Objective To create a stable,reliable and cheap rat model of intra-abdominal hypertension(IAH)by simulating the development of secondary IAH after overdose resuscitation for severe hemorrhagic shock.Methods Sixteen adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham group and portal vein stenosis group,with eight rats in each group.Portal vein stenosis group had transabdominal separation of portal vein with constant stenosis,while sham group underwent simple laparotomy and dissection of portal vein.Abdominal binding and hemorrhagic shock by drawing blood through the femoral artery cannulation with mean arterial pressure(MAP)of 40 mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)for two hours were performed in two groups.Then,reinfusion of all autologous blood and continuous infusion of sodium lactate Ringer's solution were performed to induce IAH.Results In the portal vein stenosis group,IAH models were successfully built in all the rats except that one rat died after ligation of portal vein.The success rate of modeling was 87.5%,with total time of(4.68±0.53)hours and total solution infusion of(597.33±75.03)ml/kg.No successful modeling was obtained in the sham group.Conclusion High success rate and good reproducibility of IAH models can be achieved by fluid resuscitation after constant portal vein stenosis,abdominal binding and hemorrhagic shock with mean MAP of 40 mm Hg for two hours.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of patients with malignant pleural effusion treated with injecting endostar combined with platinum complexes into pleural cavity.Methods Cochrane systematic review methods were used in the data selection,and data were selected from the PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),WanFang,and VIP database to get all clinical controlled trials.The retrieval time was August 2014.The objects of these randomized controlled trials were malignant pleural effusion patients.Endostar combination with platinum complexes was used for the experimental group.Platinum complexes alone were used for the control group.The efficacy and adverse effects of two groups were compared.The quality of included trials was evaluated by two reviewers independently.The software RevMan 5.3 was used for meta-analyses.Results Nine trials with 488 patients were included according to the including criterion.All trials were randomized controlled trials,one of them had B level in quality and eight had C level.Meta analysis results were as follows:there was significant difference in overall effective rate (OR =3.52,95% CI =2.37 ~ 5.22),Karnofsky (KPS) score changes rate (OR =2.64,95% CI =1.67 ~ 4.19),between endostar combination with platinum complexes and platinum complexes alone group.The incidences of severe leucopenia (OR =1.0,95% CI =0.62 ~ 1.61) and nausea and vomiting (OR =0.77,95% CI =0.43 ~ 1.38) were similar in the endostar combination with platinum complexes group compared to those in the platinum complexes alone group.Conclusions In the treatment of malignant pleural effusion,injecting endostar in combination with platinum complexes into pleural cavity improves the effective rate without obviously raised side effects.Owing to the small sample size and poor quality of included trials,more well-designed double-blinded randomized controlled trials should be performed.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between three-dimensional histogram analysis of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(DCE-MRI)and Gleason score(GS)in prostate cancer(Pca)from two hospital, and its diagnostic efficacy for discriminating low-grade from high-grade Pca.Methods:A total of 102 pathologically confirmed Pca patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University and Hangzhou Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital(TCM Hospital)Affiliated to Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from January 2017 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.The quantitative parameters of Pca, including transport constant(K trans), rate constant(K ep), percent volume of the extravascular extracellular space(V e)and fraction of the Intraplasmic contrast volume(V p), were obtained by manually layer by layer delineating of interested regions of all lesions on the original DCE-MRI imaging.Then the three-dimensional histogram analysis of the above parameters were performed to obtain the minimum, maximum, median, mean, area, 10 thpercentile, 25 thpercentile, 75 thpercentile and 90 thpercentile.The correlations between quantitative parameters and GS, and diagnostic efficiencies were analyzed. Results:102 Pca patients were divided into low-grade prostate cancer group(GS≤3+ 4)(n=44)and high-grade Pca group(GS≥4+ 3)(n=58). There were no statistically significant differences in age and location of lesions between the two groups( P>0.05), but there were statistically significant differences in Gleason score, PSA level and lesion diameter between the two groups( U=0.000, 730.000, 711.000, all P<0.05). The median, mean, 10 thpercentile, 25 thpercentile, 75 thpercentile, 90 thpercentile derived from K trans, and K ep(median, mean, 10%, 25%, 75%, 90%)together with maximum of K transand mean for V e were positively correlated with GS( r=0.405 to 0.583, P<0.05), in which mean of K transhad the highest positive correlation( r=0.583, P=0.000). The histogram parameters derived from V pwere negatively correlated with GS( r=-0.301 to 0.341, P<0.05). The area under ROC of 75th percentile derived from K transwas the highest(0.832). When the cut-off value of 75 thpercentile derived from K transwas ≥0.680/min, its Youden index, sensitivity, and specificity were 0.594, 0.776, 0.818, respectively. Conclusions:The three-dimensional histogram of DCE-MRI quantitative parameters has correlation with GS in Pca patients, can be used to discriminate low-grade from high-grade Pca.
