Objective To evaluate the operative technique, perioperative management and outcomes of bilateral lung transplantation for idiopathic pulmonary artery hypertension. Methods There were 2 cases of idiopathic pulmonary hypertension subject to bilateral sequential lung transplantation with ECMO support (16, 17 years old, respectively). The pulmonary artery pressure was 10/70 and 148/72 mm Hg respectively. The heart function was NYHA Ⅳ, the operative procedure was right lung first, then left lung, and the cold ischemia time was 230 min/430 min and 185 min/300 min respectively. The ECMO support time was 550 min and 450 min respectively. The blood loss during the operation was 3000 and 1200 ml, respectively. Resuits The ECMO was withdrawn 16 and 13 h postoperation respectively. There was unstable hemadynamics and acute left heart failure on the 3rd and 4th day after the operation. The patients were treated with ventilate support and tracheotomy on 3rd and 6th day respectively. Additionally, the patients were given cardiotonic, dieresis and the ventilation was withdrawn on 33rd and 12th day after the operation respectively. They were discharged from the hospital on 93rd and 32nd day after the operation. The heart function both reached NYHA I, two cases were followed up for 25 and 10 months respectively.Both of them had an excellent quality life. Conclusion Bilateral lung transplantation is effective for end-stage idiopathic pulmonary artery hypertension even with slight right ventricular dysfunction with satisfactory short-term outcome. A limited operative time, an ECMO support for heart and lung during the peri-operative period and a perfect management for the left ventricular dysfunction after surgery are key roles for the success. Closed follow-up and surveillance are needed for long-term outcomes.

Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of immunosuppression regimens,postoperative complications,dead causes and risk factors of lung transplantation (LTx).Methods The immunosuppression regimens and clinical data of 100 patients with end-stage lung diseases receiving LTx in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed between Sept.2002 to Dec.2010.There were 72 patients subject to single LTx and 28 patients to bilateral LTx,amongst them 61 patients received LTx under circulation support,including 5 cases of cardopulmonary bypass (CPB) support and 56 cases of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support.The immunosuppression regimens including Cyclosporin,mycophemolate Mofeil and corticosteroids were utilized in 53 recipients before the year of 2007,and Cyclosporin was switched to Tacrolimus in 47 patients after 2007.All the patients received Daclizumab or Basiliximab as immunosuppression induction regimens.Results The 1-,2-,3-and 5-year survival rate after LTx was 73.3％,61.6％,53.5％ and 40.7％ respectively.The mean survival time post-transplant in the patients who received Cyclosporin-based regimens and Tacrolimus-based regimens were (36.57 ± 3.44) months and (35.00 ± 2.33) months,repectively,with no significant differences (P＞0.05).The main causes of mortality included primary graft dysfunction (PGD),acute rejection (AR),bronchiolitis obliterans (BOS) and sepsis.The incidence of AR and BOS in Tacrolimus group was significantly lower than that in Cyclosporin grou (P ＜0.05),but the incidence of diabetes mellitus was significantly higher in Tacrolimus group.Analysis of Spearman rank correlation revealed that there was a direct correlation between the incidence of AR and BOS (r =0.340,P＜0.01).The use of circulation support,diagnosis of IPF,postoperative complications such as AR,BOS and infection were associated with decreased survival time postoperatively,in both univariate and multivariate proportional hazards regression models (P＜0.05).Conclusion Cyclosporin-and Tacrolimus-based regimens were both effective immunosuppression strategies postoperatively,Consummate follow-up surveillance and prompt treatment of complications were the key points in prolongation of survival time and improving quality of life after LTx.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of laboratory tests in the renal damage early diagnosis of children with Henoch-Schoalein purpura (HSP) and clinical effect of early intervention.Methods For the 143 HSP patients with normal repeated urine routine test findings,renal function biomarkers including urinary proteins ( immunoglobulin G (IgG),micro-albumin ( MA ),transferrin (TRF),a1 -microglobulin ( α1 -MG),β2-Microglobulin (β2-MG) ) and urinary enzymes ( N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase ( NAG ),γ-glutamyltransferase (y-GT) ) were detected to investigate the details of renal function changes.One hundred and thirty-one HSP patients,who had abnormal laboratory test findings of renal function biomarkers mentioned above,were randomly divided into control group ( n =65 ) and intervention group ( n =66 ),and both groups received comprehensive treatment including cimetidine,loratadine and calcium agents.However,66 patients in intervention group received low-dose heparin via micropump-based continuous intravenous infusion and regular oral diammonium glycyrrhizinate treatment.Sixty-five patients were enrolled in control group,without further treatment.Results Among the 143 patients with normal urine routine examination,131 cases (91.61％ ) had abnormal findings of renal function biomarkers.After therapy either for 2 months or 4 months,urine protein and urine enzymes were lower than before treatment,and the difference was significant (P ＜ 0.01 ).In the control group only β2-MG,NAG,γ-GT3 indexes significantly lowered at the end of 2 months ( P ＜0.01 ),and all parameters were significantly decreased at the end of 4 months ( P ＜0.01 ).Furthermore,Intervention group had lower levels of renal function biomarkers at the end of 2 months or 4 months,as compared with the control group,showing significant difference ( P ＜0.05 or P ＜0.01 ).Urinary IgG,MA,TRF,NAG recovered rapidly in the intervention group after 4 months and almost returned to the normal,but urinary α1-MG,β2-MG,γ-GT recovered slowly and still remained abnormal after 4 months due to the varying severity.After treatment for 4 months,the rate of urine testing abnormalities was higher in the control group than in the intervention group (36.92％ vs 6.10％ ),and the difference was significant (P ＜0.05).Conclusion Combined detection of renal function biomarkers is helpful for early diagnosis of renal damage in HSP patients.Early intervention with heparin and diammonium glycyrrhizinate can prevent kidney damage,delay disease progress.Early diagnosis and early intervention should be emphasized for the treatment strategy of the renal damage of children with HSP.

Objective To estimate the effects of risk factors on early survuval (90 days) after lung transplantation for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).Method We reviewed 49 cases of lung tansplant male patients which suffered from IPF.Two groups were set up according to the early survival.The early outcomes (90 days) were compared between two groups by multiple logistic regression analysis.Result The early survival rate was 81.6％.Multivariate analysis confirmed that mean pulmonary artery pressure and bilateral lung transplantation (BLTx) were risk factors after adjustment for potential confounders.Recipients' age,lung volume reduction on donors,and use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) were not risk factors for early mortality.Conclusion The increased pulmonary artery pressure and BLTx are risk factors for death after lung transplantation in IPF.Preoperative evaluation of mean pulmonary artery pressure and choosing suitable operative method could improve the surgical outcomes of lung transplantation.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of bilateral lobar lung transplantations (LLTx) in thoracic cavity size mismatching patients with end-stage lung diseases and analyze its prognosis.Method Clinical data of 34 patients receiving LLTx in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed between Sept.2002 to Dec.2012.LLTx were performed on 14 male and 20 female patients,with a mean age of 37.0 ± 6.3 years (ranging from 15 to 56 years).Indications for LLTx were idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (n =24),idiopathic pulmonary hypertension (n =2),Eisenmenger syndrome (n =3),bronchiectasis (n =2) and lymphangiomyomatosis (n =3).Amongst them 26 patients received LLTx under extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support and 3 on ECMO as a bridge to transplantation.Twenty-four middle/lower right lobes with left lower LLT,4 bilateral lower LLT,2 bilateral superior LLT and 4 split left lung LLT were performed.Ischemic time was 4.4± 1.2 h for the first lobe and 6.3 ± 1.4 h for the second.Result The mortality in postoperative prophase (30 days) was 23.5％.The 1-,2-,3-and 5-year survival rate after LLTx was 70.9％,60.8％,50.6％ and 36.2％ respectively.The main causes of mortality included primary graft dysfunction,acute rejection,multiple organ failure,bronchiolitis obliterans and sepsis.Lung function test was performed on 23 cases after transplantation and forced expiratory volume in first second,maximal voluntary ventilation accounting for the predicted value was (74.23 ± 4.86)％ and (72.0 ± 3.64)％,respectively.Conclusion This study demonstrates that for thoracic cavity size mismatching patients,LLTx are safe and effective in the treatment of end-stage lung diseases,which can ameliorate the lung function and prognosis.

Objective To determine the changes of heart structure and function in early stage after lung transplant and to study the relationship between decreased pulmonary artery pressure and changes of heart structure and function.Methods 45 cases of lung transplant recipients were included in the study,their preoperative and postoperative echocardiography data were reviewed,and the postoperative early changes of cardiac structure and function were analysed.Then,the Pearson correlation analysis was used to compare the relationships between the decrease of pulmonary artery pressure and the changes of cardiac structure and function.Results After lung transplant,pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP) decreased significantly [(62.3 ± 27.2) vs (36.20 ± 7.8)mm Hg,P ＜0.01],and right ventricular dimensions zoomed down,tricuspid valve and pulmonary valve regurgitation reduced,left atrial diameter (LAD) and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDD) were enlarged,stroke volume (SV) increased [(43.85 ± 14.78) vs (58.68 ± 13.85)],but left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was decreased [(69.31 ± 7.50)％ vs (62.82 ± 8.12) ％],those differences above were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05) compared with preoperative echocardiography date.Pearson linear correlation analysis show that after lung transplantation the more decreased PASP,the more increased LAD and LVDD,and the more decreased LVEF (P ＜0.05).Conclusions In early stage after lung transplant,the structure of right ventricular was quickly normalized,the function of right ventricular improved,LAD enlarged,SV increased,but left ventricular function reduced,there were a linear correlation between those changes and PASP reduced.Echocardiography has good reference value for early lung transplant patient.

Objective To observe the effects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) on coagulation during lung trangplantation.Method Forty cases of end stage lung diseases received bilateral sequential single lung transplantation during July 2007 and Mar.2012.The patients were divided into two groups in terms of ECMO.ECMO was applied before lung transplantation if needed.The amount of bleeding during surgery was recorded.The venous blood samples were collected during and after operation for the measurements of the following parameters:activated whole blood clot time (ACT),prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),thrombin time (TT) and plasma fibrinogen (Fg).Result The coagulation and the amount of bleeding showed no significant difference between the two groups.Wound infection occurred in 2 patients where the ECMO tube was inserted and femoral arterial thrombosis in one patient.All of the three patients were cured and discharged.Conclusion ECMO didn't cause excessive bleeding or coagulation dysfunction during lung transplantation,yet it maybe increase the occurrence of local thrombosis.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of low dose dopamine combined with phentolamine in the treatment of primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) with edema. Methods Retrospective control studies were performed in 155 patients of PNS with edema, who received comprehensive treatment with small dose dopamine combined with phentolamine (group A). Patients treated with furosemide infusion were recruited as control (group B). Results The urinary output, urinary sodium increased after therapy in group A, showing significant differences (P ＜ 0. 01). But urinary potassium excretion, serum sodium and potassium showed no significant difference after therapy in group A. The urinary output, urinary sodium and potassium excretion increased and the serum sodium and potassium decreased after therapy in group B, all showing significant differences between before and after treatment (P ＜0. 01). The edema relief rate,urinary output, urinary sodium excretion, serum sodium and potassium in group A was significantly higher whereas urinary potassium excretion were significantly lower than those of group B(P ＜0. 01). The rate of drug adverse reaction in group A was significantly lower than that of group B. Conclusion Low dose dopamine combined with phentolamine in PNS with edema is safe and effective,which may be a substitute of diuretic like furosemide in the treatment of edema of patients with different blood volume.
