BACKGROUND: Researches suggest that ginseng saponin (GS) has protective effect on central nerve, but the effect on spinal nerves is reported rarely.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between effect of GS on spinal nerve and level of nitrogen monoxide (NO) and its mechanism.DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal study.SETTING: Military Hyperbaric Oxygen Center of Navy General Hospital of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed at Clinical Anatomy Institute (National Key Laboratory) of the First Military Medical University of Chinese PLA in 2000. Forty SD foetus rats with 15-day conception were selected.METHODS: Study Ⅰ: Embryo-spinal nerve cells of SD rats were separated, extracted and modeled with DMEM/F12 culture medium. On the fourth day of inoculated culture, axon of spinal nerve (simulation of peripheral nerve injury) was damaged with scarification method in injury group, but that in non-injury group was not treated. 150 μL cell culture medium and 100 mg/L Griess solution were mixed at 0, 0.5 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3 hours after injury respectively. Absorbency (A) was assayed with Σ960 (λ=570 nm) enzyme-linked immunoadsordent assay (ELISA) symbolic device 10 min-utes after reaction at room temperature. Study Ⅱ: Embryo-spinal nerve cells of SD rats were separated and extracted. Those in the experimental group were treated with GS + DMEM/F12 culture medium, but with DMEM/F12 culture medium in the control group. A value was assayed with the same method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:① Relationship between injury of spinal neurons and level of NO;② Relationship between protective effect of GS and level of NO.RESULTS:① Relationship between injury of spinal neurons and level of NO: In the injury group, NO secretion was increased after injury of spinal neurons, reached peak 2 hours later, and decreased 3 hours later. There was significant difference as compared 0.5 hour with 0 hour (P < 0.01),and also there was significant difference as compared 2 hourswith 0 hour (P < 0.01).② Relationship between protective effect of GS and level of NO: In the control group, A value was increased with time passing, reached peak 2 hours later, and decreased 3 hours later; but A value in the experimental group was not changed generally. There was significant difference between the two groups at 2-hour point (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: NO liberation is increased after peripheral nerve injury.GS can inhibit NO liberation so as to protect peripheral nerve.

Objective To analyze the related factors and the independent risk factors of death in patients with multiple injuries. Methods Data of 651 patients with multiple injuries treated in our hospital from June 2012 to June 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the outcomes, patients were divided into effective group (n=608) and death group (n=43). Data of gender, age, cause of injury, the primary diseases related with the trauma, ISS score, number of trauma, time from injury to the treatment and the body parts of injury were compared between two groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of death in multiple trauma patients. Results The proportion of patients≥60 years old, ISS score≥16 points, the number of trauma≥4, a major brain injury and time of trauma to the treatment ≥3 h were higher in death group than those of effective group (P<0.05). The independent risk factors for emergency death in multiple injuries included patients≥60 years old, major brain injury, ISS score ≥16 points and time of trauma to the treatment ≥ 3 h. The cause of death in patients with craniocerebral trauma (cerebral laceration) accounted for up to 27.91%(n=12), intracranial hematoma accounted for 20.93% (n=9), and traumatic hemothorax accounted for 11.63% (n=5). Conclusion The related factors and independent risk factors should be paid attention to doctors in emergency department, and the emergency plan should be made to reduce the death rate of emergency patients with multiple injuries.

Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2010;26(1):59-63
AIM: To investigate the effect of exercise training(EX) on the arterial baroreflex and possible mechanisms in rats with chronic heart failure(CHF).METHODS: Experiments were carried out in four groups: EX-CHF,CHF,EX-sham,and sham. CHF was induced by left coronary artery ligation,and EX consisted of 4 weeks of treadmill running. Baroreflex function,plasma angiotensin II(Ang II) and central AT1 receptor expression were determined.RESULTS: (1) The average slope and maximal gain of the baroreflex curve in CHF rats were lower than those in sham rats(P<0.01). EX significantly enhanced baroreflex parameters in CHF group but not in sham group.(2) EX decreased plasma Ang II in CHF rats [(137±27)ng/L vs (263±55)ng/L,P<0.01],but had no significant effect on plasma Ang II in sham rats [(75±17)ng/L vs (92±21)ng/L].(3) Expression of AT1R protein in the PVN of CHF rats was higher than that in sham rats(1.20±0.21 vs 0.70±0.14,P<0.01). EX reduced AT1R protein level in CHF rats(0.90±0.13),but had no impact in sham rats(0.60±0.16).CONCLUSION: EX restores the attenuated arterial baroreflex function in CHF rats,involving in decrease of plasma Ang II and downregulation of AT1R in the PVN.
