Objective To study the etiology,clinical features and prognosis of cardiogenic cerebral embolism.Methods Cardiogenic cerebral embolism patients in the ward of Department of Cerebral vessels from April 2007 to December 2007 were registered prospectively,and then the clinical data of the patients after 3 months follow-up were analyzed.Results 72 patients were included,49 patients had atrial fibrillation.At the end of the 3 month-follow-up,15 patients were dead,the total mortality was 20.8%.25 patients must depend on others to live on.Conclusion Atrial fibrillation was the most common etiology of cardiogenic cerebral embolism.Internal carotid artery systerm was easier to form embolism than vertebrobasilar systerm.Compared with vertebrobasilar systerm,internal carotid artery systerm was much worse on nerve function impairment and prognosis.Positive measures must be taken to prevent and treat primary cardiopathy,and reduce the rate of cardiogenic cerebral embolism.

Objective:To observe the effects of ischemic postconditioning (I-postC)on the lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR)in the rats,and to investigate the protective effect and the possible mechanisms. Methods:24 Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, ischemia-reperfusion group (IR group)and I-postC group (n=8 ). Referring to routine method in our department, the model rats which underwent 4 h ischemia and 4 h reperfusion of hind limbs were made.In control group,the rubber band around the limb was loose and the blood flow was not blocked. In I-postC group, before reperfusion, ischemia 5 min and reperfusion 5 min were performed in the rats,repeated for 3 times and then perfusion 4 h was taken,The blood and lung tissue from every rat were taken accurately. The percentages of CD1 8 positive cells in peripheral blood,the levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1)and P-selectin in plasma,the myeloperoxidase (MPO)activities in lung tissue,the levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)and P-selectin in lung tissue of the rats in various groups were detected. The partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2 ) and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2 )were measured.The morphological changes of lung tissue under light and electron microscopes were observed.Results:Compared with control group,the percentage of CD18 positive cells and the levels of sICAM-1 and P-selectin of the rats in IR groups were increased (P<0.01);PaO2 and PaCO2 were decreased significantly;the MPO activity in lung tissue was also significantly increased (P<0.01).The HE staining results showed lung interstitial vascular dilation, congestion, PMN infiltration, the increased gap blood vessel, alveolar septal thickening,alveolar exudation, bronchial epithelial cell shedding and necrosis of the rats in IR group. Compared with IR group,the values of biochemical indicators mentioned above were decreased obviously (P<0.01);PaO2 and PaCO2 were increased significantly (P<0.01);the activities of inflammatory factors in plasma and lung tissue were decreased (P < 0.01 ); the pathological changes of lung damage were improved significantly. Conclusion:I-postC can reduce the lung injury after LIR in the rats,and the mechanism may be related to inhibiting the inflammatory reaction.

Objective To observe the effects of ischemic postconditioning (I-postC) on lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR) in rats, and to investigate the protective effect and the mechanisms. Methods Twenty-four Wistar rats were divided into three groups:control group (group Control), ischemia-reperfusion group (group IR) and ischemic postcondi?tioning group (group I-postC). Referring to routine method in our department, the model rats underwent 4-hour ischemia and 4-hour reperfusion of hind limbs were made. In group Control, the rubber band around the limb was loose,which did not block the blood flow. Rats in group I-postC were given repeated 3 times of 5 min ischemia-5 min reperfusion, and then did perfusion 4 h before reperfusion. The blood and lung samples were collected for detecting arterial gas of partial pressure of oxygen [p(O2)] and partial pressure of carbon dioxide [p(CO2)]. The plasma and lung tissue levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and xanthine oxidase (XOD) were detected. The morphological changes of lung tissue were ob?served under light microscope and electron microscope. Results It was found that after suffering from ischemia-reperfu?sion, levels of p(O2) and p(CO2) decreased significantly. The activity of SOD in plasma and lung tissues decreased, but XOD and MDA increased significantly (P<0.05). With microscope, lung interstitial vascular dilation, infiltration of neutrophils, the width of the alveolar space, alveolar septal thickening and alveolar exudate were found. Compared with IR group, it was found that p(O2) and p(CO2) increased significantly in group I-postC. The activity of SOD in plasma and lung tissues in?creased, but XOD and MDA decreased significantly(P<0.05). The mild damage of pathological changes were found. Conclu?sion Ischemic postconditioning can reduce the lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion in rats, which may be related to the inhibition of lipid peroxidation.
