Objective To investigate the role of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in liver flbrosis in infants with biliary atresia (BA) and its impact on prognosis. Methods Fourty-six (46) cases of infants with BA undergoing elective Kasai surgery were selected. In the same period, 30 cases of children with choledochal cyst and 17 cases of children with portal vein cavernous transformation were selected. The expressions of HSP70 in liver tissues were detected using immunohistochemical staining. The liver flbrosis in children with BA was detected using Sirius red-saturated picric acid staining. The expressions of HSP70 proteins in different flbrotic liver tissues were detected by using double staining. All postoperative BA infants were followed up and ended at June 30, 2016.Results The proportion of high expression of HSP 70 proteins in BA infants were signiflcantly higher than that in children with choledochal cyst and vein cavernous transformation (P<0.05). Rank correlation analysis showed that the expressions of HSP70 in liver tissues were positively correlated with the degree of liver flbrosis (r=0.861,P<0.05). 15 patients died among 46 cases of BA infants. The survival rate in BA children with mild liver flbrosis was 82.4%, which was signiflcantly higher than 58.6% in the severe group (P<0.05). The survival rate in HSP70 protein low expression group was 85.0%, while in HSP70 protein high expression group was 53.8%. Kaplan-meier survival analysis showed that the median survival time in the HSP70 protein low expression group was (34.0±2.6) months, while in the HSP70 protein high expression group was (18.3±2.2) months, the difference was statistically signiflcant (χx2=4.765,P=0.029).Conclusions The expressions of HSP70 proteins in liver tissues in infants with BA were high and were positively correlated with the degree of hepatic flbrosis. It suggested the possible involvement of HSP70 in the process of liver fibrosis. The upregulated expressions of HSP70 often indicated poor prognosis in children. It could be used as determining biomarker for prognosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate fecal diversion in the management of pelvic fractures associated with perineal injuries.MethodsThis retrospective study involved 27 patients of pelvic fractures associated with perineal injuries during April 2005 to April 2011.There were 23 males and 4 females,and the mean age was 32.9 years old (range,16-62 years old).Fractures type according to Tile classification:4 cases were type A,10 cases were type B,and 13 cases were type C.The pelvic external fixator and fecal diversion were selectively used.Results Of the 27 patients of pelvic fractures associated with perineal injuries,24survived.The overall mortality of pelvic fractures associated with perineal injuries in the present study was 11％.The survived 24 patients were totally reviewed clinically.The mean follow-up time of these patients was 10.9 months (range,4-42 months).Of those patients who underwent early fecal diversion (＜ 48 h),none experienced infectious completions.However,of those underwent non-early (＞48 h) fecal diversion (including those who did not undergo fecal diversion),four patients experienced infectious completions.Fisher's exact test was used to compare the infection rate of these two groups.And the result of Fisher's exact test demonstrated that those patients who underwent early (＜ 48 h) fecal diversion and non-early (＞48 h) fecal diversion (including those who did not undergo fecal diversion).ConclusionStabilization of hemodynamic; selective fecal diversion; early stabilization of pelvic fracture are necessary for the emergency management of pelvic fractures associated with perineal injuries.Rectal injury and severe perineal injury without involvement of rectum should undergo fecal diversion.Early fecal diversion (＜ 48 h) could reduce the infection rate of pelvic fractures associated with perineal injuries.

Objective:The paper is designed to reveal differences in stroke patients'hospitalization costs crea-ted by different socioeconomic factors , health insurance and occupational background , and analyze those differences on health outcome .Methods:18879 cases of hospitalized patients with stroke in five tertiary hospitals from four prov-inces from 2011 to 2014 were included in the database .Descriptive statistics was used to describe patients'hospitali-zation costs and health outcome .Multiple linear regression model and logistic regression were used to evaluate the im-pact of insurance and occupation .Results:After controlling for patients'social characteristics , health risks , premise during hospitalization process and clinical characteristics of patients with free healthcare costs , the socialized medi-cine was charged 19.7% higher than the private ones ( P <0.001 ), the retired people and civil servants were charged 4.2%(P<0.001) and 2.9%(P=0.049) more than farmers.The socialized medicine was also associated with health outcome.The risk of death in patients with free medical care is (OR=4.901) compared with private pa-tients (95%CI 1.652~14.537), and the retired people had increased risk of death compared with farmers (OR=2 .145 , 95%CI 1 .287 ~3 .573 ) .Conclusions: Due to the impact of social background factors , some groups are found to have a higher level of expenses than their counterparts during hospitalization , but the more hospitalization costs are not spent the better the health outcome of stroke was achieved .

Objective To investigate the clinical value of gauze packing for haemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture.Methods Between January 2006 and January 2014,gauze packing was used to treat haemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture in 42 patients consisting of 23 males and the 19 females aged 34.2 years (range,18 to 54 years).AO classification of the fracture was type B1 in 9,B2 in 5,B3 in 3,C1 in 13,C2 in 4,and C3 in 8 patients.All the patients were diagnosed with hypovolemic shock upon admission with the systolic pressure of (75.4 ± 4.3) mmHg and heart rate of (126.5 ± 12.4) beats/ min.Injury severity score (ISS) was (38.7 ± 6.2)points.Anti-shock treatment,internal or external fixation of pelvic ring,and gauze packing were performed immediately to control the hemorrhage following pelvic fracture.Results Systolic pressure was (95.2 ± 4.6) mmHg and mean heart rate was declined to (85.4 ± 13.2)beats/min after pelvis volume control and gauze packing,with significant differences compared to these preoperatively (P ＜ 0.05).Red blood cell transfusion before internal or external fixation and gauze packing was (15.0 ± 2.4) units versus (8.3 ± 1.5) units within the first postoperative 24 hours (P ＜ 0.05).Twenty-four out of the 42 patients underwent temporary abdominal aorta occlusion.Six patients died postoperatively with the death rate of 14％.Mean time of removing the packing gauze was (51.4 ± 10.3) hours (range,24-168 hours).Conclusion Anti-shock treatment with concurrent gauze packing and pelvis volume control is effective to arrest the massive hemorrhage in hemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture.

Objective To investigate the effete of chitosan on rabbit carotid artery internal jugular vein fistula intimal hyperplasia and its regulation on TLR4/NF-κB signaling.Methods A total of 28 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into the control group(n=4),the model group(n=12) and the chitosan group(n=12).Model group and chitosan group rabbits were established respectively carotid artery internal jugular vein fistula models.After AVF surgery,chitosan was smeared on venous blood vessels and anastomosis.After 4,6 and 8 weeks,the rabbits were separately sacrificed and the AVF venous vascular tissues were taken.The pathological changes of AVF venous vascular tissue in each group were observed.The changes of α-SMA were detected by immunohistochemistry method.The mRNA expressions of PCNA and TLR4 in the tissues were measured by Real-time PCR.At the same time,the protein expressions of PCNA,TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB were detected by Western blotting.The experimental data were processed by two-factor analysis of variance in statistics.Results (1) After 4 weeks,vascular intimal was thicked in mdel group.In intimal hyperplasia,α-SMA was staining,and then proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cell was significant.As time increasing,more intimal hyperplasia shown obviously,the expression of α-SMA significantly increased.Compared with model group,chitosan group significantly reduced the degree of intimal hyperplasia,the level of α-SMA was significantly decreased,vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation was also extraordinarily decreased.(2) Compared with control group,the expression levels of PCNA,TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB increased with time.The indices of Chitosan group were markedly higher than control group,but significantly lower than model groups.Conclusion Chitosan can inhibit the proliferation of rabbit VSMCs.The mechanism may be concerned in down regulating TLR4-mediated signaling pathway,reducing the possibility of intimal hyperplasia of rabbit AVF venous blood vessels.

Objective: To investigate the stamina,the role of antioxidant system in severe acute pancreatitis(SAP),and the effect of fish oil treatment in rats.Methods:Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats(SD) were randomly divided into three groups,including SAP group(sodium chloride treatment ) (group NSG,n=12),fish oil treatment group (group FOG,n=12),and control group (group CG,n=12).SAP was induced by intergraded injection of 3.5% sodium tanrocholate to biliopancreatic duct of SD rats in group NSG and FOG.The group NSG rats were treated by subcutaneous injection of sodium chloride,while the group FOG rats were treated by subcutaneous injection of fish oil for 7 days.Then the improved tail suspension test was observed at the first,third,fifth,seventh day.12 rats in each group were respectively sacrificed after 7 day.The activity of serum antioxidant enzymes (MDA,GSH-PH) and the concentration of serum amylase were measured in each group,and the levels of threshold on the area and the total immobility time were measured in each group.The severity of pancreatitis was analyzed according to the histopathological morphology.Results: Compared to group NSG,the severity of pancreatitis was significantly decreased in group FOG.The activity of MDA was significantly increased in group NSG than that in group CG (P<0.01) ,while the activity of MDA in group FOG was decreased than that in group NSG (P<0.05) .The activity of GSH-PH was significantly decreased in group NSG than that in group CG(P<0.01),while the activity of GSH-PH was increased in group GOG than that in group NSG (P<0.05).THE level of threshold on the area was decreased in group NSG than that in group CG(P<0.01),while the level of threshold on the area was increased in group GOG than that in group NSG.(P<0.01) The total immobility time was significantly increased in group NSG than that in group CG(P<0.01),while the total immobility time was decreased in group GOG than that in group NSG(P<0.05).MDA was associated with the level of threshold on the area and the total immobility time.Conclusion: Fish oil has a positive effect on the activity of antioxidant system and behavior character in SAP rats.

Objective To analyze the survival rate of HIV /AIDS patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART)since the implementation of the national Four Free and One Carepolicy against HIV in Hangzhou.Methods Clinical data of 2370 AIDS patients were collected from National AIDS Comprehensive Treatment Information System Treatment Library from 2004 to 2014.The data, including basic information,viral load,CD4 +T lymphocyte counts,starting time of treatment,WHO clinical stage,infection pathways and follow-up were respectively analyzed.Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the survival rate and the factors affecting survival.Results The total follow-up time was 3968.14 person years and 57 patients died in 2370 patients with a mortality rate of 1 .44 /100 person years (57 /3968.14).Kaplan-Meier method showed that the cumulative survival rates of the first,third and fifth year were 98.08%,96.20% and 95.24%,respectively.The overall mortality rate fell from 6.06 /100 person years in 2006 to 1 .44 /100 person years in 2014.The mortality rate of AIDS-related disease declined from 1 .10 /100 person years in 2009 to 0.90 /100 person years in 2014.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the risk of death for patients with CD4 +T 200-349 cells/μL was 0.466 times(95%CI 0.246-0.882)as that for patients with CD4 +T cells <200 /μL.The risk of death was 3.408 times(95%CI 1 .365-8.506)in patients aged≥ 50 years,3.788 times(95%CI 1 .645-8.718)in patients aged 40 to <50 years,and 2.593 times(95%CI 1 .139-5.905)in patients aged 30 to 40 years as that in patients aged <30 years.The mortality risk for patients with baseline WHO stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ was 1 .960 times as patients with WHO stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ (95% CI 1 .117-3.439 ).Conclusions Patients with increased age,low CD4 +T counts and baseline WHO stage Ⅲ or Ⅳ are main risk factors affecting survival rate of HIV /AIDS patients,early antiviral therapy is the key for improving the survival rate of patients.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic carcinoma with acute and chronic pancreatitis as the initial symptoms.Methods The clinical data of 13 patients with pancreatic carcinoma who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University and the Affiliated Central Hospital of Dalian Medical University from January 2003 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.The first symptoms were acute and chronic pancreatitis.Laboratory and imaging examinations were carried out on all the patients,and the treatment plan was designed according to the location and stage of the tumor as well as the patient's wishes.Surgery,radiotherapy,chemotherapy and other symptomatic treatment were selected.All the patients were followed up by telephone interview till July 2014.Results The major symptoms included abdominal pain and lumbodorsal pain (7 patients).Of the 13 patients,1 patient refused to received laboratory examination,and the levels of CA19-9 of the other 12 patients were elevated (the levels of CA19-9 of 11 patients were above 1 × 105 U/L).The levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) of 5 patients were elevated.Thirteen patients received plain or enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT),3 received magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 3 received sonography.The tumors located at the head of the pancreas wcrc observed in 9 patients,tumors located at the neck of the pancreas was observed in 2 patients,and tumors located at the tail of the pancreas were observed in 2 patients.The sizes of the tumors ranged between 1.7 cm × 1.7 cm and 4.9 cm × 4.8 cm.The common bile duct,intrahepatic bile duct and pancreatic duct of 7 patients were dilated.The superior mesenteric vein of 3 patients were invaded by the tumor.The lymph nodes of 4 patients were swollen,and 3 patients had peritoneal effusion.The results of CT confirmed that 2 patients were with cholecystolithiasis,and the results of magnetic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) confirmed that 1 patient had choledocholithiasis.The size of he pancreas of all the patients were increased using ultrasonography,and the main pancreatic ducts of 2 patients were dilated.Ten patients were diagnosed as with advanced pancreatic carcinoma.All the patients were staged by the imaging findings,5 patients belonged to stage Ⅱ and 8 belonged to stage Ⅳ.Two patients underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy,and 1 of them underwent postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy,and the other patient underwent palliative biliary enteric anastomosis and gastrojejunostomy.Two patients were treated by chemotherapy and 1 by radiotherapy in the 10 patients who did not received surgery.The rest 7 patients were treated with symptomatic therapy.The pathological results of the 2 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy were both moderately and poor-differentiated adenocarcinoma,and the size of the tumors were 4.0 cm × 3.0 cm × 2.5 cm and 2.5 cm × 2.0 cm × 1.0 cm.Three patients lost to follow-up among the 13 patients.The survival time of the patients with acute pancreatitis as the initial symptom ranged from 2.0 months to 6.0 months,and the median survival time was 4.5 months.The survival time of the patients with chronic pancreatitis as the initial symptom ranged from 0.5 months to 10.0 months,and the median survival time was 3.0 months.The median survival time of the 4 patients with elevated level of CEA was 3.5 months,and the median time of the 5 patients with normal level of CEA was 5.4 months.All the 10 patients who were followed up died of tumor recurrence and metastasis.Conclusion The clinical presentation of patients with acute and chronic pancreatitis as the initial symptoms is atypical,and it is difficult to achieve early diagnosis.Dynamic monitoring and combined diagnosis with laboratory and imaging examinations will improve the accuracy of diagnosis.Surgery based treatment is the preferred option.
