ObjectiveTo determine the effect of acute and chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) resulted from thoracic cord transection on the urinary bladder spinal neural pathway.Methods76 adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups, non-SCI, SCIa, SCIb and SCIc respectively. The non-SCI rats underwent no surgical procedure except Pseudorabies virus (PRV) tracer injection into the bladder tissue, while the rats of other groups were spinalized and given PRV injection at different time after SCI. Transcardiac perfusion fixation was done in appropriate survival periods after PRV injection. Then sections of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and spinal cord were processed for visualization of virus by the Streptavidin-Peroxidase (SP) immunohistochemical procedure. All sections were measured with the Olympus Cue-2 image analysis system.ResultsThe bladder weights in SCIb and SCIc groups markedly increased (P<0.001). The time-ordered flow charts of PRV tracing were similar in the non-SCI rats and in the SCI rats. The cross-sectional area of the labeled DRG cell profiles increased significantly after SCI (P<0.001). The number of labeled cells in dorsal horn in L6 and S1 segments 3 days after PRV injection markedly increased in chronic SCI rats, and so did the number of labeled motor neurons 4 days post-injection. ConclusionThe acute and chronic SCI have little effect on the process of virus transneuronal transport below the level of lesion. Subsequent to chronic SCI, marked reorganization of the micturition reflex pathways occurs.

Left ventricular noncompaction(LVNC)describes a rare cardiomyopathy of unknown etiology characterized by the presence of prominent trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses.It is one of the three major cardiomyopathies among children.LVNC can have different inheritance patterns, including X-linked recessive, autosomal dominant, and mitochondrial inheritance.Mutations in genes encoding sarcomere or cytoskeletal proteins have been identified as causes of LVNC.As a comprehensive cardiac event with serious complications such as life threatening arrhythmias, heart failure and thromboembolism, LVNC is mainly diagnosed through echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance and other examinations.Early improvement of genetic evaluation, screening of family members for the mutation, close follow-up of high-risk patients, and early management of complications will help to improve patients′ quality of life and prognosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) as prophylaxis against venous thromboembolism after rectal cancer surgery.Methods The clinical data of 120 patients who received rectal cancer surgery at the Tianjin People's Hospital from October 2008 to October 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into the test group (50 patients) and the control group (70 patients).Patients in the test group received subcutaneous injection of 0.4 ml of LMWH (4100 U) at 8-12 hours after operation,and then once a day thereafter until mobilization.LMWH was not given to patients in the control group.Patients in the 2 groups who experienced venous thromboembolism (VTE) and postoperative bleeding were recorded and compared.The clinical data of patients with VTE were proceeded with risk factors analysis.All data were analyzed using the t test,chi-square test or by calculating Fisher exact probability.All factors influencing VTE formation were analyzed using Logistic regression analysis.Results The incidences of VTE in the test group and the control group were 2.0％ (1/50) and 14.3％ (10/70),respectively,with a significant difference between the 2 groups (x2=3.915,P ＜ 0.05).The incidences of postoperative blood loss in the test group and the control group were 6.0％ (3/50) and 2.9％ (2/70),respectively,with no significant difference between the 2 groups (x2=0.149,P ＞ 0.05).Varicose veins of lower limbs,previous cardiopulmonary diseases,obesity and age ＞ 65 years were the independent risk factors of VTE (OR =2.3,2.5,1.4,2.1,P ＜0.05).The number of patients with VTE increased as the increase of the risk factors.Conclusion Early injection of LMWH after rectal cancer surgery is safe and effective in preventing VTE.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) from Chinese literatures published in Chinese Periodical Full-text Database (CNKI) from 2007 to 2011.Methods Using drug-induced liver injury as key words,the literatures in CNKI were searched,and the data of age,gender,medication,clinical manifestation and prognosis were analyzed.Results In search of CNKI,281 literatures were collected; finally 111 relevant papers were obtained.Total 10 693 cases of DILI were included with a male/female ratio of 1.14:1 and a mean age of 45.6 y ranging from 7 months to 93 y.Among 1093 cases with the age grouped,the highest incidence of DILI was in age 41-60 y(38.52％)and 20.68％ patients were over 60 y.Among 6592 cases with clinical manifestation recorded,43.51％ patients were asymptomatic and abnormal liver function was detected in health check-up; and others presented nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms,including fatigue,nausea,vomiting and jaundice.In 9340 cases with medication recorded,the 6 most common drugs inducing DILI were antituberculotics (32.74％),Chinese herbs(22.12％),antibiotics(9.18％),antineoplastics(6.34％),NSAIDs (4.80％)and antithyroid drugs (4.37％).The most common type of toxicity was hepatocellular injury (63.66％,4438/6971).In general the prognosis was good with a fatality rate of 1.67％.Conclusions Antituberculotics and Chinese herbs are the main causes of DILI.Some DILI patients have occult onset and others have nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms.Most patients have good prognosis if they are treated timely.

Although the percentage of preterm infants developing intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) has been greatly re-duced in the past three decades, increased survival of extremely preterms has meant that severe IVH with subsequent posthae-morrhagic hydrocephalus is still one of the serious unsolved problems for managements of preterms. Therapeutic interventions for posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus include serial lumbar punctures, repeated aspiration through a ventricular access device, ventriculoperitoneal shunting, drainage, irrigation and fibrinolytic therapy, diuretic therapy treatment to reduce cerebrospinal fluid production, intraventricular fibrinolytic therapy, etc. This review summarizes the current concepts on the pathophysiology, inter-vention indications, and the effectiveness and safety of different interventions of subsequent posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus.

Objective To explore the effects of micro channel (mPCNL)and standard channel percutaneous lithotripsy (sPCNL)on hemodynamics and blood gas analysis in patients with renal calculi.Methods From March 2007 to June 2015,180 patients with kidney stones were selected as the research subjects,through digital said method,the patients were randomly divided into MPCNL group and sPCNL group,the former F16 plastics through established channels of percutaneous nephrolithotomy.The latter F24 plastics through established channels of percuta-neous nephrolithotomy.The changes of hemodynamics and blood gas analysis were observed and compared in the two groups during perioperative period .Results In MPCNL group ,theoperation time was significantly shorter in sPCNL group(t =-6.018),the perfusion fluid was higher than that of sPCNL group(t =20.506,P <0.05).The perfusion of MAP and CVP of the two groups were significantly lower than those before anesthesia,and irrigation flow after dif-ferent time and postoperative were significantly higher than those before hemoperfusion,60 min,120min,after opera-tion MAP value of MPCNL group,test value was as follows(t60min =5.878,t120min =6.802,tpostoperative =7.070,all P <0.05);60min,120min,after operation CVP value of MPCNL group,test value was as follows (t60min =5.987,t120min =6.505,tpostoperative =7.180,all P <0.05).60min,120min,postoperative MAP value of sPCNL group,test value was as follows (t60min =5.613,t120min =7.238,tpostoperative =7.170,all P <0.05);60min,120min,postoperative the CVP value of sPCNL group,test value was as follows (t60min =7.682,t120min =7.135,t[postoperative]=9.218,all P <0.05). Blood gas analysis showed that the two groups of postoperative Na +,Cl - compared with before anesthesia had no sta-tistically significant difference(P >0.05).Two groups of postoperative K +,pH,BE,Hb were lower than before anes-thesia,the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05).The two groups of patients with no postoperative urina-ry sepsis and other serious complications.Conclusion With the increase of operation time filling fluid absorption on hemodynamics and arterial blood gas analysis of influence gradually increased;in heart,lung and normal renal function patients,due to the compensatory organ function,caused by MPCNL and sPCNL irrigation fluid absorption differences in the amount is not enough to cause different hemodynamics and blood gas analysis.
