Aim To explore the effect of adenylate cyclase(AC) antagonists SQ22536 and agonist forskolin on acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide.Methods ICR mice were randomly divided into normal saline control group(N group), model group(group L), dexamethasone group(group D),AC antagonists s(group SQ) and AC agonist group(group F).The ALI mouse model was induced by instilling intratracheally with LPS(2 mg·kg-1), and 6 h later, the lung tissue and alveolar lavage fluid(BALF) were harvested, pathological changes in lung were observed, white blood cell and neutrophil, albumin content in BALF and myeloperoxidase(MPO) activity of lung tissue homogenate were determined, and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β), interleukin 6(IL-6) and cAMP content in lung homogenates were detected by ELISA.Results Compared with normal saline group, a large number of neutrophils infiltrated around the pulmonary vessel and airway 6 h after LPS intratracheal instillation in model group.White blood cells and neutrophils and protein content increased in BALF;MPO activity and cAMP levels increased in lung tissues.In the lung tissue TNF-α and IL-6, IL-1β content increased, compared with model group.Forskolin could improve the pathological changes of lung tissue, reduce the total number of leukocytes, number of neutrophils and protein content in BALF, and reduce MPO activity and TNF-α content in lung tissue, at the same time it increased the cAMP content;SQ22536 had no significant effect when compared with model group.Conclusion AC agonists have protective effects on LPS-induced acute lung injury in mice, and the mechanism may be related to elevating cAMP levels, inhibiting neutrophil adhesion and chemotaxis and reducing inflammatory factor levels.

Objective To investigate the possibility and surgical effect of simultaneous tympanoplasty to chronic suppurative otitis media in the period of infection. Methods Forty-eight cases (48 ears) with chronic suppurative otitis media in the period of infection (31 with cholesteatoma, 17 with caries) were underwent simultaneous Wullstein Ⅱ and Ⅲ tympanoplasty on the complete elimination of the lesions (typical or modified mastoidectomy). Results All eases had dry ears within 4-10 weeks with average of 7 weeks. The air-bone gap within 10 dB was in 11 eases, 15 to 20 dB in 25 cases, 25 to 30 dB in 9 eases, no change or worse in 3 eases. Conclusions Infection is not the absolute eontraindication to the tympanoplasty in treating chronic suppurative otitis media, Wullstein Ⅲ tympanoplasty plus mastoid cavity obliteration and eonchaplasty is a suitable choice to treating chronic suppurative otitis media on the complete elimination of lesions and reconstruction of the ventilation system among mastoid cavity, tympanum and eustachian. The malfunction of eustachian is the main eanse to failure of surgery.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of CalliSpheres microsphere-transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (CSM-TACE) versus conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (cTACE) in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) through a meta-analysis. MethodsPubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP were searched for all Chinese and English articles on the application of CSM-TACE and cTACE in HCC published up to the end of October, 2020. After quality assessment was performed for the articles included, RevMan 5.3 software provided by Cochrane Library was used for analysis. ResultsA total of 15 studies were included, with 1535 patients in total. This meta-analysis showed that compared with the patients receiving cTACE, the patients receiving CSM-TACE had significantly higher 1-year overall survival rate (odds ratio [OR]=2.26, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.63-3.13, P<0.000 01), 2-year overall survival rate (OR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.20-2.50, P=0.003), and 2-year progression-free survival rate (OR=1.60, 95%CI: 1.05-2.43, P=0.03). In terms of safety, compared with the patients receiving cTACE, the patients receiving CSM-TACE had significantly lower incidence rates of postoperative vomiting (OR=0.65, 95%CI: 0.46-0.92, P=0.01), bone marrow suppression (OR=0.17, 95%CI: 0.05-0.54, P=0.003), and neutropenia (OR=0.18, 95%CI: 0.07-045, P=0.000 3), while there were no significant differences between the two groups of patients in postoperative pyrexia, abdominal pain, and ascites (all P>0.05). ConclusionCSM-TACE has significant advantages in improving 1- and 2-year overall survival rates and 2-year progression-free survival rates and can significantly reduce the incidence rates of postoperative vomiting, bone marrow suppression, and neutropenia. Therefore, CSM-TACE is a safe and effective treatment method.

Objective:
To explore the method of replanting severed piercing finger micro tissue blocks.
Methods:
From February, 2001 to October, 2016, 16 cases of severed piercing finger micro tissue blocks were replanted with debridement. The trunk or branch of proper palmar digital artery was anastomosed. Vascular collocations were used such as venous arterialization when there was no anastomotic artery available. Regular postoperative followed-up was performed to observe the recovery of tissue survival, appearance, sensation of flap, and joint function.
Results:
One case had partial epidermal necrosis, and healed after change of dressing. The finger-disconnected micro tissue blocks of other 15 cases survived well. After 6 months to 2 years of follow-up, the replanted micro tissue blocks were ruddy in color and recovered from S3 to S4. The appearance of the 16 fingers was good, and the function of joints was restored.
Conclusion
The finger-disconnected micro tissue blocks should be actively replanted. With skilled microsurgical techniques, the anastomosis of the arterial or venous artery will ensure the success of replantation and survived, as well as to restore good function and appearance.

This study aimed to investigate the neurotoxicity induced by trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and the possible protective mechanisms of boron (B). Mouse BV2 cells were treated with TCA (0, 0.39, 0.78, 1.56, 3.12, 6.25, or 12.5 mmol/L) and B (0, 7.8, 15.6, 31.25, 62.5, 125, 500, or 1,000 mmol/L) for 3 h and 24 h, respectively. Then, reactive oxygen species, and supernatant proinflammatory cytokine and protein levels were analyzed after 24 h of combined exposure. Beyond the dose-dependent decrease in the cellular viability, it clearly increased after B supplementation ( P < 0.05). Moreover, B decreased oxidative damage, and significantly down-regulated IL-6 levels and up-regulated TNF-β production ( P < 0.05). B also decreased apoptosis via the p53 pathway. The present findings indicated that TCA may induce oxidative damage, whereas B mitigates these adverse effects by decreasing cell apoptosis.
