Objective To observe the clnical effects of influence of tanshinone type ⅡA sulfonate on preventing hepatic artery thrombosis after transplantation.Methods A total of 60 patients after liver transplantation were randomly individed into the treatment group and control group, each 30 patients. The treatment group received tanshinone ⅡA sodium sulfonate treatment (60 mg qd, ivgtt continuous 10d) , while the control group used conventional heparinization. The blood coagulation index and the thrombelastograph variables were detected after 7 days and the hepatic artery resistance index (RI) was detected by using Doppler ultrasonography. The postoperative complications and mortality rates were analyzed.Results Although it had little improvement on the coagulation function after liver transplantation, tanshinone ⅡA sodium sulfonate had significant improvement on the time of thrombelastograph parameters reaction (6.35 ± 1.59 minvs. 5.21 ± 1.37 min,t=2.453) and maximum amplitude (58.07 ± 5.42 mmvs. 61.67 ± 5.63 mm,t=-2.532). It showed that RI have significantly statistical difference between the two groups after treatment (0.73 ± 0.11vs. 0.62 ± 0.10;t=-2.948,P<0.01). During the trial, the control group had 2 cases of postoperative complications, HAT and bleeding.Conclusions The Tanshinone ⅡA sodium after liver transplantation can improve the clotting mechanism, preventing HAT.

BACKGROUND:On the basis of thorough debridement, homochronous anterior or staging posterior fixation has been a standard scheme for spinal tuberculosis. Numerous studies confirmed that above approach has obtained good effects, but the anterior approach has some disadvantages, such as complex anatomic structure, great trauma, relatively more complications, and difficult operation and fixator implantation. OBJECTIVE:To observe spinal stabilization and deformity correction in patients with single-segment thoracic/lumbar spinal tuberculosis after posterior debridement and interbody fusion. METHODS:Clinical data of 36 patients with single-segment thoracic/lumbar spinal tuberculosis undergoing one-stage posterior debridement and interbody fusion in the Guangxi Yulin Orthopedics Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2008 to January 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 2 cases in single T11/12 segment, 4 in T12/L1 segments, 6 in L3/4 segments, 22 in L4/5segments and 2 in L5/S1 segments. Of them, 24 patients suffered from different degrees of spinal nerve injury. At 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery, al patients were folowed up. Bone graft fusion, kyphosis correction, functional recovery of the spinal cord and complications were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al patients were folowed up for 24-38 months. Cobb angle of kyphosis and spinal stenosis rate were significantly improved at 2 years after treatment (P < 0.05). The lumbar back pain symptoms were significantly improved in final folow-up (P < 0.05), with an intervertebral fusion rate of 100%. No lesion residue and recurrence, correction loss, fixation loosening or displacement was found. These results demonstrated that in patients with single-segment thoracic/lumbar spinal tuberculosis, posterior debridement and interbody fusion can effectively reconstruct spinal stabilization, correct deformity, and promote the functional recovery of spinal nerves.

BACKGROUND: Animal experiments demonstrated that adding ultraviolet blood irradiation and oxygenation (UBIO) in cardioplegic solutions has myocardial protection during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).OBJECTIVE: To investigate the myocardial protective effect of UBIO as cardiac arresting solution in the process of CPB in old patients undergoing valve replacement.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled trial of biochemistry level was performed at Department of Cardiac Surgery, Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital, from October 2006 to April 2008.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 46 old patients scheduled for heart valve replacement were randomly divided into test group and control group, with 23 patients in each group.METHODS: The test group was infuoed with the UBIO blood as a cardiac arresting solution via the ascending aorta. The UBIO blood accumulated from the subclavian vein (10 mL/kg) was heparinized and dealt with the ultraviolet irradiation (wave length 240-300 nm) and oxygenation. And then it was infused for the first antegrade coronary perfusion when the ascending aorta was cross-clamped, when the UBIO blood was produced, the equivalent quantitative saline was infused from another vein. The 4:1 cold oxygenated blood hyperhalemia cardioplegia was perfused and then maintained for 30 minutes. The control group was the same as the test group except that the cardiac arresting solution presented without the 4:1 cold oxygenated blood.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Blood samples were withdrawn from coronary venous sinus before cross-clamping and at minutes 5 and 10 after aorta declamping, to measure the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA). Before the beginning of CPB, and at hours 4, 24, and 48 after the end of CPB, venous blood was drawn to test the serum cardiac troponin I(cTnI) and creatine kinase isozyme (CK-MB).RESULTS: MDA levels of plasma were less in the test group than that of the control group after aorta declamping (P < 0.05),while the SOD activity was obvious greater than the control group (P < 0.05). At hours 4-48 after CPB, CK-MB and cTnl levels were lower in the test group than the control group (P< 0.05).CONCLUSION: Antegrade coronary first perfusion with UBIO during CPB has evident cardiac protective in old patients undergoing valve replacement by elevating SOD activity, decreasing MDA level, relieving myocardial reperfusion injury, as well as decreasing myocardial damage markers levels.

Objective To assesses the value of the Pipkin fracture classification on the treatment and prognosis of Pipkin fracture. Methods A total of 71 patients with Pipkin fractures treated from January 2002 to January 2007 were followed up and the detailed information of 63 patients were obtained. The clinical and radiographic evaluation criteria of Thompson was employed to evaluate the outcome, analyze the results and discuss the correlation between Pipkin fracture type and prognosis and hence propose the significance of Pipkin classification on the prognosis. Results There was no statistical difference in aspect of the outcome between type Pipkin Ⅰ , Ⅱ injury and type Pipkin Ⅳ injury (types Pipkin Ⅰ and Ⅱ injury combined with minimum fracture, with fragment < 1 cm,P>0. 05). There showed statistical difference in outcome between types Pipkin Ⅰ , Ⅱ injury and type Pipkin Ⅳ injury (types Pipkin Ⅰ and Ⅱ injury combined with acetabular rim fracture, P <0. 05). Conclusions Pipkin fracture classification system needs a further improvement. The type Pipkin Ⅳ injury that is combined with types Pipkin Ⅰ , Ⅱ , Ⅲ injuries with minimum fracture (fragment < 1 cm) of the acetabular rim should be incorporated into types Pipkin Ⅰ ,Ⅱ , Ⅲ injury. Type Pipkin Ⅳ injury refers to types Pipkin Ⅰ ,Ⅱ , Ⅲ injuries, with major fracture of the acetabular rim and the hip joint instability. In addition, the Pipkin fracture type involving the fracture line, femoral neck and intertrochanteric region is hard to treat clinically and has poor prognosis, suggesting that this type of injury should be considered as special type Pipkin Ⅲ injury.

In this study, the effect of prophylactic anti-inflammation on the development of smoke-induced emphysema was investigated. Young male guinea-pigs aged 1.5-2 months (weighing 198.3+/-26.9 g) were randomly divided into 4 groups: group A (cigarette smoke exposure only), group B (cigarette smoke exposure plus pentoxifylline-rich (PTX, 10 mg/d) forage feeding), group C (cigarette smoke exposure plus intermittent cortical steroid injection (Triamcinolone acetonide, 3 mg, i.m., every three weeks) and control group (group D: animals with sham smoke exposure, raised under the same conditions). Animals in group A, B and C were exposed to smoke of cigarettes for 1 to 1.5 h twice a day, 5 days a week. All animals were killed at the 16th week and followed by morphometrical analysis of the midsagittal sectioned lung slices. Smoke exposure of 16 weeks resulted in visible emphysematous development in Group A but not in Group B and C. It was evidenced by the indicator of air-space size, mean linear intercept (Lm): 120.6+/-16.0 microm in Group A; 89.8+/-9.2 microm in Group B and 102.4+/-17.7 microm in Group C. The average Lm in either group B or group C was shorter than that in Group A (ANOVA and Newman-Keuls test, F=8.80, P=0.0002) but comparable to that (94.8+/-13.2 microm) in group D (P>0.05). It is concluded that long-term prophylactic anti-inflammation inhibits pulmonary emphysema induced by cigarette smoking in the guinea pigs.
