Objective To investigate the influence and mechanism of erythropoietin (EPO) in renal blood flow after limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR). Methods Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, LIR group and EPO+LIR group with ten in each group. The values of renal blood flow, plasma creatinine (Cr), urea nitrogen (BUN) content in plasma, kidney tissue wet to dry ratio (W/D), nitric oxide (NO), nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in re-nal tissue were detected in three groups. The immunohistochemistry assay was used to detect the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM-1) in renal tissue. The morphological changes of renal tissue were observed with light microscope. Results The renal blood flow was significantly decreased, while the val-ues of Cr, BUN, W/D, NO, ET-1, NOS, expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 was significantly increased in LIR group than those of control group (P<0.05). Broaden interstitial and infiltration of inflammatory cells were observed in the renal tissue under light microscope. In the EPO+LIR group, the renal blood flow increased, the values of Cr, BUN, W/D, NO, ET-1 and NOS, expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 decreased significantly compared with those of LIR group (P<0.05). The patho-logical changes were alleviated in EPO+LIR group. Conclusion EPO can improve renal function, increase renal blood flow in rats after LIR. The mechanism may be related to the decreased edema, changed renal vasomotor function and decreased in-flammation.

Objective To investigate the effects of enteral immunonutrition supplemented with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (ω-3 PUFA) on the incidences and severity of ventilator associated pneumonia com- plications, inflammatory response, and the prognosis in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) un-dergoing ventilator therapy. Methods From January 2015 to June 2017, 64 patients of sTBI were selected and randomly divided into experimental group (ω-3 PUFA, n=32) and control group (n=32). White blood cells (WBC) and the proportion of neutrophils (N%) were evaluated by cell analyzer.

OBJECTIVE： To investigate the effects and its mechanism of calcium phosphate bone cement （CPC） loading total flavonoids of Davallia mariesii on osteogenic differentiation of induced membrane in rats. METHODS： Drug-loading CPC and drug-loading polymethyl methacrylate （PMMA） cement were prepared with the contents of Qianggu capsules （total flavonoids of D. mariesii as active ingredient） using CPC and PMMA cement as carrier. Totally 64 male SD rats were randomly divided into drug-loading CPC group， drug-loading PMMA cement group， no-drug CPC group， no-drug PMMA cement group， with 16 rats in each group. The femur of rats was separated and osteotomized to prepare bone defect model， and then the corresponding bone cement was implanted. Four weeks after modeling， the induced membranes of rats were cut and protected. Bone cement was taken out and autogenous cancellous bone was implanted. At the 4th week after modeling， X-ray photographs were taken on the hind limb bones of rats. At the 4th week after modeling and 6th week after bone grafting， induced membranes and new bone were taken from the bone defect area of rats respectively. HE staining was used to observe the morphology of induced membrane， and the width of bone rabecular and the number of osteoblasts of new bone tissue were measured. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expression of BMP-2 and VEGF in induced membrane. Western blotting assay was used to detect the protein expression of Smad1， Smad4 and Smad7 in new bone. RESULTS： Compared with other 3 groups， the degradation of bone cement in drug-loading CPC group was more obvious in the bone defect areas， which showed that the formation of induced membrane was observed and the bone defect areas were smaller； capillary endothelial cells were abundant and orderly arranged in the induced membranes， and the width of bone trabeculae and the number of osteoblasts in the new bone tissue increased significantly （P＜0.05）； the protein expression of BMP-2 and VEGF in the induced membrane， the protein expression of Smad1， Smad4 and Smad7 in new bone were increased significantly （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： CPC loading total flavonoids of D. mariesii promotes the formation of induced membrane osteoblast in bone defect model rats， which may be associated with regulating osteoblast differentiation by activating BMP-2/Smad pathway； at the same time， it can promote bone healing by promoting the differentiation of vascular endothelial cells， accelerating the formation of capillary network and increasing the expression of vascular endothelial cells.
