Objective To detect the effect of the operative and non-operative therapy on acute mesenteric venous thrombosis (AMVT).Methods The documents of 18 AMVT patients from Jan 1990 to May 2006 were reviewed retrospectively.Results In 18 patients, 12 cases with intestinal necrosis received operation, among them, 2 cases received the operation only and 10 cases added with anti-coagulation therapy further. The rest 6 patients received non-operative therapy. All of 18 patients recovered well.Conclusion Non-operative therapy is safe and effective for the patients without intestinal necrosis. Post-operative anti-coagulation therapy is very important for the patients received the operative therapy.

Objective To observe the changes of the height of intervertebral discs of the segments adjacent to the fusional and instrumental area after the operation and the relation between the changes of height of intervetebral discs in the adjacent segments and the angle of the pedicle screw.Methods Thirty-one patients who underwent internal fixation from September 2004 to March 2006 were retrospectively analyzed.The intervertebral discs height of adjacent segment was studied.The influence of"Suspensory fixation"on the changes of height of adjacent intervertebral discs was compared.The relation between the changes of the height of the upper adjacent intervertebral discs and the angle of pedicle screw was analyzed.Results The mean follow-up period for the patients was 13.5 months(10-16 months).In the operating-group,the height of the adjacent intervertebral disc decreased slightly,but the changes had no statistical significance(P>0.05).Between the group fixed between L5 and S1 and group fixed between L4and L5,the changes of the height of the upper adjacent intervertebral discs had no obvious difference(P>0.05).In the group fixed between L4 and L5,there had no obvious difference between the changes of the height of the upper adjacent intervertebral discs and the changes of the height of the lower one(P>0.05).When the operating-group were divided into two groups according to the angle of pedicle screw (<6°or>6°),the changes of the height of the upper adjacent intervertebral discs had no obvious difference(P>0.05).But there had positive and correlative relation between changes of the height of the adjacent intervertebral discs and the angle of pedicle screw(r=0.373,P=0.039).Conclusion "Suspensory fixation"has no different influence on the changes of height of adjacent intervertebral discs.There has no difference on the risk of degeneration between upper and lower segment adjacent to the fusional area.There has positive and correlative relation between the changes of height of the upper intervertebral discs adjacent to the fusional area and the angle of pedicle screw,that is,the bigger the angle is,the more clearly the height of adjacent intervertebral discs will change.

Objective To investigate the relationship between neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD) and substance P in rats suffering from spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods 60 male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighted (220±40) g, were randomly divided into three groups: sham group (n=20), normal group (n=20) and model group (n=20) and then were subdivided into subgroups of 24 h, 1 week, 3 weeks, and 5 weeks respectively after SCI. SCI model was established at thoracic 10 segment of rat with NYU impactor device. The colon tissue of the rats was resected and stored. Substance P in serum and tissue was measured by ELISA. The tissue was examined by real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting to analyze the expression of substance P. Results The colon intestinal transmission function decreased and delineated at minimum value at 3 weeks in the model group. There was statistical significance with respect to the content of substance P in serum and tissue between the sham group and model group at 3 weeks. The expression of substance P in the sham group was (3.12±0.51) times of the model group (P<0.05). Conclusion Substance P may take part in NBD after SCI in rats.

This study is to investigate protective effect of safflor yellow B (SYB) against vascular endothelial cells (VECs) injury induced by angiotensin-II (Ang-II). VECs were cultured and divided into six groups: control group, Ang-II group, Ang-II + SYB (1 micromolL(-1)) group, Ang-II + SYB (10 micromolL(-1)) group, Ang-II + SYB (100 micromolL(-1)) group and Ang- II + verapamil (10 micromolL(-1)) group. Except control group, all of VECs in other groups were treated with Ang- II at the final concentration of 0.1 micromolL(-1). Mitochondria membrane potential (MMP) and free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) were measured by laser scanning confocal microscopy, and mitochondria complex IV activity was detected by BCA method. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in VECs were analyzed by fluorescence detector and apoptosis of VECs was observed by flow cytometer. Caspase 3 was determined by Western blotting method. Comparing with control group, Ang-II was able to increase [Ca2+]i and ROS level, decrease MMP level, inhibit complex IV activity and enhance caspase 3 activity in VECs, as a result, enhance apoptosis of VECs. But SYB could significantly reduce the result induced by Ang- II relying on different dosages (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). SYB was able to eliminate the effect of Ang-II on VECs via regulating [Ca2+]i, mitochondrial structure and function and inhibiting apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE To set up and evaluate the microscopic observation drug susceptibility assay(MODS)technology and use it to detect rapidly Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MTB).METHODS The 24-hole cell culture plate method of liquid culture were used to set up MODS technology.The MODS technology was used to detect MTB and non-M.tuberculosis(NMT)isolates comparing with Lowenstein-Jensen(L-J) method.RESULTS When bacterial concentration was 3?103 CFU/ml,the time of reading test-result was the seventh day by MODS;four kinds of NMT(M.phlei,M.kansasii,M.chelonaeand M.marinum) in the liquid medium in the observation was similar to the growth of cording,it was difficult to distinct from the cording of MTB in the liquid medium;When using the 4-Nitro-benzoic acid 800 ?g/ml,thiophene-2-carboxylic acid hydrazine 2.5 ?g/ml for testing conditions,the correct diagnosis can be improved;the test results of clinical isolates by MODS were highly concordance rate with the results of L-J.If the results of L-J was the golden standard,the sensitivity,specificity,positive and negative predictive value as well as accuracy by MODS was 95.7%,100%,100%,99.9% and 97% respectively.CONCLUSIONS The results of MODS in detection of MTB are highly concordance wih the results of L-J method;MODS assay can be used for rapid detection of tuberculosis,with a rapid,simple,inexpensive,and other advantages.

Objective To explore the diagnosis, treatment and pathogenesis of solitary rectal ulcer syndrome (SRUS) in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods 260 patients with SCI accepted rectal diseases survey, anal examination and anus straight endoscopic. Those who had rectal ulcer also performed biopsy, and patients who had been diagnosed as SRUS were evaluated by the index of International bowel function basic SCI data set, then further accepted non-operative or surgical treatment, and regular reexamination with anal straight colonoscopy for clinical evaluation after discharge. Results and Conclusion Bowel dysfunction, constipation, and anal rectum prolapsed, improper uses of glycerine enema were important causes of SRUS after SCI. Non-operative therapy as well as strengthening defecate management could be an effective treatment for SRUS after SCI.

Objective To explore the correlation of total IgE and childhood atopic dermatitis (AD) in maternal serum and newborn cord blood, as well as its clinical significance of allergen testing. Methods Thirty-five cases diagnosed as AD (AD group) were selected, and other 35 children who were not diagnosed as AD (control group) were randomly selected from a birth cohort established in 2009—2011. The total IgE levels were detected by ELISA in maternal serum and newborn cord blood. The serum specific IgE antibody level was detected by quantitative immunoblotting method. Results The serum total IgE level was significantly higher in mother and newborn cord blood in AD group than that in control group (χ2=16.568 and 14.933, P<0.01). Compared to control group, there was a significantly higher positive rate of mother serum allergen includ?ing dust mites, house dust, ragweed pollen, song kind of pollen, poplar, surname and elm pollen, mould, shrimp, marine fish, in AD group (P<0.05). There was a significantly higher positive rate of artemisia pollen and fungi IgE in newborn cord blood in AD group (P<0.05). Conclusion The increased total IgE in maternal serum may play a predictive effect on infants suf?fering from AD. There is no obvious consistency in allergic state between mothers and infants.
