Objective To evaluate the effect of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) on myocardial damage in severely burned rabbits.Methods Eighteen healthy adult rabbits,weighing 2.0-2.5 kg,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),burn group (B group) and AHH group.Rabbits were subjected to 3rd degree burn covering 40％ of the total body surface area.After the model was established,6％ hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 was infused intravenously,and the target Hct was 25％ in AHH group.Before AHH (To) and at 2,4 and 8 h after AHH (T1-3),left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP),left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP),+dp/dtmax and-dp/dtmax were recorded,and blood samples from femoral veins were taken to determine the concentration of serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI) by ELISA.The rabbits were sacrificed at T3,and myocardial specimens were removed for microscopic examination of pathological changes with light microscope.Results Compared with group C,the serum cTnI concentration and LVEDP were significantly increased,LVSP and +dp/dtmaxwere decreased at T1-3 in B and AHH groups,and-dp/dtmax at T1-3 in group B and-dp/dtmax at T3 in group AHH were decreased.Compared with group B,LVSP,+dp/dtmax and-dp/dtm,x were significantly increased at T1-3,and no significant change was found in serum cTnI concentration and LVEDP in group AHH.There was no significant difference in the pathological changes between group B and group AHH.Conclusion AHH can not aggravate the early myocardial damage in severely burned rabbits.

Objective To investigate the effects of special anticoagulation method of hybrid coronary revascularization procedure on postoperative bleeding and clinical outcomes.Methods One hundred and forty-one ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ consecutive patients,aged 35-82 yr,weighing 45-105 kg,undergoing one-stop hybrid coronary revascularization procedure from June 2007 to January 2011 in Fuwai cardiovascular hospital were enrolled and served as Hybrid group.Using propensity score methodology,these patients were matched with another 141 patients who had undergone off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB group) during the same period,selecting from the surgical database.These ASAⅡ or Ⅲ 141 patients,aged 43-80 yr,weighing 47-110 kg,who underwent OPCAB,were served as control subjects.In group Hybrid,the left internal mammary artery was isolated and then 100-120 U/kg heparin was administrated to maintain activated clotting time between 250-300 s,and additional heparin was given if needed.Protamine 1 mg/kg was used to reverse the effect of heparin after anastomosis between left internal mammary artery and left anterior descending branch.Before stent implantation,6000-8000 U heparin and 300 mg clopidogrel were administrated.Activated clotting time was maintained between 200-250 s until the end of operation.Clopidogrel 75 mg/d was taken for at least 12 months after operation.The volume of postoperative chest tube drainage,mechanical ventilation time,length of stay in intensive care unit,postoperative transfusion of allogeneic blood,re-intubation,myocardial damage,acute kidney injury,atelectasis,hydrothorax and thromboembolism were recorded.Results No thromboembolism was observed within the stent during stay in hospital after operation in patients.The volume of chest tube drainage was significantly less,mechanical ventilation time and length of stay in intensive care unit were shorter,the incidence of atelectasis and hydrothorax and transfusion of allogeneic blood requirement were lower in Hybrid group than in OPCAB group (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidences of re-intubation,myocardio damage,and acute kidney injury between the two groups (P ＞0.05).Conclusion Special anticoagulation method of hybrid coronary revascularization procedure does not increase postoperative bleeding and has a better clinical outcomes during the early period.

The clinical data of 42 patients with impacted upper-ureteral calculi undergoing retroperitoneal laparoscopicureterolithotomy(RPLU)from January 2008toDecember 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.RPLU was successfully performed in 40 cases,and simultaneous laparoscopic electrocoagulation ablation was also performed in 11 cases complicated with ureteral inflammatory polyps.No massive bleeding occurred during the operations.The stone-free rate 3 d after operation was 100％,and no stone left as reviewed by kidney ureter bladder X-ray (KUB) and B-ultrasonography.During the follow-up of 3 to 24 months (mean 11 months),40 cases showed no stone recurrence and no ureteral stricture in KUB and B-ultrasonography.The hydronephrosis of all RPLU patients relieved.Results indicate that RPLU is a safe and effective minimally invasive operation for treatment of impacted upper-ureteral calculi.

AIM:To evaluate the relationship between RUNX3,cyclin E,P21,biological features and survival in gastric cancer patients.METHODS:RUNX3 was examined using immunohistochemical staining.Cyclin E and P21 were analyzed by flow cytometry.Survival was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier survival curves.RESULTS:The positive-expression rate of RUNX3,cyclin E and P21 in tumor tissue from 56 patients with gastric cancer were 44.6%,64.3% and 32.1%,respectively.RUNX3 expression was correlated with lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis(P0.05).Using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and the Log-rank test,there was correlation between RUNX3,cyclin E and survival(P0.05).CONCLUSION:RUNX3 may be related with tumorigenesis and tumor progression by affecting P21 expression.The detection of RUNX3 and cyclin E may be helpful in evaluating the clinicopathological parameters and prognosis in gastric carcinoma patients.

One hundred and fifty patients with impacted upper-ureteral calculi were treated with ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL group,n =58),percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL group,n =42) or retroperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy (RPLU group,n =50) from April 2011 to August 2015.The operative time,length of postoperative hospital stay,stone-free rate and the incidence of postoperative complications were observed and compared among three groups.The stone-free rate of URSL group one month after surgery was 77％,which was significantly lower than PCNL (95％) and RPLU groups (100％) (P ＜ 0.05).But the operative time and length of postoperative hospital stay of URSL group [(37.2 ± 5.6)min,(3.9-±0.8)d] were significantly shorter than PCNL group[(75.2 ±6.7) min,(7.9 ±0.9))d] and RPLU group [(65.3 ± 6.1) min,(8.7 ± 0.9) d] (all P ＜ 0.05).The postoperative complication rates of three groups were 8％,10％ and 10％,respectively.
