Objective To explore the clinical effect of two different connecting tubes in hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion. Methods A total of 25 patients were selected and divided into observation group and control group by self- control method. In the observation group, the hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion was used 8 times, and the control group was treated with hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion 8 times using conventional connecting tube. The time of the unloading of the perfusate and the amount of physiological saline required were compared between the two groups. There was no blood spillover during the unloading of the perfusate, the number of cases of allergic reaction during the treatment, and the coagulation of the dialyzer and the pipeline after the treatment. Results There was no allergic reaction in both groups. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the amount of saline needed to return blood (t=46.412, P=0.307). In the control group, there was 15 cases of blood spillover, while the observation group did not show blood spillover. There was significant difference between the two groups in unloading perfusion time(4.43±0.14)min vs. (3.02±0.11) min (t=10.784, P=0.003). The level Ⅰ and Ⅱ blood coagulation of dialyzer and pipeline was 12, 2 cases in the control group after the treatment and 5, 0 case in the observation group, no level Ⅲ blood coagulation cases, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (χ2=10.667, P<0.01). Conclusion In the hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion therapy, multi-function group of the application effect is superior to conventional piping, is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To collect the imaging data and related materials of the patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR)after coronary artery stent operation with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS),and to analyze the risk factors of ISR,and to propose the reasonable intervention strategies.Methods:Fifty patients with ISR were divided into ISR ≤ 50% drug group (n = 14 )and ISR > 50% drug group (n = 36),including drug-coated balloon therapy group (n=16)and stent treatment group (n=20);IVUS virtual organization technology was used to compare the plaque area,location,tissue composition,thrombus and other factors of the patients in various groups after treatment;the data changes after 6 months of follow-up were analyzed.Results:The IVUS results showed the plaque areas and plaque loads of the ISR patients treated with intervention were significantly reduced compared with before operation (P <0.05);the plaque compression degree of the patients in drug-coated balloon therapy group was lower than that in stent treatment group (P <0.05),but the differences were not found between drug-coated balloon therapy group and stent treatment group in fibrous tissue components and calcified tissue proportion (P >0.05).Conclusion:The ISR rate is higher in the patients with high degree of fiber components,plaque composition heterogeneity and distribution of diffuse tortuous and calcified lesions.ISR has no significant correlation with the plaque wall thickness and lipid content and plaque instability and necrotic tissue proportion.

Objective To evaluate the effect of injection of ozone (O3) through lateral recess for the treatment of radiculitis caused by lumbar disc herniation on the blood glucose in patients with diabetes mellitus.Methods Ninety-six patients with radiculitis caused by lumbar disc herniation involving 48 patients with diabetes mellitus and 48 patients without diabetes mellitus were enrolled in the study.The diabetic or non-diabetic patients were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n =24 each):non-diabetic patients-O3 group (group N-O3 ),non-diabetic patients-ghcocorticoid group (group N-GC),diabetic patients-O3 group (group D-O3 ),and diabetic patients-glucocorticoid group (group D-GC).In N-O3 and D-O3 groups,30 mg/L O3 10 ml was injected via the lateral recess.In N-GC and D-GC groups,compound betamethasone injection 3.5 mg was injected via the lateral recess.The blood glucose level was measured before treatment (T1),1 and 4 h after treatment (T3,4),and 1,3 and 7 days after treatment (T5-7).VAS score was recorded at T1,immediately after treatment (T2),and at T5-7.The patients' quality of life was measured using the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (MOS SF-36 Health Survey) questionnaire at T1,7.The therapeutic effect was evaluated at T7.The side effects were recorded.Results Compared with the baseline value at T1,VAS scores were significantly decreased after treatment,while the MOS SF-36 Health Survey questionnaire scores for physical functioning,bodily pain,role emotional,and mental health in all groups,for general health in group N-GC,and for vitality in groups D-O3 and N-O3 were significantly increased at T7,and the blood glucose level was significantly increased at T4 in groups N-GC and D-O3,and at T3-7 in group D-GC ( P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant change in the blood glucose level before and after treatment in group N-O3.The blood glucose level was significantly higher in group N-GC than in group N-O3,and in group D-GC than in group D-O3 ( P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the excellent and good rates and all the MOS SF-36 Health Survey questionnaire scores among all groups.No side effects were found in the study.Conclusion Injection of ozone through lateral recess for treatment of radiculitis caused by lumbar disc herniation exerts no influence on the blood glucose level in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effect of Resolvin D1 (RvD1) on radicular pain induced by herniated nucleus pulposusand its underlying mechanism.Methods Fifty-six male rats were randomly divided intoa sham group,a model group,a 10 ng group anda 100 ng group,each of 14.The rat model of non-compressive lumber disc herniation was established in all except the sham group.The former two groups were then injected with 10 μl of phosphate buffer solution (PBS) while the latter 2 groups were injected with 10 μl of PBS containing 10 and 100 ng of RvD1 respectively daily for three successive days.The rats' 50％ paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) was evaluated 1 day before and on 7 successive days after surgery.On day 7 the rats' spinal cords were removed to assess the expression of tumor necrosis factor-or (TNF-α),interlukin-1β (IL-1β) and interlukin-10 (IL-10) using ELISA methods.The levels of ERK and NF-κB/p65 were measured using Western blotting.Results Theaverage 50％PWT of the model group decreased significantly from day 1 to day 7 compared with the sham group,but was significantly lower thanthe RvD1 10 ng group from day 3 to day 7.Moreover the 50％PWT in the RvD1 100 ng group increased significantlyfrom day 2 to day 7 compared with the model group (P＜0.05).The average expression of both TNF-α and IL-1β of the model group was upregulated significantly and that of IL-10 decreased significantly compared with the sham group.Compared with the model group,the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β decreased significantly (P＜0.05)and the level of IL-10 was significantlyup-regulated (P＜0.05) both in the RvD1 10 ng group and 100 ng group.Moreover,the changes were larger in the RvD1 100 ng group (P＜0.05).Compared with the sham group,the levels of p-ERK and NF-κB/p65 in the model group were significantly up-regulated (P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,intrathecal injection of RvD1 (10 ng or 100 ng) significantly decreased the expressions of p-ERK and NF-κB/p65 (P＜0.05).Moreover,the decrease wasgreater in the RvD1 100 ng group (P＜0.05).Conclusions RvD1 might alleviate the radicular inflammation and pain byregulating the balance of inflammatory mediators and activation of p-ERK and NF-κB/p65 pathways.It may offer novel therapeutic approaches for the management of lumbar disc herniation.
