Objective:To compare the effects of different doses of atorvastatin on blood lipid and endothelial function in patients with hypertension and carotid plaque.Methods:Ninety-two patients with hypertension and carotid plaque who received treatment from June 2019 to June 2020 were included in this study. They were assigned to receive treatment with either atorvastatin 20 mg (control group, n = 46) or atorvastatin 40 mg (study group, n = 46) for 3 months. Blood lipid level and endothelial function were compared between the two groups. Results:There were no significant differences in sex, age, course of disease, body mass index (BMI) and carotid plaque grading between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Before treatment, there were no significant differences in serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) between two groups (all P > 0.05). After treatment, serum levels of TC, TG and LDL-C in each group were significantly decreased compared with before treatment [study group: TC: (5.8 ± 2.3) mmol/L vs. (3.5 ± 1.3) mmol/L, t = 5.904; TG: (2.5 ± 0.8) mmol/L vs. (1.2 ± 0.5) mmol/L, t = 9.346; LDL-C: (5.0 ± 0.4) mmol/L vs. (3.3 ± 0.4) mmol/L, t = 20.382; control group: TC: (5.9 ± 1.8) mmol/L vs. (4.5 ± 1.5) mmol/L, t = 4.052; TG: (2.6 ± 0.3) mmol/L vs. (1.8 ± 0.7) mmol/L, t = 7.125; LDL-C: (4.9 ± 0.5) mmol/L vs. (4.2 ± 0.5) mmol/L, t = 6.714, all P < 0.01). After treatment, serum level of HDL-C in each group was significantly increased compared with before treatment [study group: (0.8 ± 0.5) mmol/L vs. (1.5 ± 0.3) mmol/L, t = 8.142; control group: (0.8 ± 0.4) mmol/L vs. (1.3 ± 0.2) mmol/ L, t = 7.583, both P < 0.01]. After treatment, serum levels of TC, TG and LDL-C in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( tTC = 3.417, tTG = 4.731, tLDL-C = 9.533, all P < 0.01). After treatment, serum level of HDL-C in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( tHDL-C = 3.762, P < 0.01). Before treatment, there were no significant differences in endothelium-dependent (flow mediated dilation, FMD) and endothelium-independent diastolic function (nitroglycerin- mediated dilatation, NMD) between the two groups (both P > 0.05). After treatment, FMD in each group was significantly enhanced compared with before treatment [study group: (7.5 ± 1.8) % vs. (10.9 ± 2.5) %, t = 7.486; control group: (7.7 ± 1.5) % vs. (8.9 ± 2.2) %, t = 3.057; both P < 0.05]. After treatment, FMD in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( t = 4.073, P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in NMD between before and after treatment in the control group. After treatment, NMD in the study group was significantly increased compared with before treatment [(12.5 ± 2.3) % vs. (13.6 ± 2.5) %, t = 2.196, P = 0.031]. Conclusion:Atorvastatin 40 mg once a day can effectively regulate blood lipid level and improve endothelial function in patients with hypertension and carotid plaque, which exhibits superior effects to atorvastatin 20 mg once a day.

In order to investigate the effect of deep brain stimulation on diseases such as epilepsy, we developed a closed-loop electrical stimulation system using LabVIEW virtual instrument environment and NI data acquisition card. The system was used to detect electrical signals of epileptic seizures automatically and to generate electrical stimuli. We designed a novel automatic detection algorithm of epileptic seizures by combining three features of field potentials: the amplitude, slope and coastline index. Experimental results of rat epileptic model in the hippocampal region showed that the system was able to detect epileptic seizures with an accuracy rate 91.3% and false rate 8.0%. Furthermore, the on-line high frequency electrical stimuli showed a suppression effect on seizures. In addition, the system was adaptive and flexible with multiple work modes, such as automatic and manual modes. Moreover, the simple time-domain algorithm of seizure detection guaranteed the real-time feature of the system and provided an easy-to-use equipment for the experiment researches of epilepsy control by electrical stimulation.

Objective To summarize clinical experience of emergent surgery for severe liver trauma with rupture of major blood vessels. Methods The clinical data of 12 cases suffering from severe liver trauma with rupture of perihepatic and intrahepatic large blood vessels were retrospectively analyzed. These cases were from Dec 2000 to May 2008. All the cases underwent emergency operation, 6 cases were treated with liver lobectomy: among those 1 case with right posterior lobe liver resection, 1 case with irregular right lobe liver resection, 3 cases with left hemihepatectomy, and 1 case with left lateral lobectomy. Seven cases with rupture of major blood vessels were treated by repair or ligature and/or packing including repair of posthepatic inferior vena though the middle fissure in 2 cases, and through retrahepatic space in one case, interrupted suture of the portal vein in 2 cases, interrupted suture of the right hepatic veins in 2 cases. Mattress suture was applied to the ruptured hepatic veins in 7 cases including mattress suture of the branch of right hepatic vein and middle hepatic vein in 1 case, mattress suture of right hepatic vein in 1 case, suture of middle hepatic vein in 2 cases, and suture of left hepatic vein in 3 cases. One case was treated with ligation of hepatic artery and 3 cases with gauzes packing. Results Among all the 12 cases, 9 cases were cured, 3 cases died: two were caused by severe trauma together with hemorrhagic shock, one by sever brain injury together with hemorrhagic shock. Conclusions Prompt operation, precise stop bleeding and correct operation style are the key for successful rescue of patients suffering from severe liver trauma and massive bleeding.

Objective To analyze the complications, treatments and prognosis of simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Methods Forty cases of simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation performed between Dec. 1999 and Jan. 2010 in our center were retrospectively analyzed. Results Regarding surgical complications, 4 cases had severe hematuria after operation,which needed clinical intervention, including 1 patient receiving catheterization in duodenum to stop bleeding. Two patients were treated with continuous bladder irrigation, and the remaining one received surgical haemostasis because of donor's duodenum and bladder anastomotic artery hemorrhage.Abdominal hemorrhage occurred in 4 patients, including pancreatic hemorrhage in 3 cases and duodenal muscularis hemorrhage in one case. All of them received surgical treatment for hemostasis.Abdominal infection occurred in 8 cases: one died of multiple organ failure, 2 cases were cured after drainage of abscess, 2 cases underwent surgical removal of abscess, and 3 cases were cured after antibiotic therapy. In one case of postoperative anastomotic leakage, pancreas was resected. Four cases of postoperative ileus were cured by continuous clysis with traditional Chinese medicine. Seven cases had pulmonary bacterial infections, including one cases associated with fungal infection. They were cured by the anti-infective treatment. Other complication included poor healing in 5 cases and urinary infection in 2 cases. After combined simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation, 10 patients received reoperation because of surgical complications (14 operations). The re-operation rate was 25 %, including 2 patients (4 operations) for hematuria, 4 patients for abdominal hemorrhage, 2 patients (3 operations) for abdominal infection, 1 patient for pancreatic venous thrombosis, 1 patient for anastomotic leakage, and 1 patient for pancreatic fistula. Conclusion Although simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation provides a successful and effective treatment for diabetics with endstage renal disease, surgical complication is still affecting the pancreas and kidney grafts after transplantation.
