Objective To explore the changes of wall shear stress(WSS) effect on endothelial cell morphology remodeling after reducing arterial flow. Methods The reducing flow of common carotid artery was established in 60 rabbits,and arterial stretched preparations were made at 8 different intervals from 0 to 30 days.The shape and fibrous actin(F-actin)of arterial endothelial cell(AEC)were observed under an microscope and confocal laser scanning microscope(CLSM) using silver and fluorescein-phalloidin stain. Results The fewer stress fibers were viewed in AEC and its shape changed from spindle to ellipse after WSS decreased for 12 hours,the value of shape index(SI) and length/width(L/W) was greatly higher and lower than the levels of control,respectively(P

Objective To determine the changes of heart structure and function in early stage after lung transplant and to study the relationship between decreased pulmonary artery pressure and changes of heart structure and function.Methods 45 cases of lung transplant recipients were included in the study,their preoperative and postoperative echocardiography data were reviewed,and the postoperative early changes of cardiac structure and function were analysed.Then,the Pearson correlation analysis was used to compare the relationships between the decrease of pulmonary artery pressure and the changes of cardiac structure and function.Results After lung transplant,pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP) decreased significantly [(62.3 ± 27.2) vs (36.20 ± 7.8)mm Hg,P <0.01],and right ventricular dimensions zoomed down,tricuspid valve and pulmonary valve regurgitation reduced,left atrial diameter (LAD) and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDD) were enlarged,stroke volume (SV) increased [(43.85 ± 14.78) vs (58.68 ± 13.85)],but left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was decreased [(69.31 ± 7.50)% vs (62.82 ± 8.12) %],those differences above were statistically significant (P < 0.05) compared with preoperative echocardiography date.Pearson linear correlation analysis show that after lung transplantation the more decreased PASP,the more increased LAD and LVDD,and the more decreased LVEF (P <0.05).Conclusions In early stage after lung transplant,the structure of right ventricular was quickly normalized,the function of right ventricular improved,LAD enlarged,SV increased,but left ventricular function reduced,there were a linear correlation between those changes and PASP reduced.Echocardiography has good reference value for early lung transplant patient.

Objective To investigate the effect of medical rescue of the Maritime Medical Team (Corps) for mass sick and wounded in maritime disaster so as to improve the medical rescue capacity for maritime disasters.Method The construction of maritime medical teams (corps) constituted with various numbers of 10, 15,50 and 120 team members, and the development of algorithm in practice were reviewed. In 68 maritime disasters from January 2003 to December 2009, 937 wounded were rescued by first-aid at sea. The patients were classified and given cardiopulmonary cerebral resuscitation, emergency operation, complication prevention, comprehensive treatment for seawater immersion wound and rapidly referred to hospitals. Results Of 937 patients, 872 survived (93%) and 65 died (7%). Of the dead, 16 died in one hour (25%), 43 died in 24 hours after injury (66%),andofthem, 61died of trauma (94% ) , 2 died of drowning and 1 died of poisoning. Conclusions Besides a good command of the features of mass sick and wounded, organization and program, treatment strategies and measures, the timely and effective assignment for on-site first aid at sea and safe transfer were very important for medical rescue of mass patients in maritime disaster. After the practice of maritime medical team (corps) in medical rescue during maritime disaster, the rapid response capability, cooperation and the quality of rescue were improved, and the experience of medical service of marine medical team (corps) was enriched.

Objective To investigate the correlation of right ventricular (RV) to left ventricular (LV) volume ratio (RVv/LVv) measured by chest CT with pulmonary arterial pressure estimated by echocardiography before lung transplantation.Methods We reviewed 104 cases of lung transplant.According to the mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) exceeding 25 mmHg by right heart catheterization,hypertensive group (n =74) and normotensive group (n =30) were set up.Risk factors were assessed individually and adjusted for confounding by a multivariable logistic regression analysis.The area under the curve (AUC) for predicting pulmonary hypertension on chest CT and echocardiography was calculated.Results RVv/LVv and echocardiography-derived ptlmonary arterial systolic pressure (PASP) were significantly different between the two groups (P < 0.05).In the hypertensive group,there was strong correlation between the RVv/LVv and PASP from catheterization (R =0.82,P<0.001),also between the P ASP from echocardiography and catheterization (R =0.60,P< 0.001).The ROC curve displayed that with 0.85 as the cutoff for RVv/LVv,the sensmitivity,specificity and accuracy rate for predicting mPAP over 25 mmHg were 87.5%,91.8% and 90.9%,respectively.The ROC curve also displayed that based upon an echocardiography-derived PASP of 35 mmHg as the cutoff point,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy rate for predicting mPAP over 25 mmHg were 91.2%,90.8% and 88.4%,respectively.Conclusion RV/LV volume ratios on chest CT and echocardiographic evaluation correlate well with PASP assessed by right heart catheterization and can be used to predict pulmonary hypertension with high sensitivity and specificity.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value and imaging characteristics of ultrasound and multi-slice spiral CT in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) wrist joint lesions.Methods:The clinical data of 54 cases of RA wrist arthropathy in Jianhu Hospital Affiliated to Nantong University from December 2018 to April 2020 were analyzed. All the patients were examined by ultrasound and multi-slice spiral CT. The imaging characteristics of ultrasound and multi-slice spiral CT were analyzed, and the detection rates of synovitis, joint effusion, tenosynovitis, bone erosion and wrist joint lesions were calculated.Results:A total of 1 188 joints were examined in 54 patients with RA, including 108 wrist joints, 540 metacarpophalangeal joints and 540 proximal interphalangeal joints. There was no significant difference in the detection rate of wrist joint synovitis, joint effusion and tenosynovitis between ultrasound and CT ( P>0.05). The wrist joint lesions detection rates of ultrasound and CT were 97.2%(105/108) and 46.3% (50/108), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 36.52, P<0.05). Ultrasound image features: synovitis ultrasound image showed hypoechoic joint cavity, not by joint displacement or compression image, color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) examination could see blood flow signal;joint effusion in ultrasound image of joint effusion was strip, strip-shaped, non-uniform distribution, image was affected by joint displacement or compression, CDFI examination had no blood flow signal; bone erosion ultrasound image showed bone cortical continuous interruption or "crater" "insect erosion" like defects. CT imaging features: wrist joint space narrow, osteoporosis, some patients with scaphoid, distal radius visible bone erosion. Conclusions:The detection rate of wrist synovitis, joint effusion and tenosynovitis by ultrasound and multi-row spiral CT are similar. The multi-row spiral CT examination have a slight advantage in evaluating the joint space and bone changes. The sensitivity of wrist bone erosion and wrist joint lesions are higher than those of multi-row spiral CT, which can guide the early clinical diagnosis and treatment of RA.
