Objective:To investigate the curative effect and safety of slow continuous ultrafiltration(SCUF) treatment on congestive refractory heart failure with renal failure, and to investigate the correlation between fluid balance and the postoperative complications.Methods:Thirty patients with congestive refractory heart failure with renal failure were chosen to receive slow continuous ultrafiltration treatment after deep vein catheterization, blood flow volume being 100-150 ml/min and therapy time being 24h. PiCCO was used to monitor the hemodynamic parameters, along with the change of blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, heart beat and electrolyte.Results: After the slow continuous ultrafiltration treatment, the hemodynamic parameters of all patients showed obvious improvements, with better results on cardiac function and electrolyte balance. All the patients patients developed cardiopulmonary complications postoperatively have a larger total fluid balance of the first two days postoperatively than those without complications.Conclusion:SCUF have therapeutic effect and safety for treating congestive refractory heart failure with renal failure, and the status of the fluid balance can be a predictor of the postoperative morbidity and mortality.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy ( DC) is an independent complication of diabetes mellitus accompanied with cardiac metabolic imbalances ( increase of fatty acids and reduction of glucose) ,which would impair cardiac function and structure seriously. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors ( PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily,and they could transcriptionally regulate energy metabolism and function. PPARs also play an important role in regulating metabolism in DC heart,and directly or indirectly affect cardiac function and structure.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of aerosol inhalation recombinant human interferon α1b in the treat-ment of bronchiolitis in children. METHODS:60 children with bronchiolitis were randomly divided into low-dose group,high-dose group and control group. All children were given tracheal suctioning,phlegm dispersing and other symptomatic treatment. Based on it,low-dose group was given recombinant human interferon α1b 1-2 μg/(kg·times),adding into 3 ml 0.9% Sodium chloride injec-tion,compression aerosol inhalation,twice a day;high-dose group was given recombinant human interferon α1b 3-4 μg/(kg·times), adding into 3 ml 0.9% Sodium chloride injection,compression aerosol inhalation,twice a day;control group was given ribavirin 10-15 mg/(kg·d),adding into 5% Glucose injection at ratio of 1∶1 by intravenous infusion,once a day. The treatment course for all groups was 5-7 d. Clinical efficacy,disappearance time of cough,respite,rale and three depressions,hospitalization time and incidence of adverse reactions in all groups were observed. RESULTS:Disappearance time of cough,respite,rale and three depres-sions and hospitalization time in high-dose group were significantly shorter than low-dose group and low-dose group shorter than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). Total effective rate in high-dose group was significantly high-er than low-dose group and low-dose group higher than control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no obvious adverse reactions during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Based on conventional treatment,both efficacy and safety of aerosol inhalation recombinant human interferonα1b in the treatment of bronchiolitis in children are good.

Objective To evaluate the clinical features and key points in treatment of ovarian torsion in children. Methods The clinical data of 64 children with ovarian torsion, hospitalized in our hospital from January 2005 to October 2012, were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical manifestations in children of all ages were summarized. The anal examina-tion, B ultrasound examination, CT examination were used for the early diagnosis of ovarian torsion. All children were per-formed laparoscopic surgical exploration. All children were found the typical lower abdominal cramps. The B ultrasound and CT examination showed non-homogeneous mass in pelvic, which suggested the early diagnosis of ovarian torsion. The detec-tion rate of anal examination reached 70.3%(45/64). Results All patients were performed laparoscopic surgical explora-tion. Five patients were treated with ovariectomy. The rest were treated conservatively. The postoperative follow-up was good. Conclusion Ovarian torsion in children was likely to be misdiagnosed. Doppler, CT, anal examination and laparo-scopic operation were important for the early diagnosis and treatment of ovarian torsion.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of caspase 3 in HMME-induced apoptosis in hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (HSFs).MethodsFibroblasts were obtained from 10 patients with untreated hypertrophic scar,and subjected to a primary culture.After 4 to 6 passages of culture,the HSFs were divided into 3 groups to remain untreated(control group),be treated with HMME followed by photodynamic therapy (HMME-PDT group),or the combination of HMME and Z-DEVD-FMK followed by photodynamic therapy (caspase 3 inhibitor group).At 12 hours after the therapy,HSFs were collected and immunofluorescence microscopy was used to observe the fluorescence intensity of caspase 3 after staining with fluorescein isocyanate (FITC) and popodium iodide (PI),flow cytometry was performed to determine the percentage of caspase 3-positive HSFs and apoptosis rate in HSFs after single staining with FITC and PI respectively.Results The fluorescence intensity of caspase 3 was weak in the control group and caspase 3 inhibitor group,but was strong in the HMME-PDT group.An increased percentage of caspase 3-positive HSFs was noted in the HMMEPDT group compared with the control group and caspase 3 inhibitor group(30.86% ± 1.21% vs.3.12% ±0.28% and 2.46% ± 0.18%,t =19.92,21.76,both P < 0.05).The apoptosis rate in HSFs was significantly higher in the HMME-PDT group and caspase 3 inhibitor group than in the control group(30.54% ± 3.78% and 10.46% ± 2.15% vs.2.45% ± 0.22%,t =35.90,27.97,both P< 0.05),and higher in the HMME-PDT group than in the caspase 3 inhibitor group.ConclusionsThe apoptosis in HSFs induced by HMME-PDT is closely related to the activation of caspase 3,while caspase 3 seems to be dispensable for the apoptosis.

This study was aimed to compare and investigate protective effects of metformin and rosiglitazone on cardiac dysfunction in experimental diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC) model rats. The experimental DC rat model was induced by feeding high calorie diet plus single intraperitoneal injection of small dosage of streptozotocin (STZ). Then, intragastric administration of metformin (140 mg·kg-1) or rosiglitazone(2 mg·kg-1) was given to DC rats for consecutive 6 weeks. Parameters of general signs, eating amount, blood sugar, blood lipids, heart function, heart structure and lipometabolism of myocardial tissues were measured. The results showed that both metformin and rosiglitazone can obviously improve the myocardial injury of DC model rats and reduce the CK value (P < 0.01). Metformin can obviously increase the cardiac output of DC model rats (P < 0.01). Rosiglitazone can improve the maximum rate of myocardial contraction and diastole of the model rat's left ventricle (P < 0.05). Both metformin and rosiglitazone can decrease interventricular septal thickness (IST) value (P < 0.01). Metformin can obviously im-prove general signs of DC rats, inhibit body weight loss and reduce water intake (P < 0.05). Metformin can obvi-ously reduce the blood sugar level (FBG, GSP, HbA1c and FMN) of DC rats (P < 0.05, or P < 0.01) as well as the concentration of TG (P < 0.01). Rosiglitazone can reduce the concentration of FBG and HbA1c (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, rosiglitazone can significantly reduce the concentration of TG and LDL as well as obviously increase the myocardial FA-β-oxidase (P < 0.05). It was concluded that both metformin and rosiglitazone can recover the cardiac dysfunction and myocardial injury of DC rats on certain level. Metformin showed more effects on eating amount and body weight improvements of DC rats.
