Objective To explore the early diagnosis,surgical treatment and clinical effect of acute superior mesenteric artery embolism.Methods Base on the retrospectively study of the clinical data of 10 patients with acute superior mesenteric artery embolism,all the patients were treated with routine blood test,D -dimer,abdominal ultrasound,abdominal CT examination.At the same time,partial selective superior mesenteric artery angiography was performed.Patients with definite or highly suspected of mesenteric artery embolism,such as no absolute surgical procedure, were treated by immediate surgical fixation.Superior mesenteric artery embolism was confirmed in the surgery.Then Operation was decided according to intestinal necrosis.Fogaty catheter removal was applied to the main trunk of the superior mesenteric artery.At the same time,such as the discovery of branches of vascular embolism,the therapy using direct injection of urokinase in local embolism was performed because of difficulty in embolectomy for narrow vessels. Then anticoagulation therapy was performed after surgery.Results Among them,1 case gave up treatment from the hospital,2 cases died of multiple organ failure after operation,and 7 cases recovered well after operation.Conclusion Early diagnosis of acute superior mesenteric artery embolization combined with early surgical treatment is the key to the treatment of acute superior mesenteric artery embolism.The cure rate can be significantly improved and the mortality rate can be reduced.Fogaty catheter was applied to treat acute superior mesenteric artery embolism with the therapy using direct injection of urokinase in local embolism has the characteristics of quick effect and curative effect.

BACKGROUND:Titanium materials have high mechanical strength, stable physical properties, good biocompatibility, and excelent corrosion resistance, which can be safely used in humans. OBJECTIVE:To compare the safety of mesh-like titanium aloy steel plateversus wire mesh in the repair of chest wal defects. METHODS:Eighteen patients with chest wal defects, 11 males and 7 females, with an age range of 19-65 years, were enroled. The 9 of 18 patients were subjected to repair with mesh-like titanium aloy steel plate, and the other 9 patients underwent wire mesh repair. At 1 week after repair, visual analog scale scores were measured in the two groups, and patient’s satisfaction on the thoracic appearance and incidence of complications were surveyed during the folow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Al patients were folowed up for 1-7 years. During the folow-up, X-ray review displayed good thoracic stability and no fracture of titanium plate and wire mesh. Patients recovered wel from respiratory dysfunction, with unapparent chest wal deformity and high satisfaction rate of the thoracic appearance. Moreover, compared with the wire mesh group, the satisfaction rate of the thoracic appearance was significantly higher (P< 0.05), but the incidence of complications was significantly lower in the titanium plate group (P < 0.05). At 1 week after repair, the visual analog scale scores had no difference between the two groups (P> 0.05). These findings indicate that the mesh-like titanium plate has good biocompatibility and safety to effectively maintain the stability of the chest wal.

Objective To study the expressions of Connexin43 (Cx43) and B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2) proteins in the ventricular myocardium of human fetus,and explore the correlation between the expression of the two proteins and the development of fetus myocardium.MethodsThe expressions of Cx43 and Bcl-2 protein in the ventricular myocardium of human embryos were immunohistochemically detected in the second,third and fourth month of gestation,respectively,by strepto-avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (SABC) and avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) technics.ResultsThe positive expression of Bcl-2 protein was detected in one or two cells in the ventricular myocardium of human embryos in the second month of gestation.With the advancement of fetal age,the number of Bcl-2 positive cells increased gradually and distributed in clusters in the ventricular myocardium of human fetus in the fourth month of gestation.The cells with positive expression of Cx43 protein were detected and scattered in dots-like structure in the cytoplasm of myocardial cells in the ventricular myocardium of human embryos in the second month of gestation.With the advancement of fetal age,the distributing region of Cx43 protein extended gradually,and the Cx43 protein positively expressed in the membranes between ventricular myocardial cells.The positively expressed Cx43 protein showed a diffused distribution in a sheet form in the ventricular wall of human fetus in the fourth month of gestation.ConclusionCx43 and Bcl-2 proteins participate in the early growth and development of the ventricular myocardial cells of human fetus.

Objective To establish a model of isoniazid induced necrosis and apoptosis in HepG2 cell and to observe the expressions of Fas/Fas ligand (FasL) in this model.Methods HepG2 cells were treated with different dosages of isoniazid (0,1,2,4,6 and 8 mg/mL) or blank control for 24 hours.Flow cytometer was used to observe the cellular morphology of the HepG2 cell.Annexin V/propidium iodide double staining and flow cytometry were employed to detect the necrosis and apoptosis of HepG2 cells.The expressions of Fas/FasL on the cells were also determined by flow cytometry.The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA.The comparisons between the drug groups and the control group were performed by using Dunnett t test. Results The higher the dose of isoniazid (4,6,8 mg/mL) was,the more necrosis and apoptosis were observed.In the 4,6 and 8mg/mL isoniazid arms,the total mortality rates were all higher than the control group [(32.1 ±7.5)％,(34.9±8.1)％,(38.2±9.4)％ vs (7.2±1.5)％ respectively](t=4.62,5.14 and 5.75,respectively; all P＜0.01 ).The expression levels of Fas increased along with the dose of isoniazid increasing [(8.7±2.2)％,(11.5±2.8)％,(12.3±3.0)％ and (10.6±2.9)％ in isoniazid 2,4,6and 8 mg/mL arms,respectively],which were all higher than that in control arm [(3.1 ±0.8) ％](t=2.97,P＜0.05; t=4.46,P＜0.01; t=4.88,P＜0.01; t=3.98,P＜0.05).Furthermore,the expressions of FasL increased as well when the dose of isoniazid increased.The expression levels of FasL were (16.2±3.5)％,(21.7±4.8)％ and (18.7±4.9)％,respectively in isoniazid 4,6 and 8 mg/mL arms,which were all higher than that in the control group [(7.4±1.4)％](t=3.11,P＜0.01; t=5.06,P＜0.01; t=3.99,P＜0.05).HepG2 cell necrosis increased with isoniazid of 8 mg/mL.However,the increase of apoptosis was not observed.Conclusion Isoniazid can induce HepG2 cell necrosis and apoptosis,and the apoptosis may be related with the increased expressions of the Fas/FasL on the cells.

To study the effect of Cu2+ and Zn2+ on amyloid-beta peptides (Abeta) aggregation, the morphology, size and cell toxicity of Abeta40 aggregates formed with the metal ions have been observed by the methods including ultraviolet spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that Cu2+ and Zn2+ can accelerate Abeta40 aggregation, and both changed the morphology and size of Abeta40 aggregates. Zn2+ induced Abeta40 to form fibrous Abeta40 aggregates, while the amorphous and fibrous aggregates were produced by the interaction between Cu2+ and Abeta40. In addition, H2O2 was produced when Abeta40 reduced Cu2+. The relationship between metal ions and Abeta40 aggregates was analyzed, and the function of metal ions in Alzheimer's disease (AD) was illustrated in the research.
