OBJECTIVE:To investigate the prevention and treatment effect of Xiaochaihu decoction on irinotecan(CPT-11)-in-duced bloodystool in model mice with delayed diarrhea. METHODS:40 mice were randomly divided into normal control group (equal volume of normal saline),model control group(equal volume of normal saline),Xiaochaihu decoction group(1500 mg/kg, calculated by crude drug)and loperamide group(positive control,0.5333 mg/kg),ig,once a day,for 17 days. Except for normal control group,other groups were intraperitoneally injected CPT-11 to induce delayed diarrhea in 4th-10th day. Body mass changes, bloodystool rate of mice were determined,and pathological changes in large intestine and small intestine were observed. RE-SULTS:After 17 days of administration,compared with normal control group,the body mass in modeling groups was obviously declined (P<0.05),while body mass in Xiaochaihu decoction group was higher than model control group (P<0.05). In the 11th-17th day,bloodystool rate in Xiaochaihu decoction group and loperamide group were significantly lower than model control group(P<0.01),and bloodystool rate in Xiaochaihu decoction group was lower than loperamide group(P<0.05). Pathological re-sults showed,obvious diffuse necrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration were observed in mucosal epithelial cells of large intestine and small intestine in model control group,and the intestinal mucosal tissue in administration groups tended to be normal. CON-CLUSIONS:Xiaochaihu decoction can effectively reduce bloodystool rate,improve intestinal mucosa injury,and has prevention and treatment effect on CPT-11-induced bloodystool in mice,with superior effect to loperamide.

OBJECTIVE:To study the protective effect of sivelestat sodium on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model rats. METHODS:60 Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group (normal saline),model group (normal saline),positive drug group [prednisone acetate tablets 5 mg/(kg·d)] and sivelestat sodium low-dose,middle-dose and high-dose groups [5,8,10 mg/(kg·d)] with 10 rats in each group. Except for normal control group,other groups were given guin-ea pig spinal cord homogenate as antigen to produce EAE model,and then given relevant medicine ip since the same day of model-ing,for consecutive 16 d. The neurologic function of mice was scored,and pathological changes of brain and spinal cord were ob-served;the content of IFN-γ,IL-4,CCL3,chemotactic factor CCL5 regulating and activating normal T cell expression and secre-tion were determined. RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,neurological function score and the content of IFN-γ, CCL5 and CCL3 increased,while IL-4 content decreased (P<0.01);myelinoclasis and inflammatory cell infiltration occurred. Compared with model group,neurological function score and the content of CCL3 and CCL5 decreased in positive drug group and sivelestat sodium low-concentration,medium-concentration and high-concentration groups (P<0.01);both myelinoclasis and in-flammatory cell infiltration relieved;the content of IFN-γdecreased,while IL-4 content increased in positive drug group and sivele-stat sodium high-concentration group;IL-4 content increased in sivelestat sodium medium-concentration group (P<0.01);there was no statistical significance in other groups(P>0.05). Above effect depended on drug dose. CONCLUSIONS:Sivelestat sodium can relieve myelinoclasis and inflammatory cell infiltration,and the mechanism may be related to the decrease of IFN-γ content, the increase of IL-4 content,and inhibition of CCL3 and CCL5 expression in peripheral blood.

Objective To evaluate the endoscopic managements of acute cholangitis of severe type (ACST) accompanied with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Methods A total of 122 ACST patients accompanied with MODS from January 2000 to October 2008 underwent endoscopic treatment in two time periods. In critical phase, emergent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) plus en-doscopic naso-biliary drainage (ENBD) were performed to correct critical situation of the patients. After sta-bilization, endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) plus stone removal, EST plus stent placement, or laparoscopy was performed according to the causes of ACST. Results Emergent endoscopic managements succeeded in all patients of critical phase. At third day post-operation, a reduction in white blood cell count, serum total bilirubin, body temperature, and rate of patients with shock, mental symptoms and purulent bile juice was a-chieved. Recovery rate of dysfunction organs was 60.2% at one week after emergent procedure, and 82. 6% at 2 weeks post-operation. Selective EST plus stone removal was performed in 36 patients with a success rate n one session at 91.7%. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in 85 patients with a success rate of 95.3%. Stent was placed in 16 patients with an effective rate of 81.3% at 3 months post the procedure. No severe complication or death occurred during the whole therapeutic course. The 6-month survival rate of 10 cancer cases was 70%. Conclusion Therapeutic ERCP plus ENBD is the first choice for acute severe cholangitis accompanied with MODS, while EST plus biliary lithotomy, or EST plus stent placement, or com-bined laparoscopy are ideal methods for subsequent treatment.
