Objective To investigate the protective effects of ulinastatin on the hearts of rats with anoxia-induced cardiac arrest-cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CA-CPR) and the mechanism of improving cardiac dysfunction .Methods Twenty male Sprague Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into three experimental groups :sham operation group (group A ,n= 8 ,only anesthesia , tracheotomy tube and vascular puncture) ,control group(group B ,n= 6 ,normal saline 4 mL · kg -1 injected via vein) ,Ulinastatin treatment group(group C ,n=6 ulinastatin 50 000 U/kg+normal saline 3 mL · kg -1 injected via vein);Factors including mean arte-rial pressure(MAP) ,left ventricular end diastolic pressure(LVEDP) ,the maximum rising and falling rates of left ventricular deep pressure(± LVdp .dt-1max) ,brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) ,cardiac troponin T(cTNT) ,IL-12 and TNF-αwere observed at setting time before and after cardiopulmonary resuscitation in rats .Results Compared with those of the group A and before CA-CPR ,the concentrations of IL-12、cTNT、TNF-α、BNP、and LVEDP increased(P<0 .01)while ± LVdp .dt-1max decreased(P<0 .01) at 6 h after CA-CPR in group B ,C .Compared with those of group B ,the concentrations of IL-12、CTNT、TNF-α、BNP and LVEDP of 6 h after CA-CPR in group C were lower and ± LVdp .dt-1max was higher(P<0 .01) ,The concentrations of MAP of 6 h after CA-CPR in group B was lower Compared with that of group A ,C and before CA-CPR(P<0 .01) .Conclusion Ulinastatin can improve cardiac dysfunction by depressing mediators of inflammation and reducing myocardial injury .

Background and purpose: Since the detection of localized prostate cancer is increasing, it's important to distinguish from benign lesions like prostatitis. This study aimed to compare diffusion weighted imaging with apparent diffusion coefifcients in differential diagnosis of localized prostate cancer on 3.0T MR. Methods:Sixty-nine cases with localized prostate cancer proved by pathology, 43 in perpheral zone (PZ) and 26 in central gland (CG), 33 with prostatitis, and 37 with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were analyzed. The signal noise ratio (SNR) and apparent diffusion coefifcient (ADC) value of lesions were measured, and a semiquantitative grading of DW image was performed. The diagnostic accuracy of both methods was evaluated by ROC. Results:45 cancer foci and 36 prostatitis lesions in PZ, 27 cancer foci and 42 BPH lesions in CG were included. The sensitivity and speciifcity for ADC value to distinguish cancer from begin lesions in PZ and CG were 88.9%and 86.1%、81.5%and 73.8%respectively. The diagnostic accuracy of ADC value was higher than DWI semiquantitative grading and SNR (P<0.05). Conclusion:ADC value yielded a higher accuracy in differential diagnosis of localized prostate cancer on 3.0T MR, thus it’s recommended as a major index for diagnosis.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of manipulation combined with McKenzie technique on discogenic low back pain. Methods 80 patients were randomly divided into control group (n=39, 1 case was lost) and observation group (n=40). The patients in obser-vation group received manipulation and McKenzie technique, while the control group received manipulation only. All the patients were eval-uated with Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Visual Analogous Scale (VAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) before and 3 weeks af-ter treatment. Results The scores of ODI, VAS and SDS decreased after treatment in both groups (P<0.01). The score of ODI and VAS were lower in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in the score of SDS between two groups after treatment (P>0.05). Conclusion Manipulation combined with McKenzie technique is more effective on discogenic low back pain.

Objective To explore the effect of valium and barbitone in the treatment of convulsion in neonate. Methods 156 children with convul sion were randomly divided into two groups, 77 cases in control group and 78 cases in treatment group. Results The instant and total effective rates of treatment group and control group were companed, respectively. There were significant difference between these two groups.Conclusion Valium and Barbitone is effective in treating neonate with convusion.

Objective To investigate IL-18 expression of monocyte cells and the inhibition effect of fluvastation on its expression in patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS). Methods Isolated monocyte cells from peripheral blood of patients with ACS were incubated with different concentrations of fluvastatin, and IL-18 mRNA level of the monocyte cells was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). Results The monocyte cells of peripheral blood in patients with ACS expressed IL-18 mRNA. IL-18 mRNA decreased from 54 1?9 9 to 50 1?12 6(P

Objective To evaluate the safety of nasogastric tube feeding and nasojejunal tube feeding in early enteral nutrition treatment of acute pancreatitis.Methods Using key words,subject headings,and citation tracing,we searched literatures reporting randomised controlled trials on early enteral nutrition treatment of acute pancreatitis through nasojejunal tube and nasogastric tube in the following databases:PubMed,Embase,Cochrane library,Wanfang,China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),and VIP published since the founding of the databases up to 2016.Meta-analysis was performed with the selected literature.Results Seven randomised controlled trials with 367 patients were included.Meta-analysis showed that the nasogastric tube group was not inferior to the nasojejunal tube group in the incidence of recurrent abdominal pain,gastrointestinal adverse reaction,the total length of hospital stay,and mortality.Conclusion Enteral nutrition via nasogastric tube is safe and well tolerated,may be a safe approach of nutrition treatment for acute pancreatitis.

Objective To investigate the correlation between regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) value and the prognosis of comatose patients in the intensive care unit (ICU).Methods From January 2013 to September 2014, a total of 64 comatose patients admitted in the department of ICU were enrolled.The patients were divided into two groups : consciousness group (n =25) and coma group (n =39).The level of the Glasgow coma scale (GCS), APACHE Ⅱ score and Full Outline of UnResponsiveness score (FOUR) of patients were monitored.The rSO2 was measured by Somanetics INVOS 5100 monitor.Results The differences in levels of FOUR and GCS at admission and GCS at discharge between the two groups were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).In the consciousness group, the levels of GCS、 FOUR and rSO2 were higher compared with the coma group (P ＜ 0.05).ROC curve analysis revealed that the areas under the curve of GCS, FOUR and rSO2 for predicting prognosis were 0.823 (0.718-0.928), 0.820 (0.728-0.912) and 0.924 (0.863-0.985) respectively.Conclusions The rSO2 was useful for estimating the prognosis of comatose patients in general ICU.
