Objective To explore the influence of minimally invasive puncture drainage on blood brain barrier (BBB) function and its mechanism.Methods Ninety-two patients with hypertensive intra-cerebral hemorrhage (HICH) in the Department of Neurosurgery of Jiaxing Affiliated Second Hospital of Zhejiang Province were divided into a control group and an observation group, according to random number table method, 46 cases in each group. In the control group, the conventional craniotomy was performed, while in the observation group, minimally invasive puncture drainage was carried out to remove the hematoma. The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were used to evaluate the neural function, the level of serum myelin basic protein (MBP) was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), the central nervous specific serum protein S100 level was measured by electrochemical luminescence method, the albumin levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid were determined by automatic biological analyzer, and the BBB index was calculated. After 14 days of surgery, the curative effect and incidence of complications of two groups were observed.Results After surgery, the NIHSS scores of two groups were obviously lower than those before surgery, and the degree of descent in observation group was more significant than that in the control group (score: 3.68±2.39 vs. 5.43±3.89,P < 0.05); after surgery, the levels of MBP, S100, albumin in cerebrospinal fluid and BBB in two groups were higher than those before surgery [MBP (μg/L): 3.02±0.28 vs. 3.81±0.29, S100 (μg/L): 0.95±0.24 vs. 1.34±0.27, cerebrospinal fluid albumin (μg/L): 9.89±0.78 vs. 21.43±1.14, BBB index: 0.22±0.04 vs. 0.48±0.05], the differences being statistically significant (allP < 0.05), but the change values in the observation group were less significant than those in the control group. The total effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [84.78% (39/46) vs. 65.22% (30/46),χ2 = 4.696,P = 0.030]. The incidence of wound infection, gastrointestinal bleeding in observation group was markedly lower than that in the control group [16.67% (6/46) vs. 36.96% (17/46), χ2 = 4.120,P = 0.042].Conclusion The minimally invasive puncture drainage has unequivocal clinical curative effect in treatment of patients with HICH, it can protect the nerve and BBB functions and reduce the incidence of complications.

Objective To determine the effect of the modified UW (University of Wisconsin)solution in the treatment of acute renal tubular necrosis in newborn swine. Methods Ten one-week-old newborn swine were used to establish the animal model of acute renal tubular necrosis by clamping their renal arteries,and were divided into two groups: the model group( n = 5 ) and the treatment group ( n = 5 ) in which fructose diphosphate sodium UW solution was used. Sham surgery was performed on other five swine, which were used as the sham group. At 12 h,l d,2 d,3 d and 7 d after the operation,the urine volume,urine protein,blood urea nitrogen(BUN) and creatinine(Cr) were determined. At 12 h ,24 h and 7 d after the operation ,renal pathological examination was conducted. Results The renal pathological examination and the blood biochemistry tests showed that the animal model was successful. BUN and Cr in the model group and the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the sham group at 12 h after operation(P <0. 05) ,and they arrived at their peak values at 2 d after operation,showed remarkable decline at 7 d,especially in treatment group,and returned to the level of the sham group. The urine protein in the model group and treatment group were higher than those in the sham group at various times(P <0.05 or P <0.01) and it peaked at 1 d after operation,then declining gradually,especially in the treatment group. Compared with the sham group,there were a significant decrease in the urine volume at various times in the model group(P <0. 05 or P <0. 01 ) ,while in the treatment group,the decrease in the urine volume were significant only at 12 h, 1 d and 2 d( P < 0. 05 ) ,and turned insignificant at 3 d and 7 d. The pathological examination showed that the pathological changes in the treatment group were significantly milder than those in the model group. Conclusion The modified UW solution is effective in reducing the acute renal tubular necrosis in newborn swine.

Objectives To detect the clinical significance of high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and immune function in children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP). Methods 103 children with MPP, 47 cases of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS group), 56 cases of non-systemic inflammatory response syndrome (non-SIRS group) were recruited. 26 healthy children served as the control group. ELISA was used to detect the level of serum hs-CRP, immune in-dexes, IgG, IgA, and IgM, Cellular immune CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+. Results The level of serum hs-CRP、IgG、IgM and CD8+in control group were significantly lower than those in non-SIRS group and SIRS group (P<0.05). The level of IgA、CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+in control group were significantly higher than those in non-SIRS group and SIRS group (P<0.05). The level of serum hs-CRP、IgG in SIRS group were significantly higher than those in non-SIRS group (P<0.05). The level of IgA、CD3+、CD4+、CD4+/CD8+in SIRS group were significantly lower than those in non-SIRS group. There was no significant difference in non-SIRS group and SIRS group of IgM and CD8+(P>0.05). The level change of serum hs-CRP were positively related with IgG (r=0.66,P=0.001) and were negatively related with IgA、CD4+、CD4+/CD8+(r=0.79, 0.67, 0.82, P all were<0.05) in chil-dren with MPP. Conclusion Children with MPP have Immunity function( including humoral immunity and cellular immunity) disorder which is related to the disease status. The level of hs-CRP could be an anpation index for the severity and immune func-tion of the children with MPP.
