AIM: To explore the variation of blood biochemistry and arterial blood gas of patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) in the early time after trauma and improve the diagnosis and first aid. METHODS: Eighty-eight patients with trauma from August 2003 to February 2004 were divided into two groups by their AIS-ISS90 score. The data of temperature, pulse, respiratory rate, white blood cell counts, Hb, blood glucose and arterial blood gas (PaO 2, PaCO 2, HCO 3 -, AG) were collected and compared with each group by statistic methods. RESULTS: Of the 88 patients, 49 underwent SIRS, 12 in light trauma group (ISS≥16) and 37 in severe trauma group (ISS45 mmHg or 0 05). 13 patients had MODS in severe trauma group and 2 died while none had MODS or died in light trauma group. CONCLUSION: Application of AIS-ISS90 and SIRS-related blood biochemistry and arterial blood gas is beneficial for the diagnosis and treatment for patients in the early time after trauma. [

Objective To investigate whether or not the pulmonary artery participates in the blood supply of lung cancer and its change of morphology and blood flow in lung cancer. Methods Two different colors of silicone were injected separately into the bronchial and pulmonary arteries of 33 rat models with squamous cell carcinoma of lung. The origin of blood supply of lung cancer and the morphologic change of pulmonary artery were observed under a stereomicroscope. The DSA of bronchial and pulmonary artery were performed simultaneously in 28 patients with lung cancer. Results The pulmonary branch of rat and patients were reduced, thinned and occluded in the affected lung. The pulmonary artery did not form tumor vessel, and pulmonary blood flow and perfusion were reduced or absent in the affected area. Conclusion The pulmonary artery didn′t participate in the blood supply of lung cancer. It is unreasonable to perform transcatheter chemo embolization for lung cancer via pulmonary arteriay.

Objective To study the effect of Chinese Herb of Yigan Granules in different dosages on bile secretion in rats.Methods The rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: blank control group,positive control group and high,mod erate,low dosages of Yigan Granules groups.The medicines were administered thr ough duodenal intubation for the rats.Then the volume of bile were gathered by common bile duct intubations in different time,and the volume of bile and the contents of bilirubin in bile were tested before and after given drugs.Results Yigan Granules increased the bile secretion in a dose-dependent manner and promote the secretion of bilirubin.Conclusion Chinese Herb of Yigan granules has a choleretic effect.

Objective To study the expression and signficance of the osteopontin (OPN) in epithelial ovarian cancer tissue and serum. Methods Immunohistochemistry method and ELISA were used to detect the expression of OPN in 64 cases of epithelial ovarian cancer tissue and serum, 20 cases of ovarian benign tumors and 10 cases of ovarian nomal tissues. Results The OPN expression was associated with the clinical staging and histological grading of epithelial ovarian cancer tissue and serum (P < 0.01). The level of OPN in epithelial ovarian cancer tissue was significantly higher than that in benign ovarian tumor and normal control groups (P < 0.01). Conclusion OPN is remarkably correlated with the carcinogenesis and the development of epithelial ovarian cancer.

ObjectiveFew studies are reported on the sublingual immunotherapy with dermatophagoides farinae drops (DFD) for mite-allergic cough variant asthma (CVA) in children. This study aimed to investigate the clinical effects of DFD sublingual immunotherapy on mite-allergic CVA in children.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on 225 children with mite-allergic CVA treated in Wuhan Children′s Hospital from January 2016 to January 2017. The patients were divided into a control (n=123) and an experimental group (n=102) to receive symptomatic treatment and symptomatic treatment combined with DFD sublingual immunotherapy, respectively, both for 10 months. We recorded the relevant indicators, including the symptom scores, lung function parameters, levels of dust mite IgE and inflammatory factors (IL-4, TGF-β and INF-γ), and related risk factors, and compared the data obtained between the two groups of patients before and after treatment.ResultsThere were no statistically significant differences between the two groups of patients in the baseline daily and nocturnal cough symptom scores, lung function parameters, or levels of serum IgE, IL-4, TGF-β and INF-γ (P>0.05). After treatment, the children in the experimental group showed markedly lower daily and nocturnal cough symptom scores than the control (0.87±0.06 and 0.91±0.11 vs 2.54±0.32 and 2.38±0.42, P<0.05), better pulmonary function parameters (FEV1/FVC: \[1.98±0.56\]% / \[79.67±9.05\]% vs \[1.65±0.37\] / \[75.87±11.56\]%, P<0.05), and a higher effectiveness rate (73.53% vs 54.47%, P<0.05). The single- and multi-factor analyses showed that age, disease course and treatment methods were independent risk factors influencing the therapeutic effect on mite-allergic CVA in children (P<0.05).ConclusionSublingual immunotherapy with DFD can effectively improve the clinical symptoms and lung function in children with mite-allergic CVA, which may be associated with the decreased levels of serum IgE, IL-4, TGF-β and INF-γ. Age, disease course and treatment methods are independent risk factors influencing the therapeutic effect.

Objective To investigate the possible mechanism of the gap junctional influence on the change in permeability of the blood-brain barrier(BBB)after reperfusion subsequent to cerebral ischemia.Methods In the test laser scanning confocal microscope(LSCM)was used to investigate the change of Cx43 levels and distribution.The MCAO/R model was induced using intraluminal suture technique first described by Longa with a little modification.A total of 60 Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups:the sham-operation group,control group,octanol-treatment group and DMSO vehicle control group. Control group were further divided into seven subgroups at different time points of reperfusion after middle cerebral artery occlusion.To observe the change in permeability of BBB,Evans blue(EB)in the brain tissue was surveyed by the means of EB fluorescent quantitation.Octanol-treatment group and DMSO vehicle control group were done at the point of the peak of permeability of BBB.Octanol,the specific blocker for gap junctions(GJ)was used in an intervention study.To compare the amount of EB with the same point of groups,the influence of octanol on BBB permeability was investigated.Results At 3 h of reperfusion after cerebral ischemia for 2 h,the permeability of BBB began to increase,reached the peak at 24 h of reperfusion and was still elevated at 72 h.The Cx43 expression formed into bigger plague and remained linear disposition in the penumbra after reperfusion subsequent to cerebral ischemia.Octanol group was done at 24 h of reperfusion after cerebral ischemia.The amount of EB of octanol group((4.924?0.296)?g/g)was significantly lower than that of corresponding operation control group(5.543?0.506)?g/g.Conclusions (1)Cx43 expression is concentrated around vessels in brain.The Cx43 forms into bigger plague and the function maybe strengthens after reperfusion.Gap junction might aggravate the disruption of BBB.(2) Octanol,the specific blocker of gap junctions,could effectively prevent the permeability of BBB from increasing and has a protective effect on BBB.
