Objective To evaluate the blood-saving efficacy of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH)-hemostatics-intraoperative blood salvage (IOBS) in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. Methods One hundred and twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes, aged 18-64 yr, scheduled for elective orthopedic surgery under general anesthesia with an expected blood loss of 800 ml or more, were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 30 each) : AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group; IOBS + hemostatics group; AHH + IOBS group; AHH + bemostatics group. AHH was induced with 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 15 ml/kg infused iv at a rate of 40 ml/min immediately after tracheal intubation until the time of immediately before skin incision, IOBS was performed immediately before skin incision. Intravenous hemocoagulase 2 kU and im hemocoagulase 1 kU were injected 10 min before skin incision. The total volume of fluid intake and output, HR, MAP and CVP were recorded during the operation. Vein blood samples were taken for determination of Hb, Hct, platelet counts (Plt), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and fibrinogen concentration (Fib) .Results CVP was significantly lower in IOBS+ hemostatics group than in AHH + IOBS + hemestaties group ( P < 0.05), while no significant difference in CVP was found between AHH + IOBS and AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group and between AHH + hemostatics and AHH +IOBS + hemostaties group (P > 0.05). The volume of blood loss was significantly higher in AHH + IOBS group, and the allogenic blood transfusion volume was significantly higher, while the percentage of the patients without allogeneie blood transfusion and without FFP transfusion lower in AHH + hemostatics group than in AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group ( P < 0.05 or 0.01 ), but there were no significant differences in the above parameters between IOBS + hemostatics group and AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group ( P > 0.05). Hb, Hct, Plt and Fib were significantly higher in IOBS + hemostatics group than in AHH + IOBS + hemostafics group( P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences in the above parameters between AHH + IOBS and AHH +IOBS + hemostatics group and between AHH + hemostatics and AHH + IOBS + hemestatlcs group (P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The blood-saving efficacy of AHH-bemostatics-IOBS is good in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery and it is a safe technique.

Objective To compare respiratory syncytial virus(RSV)infection and inflammatory responses between immunocompetent BALB/c mice and immanodeficient nude mice.Methods At various time points after BSV infection of BALB/c mice and nude mice,pulmonary viral titers were assayed.Leukocvtes in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)and pulmonary histology were identified.F4/80+cells and CD49b+cells in lung tissue were examined by immunohistochemistry,and the cytokines of TNF-α,IL-12,IFN-r and IL-10 in BALF were assayed by ELISA.Results RSV titers in infected BALB/c mice and nude mice peaked on the 3rd day postinoculation,and nude mice had higher-level and more durative viral replication than BALB/c mice.RSV infection induced more severe pulmonary histopathology and larger number of leukocytes in airway in nude mice than in BALB/c mice.RSV infection enhanced more pulmonary F4/80+macrophages,CD49b+ NK cells in both mice.Furthermore infected nude mice had larger amount of pulmonary macrophages and NK cells than infected BALB/c mice.RSV infected BALB/c mice secreted more TNF-α,IL-12,IFN-r and IL-10 as compared with control BALB/c mice,and infected nude mice had hisher level of TNF-α.IL-12 and IL-10 than infected BALB/c mice.Conclusion Nude mice are good model for severe and pemistent RSV infection in immunocomprised hosts.The inflammation induced by RSV infection is not parallel with the immune response of T cells,and macrophages and NK cells are potent immunocytes and inflammatory cells in RSV infection especially when T lymphocytes are absent.

Objective To investigate the effects of hemocoagulase in preventing and treating perioperative hemorrhage in patients undergoing total hip replacement and study its effects on perioperative blood coagulation function so as to provide objective basis for better clinical usage of hemocoagulase. Methods Eighty ASA Ⅰ Ⅱ patients undergoing total hip replacement under general anesthesia were randomly and equally divided into two groups, ie, Group Ⅰ (control group) that received normal saline for 4 ml iv and normal saline for 2 ml im 10 minutes preoperatively; GroupⅡ(hemocoagulase group) that received hemocoagulase for 2 kU iv and Hemocoagulase for 1 kU im 10 minutes preoperatively. The perioperative and postoperative bleeding volume was measured respectively; meanwhile, the indices of blood coagulation function were measured during operation, immediately, one and five days after operation. Results (1) The perioperative and postoperative bleeding volume in GroupⅡ was significantly less than that in Group Ⅰ ( P

0.5).IgG、IgA and IgM of controlgroup and observation group in 10～13 years old are similar to that in 5～9 years old group. The IgG_1of control group and observation group in 5～9 years old are 5.501?0.976 and 9.715?3.746g/L respe-etively (t=5.046, P0.05),IgG_3 are0.517?0.167 and 0.828?0.578g/L respectively (t=2.132, P0.05).The IgG_2 Levels of observation groupis higher than that of control group in 10～13 years old(P

Objective To analyze the prevalent feature and variant tendency of Scrub Typhus in Guangdong Province from 2006 to 2012, and provide a basis of strategy and measure on prevention and protection of Scrub Typhus. Methods Clinical information of all individual cases was gained from China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. Cochran-Armitage trend χ2 test was used to describe the variance of Scrub Typhus incidence and the clinical cases of 2013 were predicted by autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model, while descriptive epidemiological analysis was adopted to describe the endemic distribution, seasonal characteristics and population distribution of Scrub Typhus. Results A total of 8 163 Scrub typhus cases were reported in Guangdong Province from 2006 to 2012. Annual mean incidence of the disease was 1.15/100 000 with the incidence showing an upward tendency (χ2 = 3 191.976, P < 0.01). There were 14 dead clinical cases reported with a fatality rate to be 1.72‰(14/8 163). Totally 3 166 people were predicted to infect Scrub Typhus in 2013 by ARIMA model. The disease was prevalent from the end of May to early October and the peak time was in late August (Z = 2 303.71, P < 0.01). The top five cities developed Scrub Typhus were Zhaoqing, Guangzhou, Yunfu, Shaoguan and Qingyuan. Male-female ratio was 1.00 ∶ 1.08 in all reported cases in which 52.78%(4 309/8 163) of them aged from 40 to 65 years old and 59.30%(4 841/8 163) of them were farmers. Conclusions The incidence of Scrub Typhus is rising in Guangdong Province, with the prevalent peak in summer and autumn, and rural populations are at high risk. The most effective preventions are strengthening health education , enhancing individual protection and protecting key populations in special districts.

BACKGROUND:Salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule is a traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of fractures due to activating blood circulation to dissipate blood stasis, reducing sweling and pain. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule on the fracture healing in a rat model of closed femoral fractures. METHODS: Rats were randomly divided into salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group, physiological saline group and normal group. In the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group and physiological saline group, rat models of closed femoral fractures were prepared, and then given physiological saline and salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule 2 pils by intragastric administration. In the normal group, rats were housed normaly. At 7, 14 and 28 days after fractures, hematoxylin-eosin staining conditions, serum osteocalcin, the expression of colagen type I, and the expression of protein and mRNA calus transforming growth factor-beta 1 were observed in the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group and physiological saline group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Hematoxylin-eosin staining demonstrated that at 7 days after fractures, no significant difference was found in pathological changes of femoral fracture in salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group and physiological saline group. At 14 and 28 days after fractures, pathological repair was more obvious in the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group than in the physiological saline group. (2) At 3 and 7 days after fractures, serum osteocalcin and the expression of type I colagen were significantly increased in the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group and physiological saline group (P < 0.05), and the expression trend was consistent in both groups. The expression was always higher in the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group than in the physiological saline group, and significant differences were found at 14 and 28 days after fractures (P < 0.01). (3) Transforming growth factor beta 1 expression reached a peak at 3 days after fractures, gradualy reduced, increased at 14 days (the second peak), and diminished at 28 days in the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group and physiological saline group. The expression trend of transforming growth factor beta 1 was consistent in the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group and physiological saline group. At 7, 14 and 28 days, the transforming growth factor beta 1 expression was higher in the salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule group than in the physiological saline group. (4) Results showed that salvia miltiorrhiza bone-setting capsule could promote fracture healing, and its mechanism was probably associated with serum osteocalcin, the expression of colagen type I and transforming growth factor-β1.
