Objective To discuss the impacts of different doses of alcohol on the level of microparticles (EMPs) of rat endothelial cells. Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly allocated into four groups:high dose group (group A), me-dium dose group (group B), low dose group (group C) and the blank contrast group (group D). There were15 rats in each group. Rats were fed alcohol for 8 weeks. Flow cytometer was used to measure the level of circulating CD31+/CD42-EMPs in four groups, and which was compared with the alcohol dosage. Results Compared with group D, the level of circulating EMPs was significantly increased in group A and B (P＜0.05). There was no significant change in the level of circulating EMPs in group C (P>0.05). Conclusion The moderate and high doses of alcohol are harmful to the function of vascular en-dothelial cells in rats, which show a significant dose-effect relationship. The low dose of alcohol shows no effect on the func-tion of vascular endothelial cells in rats. The protective effect of alcohol needs further investigation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical features and prognosis of patients with complete left bundle branch block(CLBBB)following transcatheter device closure of ventricular septal defect(VSD)closure. Methods Clinical feathers of 11 patients with postoperative CLBBB in Department of Pediatric Cardiology,Guangdong General Hospital from January 2011 to December 2013 were collected and reviewed retrospectively. They were treated with dif-ferent protocol based on the appeared time of CLBBB occurrence and clinical symptoms. The patients were followed up, and the prognosis was recorded. Results The median age of 11 patients was 3. 9 years(3. 4 to 17. 5 years old). The median interval of intervention therapy to first attack of CLBBB was 2. 8 months(1 day to 25. 4 months). CLBBB oc-curred within 1 week to 1 month postoperatively in 4 patients,another 1 case suffered from CLBBB between 1 week to 1 month postoperatively,meanwhile 6 cases underwent CLBBB after 6 months postoperatively. The longest term of CLBBB attack postoperatively was 25. 4 months in 1 patient. The electrocardiograms on 5 patients returned to normal by only drug treatment. However,3 patients failed to recover with drug therapy,2 of them undertaken surgical procedure to re-move the occluder associated with VSD repair,1 patient recovered to normal and another converted to incomplete right bundle branch block. One of them refused to undertake surgical procedure and still bothered with persistent CLBBB. Another 3 cases did not receive special treatment due to the later attack of CLBBB(≥6 months)without clinical symp-toms. By the end of observation,the electrocardiogram(ECG)in 4 patients returned to normal,4 patients presented with persistent CLBBB. One patient's ECGs were presented with right bundle branch block. After ECG successfully returning to normal ECG by drug therapy,2 patients relapsed during follow - up,and 1 of them developed to an enlarging left ven-tricle and heart failure which led to death. Conclusions CLBBB may occur in short or long - term after VSD closure. ECG may become normal after early and appropriate treatment postoperatively. Systolic dyssynchrony and cardiac dys-function may be caused by persistent CLBBB. Therefore,patients with CLBBB after VSD closure should be treated ap-propriately without delay,and more frequent and longer follow - ups are required.

Acid-sensing ion channels( ASICs )are ubiquitously expressed both in periphery nervous system, where they are involved in nociception,mechanosensation,inflammation ,cardiac angina, and in central nervous system,where they are essential to a variety of physiologic and pathophysiologic processes,such as synaptic plasticity ,learning ,memory and ischemic brain injury. Here in the article, we present a collection of key points about ASICs, ranging from molecular identity and expression, regulatory mechanisms responsible for channel gating to their multiple functions. Finally, a future prospect for the investigation of ASICs is outlined.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of intestinal infection in patients with acute leukemia (AL) after chemotherapy. Methods The data of 103 cases of AL patients after chemotherapy from January 2014 to April 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, and categorical variables were compared by using chi-square test. Results A total of 364 cycles of chemotherapy was conducted among 103 patients, of which 66 times (18.13 %) in 59 cycles occurred intestinal infections, including twice intestinal infections in one cycle of chemotherapy in 7 cases. The incidence of intestinal infection was 27.48%(36/131) in group without complete remission (CR), and 9.87%(23/233) in CR group. There was a statistical difference between the two groups (P<0.01). Repeated intestinal infections were found in 46.67%of the patients who accepted multiple cycles of chemotherapy. In the same cycle of chemotherapy, the probability of recurrence of intestinal infection after chemotherapy was 3.7 times than patients without intestinal infection occurred during chemotherapy. The incidence of intestinal infection of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) after primary inducing chemotherapy was higher than that of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) (P= 0.019). The incidence of intestinal infection combined with neutropenic was 9.89 % (36/364), and the incidence of intestinal infection was 8.24 % (30/364) in neutrophils > 0.5 × 109/L. There was no significant difference (P> 0.05). After chemotherapy, some patients with intestinal infection occurred acute abdomen, with high mortality rate. Conclusions Intestinal infection may occur in the procession of chemotherapy and myelosuppression. Special attention should be paid on intestinal infection, including reduction of blood stream infection and risk factors, as well as timely intervention.

BACKGROUND:For the sacroiliac joint has complex structure and locates deep,its biomechanical properties have not been fully understood,even less about the study of reconstruction.OBJECTIVE:To construct a finite element model of pelvis after subtotal sacrectomy,and validate its effectiveness,which is supposed to be useful for evaluating reconstructions of sacroiliac joint.TIME AND SETTING:The establishment and validation of three-dimensional finite element model was performed in the Orthopaedic Laboratory of Changhai Hospital,Second Military Medical University between January and March 2008.MATERIALS:The CT scan images of adult males who had no pathological changes in lumber and pelvis were downloaded from CT work station in Changhai hospital.The CT scan included low lumber and whole pelvis,and got 132 DICOM images in all.METHODS:Two three-dimensional finite element pelvis models were established:① an intact pelvis model,② a defective pelvis model on which subtotal sacrectomy was performed cephalic to the S1 neural foramina.According to the biomechanical experiment of Hugate RR Jr,axial loads of 3 000 N and 1 000 N were applied on intact and defective pelvis models,respectively.The max axial displacements and stiffness on the L5 of two models were calculated and following comparison with the result in the literature.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The max axial displacements and stiffness on the L5 were observed and considered as the index reflecting sacroiliac joint stability.RESULTS:The max axial displacements of the L5 on intact and defective pelvis models were 7.99 mm and 7.68 mm,respectively.The stiffness of the L5 on intact and defective pelvis models were 375 N/mm and 130 N/mm,respectively.The max axial displacements of the L5 on intact and defective pelvis models in the literature were(10.73?5.10) mm and(11.71?5.74) mm,and the stiffness were(353?231) N/mm and(101?49) N/mm,respectivly .CONCLUSION:In this experiment,we were successful to establish the finite element model of pelvis after subtotal sacrectomy.The calculated result was similar with the reference.The model could be used to evaluate different ways to reconstruct the sacroiliac joint.

Objective To investigate the association between the RoSCo scoring system and the postopera tive complications of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.Methods The clinical data of 127 patients with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in our hospital from 2010 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.By studying all patients' preoperative clinical data,we give all the patients the RoSCo score,then divided all the patients into the RoSCo low group (3-4),RoSCo moderate group (5-6),RoSCo high group (7-8).Respectively study the association between the RoSCo score and Clavein score,operative time,intraoperative blood loss,warm ischemia time and length of hospital stay after laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.Results The RoSCo score was associated with postoperative complications of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (P ＜ 0.05) and was more accurate than the RENAL score alone.There were significant differences in bleeding,warm ischemia time,hospital stay and operation time between the low,middle and high groups of RoSCo (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The RoSCo scoring system can be used to assess the complications of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

Conclusion The combined inhalation anesthesia induction device is simple to produce and easy to carry.To solve the difficulty of convoying children into the operating room,combined inhalation anesthesia induction device with sevoflurane is more effective, safer and more humanized way when compared with the traditional one.

BACKGROUND:Clinical resection of thoracolumbar spinal tumor has a great impact on the spinal stability. Positive internal fixation is required clinicaly in order to maintain the spinal stability. The use of titanium mesh implantation can provide a firm internal fixation folowing resection of tumors. OBJECTIVE:To explore the spinal stability undergoing titanium mesh implantation with internal fixation folowing thoracolumbar tumor resection. METHODS:Twenty-four patients with thoracolumbar tumor admitted at the Central Hospital of Suining City from September 2013 to September 2014 were randomly selected and given tumor resection folowed by titanium mesh implantation with internal fixation. After treatment, patients were folowed up for 1-12 months to observe and analyze the neural functional recovery and spinal stability of the patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al the 24 patients successfuly completed the operation treatment, and there was no case of death at the end of folow-up. During the folow-up, patient's clinical symptoms and neural function were significantly relieved, and Frankel classification was significantly improved after treatment. Regular X-ray examination showed that there was no change in the position of titanium mesh and anterior internal fixation system. There was also no titanium mesh colapse, internal fixation fracture and loosening, and the spinal stability was stil excelent. These findings indicate that patients were not changed, and did not appear because the amount of loose, good spinal stability. Resection of thoracolumbar tumors showed that the thoracolumbar spinal reconstruction with titanium mesh implantation combined with internal fixation folowing tumor resection can obtain good clinical effect and excelent biocompatiblity.
