ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of controlled hypotension (CH) combined with tranexamic acid (TA) on peri-operative blood loss and coagulation function in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery. Methods Forty patients undergoing brain tumor surgery were randomly allocated into group A and group B with 20 patients in each group. Patients in group A received CH alone, while patients in group B received CH combined with TA. Coagulation factors and d-dimer levels were measured 24 hours before and after surgery. Amount of blood loss, intravenous fluid transfused, urine output and postoperative drainage were recorded. Results D-dimer levels of 24 hours after surgery increased compared with that of 24 hours before surgery. In group B, the d-dimer level increased more than that of group A (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found in coagulation factor levels between group A and group B. Amount of blood loss, intravenous fluid transfused and postoperative drainage flows of patients in group B were lower than that in group A (P < 0.05). There were no significant changes in urine output and fluid infusion volume between two groups. Conclusion CH compared with TA can reduce perioperative blood loss in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery , with no obvious coagulant function abnormality. Collectively, it should be a safe and reliable method for clinical application.
ABSTRACT
New epidemic broke out in recent year which was suspected to be caused by variant Muscovy duck parvovirus (MDPV). For this reason, new MDPV detection methods are needed for the new virus strains. In this study, a pair of primers were designed according to the full-length genome of MDPV strain SAAS-SHNH, which were identified in 2012, and were used to amplify the vp3 gene of MDPV by polymerase chain reaction. After being sequenced, the vp3 gene was subcloned into the prokaryotic expression vector PET28a. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E. coli BL21 and induced with IPTG. SDS-PAGE and Western blotting analysis showed the MDPV vp3 gene was successfully expressed. After being purified by Ni2+ affinity chromatography system, the recombinant protein was used as antigen to immunize rabbits to obtain antiserum. Western blotting analysis showed that the acquired antiserum could react specifically with VP3 protein of J3D6 strain and MDPV vaccine strain. The antiserum could also be used for detection of cultured MDPV from primary duck embryo fibroblasts by immune fluorescence assay (IFA). It could be concluded that the VP3 protein and its antibody prepared in the research could be used for detection of VP3 antiserum and antigen respectively.

Objective To study the effect of acute non-isovolemic hemodilution (ANIH) plus tranexamic acid on bleeding and coagulation factors. Methods Forty-two patients with brain tumor under general anesthesia were randomly divided into group N and group T with 21 patients in each group. Group N was given ANIH , while group T was given tranexamic acid and ANIH. Bleeding, transfusion, urine volume were recorded. Coagulation factors and D-dimer were detected one day before and after surgery. Hemoglobin was recorded before and after ANIH and after auto-blood was transfused. Results There was less bleeding in group T. Hemoglobin in group T was higher after transfusion. No significant difference was found in Group T and group N in terms of urine volume and transfusion rate. Both the two groups had no difference on variation of coagulation factors. Conclusion ANIH with tranexamic acid has no significant effect on coagulation but produces synergetic effect on decreasing bleeding. They can be applied in surgery of brain tumor safely.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of propofol on cognitive functions and hippocampus tissue in hyperlipidemia aged rats.Methods Seventy-six aged male SD rats were selected and randomly divided into basal diet with propofol injection (group PI), basal diet with normal saline injection(group N1), high-fat diet with propofol injection (group P2) and high-fat diet with normal saline injection (group P2), with 19 rats in each group.Eight weeks later,group P1 and P2 received intraperitoneal injection of propofol 100 mg · kg-1 · d-1 for 5 days.While in group N1 and N2, rats received the same intraperitoneal injection of equal volume normal saline.One day after the last injection, escape latency and space exploration were detected by Morris water maze in the next six days.One hour after the last water maze test, the serum and hippocampus were sampled to detect the expression of beta-amyloid protein and receptor for advanced glycation endproducts(RAGE) by immunohistochemical method and ELISA respectively.Results In place navigation tests,the escape incubation period(98.20±25.40)s in group P1 was obviously longer than that in N 1 group (47.50± 11.08) s (P＜ 0.01).Compared with P2 (99.79 ± 20.38) s, escape incubation period was shortened in N2 (50.70± 20.55) s (P＜ 0.05).There was no significantly difference between N2 and N1 (P＞0.05), while the escape incubation period in group P2 was longer than P1 (P＜ 0.05).In spatial probe test,platform passing number ((2.86 ±1.46)times) in group P1 were less than that in N1 group ((7.50± 1.70) times, P＜0.05).In group N2, the platform passing number ((6.60 ±3.91) times) were more than those in group P2 ((1.16 ±1.16)times, P＜0.05) while there was no significant difference between group N1 and N2 (P＞0.05).Times of crossing platform in group P2 were less than that in P1 group (P＜0.05).Compared with group N1((147.83±60.88) ng/L) and N2((152.73±87.50) ng/L) ,the expression of RAGE protein was increased in group P1((629.89±110.33) ng/L) and P2((229.89±53.20) ng/L) (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference between N1 and N2 groups(P＞0.05) ,while the expression of RAGE protein in P1 group was lower than that of P2(P＜0.05).In immunohistochemical test, positive expression cells in P1 ((18.49± 1.53) and P2 (25.67±3.08)) were higher than that in group N1(9.33±2.31) and group N2(12.14±2.52) (P＜0.05) ,while there was no significant difference between group N1 and N2(P＞0.05).Conclusions Anesthetic dose of propofol can injure spatial learning and memory ability in aged rats.Hyperlipidemia might act synergistically with propofol.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of acute non-isovolemic hemodilution in combination with tranexamic acid on cycle function blood gas and electrolytes with brain tumor surgery. Methods Forty-two patients undergoing brain tumor were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in group A received ANIH plus tranexamic acid , while patients in group B received ANIH alone. Collected blood was transfused before the end of surgery. HR、CVP、MAP,hemoglubin, blood gas and plasma electrolytes were respectively recorded before ANIH(T1), at 0 min (T1) and 1 h (T2) after ANIH, and at the end of operation (T4). Results There were no significant changes in HR, CVP, MAP. At T2, T3, T4, Hb, Hct in both two groups lower than those at T1(P <0.05); at T4, Hb, Hct in group A were higher than those in group B. There were no significant changes in pH , PaO2, PaCO2, BE between the both two groups. There were no significant changes in Na +, Cl-, Ca2+and K+between the both two groups. Conclusion ANIH has little effect on the cycle function and blood gas electrolyte. ANIH in combination with TA has a section blood effect. It can be used in the brain tumor operation with TA security.
