Objective: To investigate the effects of plasma lipopolysaccharide (LPS) concentration changes on platelet release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and thrombospondin (TSP)-1 in patients with decompensated cirrhotic portal hypertension after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure. Methods: 169 cases with cirrhotic portal hypertension were enrolled, of which 81 cases received TIPS treatment. LPS, VEGF, and TSP-1 concentrations with different Child-Pugh class in peripheral blood plasma of patients were measured. After pre-incubation of normal human platelets with different concentrations of LPS and stimulated by collagen in vitro, platelet PAC-1 expression rate, VEGF, and TSP-1 concentrations were detected. PAC-1 expression rate and the concentrations of LPS, VEGF and TSP-1 in peripheral blood plasma of patients before and after TIPS procedure were detected. The relationship between plasma LPS, VEGF and TSP-1 concentrations and Child-Pugh score changes in patients after TIPS procedure was analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed by t-test, one-way ANOVA or Pearson's rho according to different data. Results: Plasma LPS and TSP-1 concentrations were significantly higher in Child-Pugh class C patients than class A and B, but the concentration of plasma VEGF was significantly lower than class A and B (P < 0.01). In vitro experiments showed that concentration of LPS, TSP-1, and platelet PAC-1 expression rate was higher in the supernatant, but the difference in the concentration of VEGF in the supernatant was not statistically significant. Portal vein pressure and platelet activation were significantly decreased (P < 0.01) in patients after TIPS procedure. Portal venous pressure, platelet activation, plasma LPS, and TSP-1 levels were significantly decreased continuously, while VEGF levels were significantly increased continuously after TIPS procedure. Plasma LPS concentration was positively correlated with TSP-1 concentration (r = 0.506, P < 0.001), and negatively correlated with VEGF concentration (r = -0.167, P = 0.010). Child-Pugh score change range was negatively correlated with change range of plasma VEGF concentration (r = -0.297, P = 0.016), and positively correlated with change range of plasma TSP-1 concentration (r = 0.145, P = 0.031) after TIPS. Conclusion: Portal venous pressure gradient, plasma LPS concentration and corresponding platelet activation was decreased in cirrhotic portal hypertension after TIPS procedure, and with TSP-1 reduction and VEGF elevation it is possible to reduce the liver function injury caused by portal venous shunt.

@#【Objective】To explore the image evaluation value of multi-model CT in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke with Solitaire stent embolectomy. 【Methods】 A total of 62 patients diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke from January 2015 to June 2016 in Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital were included in this study. Multi- model CT inspection,including CT scan(NCCT),CT angiography(CTA)and CT perfusion imaging(CTP),was performed in all patients within 3~8 h. The improved vascular TICI classification standard(mTICI)was used to assess vascular embolization,and we evaluated the responsible vessels and blood perfusion state by CTA and CTP blood vessels ,to determine the feasibility of embolectomy with Solitaire stent preliminarily. The patients underwent multi-mode CT examination 24 h after stent embolization to evaluate the responsible vessels. NIHSS was used to assess the neurological function at admission and 72 h after stent embolization.【Results】A total of 34 patients with indication of stent thrombus removal were selected by multi-mode CT examination from 62 patients. Re-examination of multi-mode CT after stent thrombus removal showed that 30 of the 34 cases(30/34,the successful rate was 88.2%)gained success in vascular recanalization. Before the stent thrombus removal of the 34 patients,CTP imaging showed ischemic penumbra(IP),and there was significant decrease in cerebral blood flow(CBF)and slight decrease in cerebral blood volume(CBV),significantly prolonged peak time (TTP) and mean transit time (MTT) compared with the contralateral image area. The difference is statistically significant(P < 0.01). After the stent thrombus removal,the relative cerebral blood flow(rCBF)and relative cerebral blood volume(rCBV)were elevated,the relative peak time(rTTP)and relative mean transit time(rMTT)were shortened. The difference is statistically significant(P < 0.01). Compared with admission,there is significant statistical difference in the NIHSS score of patients 72 h after operation(P < 0.01).【Conclusion】Multi-model CT has guiding effect and important evaluation value in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke patients with Solitaire stent thrombolysis.
