ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the clinical effect and safety of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in the treatment of liver cirrhosis with esophageal variceal bleeding.Methods:86 cases of cirrhotic patients with esophageal and gastric varices bleeding admitted in our hospital from August 2013 to April 2015 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group with 43 cases in each group.The control group underwent percutaneous transhepatic coronary vein embolization (PTVE) treatment,while the observation group were treated with TIPS.The success rate of surgery,the incidence of various complications,the long-term survival rate and the symptoms and the changes of liver function after operation were compared between the two groups of patients.Results:The portal vein pressure after operation in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P=0.00),at 3 months,6 months and 12 months after operation,the rebleeding rate in the observation group were significantly lower than that of the control group (P＜0.05),but the incidence of hepatic encephalopathy showed no significant difference between the two groups (P＞0.05);before operation and at 6 months and 12 months after operation,the Child-Pugh score,serum TBIL,DBIL levels showed no significant difference between the two groups (P＞0.05),at 3 months after operation,the Child-Pugh score,serum TBIL,DBIL levels in the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P＜0.01);the 1 year survival rate showed no significant difference between two groups (P=0.72).Conclusion:TIPS could effectively improve the symptoms of varicose veins,better on liver function damage,and enhance the long-term survival high rate with high safely in the treatment of esophageal variceal bleeding in patients with cirrhosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of captopril in treatment of acute pancreatitis and its influence on serum C reactive protein ( CRP) .Methods 100 cases of acute pancreatitis patients were randomly divided into the control group and observation group,50 cases in each group.The control group was treated with fasting,gastroin-testinal decompression,somatostatin, anti-inflammatory and other conventional treatment, while the observation group was given captopril on basis of routine treatment,the effective rate after 7 days of treatment,pain relief time,amylase returned to normal time,pancreatic edema improved time,serum CRP before and after treatment were compared be-tween the two groups of patients.Results The effective rate after 7 days of treatment of the observation group was 86%,which was significantly higher than 72%of the control group(χ2 =7.334,P<0.05);The pain relief time,am-ylase returned to normal time,pancreatic edema improved time of the observation group after treatment were (1.75 ± 0.44)d,(3.49 ±1.22)d,(7.50 ±2.39)d,respectively,which of the control group were (2.25 ±0.58)d,(4.25 ± 1.59)d,(9.25 ±2.87)d,respectively,there were statistically significant difference between the two groups(t1 =3.55,t2 =4.18,t3 =8.33,all P<0.05);the serum CRP level of the observation group after treatment was (10.39 ± 3.66)mg/L,improved obviously compared to (25.46 ±8.33)mg/L of the control group,the differences between the two groups was statistically significant(t=11.45,P<0.05).Conclusion Captopril has a good effect in treatment of acute pancreatitis,which can effectively improve the level of serum CRP.
ABSTRACT
Objectives: To detect the expressions of mTOR and HIF-1?and their relationship with angiogenesis in gastric carcinomas. Methods: The expressions of mTOR and HIF-1?in gastric carcinomas tissues(n=70)and normal tissues(n=45)were measured by immunohistochemistry staining.CD34 immunostaining was used to measure the microvascular density(MVD).Results: The rates of the mTOR and HIF-1? positive expression were 51.4% and 67.1% respectively. MVD value of gastric cancer tissues was much higher than that of normal tissues(t=4.358, P
