Objective To observe the effect of prostaglandin E1 on soluble interleukin-6 receptor(SIL-6R) and soluble interleukin-6 receptor β strands (sgp 130) in serum in patients with chronic severe hepatitis.Methods Sixteen patients with chronic severe hepatitis accepted therapy with prostaglandin E1.Serum levels of SIL-6R and sgp130 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method before and after therapy.Results The content of SIL-6R and sgp 130 in serum were increased significantly (P<0.001) in patients with chronic severe hepatitis compared with normal control group and decreased obviously (P<0.01) after therapy with prostaglandin E1 compared with before therapy,and the rate of delth were decreased obviously (P<0.01) in PGE1 therapy group.Conclusion The levels of SIL-6R and sgp130 in serum can reflect the degree of liver damage in patients with chronic severe hepatitis and guide the assessment of prognosis;PGE1 can correct the immune disorder,attenuating hepatocyte inflammation and necrosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility of extended hepatectomy for huge hepatic carcinoma.MethodsA retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 28 patients with huge hepatic carcinoma who underwent extended hepatectomy from December 2006 to June 2011.Twenty-two cases were Child-Pugh grade A,6 cases were Child-Pugh grade B,19 cases were indocyanine green retention at 15 minutes (ICGR15)≤10%,5 cases were 10% < ICGR15 ≤15%,4 cases were 15% < ICGR15 ≤20%.ResultsThe operative death rate was 7.1% (2/28) with Child-Pugh grade B,15% < ICGR15 ≤20% and liver resection volume 60%-70%.Postoperative complications were found on 15 cases,but all recovered after treatment.ConclusionExtended hepatectomy for huge hepatic carcinoma can be feasible in the patients with enough reserve of the liver function provided.

Objective:To explore the early predictive value of amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram(aEEG) combined with general movements(GMs)assessment for motor development outcomes in infants with severe hyperbilirubinemia at 12 months of age.Methods:The clinical data of 125 cases of neonates with severe hyperbilirubinaemia admitted to the NICU at Inner Mongolia Medical University Hospital from January 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The aEEG were performed within 24 h of admission;GMs assessment were carried out at the duration of hospital stay,when the serum bilirubin values decreased below phototherapy intervention value and the infant was stable. The patients were regularly followed-up until one-year-old to evaluate the predictive values by Griffiths Developmental Scale.Results:A total of 125 infants with severe hyperbilirubinemia were enrolled,including 82(65.6%)males and 73(58.4%)females,with the mean gestational age of(38.1±1.5)weeks,the mean birth weight of(3 169±573)g,and the mean serum bilirubin of(378.5±51.9)μmol/L. Of the 125 infants diagnosed by Griffiths assessment at the age of 12 months,normal in 86 cases(68.8%),and abnormal in 39 cases(31.2%). GMs writhing phase assessment had a sensitivity of 100%, negative predictive value of 100% and specificity of 19.77% in predicting motor developmental outcome in neonates with severe hyperbilirubinaemia. The aEEG had a sensitivity of 92.31% and a negative predictive value of 94.92% in predicting motor developmental outcome in neonates with severe hyperbilirubinaemia, with a higher specificity of 65.12%. The sensitivity and negative predictive value of aEEG+GMs assessment for predicting motor developmental outcome in neonates with severe hyperbilirubinaemia were 87.18% and 92.42%, respectively, with the highest specificity of 70.93%.Conclusion:GMs writhing stage assessment, aEEG assessment, and aEEG combined with GMs early assessment have good predictive value for motor developmental outcomes in neonates with severe hyperbilirubinaemia.The aEEG combined with GMs assessment has a high specificity, which can improve the predictive effect of motor developmental outcomes in neonates with hyperbilirubinaemia.
