Objective To study the risk factor of postoperative acute lung injury(ALI)after liver transplantation.Methods The clinical data of I00 patients with end-stage liver diseases who re- ceived liver transplantations were retrospectively reviewed.The risk factors of postoperative ALI after liver transplantation were analyzed by using single variance analysis and multiple variance regression analysis.Results Thirteen patients(13 %,13/11t0)altogether were diagnosed as ALI after liver transplantation.Binary logistic analysis revealed that massive transfusion during operation(more than 5000 ml)and severity of reperfusion injury(ALT above 600 U/L)were two independent risk factors of postoperative ALI following liver transplantation.Massive transfusion significantly increased the risk of ALI by 12.7 times,whereas the severe reperfusion significantly increased the risk of ALI by 7.0 times.Conclusions ALl is a serious multifactoral complication after liver transplantation with high mortality and fatality.Massive transfusion and the severe reperfusion injury are two independent risk factors with high morbidity and mortality.

Objective To study the characteristics of the transcranial electric stimulation(TES)-elicited motor evoked potentials(MEP)recorded from different points of the diaphragm,and to determine the optimal record- ing site in the diaphragm.Methods One EEG electrode was placed subcutaneously in the midline of the skull as stimulation electrode and another EEG electrode was inserted into hard palate submucously as cathode in 30 male rats.And single square wave electrical pulse was used for stimulation.The stimulation intensity was 15 mA,the du- ration of the pulse was 0.2 ms,and the stimulating interval was 200 ms.The concentric needle electrode were insert- ed into the following eight sites:the medial,intermediate,lateral crura of the diaphragm,the junction of the posterior axilla line and the inferior border of the eleventh rib,the junction of the anterior axilla line and the inferior border of the ninth rib,the junction of the intermediate line of the clavicle and the inferior border of the eighth rib,the junction of the para-sternal line and the inferior border of the seventh rib,the pars sternalis.The MEP was recorded from each point,respectively.The optimal sites of the diaphragm MEP were found and recorded.Results The MEPs were re- corded from each of the 8 sites of the diaphragm in all the rats after TES.There was no statistically significant differ- ence among the latencies of every site.But the amplitude varied from 6.08?0.46 mV in maximum along the inferior border of the ninth rib at the anterior line of the axilla to the minimum of O.91?0.03 mV at the pars sternalis. Conclusion It is safer to insert the needle along the inferior border of the ninth rib at the anterior line of the axilla, because there was certain distant from the folding part of the pleura and the amplitude of the recorded wave at this point is maximal.

BACKGROUND:We built Sprague-Dawley rat models with mild, moderate, and severe spinal cord injuries to accord with the spinal cord injury types for basic empirical study, and consequently to further understand the microenvironmental change in Sprague-Dawley rats with spinal cord injury, and to provide help for clinical treatment. OBJECTIVE:To observe the changes in nerve function, pathological manifestation and motor sensory evoked potential in Alen’s models and Sprague-Dawley rats with complete spinal cord transection at different time points after spinal cord injury by simulating the microenviroment in Sprague-Dawley rats. METHODS: A total of 125 healthy adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were selected and randomly divided into group sham operation group, 100 gcf hit potential group (20 g×5 cm), 200 gcf hit potential (20 g×10 cm), 300 gcf hit potential group (20 g×15 cm), and spinal cord complete transection group with 25 rats in each group. At 1, 5, 7, 14 and 28 days after model establishment, the degree of spinal cord injury was identified by the BBB scores of motion function, motor evoked potential, and pathological section. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Totaly 24 Sprague-Dawley rats died in the experiment. The death rate and the rate of complications were highest in the spinal cord complete transection group. The BBB score of each group was decreased. The BBB scores in every group increased as time went on. There were significant differences between each surgery group and the sham operation group at corresponding time points (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found between the 300 gcf hit potential group and the spinal cord complete transection group at corresponding time points (P > 0.05). (2) In each surgery group, the infiltration of inflammatory cels and obvious sweling of neurons were visible at 1 day after injury. Neural cels reduced with time prolonged. At 28 days after injury, a large number of astrocytes proliferated, scar and spinal cord cavity formed. Above symptoms were worse in the 300 gcf hit potential group and spinal cord complete transection group than in the 100 gcf and 200 gcf hit potential groups. (3) Significant differences in amplitude and latency were detectable between each surgery group and the sham operation group (P < 0.05). No significant difference in amplitude and latency was detected between the 300 gcf hit potential group and the spinal cord complete transection group at corresponding time points (P > 0.05). Results confirmed that hit potential of 20 g×5 cm, 20 g×10 cm and 20 g×15 cm can simulate the microenvironment of Sprague-Dawley rats with mild, moderate and severe spinal cord injury. The rate of complication was lower in modified Alen’s model of different hit potentials than in models of spinal cord complete transection, and was more accorded with basic research.

Objective This retrospective study is designed to analyze the cardiovascular events of CTO to provide new information on secondary prevention of CHD in patients after hospital discharge. Methods 272 patients with definite diagnosis of CTO were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether suffering from cardiovascular events, with 167 patients in group A who had not suffered from the cardiovascular events and 105 patients in group B who had suffered from the cardiovascular events. We com-pared the clinical data, severity of coronary artery lesion, treatment in two groups. Results Between two groups, there was statistic signifi-cance in LDL -C, EF, Gensini scots, the number of coronary artery lesion, the number of chronic total coronary occlusion and PCI success. Logistic regression analysis revealed that Gensini scots was the independent factors for prognosis of CTO. Conclusion Gensini scors was the independent factor for prognosis of CTO.

Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative CT-guided hardening agent localization.Methods From December 2010 to January 2012,27 patients with 29 solitary pulmonary nodules who had undergone CT-guided hardening agent localization and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) were studied.Results All cases were underwent CT-guided hardening agent localization successfully,and no patient had serious complication that required any intervention.The diameter of nodules ranged from 3 to 21 mm as measured by CT[mean (11.27 ± 6.32) mm].The distance between the center of nodule and visceral pleural ranged from 4 to 38 mm[mean (14.45 ± 4.32) mm].Conversion from VATS to thoracotomies was not necessary during the diagnostic resection procedure nodules.29 solitary pulmonary nodules underwent thoracoscopic wedge resection,and no intra-or postoperative mortality or morbidity was recorded.Conclusion CT-guided hardening agent localization before video-assisted thoracoscopic solitary pulmonary nodule resection is a safe and effective procedure for accurate diagnosis and resection of indeterminate solitary pulmonary nodules.

BACKGROUND:Recent studies found that some factors play important role in the process of denervated muscle atrophy, especial y the feak-headbox transcription factor, is the key element to regulate the denervated muscle atrophy.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of RNA interference on inhibiting feak-headbox 3a gene expression in vitro.
METHODS:The myoblast cel line L6 were cultured in the 6-wel cel culture plates, then pEGFP-N1 and smal
interfering RNA recombinant plasmid with the same ratio was transfected under the Lipofectamine2000 mediation to optimize the transfection efficiency of the detection system;2μg smal interfering RNA recombinant plasmid of feak-headbox 3a gene were transfected with myoblast cel line L6 for 48 and 72 hours.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 48 hours after pEGFP-N1 and siRNA recombinant plasmid transfection, a large number of bright green fluorescent displayed under fluorescence microscope with higher transfection efficiency. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis showed that there were significant differences in the sequences of feak-headbox 3a-Ⅰ, feak-headbox 3a-Ⅱ, feak-headbox 3a-Ⅲ, feak-headbox 3a-Ⅳ on feak-headbox 3a mRNA when compared with the control group at 48 and 72 hours after trasfection (P<0.05), and the inhibition effect was more significant at 72
hours after transfection when compared with that at 48 hours after transfection. Western Blot gray analysis showed that there were significant differences in sequences of feak-headbox 3a-Ⅰ, feak-headbox 3a-Ⅱ, feak-headbox 3a-Ⅲ,
feak-headbox 3a-Ⅳ on feak-headbox 3a mRNA when compared with the control group at 48 and 72 hours after
trasfection (P<0.05), and the inhibition effect was more significant at 72 hours after transfection when compared with that at 48 hours after transfection, which was same with the effect on mRNA level. RNA interference in vitro can
significantly inhibit the fork-head transcription factor feak-headbox 3a gene expression, and the inhibition effect of feak-headbox 3a gene smal interfering RNA recombinant plasmid transfected with the sequence on the mRNA and protein level of feak-headbox 3a is not clear, which can provide new idea for the gene therapy of RNA mediated denervated skeletal muscle atrophy.

Objective To analyze the characteristic of trauma in 246 fatal falls. Methods We collect 246 cases of fatal falls from Pudong district of Shanghai from 2005 to 2014, and then analyze the characteristics of trauma by using different parameters. Results The height in suicides by fall is higher than accidents by fall (25.7m:13.98m). In all fatal falls, head has a higher possibility in suffering trauma than other body regions (75.2%), while neck has a lower possibility (6.5%). The possibility of head trauma in accidents by fall is higher than suicides by fall (89.4%:75.2%). Conclusion Comparing with suicides by fall, victims in accidents by fall have lack of protection from limbs. Besides, the low rate of ifnding neck trauma suggests legal physicians should be more careful in examining this area.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and clinical efficacy of stratified suture of lateral pharyngeal wall(SSLPW) combined with soft palate radiofrequency coblation in the treatment of the patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Methods:The clinical data of 21 severe OSAHS patients underwent lateral pharyngoplasty(LP) combined with soft palate radiofrequency coblation (LP group) and 39 severe OSAHS patients underwent SSLPW combined with soft palate radiofrequency coblation (SSLPW group) were selected.The apnea hypopnea index(AHI),lowest SaO2(LSaO2),Epworth sleepiness scale(ESS) scores,and related postoperative complications of the patients in two groups were analyzed before and after operation.The successful rates of operation of the patients in two were compared.Results:In LP group,1 patient was cured (5%),19 patients were improved markedly (90%),1 patient was effective (5%),and no patient was invalid;the successful rate was 95.2%(20/21).In SSLPW group,2 patients were cured (5.1%),33 patients were improved markedly (84.6%),4 patients were effective (10.3%),and no patients was invalid;the successful rate was 89.7%(35/39);there was no statistical difference in the successful rate of operation of the patients between two groups (P>0.05).There was statistically significant improvement of the subjective symptoms.All the patients returned to normal subjective swallowing functions without nasal pharyngeal reflux and dysphagia in one month follow-up after operation.Compared with before operation,the AHI and ESS scores of the patients in two groups after operation were decreased(P<0.05);the LSaO2 scores were increased(P<0.05).Conclusion:The AHI,LSaO2 and ESS scores are significantly improved in the OSAHS patients after treated with SSLPW combined with soft palate radiofrequency coblation.The method is a valid option for the severe OSAHS patients.
