Objective To evaluate the treatment effect of sustained low-efficiency diafiltration( SLEDF) on patients with severe acute pancreatitis( SAP). Methods Forty-two patients with SAP were randomly divided into continuous veno-venous hemofiltration( CVVH)group with 22 patients and SLEDF group with 20 patients. In addition to routine treatment,patients in CVVH and SLEDF were administrated to patients respectively in two groups. Mortality,incidence of complication,clinical symptoms,sign and laboratory examination and recovery time were recorded and measured. The scores of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation( APACHE)II and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome( MODS ) were performed. The level of C-reactive protein( CRP ),tumor necrosis factor-α( TNF-α),interleukin( IL )-6 and IL-8 were measured. Results There were no significant differences in terms of the mortality(90. 91% vs. 90. 00%;χ2 =0. 010,P=0. 920),incidence of complication (18. 18% vs. 20. 00%;χ2 =0. 023,P =0. 881)and recovery time of clinical symptoms,sign and laboratory examination in CVVH group and SLEDF( P﹥0. 05 ). There were also no significant differences between CVVH and SLEDF group in terms of scores of APACHE II((12. 1 ± 6. 1)vs.(11. 9 ± 7. 2);t=0. 097,P=0. 920), MODS((4. 3 ± 1. 7)vs.(4. 4 ± 1. 8);t=0. 185,P=0. 850),CRP((161. 7 ± 22. 9)mg/L vs.(157. 6 ± 21. 8) mg/L;t=0. 594,P=0. 550),TNF-α((5. 8 ± 1. 9)ng/L vs.(5. 7 ± 1. 8)ng/L;t=0. 175,P=0. 860),IL-6 ((4. 1 ±1. 2)pg/L vs.(4. 2 ± 1. 1)pg/L;t =0. 282,P =0. 780)and IL-8((3. 3 ± 1. 4)pg/L vs.(3. 2 ± 1. 0)pg/L;t=0. 268,P=0. 790)at 72 h post-treatment. However,the above test indices were decreased at 72 h post-treatment than those at admission(P﹥0. 05). Conclusion SLEDF and CVVH are proved with same treatment effect based on the levels of inflammatory cytokine,alleviating pathogenetic condition and improving prognosis in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Objective To investigate the protective effect and its mechanism of edaravone against rat renal tubular epithelial cell injury induced by cisplatin. Methods The rat renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK-52E) were divided into the control, model control (50μmol·mL-1 cisplatin), group A (50μmol·mL-1 cisplatin plus 10μmol·mL-1 edaravone), B (50μmol·mL-1 cisplatin plus 20 μmol·mL-1 edaravone), and C (50 μmol·mL-1 cisplatin plus 40 μmol·mL-1 edaravone). The cell proliferation ability, content of malondialdehyde, activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD), level of reactive oxygen species ( ROS) , rate of apoptosis, express of protein and mRNA of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 activation of cell were detected. Results The proliferation and SOD activity in NRK-52E cells declined, malondialdehyde and ROS were elevated upon being co-cultured with cisplatin. Moreover, the rate of apoptosis, express of protein and mRNA of Bax and Bcl-2, and Caspase-3 activation of cells were upregulated compared to the control group. However, edaravone stimulated cell proliferation, SOD activity and protein and mRNA of Bcl-2 and lowered content of malondialdehyde, level of ROS, rate of apoptosis, express of Bax protein and mRNA and Caspase-3 activation of cell(P<0. 05). Conclusion Edaravone can alleviate rat renal tubular epithelial cell injury induced by cisplatin, via inhibiting oxidative stress and down-regulating cell apoptosis.

Objective CRT has gained acceptance as a useful form of device therapy for patients with refractory congestive heart failure. Despite recent technical advances, some problem still remained unsolved. The study highlighted some of these issues and try to provide possible solutions. Methods Since February 1999, about 50 patients underwent CRT. The CS lead was implanted with PTCA wire for dislodgment of lead in 3 patients. Injury of CS was present in 5 patients. Elevation in left ventricular pacing threshold was found in 2 patients who received early CRT. Results The patients who implanted the CS lead with PTCA wire acquired satisfactory capture threshold without any complication. Pace makers were implanted successfully in all 5 patients with CS injury The CS leads were extracted successfully from the 2 patients with elevated ventricular pacing threstold. Conclusion Implantation of the CS lead is a main step in the operation of CRT and prompt management to its related problems can enhance the operation success rate.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of ropivacaine and bupivacaine in combined spinal epidural anesthesia in abdominal operation. Methods:Totally 86 abdominal operation patients with combined spinal epidural anesthesia were randomly divid-ed into group A and group B with 43 ones in each. Group A was with ropivacaine anesthesia, while group B was with levobupivacaine anesthesia. The anesthesia effect, hemodynamic changes at different time points and adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups. Results:The duration of sensory block in the two groups was not statistically different (P>0. 05), while the patients in group A had shorter motor nerve recovery time than those in group B (P<0. 05), and Bromege score of group A was significantly lower than that of group B (P<0. 05). After the onset of anesthesia block, all hemodynamic parameters (SBP, DBP and HR) in the two groups were lower than those before the anesthesia (P<0. 05), while at the end of anesthesia, the parameters showed no statistically significant difference from those before the anesthesia (P>0. 05). During the operation, the parameters at different time points in group A had no significant difference from those in group B (P>0. 05). The incidence of adverse drug reaction was not statistically significant between the two groups as well (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Ropivacaine and levobupivacaine show similar blocking effect on the sensory nerve with the same effects on hemodynamics and adverse reactions, however, the blocking effect of ropivacaine on motor nerve is weaker, which is more beneficial to the early exercise of the patients after operation.
