Objective To establish an animal model for study on early oral fluid resuscitation of burn shock so as to provide experimental basis for oral fluid resuscitation of burn shock in wars, accidents or disasters. Methods Male Beagle dogs weighing 11-13 kg were used in the study and the carotis, jugular and duodenum were cannulated respectively for measurement of homodynamics, tissue perfusion and gastrointestinal function. Dogs were subjected to a 35% TBSA full thickness flame injury with 10-mi-nute anesthesia by intravenous injection of propofol 24 hours later, and then randomly and equally divided into two groups(8 dogs in each group) : no fluid resuscitation group (NR group) undergoing no treatment in the first 24 hours post burn and oral fluid resuscitation group ( OR group) undergoing gastric infusion of glucose electrolyte solution (GES) according to Parkland formula. From the second 24 hours post burn, animals in two groups were given delayed Ⅳ fluid resuscitation, and then intravenous nutritional support was initiated at the 72nd hour. The mean arterial pressures (MAP), cardiac output (CO), dp/dt max of left ventricular contractility (dp/dtmax) and plasma volume (PV) were monitored continuously. The pa-rameters of gastrointestinal tissue peffusion, the rates of gastric emptying and intestinal absorption of GES were determined, the morbidity was also recorded at the end of 5-day experiment. Results After 35% TBSA burn injury, MAP, CO,dp/dt max and PV dropped markedly and gastrointestinal tissue perfusion reduced obviously. CO and PV in OR group were significantly higher than those in NG group at 4, 8 and 24 hours after burn. Homodynamic parameters and gastrointestinal tissue perfusion in OR group were pro-moted to pre-injury level at 48 and 72 hours respectively, while homodynamic parameters in NR group did not return to pre-injury level till 72 hours, and gastrointestinal tissue perfusion kept lower than pre-injury till 120 hours post burn. Rates of gastric emptying and intestinal absorption of GES significantly reduced to the lowest level (42% and 37% of pre-injury) at about 4 hours post bum, but did not return to pre-in-jury level till eight hours post bum. Over five days, two out of eight dogs (25%) died in NG group but none in OR group. Conclusions The animal model can exactly simulate the actual circumstance, where oral resuscitation is superior to Ⅳ resuscitation in some aspects in treating early bum shock in wars, accidents and disasters, and provide practical and reliable method for measurement of homodynamic parameters, tissue perfusion, gastric emptying and intestinal absorptive function.

Objective To investigate the effect of carbachol on local gut inflammation during entetal resuscitation of rats with bum shock. Method Thirty-eight Wistar rats were subjected to 35%TBSA full thickness scald injury, and enteral fluid was infused into animal intestines via duodenal stomas 30 minutes post bum. The animals were randomly divided into four groups: no resuscitation (Control, n = 8), enteral resuscitation using either a glucose electrolyte solution (GES, n = 10) or GES plus carbachol (60 μg·kg-1,GES/CAR, n = 10), or carbachol alone (CAR, n = 10) .The volumeof GES infusion was based on the Parkland formula (4 ml· 1% TB-SA-1·Kg-1) - All animals were sacrificed 4 hours post bum, and specimens of jejunal tissue were collected to determine the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, nitric oxide (NO), nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and myeloperoxidase (MPO). Serum assays for plasma diamine oxidase (DAO) activities were also performed. Results There were no statistical differences in the intestinal levels of NOS, NO, TNF-α and MPO, and plasma OAO activities, between the GES group and the control group. Compared to the GES group, the GES/CAR group showed significantly lowered levels of intestinal NOS (1.276 ±0.391 vs. 1.818 ±0.436, P＜0.05), NO (0.925 ±0.402 vs. 1.561 ±0.190, P ＜ 0.05, TNF-α (0.87±0.13 vs. 1.94±0.47, P ＜0.01) and MPO (0.465 ±0.092 vs. 0.832±0.214, P＜0.05),and reduction in plasma DAO activites (0.732±0.192 vs. 1.381 ±0.564, P ＜0.05). The CAR group also showed significantly lowered levels of intestinal NOS, NO, TNF-α and MPO and reduced plasma DAO activites, compared to the GES group. Conclusions Theses results suggest that carbachol significantly inhibits the release of proinflammatory mediator and attenuates local inflammation in gut during enteral fluid resuscitation of rats in rats with bum shock. We postulate that carbachol may exert its and-inflammatory effects via the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the causes of delayed union or nonunion of the ulna after intramedullary nailing in pediatric forearm fractures.

METHODSFrom February 2005 to February 2010,5 patients with forearm fractures who were treated with titanium elastic nailing (TEN) were identified to fulfill the criteria of having developed a delayed union or nonunion of the ulna. The causes of delayed union or nonunion were investigated according to mechanism of injury, fracture location, treatments methods and postoperative management. All patients were male and the age was 3 to 14 years old with an average of 9.4 years. All fractures were located on the mid-third part of forearm. Two cases had a re-fracture. Among them, 3 cases caused by high-energy injury and 2 cases by falling down. Open reduction were performed in 4 cases while the other one was treated with closed reduction. Four patients were immobilized in an above-elbow cast, postoperatively.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 7 to 19 months with an average of 11.4 months. There were 4 delayed union and 1 nonunion. Three patients healed after the removal of the nail and avoidance of weight-bearing. Two patients healed by replacing another fixation. No patients had soft-tissue irritation or nail-entry-site infections.. The clinical effect was evaluated according to Daruwalla and Price scores with 3 excellent and 2 good of the results.

CONCLUSIONSUsing titanium elastic nailing for the treatment of pediatric both-bone forearm fractures is a good method. However,strict indication selection should be followed to avoid delayed union or nonunion.

·AIM:To present a case of late onset bilateral keratectasis after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia with rigid gas-permeable contact lenses with a brief review of literature on this subject.·METHODS:A 27-year-old woman underwent bilateral uneventful LASIK for moderate myopia. Preoperative cycloplegic refractions were -5.50/-0.50×50° right eye (OD) and - 4.50/-1.00×15° left eye (OS).Corneal pachymetry was 526μm OD and 541μm OS, Preoperative corneal topography was normal and did not reveal any keratoconus or forme fruste keratoconus.Following the creation of flaps with 160μm plates,ablations of 102μm OD and 86μm OS were performed,estimated to leave residual stromal beds of 264μm OD and 295μm OS.·RESULTS:Twenty-nine months postoperatively,the patient developed bilateral inferior keratectasia of -12.50/-4.00×160° OD and -6.00/- 4.25×125° OS.Visual acuity was reduced in both eyes;the central cornea had steepened; and pachymetry showed central corneal thinning.Keratectasia was diagnosed,and rigid contact lenses were fitted.Three years later,the patient achieved satisfactory visual acuity and all-day lens wear with minimal complications.·CONCLUSION:Late keratectasia may follow LASIK for low to moderate myopia despite a thorough preoperative work-up.Rigid contact lenses can offer a safe,reversible option for improving visual acuity in such patients by delaying or avoiding the need for intracorneal ring segments implanting or penetrating keratoplasty.

Aim To explore the role of PI3 K/Akt/Sirt1 pathway in cardioprotection of hydrogen sulfide ( H2 S ) postconditioning against ischemia/reperfusion ( I/R) injury. Methods Langendorff perfusion appa-ratus was used to build an isolated rat myocardial I/R model. Isolated rat hearts were subjected to 30 min global ischemia followed by 60 min reperfusion after 20 min of equilibrium. 60 male SD rats were randomly di-vided into 5 groups(n=12):control group(Control), ischemia/reperfusion group( I/R) , H2 S postcondition-ing group( H2 S) , inhibitor LY294002 group( LY) and H2 S with inhibitor group( H2 S+LY) . The left ventric-ular diastolic pressure ( LVEDP ) , the left ventricular developed pressure(LVDP), the maximum rate of in-crease or decrease of left ventricular pressure ( ± dp/dtmax ) were registered at the end of 20 min equilibri-um, 30 and 60 min of reperfusion separately. Triphe-nyl tetrazolium chloride( TTC) staining was used to de-termine the myocardial infarct size. The levels of Sirt1 and PGC-1 mRNA were tested using real-time PCR. The expressions of Sirt1 and PGC-1αwere detected with Western blot analysis. Immunohistochemical method was used to determine the location of Sirt1 . Results There were no differences in equilibrium hemodynamics observed between the experimental groups(P>0. 05). At the end of reperfusion, compared with I/R group, H2 S group had obviously ameliorated functional recov-ery and significantly decreased the myocardial infarct size(26. 9 ± 4. 9)% vs(48. 9 ± 5. 6)%(P <0. 05). Meanwhile, the expression of Sirt1 and PGC-1α in-creased significantly. However,LY294002 reversed the cardioprotective effects provided by hydrogen sulfide postconditioning and reduced the level of Sirt1 and PGC-1α, the percentage of Sirt1-positive nuclei. Con-clusion PI3 K/Akt/Sirt1 signaling pathway mediates the hydrogen sulfide postconditioning-induced protec-tion against I/R injury.
