RESUMO
Objective To explore the diagnosis value and the mechanism of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) in early liver damage of severe acute pancreatitis with secondary infection. Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group, the severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) group and the secondary infection of SAP (SISAP) group.The animal model was established by intraperitoneal injection of L- arginine and E. coli. After 24 hours, the serum levels of amylase, glutamate aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, C-reactive protein (CRP) and the variation of TREM-1 expression were tested. The blood and peritoneal fluid samples were collected for bacterial culture.Part of the pancreas and liver tissue were taken for histopathological score under microscope. The expression of TREM-1 at mRNA and protein level in liver tissue was detected through Real-time PCR and Western Blot. Results The histological score of pancreas and liver, serum amylase, ALT and AST were significantly higher in the SAP and SISAP groups than those in C group (P<0. 05), and higher in SISAP group than in SAP group (P<0. 05). The CRP and TNF-a expression in SAP and SISAP groups were higher then those in control group, while there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0. 262 and 0. 359 , respectively). The positive ratio of bacterial culture in blood and peritoneal fluid was 0(0/8), 12. 5% (1/8), and 100% (8/8) in control group, SAP group and SISAP group respectively. The expression of TREM-lmRNA in liver was 2. 10 ± 0. 33 in SAP group and 4. 58+ 1. 00 in SISAP group, which were significantly higher than that in control group (1. 00,P<0. 05) , and the expression of TREM-1 mRNA in SISAP group was higher than that in SAP group (P < 0.05). The expression of TREM-1 at protein level was higher in SISAP group,significantly stronger than that in control and SAP group. Conclusions TREM-1 may play an important role in the early liver damage caused by severe acute pancreatitis.
RESUMO
Objective To detect the expression of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) in the early secondary infection of acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) and to probe its diagnostic value for early infection. Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into the control (C) group, the ANP group and the secondary infection of ANP (SIANP) group. The constructions of the models were achieved through intraperitoneal injection of L-arginine and E. coli. After 24 hours, the blood and peritoneal fluid samples were collected for bacterial culture, and the serum levels of amylase, CRP, TNF-α and TREM-1 were detected. The pathological changes in the pancreas were observed. The expression of TREM-1 mRNA and TREM-1 protein in pancreatic tissue was detected by Real-time PCR and Western Blot. Results The histological score of pancreas, and serum amylase in ANP group and SIANP group were significantly higher than those in C group; the positive rate of bacterial culture of blood and peritoneal fluid in SIANP group was 100% , which suggested the model was successfully established. CRP and TNF-a levels in SIANP group were (8.7 ±3.1)mg/L and (185.7 ± 10.9) mg/L, which were not significantly different from that in ANP group [( 16.5 ±3.6) , ( 176.0 ± 18.6) mg/L]. The serum level of TREM-1, expression of TREM-1 mRNA and TREM-1 protein in pancreatic tissue was (9.3 ±0.9) ng/ml, 14.84 ± 3.45, 316.2 ± 59.2, which were significantly higher than those in ANP group [ (5.5 ±0.3)ng/ml, 4.51 ±1.44, 188.6 ±42.4, P <0.05]. Conclusions TREM-1 has diagnostic value for early secondary infection of ANP.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the value of the fusion of 99m Tc-MIBI imaging technology apply in the diagnosis of malignant lung tumor. Methods Thirty - four cases with lung nodules proved by X-ray and/or CT scanning, a total of 48 lung nodular lesions. And the imaging with-99m Tc-MIBI of chest performed at 10 minutes and 2 hours delayed after injection by GE Infinia Hawkeye 4 SPECT-CT. then the regions of interesting ( ROI) were drawn in the tumor and contra lateral position to calculate the radioactivity ratios of tumor to normal ( T/NT) , and fused with the spiral CT scanning image in the same machine, and reading the early and delayed image respectively. Judged the result of the image develops, and statistical analysis of the ratio (T/NT) according to the final pathologic consequence. Results All cases with total of 48 nodular lesions, 21 nodules were positive in early imaging, 16 nodules were positive in delayed imaging (the ratio T/NT over 3. 33). defined the delayed image positive as the final criterion, The(T/NT)ratios of Malignant lung lesions were significantly higher than the benign lesions ( P <0. 05). Negative nodes 27, 13 cases of lung cancer lesions were malignant, confirmed by postoperative pathologic examination. The falsepositive nodules 3, false-negative nodules 2. The sensitivity was: 88.88%, the specificity was: 90.9% positive predictive value ( +PV) was: 84. 21% , negative predictive value (-PV) is: 93.75%. Conclusion 99mTc-MIBI as a tumor positive imaging agent is highly sensitivity to lung lesions, but specificity is not so high.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the short-term effects between interventional arterial embolization and iodine-131 therapy in treating Graves'disease.Methods A total of 84 patients with Graves'disease (GD),confirmed by clinical data and laboratory tests,were divided into two groups:interventional group(n=42)receiving arterial embolization and iodine-131 group(n=42)receiving iodine-131 therapy.Before and after the treatment thyroid angiography and SPECT/CT imaging were performed to determine the shape and size of the thyroid,and radioimmunoassay method was used to measure serum levels of FT3,VF4,TSH and TRAb at 3.6 and 12 months after the therapy.The results were compared and statistically analyzed.The occurrence of complications was observed. Results No statistically significant difference in short-term therapeutic effects was found between interventional group and iodine-131 group.The occurrence of early severe complication was much higher in interventional group than that in iodine-131 group,while the occurrence of hypothyroidism was obviously higher in iodine-131 group than that in interventionai group.Conclusion Both interventional embolization and iodine-131 therapy have reliable effect for the treatment of Graves'disease.Iodine-131 therapy may be used in patients who plan to receive initial treatment or in patients who failed to effectively respond to other kinds of therapies,while interventional embolization may be employed in patients who are not able to receive surgery or in patients who have failed to respond to antithyroid drug treatment,or in patients whose iodine-131 intake rate is too low to undergo iodine-131 therapy,especially in patients with refractory and intractable hyperthyroidism. Interventional embolization can be regarded as an alternative treatment for Graves'disease.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the effect of early rehabilitation treatment at different time point on the motor function and activity of daily living (ADL) and emotion in acute stroke patients. Methods 120 patients with acute stroke were randomly assigned to three reha-bilitation groups and one control group according to the disease course (3 days, 5 days, 8 days when the disease is steady). Each group con-sisted of 30 eases. The patients in each group were treated with the regular medication therapy, rehabilitation groups were treated with com-prehensive rehabilitation treatment including Bobath technique therapy. Neurological deficit, motor function, balance function, ADL, emo-tion of all the patients were assessed before and 21 days after rehabilitation intervention. Results After treatment, the motor function, bal-ance function, ADL and emotion of each rehabilitation group were improved. The patients'rehabilitation scores in FMA, Fugl-Meyer balance function, MBI and HRSD got much better than that in control group. The difference was statistic significant. The effect of rehabilitation treat-ment did not show difference among rehabilitation groups. Conclusion Early rehabilitation treatment for acute stroke does benefit for stroke patients. Effect does not show vary with the start time of rehabilitation treatment within 8 days after acute stroke.
