ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of low central venous pressure (LCVP) in the operation of major hepatic resection.MethodsFourty-eight patients underwent major hepatic resection were randomized into two groups: LCVP and control group.In the LCVP group,CVP was maintained ≤5 cm H2O during the hepatic resection and then returned to normal after resection.In the control group,CVP was maintained normal between 6 -12 cm H20.The duration of hepatectomy,volume of blood loss,volume of blood transfused and renal function were compared between the two groups.ResultsFor the LCVP and control group,the time for hepatectomy was (45 ± 8 ) and ( 35 ± 5 ) min,respectively; the volumes of blood loss were ( 850 ± 160) and (436 ±280)ml,respectively; the blood loss during operation was (490 ± 130) and (270 ± 105 ) ml respectively.The differences were statistically significant (t values were 15.53,7.69 and 17.89 separately,P ＜0.05 ).No significant difference in the renal function was observed before and after the operation ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Using LCVP technique during liver resection significantly reduced the operation time,blood loss and blood infusion.And there wa.s no obvious adverse effect on renal function.

Hypertriglyceridemia, and the ectopic deposition of triglycerides, are the risk factors for insulin resistance. To clarify the mechanism of regulations in triglyceride metabolism is an approach to the elucidation of pathogenesis and effective treatment of insulin resistance-related diseases.

Objective To discuss the value of 256 spiral CT dynamic volume scanning in the diagnosis of moyamoya disease.Methods Twenty-three patients with moyamoya disease undergoing 256 spiral CT dynamic volume scanning (moyamoya group) were selected,and 18 patients having cerebrovascular disease symptoms,but the brain artery without stenosis (control group) were also selected.The volume reconstruction (VR),maximum intensity projection (MIP) and cerebral CT perfusion imaging was displayed.The cerebral CT perfusion imaging parameters of anterior,middle,posterior cerebral artery were measured and analyzed.Results VR,MIP could well reproduce lesion location,degree of stenosis and skull base abnormal vascular network change.Compared with control group,the cerebral blood volume (CBV) was increased [(8.46 ±0.91) ml/100 g vs.(2.92 ±0.72) ml/100 g],time to peak (TTP) was increased [(30.27 ±5.02) s vs.(24.83 ±4.07) s] in anterior cerebral artery,and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.01),but there was no significant difference in the cerebral blood flow (CBF),the mean transit time (MTT)(P ＞ 0.05).Compared with control group,CBV was increased [(8.06 ± 1.05) ml/100 g vs.(6.08 ± 0.56) ml/100 g],MTT,TTP was increased [(6.34 ± 1.01) s vs.(3.83 ± 0.83) s,(32.06 ± 2.55) s vs.(25.83 ± 2.34) s] in middle cerebral artery,and there was significant difference (P＜ 0.01),but there was no significant difference in CBF (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with control group,there was no significant difference in the cerebral CT perfusion imaging parameters of posterior cerebral artery (P ＞0.05).Conclusion 256 spiral CT dynamic volume scanning can be combined with morphology and function imagings,and has important guiding significance for diagnosis of moyamoya disease.

Objective To investigate the effects of ?-lipoic acid on the proliferation and activation of NF-?B induced by high glucose (HG) in rat mesenteric cells (MCs). Methods The rat mesenteric cells were cultured in the medium with normal glucose (5.6mmol/L, NG), high glucose (25mmol/L, HG), HG+100 ?mol/L ?-lipoic acid, or HG+200?mol/L ?-lipoic acid and HG+PDTC (a NF-?B inhibitor). Activation of nuclear factor-?B (NF-?B) of rat mesenteric cells were measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). The cell proliferation was assessed by MTT. Results ?-lipoic acid (50~300?mol/L) can inhibit the proliferation of MCs. The NF-?B binding activity was 2.2 -fold higher in MCs exposed to HG compared to NG (P

Resistance is one of the most important reasons that restrict the clinical application of most chemotherapeutic medicines. Docetaxel is a very widely applicated antitumor medicine. Most of the researches on the mechanism of resistance against docetaxel focused on the drug transporters, changes in drug metabolism and pathway alteration of cell cycle and apoptnsis. The mechanism of docetaxel resistance and the predictive data based on clinical research to docetaxel therapy in cancer treatment were reviewed.

The research frontiers in foreign medical informatics were analyzed according to the co-occurrence net-work map, hotspots density map and cluster tree map that were plotted for the PubMed-covered scientific papers on medical informatics from 2010 to 2014 , which showed that the research frontiers in foreign medical informatics were the natural language processing and data mining of electronic health records, medical decision-making assistant system, computer-aided drug therapy, clinical decision-making support, health service attitude, health service quality, health service model, medical records system and its linkage, information system and its integration.

0.05).Except imipenem and ampicillin,there was significant difference between the resistance of non-ESBLs-producing strains from CAP and from HAP to other eleven kinds of antibiotics(?2 test,P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of extended-spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs) and the resistance in Escherichia coli isolates from biliary tract and abdominal cavity.METHODS ESBLs-producers were detected by CLSI Phenotypic Confirmatory Test and susceptibilities were tested by agar dilution method.RESULTS 50.1% Of isolates were ESBLs producers in those isolates.ESBLs producers were highly resistant to ampicillin,cefazolin,cefuroxime,fluoroquinolones,and cefotaxime.The resistant rate to ceftazidime,cefepime,cefoperazone-sulbactam,amikacin,and cefmetazole was less than 40%.None was resistant to meropenem in ESBLs producers.In non-ESBLs producers the resistant rate to ampicillin,cefazolin,cefuroxime,fluoroquinolones was more than 40% and most were susceptible to other antimicrobial agents.The resistant rate to ampicillin,cefazolin,cefuroxime,and ciprofloxacin was significantly higher in ESBLs producers than non-ESBLs producers.CONCLUSIONS With resistance to most of antimicrobial agents,ESBLs-producers were highly prevalent in E.coli isolates from biliary tract and abdominal cavity,so more attention should be paid to survey and detect those strains.
