Objective:To investigate the effects of Resolvin D1 (RvD1) on the inflammatory response and the expression of Nod-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3) inflammasomes in mice with acute lung injury.Methods:The 30 male BALB/c mice weighing 25-30 g were divided into 3 groups(each group with 10 mice). Mice in the normal control group were given normal saline by tail vein injection.Mice in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group were given the same volume of LPS (10 mg/kg) via tail vein injection.Mice in the RvD1 group were injected with RvD1 (5 μg/kg) through the tail vein 30 minutes prior to LPS administration.Mice were humanely sacrificed after 6 hours.Histopatholo-gical changes of lung tissue, the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin(IL)-18 and IL-1β, and the expression of NLRP3 inflammasomes in lung tissue were measured.Results:After LPS administration, the lung of mice showed pathological damage.The levels of pro-inflammatory factors IL-18 and IL-1β as well as the expression of NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a card(ASC)and Caspase-1 in the LPS group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group (all P<0.05). After pretreatment with RvD1, the pathological damage of lung tissue was alleviated.The levels of pro-inflammatory factors IL-18 and IL-1β as well as the expression of NLRP3, ASC and Caspase-1 in the RvD1 group were significantly lower than those in the LPS group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:RvD1 can attenuate the pulmonary inflammation in acute lung injury and inhibit the release of pro-inflammatory factors, which is possibly related to the suppression of NLRP3.

OBJECTIVE： To investigate the substance basis and mechanism of Xiaochaihu decoction in treatment of sepsis， and to provide reference for clinical application and R&D of the decoction. METHODS： Based on TCM integrative pharmacology platform （TCMIP）， chemical component analysis of Xiaochaihu decoction， disease target prediction， gene function and pathway enrichment analysis were all performed. The multi-dimensional network relationship of “TCM-chemical components-core targets-key pathways” was established， and the mechanism of Xiaochaihu decoction in treatment of sepsis was investigated. RESULTS： A total of 224 predicted chemical ingredients of Xiaochaihu decoction （including saikoside， ginsenoside， glycyrrhizin， etc.） interacted with 118 key targets about sepsis， including PF4， MYD88， TLR4， CD14， NOS3， etc. Its anti-sepsis mechanism involved nervous system， endocrine system， immune response and energy metabolism， etc. CONCLUSIONS： Based on “neuronal- endocrine-immune-metabolism”， Xiaochaihu decoction achieved its role in regulating sepsis by multi-level， multi-channel and multi-channel. This research may reveal the potential mechanism of Xiaochaihu decoction for sepsis， and the prescription provide theoretical basis for further experimental research of pharmacodynamic substance basis and mechanism of action．

Objective To investigate the efficacy of modified 270°spinal canal decompression combined with one-stage pedicle screw fixation and vertebral reconstruction for severe thoracolumbar fractures.Methods A retrospective case-control study was made on 44 cases of severe thoracolumbar fractures treated from January 2009 to June 2014.There were 34 males and 10 females, with age range of 20-68 years (mean, 37.9 years).The injured vertebrae included T11/12 in one case, T12-L1 in 10, L1/2 in 21, L2/3 in nine and L3/4 in three.Injury type was all AO type B2.According to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA), neurological deficit was Grade A in three cases, Grade B in five, Grade C in 22, and Grade D in 14.Load sharing score (LSC) was 7-9 points (mean, 8.1 points), while the thoracolumbar injury classification and severity score (TLICS) was 7-9 points (mean, 8.2 points).According to the difference of surgical procedures, all cases were divided into traditional group (21 cases) and improved group (23 cases).The patients in traditional group were treated by 270° spinal canal decompression combined with one-stage pedicle screw fixation and vertebral reconstruction, and those in improved group were treated by modified 270°spinal canal decompression combined with one-stage pedicle screw fixation and vertebral reconstruction.Between-group differences were compared with regard to operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage, allogeneic blood transfusion, pain visual analogue scale (VAS) at postoperative 72 hours, Cobb angle, anterior vertebral height, spinal canal compromise, Denis score, work state, neurological function, bone graft fusion and complications.Results Duration of follow-up was (32.4±15.8)months (range, 12-60 months).No wound infection or deterioration of neurological function was found after operation.Operation time was (2.4±0.5)hours in traditional group, less than (2.8±0.6)hours in improved group (P<0.05), while there were no significant differences in intraoperative bleeding, postoperative draining and blood transfusion between the two groups (P>0.05).VAS was (3.2±0.9)points in traditional group and (3.3±0.9)points in improved group at postoperative 72 hours (P>0.05).Cobb angle, anterior vertebral height and spinal canal compromise in both groups obtained well recovery and maintained after operation (P<0.05), but the recovery of spinal canal compromise was better in improved group than traditional group [(2.1±1.8)% vs.(11.8±6.1)%] (P<0.05).Denis score and work state were similar between the two groups (P>0.05).At the last follow-up, ASIA Grade A was noted in three cases, Grade C in two, Grade D in 23, and Grade E in 16.Bone union was achieved in all cases, with no implant loosening or breakage observed.Thirteen cases in traditional group were found with residual bone fragments in the spinal canal after surgery, and two of them received revision surgery.Conclusions Either modified or traditional 270° spinal canal decompression combined with one-stage pedicle screw fixation and vertebral reconstruction can attain satisfactory clinical results in treatment of severe thoracolumbar fractures.However, the modified 270°spinal canal decompression can achieve more thorough decompression without reducing stability of the spine.

Objective To compare the value of acoustic structure quantification(ASQ) and shear wave elastography(SWE) in the evaluation of diagnostic accuracy of liver fibrosis.Methods One hundred and thirty-five patients with chronic hepatic diseases enrolled in our study were underwent ASQ,SWE and liver biopsy.Correlation between Total Mode,BR ratio,the elastic modulus and pathological stages of liver fibrosis were analyzed by Spearman's rank test.ROC curves were set up by evaluating the degree of hepatic fibrosis through Total Mode,BR ratio,the elastic modulus.Results The significant positive correlation were observed between Total Mode,BR ratio,the elastic modulus and pathological stages of liver fibrosis(r =0.46,P =0.000; r =0.49,P =0.000; r =0.68,P =0.000,respectively).Total Mode,BR ratio,and the elastic modulus,of each pathological stages,had statistically significant differences (F =6.05,P =0.000 ; F =5.17,P =0.000; F =48.82,P =0.000,respectively).The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) set up by evaluating the pathological stages of fibrosis (S≥ 1,S≥2,S≥3 and S =4) through the elastic modulus were larger than that of Total Mode and BR ratio(all P ＜0.05).But the AUC for the diagnosis of fibrosis of Total Mode and BR ratio showed no statistically significant differences(all P ＞0.05).Conclusions SWE was more accurate than ASQ parameters (Total Mode,BR ratio) in grading hepatic fibrosis.ASQ parameters (Total Mode,BR ratio) were observed well-correlated with the pathological staging of hepatic fibrosis.

Objective To obtain the elasticity value of benign and malignant breast solid lesion with real-time shear wave elastography (SWE),in order to assess the value of quantitative elastography with SWE in diagnosis of benign and malignant breast solid lesions.Methods From June 2012 to November 2012,SWE was performed in 125 breast lesions of 103 female patients with pathologically confirmed results,to obtain the elastic modulus (mean,maximum,minimum).Taking pathologic results as reference,ROC curves were used to assess diagnostic performance.Results 87 lesions of 66 patients were pathologically confirmed benign whereas 38 lesions of 37 patients were malignant.The maximum,mean,and minimum elasticity value of benign lesions was 47.2 (7.4-192.0) kPa,22.4 (1.8-90.7) kPa,36.3 (5.3-124.7)kPa; whereas of malignant ones was 192.0(42.7-300.0)kPa,68.1 (0.1-192.0)kPa,138.0(23.9-271.1)kPa.The maximum,minimum and mean elasticity value between benign and malignant lesions had statistically significant difference(P ＜0.01).The area under the ROC curve of the maximum,minimum and mean elasticity value was 0.935,0.853 and 0.917(P ＜0.01).Taking 87.65 kPa as the threshold of the maximum elasticity value,the sensitivity was 91.4％ and the specificity was 88.5％.Taking 37.15 kPa as the threshold of the minimum elasticity value,the sensitivity was 80.0％ and the specificity was 83.9％.Taking 66.85 kPa as the threshold of the mean elasticity value,the sensitivity was 85.7％ and the specificity was 88.5％.Conclusions SWE can assess the stiffness of the breast solid neoplasm by quantitatively measuring the elastic modulus,thus providing diagnostic basis in differential diagnosis of breast lesions.SWE elastic modulus value measurement for breast solid lesions provides a new effective and objective diagnostic method.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and treatment method for no midline shift-severe craniocerebral trauma accompanied with post-traumatic acute diffuse brain swelling (PADBS).Methods 60 PADBS patients were randomly divided into conservative treatment group and operation group,30 patients in each group.The operation group was treated with intracranial pressure monitoring by implantation of the probe and decompressive craniectomy,while the conservative treatment group received conservative treatment.The postoperative recovery was observed.Results The GCS scores of operation group postoperative 7d and 15d were (11.21 ± 2.24) and (12.88 ±2.31),which were obviously higher than (7.47 ± 1.51) and (8.19 ± 1.28) of the conservative treatment group (t =2.215,2.321,all P ＜ 0.05).Postoperative long-term follow-up results indicated that,according to GOS score,63.3％ patients in the operation group recovered well,which was significantly higher than 26.7％ in the conservative treatment group.While the percent of patients with coma or dead was 6.7％ and 10.0％ in the operation group,which were significantly lower than the conservative treatment group (x2 =15.721,4.172,3.84,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion In general,PADBS could not be cured easliy,the operation methods of using intracranial pressure monitoring and decompressive craniectomy based on conservative treatment could help to evaluate the trauma objectivly,detect the changes of disease earlier,treat in time and assess the prognosis accurately,all which would reduce the mortality.

OBJECTIVETo compare the abilities of transient elastography (TE) versus real-time tissue elastography (RTE) for assessing liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease.

METHODSNinetytwo patients with chronic liver disease were enrolled in the study, and included 77 cases of chronic hepatitis B, 4 cases of chronic hepatitis C, 4 cases of autoimmune liver disease, 2 cases of primary biliary cirrhosis, I case of abnormal bile duct development, and 4 cases of unknown etiology.All patients were assessed by both TE and RTE in a single day.The correlation coefficient of liver fibrosis level and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of S more than 2 and =4 of TE and RTE were determined.The values were compared using findings fiom pathological analysis as reference.

RESULTSThe correlation coefficient of liver fibrosis level was significantly higher for TE (r =0.755, 95% CI:0.651-0.831, P =0.000) than for RTE (r=0.481, 95% CI:0.306-0.624, P =0.000) (Z=3.07, P =0.002).The areas under the ROC curves for S more than 2 and =4 were 0.903 and 0.740 for TE and 0.915 and 0.786 for RTE, respectively, indicating that the performance of TE was superior to that of RTE.
