The Journal of Clinical Anesthesiology 2016;32(3):213-216
Objective To explore the interventional effect of recombinant human brain natri-uretic peptide(rhBNP)on the patients with sepsis induced myocardial dysfunction by comparing N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(Nt-proBNP),troponin and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).Methods Forty septic patients were admitted into department of critical care medicine from February 2013 to May 201 5.They were randomly divided into control group and rhBNP group,with 20 patients in each group.Both groups received early goal directed therapy(EGDT),and rhBNP group re-ceived additional therapy of rhBNP 1.5 μg/kg bolus,and then 0.075 μg·kg-1 ·min-1 for 48 h.Con-trol group received saline in the same way.Vasoactive agents were used to maintain blood pressure. Concentration of plasma Nt-proBNP and troponin were determined at baseline,on days 1,3,and 7 day by point of care (POCT ).LVEF was also detected by transthoracic echocardiography. Results Concentrations of plasma Nt-proBNP and troponin in rhBNP group were lower than control group on days 1 and 3 (P <0.05).On day 3,levels of Nt-proBNP and troponin in both groups were higher than the days 1 and 7 (P <0.01).LVEF in the rhBNP group was higer than control group on days 3 and 7 (P <0.05 or P <0.01);On day 3,LVEF in both groups was significantly lower than the pre-therapy and day 7 (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01 ).Conclusion rhBNP can improve sepsis induced myocardial dysfunction by decreasing the Nt-proBNP and troponin levels with increased left ventricular ejection fraction.

Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2016;35(8):989-991
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of points injection of mouse nerve growth factor in treating sciatic nerve injury.MethodAcupuncture point injection of injectable mouse nerve growth factorwas performed in 60 patients with sciatic nerve injury. Points Huantiao(GB30)and Zusanli(ST36)were selected. Treatment was given once daily, for a total of 30 times. Sensory and motor functions were assessed (MS and SS) and electromyography (EMG) was performed before and after treatment to compare motor nerve conduction velocities (MCV) and sensory nerve conduction velocities (SCV) in the injured nerves and EMG changes in the musclescontrolled by the injured nerves.ResultAfter treatment, nerve function was restored to more than S3M3, with an efficacy rate of 81.7%, in 49 patients. Neuro-electrophysiological study showed that regenerative potentials occurred, accounting for 71.7%,in43patients. Denervated potentials were fewer after treatment than before; there was a significant difference (P<0.05). The mean MCV value increased after treatment compared with before; there was a significant difference (P<0.05). ConclusionAcupuncture point injection of mouse nerve growth factor can markedly improve sensory and motor functions in the regions controlled by the injured sciatic nerve. It provides an effective way to promote the repair of sciatic nerves and the reconstruction of limb function after the nerves are injured.

Objective:To explore the role of clinical pharmacists in the diagnosis and treatment of drug-induced diseases. Meth-ods:Clinical pharmacists analyzed the abnormal changes in the patients and looked for drug factors during the ward round with physi-cians. Results:Clinical pharmacists found drug-induced diseases and irrational drug use, and proposed the solutions accepted by phy-sicians. Conclusion:Clinical pharmacists should actively participate in the diagnosis and treatment of drug-induced diseases.

Objective To summarize the efficacy of epirubicin chemotherapy by intra-iliac arteral infusion for the high risk patients of postoperative bladder cancer. Methods Eighty-six patients with the bladder cancer at high risk of recurrence who had undergone the bladder-sparing surgery were divided into two groups.Thirty-one patients were treated by intra-iliac arterial infusion chemotherapy of epirubicin and the remaining 55 patients had no chemotherapy.An analysis on recurrence related factors was made by multivariate Cox regression analysis models.And Kaplan-Meier curves were compared using the log-rank test on the disease-free between the two groups. Results Multi-recurrence associated with a higher grade and postoperative intra-iliac arterial infusion chemotherapy of epirubicin were significantly important factors,the former being risk factor and the latter being protective factor of cancer recurrence in bladder respectively.The recurrence of 9 in 31 patients (29%) with intra-iliac arterial infusion chemotherapy of epirubicin was significantly lower than that of 30 in 55 patients (54%) without chemotherapy ( P

50Gy) in solitary or limited BM subgroup seemed to survive longer. However in the Cox mu ltivariate analysis, only KPS, numbers of BM, extracranial systemic metastasis a nd chemotherapy were significant prognostic factors. Just as those of RPA subgro ups, the median survival from the start of WBRT was 3, 9, 16 months in 3 PI subg roups respectively.Conclusions:Overall survival in BM from breast cancer remains p oor. KPS, numbers of BM, extracranial systemic metastasis and chemotherapy were independent prognostic factors. RPA classification can predict the prognosis of patients with BM from breast cancer, so can the PI model.

Objective To study the characteristics and diagnosis of renal sinus lipomatosis (RSL) complicated with renal staghorn calculi, and report our preliminary experience on percutaneous nephrolithotripsy for the disease. Methods A total of 547 patients with complex renal calculi were admitted to our hospital from January 2005 to June 2007. In 2 of them, RSL complicated with renal staghorn calculi was diagnosed by B-ultrasonography, CT, and MRI. Both the patients were female, aged 42 and 82 years respectively. B-ultrasonography-guided percutaneous nephrolithotripsy was performed on the two patients without removing the kidneys.Results Totally, 7 ml and 5 ml of stones were removed respectively from the two patients by percutaneous nephrolithotripsy. No retained calculi were found by KUB performed one week postoperation. Biopsy of the submucosal fat obtained from the renal pelvis during the operation showed hyperplasia and fibrosis of fatty tissues and inflammatory effusion. The patients were followed up for half a year, during which no recurrence of renal calculi occurred, and no abnormal fatty tissues were found at the renal sinus or surrounding the kidney. Conclusions Imaging examination is valuable for the diagnosis of RSL. B-ultrasonography-guided percutaneous nephrolithotripsy is safe and effective for RSL complicated with renal calculi.

Objective To analyse the relationship of blood deficiency syndrome’s principal components of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and mental state and quality of life. Methods 23 cases of CFS blood deficiency syndrome were collected to pick up principal components, and combined with mental state (SCL-90) and quality of life (SF-36). Then, the relationship was analyzed. Results There was significant relationship between CFS blood syndrome principal component 1 and GH, VT and BP in SF-36. And there was significant relationship between CFS blood syndrome principal component 2 and patients’ somatization, obsessive compulsive, interpersonal sensitive, depression, anxiety, hostility and paranoid in SCL-90, and between principal component 1 and somatization. Conclusion There were two principal components in CFS blood deficiency syndrome, one influenced patients’ quality of life, the other influenced their mental state.

Objective To analyze the relationship of Qi and blood deficiency syndrome's principal components of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and TCM syndrome differentiation. Methods Syndrome principal components of 25 CFS Qi deficiency patients and 23 CFS blood deficiency patients were researched and combined with TCM syndrome differentiation, then their relationship were analyzed. Results There was significantly positive relationship between CFS Qi deficiency syndrome principal component 1 and CFS Qi deficiency syndrome. And there were significantly positive relationships between CFS blood deficiency syndrome principal component l, 2 and CFS blood deficiency syndrome. Conclusion The CFS Qi deficiency syndrome and blood deficiency syndrome's principal components were accord with TCM syndrome differentiation. We could improve the TCM syndrome differentiation's impersonality and nicety, and predigest TCM diagnosis program if we combined two analysis ways.
