CIR models were established by clamping both carotid arteries in mice for 30 min,and then, untying clamps. 0.20 MPa HBO was applied once a day for 10 days after establishment of models in HBO group,but not in the control and SO groups. Following sacrifice after treatment and acquirement of cortex and hippocamal tissues, HE stain and immunohistochemistry technique were used to observe the changes of neuron structure and expression of BDNF. Results The neural degeneration and necrosis in cortex and hippocampus (issues) were observed under light microscope after CIR, and the amount of abnormal cells in the control group was more than that in HBO group (P

Objective To study the value of oxygen treatment on elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods From April 2010 to March 2012,a total of 140 cases of elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke for oxygen therapy combined with drug and rehabilitation were divided into two groups,outside high-flow oxygen group of 71 cases,hyperbaric oxygen group of 69 cases.The neurological functional defects scale was used to evaluate the effect.Two groups of patients were given conventional drug therapy including improving the microcirculation,vegetative neural drugs,and rehabilitation treatment.Results The total effectiveness respectively was 98.6％ (70/71),91.3％ (63/69),and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,the nerve function damage grades of two groups respectively was (10.4 ± 1.7),(15.6 ± 1.8) scores,and there was significant difference compared with that before treatment [(28.2 ± 2.5),(28.7 ± 2.6) scores] (P ＜ 0.05).There was significant difference in treatment adherence between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion For patients of elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke,oxygen therapy is necessary,while outside high-flow oxygen therapy is better than hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of preoperative regional intra-arterial chemotherapy (RIAC) in the treatment of resectable pancreatic head carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 50 patients with resectable pancreatic head carcinoma who had been admitted to the Research Institute of Pancreatic Diseases of Fudan University from December 2006 to July 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were randomly divided into2 groups (n =25 in each group): patients in group A were treated with preoperative RIAC followed by regional pancreaticoduodenectomy, and patients in group B were treated with surgical procedure routinely. The lymphatic metastases in the 50 specimens of pancreatic head carcinoma were detected by histological examination with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, and lymphatic micrometastases were detected by immunohistochemical method with staining of cytokeratin AE1/AE3 in 10 specimens with negative HE staining of the lymph nodes in each group. Results There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications, the length of hospital stay and the 1-, 2-year survival rates between the 2 groups (χ2 = 0.12, 2.88, P > 0.05). The incidence of positive lymph node metastasis in group A was 7.1% (52/734), which was significantly higher than 22.1% (118/532) in group B (χ2 = 60.01, P < 0.05). The incidence of lymphatic micrometastasis was 9.4% (30/319) in group A, and 9.1% (23/252) in group B, with no statistical difference between the 2 groups (χ2= 0.01, P > 0.05). Conclusions Preoperative RIAC is helpful in improving the prognosis of patients with resectable pancreatic head carcinoma by reducing the incidence of lymphatic metastasis and decreasing tumor stage.

Objective To observe the efficacy, benefits and shortcomings of pressurized air therapy for neo- natal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Methods One hundred and nine neonates with HIE were treated with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) with a continuing oxygen supplement from an improved oxygen mask plus a 2.5-1itre breathing sacculus proprius in a large air-pressurized oxygen chamber. Among them there were 70 cases treated with 3-6 courses of HBO + drug therapy, 39 cases treated with a single session of HBO + drug therapy, and 32 treated with drug therapy alone. Motor development was assessed using the Chinese infantile intelligence development test scale at the ages of 3, 6 and 12 months. Results The sequential HBO + drug group achieved significantly better average motor development than the single session group or the drug only group. There was mo significant difference between the single treatment group and the drug only group. The proportion of abnormal CT results 12 months after treatment was significantly higher in the drug only group than in the sequential HBO + drug group. Conclusion Sequential HBO + drugs therapy with the improved oxygen mask is preferable to a single session of HBO + drug treatment or drug therapy alone.
