Objective To explore the microsurgical treatment of the fourth ventricular tumors. Methods A total of 29 cases of the fourth ventricular tumors were given microsurgical treatment from January 2000 to June 2003 in this hospital. In 5 cases the tumor was located close to the cortex with the superior vermis involvement and the microsurgical operation was performed through the cerebellar vermis. The remaining 24 cases underwent microsurgical resection of tumor through the cerebellomedullary fissure approach. Results A total resection was achieved in 23 cases, and a subtotal resection in 6 cases. Postoperative complications included 2 cases of hemorrhage of the upper digestive tract, 1 case of mutism, 1 case of hematoma of the fourth ventricular, 1 case of epidural hematoma remote from surgical site, and 1 case of irregular breath. Follow-up surveys in 19 cases for 3~12 months (mean, 5.5 months) revealed no tumor recurrence. Conclusions Preoperative proper differentiating characters of tumors, clarifying the position of tumors' basal part, selecting appropriate surgical approach, and understanding microanatomy of the fourth ventricular are the key to successfully complete the procedure.

Objective To investite the effect of endotoxin pretreatment on lung injury induced by hepatic ischemia reperfusion in rabbits and its mechanism. Method Forty-eight New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into4 groups with 12 rabbits each group:routine control group,pretreatment control group,ischemia reperfusion group (IR group), and preperfusion group( LPS + IR group). Rabbits of routine control group received operative dissector only, and those of pretreatment control group received pretratment of daily intraabdominal injection of lipopo|ysaccharide(O.5,0.5,and 1.0 mg/kg,respectively)in the 3 days before operative dissector.Livers of IR group were rendered and ischeraic for 30 minutes, and repeffused for up to 4 hours. Rabbits of LPS +IR group received the preueaunent before heretic ischemia repeffusion. Four hours after reperfusion, serum endotoxin,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), wet/dry ratio and broncho-alveolar lavage fluid protein content of lung,malondialdehyde(MDA) and mpenrxide dismutase(SOD) in lung homogenate, lung injury ratio, and activity of Nuclear factor-kB(NF-kB) in alveolar macrophage wene examined. Differences within the groups were analyzed using One way ANOVA. Results Between the two control groups,there were no significant differences in all indexes(P>0.05). The TNF-α[ (48.31±5.31)pg/ml vs.(56.47±5.09)pg/ml, P<0.01],wet/dry ratio [(4.98±0.33)vs. (5.22±0.31), P = 0.03],broncho-alveolar hvage fluid protein content[(0.68±0.11)g/L vs. (0.76±0.10)g/L, P =0.04],MDA[(0.86±0.06)nmol/mg vs. (0.93±0.07)nmol/mg, P =0.02],lung injury ra-tio[(13.4±4.3)% vs. (17.4±4.1)%, P = 0.03],and the activity of NF-gB[(5.82±1.12)OD/mm2 vs.(7.40±1.26)OD/mm2, P<0.01] in alveolar macrophage of the LPS+ IB group were all significantly lower than those of IB group, while the SOD[ (90.30±7.38 )U/rag vs. (84.44±7.90 )U/rag, P = 0.04]of LPS + IR group was significantly higher than that of IR group. Conclusions Endotoxin pretrealment may ameliorate the lung injury induced by hepatic isehernia reperfusion. The mechanism may be that endotoxin pretreatment deoreases production of serum TNF-α and the activity of NF-kB in alveolar maerophage.

Objective:To assess the characteristics change of sleep architecture in drug naive patients with schizophrenia,compared with healthy control.Methods:The key words including schizophrenia and sleep architecture (or sleep structure or sleep disturbance or polysomnogram and so on) were used to search literatures in MEDLINE,Embase,Springer,PsychINFO,google scholar,Wanfang data,published from 1980 to 2015.Fifteen studies that compared sleep architecture in drug naive patients with schizophrenia and healthy control were included.Literature quality evaluation was performed with the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.The meta-analysis was performed by using Stata13.0 software.Results:Compared to healthy control,the total sleep time decreased (P ＜ 0.01),the sleep latency increased (P ＜ 0.01),the sleep efficiency decreased (P ＜ 0.01),and the rapid-eye-movemem (REM) sleep latency increased (P ＜ 0.01) significantly in drug naive patients with schizophrenia.The proportion of stage1 was increased,and the proportions of stage4 and slow wave sleep stage were decreased,the differences between case and control were statistically significant.Conclusion:In the control of drug effects,patients with schizophrenia may have poorer sleep quality of be poorer than healthy controls,such as the decreased total sleep time,specifically slow wave sleep,prolonged sleep latency and decreased sleep efficiency.

Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics and drug resistance of pathogens in infected donors from organ donation after citizen's death. Methods Clinical data of 465 potential donors from organ donation after citizen's death were retrospectively analyzed. The airway secretion, urine and blood samples of all donors were cultured. The infection rate of the donors, the source and composition ratio of pathogens were summarized. The drug resistance of main Gram-negative and Gram-positive pathogens was analyzed. Results Among 465 donors, 330 cases were infected and the infection rate was 71.0%. Among the positive culture samples of all donors, lower respiratory tract samples accounted for 63.8%(292/458), 18.6%(85/458) for blood samples and 17.7%(81/458) for urine samples. A total of 512 pathogens were isolated, including 75.0%(384/512) of Gram-negative pathogens, 18.2%(93/512) of Gram-positive pathogens followed by 6.8%(35/512) of fungi. Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii were the most common Gram-negative pathogens. Klebsiella pneumoniae was sensitive to quinolones, compound preparations containing β-lactamase inhibitor (piperacillin-tazobactam, cefoperazone sodium-sulbactam sodium) and carbapenem antibiotics, whereas less sensitive to cephalosporins. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was sensitive to β-lactams, quinolones and aminoglycosides. Acinetobacter baumannii was sensitive to polymyxin, tigecycline and amikacin, whereas resistant to the other antibiotics. No Gram-positive pathogens was resistant to vancomycin, linezolid and teicoplanin. Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci were the most commonly isolated Gram-positive pathogens, which yielded resistance rates of 36% and 87% to oxacillin sodium, and were generally resistant to penicillin and erythromycin. The resistance rate of Enterococcus faecalis to quinolones and erythromycin exceeded 90%, and 55% for high-concentration gentamicin. Conclusions The infection rate of organ donors from organ donation after citizen's death is relatively high, and the main infection site is lung. Gram-negative pathogens are the most commonly isolated strains, and certain strains tend to exhibit multiple drug resistance.

Objective:To explore the effect of intensive insulin therapy on hemodynamics and cardiac function in organ donors.Methods:A total of 60 organ donors were randomly divided into two groups of intensive insulin therapy(IIT)and control(30cases each group). Blood glucose was adjusted at 6.2~10.0 mmol/L in control group and 4.4~6.1 mmol/L in IIT group.Blood glucose and insulin dosage during maintenance were recorded.Cardiac function values as well as serum inflammatory factor concentrations at admission and during donation were compared between two groups.Results:During maintenance, blood glucose was significantly lower in IIT group than that in control group [(5.1±0.6)vs(8.2±1.5)mmol/L, P<0.05] and insulin dosage was higher than that in control group [(9.5±3.2)vs(5.8±1.5)U/h, P<0.05]. As compared with control group, cardiac cycle efficiency(CCE), maximal rate of elevated pressure(DP/DT max)and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)in were significantly higher in IIT group than those of control group.And serum cardiac troponin I(cTnI), N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-Pro-BNP), interleukin-6(IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and high mobility group box-1 protein(HMGB1)as well as vasoactive-inotropic score(VIS)were significantly lower than those in control group( P<0.05). As compared with control group, cardiac donation rate of IIT group was significantly higher(30% vs 16.7%, P<0.05). Conclusions:Intensive insulin therapy and blood glucose control may blunt inflammatory response in organ donors, lessen myocardial injury and myocardial depression, stabilize hemodynamics and boost the rate of cardiac donation.
