ObjectiveTo observe the treatment effect of seveve acute pancreatitis (SAP) with gabexate combined with Xuebijing after local infusion. MethodsForty-four patients with SAP were randomly divided into receiving intravenous gabexate or Xuebijing alone (control group) group and receiving local infusion with gabexate combined with Xuebijing( experimental group) group. At 1,7,14 days of testing in diamine oxidase (DAO), lipopolysaccharide, IL-18, TNF-α, APACHE- Ⅱ score, T lymphocyte subpopulation and monocyte HLA-DR expression and single change in the number of nuclear cells were tested. ResultsBetween two patients groups at 1,7,14 days diamine oxidase, lipopolysaccharide, IL-18, TNF-α, APACHE-Ⅱ score showed a downward trend; T suppressor cells (Ts) reduced in their percentage; total T lymphocytes, T helper cell (Th), monocyte HLA-DR expression (percentage) and mononuclear cells showed an upward trend in the experimental group than control group, the differences being statistically significant (P < 0.05). In the experimental group and control group, the pain relief time, intestinal function recovery time, the withdrawal of ventilator time, the incidence of sepsis, the rate of conversion to open surgery were statistically significant different (P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Compared with intravenous drug use alone the implementation of gabexate combined with Xuebijing local infusion can reduce the early course of SAP patients intestinal permeability and reduce endotoxin translocation, protect intestinal barrier function of patients with SAP, improve the patients' immune function, symptoms, signs and reduce the rate of sepsis and transit operations.

Objective To investigate the effects of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on tumor growth and tumor angiogenesis factor relevant to Janus kinase 2-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 of human gastric carcinoma xenografts in nude mice with different expressions of growth hormone receptor (GHR).Methods Immunocytochemical method was used to pick out one GHR-positive and one GHR-negative cell line. The cells were subcutaneously injected into 26 nude mice separately, then the patterns of xenografts in nude mice with different expressions of GHR were established. The nude mice bearing two different kinds of human gastric caicinoma were equally randomized into control group, low-dose rhGH group, and high-dose rhGH group,and were treated with drugs for 14 days. Changes of tumor volumes and body weight of nude mice were record. The protein and mRN A expressions of tumor angiogenesis factor in tumor tissue were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. Results GHR was highly expressed in SGC-7901 celk but negative in MKN-45 cells. For nude mice bearing GHR+ SGC-7901 xenografts, the tumor volumes were significantly larger in low-dose rhGH group [(1. 141 ±0. 234) cm3] and high-dose rhGH group [(2. 106 ±0. 260) cm3] than in control group [(0.612±0. 156) cm3] (P = 0. 034, P = 0. 001), and the high-dose rhGH group revealed greater effect (P =0. 043 ). Body weight was not significantly different among three groups. Compared with the control group, the mRNA expressions of tumor angiogenesis factor were significantly increased in low-does rhGH group, and the P values of GHR, Janus kinase 2, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), fibroblast growth factor, and matrix metalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2) was 0.001, 0.011, 0.042, 0.045, 0.040, 0.002, and 0.003, respectively; however, the high-does rhGH group did not show the greater effects. The protein expressions were significantly increased in low-does rhGH group, and the P value of phosphorylation-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, VEGF, HIF-1α, and MMP-2 was 0. 015, 0.003, 0.010, 0.008,and 0. 005, respectively; furthermore, the high-does group revealed the further greater effects, and the P value of VEGF, HIF-1α, and MMP-2 was 0.012, 0.025, and 0.046, respectively. On the contrary, for nude mice bearing GHR- MKN-45 xenografts, the body weights of low-dose rhGH group [(24.94 ±0. 517) g] and high-dose rhGH group [(26.97 ±0.686) g] were significantly higher than that of control group [(22.78 ±0.418) g] (P =0. 040, P = 0.012 ) , while tumor growth as well as the expressions of mRNA and protein of tumor angiogenesis factor in tumor tissue were not significantly different Conclusions rhGH can promote tumor growth and up-regulate the expression of tumor angiogenesis factor in the GHR-highly-expressed SGC-7901 xenograft tumor model; However,such effects do not exist in GHR-negatively-expressed MKN-45 xenograft tumor model. The existence of GHR may be a key target by which rhGH influences the tumor growth and the expressions of tumor angiogenesis factor, which is probably achieved through Janus kinase 2-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 activation.

Objective To sum up the experience on the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal compartment syndrome(ACS). Methods In this report, ACS was diagnosed by special clinical features in all 5 patients. Following emergency decompressive celiotomy, the abdominal viscera were covered with a 3 L sterile plastic bag for nutrition support. Results The first case died despite abdominal decompression through uper midline incision. 4 cases underwent decompressive celiotomy through incision from xiphoid to symphysis, one died postoperatively. The overall mortality in this series was 40% (2 / 5). Conclusions Close attention paid to the abdominal and systemic signs facilitates the diagnosis of ACS.Emergent decompressive celiotomy through a incision from xiphoid to symphysis is effective in treating ACS. Temporary abdominal closure could be fulfiled with 3L sterile plastic bag for nutrition support.

Objective To investigate the value of CT in the diagnosis of dedifferentiated liposarcoma.Methods Fifteen surgical operations of dedifferentiated liposarcoma in 11 patients, confirmed by pathology, underwent plain (n=15) and contrast enhanced (n=12) CT scans. Two of the 12 lesions underwent dynamic multi-phase contrast scans. The CT features and the corresponding pathological basis were analyzed.Results The lesions were divided into 3 groups according to the fatty component and its distribution. The CT appearances were as follows: (1)a well delineated fatty component in the lesion and a closely apposed non-fatty region in 10 cases including 5 initial (5/5, 100%) and 5 recurrent (5/10, 50%), which depicted an abrupt transition from the well-differentiated area to the high-grade sarcoma component under microscope; (2)fatty component within the lesion was less than 10% in 3 recurrent (3/10, 30%); (3)fatty masses and non-fatty masses separately distributed in 2 recurrent cases (2/10, 20%). Contrast enhanced CT scan showed moderate to marked inhomogeneous enhancement in the early phase in all 12 lesions, and delay enhancement was also observed.Conclusion Dedifferentiated liposarcoma exhibited specific appearances as well delineated fatty component and closely apposed non-fatty region with apparent enhancement. Dynamic contrast CT scans play important roles in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of dedifferentiated liposarcoma, and help pre-surgical grading and pathological sampling.
