Objective To investigate the cause of severe complications after arterial perfusion for esophageal cancer and the methods of prevention. Methods 368 cases of esophageal cancer were treated with arterial perfusion of drugs for chemotherapy. The treatment numbers were 909 including 215 males and 153 females with the age ranging from 39 to 86. These patients were verified as esophageal cancers histopathologically. Selective angiography of the relevant esophageal segments and drugs for perfusion chemotherapy were undertaken. Results The complications included one case of paralysis due to spinal cord injury, two cases with esophageal perforation and three cases of necrotic esophagitis. The case of paralysis died of original disease one month after the treatment. Of the cases of esophageal perforation, one formed the esophgus-trachea fistula and survived for eight months after being esophageal stent implantation and the other formed esophagus-mediastinum fistula and died of massive hemorrhage after six weeks. Three cases of necrotic esophagitis occurred at the normal segments of the esophagus and formed esophgeal perforation. Of these three cases, one formed esophago-broncheal fistula and survived up to now after creating drainage stoma of stomach. Two cases of the esophgus-mediastinum and esophgus-bronchius fistula died of severe infection. Conclusions Severe complications of esophageal arterial catheterization with drugs for chemotherapy are rare. Less harmful, non-ionization contrast medium, low cellular toxicity drugs for chemotherapy with proper doses and concentrations should be selected together with optimal speed of infusion. Esophageal internal stent placement drainage stoma creation of stomach should be the useful adjunct for severe complications.

Objective To observe the effect of the rivaroxaban and low molecular weight heparin calcium to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after artificial joint replacement. Methods 167 patients included 114 cases for total hip arthroplasty and 53 cases for total knee replacement from Novermber, 2009 to October, 2010 were divided into two groups: observation group (n=84) was treated with rivaroxaban tablets, 6 h after surgery, 10 mg/d, 2 weeks for knee arthroplasty, 5 weeks for total hip arthroplasty; and control group (n=83) was treated with low molecular weight heparin calcium 2500 IU 2 h before and after surgery for 5 d. Ultrasonography was used to detect the deep vein lumen size change and DVT rate of bilateral lower extremities in all patients before and after surgery. Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was tested before surgery, and 2 d, 5 d, 7 d, 14 d, 35 d after surgery. Results ① Incidence of DVT showed that there were 9 cases (10.7%) with DVT in the observation group; there were 15 cases with DVT (18.1%) in the control group. ② Lower limb deep vein lumen size change comparison: there were 23 cases (27.4%) with superficial femoral vein stenosis more than 2 mm in the observation group while 38 cases (45.8%) in the control group, there were 27 cases (32.1%) with popliteal veins stenosis more than 2 mm in the observation group and 47 cases (56.6%) in the control group (P<0.01). ③APTT: APTT prolonged >10 s was 0 in the observation group while 23 cases (27.7%) in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Trivaroxaban may prevent DVT after artificial joint replacement and be better than low molecular weight heparins calcium.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of Gegenqinlian colon positioning tablet(GGQLJC)on colon tissue PPAR-γ, NF-κB p65 protein expressions of model rabbits with damp-heat type ulcerative colitis(UC). METHODS:56 rabbits were random-ly divided into normal group(normal saline),model group(normal saline),sulfasalazine tablet(SASP)group(positive control, 0.300 g/kg),Gegenqinlian tablet (GGQL) group (0.225 g/kg) and GGQLJC high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups (1.036, 0.518,0.259 g/kg),8 in each group. Except for normal group,rabbits in other groups were cultured for damp-heat-type UC mod-el,intragastrically administrated in the second day of last administration,once a day,for 14 d. Disease activity index(DAI),co-lonic mucosal damage index (CMDI),histological damage (TDI) were scored;colon,spleen and thymus indexes were deter-mined;PPAR-γ,NF-κB p65 protein expressions in colon tissue were detected. RESULTS:Compared with normal group,DAI, CMDI,TDI scores and spleen index,colon index,NF-κB p65 protein level in colon tissue in model group were significantly in-creased(P<0.01);thymus index,PPAR-γprotein level in colon tissue were significantly reduced(P<0.01). Compared with mod-el group,above-mentioned indexes in each administration group were significantly improved (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with GGQL group,DAI and TDI scores,spleen index,colon index,NF-κB p65 protein level in colon tissue in SASP group, GGQLJC high-dose,medium-dose groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05);PPAR-γ protein level in colon tissue in SASP group,GGQLJC high-dose,medium-dose groups were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:GGQLJC has certain improvement effects on model rabbits with damp-heat type UC,which is superior to GGQL. The mechanism may be re-lated to increasing PPAR-γprotein level and decreasing NF-κB p65 protein level in colon tissue.

Objective To evaluate the role of 5-HT1A receptors in distal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting neurons in neuropathic pain (NP) in rats. Methods Forty male SD rats weighing 230-270 g were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 8 each): sham operation group (group S); NP group; dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group and 8-OH-DPAT (a specific 5-HT1A receptor agonist) group. NP was induced by chronic constrictive injury (CCI) in groups NP, DMSO and 8-OH-DPAT. Four silk ligatures were placed on the sciatic nerve at 1 mm intervals . In group S, the sciatic nerve was exposed but not ligated. 8-OH-DPAT and DMSO 1 μl were injected into the region where most of CSF-contacting neurons are present over 5 min on 7th day after CCI in groups 8-OH-DPAT and DMSO respectively. Paw withdrawal latency (PWL) and paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) were measured before CCI, on 7th day after CCI, and at 3 and 6 h after administration. The rats were sacrificed 6 h after administration, and the brain tissues removed for determination of the expression of 5-HT1A receptors in the distal CSF-contacting neurons by immunofluorescence. Results Compared with group S, PWL was significantly shorten and PWT decreased at T, in groups NP, DMSO and 8-OH- DPAT (P < 0.01) . Compared with group DMSO, PWL was significantly prolonged and PWT increased at T2 and T3 in group 8-OH-DPAT ( P < 0.01). The 5-HT1A receptor expression was significantly down-regulated in groups NP and DMSO compared with group S, while up-regulated in group 8-OH-DPAT compared with groups NP and DMSO ( P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in 5-HT1A receptor expression between groups NP and DMSO ( P > 0.05). Conclusion 5-HT1A receptors in distal CSF-contacting neurons are involved in the regulation of NP in rats.
