6.Evaluation of Chinese cobra venoms in preventing the kidney from ischemia/reperfusion injury
Chinese Journal of Nephrology 2005;0(08):-
Objective To investigate the renal protection of Chinese cobra venoms (CCV) and its mechanism in renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Methods Thirty-two rats were divided into four groups. 0.1% CCV was separately infused into abdominal cavity at 0.5 h, 24 h before reperfusion in group Ⅰ and Ⅱ . Group Ⅲ suffered from kidney I/R was served as pathological control. Group Ⅳ was sham operation group. BUN and Scr were measured before ischemia and 24 h after reperfusion. Complement C3 was observed at 0, 0.5, 2, 24 h after reperfusion. The kidney samples were examined by HE stain under light microscopy. Apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP-biotin in situ nick-end labeling(TUNEL). Results Significant histological damage, apoptosis of tubular cell and impaired renal function were found in group Ⅰ and Ⅲ.The above indexes decreased to a less extend in group Ⅱ (P

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics,therapy and prognostic factors of small cell carcinoma of the cervix.Methods Clinical and pathological data of eight patients were analyzed retrospectively.Results Eight patients all presented with symptoms of abnormal vaginal bleeding or postcoital spotting.One patient had stage Ⅰ b1 disease,2 had stage Ⅰ b2 disease.2 had stage Ⅱ b disease and 3 had stage Ⅲ b disease.Histopathologic findings showed the small tumor cells had scant cytoplasm,round nuclei,absence of nucleoli,and finely dispersed chromatin.Immunohistochemical findings were positive in 7 cases for neuron-specific enolase.Three patients with stage Ⅰ b disease and 1patient with stage Ⅲb disease underwent radical hysterectomy and postoperative chemotherapy.with or without radiotherapy,and the survival period was 64,22,14 and 6 months respectively.Two patients with stage Ⅱ b disease and 2 with stage Ⅲ b disease underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy,and the survival period was 25,9,10 and 5 months respectively.Conclusions Immunohistochemical analysis using several kinds of neuroendocrine markers is helpful in establishing the correct diagnosis in addition to focusing on characteristic histopathological features.It is necessary to use comprehensive treatment including surgery,chemotherapy and radiotherapy for patients with small cell carcinoma of the cervix.Chemotherapy may play an important role in the treatment.

Objective:To investigate the validity and the outcome of a new surgery method that utilizes lateral great toe flap to decoratively reconstruct the thumb pulp loss.Methods:From Jan.2009 to Jan. 2014 , 22 cases with unilateral thumb pulp defect were included, for whom, lateral great toe flap was de-ployed to reconstruct the thumb.Blood circulation was re-established by the anastomosis of the digital vessels of toes and fingers in 18 cases, the other 4 cases were conducted by a dorsal metatarsal artery and vein anastomosed to the deep branch of the radial artery and the dorsal metacarpal vein respectively; as for the nerve repair, toe-to-finger digital nerve anastomosis was performed.The donor sites were covered by full-thickness inguinal skin grafts.Results:All the 22 flaps survived without complications.With 6 to 12 months follow-up, the surviving fingers all presented aesthetically pleasant appearance with vivid loops and whorls.Normal functions like sweating were restored as well, and the two-point-discrimination ranged 3.0 to 6.0 mm (4.2 mm in average).The skin grafts to the donor sites healed uneventfully, the appearance and functions of the feet were unaffected.Conclusion: Lateral toe flap should be the first-line choice for reconstructing thumb defect, as it conveniently restores both functions and outlook.

Objective:To optimize the conditions in the extraction process of Yushaoshang liposomal gels. Methods: Using the content of hydrobererine and extract yield as the indices, the optimum extraction conditions were screened by orthogonal test. Results:The optimum extraction conditions were as follows:Rhizoma coptidis was crashed into small particles as 10 mesh sieve, heating extrac-ted three times with 10-fold,8-fold and 8-fold water, and extracting 3h, 2h and 2h,respectively. Conclusion:The extraction technology is reliable and available in the preparation of Yushaoshang liposomal gels.

Objective To detect the expression of Th17 levels about peripheral blood in patients with bron-chial asthma in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,and to investigate its effect in pathogenesis of bronchial asthmaand. Methods Patients with acute bronchial asthma from 2014 April to 2014 November were collected in the experiment. There are 52 cases as observation group (group of patients with asthma),and the patients were then divided according the severity (mild,moderate,severe);in addition,select 50 healthy people in the same period in our hospital as con-trol group healthy control group.Collect peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,the expression of specific transcription factors ROR gamma T and cytokine IL -17 in the peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in Th17 cells levels were detected by real -time fluorescent quantitative PCR.Results The expression of IL -17,ROR gamma T in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of the observation group were higher than the control group;the expression of IL -17,ROR gamma T in alveolar lavage fluid quantity and peripheral blood with severe patients in the observation group were higher than that in the mild patients,differences were statistically significant (P <0.05).Conclusion There are 17 auxiliary T lymphocytes in patients with bronchial asthma in vivo (Th17) advantage of expression,Th17 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma.Bronchial asthma patients body may have advantage to heip expression of T lymphocytes 17 (Th17).Th17 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma.
