Objective To discuss the meaning of continuous intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring in patients with severe traumatic craniocerebral injury. Methods One hundred and twenty four patients with severe craniocerebral injury treated from August 2004 to February 2011 in our hospital, were enrolled and divided randomly into ICP monitoring group (n = 62) and routine treatment group (n = 62). The patients of ICP monitoring group had adjusted treatment plan according to the changes of ICP at any time, whereas the patients in routine treatment group underwent routine neurosurgical treatment according to the doctors' experience. Results There were 7 cases of acute kidney function failure,and 11 cases of electrolyte disturbances in the ICP group.There were 15 cases of acute kidney function failure, and 25 cases of electrolyte disturbances in the routine group. The complication rate in the ICP group was lower than that in the routine group (x2 =3. 54 and 7.67 for acute kidney function failure and electrolyte disturbances respectively, Ps <0. 01). The days of mannite using were (6±2)dand (15 ±3)d, respectively; the dosage of mannite using were (749 ± 125) g and (1545 ±250) g,respectively. The good recovery and slight disability were 28 and 16 cases in the ICP group, and 13 and 9 cases in the routine group,respectively. The severe disability,vegetative state and death were 9,4 and 8 cases in the ICP group,and 17,7 and 13 cases in the routine group. The days and dosage of mannite using in the ICP group were much less than those in the routine group (t = 8. 32 and 7.41, Ps < 0. 01). The proportion of good recovery and slight disability in the ICP group were higher than those in the routine group(x2 =5. 07 and 3. 55,Ps <0.01). However, the proportion of severe disability, vegetative state and death in the ICP group were lower than those in the routine group (x2 =0.84,0.89 and 1.43, Ps < 0. 01) . Conclusion Continuous ICP monitoring in severe craniocerebral injury shows benefits in directing treatment plan adjustment, reducing complications and improving the prognosis.

Liver transplantation has become the most effective treatment option for end-stage liver diseases.The liver donation after cardiac death (DCD) had been increasingly used in clinical practice.Nevertheless,the DCD donated livers inevitably exposed to long-term ischemia and hypoxia makes the implanted organs with decreased function and more postoperative complications.Different from the conventional static cold storage,machine perfusion (MP) can be continuously used in vitro liver perfusion,which could simulate the in vivo liver status.Through the observation of ischemia injury status,we could evaluate the quality of donated liver,and thus reduce ischemia related complications.This review provides an overview and evaluation on the markers that have been investigated for the assessment of graft quality and viability testing during different types of MP.

Objective To systematically review the effect of donor ischaemic preconditioning in liver transplantation.Methods Databases including the Cochrane Library,PubMed,EMbase,CNKI,VIP and WanFang database were searched up to June 2016 for studies which involved donor ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) in liver transplantation.The data retrieved included 1-year mortality,incidence of Primary Graft Non-Functioning (PGNF),intensive therapy unit (ICU) hospitalization and liver function tests which were used to evaluate the treatment outcomes.The data were analyzed using both the fixed-effect and the random-effects models.For categorical outcomes,risk ratio (RR) with 95％ confidence intervals (CI) were calculated.For continuous outcomes,the mean difference (MD) with 95％ CI were calculated.The metaanalysis was performed using Review Manager 5.2 software.Results Six clinical studies with 322 patients were qualified for this meta-analysis.There were no significant differences in the 1-year mortality (OR =0.51,95％ CI 0.24 ～ 1.05,P ＞ 0.05),PGNF (OR =0.33,95％ CI 0.08 ～ 1.40,P ＞ 0.05) and ICU hospitalization (OR =-0.17,95 ％ CI-2.72 ～ 2.38,P ＞ 0.05) between the donor ischaemic preconditioning and the control groups.There were also no significant differences in the transaminase and bilirubin levels on postoperative day 1,3 and 7 between the two groups.Conclusion There is currently not enough evidence in evidenced based medicine to recommend the routine use of ischaemic preconditioning in donor liver retrieval.

Objective To analysis the effect of axial loading to ADC value, FA of lumbar intervetebral discs. Methods Forty five patients with low back pain (age range, 25 to 54 years) were evaluated with MR T2WI, MR T1WI and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of the lumbar spine. Following axial loading with 40% to 50% body weight for 10 minutes, a repeat DTI was performed. DTI were obtained by using an echo-planar imaging ( EPI ) sequence, TE 89 ms, TR 2500 ms, b value of 400 s/mm2,6 noncollinear diffusion directions. Scan time was approximately 4 min 10 s. An isotropic ADC map, FA map and bo map were calculated from DTI sequence. The mean ADC value, FA prior to and following axialloading were analyzed with t test and Rank Sum test. Results Forty five patients with 225 discs were evaluated and 223 discs were included in the study except for 2 calcified discs. The Pfirrmann grading results were as following: 100 Grade Ⅱ , 48 Grade Ⅲ, 59 Grade Ⅳ, and 16 Grade Ⅴ. No significant difference existed in the mean ADC value before [ ( 1666 ± 252 ) × 10-3 mm2/s ] and after [ ( 1662 ± 253 ) ×10 -3 mm2/s ] axial loading ( Z = - 1.363, P ＞ 0.05 ), but the mean FA [ ( 301 ± 104 ) × 10 -3, ( 316 ±112) × 10-3 ] value increased ( Z = - 2.794, P ＜ 0.05 ). The paired-samples t test show that the mean ADC value [ ( 1685 ± 190) × 10-3 mm2/s, ( 1624 ± 180) × 10-3mm2/s] of Grade Ⅲ discs decreased after axial loading, t=3.513, P＜0. 05, Grade Ⅲ, Ⅳdiscs mean FA value [(300±87) ×10-3, (326±87) ×10-3 for Grade Ⅲ and (348 ±67) × 10-3, (351 ± 71 ) × 10-3 for Grade Ⅳ ] increased, t = - 2. 210,- 2.006, P ＜ 0.05. No significant difference existed in Grade Ⅱ , Ⅳ and Ⅴ discs ADC value, all the P ＞0.05. No significant difference existed in Grade Ⅱ and Ⅴ discs FA value, both the P ＞ 0.05. Conclusions Short time axial loading mainly affect the mildly degenerated discs, the ADC value decreases and the disc diffusion ability decreases. No obvious change in ADC value or disc diffusion ability existed in the normal and severely degenerated discs.

Antimicrobial resistance poses a serious threat to public health and is one of the major challenges worldwide. As global social, economic, and environmental changes lead to increased exposure of populations to antimicrobials, the antimicrobial resistance of pathogens has accelerated and resulted in weakened clinical infection treatment effects. This article reviews the main mechanisms and driving factors of the production and spread of antimicrobial resistance from the perspective of "One Health"and discusses methods and strategies for controlling antimicrobial resistance from multiple dimensions. It also looks forward to the prospects of research and prevention of drug resistance to explore antimicrobial resistance prevention and control strategies based on "One Health".
