Objective We generated an experimental canine model of heterogeneous emphysema.The dogs subsequently underwent unilateral bronchoscopic lung volume reduction(BLVR).Observing the postoperative condition of ventilation/perfusion,blood gas analysis,respiratory dynamics,hemodynamic measurement,HRCT and radiologic outcomes,compared with the preoperative level,the correlative mechanism and the effects of BLVR were analyzed.Methods There were 15 healthy dogs that were treated samely with localized papain instillations under bronchoscopic guidance to generate heterogeneous emphysema.The right dorsal lobe was selected as the target area.All dogs were divided into 3 groups randomly.Group A was control group;Group B and Group C received BLVR 6 weeks later while group A was raised as the same way.Group B underwent endobronchial valve insertion(EVI);Group C underwent bronchial blocking with albumin gel.Measurements were made in each animal at 3 time points:prior to papain exposure(base-line),after establishment of emphysema(6 weeks later),6 weeks after BLVR.Data included blood gas analysis(PaO2,PaCO2),respiratory dynamics(respiratory peak pressure,lung compliance),hemodynamic measurement(pulmonary artery pressure,pulmonary capillary vessel wedge pressure),nuclear ventilation/perfusion scan(CTS,CTS/PIX).Dogs were euthanized at 6-week time point followed by autopsy.The data was statistically managed and compared.Results After development of emphysema,all dogs exhibitted aggravation in PaO2,PaCO2,PAP and lung compliance(P0.05).Through ventilation/perfusion scan,CTS/PIX of the target areas reduced(P

Objective:To investigate the expression of serum caspase-cleaved cytokeratin 18(CCCK-18) in patients with cerebral ischemic stroke and its diagnostic value.Methods:One hundred and six patients with cerebral ischemic stroke who were diagnosed and treated in Affiliated Dongfeng Hospital from October 2018 to October 2019 were selected as the study group. Ninety patients who underwent digital subtraction angiography (DSA) during the same period and showed no other abnormalities inside or outside the skull were selected as control group. The baseline data of gender, age, drinking history, smoking history, hypertension history, diabetes history, coronary heart disease, and other subjects in the two groups had no significant differences ( P>0.05). Cubital venous blood of 5 ml from two groups of subjects were collected, and the level of serum CCCK-18 was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were detected by enzymatic method. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of serum CCCK-18 in patients with ischemic stroke, and the relationship between serum CCCK-18 and TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C were analyzed by Pearson test. Results:The levels of serum CCCK-18, TC, TG, and LDL-C in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group: (158.10 ± 50.89) U/L vs. (85.57 ± 35.25) U/L, (4.26 ± 0.92) mmol/L vs. (3.92 ± 0.80) mmol/L, (2.34 ± 0.53) mmol/L vs. (1.83 ± 0.47) mmol/L, (3.12 ± 0.73) mmol/L vs. (2.61 ± 0.67) mmol/L, and HDL-C level was lower than that in the control group: (1.20 ± 0.24) mmol/L vs. (1.32 ± 0.28) mmol/L, and there were significant differences ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that CCCK-18, TC, TG, LDL-C, and HDL-C were independent risk factors for patients with ischemic stroke ( P<0.05). The area under the curve(AUC) of serum CCCK-18 to distinguish ischemic stroke from the control group was 0.878, with a sensitivity of 84.91% and a specificity of 78.89%. The AUC of serum CCCK-18 to identify patients with mild ischemic stroke was 0.763, with a sensitivity of 70.37% and a specificity of 78.89%. Correlation analysis showed that serum CCCK-18 was positively correlated with TC, TG, and LDL-C in patients with ischemic stroke ( r = 0.711, 0.722, 0.705), and negatively correlated with HDL-C ( r = - 0.714), and there were significant differences ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Serum CCCK-18 levels are significantly increased in patients with cerebral ischemic stroke, which can be used as a biomarker for diagnosis and judgment of disease severity.

Objective To investigate the effect of penehyclidine (PHCD) on Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)mRNA and Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) mRNA expression in the lung tissue in rats with acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) .Methods Sixty healthy SD rats of both sexes weighing 200-220 g were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 12 each) :control group (group C) , LPS group and P1-3 groups. Acute lung injury was induced by intraperitoneal (IP) LPS 8 mg/kg in LPS and P1-3 groups. PHCD 0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 mg/kg were given IP after LPS administration in P1-3 groups. The animals were anesthetized at 6 h after IP LPS. Blood samples were collected for determination of serum TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations ( by ELISA) and then sacrificed, the lungs were immediately removed for determination of TLR4 mRNA and TLR2 mRNA expression (by RT-PCR), and microscopic examination. Results LPS significantly increased TLR4 mRNA and TLR2 mRNA expression in the lung tissue and serum TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations. PHCD 1.0 or 3.0 mg/kg significantly inhibited LPS-induced increase in TLR4 mRNA and TLR2 mRNA expression in the lung tissue and serum TNF-α and ILr6 concentrations.The lung histopathologic damage was significantly ameliorated in P2 and P3 groups as compared with group LPS.Conclusion PHCD can protect the lungs against LPS-induced acute lung injury through inhibiting TLR4 mRNA and TLR2 mRNA expression in the lung tissue and reducing the inflammatory response.

Objective To eraluate the methods and results of endoscopic mucosal resections for colonic laterally spreading tumors with early malignant degeneration. Methods The pit pattern was studied with magnitying colonoscopy and mucosal staining technique for colonic laterally spreading tumors (LST) undergoing early earcinatous degeneration. They were removed with endoscopic mucosal resection techniques. A follow-up study was made. Results Eight patients suffering from early carcinoma on top of colonic laterally spreading tumors were followed-up. ① 75% of the lesions were situated in the rectum, sigmoid colon and decending colon. ② 75% of the lesions were larger than 30mm in diameter. ③ 75% of the lesions belonged to Ⅳpit pattern. ④ 62.5% of the lesions were Villous adenomas and 75% of the onalignant change involved the mucosa only. ⑤ All the lesions were completely removed by EMR, ⑥ No local residual lesion, recurrence or metastasis was discovered in all the patients after a mean follow-up period of 20.7 months. Conclusions Most of the early carcinomas originated from colonic LST involved the mucosa only. Endoscopic mucosal resection may be a curative method for the early cancer arising from colonic LST.

Objective This meta-analysis assessed the value of interferon-γ release assays (IGRAs) in the differential diagnosis of intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) from Crohn's disease (CD).Methods Systematic search without language restriction was conducted in the main computerized databases until June 2015.Studies that have evaluated the performance of IGRAs (QuantiFERON-TB Gold or T-SPOT.TB) in distinguishing ITB from CD were eligible.Main outcome measures included sensitivity and specificity.Area under the curve (AUC) of the summary receiver operating characteristic (sROC) curve was used to evaluate the accuracy of IGRAs.Results Twelve studies (all from Asia) were finally included.The pooled sensitivity and specificity of IGRAs for the differential diagnosis of ITB from CD were 82.8％ (95％CI 78.4％-86.6％) and 86.7％ (95％ CI 83.2％-89.6％) respectively.The positive likelihood ratio (PLR) and negative likelihood ratio (NLR) were 6.870 (95％ CI 5.345-8.830) and 0.171 (95％ CI 0.105-0.279).The diagnostic odds ratio was 44.030 (95％ CI 27.964-69.325).And the AUC of sROC was 0.939.Conclusions IGRAs have a high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of ITB,and specificity is consistent from study to study.IGRAs may be considered as a supplementary method in the differential diagnosis of ITB from CD.
