Objective To explore the preparation of liposomal clodronate and investigate its inducing effects on the apoptosis of peritoneal macrophages in rats after severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods Liposomal clodronate was prepared by means of thin film. SAP rat model was established by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate into the pancreatic duct. The peritoneal macrophages were obtained from SAP rats. After exposure to different doses of liposomal clodronate (50, 100,150 μl), the PM proliferation was determined by MTT colourimetry. The apoptosis of PM was measured by flow cytometry and agarose gel electrophoresis, respectively. Results The prepared liposomal clodronate had a suitable encapsulation efficiency of clodronate (5.8%) with an average size of 200 nm. The spherical shape of liposome was confirmed by transmission electron microscope. Exposed to liposomal clodronate of different doses resulted in a obvious growth depression (P<0.01). The apoptotic rate of the PM was (10.32±0.34) %, (18.16±0.49)% and (29.87±0.35)% in three different dose groups and the difference was marked (P<0.01). 1.2% of agarose gel electrophoresis of DNA extracted from apoptotic macrophages induced by liposomal clodronate showed clearer and characteristic ladder following the liposomal clodronate concentration. Conclusion Liposomal clodronate has a definite effect on peritoneal macrophages in SAP rats.

Objective To observe hemodynamic characteristics and the correlation with syndrome types of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in patients with septic shock, so as to direct the treatment based on syndrome differentiation. Methods A prospective observation was conducted. Sixty-eight patients with septic shock admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Dade Road General Hospital of Guangdong Hospital of TCM from January 2013 to July 2015 were enrolled. Pulse indicating continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) was used to monitor the hemodynamic changes, including heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), cardiac index (CI), global end diastolic volume index (GEDVI), extravascular lung water index (EVLWI), maximum rate of the increase in pressure (dPmax) and systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), for assessment of hemodynamics. According to the CI, the patients were divided into two groups , i.e. high CI group (CI ≥ 50.0 mL·s-1·m-2, n = 34) and low CI group (CI < 50.0 mL·s-1·m-2, n = 34), and the clinical and hemodynamic characteristics of two groups were investigated. The TCM differentiation was conducted with four syndromes and four methods, and the hemodynamic characteristics of different syndrome types were investigated, the correlation between the TCM syndrome factors and hemodynamic parameters was analyzed. The patients were divided into survival group and death group, and clinical parameters and hemodynamic characteristics were compared between two groups. Results The acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score and blood glucose of low CI group were higher than those of high CI group [APACHEⅡ score: 24.4±7.2 vs. 19.8±7.4, t = -2.279, P = 0.023; blood glucose (mmol/L): 9.7 (7.7, 14.6) vs. 6.7 (5.6, 10.0), Z = -2.257, P = 0.024], CI and GEDVI were lowered [CI (mL·s-1·m-2): 36.7±8.3 vs. 68.4±16.7, t = 10.285, P = 0.000; GEDVI (mL/m2): 689.0 (566.0, 883.8) vs. 838.5 (692.8, 1 247.3), Z = -2.711, P = 0.007], while SVRI was increased [kPa·s·L-1·m-2: 248.7 (202.1, 324.5) vs. 143.4 (102.7, 171.4), Z = -5.336, P = 0.000]. Accompanied symptoms were found to occur more commonly in septic shock patients, and the most common syndrome elements were Qi deficiency syndrome (n = 45), blood stasis syndrome (n = 40), heat-toxin syndrome (n = 37), Fushi syndrome (n = 24) and Yin deficiency syndrome (n = 10), respectively. There was no significant difference in hemodynamic parameters among patients with five types of syndrome (all P > 0.05). However, only the CI of those with Qi deficiency syndrome was significantly lower than that of heat-toxin syndrome (mL·s-1·m-2: 48.3±18.3 vs. 53.3±21.7, P < 0.05). While the results after removing the effect of accompanied symptoms showed that CI of Qi deficiency syndrome was significantly lower than that of non-Qi deficiency syndrome (mL·s-1·m-2: 48.3±18.3 vs. 61.7±21.7, t = -2.783, P = 0.007), CI of heat-toxin syndrome was significantly higher than that of non-heat-toxin syndrome (mL·s-1·m-2: 58.3±21.7 vs. 48.3±16.7, t = 2.133, P = 0.037), EVLWI of blood stasis syndrome was significantly lower than that of non-blood stasis syndrome [mL/kg: 10.0 (7.0, 15.1) vs. 14.9 (8.5, 26.8), Z = -2.075, P = 0.038]. Compared with survival group (n = 38), APACHEⅡ score in death group (n = 30) was increased (25.8±8.4 vs. 19.1±5.4, t = -3.940, P = 0.000), the proportion of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) was increased [60.0% (18/30) vs. 31.6% (12/38), χ2 = 5.493, P = 0.019], HR was increased (bpm: 118.5±20.5 vs. 98.1±19.9, t = -4.157, P = 0.000), and the proportion of Qi deficiency syndrome was increased [86.7% (26/30) vs. 50.0% (19/38), χ2 = 10.070, P = 0.002]. Conclusions Patients with sepsis shock may be divided into high-output and low-resistance & low-output and high-resistance groups according to hemodynamics, with respective hemodynamic characteristics. Hemodynamic performance differed among different syndrome types, and there was a certain relationship. Hemodynamic monitoring with PiCCO was a useful supplement of TCM, which was good for the evidence-based medicine.
