ObjectiveTo investigate the management of myonephropathic-metabolic syndrome (MNMS) after acute arterial occlusion. Methods17 cases of MNMS caused by acute arterial occlusion were restrospectively reviewed. Results5 cases were cured, 6 cases died of sudden cardiac arrest induced by hyperkalemia, and another 6 cases died of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) complicated by acute renal failure. The total mortality rate was 71% and the amputation rate was 41%.ConclusionEarly revascularization should be performed in acute arterial occlusion. In patients with compartment syndrome, fasciotomy should be performed as soon as possible. Early amputation of gangrene limb is very important to prevent MNMS. Early and effective fluid resuscitation and alkalinization is the key point to prevent ARF, early hemodialysis for ARF is very important in treating MNMS.

Objective To analyze the causes of misdiagnosis of aorta diseases for simple inferior limb artery thrombo-embolism,and summarize the clinical experience. Methods Retrospective analysis was made on clinical data of 9 eases misdiagnosed aorta disease,including clinical manifestation,misdiagnosis,improper treatment and final definite diagnosis. Results All 9 cases were misdiagnosed as simple inferior limb thrombo-embolism at first.Three cases were treated with emergent thrombectomy using Fogarty catheter.The correct diagnosis Was achieved by 3-dimensional CT angiography (3DCTA) after operation,and the eitiology of other 6 cases were also pmved as aortic disease by 3DCTA before operation.Among 5 cases of acute aorta dissection with iliac-femoral artery involved,2 cases abandoned surgery with one dying the next day and the other lost to follow-up after being discharged.The other 3 cases were treated with endovascular therapy successfully.One case of abdominal aorta anurysm with mural thrombosis defluxion were treated by aneurysm resection.The other 3 caBes of Leriche syndrome with acute aorta terminal filament thrombosis formation were cured by aortoiliac bypass.The limbs ischemia were improved in all cases without perioperative death.Conclusion Aorta diseases can sometimes lead to acute inferior limb ischemia,mimicking limb artery thrombo-embolism.Preoperative imaging especially 3 DCTA helps to establish correct preoperative diagnosis for a successful treatment.

Objective To observe the changes of Lipids,FBS,ISI and lipoprotein lipase in obesity-related hypertensive patients and investigate the relationship of abnormal glucose and lipid with obesity-related hypertension as well as metabolic syndrome.Methods A total of 122 obesity-related hypertensive patients and 122 matched normal individuals were enrolled.Blood pressure,BMI,WHR and serum lipids and glucose,serum and adipose tissue LPL were measured.Results The TG,FBS and INS in obesity-related hypertensive patients were significantly higher than those in normal control group(P(0.05)).Correlated analysis showed that serum LPL mass was respectively correlated with BMI(r=-0.64,P

【Objective】To observe the in-vitro effect of panax notoginseng saponins(PNS) on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) proliferation and on inducing MSCs to differentiate into cardiomyogenic cells.【Methods】MSCs were isolated from adult SD rats,and then were cultured and cloned by density gradient method and adhesive cultivation.The cell surface markers of MSCs were detected with flow cytometer.The effect of PNS on MSCs proliferation was observed with methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay.The 8th generation of continuous cultured MSCs was used to observe the in-vitro differentiation of cardiomyogenic cells.The cardiomyogenic cells were identified under phase contrast microscope by immunohistochemical method and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) analysis.【Results】CD44 expression of MSCs was positive while that of CD34 expression of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells was negative,indicating the success of the MSCs culture.After induction with PNS,the increase of MSCs was obvious as compared with the blank control group,and there existed histological changes of MSCs after in-vitro induction.The expression of specific proteins of Desmin and cardiac troponin I(cTnI) in MSCs was positive,and the results of RT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of myosin heavy chain(MHC) was increased.【Conclusion】PNS can increase the in-vitro proliferation of MSCs and induce MSCs to differentiate into cardiomyogenic cells in vitro,and this will supply experimental evidence of cell transplantation for the treatment of myocardial infarction.

Objective To investigate the expression of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) in autogenous vein grafts during vascular remodeling.Methods An autogenous vein graft model was established by transplanting the right jugular vein to infrarenal abdominal aorta in 80 Wistar rats. Vein graft samples were harvested 6 hours, 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks after surgery. Gene expression of ERK and p38 MAPK was measured by reverse transcription PCR. Western blot was used to detect the expression of protein products and phosphorylation protein products of ERK and p38 MAPK. Apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) was determined by TUNEL. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) of VSMCs also was studied.Results The expression of ERK 1 mRNA and p38 MAPK mRNA increased considerably after surgery. ERK 1 mRNA reached the peak on the 7th day 〔(33.2?14.2)%, P

BACKGROUND:Studies have confirmed that the nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan/alginate composite materials have a certain flexibility and strength and possess a bioactivity similar to human bone.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of the nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan/alginate composite materials on the repair of rabbit mandible defects.
METHODS:Bilateral mandibular defect models of 10 mm × 5 mm × 5 mm were made in 18 healthy New Zealand white rabbits. Then, the rabbits were divided into two groups:experimental group was implanted with nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan/alginate composite material, and control group was implanted with hydroxyapatite/chitosan composite. At 4, 8 and 12 weeks after implantation, cone-beam CT was applied to observe implant degradation, cal us growth and bone connection in the defect area;new bone formation was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The gray values of the bone density in the experimental group and control group gradual y increased with time, and there were remarkably significant differences between the two groups at different time points (P<0.01). At the same time point, the experimental group was superior to the control group in gross observation, cone-beam CT observation, gray value of CT and histological observation (P<0.05). At 4-8 weeks after implantation, the implant materials in the two groups were gradual y degraded with a blurred junction between the defect and bone tissue, and a smal amount of new bone formed tightly integrated to the recipient bone tissue, in which the experimental group was more significant. And during 8 to 12 weeks, the degradation of implanted materials in the two groups was basical y complete, and the implant began to merge with the recipient bone tissue, with further generation of new bone tissue and gradual repair of bone defect area, in which, the experimental group was more obvious. Results show that the nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan/alginate can repair bone defects effectively, and promote the new bone formation.

OBJECTIVE To study the isolation,distributive characteristics and drug resistance of AmpC enzyme producing Gram-negative bacilli in nosocomial infection of two years and provide the evidence for treatment. METHODS A total of 528 strains of Gram-negative bacilli collected from daily specimens were identified with Bio-Fosun-Ⅰ,and AmpC enzyme was screened by cefoxitin disk and then corroborated by EDTA disk method. All data were analyzed statistically. RESULTS Among 528 strains collected,136 (25.75%) were AmpC enzyme producing strains,the respective percentage of Pseudomonas aerugionsa,Echerichia coli,Enterobacter cloacae,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Citrobacter was 32.35%,28.67%,18.38%,8.09% and 5.15%,respectively. Most strains (38.9%) were detected in ICU. The common infection sites were lungs. The resistance rate of AmpC enzyme producing strains to the first,second and third-generations cephalosporins was 71.3-99.5%. The susceptive rate of AmpC enzyme producing strains to imipenem,cefepine,amikacin and piperacillin/tazobactant were low. CONCLUSIONS For effective supervision and control of AmpC enzyme producing Gram-negative bacilli in nosocomial infection,detection of AmpC enzyme shoud be paid much attention by clinical microbiology laboratory.
