Abstract：

Objective To investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on the systemic inflammation response in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), and to explore HBO therapy mechanisms. Methods Seventy patients with severe TBI were randomly divided into a routine treatment group ( RT group, n = 35 ) and an HBO group (n=35). All patients received conventional treatment, but the HBO group received additional early HBO therapy. Twenty age-and sex-matched normal subjects were recruited and served as normal controls. Serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) was measured by ELISA, and C reactive protein (CRP) was also measured on days 1, 7, 14 and 21 after injury. Sequential organ failure assessments (SOFAs) and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores were evaluated at the same time points. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) was assessed daily. Results The concentrations of serum IL-6 and CRP increased obviously following TBI, but patients in the HBO group exhibited significantly lower levels at each time point than those in the RT group. In the HBO group fewer cases of SIRS developed,and they had a significantly shorter average duration than those in the RT group. The average SOFA score in the HBO group was significantly lower than that of the RT group at days 14 and 21 after injury, and the GCS scores had improved significantly more by day 21. Compared with the patients who were free of SIRS, the patients with SIRS showed higher levels of IL-6 and CRP, higher SOFA scores as well as lower GCS scores ( all differences statistically significant). Conclusions HBO therapy can attenuate systemic inflammation after TBI, protect the functions of important organs and improve clinical outcomes. Decreasing the level of IL-6 may contribute to the effectiveness of HBO.     

高压氧对脑梗死患者血浆SOD和CRP的影响及临床意义

Objective To study the effect of hyperbaric oxygenation(HBO) therapy on the activities of serum SOD and CRP of patients with cerebral infarction and its clinical significance. Methods 78 patients with cerebral infarction were randomly divided into hyperbaric oxygen group (HBO Group, 40 cases)and clinical group (38 cases). The clinical group was treated with clinical conventional treatment only. HBO group was treated with HBO combined with clinical conventional treatment. 21 healthy volunteers were assigned to control group. Before and after treatment, the activities of serum SOD and CRP level were measured, and the curative effect were evaluated. Results The pretreatment serum SOD and CRP of the HBO group and clinical group were significantly different from the control group (P＜ 0. 01). Compared with the pretreatment and posttreatment serum level of the HBO group, SOD raised, CRP lowered, the difference was significant(P＜ 0. 01).Compared with clinical group, SOD raised, CRP lowered and the total cure rate of the HBO group were more significant different(P ＜0.01). Conclusion HBO therapy raised the activities of SOD and lower the level of CRP in serum of the patients with cerebral infarction, and improved the free radicals scavenging ability in the body. Therefore, HBO therapy has a good effect for cerebral infarction. The experiment suggests that the activities of SOD and CRP level in serum can be used to judge the curative effect and prognosis of HBO therapy for cerebral infarction.

Abstract：

Objective To investigate the effect of psychological intervention combined with electroacupuncture and hyperbaric oxygen therapy on patients with depression after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods Forty-five patients with depression after TBI were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group. The two groups were both treated with routine medication and anti-depression drugs ( Fluoxetine ) for 8 weeks as a routine course of treatment, but psychological intervention combined with electroacupuncture and hyperbaric oxygen therapy was added to the treatment group's regimen. Hamilton Depression Scale ( HAMD), Modified Edingberg Scandinavian Stroke Scale (MESSS) and Quality of Life-index (QL-INDEX) scores were evaluated at the end of 8 weeks.Results There was no significant difference in the average HAMD, MESSS or QL-INDEX scores of the two groups before therapy. After treatment, the average HAMD and MESSS scores of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group, and the average QL-INDEX score was significantly higher. Conclusions Psychological intervention combined with electroacupuncture and hyperbaric oxygen therapy plays an important role in the treatment of patients with depression after TBI to improve their mental status, treatment effectiveness and quality of life.     

血液灌流在急性重度有机磷农药中毒治疗中的应用

Objective The purpose of the study was to evaluate the applications and value of hemoperfusion (HP) in the treatment of acute severe organophosphorus pesticide poisoning. Method Patients who had been di-agnosed with acute severe organophosphorus pesticide poisoning were selected for the study between January and October 2008. The patients were randomly divided into three groups: A group (HA230-type hemoperfutor), B group (HA330-type hemoperfutor), and C group (control group, without HP treatment). Patients in the three groups underwent the same conventional treatments except for the HP. The curative effect, cholinesterase (CHE) activities and the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β,IL-6, and IL-8 in serum were statisticaUy analyzed. Results The cure rate of the A and B groups was significantly higher than the C group (P≤0.05). The cumulative dosage of at-ropine and average hospitalization days in the C group were significantly higher than the patients in the A and B groups (P <0.01). As well, the CHE activities were obviously up-regulated after the HP h-eatment in A and B groups (P < 0.01). At 24 hours after HP treatment, the level of CHE activities in the B group was much higher than the level in the A group (P≤0.05). Levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 were down-regulated after the HP treatment in the A and B groups (P < 0.01). An internal comparison revealed that the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8 were lower in the B group than the A group (P <0.01). Conclusions HP can be used for treating acute severe organophosphorus pesticide poisoning, likely functioning by absorbing poisons from the blood and acting to reduco inflammatory cytokines.

血必净与低分子肝素对严重脓毒症患者凝血功能及预后的影响

Objective To compare between the impact of Xuebijing injectio (a Chinese herbal medicine preparation) and that of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) on coagulation function and prognosis in patients with severe sepsis, so as to guide the treatment of sepsis. Method A total of 89 patients with severe sepsis were randomly(random number) divided into 3 groups, namely Xuebijing group (group A),LMWH group (group B) and routine group (group C). The patients of group C received a series of remedies according to the guideline for severe sepsis. The patients of group A were treated with Xuebijing injectio in addition to routine treatment. The patients of group B were treated with LMWH along with routine treatment.Data of blood coagulation function tests and APACHE Ⅱ score of patients in three groups before and after treatment were analyzed respectively. The 28-day mortality and length of hospital stay were compared among three groups. All data were analyzed by using t-test, Analysis of Variance, q-test, x2-test and rank sum treatment, all markers of the blood coagulation function tests in group A improved significantly after treatment (P＜0.01), while only some markers of the blood coagulation function tests improved in the other two groups ( P ＜ 0. 05 or P ＜ 0. 01 ); After treatment, the blood coagulation function in group A improved significantly more than that in other two groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ), while there were some markers of the blood coagulawith the data before treatment, the APACHE Ⅱ score in group A and group B decreased after treatment (P＜0.05). After treatment, the APACHE Ⅱ score of group A and group B decreased significantly more than that of group C ( P ＜ 0.05). But there was no significant difference between group A and group B ( P ＞Xuebijing obviously improves the blood coagulation function in patients with severe sepsis, while LMWH only improves some markers of the coagulation function tests. Both Xuebijing and LMWH reduce mortality and improve prognosis of patients with sepsis.     

A preliminary trial of extracorporeal shock waves for the treatment of ⅢB chronic prostatitis

Objective To assess the effect of extracorporeal shock waves(ESWs)as a treatment for ⅢB chronic prostatitis(CP).Methods Forty-six men with ⅢB CP were randomly divided into an experimental group (n=34)and a control group(n=12).The patients in experimental group received low energy ESW treatment,20000 impulses in 10 sessions over 2 weeks.The patients in control group received sham ESW treatment without shock waves energy under the same other conditions as in experimental group.Pain,urination and quality of life/impact were assessed with National Institutes of Health-chronic prostatitis symptom index(NIH-CPSI).Both groups were assessed at baseline,post-treatment and at a 4-week follow-up.Resuits The total NIH-CPSI scores,pain scores and quality of life/impact scores in experimental group decreased significantly post-treatment(P＜0.01),but urination scores did not(P＞0.05).Similar decreases of these scores were also found in control group post-treatment.The total NIH-CPSl scores and pain scores maintained at a lower level at the 4-week follow-up in experimental group,but the scores returned to the level as pre-treatment in control group.The effectiveness rates and prominent effectiveness rates in experimental group were significantly higher than those in control group post-treatment and at the 4-week follow-up(all P＜0.05). Conclusions ESWs was effective in the treatment for ⅢB CP.After ESWs treatment pain alleviated,symptoms reducea and quality of life improved.     

Clinical significance and prognostic value of tumor necrosis factor-α and dickkopf related protein-1 in ankylosing spondylitis

BACKGROUND Ankylosing spondylitis(AS)frequently occurs in people aged 30-45 years,and its prevalence is generally believed to be between 0.1%and 1.4%globally.At present,the“gold standard”for diagnosis of AS requires the provision of pelvic X-rays,which makes it more difficult to perform in population-based epidemiological studies.Therefore,the identification of serological indicators related to the diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of AS patients is of great significance.AIM To analyze the therapeutic,diagnostic significance and prognostic value of dickkopf-related protein-1(DKK-1)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in AS.METHODS A total of 113 patients with active AS were selected as the research group,and 100 healthy subjects who underwent physical examination were selected as the control group.The levels of DKK-1 and TNF-α in peripheral blood in the two groups were compared.The diagnostic and predictive values of DKK-1 and TNF-α for AS were analyzed with ROC curves,and the factors influencing AS recurrence were analyzed with COX regression.RESULTS Before treatment,the research group showed lower DKK-1 levels but higher TNF-αlevels than the control group(both aP<0.05).In the research group,DKK-1 was up-regulated and TNF-αwas down-regulated after 12 wk of treatment(aP<0.05).The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of DKK-1 combined with TNF-αfor diagnosing AS were 0.934,82.30%and 97.00%,respectively.Before treatment,the area under the curve,cutoff value,sensitivity and specificity of DKK-1 for predicting the curative effect were 0.825,68.42 pg/mL,73.68%and 80.00%,respectively,and those of TNF-αwere 0.863,32.79 ng/L,92.11%and 77.33%,respectively.DKK-1 and TNF-αlevels after treatment were closely related to the curative effect(aP<0.05).C-reactive protein,the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index,DKK-1,and TNF-αwere risk factors for AS recurrence(aP<0.05).CONCLUSION DKK-1 and TNF-αare effective in the diagnosis and treatment of AS and are risk factors for its recurrence.In addition,DKK-1 may be a potential target for the diagnosis of AS.     

高压氧干预下急性脑梗死患者CD11及CD54变化及其对预后的影响

Objective To observe the changes of CD11 a, CD11c and CD54 and its' influence on prognosis after the intervention of hyperbaric oxygen(HBO) in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI).Methods Sixty-four ACI patients were divided into control group( C group) and HBO therapy group( HBOT group).C group (33 cases) received routine treatment only, HBOT group ( 31 cases) received routine treatment and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.CD 11 a, CD11 c and CD54 were measured in both groups at ≤72h, the 7th d, 10th d, 12th d, 20th d after ACI, and neural functional damage scores(NDS) were evaluated at the same time.CD11a, CDllc and CD54 were also measured in normal control group (25 cases).Results Plasma levels of CD11a, CD11c and CD54 rose significantly both in HBOT group and C group and peaked at≤72 h after ACI, there was no significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05), then declined at the 7th d.Levels of CD11 a, and CD11c maintained at the peak for 7 d in H BOT group and for 10 d in C group.CD54 peak remained for 10 d in HBOT group, and for 12 d in C group.A correlation analysis and linear regression analysis showed that the NDS levels at 20th d (short-term curative effect), 6 months and 12 months (long-term outcome) could be explained by 97.3 % , 96.7% and 96.6% , respectively by the admission levels of CD11 a and/or CD11 c and/or CD54 and other related factors.Conclusion After hyperbaric oxygen therapy peak level duration of CD11a, CD11c and CD54 could be shortened.Hyperbaric oxygen could influence intercellular adhesion molecule changing process, reduce leukocytes adhesion, decrease expressions of CD11a CD11c and CD54, and protect ACI patients.Before treatment, expression of CD11a, CD11c and CD54 may predict the severity, short or long-term outcome and prognosis of ACI patients.
