Objective To investigate the effect of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and stent implantation with intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) on immediate death rate and cardiac function of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated with cardiogenic shock.Methods Emergency coronary angiography was taken 0.5-32 h after the attack, and PTCA and stent implantation performed on infarction related artery (IRA), supported by IABP until patients′ complications improved. Myocardial echocardiography was taken 5 weeks after operation.Results Except for 4 patients who died of aggravated shock or cardiac failure, all the patients had IRA reperfusion. Twenty-four patients had stents implanted (85.71%). Mean time from attack to reperfusion was 8.6 h, and death rate in the period of 5 weeks was 31.25%. EF of the 22 patients who survived was 0.43～0.67.Conclusion PTCA and stent implantation supported by IABP can improve results of operation,increase reperfusion rate, decrease immediate death rate and improve cardiac function.

Objective Examinating the efficacy and safety on prophylaxis of deep venous thrombosis(DVT) following arthroplasty using low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) in combination with intermittent pneumatic compression(IPC) starting with different time. Methods 156 patients undergoing primary arthroplasty from July 2003 to June 2005 were divided into four groups randomly. In the first group, 38 patients used LMWH preoperatively and IPC starting since anesthesia. In the second group, 42 patients did LMWH postoperatively and IPC starting since anesthesia. In the third group, 36 patients did preoperative LMWH and post-operative IPC. In the fourth group, 40 patients did post-operative LMWH and IPC. All patients were examined by colour duplex ultrasonography, valued the clinical symptom of DVT, recorded the volume of blood loss in perioperation and observed complication of hemorrhage. Results In the first group, two cases of DVT (5.26%) were found and the average perioperative volume of blood loss was (1030.8?282.0) ml. In the second group, two cases of DVT (4.76%) were found and the average volume of blood loss was (900.7?246.9) ml. In the third group, one case (2.78%) of DVT was found and the average volume of blood loss was (1040.3?288.5) ml. In the fourth group, nine cases of DVT (22.5%) were found and the average volume of blood loss was (852.2?295.4) ml. Comparing the incidence of DVT between each group, group 1, 2, 3 were lower than group 4(P﹤0.05). Comparing the volume of blood loss in perioperation, group 2 , 4 were less than group 1,3(P﹤0.05). Conclusion On the basis of this study, it is more effective and safer using LMWH staring with post-operative 10 h in combination with IPC starting with anesthesia on prophylaxis of DVT following arthroplasty.

Objective To evaluate reoperations for benign bile duct strictures after a prewousRoux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy.Methods Clinical date of 28 patients with previous reconstruction of Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy for benign bile duct strictures were retrospectively analyzed.For data staftstical analysis t-test and stepwise logistic regression analysis were used.Results Reoperative surgery was performed for residual biliary stones with bile duct stricture in 10 cases(35.7%),simple anastomotic stricture of hepaticojejunostomy in 11 cases(39.3%),remained biliary stricture after initial rear in 6 cases (21.4%).anastomotic leakage with duodenal leakage in one case(3.6%).Mode of reoperation:18 cases (64.3%)underwent hepatic lobectomy with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy,liver splitting approach to Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy in 5 cases(17.9%),right hemihepatectomy in one case(3.6%),resection of anastomotic stenosis involved segment and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy in one case(3.6%),abdominal drainage and duodenum fistulization and jejunum ostomy in one case(3.6%),choledocholithotomy with T-tube drainage in 2 cases(7.1%);Thirteen patients(46.4%)developed postoperative complications.Conclusion Biliary tract stenosis remains the main cause for reoperation in patients undergoing a faeled reconstruction.Wide and patent biliary tract drainage and reconstruction somenmes necessitate a hepatic lobectomy.

Objective:To prepare injectable interferon ?-2b(IFN-?-2b) loaded microsphere and develop a long-acting dosage form.Methods: IFN-?-2b loaded microspheres were prepared with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)(PLGA) as carrier material by double emulsion(w/o/w) method and solid in oil in oil(s/o/o) method separately.Physical and chemical characteristics of microspheres(mean diameter,morphology and drug entrapment efficiency) were evaluated;the in vitro release behavior and influencing factors of the microspheres were determined by micro-BCA(bicinchoninic acid) method;and IFN-?-2b stability during encapsulation and in vitro release was evaluated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electropheresis.Results: The 2 types of microspheres produced had good shape and dispersive quality and a drug entrapment efficiency of more than 80%.IFN-?-2b bulk ultrafitration can significantly influence the mean diameter and in vitro release behavior of microspheres prepared by w/o/w method.The accumulated release(within 1 month) of the microspheres prepared by both methods was significantly improved when using PLGA with lower inherent viscosity.SDS-PAGE test showed aggregation of IFN-?-2b with s/o/o method,while there was no difference between the electrophoretic behavior of bulk IFN-?-2b and IFN-?-2b in microspheres prepared by w/o/w method.Conclusion: IFN-?-2b can be encapsulated into injectable microspheres to yield a one-month continuous release by both w/o/w method and s/o/o method.

The aim of this paper is to compare the cytotoxicity and cellular uptake efficiency of three kinds of poly(b-benzyl-L-amino) block-poly(ethylene glycol) nanoparticles (PXA-PEG-NPs) using Calu-3 cells, and select one as a nasal drug delivery vector for curcumin (Cur). Poly(gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate) block-poly(ethylene glycol) nanoparticles (PBLG-PEG-NPs), poly(gamma-benzyl-L-lysine) block-poly(ethyleneglycol) nanoparticles (PZLL-PEG-NPs) and poly(gamma-benzyl-L-aspartate) block-poly(ethylene glycol) nanoparticles (PBLA-PEG-NPs) were prepared by emulsion-solvent evaporation method. MTT assays were used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of PXA-PEG-NPs against Calu-3 cells. The cellular uptake of nanoparticles was visualized by an inverted fluorescence microscope and quantified by a flow cytometer. The results indicated that even at high concentration of 2 mg x mL(-1) the three nanoparticles had no cytotoxicity on Calu-3 cells. Compared to the curcumin solution, the three curcumin-loaded PXA-PEG-NPs showed significantly higher cellular uptake efficiency on Calu-3 cells (at equal concentration of curcumin with 5 microg x mL(-1) Cur solution), PBLG-PEG-NPs group was the highest. The cellular uptake increased with incubation time, and has positive correlation with nanoparticle concentration. In brief, PXA-PEG-NPs are conducive to delivery Cur into cells, and PBLG-PEG-NPs might be provided as a good nasal drug delivery carrier.

Objective: To examine the therapeutic effects of dual dorsolateral prefrontal repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on auditory hallucinations experienced by schizophrenic patients. Methods: A double-blind randomized controlled study was conducted. Totally 25 schizophrenic patients met DSM-Ⅳ criteria for schizophrenia and had anditory hallucination with stable antipsychotic drugs treatment were recruited. Subjects were grouped into active treatment subgroup and sham subgroup randomly. Measurements including the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) for clinical symptom and the Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) for side-effects were evaluated Results: Totally 25 subjects completed the trial. The treatment efficiency of active treatment group was higher than that of sham group (75% vs. 31%) .No overt side effects of rTMS were observed. Conclusion: It is effective for rTMS to treat schizophrenia with auditory hallucination at 1Hz. rTMS may be a new selection of schizophrenia treatment.

Objective An ideal small bowel transplantation model is the prerequisite and guarantee of small bowel transplan-tation-related researches.The aim of this study is to establish a pig model of orthotopic segmental small bowel transplantation by modifi-cation of blood vessel reconstruction and surgical techniques. Methods Twenty healthy pigs were equally assigned as donors and re-cipients.The superior mesenteric vessels were freed and the distal ileum harvested as grafts.After irrigation and preservation, the small bowel was transplanted by end-to-end anastomosis of the superior mesenteric arteries and veins, and then the small bowel was re-constructed simultaneously to restore intestinal continuity, with the proximal part of the graft brought out as a stoma for the purpose of graft monitoring. Results Transplantation was successfully performed in 9 of the 10 cases, with a success rate of 90%.The donor operations averaged 100 min, recipient operations 172 min, warm ischemia 1.3 min, cold ischemia 96 min, and vascular anastomosis 27.6 min.No postoperative anastomosis fistula occurred in any of the cases. Conclusion The pig model of orthotopic segmental small bowel transplantation is ideal for small bowel transplantation-related researches.
