Childhood hypertensive crisis is a relatively rare emergency event,and is associated with a high risk of morbidity and mortality.Children in this situation need rapid,safe and effective treatment to release clinical symptoms,relieve injuries of target organs,improve quality of life,and reduce mortality.Many kinds of anti-hypertension drugs have been used in children for decades,but most data were extrapolated from studies in adult.There is limited number of randomized controlled trials in children.Therefore it is still difficult to choose drugs for pediatric hypertensive crisis based on evidence-based medicine.This paper sought to summarize the experience of medical management of childhood hypertensive crisis in children.

This study was aimed to investigate the effects of Chai-Hu Shu-Gan Tang (CHSGT) on levels of TNF-α and 5-HT in lithium chloride–pilocarpine caused epilepsy–depression comorbidity rat model, in order to discuss the intervention effect of CHSGT on TNF-α and 5-HT in epilepsy–depression comorbidity. The lithium chloride–pilocarpine caused epilepsy–depression comorbidity rat model was established. After 6 weeks of animal establishment, rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, which were citalopram group (A), physiological saline group (B), CHSGT high dose group (C), medium dose group (D), and low dose group (E). Intragastric administration was given for 4 weeks, twice a day. Before and after the treatment, RT-PCR was performed to detect hippocampal TNF-αlevels. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was performed to detect hippocampal 5-HT levels. Both forced swimming test (FST) and saccharin preference test were carried out to monitor the depressive behaviors of rats. In the meantime, 24 hours a day video camera surveillance were performed to record the number of seizures of rats. The results showed that after treatment, the number of seizures of rats were significantly reduced, the accumulative immobility time in FST was shortened, and the consumption of sucrose increased significantly (P < 0.01) in group A, C and D. Compared with group B, after the treatment, the expressions of hippocampal TNF-α mRNA of rats in group A, C, D were distinctly downregulated, with the level of 5-HT significantly increased (P < 0.05,P < 0.01). Compared with group A, group C and D showed no significant changes. It was concluded that TNF-α played a role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy–depression comorbidity through mediating the level of 5-HT. High and medium doses of CHSGT can downregulate the expression of TNF-α mRNA in depression comorbidity of chronic temporal lobe epilepsy, increase 5-HT level, reduce the number of seizures of rats, and improve depressive behaviors.

BACKGROUND: There are few reports about vascularization in the repairing of bone defect by heterogeneous deproteinized bone.OBJECTIVE: To verify the vascularization characteristics of heterogeneous deproteinized bone, tissue engineering scaffold material, in the repairing of large segmental bone defect.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled animal experiment was performed between March 2005 and February 2007 at the Third Military Medical University, Chongqing, China.MATERIALS: Twenty-four 10 to 12 months old goats, weighing (22.5±2.5)kg, were obtained from the Animal Center of the Third Military Medical University, Chongqing, China. Segmental bone defects of 20 percent right tibia middle and inferior diaphysis of the 24 goats were made.METHODS: The 24 goats were divided into test group (n=16) and control group (n=8) randomly. Goats in test group were implanted with deproteinized bone+autologous MSCs+recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2), goats in control group were implanted with autograft bone, and all fixed with half-ring sulcated external fixator. Every 4 weeks, 3 goats were killed after ink perfusing through femoral artery. A thick slice of new bone tissue was made to observe the vascularization.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Vascularization of new bone observed through gross anatomy and imaging; vascular network of new bone observed through thick section, blood vessel amount and area measured by Image-proplus really image analysis software.RESULTS: No goat was infected or dead. Animal soft tissue was dyed black, blood vessels'size, ditribution and network structure were observed in subcutaneous tissue, fascia and periosteum. At 4 weeks postoperation implant margin became crude in the defect area; at 8 weeks postoperation transparent bone absorbing area of different size and irregular shape appeared; after 12 weeks postoperation high-dense calcification shadow appeared at the ends of defect bone and new bone connected with the ends completely. On 4 to 24 weeks postoperation, the blood vessel amount became large, alignment became regular, and their size and distribution became uniform. It showed no significant difference in blood vessel amount and area between 2 groups (P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Composite of heterogeneous deproteinized bone+autologous MSCs+rhBMP-2 has the same vascularization degree. of autogeneous bone graft in repairing of large segmental tibia defect.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute vasculitis that often occurs in children under 5 years of age, leading to coronary artery aneurysms.It is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children in many countries.Coronary artery stenosis, thrombosis, and even myocardial infarction may occur in the long-term course of KD, which seriously threaten the health of children.The etiology and pathogenesis of KD are complex, and it is recognized that KD is caused by the interaction of multiple factors like the heredity, immunity, inflammation, and environmental factors.Interleukin-1 plays an important role in the occurrence and progression of KD.This study mainly reviews the research progress of interleukin-1 and its receptor antagonist Anakinra in KD.

It is believed that the key pathogenesis of endometriosis combined with infertility is spleen and kidney yang deficiency and binding of dampness and stasis， for which the method of warming yang and removing turbidity is advocated， and self-made Wenyang Huazhuo Formula （温阳化浊方） is recommended with flexibility by stages in accordance with the rules of the changes of yin and yang in the menstrual cycle and the storing and drainage of uterus. Specifically， during the menstruation， it is suggested to warm channels and invigorate blood， drain dampness and remove dampness； during the late menstruation， the method of warming yang and replenishing yin， regulating and supplementing the chong mai （冲脉） and ren mai （任脉）； for inter-menstruation period， it is advised to warm yang and replenish qi， rectify qi and harmonize blood； in terms of premenstrual period， the method of warming and supplementing spleen and kidney， warming uterus and assisting in fertility can be used. Accordingly， Formulas at the menstruation stage， follicular stage， ovulation stage， and luteal stage to warm yang and remove turbidity are recommended in their modifications， respectively.

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of preoperative 3D-CTA in assisting the preparation of free thinned anterolateral thigh lobulated perforator flap with nerve in repairing soft tissue defect of limb. Methods: Between February, 2010 and May, 2018, free super-thin anterolateral thigh lobulated perforator flap with nerve was transferred to repair soft tissue defect of limbs in 11 cases. There were 8 males and 3 females with an average age of 35 (range, 22-56) years. The defect area was 8.0 cm×11.0 cm-9.0 cm×23.0 cm. Preoperation CT scan of the free flap donor site was performed to obtain 3D images of the region with arterial blood supply by digital 3D reconstruction CT, and to determine the origin, direction, classification, length, diameter and the position of pedicle perforator. Postoperative regular followed-up was carried according to the Upper Limb Function Evaluation Trial Standards of Chinese Medical Association of Hand Surgery and Enneking Evaluation System. Results: All 11 flaps survived. No vascular crisis happened. All 11 cases were followed-up for 3 to 12 (average, 5) months. The flaps were supple and elastic with near normal color. There was no bulkiness. Sensory function was recovered well and two point discrimination was 3.0-6.0 mm. According to the Upper Limb Function Evaluation of Upper Limb of Chinese Medical Association of Hand Surgery, the results were excellent in 1 case, good in 3 cases and fair in 1 case. The Enneking system was used to assesse the lower limbs recovery. The average score was 21, an average of 70% of limb function restored. Conclusion The free super-thin anterolateral thigh lobulated perforator flap with nerve offers advantages to the traditional anterolateral thigh flap. The survived flaps are ideal in terms of covering limb defects and restoring functions. Preoperative 3D-CTA in the anterolateral thigh perforator flap transplantation is an accurate and useful method. It helps a safer and successful operation with optimal outcome.
