There is endothelial hyperpermeability in sepsis,trauma,ischaemia-reperfusion injury,acute respiratory distress syndrome and thrombosis,while an important mechanism underlying this process is increased paracellular leakage of plasma fluid and protein because of cytoskeleton contration under the role of histamine, thrombin,vascular endothelial growth factor and activated neutrophil. Structural changes initiate with agonist-re-ceptor binding,followed by activation of intracellular signalling molecules,then phosphorylate alter the hyperme-ability of cell-cell adhesion. Targeting key signalling molecules that mediate endothelial-junction-cytoskeleton dissociation demonstrates a therapeutic potential to improve vascular barrier function during inflammatory injury.

Objective To observe the TCM syndromes of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with malnutrition. Methods TCM Syndromes Questionnaire of Acute Exacerbation of COPD was formulated with TCM clinical epidemiology methods. Totally 220 cases of hospitalized patients met the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups, 120 cases of malnutrition and 100 cases of non-malnutrition. The clinical data were observed and syndrome elements of malnutrition group and non-malnutrition group were analyzed to discuss the rule of syndromes in acute exacerbation period. Results In addition to respiratory system, the frenquency of symptoms such as weight loss, shortness of breath, easy cold, aversion to wind and cold, poor appetite, abdominal distension, constipation, belching, dizziness and tinnitus, tooth loose and hair loss, soreness and weakness of waist and knees significantly increased in COPD with malnutrition, mainly involving in syndromes of spleen deficiency and incoordination between spleen and stomach. In patients with acute exacerbation of malnutrition COPD, the single syndromes were 36 cases (30%), the composite syndromes were 84 cases (70%). The simple excess syndromes were 38 cases (31.67%), the simple deficiency syndromes were 23 cases (19.17%), and the intermingled deficiency and excess syndromes were 59 cases (49.17%). Conclusion Patients with acute exacerbation of COPD with malnutrition are mainly composite syndromes and the intermingled deficiency and excess syndromes. Spleen deficiency and incoordination between spleen and stomach may be the important pathogenesis of COPD with malnutrition.

BACKGROUND:Denis B thoracolumbar burst fractures are common spinal injury and may be involved in the upper end plate injury. Fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation are used to repair above injury. This scheme can effectively achieve the aim of correcting deformity, but the trabecular bone after crushing cannot be fuly recovered. OBJECTIVE:To observe the repair effect of fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation + artificial bone graft in vertebral body on Denis B thoracolumbar burst fracture, and compare with fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation alone. METHODS:Clinical data of 70 cases of Denis B thoracolumbar burst fractures, who were treated in the Department of Orthopedics, Zhangjiagang Aoyang Hospital from January 2012 to December 2014, were retrospectively analyzed. According to repair scheme, they were equaly divided into two groups. Patients in the control group received fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation. Patients in the observation group received fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation + artificial bone graft in vertebral body. Oswsetry Disability Index, height of anterior border of injured vertebral body, lower back pain visual analogue scale and vertebral kyphosis Cobb’s angle were compared and observed between the two groups before repair, 1 week, 3 and 6 months after repair. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference in Visual Analogue Scale was detected at 1 week, 3 and 6 months after repair between the observation and control groups (P > 0.05). Oswsetry Disability Index was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). No significant difference in the height of anterior border of injured vertebral body was detected between the observation and control groups (P > 0.05). Cobb’s angle was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation + artificial bone graft in vertebral body obtained good repair effects on Denis B thoracolumbar burst fracture, not only effectively corrected Cobb’s angle and the height of anterior border of injured vertebral body, but also helped to restore normal spinal loads by filing bone in the injured vertebral body.
