Objective The aim of this study was to determine the effects of ulinastatin, a broad spectrum proteinase inhibitor, on fibrinolytic system and platelet function during open heart surgery performed with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) .Methods Twenty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱpatients of both sexes undergoing cardiac surgery under CPB were randomly divided into two groups of ten patients: control group(C) and ulinastatin group (U). In group U patients received ulinastatin 12 000 U?2kg-1 . Half of the dose was given iv 10 min before CPB and the other half was added to the priming solution. In group C patients received normal saline instead of ulinastatin. Blood samples were taken before CPB (T1 ) , 30 min after CPB was started (T2), at the end of CPB (T3), 2 h and 4 h after CPB(T4 , T5) for determination of plasma levels of D-Dimer, ?-granule membrane protein-140 (GMP-140), thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-Keto-prostaglandin F1? (6-Keto-PGF1?) .Results The demographic data, aortic cross-clamping time, CPB time and duration of operation were comparable between the two groups. The plasma levels of D-Dimer, GMP-140, TXB2 and TXB2/6-Keto-PGFl? were significantly increased at T2 , T3 and T4 as compared with the baseline (T1 ) in both groups, but the increase was significantly larger in group C than in group U(P

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of spectral CT mode in imaging liver by comparing the radiation dose and image quality between spectral CT and conventional multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT).Methods Thirty patients (group A) underwent three-phasic enhanced CT scans spectral CT mode in the portal phase (PP) and conventional helical mode in other phases (Discovery CT 750 HD,GE Healthcare).Another 30 patients in group B underwent conventional three-phasic enhanced CT on a 64-slice MSCT (VCT,GE Healthcare) with 120 kVp and automatic tube current modulation (ATCM) and noise index of 15.The images in PP from the two imaging modes were retrospectively compared.The contrast-noiseratio (CNR) for the veins was calculated using liver parenchyma as background.For the spectral CT mode,101 sets of monochromatic images were reconstructed from 40 to 140 keV,and the optimal energy level for obtaining the highest CNR was determined using the Gemstone Spectral Imaging (GSI)-viewer software.Image noise (at 70 keV),CNR (at the optimal keV level) for the vein and radiation dose to the patient were obtained for spectral images and statistically compared with those in group B with the conventional MSCT using t test.Results The CTDIw value in PP for spectral CT was 15.64 mGy,30%lower than the (22.44 ± 5.09) mGy for the conventional MSCT (t =29.56,P < 0.01).Image noises on the liver parenchyma were 22.81 ±2.85 and 23.80 ±3.31 for the conventional MDCT and spectral CT images at 70 keV,respectively,with no significant difference (t =0.76,P > 0.05).On the other hand,CNR for the vein at the optimal energy level in spectral CT was 7.17 ± 2.09,which was significantly higher than the 2.76 ± 1.34 for the conventional MSCT (t =7.21,P < 0.01).Conclusion Compared with conventional standard-dose liver MSCT,spectral CT imaging provides improved CNR for vessels,comparable image noise for liver parenchyma with 30% dose reduction.
