To conclude, the individualized titanium mesh has great accuracy to repair orbital fractures in patients without serious complications,which has achieved good clinical outcomes in the orbital reconstruction.

Objective To summarize our experience in the prevention and treatment of accessory hepatic duct injury during operation on biliary tract.Methods The clinical data of 26 cases with accessory hepatic duct were retrospectively reviewed.Results Of 26 cases,the accessory hepatic duct were type I in 38.5%(10/26),and no complications including bile leakage,biliary infection and obstructive jaundice developed after division and ligation of the accessory hepatic duct;26.9%(7/26) were type II,among which,the accessory hepatic duct were injured in 3 cases,but no case developecl complications after relevant treatment;23.0%(6/26) were type III,among which,injury of accessory bile duct occurred in 2 cases.Of them,1 case developed bile leakage and was cured by reoperation.7.7%(2/26) were type IV and 3.9%(1/26) was type V.The cases of type IV and V were not damaged.Conclusions To prevent injury of accessory hepatic duct,pre-and intra-operation identification of the condition is very important,and especially by intraoperative cholangiography.Different types of accessory hepatic duct injury should be treated by different approaches. Accessory hepatic duct of type I might be cut and ligated.Type II accessory bile duct which(enters) the cystic duct and should be protected,but,if damaged,different methods of treatment are used,(depending) on the caliber of accessory hepatic duct.Type III and IV also should be protected,but,when damaged,the accessory hepatic duct should be repaired or performed an internal draining.

Zebrafish toxicity assessment system is one of the important vertebrate model systems. Zebrafish is playing an increas-ingly important role in the field of toxicology studies because of its small size, short generation cycle, the transparent embryo and high reproductive rate. Now it is widely used in the embryonic derelopmental toxicology, pathological toxicology, environmental toxicology and other areas of toxicology studies with its unique advantages.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine on inflammatory response during the perioperative period in patients with acute craniocerebral trauma.Methods Seventy ASA Ⅰ-Ⅳ patients of both sexes,aged 20-68 yr,with craniocerebral trauma,who required decompressive craniectomy within the next 24 h,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =35 each) ∶ control group (group C) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl,propofol and cisatracurium and maintained with remifentanil,sevoflurane and propofol and intermittent iv boluses of cisatracurium.In group D,dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg was infused over 10 min,followed by infusion at 0.4 μg· kg-1 · h-1 for 2 h.Venous blood samples were taken before induction of anesthesia (baseline),2 h after the beginning of operation,at the end of operation and at 24 h after operation (T1-T4) to determine the concentrations of serum neurone specific enolase (NSE),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α).Results Compared with group C,the concentrations of serum NSE,IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly decreased in group D (P ＜ 0.05).The concentrations of serum NSE,IL-6 and TNF-αwere significantly higher at T2 and T3,and the concentration of serum TNF-α was significantly lower at T4 than at T1 in group C (P ＜ 0.05).The concentrations of serum NSE and IL-6 were significantly higher at T2 and T3 and lower at T4 and the concentration of serum TNF-α was significantly higher at T3 and T4 than at T1 in group D (P ＜0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine protects the brain against acute craniocerebral trauma by inhibiting systemic inflammatory response during the perioperative period.
