BACKGROUND:It is an important and complex issue for the incidence of bacterial infection and complications after transplantation. The monitoring and care after transplantation can improve the success rate of transplantation. OBJECTIVE:To search the database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure, North American Clinical Trial Register and Thomson Reuters Web of Science database, and to perform literature metrological analysis and clinical trials registration project analysis on the published literatures of the monitoring and care after transplantation. METHODS:A total of 138 literatures were searched with the key words of“intensive care, transplantation”in the database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure on the intensive care after transplantation. 23 literatures were used for further analysis by reading titles and abstracts and 115 papers were excluded; the Thomson Reuters Web of Science database was searched with the key words of“intensive care, transplantation”for the literatures on the intensive care after transplantation published from 2008 to 2013;the North American Clinical Trial Register was searched with the key words of“intensive care, transplantation”for the related clinical trials, and a total of 50 registered projects were obtained, only 10 interventional studies. RESUTLS AND CONCLUSION:In recent years, the literatures on the intensive care after transplantation show a gradual increase trend. Compared with international research, fewer researches in this field emerge in China, literature quantity and quality need to be improved. There have been 1 693 papers published in the Thomson Reuters Web of Science database regarding the intensive care after transplantation. United States published the most literatures than other countries, total 532 papers, accounting for the largest proportion, 31.424%of total literatures. Transplantation Proceeding published the most literatures, total 144 papers, accounting for 8.506%of total literatures. There are 50 clinical trial registration projects related to the intensive care after transplantation in the North American Clinical Trial Register, 10 of them were interventional study, accounting for the majority, fol owed by observational study. Diagnostic study had no related registration projects. The surgery of transplantation was complex with trauma. The early monitoring and care post-transplantation are directly related to the success of surgery. Strengthening the monitoring and care of patients’ vital signs, rejection, bacterial infections and other aspects can reduce the complications and improve patients survival rate and quality of life.

AIM: To observe the effect of adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH) on the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), trkB and corticotropin-releasing hormone(CRH) in the hippocampus of arthritic rats.METHODS: The BDNF immunoreactivity (IR) and CRH-positive neurons were stained with immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization methods, respectively.RESULTS: The BDNF-IR, CRH mRNA-positive neurons in the contralateral hippocampus of the arthritic rats were increased significantly, which was decreased markedly by intraperitoneal injection of ACTH. However, the effect of ACTH was attenuated after adrenalectomy (ADX).CONCLUSION: These results suggest that BDNF and CRH in the hippocampus of arthritic rats were involved in the modulation of chronic pain, ACTH produced its analgesic effect by inhibiting the increase in BDNF and CRF level. Adrenal is critical to the analgesic action of ACTH.
