Objective To observe the influence of different dosage of mannitol on hemodynamics after hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage ( HIH ). Methods Sixty cases with HIH were divided into three groups by random digits table with 20 cases each. Performing routine treatment, also 20% mannitol 250 ml was used 3-4 times/d for 14-21 d in group A,20% mannitol 125 ml was used 2-3 times/d for 3-14 d in group B,and mannitol was not used in group C. The mean blood flow velocity(Vm) and pulsatility index (PI)in bleeding side of the middle cerebral artery (M1) were measured by TCD, and monitoring patient's kidney function. Results After treatment 1 d , Vm comparative differences among three groups were no statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05 ), and after treatment 10 d and 3 weeks, the Vm in group A [(45.01 ± 5.13 ), (59.41 ±7.24) cm/s] and group B [(44.61 ± 5.04), (58.94 ±7.12) cm/s] were significantly higher than those in group C [(42.42 ±4.26), (55.06 ±7.16) cm/s] (P ＜0.05), but the differences were no statistically significant between group A and group B (P ＞0.05). With the extension of treatment time, PI recovery gradually, but compared PI,after treatment 1 d, 10 d and 3 weeks,there were no statistical differences among three groups (P ＞ 0.05 ). After treatment 3 weeks, kidney function abnormal ratio in group A [35.0%(7/20)] was significantly higher than that in group B [20.0% (4/20)] and group C [15.0% (3/20)] (P＜0.05). Conclusion Using small dosage of mannitol,not only increase HIH cerebral blood flow velocity,improve brain blood perfusion,reduce cerebral ischemic injury,but also reduce kidney damage,safety is higher.

Objective To study the protective effects of mild hypothermia on cerebral and levels of serum levels of anti -brain antibodies after severe traumatic brain injury.Methods Severe traumatic brain injury were selected as the Ⅰ group (n=60),also select healthy as the Ⅱgroup (n=30),the Ⅰgroup was divided into group A (n=30)and group B (n=30)according to a random number table.The patients of group A was given hypothermia and the patients of group B were treated with temperature treatment,the levels of anti-brain antibodies in serum of each group were determined in ELISA assay,changes in cerebral blood flow before and after treatment of group A and group B were observed in Doppler,and observed Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS )of group A and group B.Results The level of anti-brain antibodies in serum of theⅠgroup was (0.59 ±0.02)U/mL significantly higher than that ofⅡ group (0.38 ±0.01)U/mL,the difference was statistically significant(t=9.192,P=0.029);the level of anti-brain antibodies in serum after treatment of group A was (1.58 ±0.03)U/ml significantly lower than that of group B (1.82 ±0.04)U/mL,the difference was statistically significant(t=10.042,P=0.019);the average flow velocity, pulse index and GCS score after treatment of group A were (54.20 ±0.23)cm/s,(0.51 ±0.02),(10.03 ±1.03) points significantly better than those of group B[(40.03 ±0.04)cm/s,(0.72 ±0.02),(8.12 ±0.02)points],the difference was statistically significant (t=9.892,10.041,9.189,P=0.021,0.018,0.026).Conclusion The lev-els of anti-brain antibodies in serum can significantly increase after severe traumatic brain injury,Hypothermia can reduce the serum levels of anti-brain antibodies,can increase cerebral blood flow.

Objective To observe the effect of dual-task interference on postural sway and hand flexibility of patients with early Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods Twenty-tree patients with early PD and twcnty-three healthy,sex-and age-matched control subjects were examined.Postural sway was measured with an accelerometer at the centre of mass at the lower spine.Two parameters of postural sway were computed from the acceleration signals including root mean square acceleration (RMS) and jerkiness of sway (JERK).Purdue pegboard test,single-task tests and dual-task test were performed respectively to record the numbers of nails inserted with left hand,right hand and both hands within 30 seconds.Results In the usual conditions,no significant differences of postural sway parameters were found between the control group and PD group in eye open and eye closed condition.In dualtask condition,PD patients showed an increase of RMS values (eye open conditions:PD group (0.156±0.112) m/s2,control group (0.086±0.026) m/s2;eye closed conditions:PD group (0.204±0.162)m/s2,control group (0.095±0.023)m/s2) of sway acceleration,compared with control subjects (P＜0.01).These differences reached significance during cognitive task performance in eye open and eye closed with dual task.PD patients showed larger JERK values with increasing difficulty of the sway task which also reached significance during cognitive task performance(P＜0.05).The number of pegs inserted within 30 s in patients with PD (17.33±4.87)was significantly lower than that in controls (20.77±4.13) (P＜0.05).Conclusion The hand flexibility of patients with early PD obviously decrease.The balance of patients with early PD may deteriorate when their attention is diverted or reduced because of attempting to perform cognitive tasks.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of liver deformation and changes in abdominal vascular diameter under artificial pneumoperitoneum based on CT images,and also to reveal the impact of intestinal adhesion on these characteristics.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 61 patients who underwent abdominal CT scan and artificial pneumoperitoneum CT.Eight cases did not meet the inclusion criteria.The sample included 41 patients with postoperative intestinal adhesion(POIA)and 12 patients without POIA.A three-dimensional post-processing software was used to quantify the gas volume,liver volume,liver surface area,and lumen of the abdominal aorta,inferior vena cava,and portal vein on CT images of patients who underwent abdominal CT scan and artificial pneumoperitoneum CT.The measured indices were compared before and after artificial pneumoperitoneum in all patients,and the impact of intestinal adhesion on the aforementioned indices was evaluated.Results At equivalent levels of pneumoperitoneum pressure,no statistically significant difference was observed in the quantity of gas in the abdominal cavity between patients with and without POIA(P=0.753).In the absence of pneumoperitoneum,POIA patients exhibited a significantly higher liver volume than non-adhesion patients(P＜0.01).Following the application of artificial pneumoperitoneum pressure,both liver volume and liver surface area were reduced in all patients,with a more pronounced decrease in POIA group(P=0.003,P=0.002).In addition,the reductions in the internal diameters of the inferior vena cava at three locations and the portal vein position 1 were also observed in all patients(P＜0.05).Notably,the POIA group exhibited more significant decrease in the internal diameters of inferior vena cava position 1 and the portal vein position 1(P=0.022,P=0.038).No significant differences were observed in the changes of internal diameter of other blood vessels or in the intergroup comparison.Conclusion Artificial pneumoperitoneum can reduce the volum,the surface area of liver,and the inner diameter of some abdominal vessels,which provides a scientific basis for navigation and real-time correction in laparoscopic abdominal surgery for patients,especially for patients with POIA.
