ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate and confirm the value of minimal invasion of separation between specific subcutancous layers of rats.Methods Thirty-two male SD rats were randomized into four groups,group 1:normal incision plus separation beneath superficial fascia; group 2:normal incision plus subdermal separation; group 3:normal incision plus extended separation beneath superficial fascia ; group 4:extended incision plus separation beneath superficial fascia.Blood sampling was taken preopeatively,2 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h postoperatively.The increase of serum IL-6 and neutrophil elastase levels were compared between different groups.Results Compared with each other,the increase of serum IL-6 and NE levels in group 1 vs 3 and group 2 vs 4 was not different significantly (P value was 0.074,0.096 and 0.747,0.897,respectively).However,the increase of serum levels in group 1 vs 2,1 vs 4,3 vs 2 and 3 vs 4 was different significantly (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Operation of separating beneath superficial fascia plus small skin incision in rats conduces to relatively minimal invasion.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effects of fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy and laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy in complicated cholecystolithiasis cases. Methods The effects of fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy (n = 21) and laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (a = 18) in the 39 cases of complicated chole-cystolithiasis from our hospital within 2 years were analyzed retrospectively. Results The operation time in subtotal laparoscopic cholecystectomy group was shorter than in fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy group (88.89±18.11) min vs. (109.52±21.79) min, P < 0.05). Less blood lose (82.78±44.96) ml and fluid replacement (847.22±169.32)ml during the operation were observed in the former group than those in the later group (116.67±53.23) ml and (964.29±147.60) ml, respectively, P < 0.05). However, the patients' postoperative recovery time and the duration of postoperative hospital staying were similar in the two groups(5.56±1.20) days vs. (5.29±1.38) days, P > 0.05). Conclusions Proper use of subtotal laparoscopic cholecystectomy in complicated cholecystolithiasis cases can simplify the operation and obligate the operation time, which will increase the safety of the operation with the outcome similar to fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the influence of esculentoside A（EsA） on production of IL-1 and TNF by rabbit synovial cells induced by LPS. Methods: levels of IL-1 and TNF in the supernatant of rabbit synovial cell were determined by examining proliferation of thymic cells and by bioassay L929 cells as target cells, respectively. Results: EsA in 5-40 μg/ml could significantly inhibit the production of IL-1 and TNF from rabbit synovial cells induced by LPS. Conclusion: EsA can inhibit the production of IL-1 and TNF from synovial cells. It suggests that EsA may play a role in improving the rheumatoid arthritis.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of esculentoside (EsA) on apoptosis of murine thymocyte. Methods:Using electronic microscope, DNA agarose electrophoresis and flow cytometry analysis,the effect of EsA on apoptosis of murine thymocyte was examined. Results:The result showed that apoptosis of activated thymocyte by ConA was markedly promoted by 2.5, 5, 10 ?g/ml EsA in murine thymocyte culture for 3 h, but the spontaneous apoptosis was not affected by EsA. Conclusion:The results suggest that EsA has the positive effect on apoptosis of activated murine thymocyte.
