1.The clinical value of thrombelastography in diagnosis and treatment of acute traumatic coagulopathy
Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine 2016;25(8):1082-1086
Acute traumatic coagulopathy (ATC) is one of coagulopathy induced by severe trauma in the early phase of trauma.It is always with high morbidity,mortality and multiple organ failure.Early diagnosis and treatment is the main content of trauma surgery in the department of emergency and the key to reduce mortality.Thrombelastography (TEG) can comprehensively assess the different stages of coagulation,early diagnose disturbance of blood coagulation and guide the goal-directed therapy with low complications,mortality and medical costs.TEG has been widely used in the operation of cardiac surgery,liver transplantation and trauma surgery to monitor coagulation and guide therapy.This paper mainly reviews the clinical value of thrombelastography in diagnosis and treatment of acute traumatic coagulopathy.

Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2001;0(09):-
Asialoglycoprotein receptor(ASGPR),also called galactose receptor,is predominantly expressed on the sinusoidal surface of mammalian hepatocytes and is involved in many physiological functions.For many years ASGPR has been applied for targeting hepatocytes in drug and gene delivery and for functional mapping of the liver,and considerable progress has been made.ASGPR-mediated liver-targeted drug delivery mainly involved anti-tumor drugs and cholesterol-lowering drugs,etc.Liver-targeted gene delivery was often seen in antisense drugs.The research of hepatic imaging mainly involved the evaluation of liver function and identification between hepatocellular carcinoma and hepatic metastasis of tumors.In addition,researchers have also extended its applications to some new fields,such as three-dimension culture of hepatocytes,hepatocytes screening,and hepatocytes transplantation.New achievements in studies of ASGPR-mediated liver targeting are reviewed in this article.
3.Comparison of two "up and down stairs" methods used by hemiplegic patients
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2004;10(4):231-232
ObjectiveTo evaluate two "up and down stair" methods used by hemiplegic patients.Methods40 cases with hemiplegia were randomly divided into two groups with 20 cases in each group. Patients in the group A went upstairs with health leg and downstairs with affected leg, while, patients in the group B upstairs with affected leg, downstairs with health leg, and then up and down stairs with health and affected leg alternated. Effects of two training menthods were compared.ResultsEach of two training methods had its advantage and disadvantage, but motor function and mobile ability of patients in the group B were better than patients in the group A (P<0.05).ConclusionHemiplegic patients Should choose different training method of up and down stairs according to his status, and not always choose the method of going upstairs with health leg and downstairs with affected leg.

Objective To investigate the significance of I?B kinase-?(IKK-?) and the protective effect of Ligustrazini(Lig) in acute lung injury(ALI) induced by hemorrhagic shock(HS) in rabbits. Methods Thirty rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: HS plus endotoxin group(n=10), Lig treatment group(n=10) and the normal group(n=10). In situ hybridization and immunohitochemistry combined with in situ quantitative analysis were used to detect the distribution and relative contents of IKK-? and NF-?B in lung tissues. The plasma concentration of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) was measured by ELISA. Morphological change of the lung was observed by light microscopy. Results Compared with the normal group, the expression levels of IKK-?(0.223?0.080), NF-?B(0.162?0.021), and TNF-?(809.33?201.6) were obviously increased in HS plus endotoxin group(P

Objective To investigate the preventive mechanism of Anisodamine (654-2) on multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) of rabbits. Methods Rabbit model of MODS induced by hemorrhagic shock and endotoxin was used in this study. Twenty-four rabbits were randomly divided into the control group (C group) , hemorrhagic shock plus endotoxin group (M group) and 654-2 treatment group (T group). The expression of IKK-? of pulmonary alveolar macrophage (PAM) and kuffer cell(KC), the NF-?B activity of nuclear protein extracted from PAM and KC and the concentration of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) in the culture supernatant were measured by in situ hybridization (ISH), electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and enzyme linked immune absorbent analysis(ELISA), respectively. Then the blood air, biochemical and pathological changes in visceral organs were examined in each groups. Results In PAM and KC of M group, The expression of IKK-? mRNA [(0 15?0 03);(0 17?0 04)], the activity of NF-?B [(1 49?0 30);(1 72?0 36)] and the secretion level of TNF-? [( 279 74?25 91);(300 05?30 86)ng/L] were significantly higher than those of control group (P

Objective To investigate the roles of Caspase 3 in neuron apoptosis following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in the rat hippocampus. Methods A model of rats with global ischemia induced by occlusion of the four vessels according to the method by Pulsinelli et al was used in this study. A total of 182 Wistar rats [(220?20) g] were divided randomly into three groups: control group ( n =14), cerebral ischemia group ( n =84), and cerebral ischemia group treated with acetyl asp glu val asp aldehyde (Ac DEVD CHO, n =84). Time points for observation included 8, 24, 48, 72, 120, and 168 h in the latter two groups. Caspase 3 activity in cytosolic extracts (S 100) of hippocampus and apoptotic neurons in hippocampus following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion were observed at the above mentioned time points, respectively. Results (1) No caspase 3 activity was detected in S 100 from the control group. In S 100 from the ischemia group, weak caspase 3 activity was detected at 8 h, but it increased gradually and peaked at 120 h, and then decreased apparently at 168 h after reperfusion. After treatment with Ac DEVD CHO following cerebral ischemia/ reperfusion, caspase 3 activity was inhibited to some extent at each time point. (2) Apoptotic cells were occasionally observed in hippocampus in the control group, but the apoptotic cells increased apparently at 24 h, peaked at 120 h, and decreased a few at 168 h after reperfusion in ischemia group. After treatment with Ac DEVD CHO following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion, apoptosis decreased to some extent at each time point (except 8 h following cerebral ischemia/ reperfusion). (3) Caspase 3 activity in S 100 from hippocampus was positively correlated with apoptotic neurons in hippocampus following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion at each time point ( r =0.9356 in ischemia group, r =0.980 0 in treatment group). Conclusion Caspase 3 may be one of the key causes resulting in neuron apoptosis in rat hippocampus after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. It may play an important role in ischemia reperfusion brain injury.
10.Brucella orchitis: A retrospective study of 69 cases.
National Journal of Andrology 2016;22(1):46-51
OBJECTIVETo investigate the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of Brucella orchitis, so as to provide reliable evidence for the prevention and treatment of the disease.
METHODSWe conducted retrospective statistical analyses on the medical records of 48 outpatients and 21 inpatients with Brucella orchitis.
RESULTSBrucella orchitis was diagnosed in 6.67% of the male patients with brucellosis (69/1 034). The disease exhibited typical epidemiological features, with a higher incidence rate among those in frequent contact with sheep and elderly people, in the period from April to July, and in the areas with sheep husbandry. All the Brucella orchitis patients had such local symptoms as testicular pain and swelling, more frequently involving both testes, and other most common symptoms included fever, chills, sweating, and painful joints. Based on IIEF-5, 45 of the patients suffered from severe erectile dysfunction, with their reproductive function temporarily affected in the course of the disease. Misdiagnosis easily occurred in the early stage of the disease. Therapeutic options mainly included doxycycline hydrochloride and rifampicin, administered orally or intravenously, which could effect a cure, though relapse might occur in some cases.
CONCLUSIONBru- cella orchitis has distinct epidemiological characteristics, with clinical manifestations of testicular pain and swelling. Though a transient disease, it affects the reproductive function of the patient before cured. It can be treated by combined oral and intravenous medication, with painkillers or ice bags for testicular pain and swelling.
