Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2006;27(8):863-866
Objective: To establish a white noise-induced stress ulcer model in rats and to assess the changes of gastric parietal cell configuration and acid secretion under noise stress. Methods: Rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: NS 4 h,8 h and control groups. The rat NS model was induced by white noise. The pH values of gastric juice were measured by the pH/mV pH meter and the gastric ulcer index (UI) was evaluated. The stomach tissue was processed for immunofluorescence detection and the β subunit of H+, K+-ATPase was immunostained. The gastric parietal cell configuration was observed with conventional microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscope. Results: (1)The pH value of NS 4 h group (2.22±0.05) was significantly lower than that of control group (2.59±0.21, P<0.05), but higher than that of NS 8 h group (1.31±0.06, P<0.01). (2) The UI of NS 4 h group (10.5±1.29) was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05), but significantly lower than that of NS 8 h group (34.36 ± 2.22, P < 0.01). (3) The reticular pattern parietal cells in NS 4 h group (55.5±3.42)/100 was significantly higher than that in control group (42.5±3.70/100, P<0.01), but lower than that in NS 8 h groups (62.0±3.46/100, P<0.05). (4) The pH was negatively related with both UI (r=-0.85, P<0.05) and the number of reticular parietal cells (r=-0.89, P<0.05). Conclusion: A white noise-induced stress ulcer model has been successfully established in rats. NS rats develop gastric mucosal lesions with increased acid secretion, which is closely related with the oxyntic function of parietal cells.

Background Optic neuritis is closely associated with multiple sclerosis (MS).Its pathogenesis is uncompletely clear,and less basic researches are carried out at home and abroad. Objective This study was to reveal the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) in the optic nerve of rat with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) and to provide a theoretical evidence for the research of the relationship of optic neuritis with MS. Methods Fifty clean Wistar rats were randomized into the control group and immune 8,12,18 and 25 days groups.Myelencephalon was collected from 5 guinea pigs to prepare the homogenate and mixed with the isovolumetric complete Freud' s adjuvant (CFA).The 0.5 ml mixed antigen emulsifier was subcutancously injected into the 4 maps together with Bordetella pertussis 0.2 ml under the cutancous of dorsalis pedis at 0 and 48 hours to induce the EAE.Behavior of the rats was evaluated to score the neurological function.The optical nerve sections were prepared 8,12,18 and 25 days after immunology for the histopathological examination,and immunochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the expression of MBP in optic nerve.The use of the animals complied with the Regulation for the Administration of Affairs Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission. Results The disorder of motor nerve was seen 12 days following the immune,and the clinical neural functional scores were significantly higher 12 day and peaked on 18 days myelination and then gradually reduced.The histopathological examination showed that the irregular alignment of neural fiber was found at 12 days,and changes of cellular structure,edema of neural shaft bunch were observed at 18 days.However,the abnormal cells were significantly less 25 days following the immune.Immunochemistry showed that the MBP was expressed mainly in the myelination of optic nerve fibers.The numbers of positive cells for MBP were (115.75±26.49)cells/5 fields at the 12th day,showing a significant lowing in comparison with (167.44±22.49)cells/5 fields of control group (t=4.537,P<0.05 ).The positive cells were lest at the 18th day with the values ( 75.57 ± 34.54) cells/5 fields ( t =6.362,P<0.01 ).At the 25th day,positive cells increased to ( 117.63 ± 13.78) cells/5 fields,which still was lower than those of the control group ( t =4.068,P<0.05 ).Western blot assay illuminated that with the prolong of immune time,MBP/β-actin ratio in optic nerve was gradually reduced and followed the same pattern at the 12th day( t =4.639,P<0.05 ).At 18 days after immune in comparison with the control group,the expression of MBP/β-actin ratio in optic nerve was the least (t=8.427,P<0.01). Conclusions MBP can be degraded in rat optic nerve.This is a further evidence that optic neuritis is a severe demyelination disease.It is clearly related to MS.

Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) is a breakthrough in the field of hepatobiliary surgery.The remnant liver regeneration was stimulated during the first stage of the operation,and the radical resection of the tumor could be successfully carried out during the second stage of the operation.ALPPS is a new approach for patients with tumor which is previously considered unresectable during one hospital stay.In April 2014,a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the right liver and liver cirrhosis was admitted to the Southwest Hospital.Preoperative examination confirmed that the ratio of the remnant liver volume to the standard liver volume was 26.9%,which indicated that the patient was inappropriate to receive radical resection of HCC.Therefore,totally laparoscopic ALPPS was applied.In the first stage of the operation,the portal vein ligation associated with liver hanging tape placement and in situ splitting of liver were carried out after hanging the Glisson's pedicle under the laparoscope.Thirteen days after the first stage of the operation,the ratio of the remnant liver volume to the standard liver volume was 40.6%.The second stage of the operation was carried out 14 days after the first stage of the operation.The right hepatic pedicle and right hepatic vein were transected with a stapler.The tumor was removed after full mobilization of the right liver.The distance between the resection margin to the tumor was 1.5 cm.No complications were detected after the first stage of the operation,while the patient was complicated with pleural effusion after the second stage of the operation and was cured by pleural puncture and drainage.The patient was discharged at postoperative day 9 and followed up at postoperative month 1.The results of follow-up confirmed that the hepatic function was normal,and no mass occupying lesions and pleural effusion were detected.Totally laparoscopic ALPPS is safe and feasible with satisfactory short-term efficacy.

BACKGROUND:Tranexamic acid is a synthetic anti-fibrinolytic drug, and can effectively control blood loss after total knee arthroplasty through vein. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of tranexamic acid in reducing blood loss after primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:From 2014 to 2015, 100 patients from the Department of Lower Limb, Sichuan Orthopaedic Hospital underwent primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty, and randomly divided into test group which used tranexamic acid and control group which used tranexamic acid, with 50 cases in each group. 1 g tranexamic acid was infused into the vein at 10 minutes before total knee arthroplasty in the test group, but tranexamic acid was not given in the control group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The amount of total blood loss, postoperative wound drainage in 24 hours, and the amount of blood transfusion were significantly less in the test group than in the control group (P < 0.05). No significant differences in intraoperative blood loss and the number of patients receiving blood transfusion were found between the test and control groups. No significant difference in preoperative hemoglobin levels was detected before surgery, but hemoglobin levels were decreased after surgery between the two groups. Postoperative hemoglobin levels were apparently higher in the test group than in the control group after surgery. At 24 hours after surgery, no significant difference in coagulation was detectable between the two groups. At 6 days, double lower limb vein color Doppler ultrasound examination did not reveal deep vein thrombosis in both groups. These findings verify that treatment with tranexamic acid in the vein before primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty can evidently diminish the amount of perioperative blood loss and blood transfusion, reduce the risk and cost of blood transfusion, which is good for rehabilitation and does not increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis.
