Objective To investigate the serum level of NT-pro-BNP in patients with acute ischemic stroke and to determine whether NT-pro-BNP levels were associated with the death within 15 days of stroke onset. Methods Two hundard twenty-six consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke within 48 hours of onset were enrolled in this study. We measured plasma NT-pro-BNP within 72 h and recorded the NIHSS score on admission. Patients were divided into two groups: the deceased group, who died within 15 days, and the survival group. The factors associated with the death within 15 d of stroke onset were investigated by using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results Twenty-four (10.6%) patients died with 15 days of stroke onset. The incidence of atrial fibrillation, cardioembolism and large infarc?tion, the mean ± SD of NIHSS score, age, glucose level and creatinine were significantly higher in the deceased group than in the survival group (P<0.001). On the other hand, the mean ± SD of LVEF, albumin, LDL-C, and total-cholester?ol were significantly lower in the deceased group than in the survival group(P<0.05 ). The median of the plasma NT-pro-BNP level was significantly higher in the deceased group than in the survival group (2598.5 vs. 190.4 pg/mL, P<0.001). The optimal cut-off level, sensitivity, specificity and ROC area of NT-pro-BNP levels to distinguish the de?ceased group from the survival group were 955.2 pg/mL, 83.3%and 82.2%, 0.906, respectively. Binary logistic regression analysis demonstrated that NIHSS score of ≥13 (OR=56.18, 95% CI=9.06 to 348.40, P =0.000) , plasma Lg NT-Pro-BNP level (OR=38.79, 95%CI=6.52 to 230.95, P=0.000) , and the size of infarction (OR=8.73, 95%CI=1.11~68.88, P=0.040) were independent factors associated with the death within acute phase of stroke. Conclusions The plas?ma NT-pro-BNP level can predict the death of stroke patients within 15 days of stroke onset.

Objective: To explore the mechanisms of emodin in protecting intestinal mucosal barrier in rat with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods: Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham-operation group, untreated group, and emodin group. SAP in rats of the untreated group and the emodin group was induced by retrograde pumping of 3.0% sodium cholate to the common bile duct. Specimens were obtained 24 hours after the severe acute pancreatitis was induced. Serum level of leptin, serum activity of amylase and plasma content of endotoxin were measured. Ileum mucosa from ileocecal junction was observed by light microscopy and electron microscopy to measure pathological and ultrastructural changes. Apoptosis of ileum mucosal cells was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling method, and expression of Bax in ileum mucosal cells was measured by immunohistochemical method. Results: Compared with the sham-operation group, there was significant increase in the levels of leptin, endotoxin, the activity of amylase, apoptosis index and Bax expression in the untreated group (P<0.01). Compared with the untreated group, the level of endotoxin, apoptotic index and Bax expression level in the emodin group were significantly reduced (P<0.01) and the leptin level was increased (P<0.05). More severe pathological changes appeared in the untreated group than in the sham-operation group under the light and electron microscopes; meanwhile less severe damage was observed in the emodin group as compared with the untreated group. Conclusion: Emodin can inhibit the apoptosis of intestinal mucosa cells and up-regulate the serum leptin content to protect the intestina1 barrier function and prevent the translocation of bacteria and endotoxin.

Objective To research the experience of cardiac death organ donation based on the transplant coordinator.Methods Survey was made in The Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University,and potential donors,data were collected from March to October,2010.Through defining four concepts:potential DCD donors,effective DCD donor,success ratio of DCD donor,rejection ratio of DCD donors,the DCD work was quantitatively analyzed.Results There were 16 potential DCD donors and 5 effective DCD donors,and the success ratio of DCD donor was 31.3 0％ (5/16).In the 11 failure cases,there were 3 cases (27.3 ％) whose family refused to donate,3 cases (27.3 0％) whose family had no consentaneous opinions on denotation,4 cases (36.4 ％) whose organ quality did not meet the criteria because of delaying time when dealing with various kinds of disputes or coordinating with various departments,and one case (9.1 ％ ) whose donated organ was unqualified.Rejection ratio of DCD donors was 37.5 ％ (6/16).Conclusion We need to do efforts to further improve the potential DCD donors,discovery.Transplantation coordinator plays an important role in human organ donation work,whose communication skills and professional knowledge still need to be further trained.It is not enough to just rely on the medical department and Red Cross,human organ donation work needs the collaborative participation among the administrative department,the traffic department and the department of justice.

Preoperative portal vein embolization(PVE)has become an important tool in the management of selected patients with hepatic cancer before the major hepatic resection is carried out.PVE can redirect the portal flow to the intended future remnant liver tissue in order to induce the hypertrophy of the non-diseased portion of the liver and thereby may reduce the occurrence of complications and shorten the hospitalization days after surgery.This article aims to review the technical and clinical considerations in performing PVE and to discuss the PVE-related practical points,including the relevant anatomy,the access approach,the choosing of embolic agents and the pathophysioiogy of PVE.In addition,the indications and contraindications for performing PVE,the use of combination therapies and the concern for tumor growth after PVE are also discussed.
