Objective A large number of injured earthquake patients were accepted by the hospital whilethe professional surgeons were relatively lack. This article introduced the hospital emergency management in 2008Sichuan Wenchuan Earthquake, China. Method Within 3 days, Central Hospital of Mianyang accepted andtreated over 1000 patients after Wenchuan Earthquake jolted on 12 May 2008,and within 2 weeks, the number ofpatients reached 1500. The hospital carded out emergency management plan: (1) emergency comprehensive treat-ment district was established, which was divided into traumatic surgery district, general surgery district, and gen-eral medical district. Traumatic surgery district is responsible for treating traumatic patients, and most doctors andnurses were in this district. The district also had preview, contamination, operation, isolation, monitoring sec-tions, and the tents were numbered and labeled. General surgery district and general medical district were responsi-ble for patients not from earthquake, and only few doctors and nurses were in the two districts. According to the in-jury degree, all the wounded were classified into acute and severe, moderate and minor injuries, and wore red,yellow and blue label on the wrists, respectively. The name, gender, age and diagnosis of each patient and thename of doctor were written on the label. The infectious patients and non-infectious patients were separated.Results Near 200 operations and near 300 operations were performed at one night and at one day, respectively.Within one week, only 1 patient had the lung infection, and one patient with gangrenous emphysema was effective-ly treated. In-hospital cross infection and epidemic of infection disease didn't happen. Conclusions Emergencymanagement model and mechanism, which referred to the model of the battlefield ambulance, played an importantrole in treating a large number of injured patients.

Objective To investigate the clinicalmanifestations,imaging features,diagnosis and differential diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of renal malignant solitary fibrous tumor(SFT).Methods The clinical data in 1 case of rare renal malignant SFT were retrospectively analyzed.Referring to related literatures,the histological origin,pathological features,differential diagnosis,treatment and follow-up of renal malignant SFT were analyzed.Results The patient was preoperatively diagnosed as right renal clear cell carcinoma.Postoperative pathological examination diagnosed as low grade malignant SFT of right kidney.And immunohistochemistry indicated CD34+,BCL-2 +,CD68+,CD99+,vimentin,Ki-67 5% +,SMA focal weakly positive.No recurrence or metastasis occurred after 4-month follow-up period.Conclusion Malignant SFT of the kidney is very rare,its diagnosis and differential diagnosis depend on postoperative pathological and immunohistochemical examination.Radical nephrectomy is the main option for malignant SFT of the kidney with good prognosis.

Objective The bispectral index (BIS) was introduced into the sedation strategy of critical patients in intensive care unit (ICU) and replaced the Richmond agitation sedation scale (RASS).The ventilation time,ICU length of stay,and 90-day mortality were compared between the two groups of patients who performed early goal-directed sedation (EGDS) or standard traditional directed sedation (STDS) strategies.Methods A prospective controlled study of severe patients with mechanical ventilation ≥48 h in ICU (20 cases from April 2016 to May 2017,46 cases from June 2017 to April 2018) were randomly divided into EGDS or STDS group.There were no significant differences in age,gender,and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation score Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score between the two groups in the two periods.The correlation between RASS and BIS was analyzed in the first period.The BIS of the patients in a RASS range of (-2-1) was 73.65 ± 7.87 in the EGDS group,and that of RASS range of (-3--1) was 64.14 ± 7.25 in the STDS group.The above BIS was applied to the two sedation strategies in the second period respectively.The ventilation time,ICU length of stay,and 90-day mortality were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the ventilation time between the two groups [(164.12 ± 137.96) h and (155.33 ±64.86)h,P =0.08].ICU length of stay of the EGDS group was longer than that of the STDS group.The 90-day mortality of the EGDS group was higher than that of the STDS group.Conclusions Correlations between RASS and BIS were found in this study,and BIS can be used for sedation assessment in ICU patients.Large sample study is still needed to compare EGDS and STDS with BIS.

Objective To observe the expression of Protein Kinase C Delta (PKCδ) and NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in the liver of arsenic poisoning rats induced by coal-burning,and explore their roles.Methods According to body weight (80-100 g),thirty Wistar rats (half male half female) were divided into five groups of 6 each using random number table method,the control group,and drinking arsenic,low,medium and high arsenic contaminated grain groups.The control group was fed normally for 3 months;drinking arsenic,low,medium and high arsenic contaminated grain groups were fed respectively with 100 mg/L As2O3 solution and different concentrations of arsenic-containing feed (25,50 and 100 mg/kg).At the end of the experiment period,non-anticoagulant whole blood 2 ml from peripheral vein was collected.Malondialdehyde (MDA) contents,activities of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were detected.After sacrificing the animals,the liver was separated and then diacylglycerol (DAG) contents,mRNA and protein expressions of PKCδ and Nrf2 were determined,and the correlation was analyzed by Pearson.Results There were significant differences in serum MDA contents,SOD1 and GPx activities among groups (F =26.441,3.327,120.645,P < 0.05).The serum MDA contents in arsenic-exposed groups were higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05).However,activities of SOD1 and GPx1 were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).There were significant differences in liver DAG contents,Nrf2 mRNA expression levels among groups (F =8.237,8.656,P < 0.05).DAG contents in the liver tissues of the drinking arsenic,low,medium and high arsenic contaminated grain groups were respectively (2.67 ± 0.25),(2.36 ± 0.19),(2.54 ± 0.22) and (2.69 ± 0.32) μg/L,which were significantly higher than that in the control group [(2.05 ± 0.24) μg/L,P < 0.05].The expression levels of Nrf2 mRNA in liver tissue were respectively 1.16 ± 0.09,1.09 ± 1.20,1.14 ± 0.15 and 1.27 ± 0.16,which were higher than that in the control group (0.94 ± 0.08,P < 0.05).There were significant differences in the expression of pPKCδ protein in the cell membrane and cytoplasm of liver tissue between groups (F =15.925,6.699,P < 0.05).The protein expression levels of pPKCδ in the cell membrane of liver tissue were 0.49 ± 0.06,0.33 ± 0.05,0.37 ± 0.06 and 0.50 ± 0.08,respectively,which were significantly higher than that in the control group (0.28 ± 0.04,P < 0.05).The protein expression levels of pPKCδ in the cytoplasm were 0.38 ± 0.06,0.31 ± 0.05,0.35 ± 0.05 and 0.36 ± 0.05,respectively,which were higher than that in the control group (0.24 ± 0.05,P < 0.05).There were significant differences in the expression of Nrf2 and pNrf2 in cytoplasm and nucleus of liver tissues among groups (F =9.024,9.709,10.396,25.532,P < 0.05).The protein expression levels of Nrf2 in the cytoplasm were respectively 0.76 ± 0.09,0.58 ± 0.07,0.64 ± 0.09 and 0.73 ± 0.07,which were higher than that of the control group (0.52 ± 0.08,P < 0.05),except the low arsenic contaminated grain group.The protein expression levels of pNrf2 in the cytoplasm were respectively 0.50 ± 0.07,0.43 ± 0.06,0.48 ± 0.06 and 0.54 ± 0.07,which were higher than that in the control group (0.32 ± 0.06,P < 0.05).The expression levels of Nrf2 protein in the nucleus were respectively 0.44 ± 0.07,0.41 ± 0.06,0.47 ± 0.06 and 0.54 ± 0.09,which were higher than that in the control group (0.30 ± 0.05,P < 0.05).The protein expression levels of pNrf2 in the nucleus were respectively 0.35 ± 0.04,0.29 ± 0.04,0.41 ± 0.05 and 0.43 ± 0.06,which were higher than that in the control group (0.20 ± 0.03,P < 0.05).The correlation analysis showed that DAG contents and the protein expression of pPKCδ in the cell membrane and the cytoplasm were positively correlated (r =0.663,0.604,P < 0.05).Furthermore,the protein expression of pPKCδ in the cell membrane and pNrf2 in the cytoplasm and nucleus were also positively correlated (r =0.642,0.670,P< 0.05).Conclusions Arsenic could induce oxidative stress liver injury,and upregulate the mRNA and protein expression of Nrf2.Moreover,arsenic could also increase the protein expression of pPKCδ and DAG content,and then promote pPKCδ membrane transposition,phosphorylate Nrf2,and induce its nuclear transposition,which could regulate oxidative stress reaction.
