Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine 2008;17(11):1195-1197
Objective To explore the effective prognostic factors of patients with multiple traumas. Method During January 2003 to March 2007, totally 324 patients with multiple traumas were treated in the emergency department of Renmin Hospital, Wuhan University. The relationship between prognosis and age, visiting time after injury, injury severity score (ISS) ,main wounded part and shock degree was analyzed. The data were tested using ehi-square test and logistic regression method. Results Seventy-eight patients died and 246 patients survived, the total mortality was 24.1%. Statistical differences existed in mortalities of patients with different visiting time (visiting hospital within 1 h,16.7%; visiting hospital beyond 1h, 37.4%),ISS (16≤ISS≤24, 5.7%; 25≤ISS≤40, 19.2%; IS8>40, 41.3%) and shock degree (non-shock, 11.8%; mild shock, 13.6%; moderate shock,27.7%; severe shock,46.9% ) ( P<0.01). There were no significant difference in mortalities among patients with different age (<18, 23.8% ; 18~38, 21.7% ; 38~58, 24.2% ;>58, 32.5% ) and with various main wounded part (head, 26.0%; neck, 25.3%; chest, 27.3%; abdomen, 24.1%; limbs, spine and pelvis,16.3%), P>0.05. Logistic regression study showed that mortality increased with postponed visiting time after injury, augment of ISS and aggravation of shock degree, with the exception that there was no differenoe in mortality of patients with between non-shock and mild shock. Conclusions Visiting time after injury, ISS and shock degree were valuable progrostic predictors for multiple traumas. It's vital to follow principle of damage controlled surgery and emphasis on the timeliness and integrity of medical rescue and control shock actively to reduce mortality of patients with multiple injuries.

A metabonomics method based on gas chromatography_mass spectrometry ( GC_MS) was developed for detecting the significant differences of root exudates of the Cd hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii under different treatments and study the effect mechanism of S. alfredii tolerating or accumulating the heavy metal Cd. The root exudates were collected after treatment for 4 and 8 days with 0 and 40μmol/L Cd. The collected solution was lyophilized and dissolved with methanol, and after derivatization with methoxyamine hydrochloride and N_methyl_N_trifluoroacetamide, the samples were analyzed by GC_MS. Principal component analysis ( PCA) and orthogonal partial least_squares discrimination analysis ( OPLS_DA) were carried out for pattern recognition and a clear separation among the different treatments was achieved. Twelve compounds which caused the separation among the different treatments were found and identified. With the change of treatments, the relative amount of these 12 compounds revealed different trends, which indicated that the Cd hyperaccumulator S. alfredii could adjust the secretion of root exudates to tolerate or accumulate the heavy metal Cd.

Objective To detect the mouse testicular gene expression pattern differences be-tween spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) proliferative and differential stages and study the molecular reg-ulation mechanism in SSC proliferation and differentiation. Methods With the interval of 24 days, male Kunming mice were injected intraperitoneally with two doses of busulfan (10 mg/kg) to establish spermatogenesis regeneration models. 36 k Mouse Genome Array was used to detect the differential gene expression profiles between the stages of SSC proliferation and differentiation. Bioinforrnsties analysis was conducted in GO (gene ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Ge-nomes) pathway to describe the potential roles that may play in spermatogonial stern cells behavior regulation. Results Nine hundred and eleven differential expression genes were identified by gene arrays in mice testes, consisting of 608 up-regulated and 303 down-regulated in SSC proliferation stage and SSC differentiation stage. The differential expression genes were classified by their biological process, molecular function and cellular component, respectively. Alterations with statistical signifi-cance (P<0.05)appeared in 84 KEG(;signal pathways, including Notch and Wnt signaling pathways which had been proved to be important for stem cell maintenance. Fifty-six differential expression genes were selected as genes related to stem cells, among which 40 genes were up-regulated, including some stem cell biomarkers(such as Cd9, StraS, hgbl-, Oct4 and Thyl)and some growth factors(such as Fgf2, Pdgfa and Csfl). Conclustion The regulation of SSC proliferation and differentiation involves inmany differentially expressed genes in various signal pathways. This study provides a molecular basis for the elucidation of the molecular mechanism behind self-renewal and differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells.

Objective To explore the underlying clinical factors and precautionary measures of fluid extravasation in patients with calyceal calculi treated by ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy.Methods A retrospective review was made on clinical records of 138 patients with calyceal calculi receiving retrograde ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy from May 2005 to March 2009. The relevance was studied between the occurance of fluid extravasation complications and various clinical factors using x2 test and binary Logistic regression. The clinical factors included patients' sexes, age groups (<30 years, 30-50 years, >50 years), history of treatment (ESWL or open surgery) for upper urinary tract calculi, preoperative upper urinary tract infection, intraoperative placement of ureteral catheter and the length of procedure duration (< 50 min, 50-80 min, > 80 min). Results Fluid extravasation complications occurred in 24 patients. The sexes and age groups were irrelevant to the occurance of fluid extravasation complications; while history of ESWL or open surgery and preoperative infection in upper urinary tract, without intraoperative ureteral catheter placement and long duration of procedure were responsible for the higher rates of the fluid extravasation complications.Conclusion Reasonable selection of patients and timing of operation, regular intraoperative ureteral catheter placement and control the length of procedure duration help to reduce fluid extravasation during retrograde ureteroscopic lithotripsy.

A 47-year-old man presented with recurrent oral ulcerations for more than 1 year and generalized vesicles for 9 months.Physical examination revealed multiple oral ulcers,patchy labial erosions with yellow or dark brown crusts,maceration and blanching of the angle of mouth resulting in difficulty in mouth opening.Cinnamomeous crusts were seen on the nasal limen,palpebral margin and coronary sulcus of penis,with pale red macules after decrustation.Diffuse erythematous patches and bullae were present on the trunk and extremities.The walls of bullae tightly clung to the skin,and some bullae were ruptured,leaving an erythematous and moist surface and giving an erythema multiforme-like appearance; some bullae were turbid and covered with adherent drugcontaining white crusts or black crusts.Nikolsky's sign was negative.Shrinking,edematous dark-red patches were seen in periungual regions of all the fingers and toes.Histologic biopsy and direct immunofluorescence examination of bullous lesions confirmed a diagnosis of paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP).Histopathological and immunohistochemical findings from the mediastinal tumor were consistent with Castleman's disease (hyalinevascular type) with proliferation of follicular dendritic cells.Laboratory examination revealed a decrease in serum complement C3 and the presence of antinuclear,anti-nucleosome and anti-dsDNA antibodies.The final diagnosis included Castleman's disease,PNP and systemic lupus erythematosus.After 2 months of treatment with low-dose prednisone and azathioprine,skin lesions completely regressed.Then,the dose of prednisone and azathioprine was tapered.Six months later,the patient himself suddenly withdrew prednisone and azathioprine,and began to take traditional Chinese medicine; thereafter,the lesions developed into toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN),and the patient died finally.This case demonstrates that immunosuppressive therapy should be maintained for a long period of time in patients with Castleman's disease after tumor removal,otherwise,skin lesions may recur or get worse.
