In vitro evaluation of ablation parameters of normal and fibrous aorta using smooth excimer laser coronary angioplasty

A modified exeimer laser energy delivery system was used to irradiate 100 segments of normal and fibrous aorta in vitro. The laser beam was scanned into 8 fiber bundles consisting of 50 fibers each resulting in a reduction of the applied pulse energy. The total repetition rate was increased to 150 Hz in order to keep the repetition rate per fiber bundle close to 20 Hz and to minimize thermal injury. The results demonstrate that effective ablation (etch rate per 8 pulses > 2.0 μm) occurred at an energy fluency of 50 mJ/mm² in both normal and fibrous aorta. Tissue damage (carbonization, tissue separation, fissures, cracks, and vacuolization) was in a range of 100 ± 28 to 152 ± 30 μm for normal aorta and in a range of 57 ± 35 to 110 ± 39 μm for fibrous aorta. We conclude that effective ablation of normal and fibrous human aorta can be achieved by the application of smooth excimer laser coronary angioplasty. This improvement of excimer laser technology may result in a reduction of shock wave- and cavitation-induced damage leading to a reduction of tissue injury. However, this awaits further in vitro and in vivo confirmation. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

内毒素休克大鼠核因子κB活化规律及其在生物蝶呤诱生中的作用

目的观察内毒素休克大鼠血浆及主要脏器核因子(NF)κB活化规律及其对生物蝶呤(BH4)和一氧化氮(NO)表达水平的影响,探讨内毒素休克时NF-κB信号通路对BH4诱生NO的分子调控机制及其与多器官功能损害的关系。方法将47只大鼠按表格随机法分为正常组(8只)、内毒素／脂多糖(LPS)组(24只,每观察时相点8只,均同时注射LPS制成休克模型)和拮抗组[15只,每观察时相点5只,均同时注射LPS并以吡咯烷二硫代氨基甲酸盐(PDTC)拮抗]。休克及拮抗组于注射LPS后2、6、12 h观察,并与正常组同法处死,无菌留取大鼠血标本及肝、肺、肾组织,测定组织中NF-κB活性和三磷酸鸟苷环水解酶Ⅰ(GTP-CHⅠ)和诱导型一氧化氮合酶(iNOS)mRNA表达水平、血浆和组织中的BH4含量及NO水平、肝脏和肾脏功能指标、肺组织髓过氧化物酶活性。结果与正常组(例如肺组织中NF-κB活性为26±6)比较,LPS组大鼠组织中NF-κB迅速活化(P<0．01),并于注射后2 h达峰值(肺组织中为291±44);LPS组各组织中GTP-CHⅠ和iNOS mRNA表达、BH4和NO水平也较正常组明显升高(P<0．05或0．01),至伤后12 h仍持续较高水平。此外,该组相应器官功能均受到不同程度的损害。应用PDTC的拮抗组大鼠各组织中NF-κB活性均较LPS组有所降低,GTP-CHⅠ、iNOS mRNA表达及BH4、NO水平显著受抑,肝、肺、肾功能明显改善。结论内毒素休克时机体内NF-κB通路高度活化,并对BH4／NO系统具有明显调节效应;可通过下调BH4介导的iNOS的过度活化抑制NF-κB信号途径,从而减轻组织炎性反应,对机体脏器功能起到保护作用。

Fragmentation process of current laser lithotriptors

Background and Objective: Flashlamp pumped dye (FPDL), Q-switched Nd:YAG, and alexandrite lasers are the most clinically used laser lithotriptors. Although calculi are fragmented by laser induced mechanical stresses for all lithotriptors, different fragment sizes and fragmentation efficiencies have been reported. In this work the effect of the pulse duration and pulse shape on the fragmentation processes is studied. Material and Methods: Fragmentation processes are characterized on model stones and on sensing target fibers. Stone fragmentation and cavitation bubble generation are observed by video flash photography. Shock wave occurrence and strength are monitored with an hydrophone. Results: For the FPDL, stone fragmentation is induced by the collapse of the large cavitation bubble formed. For the Q-switched Nd:YAG, fragmentation is already observed during the laser pulse, at the plasma onset, although further fragmentation can occur at the bubble collapse. For pulse durations corresponding to the alexandrite, an intermediate fragmentation regime is observed. Conclusion: For the first time the physical basis of the observed differences in the fragmentation efficiencies of current laser lithotriptors is described. For nanosecond durations the fragmentation processes are governed by plasma induced shock waves. On the contrary, for microsecond durations fragmentation is governed by cavitation. The high fragmentation efficiency of microsecond lasers is due to a high laser energy transfer into cavitation. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Use of a Paracorporeal Pneumatic Ventricular Assist Device for Postoperative Cardiogenic Shock in Two Children with Complex Cardiac Lesions

Pneumatic ventricular assist device (VAD) was utilized for cardiogenic shock after intracardiac operation in two children with complex cardiac anomalies based with single ventricle. In the first case (a 10-year-old), after a modified Fontan operation, VAD was placed between the functional left atrium and ascending aorta, serving as a "artificial single ventricle" with neither pumping chamber nor artificial support in the right side of the heart. The systemic circulation was maintained by keeping relatively high central venous pressure. In another child (a 3-year-old) who underwent repair of incompetent atrioventricular valve leaving intracardiac lesions, VAD was placed between the common atrium and ascending aorta, serving as a pump for both pulmonary and systemic circulation with regulation of pulmonary blood flow through an aortopulmonary Gore-Tex shunt. The circulatory assist with VAD was utilized for 5 and 6 days, respectively. Although weaning from the device was not feasible in both patients because of the pulmonary dysfunction, these experience showed the possible use of VAD for cardiogenic shock after surgery in patients with complex cardiac anomalies.
