AIM: To investingate the variety of the function of vascular endothelium in the patients with hypertensive nephropathy and the effect of Huayu Qinli Granule on (Hirudo,Rhizoma Smilacis Glabrae,Herba Leonuri,etc.) it. METHODS: This was a prospective,comparative and single-blind clinical trial.Patients in accord with the diagnosis and TCM differentiation standard were randomly divided into treatment group,united treatment group,blank control group and positive control group.Before the beginning of the trial,all patients were treated by Felodipine to lower their blood pressure to desired value.When the trial began,blank control group were treated only by Felodipine, positive control group were treated by general hypertension pills+captopril,treatment group were treated by Felodipine+Huayu Qinli Granule,united treatment group were treated by Felodipine+Huayu Qinli Granule+captopril.The course of study was for 4 weeks.The levels of urinary microalbumine(ALB),urinary ?_1-microglobulin(?_1-mg),urinary?_2-microglobulin(?_2-mg),serum nitric oxide and plasma endothelin were measured before and after the trial. RESULTS: The results showed both Huayu Qinli Granule and ACEI improved the levels of serum nitric oxide but there was slightly advantage over ACEI;both Huayu Qinli Granule and ACEI improved the levels of plasma endothelin,the improvement of Huayu Qinli Granule was(equal) to ACEI;united treatment group had the remarkable effect on serum nitric oxide and plasma endothelin. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that Huayu Qinli Granule improves the function of vascular endothelium in the patients with hypertensive nephropathy to a certain extent with the sufficiency of the treatment of depressing blood pressure.The effect of Huayu Qinli Granule is similar to that of ACEI.They cooperate with each other but mechanism of them may be different.

Objective To establish an abdominal-trauma-induced uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock (UHS) model, and explore the effect of staged resuscitation. Methods Indwelling catheters were inserted into left ventricle, femoral artery and femoral vein of 50 Sprague-Dawley rats, and then laparotomy was performed. 42 out of the 50 animals were subjected to vascular injury to simulate UHS by infra-renal arterial puncture with 25G needles, and the model was successfully established in 32 rats, for which the animals were divided into 3 groups: control group (n=10), with no resuscitation; hospital-resuscitation group (n=11), resuscitated in early injured stage; and staged-resuscitation group (n=11), resuscitated pre-hospital and then in-hospital. 8 out of the 50 rats, which were not subjected to vascular injury, served as sham-operated group. The mean aortic pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), serum lactic acid, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and creatinine (Cr) were determined, and the volume of blood loss and survival time were recorded. Results The MAP decreased from 94.7mmHg to 28.9mmHg 15min after aortic injury in control group and rose slowly after continuous transfusion in staged-resuscitation group. Similar change was found in CVP. Serum lactic acid, ALT and Cr were increased in control group and hospital-resuscitation group at early injured stage, but the increase was delayed in staged-resuscitation group. The mean survival time in control group, hospital-resuscitation group and staged-resuscitation group were 76, 846 and 2480 min, respectively. The 72 h mortalities of the three groups were 100%, 72.7% and 36.4%, respectively. Conclusion Staged resuscitation which is characterized by slowly continuous transfusion at early aid stage cannot increase the blood pressure and circulating blood volume to normal level in UHS, but can reduce the level of serum lactic acid, ALT and Cr, and dose not increase the blood loss. The survival rate and mean survival time can be increased by this method.

Objective To identify the changes of mesenteric lymph fluid in cases of uncontrolled hemor-rhagic shock (UHS), which is most often occurred in modem trauma and battle injury. The lymph of gut plays an important role during shock and MODS. The objective of this experiment is to identify the change of mesenteric lymph fluid in UHS. Method Thirty-eight SD rats were canulated with PE 50 catheters separately into right carotid artery,left femoral artery and femoral vein. A serf-made steel catheter was inserted into main mesenteric lymph duct and the mesenteric lymph fluid was collected. The rots were divided into three groups: control group (n=10), controlled hemorrhagic shock (CHS) group (n=10) and UHS group (n=10). After the mean blood pressure was dropped to 40 mmHg by exsanguination, hemorrhage was made by amputation of 75% tail in length and let the stump keep open to bleed. The volume of mesenteric lymph fluid was recorded, and the protein and endotoxin in it were examined, too. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Chi-square test. Results The mesenteric lymph fluid was decreasing remarkably during shock until it was below 1/4 of normal. After hemorrhage was controlled, the mesentefic lymph fluid increased slowly. However, it kept decreasing persistently in cases of UHS. So did the protein content. The eudotoxin in lymph fluid increased 2 hours after CHS and one hour after UHS. There was significant difference in endotoxin between CHS and UHS 2 hours after shock (P<0.05). Con-dusions The volume and protein content of mesenteric lymph fluid decreased mare significantly in UHS than that in CHS. And contrarily, the endotoxin in lymph fluid increased more significantly in UHS than that in CHS. The change of the mesenteric lymph fluid may be an important cause of MODS after UHS.
