BACKGROUND: It has confirmed that angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor benazepril can delay fibrosis of varied organs. However, whether benazepril has inhabited effect on peritoneal fibrosis in the process of peritoneal dialysis is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: It is assumed that benazepril could inhabit peritoneal fibrosis of peritoneum with peritoneal dialysis, in addition, to compare the effect to other mehods. METHODS: All rats were randomly and evenly divided into 4 groups. There was no intervention in the control group; saline solution, and 20 mL 42.5 g/L Dianeal solution, was injected into rats in the saline solution and peritoneal dialysis groups; in the combination group, 20 mL 42.5 g/L Dianeal solution was injected combined with oral taken benazepril 20 mg/(kg·d). The intraperitoneal injection performed once a day, for 4 successive weeks. The ultrafiltration function was performed 4 weeks later. Meantime, Paraffin sections were cut and stained by Van Gieson to measure peritoneal thickness. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Two rats in the peritoneal dialysis group and 1 rat in the combination group were dead. The remained 37 rats were included in the final analysis. Compared to the control and saline solution groups, the ultrafiltration volume of the peritoneal dialysis and combination groups were obviously decreased (P_(all)< 0.05), especially notably decreased in the combination group (P< 0.05). Compared to the control group end saline solution groups, the peritoneal thickness was significantly elevated in the combination group, but not as much as in the peritoneal dialysis group (P < 0.05). In the long-term peritoneal dialysis rats, administration of benazepril can effectively protect the ultrofiltration function of peritoneum and delay the progression of peritoneal fibrosis.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the preservation of the structure and function of the trachea and larynx, the management of laryngotracheal defect when trachea and larynx was involved.
METHOD:
To review the management and clinical results of 13 cases of thyroid papillary carcinoma with larynx and trachea involvement, the preservation of laryngotracheal structure and relative defect reconstruction of our department from 2007-2014. Those patients being performed total laryngectomy was excluded. 3 males and 10 females, aged from 46 to 67 years old with median age of 53 were included. Among them 8 cases were recurrent. The extent of the tumor foci was estimated with the help of computed tomography and laryngofiberoscope before surgery. Selective neck dissection, total thyroidectomy and related laryngotracheal resection was performed for the first time operation patient, while selective neck dissection, recurrent foci and related larynx and trachea resection was performed for those recurrent patients. Three kinds of modalities were applied to manage the laryngotracheal defect including to reconstruct with pedicled sternocleidomastoid clavicular periosteocutaneous flap, pedicled trapizius muscular flap and to preserve the remaining larynx and trachea and perform a stoma of larynx and trachea which repaired by a second-stage procedure. The patients were followed-up from half an year to 3 years.
RESULT:
Ten patients out of 13 decannulated while another 3 cases, 2 of which were performed local flap to reduce the stoma, wore tracheal tubes all time.
CONCLUSION
Either flap transfer or laryngotracheal stoma before second stage repair might preserve partial laryngotacheal anatomy and function in selected cases thus improve the life quality of the patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in lung tissue of mice with acute paraquat poisoning, and discuss its pathological mechanism.Methods Fifty-eight healthy male mice were randomly divided into control group (n = 8) and poisoned group (n = 50). The mice in poisoned group were lavaged with 20% paraquat (50 mg/kg), and those in control group with equal amount of normal saline. The mice were sacrificed on the day of experiment in control group, and those in poisoned group at 6 hours and 1, 3, 7, 14 days after poisoning. The lung tissue was harvested to observe the changes in pathology of lung with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. The positive expression of HO-1 was determined with immunohistochemistry, and the protein expression of HO-1 was determined with Western Blot. The contents of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malonaldehyde (MDA) were determined.Results The mice showed shortness of breath and signs of exhaustion 1 hour after poisoning, getting worse on 3-5 days, but returned to normal 14 days after poisoning. Under the light microscope, it showed that the control group had no significant pathological changes in lung tissue. One day after the ingestion, pulmonary alveolar structure disorder, obvious hemorrhage, edema and infiltration of inflammatory cells were found. At 3 days, the pathological changes in the lung tissue were more pronounced. They were less pronounced on 7 days, and inflammatory changes disappeared on 14th day, but alveolar structure disorder remained. Immunohistochemical test showed that HO-1 was seldom expressed in the lung tissue, and a little amount was expressed in the mucosal epithelial cells of the airway in control group. It was shown that inflammatory cell and endothelial were mainly distributed in the mucosal epithelial cells of airway 1 day after poisoning followed by a gradually decrease tendence, and came to normal level of control group 7 days after poisoning. It was shown by Western Blot that HO-1 (gray value) in lung tissue increased 6 hours after poisoning (2.438±0.467 vs. 0.475±0.167,P< 0.01), peaked at 1 day (9.200±0.940 vs. 0.475±0.167,P< 0.01), continued to increase till 7 days after poisoning, and it lowered to normal level thereafter (0.825±0.260 vs. 0.475±0.167,P> 0.05). The SOD activity (μU/L) in lung tissue was lowered 6 hours after poisoning, and it was significantly lower than that of control group (649.681±13.951 vs. 1 167.051±15.744,P< 0.01), and it continued to decrease up to 14 days after poisoning (859.733±121.079 vs. 1 167.051±14.744,P< 0.01). MDA content (μmol/L) in the lung tissue homogenate was elevated 6 hours after poisoning with significant difference compared with that of the control group (4.542±0.266 vs. 3.705±0.176,P< 0.01). It peaked on day 1 (5.956±0.281 vs. 3.705±0.176,P< 0.01), then it declined and reached normal level 3 days after poisoning (4.134±0.168 vs. 3.705±0.176,P> 0.05).Conclusion HO-1 expression was increased significantly in lung tissue of mice with acute paraquat poisoning, which may be considered as an important protection mechanism against paraquat poisoning.
