Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2016;15(10):978-981
Objective To explore the prevention and treatment of complications of vascular injury after inguinal hernia repair.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional and descriptive study was adopted.The clinical data of 22 patients with vascular injury after inguinal hernia repair who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between June 2005 and March 2016 were collected.Observation indicators included:(1) the vascular complications after inguinal hernia repair:vascular injury,peritoneal interstitial hemorrhage or hematoma formation,thrombosis and vascular embolization,(2) treatment,(3) follow-up.Patients were followed up by telephone interview at 15 days after discharge up to April 2016,and conditions of patients,recovery of symptoms and subsequent pharmacotherapy were detected.Results (1) The vascular complications after inguinal hernia repair:of 22 patients,peritoneal interstitial hemorrhage or hematoma formation was detected in 8 patients (vascular injury of corona mortis in 2 patients,inferior epigastric artery injury in 3 patients and unexplained peritoneal interstitial hemorrhage in 3 patients),femoral vein injury in 3 patients,femoral artery injury in 1 patient,deep vein thrombosis of the double lower limbs in 8 patients (including 2 with pulmonary embolism) and femoral and popliteal artery embolism in 2 patients.(2) Treatments:20 of 22 patients had good therapeutic effect,1 patient with arterial embolism received timely treatment avoiding the necrosis of limbs,1 ischemic necrosis of partial toes and the other patients had good effect through vascular repair or construction.One patient with inferior epigastric artery injury and 1 with femoral vein injury died of hemorrhagic shock.(3) Follow-up:20 of 22 patients were followed up for 2 weeks,with good conditions.Patients' hemorrhage had been improved.The symptoms of patients with deep vein thrombosis and arterial embolism of lower limbs didn't become obviously aggravated,and they took the medicine as medical advice.Conclusion The different treatments are conducted according to the occuring characteristics of vascular complications,with better outcomes.

Objective To observe the evaluation value of serum high mobility group protein B1(HMGB-1) and APACHE Ⅱ score in severity degree and prognosis of the patients with acute pancreatitis(AP).Methods Sixty patients with AP were collected,including 20 cases in the mild AP group(MAP),20 cases in moderate AP group(MSAP) and 20 cases in the severe AP group (SAP).The HMGB-1 level in each group was dynamically monitored on 1,3,7 d after admission and its relationship with AP severity and APACHE Ⅱ score was analyzed.According to clinical outcomes,these cases were divided into the survival group(48 cases) and death group(12 cases),and the value of serum HMGB-1 level and APACHE-Ⅱ scores for evaluating the prognosis was analyzed.Results The HMGB-1 values on 1,3,7 d in the MAP group were(2.16±0.35),(4.34±0.96),(1.21±0.33)μg/L respectively,which in the MSAP group were(7.78 ±1.32),(10.45 ± 2.36),(6.92 ± 1.55) μg/L respectively,and which in the SAP group were(14.12±2.64),(27.53±8.19),(11.34± 2.57)μg/L respectively.The HMGB-1 levels in the SAP group were significantly higher than those in the MAP group and MSAP group,the differences were statistically significant (P< 0.01,P< 0.05);the HMGB-1 level had statistical difference between the MSAP group and MAP group(P<0.05);the HMGB1l score on 3 d in the SAP group was increased with△3-1 HMGB1 increas(difference value of HMGB1 on 1,3 d),the both showed the positive correlation(r=0.725,P<0.05).But the APACHE-Ⅱ score in the MSAP and MAP groups had no obvious change with the HMGB-1 level increase,the difference was not statistically significant(r=0.127,0.114,P>0.05).Serum HMGB1 level and APACHE-lⅡ score in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group(P<0.05).Conclusion The serum HMGB1 level has good correlation with APACHE-Ⅱ score in AP;their combination can serve the sensitive indicator for predicting disease condition severity and prognosis of AP.

Objective To investigate the effects of VEGF-induced expression of Survivin by colon cancer cells (LOVO, HCT116) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods VEGF was used to stimu-late the LOVO, HCT116, HUVECs. We used RT-PCR and Western blot to estimate the expression of Survivin in different cells, and immunocytochemistry to investigate the expression level and site of Survivin protein. Results Survivin was expressed highly in the cytoplasm and was upregulated with the induction of VEGF. In HUVECs, Sur-vivin expression was not obvious but significantly upregulated with the inductioin of VEGF in the cytoplasm and nu-cleus. Conclusion The expression of Survivin mRNA and protein are upregulated by VEGF stimulation. The level and distribution of Survivin are different in tumor cell lines and non-tumorgenicity cells.

Objective To observe the effect of rhubarb enema on serum level of high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods A total of 60 cases of patients with SAP in our hospital were collected from October 2014 to October 2016,and were randomly divided into the observation group and control group (30 cases in each group).Serum levels of HMGB1 were dynamically detected on the 1st,3rd and 5th day after admission.The acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) was conducted.The recovery time of gastrointestinal function and time for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) were observed.Results On the 1st day after admission,no statistically significant difference was found in serum level of HMGB1 between the two groups (P>0.05).The serum level of HMGB1 in the observation group was obviously decreased on the 5th day after admission,which was lower than that in the control group,there was statistically significant difference(P<0.05).In the observation group,the value of difference between serum level of HMGB1 on the 1st day after admission and that on the 3rd day after admission was significantly negatively related with the APACHE Ⅱ score on the 3rd day after admission(r=-0.604,P<0.05).In the observation group,the remission time of abdominal pain and abdominal distension,first time of exhaust and defecation and time for CRRT were significantly shorter than those in the control group,there were statistically significant differences (P<0.05).Conclusion Rhubarb could improvesymptoms and prognosis of patients with SAP through effectively inhibit the expression of HMGB1.

Objective To observe the ultrastructure of theca interna of the de-endothelium allogenetic blood vessels in dogs by transmission and scanning electron microscope at different phases. Methods The endothelium of the allogenetic blood vessels were first removed and cryodensiccated, and were then end to end anastomosed to canine femoral artery. Samples were collected and observed with scanning and transmission electron microscope on the first, second, fourth, eighth, twelfth, sixteenth, and twentieth week after transplantation, respectively. Results A layer of cellulose membrane was formed on the surface of allogenetic blood vessels one week after transplantation; Fusiform cells were observed at the anastomotic stoma of the allogenetic blood vessels two weeks after transplantation, and theca interna, which was covered by fusiform cells and elliptical erythrocytes, was formed twelve weeks later; Slightly hyperplastic smooth muscle cells and collagenous fibers were observed under the endothelium twelve to twenty weeks after transplantation. Conclusion The endothelium cells could cover the surface of the allogenetic blood vessels without remarkable hyperplasia of intima during a short period of time, which may suggest the satisfactory histocompatibility of canine allogenetic blood vessels.
