Chinese Journal of Organ Transplantation 2014;35(9):542-546
Objective To observe and analyze the reasons of intra-abdominal hypertension,and to discuss the influence of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) on recipients' respiratory function and its changes after disposition.Method During January to June in 2012,50 patients who had performed orthotopic liver transplantation were involved in this study.Intra-abdominal pressure was measured by AbViser Intra-Abdominal Pressure Monitoring Kit.According to the value of intra-abdominal pressure,the patients were divided into two groups (IAH group and control group).The reasons of IAH were observed and analyzed.Respiratory rate,oxygenation index,and the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide between IAH and control groups were compared.IAH was dealt with restricting oral input,inserting nasogastric tube,administering enema,inserting ilues tube or placing percutaneous catheter drainage according to reasons.Intra-abdominal pressure,respiratory rate,oxygenation index,and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide were also observed after disposition.Result The incidence of IAH was 44% (22/50).The respiratory rate of patients in IAH group was quicker than that in control group.The oxygenation index in IAH group was lower than that in control group.The arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide in IAH grade I group was not higher than in control group.However,the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide in IAH grade Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups was higher than in control group.After disposition,the intra-abdominal pressure,respiratory rate and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide in IAH groups were decreased from 16.4 ± 3.1 mmHg,33.0 ± 5.2 L/min and 47.6 ± 9.4 mmHg to 10.5 ± 1.8 mrnHg,19.7 ± 4.1 L/min and 39.9 ± 2.9 mmHg respectively,while the oxygenation index was increased from 202.7 ± 72.9 mmHg to 350.5 ± 98.5 mmHg.Conclusion The incidence of IAH after orthotopic liver transplantation was high.The influence of IAH on patients' respiratory function was serious.After timely and proper disposition,the respiratory function of patients with IAH could be improved.

Objective To evaluate the effect of heparin and argatroban on the coagulating function and the vascular thrombosis in the early period after pediatric living related liver transplantation (LRLT).Method Eighty-four congenital biliary atresia pediatric patients who had performed LRLT were involved in this study.According to the method of anticoagulation,the patients were divided into two groups (heparin group and argatroban group).Antithrombin Ⅲ (AT-Ⅲ) activity,activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and international normalized ratio (INR) of two groups were measured in the first 5 days after LRLT.In order to determine whether vascular thrombosis existed,Doppler ultrasound was performed daily.Result There were no significant differences in gender,age,body weight,graft-recipient weight ratio and whether to accept Kassi procedure between two groups.The AT-Ⅲ activity of two groups was low and increased gradually after operation.There was no significant difference between two groups.There were no significant differences in APTT and INR between two groups immediate and at first day after operation.After anticoagulation,the differences in APTT and INR between two groups were significant.The incidence of vascular thrombosis was 4.76% (3/63) and 0(0/21) respectively in heparin and argatroban groups.There was no significant difference between two groups.During treatment,there were no severe complications in two groups,such as active hemorrhage and allergy.Conclusion Argatroban is a direct anticoagulant.It is independent on the level of AT-Ⅲ activity.It may play an important role for preventing vascular thrombosis after pediatric LRLT.

Objective To detect the antibiotic resistance of four kinds of gram-negative bacilli strains against seven antibiotics and to analyze the differences in antibiotic resistance between the strains isolated in intensive care unit (ICU) and common wards.Methods This study involved 3 238 gram-negative bacilli strains isolated in Beijing Tongren Hospital from January to December 2016.Of all strains, 46.6% were isolated in ICU (severe group) and 53.4% were isolated in common wards (general group).Resistance of these strains to seven kinds of antibiotics was detected and the differences between the two groups were analyzed.Results Antibiotic resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains to ceftriaxone, cefepime and imipenem were 41.7%, 41.2% and 39.5% in severe group and 20.9%, 21.7% and 17.1% in general group.Moreover, the differences between the two groups were all statistically significant (χ2Cefatriaxone=56.72, P<0.01;χ2Cefepime=49.12, P<0.01;χ2Imipenem=69.81, P<0.01).Antibiotic resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae strains to imipenem was 17.2% in severe group and 8.8% in general group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2Imipenem=11.48, P<0.01).Resistance rates of Escherichia coli strains to ceftriaxone and cefepime were 72.9% and 35.8% in severe group and 44.7% and 13.3% in general group, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (χ2Ceftriaxone=40.13, P<0.01;χ2Cefepime=41.61, P<0.01).More than 60% of Acinetobacter baumanii strains whether they were isolated in ICU or in common wards were resistant to all the seven antibiotics, and there were no significant differences between the two groups.Conclusion Gram-negative bacilli strains isolated in ICU have higher resistance rates than those isolated in common wards and therefore antibiotics should be used differently.Regular monitoring of drug resistance should be strengthened to provide references for empirical clinical medication.

Objective To observe the effect of acupoint thread-embedding at Neiguan (PC6) and Zusanli (ST36) on anxiety and sleep disorders after heroin withdrawal. Method Sixty-seven patients with heroin addiction were randomized into a Neiguan group (25 cases), a Zusanli group (22 cases) and a Neiguan plus Zusanli group (20 cases), to receive corresponding treatments once every 20 d, for 4 sessions in total. The Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were adopted to observe the anxiety and sleep condition before and after the treatment. Result After 60 d thread-embedding treatment, the total and standard SAS scores, sleep initiation time and total PSQI score were significantly decreased in the 3 groups (P<0.05), and the sleep durations were significantly extended (P<0.05); in comparing the improvement of anxiety, Neiguan plus Zusanli group > Neiguan group >Zusanli group (P<0.05); in comparing the improvement of sleep, Neiguan plus Zusanli group was superior to both Zusanli group and Neiguan group (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between Zusanli group and Neiguan group (P>0.05). Conclusion It's effective to use thread-embedding at Neiguan and Zusanli independently or together for anxiety and sleep disorders after heroin withdrawal, but the efficacy is more significant when the two points are used in combination, indicating the synergy of acupoints.

There were some shortcomings for traditional teaching mode of nutrition and food hygiene course, such as many teaching contents and little teaching time, students much passively learning and little active learning. We explored the combination of the WeChat and the TBL teaching to conduct the flipped classroom to solve the deficiency. The teaching pattern was conducted in 60 students majoring in preventive medicine from Grade 2012. The learning task of nutrition and food hygiene was released on the WeChat before the class. Students learned knowledge in the form of discussion based on case in the class. After the class, the discussion, answer the question and test were conducted on the WeChat. The survey showed that 85% of the students were satisfied with teaching pattern,especially satisfied with its role of broadening students' knowledge and vision, improving their autonomous learning ability, teamwork ability, and their ability to analyze and solve problems.
