Results According to COA, the recovery (improving) rate among the tolal patients was classified as exellent in 20 cases, good in 3 cases, fair in 2 cases. The excellend and good rate was 92% . Conculusion Both anterior and posterior surgery were effective for cervical spondylotic myelopathy with effective decompression according to the location of abnormality.

This study is to investigate the effect of total flavonoids of Uygur medicine bugloss (BTF) on rats with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, and to explore the mechanisms by which it acts. Left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery in rats was occluded for 30 min followed by 4 h reperfusion. Meanwhile, BTF dissolved in saline was administered intraperitoneally at dosage of 10, 30 and 50 mg x kg(-1). Electrocardiograph, infarction index, serum myocardial enzymes and heart function were determined to evaluate the effect of BTF. Some other observations were carried out to explore whether inhibiting inflammation and apoptosis is involved in the mechanisms underlying BTF. Our results showed that in ischemia/reperfusion injured rats BTF could dose-dependently reduce myocardial infarction index and myocardial enzyme leakage, and enhance heart function, indicating that it possesses significant cardio protection. ELISA analysis showed that BTF could decrease the content of myocardial inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1beta, IL-6 and TNF-alpha. Western-blotting confirmed that BTF could increase the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and reduce the expression of proapoptosis protein Bax. Further more, the phosphorylation level of PI3K and Akt was upregulated by BTF treatment. BTF can protect rat against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Anti-inflammation and inhibition of apoptosis through upregulating PI3K/Akt signal pathway may contribute to the protective effect of BTF.

Objective To study critical hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) or macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) presented with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU),including clinical features and outcomes In order to explore the effect of bedside continuous hemodialysis/hemofiltration (CBP) as adjuvant treatment for severe HPS/MAS.Methods A total of 19 children with HPS/MAS were hospitalized met the diagnostic criteria for HPS from January,2009 to December,2012.Twelve cases were treated with CBP by continuous venin-venin hemodialysis/hemofiltration (CVVHDF) or high-volume hemofiltration (HVHF) following conventional anti-inflammatory therapy.The replacement liquid dose was 50-75 ml/ (kg · h).The organs function were evaluated and laboratory biomarkers including blood 、electrolytes,ferritin changes were measured before and after CBP treatment.Results Ninteen cases of HPS were acute onset and developed to MODS rapidiy after admission to PICU.The main clinical features were the irregular fever or high fever,hepatosplenomegaly and significant liver damage,nervous system dysfunction and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).Eight cases were death and mortality rate was 42.1％,and all death occurred in those aged less than 3 years old.The mortality rate were 25％ (3/12) and 71.4％ (5/7) in CBP group and non-CBP group respectively.After CBP for 6-24 hours,the fever returned to normal range and blood electrolytes improved.The serum ferritin,serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) reduced significantly.Serum creatinine (sCr),blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level improved.Four cases with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) improved and the ventilator parameters were downregulated.Conclusions Our findings indicate that HPS/MAS complicated with MODS is life threatening with high mortality rate.CBP therapy can lower the fever within a short time,correct electrolyte imbalance,stable circulatory function,improve the lung,liver,and brain function.It is suggested that CBP may be the potential effective therapy in severe HPS/MAS with MODS in children.

Objective To approach the changes of serum insulin and peptide C and determine their relationship with inflammatory reaction in patients with severe multiple trauma. Methods The serum insulin, peptide C, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-10, C reactive protein (CRP) were detected in 30 patients with severe multiple trauma at days 1,3 and 7 after trauma to analyze the dynamic changes of serum insulin and peptide C and their correlations with Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅲ ( APACHE Ⅲ), cytokines and CRP. The changes of cytokines and CRP were also compared with those of serum insulin and peptide C in patients with different outcomes. The changes of serum insulin and peptide C of 35 healthy subjects were detected and used as control. Re-sults The serum insulin and peptide C levels of patients were higher than those in control group at each time point after trauma, with remarkably positive correlation with APACHE Ⅲ. Whether the serum glu-cose and age were controlled or not,serum insulin and peptide C were positively correlated with IL-10 at each time point and with TNF-α and CRP at days 3 and 7. The levels of serum insulin, peptide C and IL-10 were decreased with time in both groups with different outcomes. Meanwhile, the levels of TNF-α and CRP were decreased in the survival groups but increased in the death groups. The levels of above indices in death group were significantly higher than survival groups at the same time point. Conclusions The increasing of serum insulin and peptide C is correlated with inflammatory reaction after severe multiple trauma. The dynamic changes of both indices can either reflect injury severity or be used as an effective index in dynamically monitoring anti-inflammatory degree of the organism.
