Changes of several metabolic and biochemical indices of dogs with both hindlimbs injured by imitative kinetic weapon / 第三军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective　To explore the characteristics of the changes of several metabolic and biochemical indices in dogs with both hindlimbs injured by kinetic weapon. Methods　12 animals were divided into 4 groups (Group Ⅰ, injured by regular weapon; Group Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ injured by imitative kinetic weapons with different energy respectively). Levels of plasma Na+,Ca2+,K+ glucose, AMY, LDH, CK and serum T3,insulin,TSH were determined before and after injured. Results　①Local wounding conditions and distant organs' injuries in group Ⅱ,Ⅲ, and Ⅳ were more serious than those in group Ⅰ. ②Levels of plasma glucose in group Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ were inereased significantly after injury than before(P<0.05), but not in group Ⅰ. Levels of Na+,Ca2+,K+,AMY,LDH in 4 groups had similar changes after injury while levels of CK in group Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ were inereased significantly than that in group Ⅰ (P<0.05). ③After injury, levels of T3 in serum of all animals showed a decreased tendency and that of insulin decreased more significantly (P<0.05). There was no difference between every two groups. Levels of TSH in group Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ were increased significantly after injured than before (P<0.05), but not in group Ⅰ. Conclusion　Not only local severe injury but also more serious injury in distant organs and more obvious changes of metabolic and biochemical indices can be induced by kinetic weapons than regular weapons.
