Methods : A total of 36 male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups, who were fed with highfat diet (experimental group, n=24) and normal basic food (normal control, n=12) respectively. At the end of the 12th week, the experimental group was randomly divided into two subgroups: model group and ecdysterone group, each group contained 12 rats. From the 13th week, the rats in the normal control group and model group were lavaged with normal sodium, and the rats in the ecdysterone group were lavaged with ecdysterone at 10 mg·kg-1·d-1. At the end of the 16th week, all rats were weighed, narcotized, sacrificed, and the liver index, biochemical indicators in serum and liver tissues and the hepatic pathological changes were observed. The expression of TNFα was detected by ELISA and the expression of NFκB was measured by immunohistochemical staining. Results : At the end 16th week in ecdysterone group, the serum levels of cholesterol (TC), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were reduced markedly (212±058 vs 263±024 and 5336±1848 vs 8460±3627, both P<005; 14020±3595 vs 24359±3638, P<001); the tissue content of malondialdehyde (MDA) was decreased evidently (18454±1645 vs 23928±2376, P<001), while the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) was enhanced notably (942±052 vs 518±043, P<001); the liver index was decreased significantly in comparison with that inmodel group (435±037 vs 504±046, P<001); the degree of fatty degeneration and inflammation were relieved dramatically (546±037 vs 630±049, P<001). The expression of TNFα and the levels of NFκB were significantly lower (4304±748 vs 6156±727 and 2465±539 vs 4504±746, both P<001) in ecdysterone group compared with model group. Conclusion : The effects of ecdysterone in preventing NAFLD in rats could be related to the increase of SOD content in hepatic tissue and the decrease of MDA content, tumor necrosis factorα and NFκB.

目的 比較進展性慢性肝病及重癥肝炎患者原位肝移植(OLT)圍手術期凝血功能的變化。方法 回顧性分析我中心2004年1月至2005年12月期間行OLT治療進展性慢性肝病及重癥肝炎患者各37例的圍手術期血小板(PLT)、凝血酶原時間(PT)、活化部分凝血活酶時間(APTT)及纖維蛋白原(FIB)的變化。結果 2組患者除術前PT、APTT,術后第5 d PLT、FIB和術后第7 d FIB的差異有統計學意義外(plt;0.05),其余時段2組患者的PLT、PT、APTT及FIB 間差異均無統計學意義(Pgt;0.05), 提示重癥肝炎患者凝血功能損害更為嚴重; OLT術后,2組患者的凝血功能均逐漸恢復正常, 但并非完全同步。結論 進展性慢性肝病與重癥肝炎患者OLT圍手術期凝血功能變化顯著,應注意監測及處理,但術后2組間各指標間比較差異并不明顯。
肝臟移植作為終末期肝病的治療,自上個世紀80年代在歐美國家獲得公認以來,已在世界各國得到迅速開展。我國自90年代后期以來,在全國掀起了第二個肝移植的熱潮,迄今已完成1 000余例肝移植,在圍手術期處理、手術技術、介入放射、移植免疫、抗感染治療等各個方面均獲得豐富的經驗,我國肝移植的效果及長期生存率亦逐步趕上國際先進水平。總的來講,適合進行肝移植的病種可分為良性及惡性肝病,鑒于惡性肝病行肝移植后復發率高,長期生存率低,因而其作為肝移植的指征長期以來存在爭議,而良性終末期肝病則是肝移植的主要指征。我院自1999年2月以來連續施行肝移植114例,其中良性肝病為69例,占60.5%。本文僅針對良性肝病肝移植的一些特點談談我們的經驗和體會。
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the major chronic liver diseases that endanger human health. It is characterized by hepatic steatosis and absence of other causes of hepatic fat accumulation, such as alcohol abuse. The incidence of NAFLD is increasing year by year. However, the pathogenesis is still undefined. Porphyromonas gingivalis is a major periodontal pathogen of various periodontal disease. Apart from affecting periodontal health, Porphyromonas gingivalis is also related to the incidence of many systemic diseases. In recent years, Porphyromonas gingivalis is considered to be a risk factor of NAFLD. In this paper, the relationship between NAFLD and Porphyromonas gingivalis, as well as the possible pathogenesis are discussed.
ObjectiveTo observe intervention effect of Shenlingcao oral liquid on asymptomatic chronic hepatitis B virus carriers (AsC). MethodsA self control before-after trial was conducted in the First Affiliated Hospital of Jiangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Ninth People's Hospital of Nanchang City from November 2011 to May 2012. A total of 64 AsCs were treated by Shenlingcao oral liquid (1 bottle/d, 200 mL, once daily for 6 months). Serum HBV viral load, six specific serum markers of HBV and 11 liver function index were tested and recorded before and at the 1th, 3th, 6th months of the treatment. Analysis of variance of repeated data was conducted. ResultsAfter one month of the treatment, 35/57 (61.40%) AsCs' serum HBV-DNA loads decreased, 1 log decrease was observed in 15 cases, 2 log decrease was observed in 4 cases, and decrease under the detection limit was observed in 12 cases. 41/57 (71.93%) AsCs' serum HBV-DNA loads decreased after 3 months of treatment, 1 log decrease was observed in 21 cases, 2 log decrease was observed in 5 cases, and decrease under the detection limit was observed in 15 cases. 31/49 (63.26%) AsCs' serum HBV-DNA loads decreased after 6 months of the treatment, 1 log decrease was observed in 19 cases, decrease more than 2 log was observed in 7 cases, and decrease under the detection limit was observed in 12 cases. The serum HBV viral loads at different time points of the treatment were significantly different (P<0.001). As medication time went, AsCs' serum HBV viral loads presented a decrease trend after taking Shenlingcao oral liquid, especially obvious at the 3th month. ConclusionShenlingcao oral liquid could help promote AsCs' ability of clearing virus and controlling serum HBVDNA loads.
ObjectiveTo analyze the incidence of bacterial lung infection after orthotopic liver transplantation and its risk factors. MethodsNinety-six patients with end-stage liver disease who underwent liver transplantation from Jan. 2010 to Jun. 2012 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The relationship of preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative variables with early postoperative bacterial lung infection was explored by multivariate non-conditional logistic regression. ResultsTwenty-nine cases of 96 cases after liver transplantation occurred early bacterial lung infection, and the infection rate was 30.21%(29/96), in which G-aerobic bacteria infection accounted for 65.52%(19/29), and G+ aerobic bacteria accounted for 34.48%(10/29). Preoperative model for end-stage liver disease score(OR=2.165, P=0.001), intraoperative blood transfusion(OR=1.952, P=0.003), average of plasma creatinine during 3 days after operation(OR=1.913, P=0.001), liquid negative balance time during 3 days after operation(OR=0.916, P=0.023), and postoperative hospital stay(OR=1.923, P=0.003) were all associated with early postoperative bacterial lung infection. ConclusionsRetrograde reperfusion in orthotopic liver transplantation patients are susceptible to bacterial lung infections. Improving basic status before operation, controlling volume of intraoperative blood transfusion, the volume of transfusion, and postoperative hospital stay, and improving renal function can reduce incidence of early postoperative bacterial lung infection.
Objective To investigate the changes of indocyanine green retention rate at 15 minutes (ICGR15) of autologous peripheral blood CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transplantation in end-stage liver disease (end-stage liver, disease, ESLD) patients with different Child-Pugh grades during before and after transplantation of 3, 6, 12, 36, and 60 months. Methods The CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transplantation were performed in 60 cases of advanced liver cirrhosis with different Child-Pugh grades who were ineffectively treated with strictly conservative treatment and complied with the criterion of liver transplantation. The ICGR15 were performed before transplantation and in 3, 6, 12, 36 and 60 months after transplantation. And the results of each time point in each Child-Pugh classification group were compared, and the rate of change of ICGR15 value were compared between each Child-Pugh classification group. Results The ICGR15 values of the Child-Pugh grading groups all decreased with time. In Child A group, there were respectively significant differences between the 6 months, 12 months, 36 months, and 60 months groups after transplantation and preoperative and 3 months groups after transplantation (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between preoperative and 3 months group after transplantation (P>0.05), and there was significant difference between the 12 months and the 60 months group after transplantation (P<0.05). As same as Child A group, there were also significant differences between that time groups in the Child B group (P<0.05), but there were also significant differences between the 3 months group after transplantation and preoperative (P<0.05), and there were respectively significant differences between the 6 months and 12 months, 36 months, and 60 months group after transplantation in the Child B group (P<0.05). Also in the Child C group, there were significant differences between that time groups (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between preoperative and 3 months group after transplantation (P>0.05), and there were respectively significant differences between the 6 months and 12 months, 36 months, and 60 months group after transplantation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of ICGR15 between Child-Pugh classification groups. Conclusion Autologous peripheral blood CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transplantation can effectively improve the liver function reserve capacity of ESLD patients and improve the safety of operation for a long time.
