Objective Ischemic preconditioning and postconditioning can provide certain protection for myocardium .The ar-ticle was designed to observe the protective effect of salidroside on myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury ( MIRI) and explore its mech-anisms. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups with 6 rats for each: sham operation group (S group), ischemia-reperfusion group(I/R group), salidroside preventive group(salidroside treatment followed by ischemia-reperfusion), salidroside treat-ment group (ischemia-reperfusion followed by salidroside treatment ), salidroside preventive+LY group(LY294002 preventive group) and salidroside treatment+LY group(LY294002 treatment group).Salidroside was administered once a day for three days before mod-elling in both salidroside preventive group and LY 294002 preventive group;while salidroside was given immediately after the reperfu-sion in both salidroside treatment group and LY 294002 treatment group .The same volume of NS was administered only to the rats in S group and I/R group.The PI3K inhibitor(LY294002) was given additionally 35 mins before LAD ligation in both LY294002 preventive group and LY294002 treatment group .All injections were given intraperitoneally .Akt, p-Akt, GSK-3βand p-GSK-3βin myocardium were examined with immunocytochemical method in all groups .The protein expression and phosphorrylation status of Akt /GSK-3βwere determined by western blot. Results The levels of Akt/GSK-3βin myocardium of S group(0.246 ±0.002), I/R group(0.457 ± 0.012), LY294002 preventive group(0.303 ±0.005), LY294002 treatment group(0.361 ±0.019) decreased significantly in com-parison to those of salidroside preventive group (0.857 ±0.014) and salidroside treatment group(0.683 ±0.009)(P<0.05).The levels of p-GSK-3β/GSK-3βin myocardium of S group (0.137 ±0.004), I/R group(0.380 ±0.026), LY294002 preventive group(0.148 ± 0.013), LY294002 treatment group(0.267 ±0.050) also decreased significantly in comparison to those of salidroside preventive group (0.944 ±0.045) and salidroside treatment group (0.895 ±0.043) (P<0.05).As to the comparison between salidroside preventive group and salidroside treatment group , there was no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion The result indicates that salidro-side protects myocardium against MIRI in rats .The cardioprotective effect might be associated with the increased protein expression and the phosphorylation rate of Akt/GSK-3β.

Objective To investigate the value of MSCT in assessing bowel ischemia of small-bowel obstruction .Methods CT images and electronic medical records of 40 patients with small-bowel obstruction were retrospectively evaluated.Patients were treated by surgery.The CT signs of bowel ischemia were recorded.Relationship between CT signs and bowel ischemia were tested by Fisher exact andχ2 test.Sensitivity and specificity of MSCT for ischemia were also assessed.Results Bowel ischemia was confirmed at surgery and/or pathological examination in 21 of 40 patients.Diminished enhancement after contrast agent injection was the most common sign in bowel ischemia patients.The signs of increased bowel-wall attenuation on non enhanced images and diminished enhancement after contrast agent injection were significantly associated with ischemia (P <0.000 1).The signs of increased bowel-wall attenuation on non enhanced images and pneumatosis intestinalis had high sensitivity(100%).The sign of diminished enhancement after contrast agent injection had high sensitivity(95.2%)and specificity(94.7%).Conclusion MSCT is accurate in assessing bowel ischemia of small-bowel obstruction, and improves the timeliness and diagnosis for this disease.

Objective To explore the protection effects of the reduced form of nicotinamide-adenine denucleotid(NADH) on cardiac fibroblasts apoptosis induced by hydrazine in vitro.Methods Cardiac fibroblasts isolated from neonate rats were divided into four groups.In NADH pretreatment before hydrazine treatment group,the cardiac fibroblasts were cultured first in the medium containing 400?g/ml NADH for 2 hours,and then cultured in the medium containing 400?g/ml NADH plus 2mmol/L hydrazine for 72 hours;in hydrazine treatment group,the cardiac fibroblasts were cultured first in normal medium containing 400?g/ml NADH for 2 hours and then cultured in the medium containing 2mmol/L hydrazine for 72 hours;in control group,the cardiac fibroblasts were cultured only in normal medium for 72 hours;and in NADH pretreatment control group,the cardiac fibroblasts were cultured in medium containing 400?g/ml NADH for 72 hours.After the treatments mentioned above,the changes in nuclear of apoptotic cardiac fibroblasts as stained by Hoechst33258 were observed under fluorescence microscope,the apoptotic and necrosis rates of cardiac fibroblasts stained by AnnexinⅤ/PI were assayed by flow cytometry,the mitochondria membrane potential of cells stained by rhodamine123 was also assayed by flow cytometry.Results Hydrazine could induce apoptosis of the cardiac fibroblasts.After NADH pretreatment,the number of apoptotic cardiac fibroblasts with pyknosis of nuclear was lowered,the rates of apoptosis and necrosis decreased,and the mitochondria membrane potential of cells was elevated.Conclusion NADH pretreatment could reduce the apoptosis induced by hydrazine by improving the function of mitochondria.

Objective To compare the curative effect between arthroscopic and open retrograde intramedullary interlocking nails in the treatment of femoral supracondylar fracture. Methods A total of 46 patients with femoral supracondylar fracture underwent the treatment by either arthroscopic (19 patients, Group A) or open (27 patients, Group B) retrograde intramedullary interlocking nails. Results The operation time, surgical blood loss and bone union time in the Group A were less than those in the Group B ( t =-4 193, -21 517 and -4 055, respectively; P =0 000). Follow-up for (10 3?3 6) months in the 46 patients revealed the results of therapy were, according to the Kolmert criteria, excellent in 15, good in 3, fair in 1 in the Group A while excellent in 7, good in 14, fair in 4 and poor in 2 in the Group B, without statistically significances between the two groups in the “good” or “excellent” rates (94 7% vs. 77 8%; ? 2 =1 345, P =0 246). Conclusions Use of arthroscopic retrograde intramedullary interlocking nails has advantages of shorter operating time, less blood loss and quicker bone union, benefiting the recovery of knee joint functions.

Objective To establish a matrine delivery system in vitreous is very important for the dynamic treatment of proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR) . Present study was to evaluate the efficacy of matrine polyactic acid microsphere(MAT-PLA-MS) in prevention of PVR. Methods The suspension of cultured fibroblasts was injected into vitreous cavity of 30 healthy adult New Zealand albino rabbits to induce PVR. Then the experimental rabbits were divided into 3 groups and 10 rabbits for each. The animals received intravitreal injection of 0.3 mL MAT-PLA-MS(4 mg) matrine in MAT-PLA-MS group. Free matrine normal sodium solution 0.3 mL(containing 2mg matrine) was injected in vitreous cavity in free matrine group. 0. 3 mL normal saline solution was injected into the vitreous of the left eyes and the equivalent volume of blank polyaetic acid microsphere(blank-PLA-MS) into the right eyes in control group. The changes of cornea, aqueous humor, lens, vitreous and fundus were examined and recorded by slit lamp biomicroscope, indirect ophthalmoscope, fundus color camera and B ultrasonogram on the 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th and 35th day following injection of drug. The inhibition effect of matrine on PVR was evaluated according to Ryan' s grading criteria of PVR. Results On the 14th days after implantation of MAT-PLA-MS, the rate of retinal detachment was 60%, 10%, 5% and 60% in normal saline group, free matrine group, MAT-PLA-MS group and blank-PLA-MS group respectively. Statistically significant difference was found among normal saline group, blank-PLA-MS group, MAT-PLA-MS group and free matrine group(P ＜0. 05). On the 21st day after injection of fibroblasts, the morbidity of retinal detachment was 80%, 30%, 10% and 80% in normal saline group, free matrine group, MAT-PLA-MS group and blank-PLA-MS group respectively, showing a significant difference among different groups. On the 28th day, the incidence rate of retinal detachment was 90%, 50%, 15% and 90% respectively, presenting statistical difference among various groups (P ＜ 0. 05) as well as between free matrine group and MAT-PLA-MS group (P＜0. 05). On the 35th day, considerably difference also was seen in the morbidity of retinal detachment among various groups (90%, 60%, 15% and 90% respectively) (P＜0.05). Conclusion Implantation of MAT-PLA-M S into vitreous cavity can effectively inhibit the development of PVR induced by fibroblasts in rabbit model.

AIM:To observe the protective effect of nicorandil on myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in patients undergoing valve replacement.METHODS:Sixty patients undergoing valve repalacement were randomly divided into 3 groups:control(Ⅰ)group,nicorandil delayed precondictioning(Ⅱ)group and nicorandil preconditioning(Ⅲ)group.20 mg nicorandil was given i.v.24 h before operation in group Ⅱ,whereas in group Ⅲ,20 mg nicorandil was given i.v.after induction of anesthesia.Blood samples were taken from coronary venous for determination of cTnI,TNF-?,IL-6 levels at aortic clamping(T0),15 min(T1),30 min(T2),60 min(T3),90 min(T4)after aortic declamping.Right atria myocardium tissue were taken at T0 and T2 to observe the histopathological changes with electron microscopy.RESULTS:The levels of cTnI,TNF-?and IL-6 in group Ⅱand Ⅲ were significantly lower than those in group I.Myocardium injury was obviously lighter in groupⅡand Ⅲ than that in group Ⅰ,whereas the levels of cTnI,TNF-?,IL-6 and myocardium injury were lower in group Ⅱ than those in group Ⅲ.CONCLUSION:Nicorandil is effcetive in decreasing myocardial ischemia repefusion injury in patients undergoing valve replacement,The protective effect of nicorandil delayed preconditioning is more obvious than precondictioning.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods Clinical data of one case of PTLD,including clinical manifestations,diagnosis and treatment,were retrospectively analyzed.And the related literatures were reviewed.Results From January 2007 to November 2012,one case developed PTLD among 196 patients who were followed up after HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University.The incidence of PTLD was 0.5％.Clinical manifestations of the patient were not typical,including frequent fever,multiple lymphadenopathy and multiple pulmonary nodules.The patient was diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (B-DLCL) by pathological examination of the swollen lymph node.After withdrawal of immunosuppressants,the temperature returned to normal,and lymphadenopathy and pulmonary nodules disappeared completely.Conclusion PTLD is a severe complication of HSCT with distinctive morphologic and clinical characteristics.The origin of this disease may be associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection and imrnunosuppressive therapy.It needs the pathologic detection to make a definite diagnosis.Several different treatment strategies have been employed,and reduction of immunosuppressive therapy may lead to regression of PTLD.

Objective To investigate the value of renal CT arteriography in the preoperation evaluation of patients with renal tumors.Methods From Jan 2007 to June 2012,372 patients with renal tumors took renal CT arteriography (with Philips Brilliance 16) to evaluate the variations of their renal arteries.We executed plain scan first,then artery phase,venous phase scan and delaying scan by turns after injections of Omnipaque.All images were delivered to imaging workstation and reconstructed to 3D views of renal arteries to supply imageological supports for surgeons.Results Tumors in solitary kidneys were detected in 21 patients,and masses in both kindneys were detected in 4 cases.We collected data of 376 kidneys finally.We found premature branching renal arteries on 46 kidneys (12.2％) and accessory renal arteries on 74 kidneys (19.7％).Double accessory renal arteries were seen on 10 kidneys (2.7％),and there were 84 accessory renal arteries in summary.7 accessory renal arteries (7.2％) came from arteria phrenica and 77 (91.7％) came from abdominal aorta (x2 =65.68,P ＜ 0.01).We found the regions where the accessory renal arteries entered kidneys:65.5％ (55/84) in upper poles,19.0％ (16/84) in central regions and 15.5％ (13/84)in inferior poles.Routine CT scans found 44 variations of renal arteries in 218 cases who underwent surgeries,and then renal CT arteriography found 63 variations in the same cases (20.2％ vs 28.9％,x2 =4.47,P ＜ 0.05).Finally,surgeons found 60 variations of renal artries in operations in the 63 cases with variations found by renal CT arteriography before surgeries.Conclusions There is limitations of routine CT scan (plain scan and with contrast medium) in detection of renal artery variations.Renal CT arteriography can supply reliable supports for establishment of surgical plans for renal tumors.
