ABSTRACT
Chest trauma is one of the most common injuries. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) as a common complication of chest trauma seriously affects the quality of patients′ life and even leads to death. Although there are some consensus and guidelines on the prevention and treatment of VTE at home and abroad, the current literatures lack specificity considering the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of VTE in patients with chest trauma have their own characteristics, especially for those with blunt trauma. Accordingly, China Chest Injury Research Society and editorial board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology organized relevant domestic experts to jointly formulate the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of chest trauma venous thromboembolism associated with chest trauma (2022 version). This consensus provides expert recommendations of different levels as academic guidance in terms of the characteristics, clinical manifestations, risk assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of chest trauma-related VTE, so as to offer a reference for clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is a global epidemic disease caused by hepatitis B virus that can lead to hepatic failure, even liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The occurrence and development of CHB are closely related to the changes in the gut microbiota communities. To explore the relationship between the structure of gut microbiota and liver biochemical indicators, 14 CHB patients (the CHB group) and 11 healthy people (the CN group) were randomly enrolled in this study. Our results demonstrate that CHB caused changes in the gut microbiota communities and biochemical indicators, such as alanine transaminase, total bilirubin and gamma glutamyl transferase. Furthermore, CHB induced imbalance of the gut microbiota. Prevotella, Blautia, Ruminococcus, Eubacterium eligens group, Bacteroides uniformis and Ruminococcus sp. 5_1_39BFAA were associated with the critical biochemical indicators and liver injury, suggesting a new approach to CHB treatment.

Objective:To explore the effect of traditional Chinese medicine fumigation and washing on the clinical indicators of elderly patients with distal radius fractures after small splint fixation.Methods:From November 2015 to November 2018, 180 elderly patients with fracture of the distal radius in Ningbo Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected, and they were divided into control group and observation group according to the random digital table method, with 90 cases in each group.The two groups were given manual reduction and small splint fixation treatment, and the observation group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine fumigation on the basis of the control group therapy.The related inflammatory cytokines in patients plasma and serum viscosity(TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6) were detected, and the clinical curative effect and adverse reactions were observed.Results:Before treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in plasma viscosity and blood inflammatory factors(TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6) between the two groups( t=-0.171, -0.126, 0.483, 0.459, all P>0.05). After treatment, the above indicators in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment(observation group: t=38.970, 14.684, 72.258, 53.612; control group: t=20.098, 19.045, 33.962, 34.822, all P<0.05), which in the observation group were lower than those in the control group ( t=-30.239, -7.043, -31.815, -10.359, all P<0.05). The total effective rate of the observation group was 88.88%(80/90), which was higher than 71.11%(64/90) of the control group, the difference was statistically significant between the two groups(χ2=8.889, P<0.05). Conclusion:For the elderly patients with distal radius fracture, the combination of reduction and small splint fixation and fumigation with traditional Chinese medicine can significantly improve the hemorheology of the patients and reduce the contents of inflammatory factors in the body, with significant efficacy and no adverse reactions, which is worthy of clinical application.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the diagnostic value and the best criteria of multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) of spiral CT in recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph node metastasis. Methods We performed multiplanar reconstruction of the spiral CT data of 138 esophageal carcinoma patients admitted to our hospital between December 2016 and June 2019, including 113 males and 25 females with an average age of 47-85 (63.03±15.58) years. The short and long diameters of recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph nodes were measured respectively, and then ratio of short to long diameter was calculated. The three parameters were contrasted with the pathological results and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for the parameters were drawn. Results Of the 138 patients, 291 left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph nodes were dissected with an average number of 0-14 (2.11±0.41) per patient and the metastasis rate was 16.70%; while 436 right ones were dissected with the average number of 0-17 (3.16±0.45) per patient and the metastasis rate was 21.00%. The total metastasis rate was 29.70%. In the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis, the areas under ROC curve for short and long diameters as well as the ratio of short to long diameter of left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph nodes were 0.808, 0.779, 0.621, respectively, while those for the right ones were 0.865, 0.807, 0.637, respectively. Conclusion The metastasis rate of recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph nodes is high and the short diameter has a higher diagnostic value for recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph node metastasis.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the improvement rate of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection who received entecavir alone or in combination with anluohuaxianwan for 78 weeks.@*Methods@#Patients with chronic HBV infection were randomly treated with entecavir alone or in combination with anluohuaxian for 78 weeks. Ishak fibrosis score was used for blind interpretation of liver biopsy specimens. The improvement in liver fibrosis condition before and after the treatment was compared. Student's t test and non-parametric test (Mann-Whitney U-Test and Kruskal-Wallis test) were used to analyze the measurement data. The categorical variables were analyzed by Chi-square test method and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was used to test bivariate associations.@*Results@#Liver fibrosis improvement rate after 78 weeks of treatment was 36.53% (80/219) and the progression rate was 23.29% (51/219). The improvement of liver fibrosis was associated to the degree of baseline fibrosis and treatment methods (P < 0.05). The improvement rate of hepatic fibrosis in patients treated with anluohuaxianwan combined with entecavir at baseline F < 3 (54.74%, 52/95) was significantly higher than that in patients treated only with entecavir (33.33%, 16/48), P = 0.016 and the progression rate of hepatic fibrosis (13.68%, 13/95) was lower than that in patients treated alone (18.75%, 9/48), P = 0.466. In patients with baseline F < 3, the proportion of patients with improved and stable liver fibrosis in the combined treatment group (68.1%, 32/47) was higher than that in the treatment group alone (51.7%, 15/29).@*Conclusion@#Combined anluohuaxianwan and entecavir treatment can significantly improve the improvement rate of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Furthermore, it has the tendency to improve the stability rate and reduce the rate of progression of liver fibrosis.

ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of ulinastatin (UTI) on blood gas analysis in rabbits with acute lung injury (ALI) after an explosion.Methods A total of 24 healthy New Zealand white rabbits were made to be ALI models by an explosion at a distance of 11 cm.The rabbits met the criteria of ALI,and were randomly (random number) divided into A and B groups.In group B,rabbits received UTI injected at 0.5 h,6 h,12 h,24 h after modeling.In group A,an equal volume of saline was given to rabbits instead at the same intervals after modeling.Arterial blood pH,carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2) and partial pressure of blood oxygen (PaO2) were determined by a portable blood gas analyzer before modeling and at given intervals after modeling.All rabbits were sacrificed after 48 h later.The pathological changes of lung tissue were observed with naked eye and extent of lung injury with HE staining.Results Compared with group A,pulmonary edema and infiltration of inflammatory cells in the lungs of rabbits in group B were less significant.The blood gas analysis showed there were significant difference in pH at 24 h after injury between group A (7.24 ± 0.07) and group B (7.35 ± 0.06),P ＜ 0.05.There was significant difference in PaO2 at 24 h after injury between group A (50.5 ± 9.9) mmHg and group B (78.1 ± 8.4) mmHg,P ＜ 0.05.And there was significant difference in PaCO2 at 24 h after injury between group A (52.4 ± 5.5) mmHg and group B (42.8 ± 4.5) mmHg,P ＜ 0.05.Conclusion UTI can significantly reduce acidosis,PaCO2 and increase PaO2 in rabbits with ALI following a blast,improving oxygenation and mitigating lung histopathological changes.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels (hUC-MSCs) can obviously relieve liver cirrhosis, and thereby repair liver injury. However, the molecular mechanism of hUC-MSCs therapy for liver cirrhosis is limited at present, and especialy the non-coding RNA regulation of hepatic gene changes has not been detailed. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the changes of microRNA after hUC-MSCs therapy in rats with liver cirrhosis. METHODS:Liver cirrhosis models were established in rats using carbon tetrachloride subcutaneous injection plus oral administration of alcohol. At 8 weeks after modeling, hUC-MSCs were injectedvia the tail vein once a week for 4 consecutive weeks. At 1 week after the last injection, rat liver tissues were colected for paraffin embedding. Liver RNA was extracted for gene chip analysis. Blood samples were colected and analyzed using an automatic biochemical analyzer to detect the changes of liver function. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase were improved significantly after hUC-MSCs therapy. Fat lesions and necrosis of hepatocytes were significantly reduced. MicroRNA expression microarray hybridization analysis and PCR results showed that rno-miR-369-5p, rno-miR-3584-5p and rno-miR-153* were down-regulated during modeling and increased after hUC-MSCs therapy. And rno-miR-93, rno-miR-199a-3p, rno-miR-195, rno-let-7a and rno-miR-19a were firstly up-regulated in the process of modeling and then down-regulated obviously after hUC-MSCs therapy. These results suggest that hUC-MSCs may reverse liver cirrhosis and liver cel damage through up-regulation of rno-miR-369-5p, rno-miR-3584-5p and rno-miR-153*, and down-regulation of rno-miR-93, rno-miR-199a-3p, rno-miR-195, rno-let-7a and rno-miR-19a.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the therapeutic effect of ulinastatin combined with dexamethasone on blast-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in rabbits.Methods Thirty-eight New Zealand white rabbits with blast-induced ALI were divided into four groups according to the random number table:injury group (n =8),treatment group Ⅰ (dexamethasone alone,n =10),treatment group Ⅱ (ulinastatin alone,n =10),combination therapy group (dexamethasone + ulinastatin,n =10).In addition,8 uninjured rabbits were randomly selected as control group.Treatment groups were given relevant medication by intramuscular injection at 0.5,12,24,36 and 48 hours after successful modeling.Injury group and control group were given equal volume of isotonic saline at the same time.Parameters of respiratory rate,oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2),TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8 and neutrophil elastase (NE)were detected before and afterfirst treatment at 6,24,48 and 72 hours.All rabbits were sacrificed after 72 hoars to detect TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8 and NE contents in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and to measure wet to dry lung weight ratio.HE staining was performed to observe pathological changes of lung tissues Results In contrast,respiratory rate was high in injury group at each time point,which increased to the peak (75.0 ± 7.4) times/min at 6 hours far higher than (33.0 ± 4.5) times/min in control group (P ＜0.01).Wet to dry lung weight ratio and TNF-α,IL-6 as well as IL-8 contents of the peripheral blood and BAI.F in injury group were significantly higher than those in control group (P ＜0.01).PaO2/ FiO2 in injury group was decreased to the lowest level of (180.5 ± 12.6)mmHg at 72 hours far lower than (403.7-8.0)mmHg in control group (P ＜0.01).While improvements were observed in treatment groups with respect to these indicators,and significantly much better results were detected in combination therapy group rather than in treatment groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Ulinastatin combined with dexamethasone is an effective therapy on blast-induced ALI in rabbits,and the effect is significantly better than that with single use of uliinastatin or dexamethasone.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the relationship between the expression of hepatitis B virus (HBV) core antigen and viral replication and liver tissue inflammation damage in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, and to analyze the relationship of core antigen expression differences with clinical and pathological features in e antigen-negative and e antigen-positive CHB patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Sixty-three treatment-naive patients diagnosed with CHB who underwent liver biopsy were included in this retrospective analysis. Liver pathology was assessed, and the karyotype, pulp type, and pulp karyotype were determined. Core and e antigen expression was quantitatively determined by automated immunoassay. Blood samples were used to determine the amount of peripheral lymphocytes or monocytes and HBV DNA load. Results The median titer of HBV DNA was significantly higher in the CHB patients with e antigen positivity (n = 48) than those with e antigen negativity (n = 15) (5.4 * 106 copies/ml vs. 5.4 * 104 copies/ml, P = 0.003). The core antigen positive expression rate was significantly higher in the e antigen-positive CHB patients than in the e antigen-negative CHB patients (80.33% vs. 53.33%, P = 0.042). For the e antigen-positive CHB patients, the HBV DNA titer in karyotype core antigen cases was higher than that in the pulp karyotype mixed-type cases (P = 0.008) and in the negative cases (P = 0.013); in addition, the karyotype patients showed higher titer than the plasma patients (P = 0.019). Also for the e antigen-positive CHB patients, the HBV DNA titer was positively correlated with the rank level of pulp karyotype in core antigen expression (r = 0.589, P = 0.003) but negatively correlated with lobular inflammation, interface inflammation, and fibrosis level (r = -0.552, P = 0.000; r = -0.381, P = 0.008; r = -0.555, P = 0.000); in addition, the level of peripheral blood lymphocytes was negatively correlated with lobular inflammation and fibrosis level (r = -0.361, P = 0.012; r = -0.356, P = 0.013). For the e antigen-negative CHB patients, the level of peripheral blood lymphocytes was negatively correlated with lobular inflammation and interface inflammation (r = -0.702, P = 0.004; r = -0.578, P = 0.024), while the level of peripheral blood mononuclear cells was negatively correlated with lobular inflammation, interface inflammation, and fibrosis level (r = -0.682, P = 0.005; r = -0.620, P = 0.014; r = -0.527, P = 0.044); in addition, age positively correlated with interface inflammation (r = 0.690, P = 0.004).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The pulp karyotype mixed-type of core antigen expression may reflect the level of HBV replication. Negative expression of core antigen may be associated with variation in pre-C or C zone. The monocyte-macrophage system may be involved in the pathogenesis of e antigen-negative CHB, while the mechanism of immune escape may play an important role in increasing HBV DNA titer in an e-antigen-negative CHB condition.</p>

ABSTRACT
0.05).Conclusions Plasma fibrinogen level is affected by -148C/T polymorphism of ?-fibrinogen gene. High plasma fibrinogen level is a risk factor for ACI in Chinese young adults. With other risk factors and environmental factors, T allele increases plasma fibrinogen level and may be a heritable risk factor for ACI in Chinese young adults.
