Objective To explore the clinical therapeutic effects of postoperative intracranial infection in neurosurgery.Methods Between January 2014 and January 2014,50 patients with postoperative intracranial infection in the department of neurosurgery in our hospital were selected in this study.Among the 50 patients,25 patients were treated by intravenous antibiotic therapy,15 patients were treated with intrathecal and intravenous antibiotics treatment,10 cases were treated by intrathecal injection,intravenous antibiotics and lumbar pool catheter drainage way for treatment,and then we observed the clinical therapeutic effect of three groups of patients.Results In 50 patients,37 patients were cured,3 cases had marked effect,8 patients had effect,2 patients had no effect.Conclusion For patients with neurosurgical operations,to maximally reduce the risk of intracranial infection,it is necessary to take antibiotics according to the actual situation of patients,and make different treatment schemes according to the difference of infection.

Objective To assess the effect of immunosuppression conversion from cyclosporine(CsA) to tacrolimus(FK506) on progression of chronic allograft nephropathy(CAN).Methods A retrospective study was performed in 36 cyclosporine treated renal transplant recipients.Patients were included if they were biopsy-proven CAN and they were converted from cyclosporine to tacrolimus due to CAN.The FK506 dose was 1/50 to 1/100 of the cyclosporine's and the dose was adjusted according to the trough level of tacrolimus,body weight of the patient and the situation of CAN.Other immunosuppressive agents kept unchanging.Serum creatinine and FK506 trough level were monitored after conversion.Fasting blood triglyceride,total cholesterol and glucose were determined at baseline and 6th month after conversion to tacrolimus.Results After switching over to FK506 for 6 months,there was a significant improvement in function of renal allograf(P

Objective To study the effect of benzo(a) pyrene on DNA of human embryonic fibroblast under inhibition of DNA repair,and to explore the mechanism of DNA repair involved in the DNA damage induced by xenobiotic chemical carcinogens. Methods DNA damage of human embryonic lung fibroblast (HELF) induced by benzo(a) pyrene was observed when DNA repair was inhibited by treating HELF with arabinosylcytosin(ara-C) to inhibit the activity of polymerase ?/? in the cells. With S9 mixture added as metabolic activation system in vitro,HELF was treated for 2 hours with ara-C at the doses of 0 and 100 ?mol/L combined with-C at the doses of 0,10,20,50 ?mol/L by the 2?4 factor-factorial analysis.Comet assay was used to assess the DNA damage. Results Compared with the control group,the comet rate and Oliver tail moment of groups treated by B(a)P increased significantly (P

Objective To discuss the diagnostic approaches of erectile dysfunction (ED),and to improve the diagnostic level of ED. Methods 186 patients with ED were evaluated by IIEF 5,intracavernous injection,hormonal testing,colour duplex ultrasonography,cavernosography and bulbocavernosus reflex latency,respectively. Results Among these ED patients who were evaluated,186,71,28,45,21 and 17 cases underwent the above mentioned examinations, and 46 patients were diagnosed as psychological ED,6 as arterial ED,15 as venous ED,3 as hormonal ED,3 as neurologic ED,10 as composite ED and 103 unknown cause ED. Conclusions Erectile dysfunction is a highly individualized disease.Diagnostic approaches of erectile dysfunction should be individual patient specific,which can be safe,economical and efficacious to the ED patients.

0.05).Its presence was focal and they coexisted closely with that of the recipient in the biopsy.Conclusion There was no correlation between the percentage of recipient endothelial cells in vascular endothelial cells and the type of graft rejection.

To investigate the change in renal CD11a and myeloperoxidase (MPO) contents and renal function during ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of rat kidney, as well as the role of lymphocyte function associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) played in renal IRI, we utilized a rat model of renal IRI to detect the renal tissue contents of CDlla and MPO and renal functioa The results showed that the levels of CD11a and MPO were very low in normal renal tissue, but increased significantly in ischemia reperfusion. Renal failure was presented in rats with IRI. The levels in the ischemia-60min-reperfusion group were higher than those in the ischemia-30min-reperfusion group in the same time points. Our conclusion is the levels of CD11a and MPO in rat renal tissue increase significantly during renal IRI. LFA-1-mediated leukocyte adherence plays an important role in renal IRI. Up-regulation of CDlla further elucidates the mechanism of relation between IRI and acute rejection: more heavier IRI is, more possible acute rejection would be.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of the severe pulmonary infection in the patients after kidney transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 26 patients with severe pulmonary infection following kidney transplantation were analyzed retrospectively. Results Microorganisms were isolated and identified in 22 patients out of 26 kidney transplantation patients with severe pulmonary infection. The main etiological pathogens according to their frequency and type were: bacteria (15 cases, including Escherichia coli, Aerobacter cloacae, Klebsiella fredlanderi, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, etc.), fungi (12 cases, Fermentum, Blastomyces albicans, Candida tropicalis, Aspergillus, etc.), and cytomegalovirus (10 cases). 46.15% (12/26) of patients were infected with one kind of microorganism, and 53.85% (14/26) of patients were mixed infection. In 73.1% (19/26) of patients the pulmonary infection occurred during 1-6 months after renal transplantation. Among 26 patients, 12 developed ARDS, and 4 patients gave up therapies due to high expenses. With energetic treatment, 18 patients (81.82%) were cured and 4 died. Conclusions Intensive care and active measures should be given in the treatment of severe pulmonary infection after kidney transplantation. Early diagnosis, administration of broad-spectrum and combined use of antibiotics, the early identification of pathogens, enforcement in systemic support, including correction of immunosuppression, the timely use of mechanical ventilation to correct hypoxia, are the key treatment strategies for a successful result.

Objective To study the curative effect of posterior diskoscope discectomy for adolescent lumbar disc herniation.Methods Eleven adolescent patients with lumbar disc herniation were treated with posterior diskoseope discectomy,the Japanese orthopaedic association (JOA) lower back pain score was observed and compared before operation and after operation 3,6,12 months.Results The JOA lower back pain score were (15.45 ± 2.73),(27.18 ± 2.08),(28.18 ± 1.25),(28.54 ± 1.21) scores before operation and after operation 3,6,12 months,there was statistical difference in JOA lower back pain score between before operation and after operation 3,6,12 months (P ＜ 0.01).The patients were followed up for 1-10 years,mean 7.9 years,excellent was in 8 cases,good was in 2 cases,general was in 1 case.Recurrence and iatrogenic lumbar instability were not found.Conclusions The posterior diskoscope discectomy with less trauma,less bleeding,faster recovery,and can achieve the same decompression objective with the traditional open surgical.So posterior diskoscope discectomy can be used as adolescent treatment of lumbar disc herniation.

BACKGROUND: In the healing process of fracture, if the callus tissue around the location of fracture is cleared, the end of fracture is difficult to be integrated completely, and more or less there would be some bone de fect. We deduce that these callus tissues are the necessary product during the process of bone reparation, which ought to be useful. Concerning this,we observed histological content and the volume of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) with histological analysis and hybridization in situ of the frozen section of these calluses to investigate the effects of callus graft in the healing process of fracture.OBJECTIVE: To understand the salvaging value of bony callus organization around fracture in delayed operation by means of determining histological substances and contents of TGF-β1.DESIGN: Hybridization in situ of the callus tissue and randomized-grouping and controlled experiment.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, the Second Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University, and Department of Orthopaedics, Central Hospital of Taizhou City PARTICHANTS: Totally 51 inpatients who received delayed fracture operations in the Department of Orthopaedics of the Second Hospital of Xi 'an Jiaotong University and Central Hospital of Taizhou City from July 1994 and October 2003 were recruited. In some cases of delayed fracture operation, callus was obtained with the consent of patients, Dig labeled kit was bought from Boehringer Mannheim Corp. CTT GCT GTA CTGTGT GTC CAA, TGF-β1 oligonucleotide probe sequence, was synthe sized by DNA synthesizer. Computer X-ray system was bought from Japan Fuji Corp. METHODS: 2,4,6,8 weeks after fracture, a small amounts of callus was obtained. Frozen section was made from undecalcified callus tissue, and noneisotope Dig labeled hybridization in situ, observe gene expression of TGF-β1 in callus. In the operation, after clearing the bone stump and fas tening the fracture, original bony callus was grafted to the bone defect and around the fracture. Simple callus graft, flank bone graft or both were adopted respectively on patients in delayed operation with follow-up obser vations were given for 1-4 years, with the average of 1 year and 9 months,at outpatient clinic for recheck.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Histological substance and TGF-β1 content of bony callus at different phases of the fracture. ② Effect of different mode of bone graft on the time of fracture healing. RESULTS: Totally 51 cases were treated, and 7 cases were not followed up for death or moving to other areas. Data of the followed-up 44 patients were collected into the stage of result analysis. ① Gene expression of TGF-β1 in bone callus: In the second week after fracture, there were a small amount of fibrous bone callus and comparatively much cartilage bone callus,and TGF-β1 was hypso-expressed in cartilage cells inside the cartilage islet; about four weeks later, TGF-β1 was notably expressed in os teoblasts; about eight weeks later, a host of calluses grew, mainly carti laginea, and the numbers of formed fibroblast, callus, osteoblasts and tra becular bone were increasing. TGF-β1 expression in all kinds of cells dis appeared after six weeks but had a tendency to rise again in bone matrix in the eighth week. ② There were no significant difference of healing time in different modes of bone graft .CONCLUSION: TGF-β1 plays an important role in balancing bone healing, and necessary connections exist between tissue change in bone callus and change in expression of TGF-β1. As callus is a product of recovery and reconstitution of organism, we regard callus graft salvage as a feasible method in reducing pain and damage to patients who need graft.
