BACKGROUND:Chitosan and sodium hyaluronate are two kinds of anti-adhesion materials commonly used, but there are relatively few reports on their anti-adhesion effects in obstetrics patients. OBJECTIVE:To explore the anti-adhesion effects of chitosan and sodium hyaluronate in obstetric patients. METHODS:Totaly 180 cesarean section patients, aged 23-39 years, were equaly divided into control group, chitosan group and sodium hyaluronate group according to treatment methods. Patients in the control group were given the routine cesarean section; patients in the chitosan and sodium hyaluronate group were respectively given local smearing of chitosan and hyaluronate sodium. At 1 day after operation, the levels of serum interleukin-6, interleukin-10, tumor necrosis factor-α and C-reactive protein were determined in the three groups. Then, the patients were folowed up for 1 month to observe the occurrence of postoperative adhesion and complications. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The incidence rate of postoperative adhesions was lower in the chitosan and sodium hyaluronate groups than the control group (P < 0.05). The levels of serum interleukin-6, interleukin-10, tumor necrosis factor-α and C-reactive protein were also lower in the chitosan and sodium hyaluronate groups than the control group (P < 0.05). In addition, the incidence rates of postoperative infection, bleeding and pain were lower in the chitosan and sodium hyaluronate groups than the control group (P < 0.05). However, there was no difference between the chitosan and sodium hyaluronate groups. These findings indicate that the chitosan and sodium hyaluronate are both effective against postoperative adhesions in cesarean section patients, and reduce the incidence of complications.

Objective To investigate the effect of peginterferon alfa-2a injection (PEG-IFNα-2a) combined with ribavirin (RBV) in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (1b) in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Methods The clinical data of patients with type 1b chronic hepatitis C in our hospital from May 2010 to October 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the method of treatment, the patients were divided into IFNα-2a combined with RBV group and PEG-IFNα-2a combined with RBV group. The rapid virologic response (RVR), early virologic response (EVR), and sustained virologic response (SVR) rate were observed in the two groups. The liver function, expressions of CD4+T and CD8+T cell of peripheral blood and the incidence of adverse reaction were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results The RVR, EVR, SVR of two groups was no significant difference (χ2=0.641, 0.946, 0.154, P=0.423, 0.331, 0.694). After treatment, the levels of ALT , AST, DBIL and TBIL in PEG-IFNα-2a combined with RBV group were lower than those in IFNα-2a combined with RBV group (P<0.05). Of the PEG-IFNα-2a combined with RBV group, the CD4+T level was lower and the CD8+T level was higher than that in PEG-IFNα-2a in the combined Leigh Bhave Lin group were lower than that in the IFNα-2a level was lower IFNα-2a combined with RBV group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of influenza-like symptoms, marrow suppression, somnolence and abnormal laboratory indexes between two groups. Conclusion PEG-IFN alpha -2a combined with RBV has a good therapeutic effect on type 1b chronic hepatitis C virus, and has good safety and clinical application value.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and antibacterial resistance of nosocomial infection from a new hospital pathogens,and provide reference for clinical rational use of drugs.METHODS Statistical methods were used to analyze the data of pathogen′s formation,distribution and antibacterial resistance of a new hospital.RESULTS A total of 1852 clinical isolates were collected from Mar 2005 through Mar 2007,of which Gram-negative microorganisms and Gram-positive cocci accounted for 71.0 % and 29.0%,respectively.The most commonly encountered pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Escherichia coli,Klebsiella spp,Acinetobacter,Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus.Except Acinetobacter,up to 6% strains of Gram-negative microorganisms were resistant to the imipenem,meropenem and piperacillin/tazobactam;Gram-positive cocci were still highly sensitive to vancomycin and teicoplanin.CONCLUSIONS A new hospital is similar with other hospitals in the data of formation,distribution and antibacterial resistance of nosocomial infection pathogens.

Objective To summarize our experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic splenic rupture (TSR), in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment effect of TSR. Methods Retrospective (analysis) of the diagnosis and treatment of 184 patients with traumatic splenic rupture in recent 9 years was made. Results The preoperative correct diagnosis rate was 96.7% and was established on the history of (injury), clinical presentation, abdominal paracentesis, abdominal ultrasonography and CT. All the 34 of (patients) treated nonoperatively were cured. Of the 150 patients treated by operation, two died during operation and 148 patients were cured. Conclusions Combination of obtaining a detailed history of injury, physical examination, abdominal paracentesis, abdominal ultrasonography and CT can improve the accuracy rate of (preoperative) diagnosis.Under the ensurrance of the safety of the patients' life, preservation of the spleen should be performed if possible, especially for children. Both splenorrhaphy with or without ligation of splenic artery are simple, safe and effective methods to salvage the spleen.

Objective To compare the effects of intraoperative anesthetic management on im-mune function between enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS)and traditional approach in laparo-scopic rectal surgery.Methods Clinical data of 90 laparoscopic rectal surgery in Shanxi Provincial People’s Hospital from January 2013 to January 201 5 were prospectively analyzed.90 cases (male 5 1 cases,female 39 cases,aged 48-70 years,ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ)were randomly divided into two groups (n = 45 each)using a random number table:ERAS group (group A,n = 45 )and control group (group B,n = 45 ).In group A patients were treated with epidural general anesthesia,maintaining perioperative normothermia,perioperative goal-directed fluid therapy and patient controlled epidural analgesia,while in group B routine anesthetic management and patient controlled intravenous analgesia were used.The levels of blood CRP and IL-6,CD3 + ,CD4 + ,CD8 + ,CD4 +/CD8 + on the first day before operation,the first day and the third day after operation were recorded.Results The blood CRP and IL-6 levels in two groups were increased on the third day after operation(P <0.05), however the increase was more significantly in group A than in group B (P <0.05).Compared with the first day before operation,CD3 + ,CD4 + ,CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + levels in two groups were de-creased on the third day after operation(P <0.05),on the third day group A decreased significantly, which was more than that in group B(P <0.05).Conclusion In the relief of operative stress and the protection of immune function through enhanced recovery after surgery in anesthetic management.

Objective:To compare the histological differences between magnetic anastomosis and traditional suture in canine portal vein (PV) .Methods:Eighteen healthy Chinese garden dogs, either gender, 8-12 months and weighing 13.5-18.9 kg, were randomly divided into magnetic compressive anastomats (MCA) group ( n=9) and hand-sewing (HS) group ( n=9) for PV reconstruction. The time of PV anastomosis was compared between the two groups. HE and Masson staining were performed immediately and at 4, 8, 12 and 24 weeks after operation. The ultrastructure of the anastomosis was observed using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Results:All dogs survived. The PV anastomosis time was significantly shorter in MCA group (3.58±2.75) min than that HS group (12.89±3.12) min, P<0.01. In MCA group, the vascular wall of anastomotic stoma was well aligned immediately after operation, and the shrinkage was obvious in HS group by gross eyes. At 24 weeks, electron microscope scanning showed the re-endothelialization was smooth and endothelial cells arranged regularly at the anastomotic site of the MCA group, whereas different-sized and irregularly aligned endothelial cells and large collagenous fibers arranged in disorder were present at the HS anastomotic stoma. Representative HE and Masson staining confirmed that the magnetic device was associated with decreased infiltration of inflammatory cells and deposition of fibrotic collagen at 24 weeks explanted anastomotic stomas compared with the HS group. Conclusions:Compared with the HS, MCA produced shorter anastomosis time, smooth anastomotic intima, light fibrous tissue hyperplasia, no foreign body residue, mild inflammatory reaction and reliable technique for canines PV anastomosis.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of sunitinib in the treatment of patients with imatinibresistant advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).Methods The clinical data of 45 patients with imatinib-resistant advanced GIST who received the treatment of sunitinib (37.5 mg/d) at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from March 2008 to June 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.The mutation of c-kit and platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα) was detected,and the efficacy of imatinib was assessed after the treatment for 3 months,and factors influencing the survival were analysed.The survival rate was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method,survival analysis was done using the one-way analysis of variance,and multivariate analysis was done using the COX regression model.Results The median time of treatment with sunitinib for the 45 patients was 11.0 months (range,4-37 months).The complete remission rate,partial response rate,rate of stabilized condition and disease progression rate were 15.6％ (7/45),8.9％ (4/45),46.7％ (21/45) and 28.9％ (13/45) after the treatment with sunitinib for 3 months.All the patients with clinical (imaging) complete remission received surgery for metastatic lesions or B-ultrasound guided ablation for single liver metastasis before the treatment with sunitinib.The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse reactions of sunitinib were hand-foot syndrome and anemia.C-kit and PDGFRα mutational analysis were carried out.C-kit exon 9 mutation was detected in 9 patients,c-kit exon 11 mutation in 21 patients,and no mutation was detected in 12 patients.The median progression-free survival time was 8.0 months (range,4.1-11.9 months),and the median overall survival time was 25.0 months (range,13.4-36.6 months).The results of univariate analysis showed that the primary lesion sites and mutational status of primary lesions were factors influencing the progression-free survival and overall survival (x2=5.967,6.622 ; 7.965,8.765,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that only the mutational status of c-kit of primary lesions was the independent factor influencing the progression-free survival and overall survival (Wald =6.540,7.205,P ＜ 0.05).The progression-free survival and overall survival of patients with c-kit exon 9 mutation and patients with no gene mutation were significantly longer than patients with c-kit exon 11 mutation (x2 =7.965,8.765,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Sunitinib with a dosage of 37.5 mg/d could effectively treat patients with imatinib-resistant advanced GIST.A better survival is observed in patients with c-kit exon 9 mutation or with no gene mutation when compared with patients with c-kit exon 11 mutation.

Objective To establish a model of rat orthotopic liver transplantation and investigate the relationship among cold preservation time, activation of nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) and donor preservation injury after liver transplantation. Methods Orthotopic liver transplantation was performed in Wistar rats which were randomly divided into the following groups according to the different duration of liver cold storage in UW solution: group A (sham operation, n=10), group B NF-κB in liver before and after transplantation was measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assays; protein expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in the liver was measured by immunohistochemistry; the serum TNFα and IL-1β, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and hepatic cell apoptosis were examined. Results With extended cold storage duration, the activity of NF-κB in the donor liver increased (P<0.05, group D vs. groups A, B and C). TNF-α and IL-1β levels also increased (P<0.05, group D vs. groups A, B and C). Donor liver reperfusion injury was gradually aggravated with the prolonging of graft cold preservation. Both the serum TNF-α and IL-1β levels increased highly (P<0.05 group A vs. groups B, C and D),NF-κB in the liver significantly increased (P<0.05, group A vs. groups D, B and C) with gradual prolonging of graft cold preservation time. The serum ALT and AST level and apoptosis index level elevated greatly (P<0.05, group A vs. groups D, B and C). Conclusion NF-κB of donor liver was activated inductively in cold preservation phase and activated explosively in reperfusion phase. The longer cold preservation time was, the higher NF-κB level in donor liver became. NF-κB led to the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β in donor liver. Inflammatory factors are one of the most important mechanisms for the donor liver injury after liver transplantation.
