Objective To evaluate the effect of digital subtraction angiography and transcatheter embolization for gastrointestinal hemorrhage.Methods Twenty patients with gastrointestinal hemorrhage received celiac arteries,superior mesenteric arteries and inferior mesenteric arteries angiography. Superselective angiography were performed when the arteries were suspicious by clinic or angiogrraphy.Ten patients with definite diagnosis and manifestation of hemorrhagic arteries by angiography were embolized after superseleetive catheterization with gelfoam particles,gelfoam particles and coils,polyvinyl alcohol particles. Results The positive signs were observed in 13 cases.The DSA features including contrast medium accumulation in the gastrointestinal tract outside vascular,aneurysm,tumorous vascularization and staining, artery affect and local vasospasm.The bleedings were stopped immediately in 8 patients.No rebleeding and intestinal ischaemia or necrosis were observed in 30 days.One patient died in the second day after embolization from multiple organ failure.Rebleeding occurred 3 days after embolization in another patient, and was recovered after surgical operation.Conclusion DSA is more effective for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal vascular malformation and tumors complicating acute bleeding.Transcatheter embolization is effective and safe to control the hemorrhage.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression pattern of caspase-3 and HCLS1-associated protein X-1 (HAX-1) at different time after cerebral contusion in rat, and explore the new method for estimating the injury interval. METHODS: The cerebral contusion model was established using adult SD male rats. Then the rats were randomly allocated into 8 groups: 2 h, 6 h, 12 h, 1 d, 3 d, and 7 d after cerebral contusion, sham-operation and normal control. Expression of caspase-3 and HAX-1 protein after cerebral contusion in rat was detected by Western blotting. Laser scanning confocal microscope was used to observe the number of HAX-1 positive cells and TUNEL-stained cells after cerebral contusion. RESULTS: The expression of caspase-3 increased parallelly with the time after cerebral contusion and reached the peak value on 3 d. The expression of caspase-3 decreased gradually and still maintained a high level expression on 7 d (P < 0.05). The expression of HAX-1 positive cell went up after injury, and reached the peak value at 6 h (P < 0.05), then turned down gradually after 12 h and went out of detection after 3 d. The number of TUNEL-stained cells increased obviously at 2 h and reached the peak value on 3 d. The number of TUNEL-stained apoptotic cells decreased gradually and still maintained a high level expression on 7 d (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The expression of caspase-3 and HAX-1 after cerebral contusion has time sequential regularity, which may provide new evidence for forensic diagnosis of cerebral contusion interval.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of allergic rhinitis (AR) and its intervention on disease condition and medications in patients with juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE).

METHODSThe clinical data of 96 children diagnosed with JSLE were collected, and according to the presence or absence of AR or other allergic diseases, they were divided into AR group (n=44), non-AR group (n=20), and non-allergic group (n=32). The children in the AR group were randomly administered with or without intervention (n=22 each). All the children were given standard JSLE treatment. The systemic lupus erythematosus disease active index (SLEDAI) and application of hormones and immunosuppressants were compared between groups.

RESULTSThe AR and non-AR groups had significantly higher SLEDAI scores, daily cumulative doses of glucocorticoids, and number of types of immunosuppressants used than the non-allergic group before treatment (P<0.05), while there were no significant differences between the AR and non-AR groups (P>0.05). After one month of treatment, the AR group with intervention had significantly lower SLEDAI scores and daily cumulative doses of glucocorticoids than the AR group without intervention (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in the application of immunosuppressants between these two groups (P>0.05). After 3 and 6 months of treatment, the AR group with intervention had significantly lower SLEDAI scores, daily cumulative doses of glucocorticoids, and number of types of immunosuppressants than the AR group without intervention (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONSJSLE combined with allergic diseases such as AR has an adverse effect on disease condition and treatment, and the intervention for AR helps with the control of JSLE.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical significance of dynamic changes of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Cr), serum cystatin (Cys C) and urinary protein on renal injury with paraquat poisoning.

METHODSAccording to the clinical manifestation and curative effect, the clinical information was analyzed retrospectively in 35 cases of acute paraquat poisoning, survival after eight weeks as the standard. Poisoning patients were taken a fasting blood 5 ml and the middle of urinary on the 1st day, 3rd day, 7th day, 14th day, 21st day and 8 weeks after the poisoning. Then the levels of serum BUN, Cr, Cys C and urinary protein were detected by automatic biochemistry analyzer. 30 cases healthy subjects were randomly selected as normal control group, and discharged kidney disease and other diseases of urinary system history. The same laboratory subjects have been done.

RESULTSThe level of serum Bun, Cr, Cys C of survival group increased significantly compared with control group within 21 days (P < 0.05). The level of serum BUN, Cr Cys C decreased on the 14th day. The decreased level of serum Cys C was lower than that of serum BUN and Cr. The renal function of 29 cases among 35 cases survival patients recovered on 21st day. The renal function of 31 cases among 35 cases survival patients recovered 8 weeks late. The positive rate of urinary protein of survival patients was high in the early intoxication (76.9%).

CONCLUSIONSerum Cys C is sensitive indicator to reveal the kidney injury on paraquat poisoning patients and have higher value of clinical applications in the diagnosis of the kidney injury of paraquat poisoning, which sensitivity is higher than serum BUN and Cr. The kidney injury caused by paraquat poisoning is reversible.
