Objective To study the protective effect of sodium ferulate (SF) on CPB-induced lung ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) and discuss its possible mechanism. Methods 40 patients undergoing CPB were randomly divided into contral group(CCG, n=20 ) and SF group(SFG, n=20). In SFG, SF was injected (0.2 g in NS 150 ml) intravenously Bid for one week preoperatively. In CCG, SF was replaced by same volume of NS. The changes of TNF-?、IL-6、IL-8、SOD level in the CCG and SFG would be examined before operation, at 15min、30 min after aortic cross clamp(ACC) and 1 hour after operation. By the time of before ACC、15 min and 30 min after ACC was opened, blood samples were taken from the right and left atrium to examine the amount of neutrophils. Lung tissues were cut for pathological studies in 5 patients in each group randomly. Results At 15 min、30 min after ACC and 1h after operation TNF-?、IL-6、IL-8、SOD levels of 2 groups were significantly higher than that before the operation (P

Objective: To observe the efficacy of mirtazapine in the treatment of depression after cerebral infarction and its effect on rehabilitation of neurological functions. Methods:117 patients with acute cerebral infarction comorbid with major depression were randomly allocated to two groups treated with mirtazapine (57 cases) or not (60 cases). Hamiltion Depression Rating Scale (HAMD), Zung's Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS), modified Edingburgh-Scandinavian Stroke Scale (SSS) and Activity of Daily Living(ADL) were measured at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 6 months after randomization.Results:At the end of 6 months trial, the effective rate for depression of mirtazapine group was 100%, including 41 with relief (41/57, 71.9%); while that of control group was 13.4% (3/60), with only 4 with relief (6.7%). For neurological function, 78.9% (45) patients in mirtazapine group had significant improvement, that number in control group was 31 (51.7%). From the third week, patients in mirtazapine group had better ADL results than baseline (31.2?11.2/39.2?15.8), at the end of 6 months, their activity of daily life was much better than that of control (15.7?5.4/21.8?9.7, t=4.17,P

Objectives To explore the effect of NF-?B signaling pathway on multicellular resistance(MCR) to 5-Fu in colon carcinoma cells.Methods The multicellular spheroids(MCS) of colon carcinoma HT-29 cell line were cultured by using liquid overlay technique,and the monolayer cells by using routine procedure.The morphology of MCS was observed with light microscope and scanning electronmicroscope(SEM).The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) was determined by immunohistochemistry.24 hours after adding 50?g/ml SN50 to spheroids cells,the 50% inhibiting concentration(IC50) for 5-Fu was determined by using radial outgrowth assay.The activity of NF-?B was measured by using electrophoretic mobility shift assay(EMSA) and the specific bands were observed.Apoptosis of spheroids cells,which were pretreated with 5?g/ml 5-Fu for 24 hours,was identified by TUNEL,the apoptosis related proteins caspase-3,Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by Western blotting and analyzed by semi-quantitative method.Results A necrotic core formed in the centre of MCS,and the peripheral cells were actively proliferating.Compared with the monolayer cultured cells,the activity of NF-?B was increased in MCS.When the activity of NF-?B in spheroid cells was inhibited by SN50,5-Fu readily induced cells to apoptosis(15.75%?1.02% vs 8.71%?0.73%,P

[Objective]To evaluate the clinical value of surgical treatment of multiple thoracolumbar spinal fractures by pedicle screw/rod Instrumentation system.[Method]Ninteen cases of male 14 and femal 5 of multiple injuries involving thoracic and lumbar spine were surgically treated through anterior approach by open reduction,selective vertebral canal decompression,internal fixation with pedicle screw/Rod spine instrumentation,and followed by anterior lateral bone graft fusion according to complex classification system 19 cases,Ba.m1T_(11) 1 cases,Ba.m.p2T_(11) 2 cases,Ba.m1T_(12) 1 cases,Ba.m.p2T_(12) 1cases,Ba.m.p3T_(12) 1cases,Ba.m1_L 4 cases,Ba.m.p2L_1 3cases,Fa.m.p3(T_(12),L_1) 2cases,Sa.m.p3L_2 1cases,Ba.m.p1L_2 1 cases.[Result]All cases were followed up form 6 to 15 months averageing 10.5 months.No implant failure and late kyphosis deformity was observed.The average vertebra height was improved from preoperative 48.14% to postoperative 92.14%.The postoperative neurological function in two cases of complete spina lcord injuries and 11 incomplete spina lcord injuries were improved according to JOA criterion.Astable bone fusion according to radiological criteria was achieved in call cases postoperatively,and progressive compression did not occur.[Conclusion]Pedicle screw/rod instrumentation system can achieve effective reduction for the fractured vertebrae and simultaneously restore spine stability on the basis of adequate vertebral canal decompression.Posterior spine instrumentation is an ideal choice for surgical treatment of thoracolumbar unstable fractures with or without spinal cord dysfunction.

Objective To explore the relationship between cerebrovascular steno-occlusive disease and neuropsychological performance by cognitive function assessment.Methods Using a case-control study,45 patients with cerebrovascular steno-occlusive lesions (patient group) and 59 control subjects without cerebrovascular steno-occlusive disease were included,36 simple hypertension (hypertension group)and 34 simple diabetes mellitus subjects (diabetes mellitus group) without cerebrovascular steno-occlusive disease were also included.A battery of neuropsychological was performed in all subjects.The test battery included tests of memory,executive functions,mental speed,visuospatial ability and visuoconstructive skill,anxietas and depression.Results Patient group showed impairments in multiple cognitive domains compared with other three groups.The immediate recall of auditory verbal learning test (controls 56.8 ± 6.5 ;patient group 48.5 ± 10.1 ;hypertension group 53.5 ±9.0 ;diabetes mellitus group 55.9 ± 7.9;t =-3.57-4.822,P =0.000-0.021) were impaired seriously.Moreover,visual memory Modified Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test immediate recall,long time delayed recall and executive function California cards sorting test were also impaired.Patient group was divided into two subgroups,and neuropsychological tests of these subgroups were compared.Multiple stenosis subgroup had significantly worse performance in tests of verbal memory and some executive functions than the single artery stenosis subgroup.Conclusions Cerebrovascular steno-occlusive disease was associated with poorer neuropsychological performance,which could not be explained by vascular risk factors.Multiple stenosis subgroup had lower performance levels in neuropsychological tests than simple stenosis subgroup.Ischemia or hypoperfusion caused by steno-occlusive disease might be responsible for these cognitive impairments.

Objective To study the therapeutic effect of pinaverium bromid and oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet on patients with bile duct Ⅲ of sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (SOD) after cholecystectomy.Methods 72 patients who had a diagnosis consistent with bile duct Ⅲ of SOD seen from February 2010 to February 2013 in our hospital were randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group.Patients in the control group were given pinaverium bromid for 3 months while patients in the treatment group were,in addition to pinaverium bromid,given oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet.Relief of abdominal pain,abdominal distention and recurrence of the above symptoms after drug withdrawal were studied.Results The scores on abdominal pain in the treatment group before and after treatment were 7.5 ± 1.1 and 3.0 ± 1.6 (P ＜ 0.05) while the scores in the control group were 7.4 ± 1.1 and 5.0 ± 1.4 (P ＜ 0.05),respectively.Alleviation of abdominal pain in the treatment group was superior to the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The scores on abdominal distention in the treatment group before and after treatment were 5.4 ± 0.6 and 1.6 ± 0.5 (P ＜ 0.05) while the scores in the control group were 5.2 ± 0.5 and 4.7 ± 0.8 (P ＞ 0.05),respectively.Alleviation of abdominal distention in the treatment group was superior to the control group (P ＜0.05).The scores of abdominal pain and distention in half year after 3 months' therapy in the treatment group were 3.1 ± 1.7 and 1.7 ± 1.1,respectively,which obviously were lower than the control group (5.4 ± 1.4 and 5.0 ± 0.6,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Pinaverium bromid and oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet could effectively alleviate abdominal pain and distention in patients with bile duct Ⅲ of SOD after cholecystectomy and the recurrence rates of symptoms were significantly lower.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of postcholecystectomy syndrome (PCS), and provide theoretical basis for the prevention of PCS. Methods A total of 338 patients with PCS were randomly selected in our hospital from May 1st 2013 to April 30th 2014, in which 316 cases were successful followed up including 101 males and 215 females. The data were collected from the 7 aspects including blood type, drinking history, smoking history, diabetes history, mental anxiety, dietary tendence and preoperative symptoms, and which were analyzed by binary-logistic regression analysis. Results According to the PCS diagnostic criteria, 115 patients were diagnosed with PCS (36.39%). The anxiety status and preoperative discomfort were closely related to the occurrence of PCS, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion The diagnosis and treatment of PCS are more complicated. We should focus on the prevention of PCS according to its risk factors, and pay attention to preoperative communication and individualized analysis of patients in order to reduce the occurrence of PCS.

Earthquake is one of the sudden major natural disasters,with a serious threat to human life and property safety,and also an enormous challenge to public health security.During earthquake the collapse of the houses and falling of heavy objects often resulted in a large number of patients with spinal fractures,which would create different levels of spinal cord injury(SCI),contributing to permanent disability.Those are closely related to the first aid of spinal fractures,clinical treatment and comprehensive rehabilitation post-earthquake.However,after earthquake,how to reduce the degree of disabilities of SCI patients and to improve their quality of life is not only a medical problem,but also a social problem.

Patients with spinal cord injury(SCI)required higher level of quality of life(QOL),in fact,the disorder of lower limbs motion is the major factor which restricted the independence of social involvement.Routine rehabilitation training,lower extremity orthosis,functional electrical stimulation(FES)and the combined application of those are still the widely used approaches.Meanwhile,the auto-nerve transferring and auto-tendon operation are also the fields that researchers focus on.In practice,we have to choose proper method individually according to the patients' conditions to restore the lower limbs function,so as to improve the QOL.

The advance of the modern science and technology provides some new approaches,such as brain-computer interface(BCI),neuroprothesis,rehabilitation robots,body-weight supported treadmill training(BWST),etc.In practice,the advantages and disadvantages of those approaches manifest more and more,and the combination of them is the trend.It is necessary to choose proper method individually.
