Objective To research the radiodiagnosis of fat embolism sydrome in the chest.Methods The clinic and X-ray manifestation of 12 cases fat embolism after long bone fracture were analysed.Results After wounded 19 to 70 hours later,all of the patients showed dyspneic respiration,symptoms of central nervous system,dermorrhagia,partly thrombocy topenia,fat drop in the urine or blood.There were diffuse maculate and tablet shadow of the pulmones on the chest X-ray film.Conclusion The X-ray character of fat embolism is difuse maculate and tablet consolidation shadow in the pulmones.

Objective Patients with knee osteoarthritis undergoing total knee arthroplasty may have a different degree of pain during the perioperative period. This will not only bring a lot of adverse effects to the patients,and directly affect the early postoperative functional exercise and rehabilitation of the knee joint. At present,the commonly methods used to relieve the pain after TKA are:patient con-trolled Intravenous analgesia(PCIA)、patient controlled epidural analgesia( PCEA)、continuous femoral nerve block analgesia(CFNB)、joint peripheral injection analgesia and some methods without using medi-cine. In this paper,the analgesia methods used during the perioperative period of TKA and the latest de-velopment are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the expression pattern of Placental growth factor (PlGF) and regulatory effects of interleukin-6 (IL-6)on PlGF expression in the primary cultured trophoblast cells. Methods Cytotrophoblast cells werecollected by trypsin-collagenase digestion and Percoll gradient centrifugation for primary culture. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) were resorted to demonstrate the expression pattern of PlGF mRNA in trophoblast cells cultured in vitro. The effects of IL-6 with different concentration(100,10,1 and 0.1 ?g/L) and duration (6,12,24 and 48 h) on PlGF expression were observed. Results The 185 bp and 248 bp bands of PlGF were showed by RT-PCR. PlGF expression correlated with IL-6. PlGF began to increase at 6 h, and reached the climax at 12 h when recultured with 100 ?g/L IL-6. Conclusions PlGF expression has time and dose dependance on IL-6. It may play an important role in early pregnancy.

The pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis(AR)is extremely complex.In recent years,a variety of allergens and other complexes have been developed to induce a series of signal transduction mechanisms by activating mast cells.Intracellular media release(mast cells,MCs)play an important role in the pathogenesis of AR.In this paper,we reviewed the progress of mast cells in the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis in recent years in order to further understand its role in the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis and provide new ideas on the therapeutic target for allergic rhinitis.

ObjectiveTo analyze the CT appearances of primary pulmonary non-Hodgkin lymphoma(PPNHL)in order to improve its diagnosis.MethodsCT manifestations of 19 cases with PPNHL confirmed by pathology and clinical follow-up were retrospectively analyzed.ResuitsNodules 7 cases and masses 8 cases in PPNHL were ill-defined and markedly enhanced,in which air bronchogram was commonly seen.Muhiple patchy areas distributed in the bilateral lungs were found in 9 cases.Consolidation 7 cases was lobar and markedly enhanced,in which air bronchogram was commonly seen.Interstitial change manifested as bilateral diffuse ground-glass opacities and reticular shadow was found in 1 case.Mixed imaging manifestations were detected in 10 cases.Pleural effusion 4 cases was uncommon.Conclusion CT manifestations of PPNHL are varied,but some specific imaging features still exist,CT examination combined with clinical manifestations is helpful for the diagnosis of PPNHL.

Objective To assess the feasibility of heterogeneous acellular dermal matrix(ADM)seeded with adipose derived stem cells(ADSC)for urethroplasty in a rabbit model.Methods ADSC were isolated from a rabbit and expanded in vitro,then identified by flow cytometry.We seeded ADSC onto the ADM and made it into tissue-engineered urethra.12 male rabbits were removed 1 cm urethra and divided into experiment group and control group.There were 6 rabbits in each group.Reconstructed urethra with tissueengineered urethra was used in experiment group,while unseeded ADM were used in control group.Urethrography was performed at 6 months after surgery.The animals were scarified at 3 and 6 months after surgery and the repaired urethra were harvested.H&E staining and immunohistochemical staining were performed with cytokeratin AE1/AE3 and smooth muscle desmin makers.Results The morphology of isolated ADSC was with long spindle cross-links,and had multicentral growth.Flow cytometry showed that the ADSC expressed CD166,CD105,CD90 and CD44,but not expressed CD45 and CD13.The cells could growth well on the ADM and showed good biocompatibility with it.All animals could void normally,urethrography showed there was no significant stenosis.3 months after surgery,the experiment group appeared regenerated smooth muscle but not in the control group,both groups did not regenerate urothelium.At 6 months urothelium and smooth muscle cells could be observed in the experiment group,but only the smooth muscle was evident in the control group.Conclusions By applying tissue engineering methods,we can seed the ADSC onto the heterogeneous ADM and make it into tissue-engineered urethra,which can help improve the reconstructive effect of urethra.

Objective To explore the effects of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) on the fluidity of rat visceral sac and placental glutathione (GSH) concentration in rats with intrahepatic cholestasis. Methods Sixty rats were randomly divided into 3 groups (20 in each). Refined vegetable oil 2.5 ml/(kg?d) was given to the control group since the 13 days of pregnancy. The ICP treatment and non treatment group received either progesterone 75 mg/(kg?d) or 17? ethynylestradiol 1.25 mg/ (kg?d) from the 13th to 17th day, respectively. From the 17th day, the control and non treatment group were fed with 0.9% nitrachloride solution 5 mg/(kg?d) and the treatment group with UDCA 50 mg/(kg?d). All rats were sacrificed on the 21st day. The visceral yolk sac cell membrane and GSH concentration were measured Results The concentration of GSH in the ICP non treatment group (1.12?0.02 mmol/g protein) was significantly lower than that of the treatmentgroup (1.38?0.03 mmol/g protein) and the control group (1.56?0.07 mmol/g protein) ( P 0.05). The fetal death rate in treatment group (9.55%) and control group (1.97%) was significantly lower than that of the non treatment group (20.47%) ( P

Objective: To understand the pathogenesis of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ) and to investigate its differential diagnosis, clinical manifestations, treatment and prevention. Methods: By analyzing the clinical data of 4 patients with BRONJ in the retrospective study with reviewing related literatures in the world to make a summary of it Results: Cases of 4 patients mainly presented recurring pain, discharging of pus and disposure and necrosis of the bone. 3 patients received surgical and antibiotics treatments, one of them had local infection which was under control by oral antibiotic. The other 2 patients had no infection and recurrence. Conclusion BRONJ is caused by jaw necrosis due to bisphosphonate inhibition of osteoclast function. For the reason that none of the treatments is unified and satisfied, we should focus on the risk factors in prevention. Appropriate surgery treatment could be well controlled the process of the BRONJ which should be popularization in our study.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship between B-type natriuretic peptides (BNP) and subclinical target organ damage in essential hypertensive (EH) patients.

METHODSA total of 317 EH patients were divided into 3 groups according to BNP levels, namely normal (BNP<600 ng/L) group (n=102), moderate (600-883.5 ng/L) group (n=116), and elevated BNP (>883.5 ng/L) group (n=99). The blood pressure, left ventricular mass index (LVMI), the intima media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery, the plaque size in the coronary artery (CS) and microalbuminuria levels were analyzed in these patients.

RESULTSThe EH patients with moderate and elevated BNP showed significantly higher LVMI, IMT, CS and microalbuminuria levels than those with normal BNP level (LVMI: 102.8∓23.12 and 123.9∓26.47 vs 91.09∓18.71 g/m2; IMT: 0.95∓0.32 and 1.16∓0.37 vs 0.84∓0.28 mm; microalbuminuria: 31.36∓20.55 and 36.73∓22.07 vs 23.21∓18.68, P<0.01). After adjustment, BNP was positively correlated to LVMI, IMT, CS and microalbuminuria level (r=0.45, 0.43, 0.39 and 0.41, respectively, P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, systolic blood pressure, BNP, FPG, and microalbuminuria, LDL-C, and BMI were all related to the occurrence of subclinical target organ damages.

CONCLUSIONBNP is positively correlated to subclinical target organs damages in EH patients.
