To study the effect of oxidative stress on the rats with alcoholic cardiomyopathy. Methods Fortyfive male and healthy SD rats were randomly divided into the control group (20 rats) and model group (25 rats).The alcoholic concentrate in model group was increased from 5%,10%,20% to 30% every week, and maintain free drinking mass concentration of 36% alcohol. The control group drink the same calories of glucose water. Six months later, the myocardial tissues were observed both in light microscope and electron microscope .The level of MDA、SOD and MT were tested in myocardium tissue. Results In the model rats, the cells of myocardial disarray, interstitial congestion, inflammatory cell infiltration, mitochondrial swelling, vacuole formation, melt filaments, irregular nuclear membrane and nucleolus cracking. The content of MDA incresed(Plt;0.01)and the activities of SOD decreased(Plt;001),levels of MT decreased (Plt;0.01) in the cardiac muscular tissues in the model group compared with the control group. Conclusion Longterm intake of large amounts of alcohol can break the balance of oxygen free radicals, which leading to the damage of myocardial. Oxidative stress plays an important role in the etiopathogenesis of alcoholic cardiomyopathy.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the effects of tension-free herniorrhaphy on endocrine functions of patients with inguinal hernia. MethodsOne hundred and twenty-seven patients were randomly divided into tension-free group(n=65) and conventional group (n=62). The mean ages of tension-free group and conventional group were(51.8±14) year and(48.4±12) year respectively. There were 52 indirect hernias and 13 direct hernias in tension-free group. There were 51 indirect hernias and 11 direct hernias in conventional group. Bassini repair was used in conventional group. Peripheral blood samples were obtained preoperatively and 3 h, 24 h after operation for measuring the levels of cortisol, T3, TSH, insuline, Cpeptide and and glucose. The data were analysed through t test. ResultsThe levels of cortisol, C-peptide and glucose in conventional group were remarkably higher (P6”0.05) while the levels of T3,TSH were notably lower (P＜0.05) than those in tension-free group at 3 h, 24 h postoperatively, the level of insulin in conventional group was significantly higher than that in tension-free group at 24 h postoperatively. ConclusionThe results of this study indicate that tension-free repair imposes less influence on the endocrine functions of patients with inguinal hernia postoperatively than conventional repair does. This might explain pathophysiologically the quick recovery of the patients receiving tension-free herniorrhaphy.
Objective To set up the experimemtal model with superior segmentalbone defect in acetabulum and implant the three-fin acetabular component, and examine the Von Mises stresses of pelvis bone with simulating single leg position in vitro using rosette strain gages method(RSGD). Methods Four kinds of three-fin components were made based on measurement of diameter, depth and roof thickness of acetabular specimens. These kinds of threefin acetabular components based on spreaded degrees of lateral fins(0,36,45 and 60°). The superiorsegmental bone defect of acetabulum in 4 cadaver pelvis specimens was made,then simulated the actual position to place implant into acetabular bone.A blank control group was set up.After being fit up the 7 sets of rosette strain gages,then specimen to test the pelvic Von Mises stresses simulating the static load of single leg on the mechanic machine.Progressive load was graded into 150, 300,450, 600, 750 and 900 N.We obtained the strains informations about loaded andun-loaded pelvis bone. Results Based on computed the strains informations,we were informed the Von Mises stresses about pelvis bone.The maximal Von Mises stresses of selected local position was 6.93 MPa and the minimal Von Mises stresses of selected local position was 1.08 MPa. Conclusion Providing the data about the mainpart of threefin acetabular component to optimize spreaded degrees of lateral fins.
Objective To explore the influence of different stress environmentson the growth of tissue engineering blood vessels in vivo． Methods The engineering vascular scaffolds were prepared with the porcine small intestinal submucosa(SIS) wrapping vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells，which were implanted into the subcutaneous tissue(subcutaneous group), the femoral quadriceps(intramuscular group), and sheathed the femoral artery(perivascular group) respectively. Four weeks postoperatively, these cultured tissues were harvested, and evaluated by macroscopic observation and histology detection. Results The cultivated tissues in different stress environments had obvious difference in respectof the tubular configuration, cellular proliferation and tissue shape. In subcutaneous group, the wall structure integrity, seed cell proliferation and SIS scaffold decomposition were poor, lumen surface was covered without endothelial cells; in intramuscular group, integrity tubular structure had formed, seed cell proliferation was found to a certain extent, lumen surface was covered with sparseendothelial cells, and a little SIS scaffold was found, cellular and fiber structured arranged irregularly; in perivascular group, vascular-like structure formed, the seed cell growth and proliferation were good, the lumen surface was completely covered with endothelial cells, the smooth muscle cells were in good morphologicaldistribution, the antihydrostatic pressure was 247.0±35 kPa，showingsignificant differences when compared with subcutaneous group(67.0±5.8 kPa) and intramuscular group(104.0±7.6 kPa) (Plt;0.01).The total scoring of tissue engineering blood vessel formation in subcutaneous group, intramuscular group and perivascular group were 5.529±0.272，8.875±0.248 and 14.824±0.253 respectively, and the differences among them were significant (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Stress excitation has a great influence on the cellular proliferation and the growth of tissue engineering blood vessel in vivo.
Objective To investigate the relationship among rats′ stress ulcer and gastric acid, prostaglandin (PGs) and adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and to probe the pathogenesis, prophylaxis and therapy. Methods Rats′ stress ulcer model was made by cold water soaking and was properly treated with drugs such as hyoscine, dexamethasone, ranitidine and losec. The amount and pH of gastric juice, change of gastric mucosa and PGs and ACTH of blood were determined. Results After rats were fasted for 24 hours a little gastric juice was aspirated. After cold water soaking of rats gastric juice was increased with the pH decreased, there was gastric mucosal bleeding, blood PGs was decreased and ACTH was increased. These suggest that on stress gastric mucosa bleeding is related with decreased gastric juice pH, decreased PGs and increase ACTH.Conclusion To control stress ulcer, pH of gastric juice and amount of PGs should be increased. Losec can increase gastric juice pH, so losec is the first choice to control stress ulcer.
ObjectiveTo research on the advances of stress ulcer drug prophylaxis. MethodsGuidelines for stress ulcer prophylaxis in and out of China were searched and analyzed. Risk factors for stress ulcer, recommended prevention drugs and safety of medicines were summarized. ResultsThe risk factors for stress ulcer included mechanical ventilation, coagulopathy, severe sepsis, multiple organ failure, shock, severe head injury, burns, major trauma, older than 65 and drug use. The recommended prevention drugs included proton pump inhibitors, H2-receptor antagonist and misoprostol, which played a role in the reduction of bleeding in intensive care units. However, recommended drugs had little function in the reduction of bleeding in general patients outside the intensive care units, which was even not recommended or supported in the clinical literature. Related adverse effects of these drugs also needed careful consideration. ConclusionExistence of risk factors for stress ulcer does not necessarily indicate the use of preventive drugs. Drug prophylaxis is used only for critically ill patients. This view summarized by the author provides a reference for physicians and pharmacists.
Objective To investigate the effects of hand assistant laporoscopic splenectomy plus pericardial devascularization on systemic stress responses. Methods Forty patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension were selected， 20 cases of which were underwent hand assistant laparoscopic splenectomy plus pericardial devascularization (LAP group)， and the other 20 were underwent open splenectomy plus pericardial devascularization (OP group). The levels of blood glucose （BG）, insulin (Ins), triiodothyronine （T3）, tetraiodothyronine （T4）, corticosteroid （CS） and other related clinical data were measured before operation and on day 1-3 after operation, which were compared between two groups. Results There was no statistical significance between two groups on those levels before operation. On day 1 after operation， BG and CS level in both two groups were higher than those before operation (P＜0.05), but they were recovered on day 2 after operation in LAP group (Pgt;0.05), and on day 3 after operation in OP group (Pgt;0.05). BG and CS level in OP group were markedly higher than those in LAP group on day 2 after operation (P＜0.05). On day 1 after operation， Ins, T3 and T4 level of two groups were lower than those before operation (P＜0.05), but they were recovered on day 2 after operation in LAP group (Pgt;0.05) and on day 3 after operation in OP group (Pgt;0.05). Ins, T3 and T4 level in OP group were lower than those in LAP group on day 2 after operation (P＜0.05). There was no significant difference in operation time between two groups (Pgt;0.05). But laparoscopic surgery had more advantages than conventional open surgery such as reducing bleeding quantity in operation, shortening recovery time of bowel and urinary bladder function and the length of stay. Conclusion Compared with laparotomy, the laparoscope not only imposes less impact on physical stress system, but also makes recovery after operation more quickly.
ObjectiveTo investigate whether parecoxib sodium preemptive analgesia reduces inflammatory cytokines and stress hormones production in elderly patients after total hip replacement. MethodSixty patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists Classification Ⅰ-Ⅱ undergoing total hip replacement for femoral neck fracture or aseptic necrosis of the femoral head, aged between 60 and 90 years with a body weight more than 50 kg, were randomly divided into preemptive analgesia group (group P, n=30) and control group (group C, n=30). The patients in group P received parecoxib sodium 40 mg intravenously 30 min before skin incision, and another 20 mg 8 hours after the first administration. All the patients in the two groups received the administration of patient-controlled analgesia sufentanyl. We recorded blood levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), cortisol (COR), adrenaline (AD) and noradrenaline (NAD) 30 min before skin incision, and 1 hour, 6 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours postoperatively. ResultsThe blood levels of IL-6, TNF-α, COR, AD and NAD in group P at 1 hour, 6 hours, 12 hours or 24 hours postoperatively were significantly lower than those in group C (P<0.05). ConclusionsParecoxib sodium preemptive analgesia reduces postoperative inflammatory cytokines and stress hormones production in elderly patients undergoing total hip replacement.
ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) activation on cellular oxidative stress induced by high glucose in bovine retinal capillary endothelial cells(BRECs). Methods The BRECs were treated by different culture medium with various glucose concentrations (5 mmol/L glucose, 30 mmol/L glucose, 30 mmol/L glucose+10 μmol/L KU55933) as normal glucose group, high glucose group and treatment group respectively.After the cells incubated for 48 hours, the protein expression of ATM, P-ATM, Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase P38(P38), P-P38, Extracellular signal-regulated kinases(ERKs), P-ERKs was detected by Western blot; cellular ROS level was detected by Reactive Oxygen Species Assay Kit; propidium iodide/Hoechst staining was used for analysis of apoptosis; the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the supernatant was determined by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA); the paracellular permeability between endothelium cells was detected by FITC-dextran. ResultsCompared with the protein level of P-ATM, P-P38 and P-ERKs in high glucose group increased. Especially, P-P38, P-ERKs expressed much more than in high glucose group. The secretion of VEGF in high glucose group was higher than that in the normal glucose group but less than that in treatment group. The same tendency existed in ROS assay, apoptosis assay and paracellular permeability measuring. ConclusionsHigh glucose induced altered activation of ATM which might play a protective role in cellular oxidative stress. Deficiency of ATM might lead to ROS explosion, cell apoptosis and dysfunction of endothelial barrier. The mechanism might be associated with P38, ERKs and VEGF.
