Early operation for fulminant acute pancreatitis: a possible way to decrease mortality

Background Although the indication and the timing for surgery in fulminant acute pancreatitis (FAP) are still controversial, our experience of surgical treatment for fulminant acute pancreaUtis may help improve the outcome for patients.Methods The clinical data of twenty-six patients with FAP from January 1, 2001 to October 1,2005 were analyzed. The diagnostic criteria fitted the 2007 Guidelines for the Management of Severe Acute Pancreatitis by the Chinese Medical Association.Results Twenty-six patients with FAP received surgical debridement, with a mortality rate of 42.3% (11/26). The postoperative mortalities in the ＞72 hour operation group and the <72 hour operation group were highly significantly different (7/8 vs 22.2% (4/18), respectively).Conclusions Early surgery may reduce the intraabdominal pressure and prevent the deterioration of FAP. An operation within 72 hours from the onset of symptoms might decrease the mortality of the disease.     

Pretreatment with Tongxinluo protects porcine myocardium from ischaemia/reperfusion injury through a nitric oxide related mechanism

Background The traditional Chinese medicine Tongxinluo can protect myocardium against ischaemia/reperfusion injury, but the mechanism of its action is not well documented. We examined the involvement of nitric oxide in the protective role of Tongxinluo. Methods Miniswine were randomized to four groups of seven: sham, control, Tongxinluo and Tongxinluo coadministration with a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor Nω-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA, 10 mg/kg i.v.). Three hours after administration of Tongxinluo, the animals were anaesthetised and the left anterior descending coronary artery ligated and maintained in situ for 90 minutes followed by 3 hours of reperfusion before death. Area of no reflow and necrosis and risk region were determined pathologically by planimetry. The degree of neutrophil accumulation in myocardium was obtained by measuring myeloperoxidase activity and histological analysis. Myocardial endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity and vascular endothelial cadherin content were measured by colorimetric method and immunoblotting analysis respectively.Results Tongxinluo significantly increased the local blood flow and limited the infarct and size of no reflow. Tongxinluo also attenuated myeloperoxidase activity and neutrophil accumulation in histological sections and maintained the level of vascular endothelial cadherin and endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity in the reflow region when compared with control group. The protection of Tongxinluo was counteracted by coadministration with L-NNA. Conclusions Tongxinluo may limit myocardial ischaemia and protect the heart against reperfusion injury. Tongxinluo regulates synthesis of nitric oxide by altering activity of endothelial nitric oxide synthase.

小脑和脑干梗塞致突发性耳聋

目的:了解小脑和脑干梗塞引起的突发性耳聋的临床特点.探讨其发病机制.方法:回顾性分析12例小脑和脑干梗塞所致突发性耳聋的临床资料.结果:该组患者主要临床表现为耳聋、眩晕、耳鸣、眼震、同侧颜面麻木感.头颅CT或MRI发现小脑或脑干有小于2 cm的梗塞灶.结论:发病机制主要为小脑前下动脉(AlCA)供血不足使小脑脑桥角或脑干缺血,损伤该区域的耳蜗神经和听神经传导通路,导致耳聋.小脑和脑干梗塞的诊断主要依据临床表现、CT或MRI检查.     

膝骨关节病的关节镜诊断治疗

目的 通过对79例84膝骨关节病的关节镜诊断治疗回顾性总结,探讨高效率、创伤小、疗效佳的方法。方法 采用关节镜微创技术,结合术前检查对膝骨关节病分为：软骨破坏型,滑膜类型,游离体型及半月板型,依此施行有针对性,局限化手术治疗。结果 69膝得到6mo-3a的随访,按膝关节综合评分表评分,优20％,良59％,可和差21％。结论 该方法具有创伤小、康复快、并发症少等优点,在病损严重的病例,全膝置换或截骨术是进一步提高总体疗效的适宜选择。     

国产全热解碳双叶瓣的动物实验

目的 :探讨人造瓣膜动物实验的方法 ,并对国产瓣的性能作动物体内评价。方法 :体外循环下行羊的二尖瓣替换术 ,先作预实验以确定实验方法 ,后作正式实验。用心导管和超声 ,并用多巴酚丁胺负荷法模拟运动条件 ,分别测定人造瓣的血流动力学参数 ;根据动物存活情况及有无血栓形成和血栓栓塞等评价其生物相容性。结果 :预实验 10只羊均死亡 ,主要与瓣环撕裂有关 ;正式实验 5只羊均存活。术中和术后 2 .5年用导管法测得平均跨瓣压差分别为 0 .69± 0 .2 3k Pa、0 .81± 0 .0 4k Pa;动物尸检未见血栓形成和血栓栓塞。结论 :瓣环撕裂是本组手术主要死亡原因 ,选择适当体重的动物和保留瓣叶的折叠缝补 ,及术后合理的呼吸支持等是实验的关键 ;该国产瓣在动物体内血流动力学和抗血栓性能优良
