ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of dexmedetomidine on the neurological function and mast cells activation in the mouse with intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH).Methods The mouse was intraperitoneal-ly injected with dexmedetomidine at 30 min before intracerebral hemorrhage.After the preparation of intrace-rebral hemorrhage model,the neurological function,brain water content,number of mast cells around hemato-ma and expression levels of tryptase,IL-1β,TNF-α were detected.Results Compared with the control group,the neurological function score in the intracerebral hemorrhage group was significantly elevated(P<0.05),the brain water content was significantly increased(P<0.05),the mast cells number was significantly in-creased(P<0.05),and the tryptase,IL-1β and TNF-α expression levels were sinificantly increased(P<0.05);while the neurological function score in the dexmedetomidine group was significantly decreased(P<0.05),the brain water content was significantly decreased(P<0.05),the number of mast cells was signifi-cantly reduced and the tryptase,IL-1β and TNF-α expression levels were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine could inhibit the activation of mast cells around hematoma and reduce the dam-age of neurological function after mouse intracerebral hemorrhage.
ABSTRACT
During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effects and mechanism of ziyuglycoside Ⅰ on acute lung injury in sepsis rats based on network pharmacology, and conduct experimental verification. METHODS The network pharmacology was used to predict the potential target of ziyuglycoside Ⅰ in the treatment of acute lung injury following sepsis. The rat model of sepsis was reproduced by cecum ligation and puncture for experimental verification. Totally 192 SD rats were randomly divided into the sham operation group (Sham group), sepsis group (Sep group), conventional therapy group (CT group) and ziyuglycoside Ⅰ group (Zg Ⅰ group), respectively. Sham group and Sep group were given sterile normal saline, and CT group and ZgⅠ group were given relevant volume of Ringer’s solution and ziyuglycoside Ⅰ. The arterial blood gas, serum inflammatory factors, lung wet/dry mass ratio, pathological changes of lung tissue, pulmonary vascular permeability, the expressions of pulmonary vein tight junction protein 1 (ZO-1) and vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin) protein and 72-hour survival were observed in each group. RESULTS Results of network pharmacology showed that there were 47 potential targets of ziyuglycoside Ⅰ in the treatment of sepsis. The results of gene ontology function enrichment analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway enrichment analysis showed that the mechanism could 598486924@qq.com be correlated with biological processes such as positive regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolism, wound healing, regulation of endothelial cell proliferation, cell activation, blood vessel development, response to oxidative stress, etc., and with signaling pathway such as apoptosis, tight junction, HIF-1 signaling pathway, etc. The results of experimental verification showed that compared with Sham group, pH value and the level of partial arterial oxygen pressure were decreased significantly in Sep group (P<0.05), while the level of partial pressure of carbon dioxide, serum levels of tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin 6 were increased significantly (P<0.05); the ratio of lung wet/dry mass was increased significantly (P<0.05); the protein expressions of ZO-1 and VE-cadherin were decreased significantly (P<0.05); 72 h survival rate decreased,the survival time was significantly shortened (P<0.05); the results of pathological observation of lung tissue showed that the rats’ alveoli were extensively ruptured, the alveolar wall was thickened and accompanied with edema, and there was obvious inflammatory cell infiltration; the results of pulmonary vascular permeability observation showed that the lung surface of rats was dark, with a large amount of Evans blue exudation, and the left lower lung was obviously dark blue. Compared with Sep group, the levels of above indexes almost were reversed significantly in CT group and ZgⅠ group (P<0.05); the lung histopathology and pulmonary vascular permeability were significantly improved, and the recovery degree of ZgⅠ group was greater than that of CT group, which was close to the results of Sham group. CONCLUSIONS Ziyuglycoside Ⅰ can significantly reduce inflammatory reaction and acute lung injury in septic rats, which is related to vascular function and tight junction signal pathway.
ABSTRACT
A novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) epidemic has occurred in Wuhan, Hubei Province since December 2019, caused by a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) never been seen previously in human. China has imposed the strictest quarantine and closed management measures in history to control the spreading of the disease. However, severe trauma can still occur in the NCP patients. In order to standardize the emergency treatment and the infection prevention and control of severe trauma patients with hidden infection, suspected or confirmed infection of 2019-nCoV, Trauma Surgery Branch of Chinese Medical Doctors' Association organized this expert consensus. The consensus illustrated the classification of the NCP patients, severe trauma patients in need of emergency surgery, emergency surgery type, hierarchical protection for medical personnel and treatment places. Meanwhile, the consensus standardized the screening, injury severity evaluation, emergency surgical treatment strategy and postoperative management strategy of severe trauma patients during the epidemic period of NCP, providing a basis for the clinical treatment of such kind of patients.

ABSTRACT
Aim To investigate influence of amitriptyline on glutamate-aspartate transporter(GLAST)in spinal cord of rats after spared nerve injury.Methods 60 male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 15 rats in each:control(A),SNI(B),amitriptyline(C),SNI+amitriptyline(D).Respectively 4 groups were treated with intraperitoneal injections of 0.2 ml saline(A and B),10 mg?kg-1 amitriptyline(C and D),bid.The L3~L6 segments of the spinal cord were isolated in 1,3 and 5 days after surgery.Expression of GLAST was determined by western blot and semiquantitative RT-PCR.Also,changes of mechanical withdrawal threshold(MWT)were measured.Results Compared to control,a markedly decreased MWT was showed in group B and the expression of GLAST at both protein and mRNA level increased firstly and decreased later.There were no changes of MWT in group C,but the expression of GLAST increased gradually.Rat MWT in group D did not change any more at the third days after surgery.In addition,the expression of GLAST in group D was higher than control group and kept stable.Conclusions Amitriptyline could increase the expression of GLAST,which may be one of its mechanisms in the treatment of neuropathic pain.
