Objective Recently, The incidence of fatty liver is increasing , with the improvement of people′s living standard. We here established an available model with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in rabbits and then studied its sonographic findings . Methods Forty male Japanese rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups:control group and model group.The rabbits in model group were fed with high-fat diet for the establishment of the model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.The rabbits in control group were fed with standard diet. At the baseline, 12th, 16thand 20th week , all the livers in 2 groups were scanned by ultrasonography, and at the end of 20 th week, all the rabbits in 2 groups were killed for pathological analysis. Results Both the ultrasonography and in pathology demonstrated the successful establishment of non-alcoholic fatty liver models.The result of study demonstrated significant differences (P<0.05).At the 12th week, all of the 19 livers in model group showed fatty livers in sonography:8 low-, 9 middle-and 2 high-grade.The degree of steatosis aggravated pro-gressively with modeling time.Most of livers showed middle-grade fatty at the 16th week, and at the 20th week, they all demonstrated middle-or high-grade fatty liver:10 middle-and 9 high-grade, furthermore, ascites occurred in 3 cases.The pathological results were consistent with the findings of sonography, and fibrosis were observed in pathology. Conclusion Animal model with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in rabbits can be established by high-fat diet.Besides, ultrasonography is a good method to monitor the establishment of the model .

Objective To study the rule of lower-cervical lymphatic metastasis in thoracic esophageal carcinoma,and make evaluation about the reasonable extent of lymphadenectomy. Methods One hundred and eight cases of thoracic esophageal carcinoma through chromatic ultrasound and CT before operation were divided into different groups selectively,while three fields lymphadenectomy (3-FL) was adopted in 31 cases,and two fields lymphadenctomy (2-FL) was adopted in 77 cases. Results The rate of lower-cervical lymphatic metastasis was 87.1%(27/31) through chromatic ultrasound and CT,and that was 25.0%(27/108) before the two up-mentioned examinations (P<0.05). In all cases, the rate of lower-cervical lymphatic metastasis in the upper pectoral esophageal carcinoma was 47.6% (10/21),that in the middle pectoral esophageal carcinoma was 21.3%(13161),and that in the middle and lower pectoral esophageal carcinoma was 19.5%(17187) ,P<0.05. Through 3-FL, the rate of lower--cervical lymphatic metastasis in the upper pectoral esophageal eareinoma was 57.1%(12/21), that in the middle pectoral esophageal carcinoma was 23.0%(14/61), and that in the middle and lower pectoral esophageal carcinoma was 21.8%(19/87), P<0.05. Conclusions The regionality metastasis is the main fashion in thoracic esophageal carcinoma with lower-cervical lymphatic metastasis. It is feasible to judge lower-cervical lymphatic metastasis through chromatic ultrasound and CT before operation.The 3-FL of the upper pectoral esophageal carcinoma is recommended. The 3-FL is selectable in the middle and lower pectoral esophageal carcinoma according to the result of chromatic ultrasound and CT.
RÉSUMÉ
To test the hypothesis that the controlled reperfusion of warm blood cardioplegiacontaining mannitol would result in more effectively improved recovery of myocardial function by prevent-ing or reducing a potentially harmful component of reperfusion. Methods: Thirty-two cats were divided in-to four groups. Group Ⅰwas not subjected to ischemia or reperfusion injury. Group Ⅱ was subjected to60 min hypothermic ischemia. Group Ⅲwas subjected to 60 min hypothermic ischemia and 60 min reperfu-sion. Group Ⅳ was controlled reperfusion with warm blood cardioplegia containing mannitol. Results:Myocardial functlon was significantly depressed after 60 min reperfusion- Increased myocardial water con-tent and low ATP c0ntent were observed also. Controlled reperfusion with warm bl0od cardioplegia con-taining mannitol was helpful to improve the recovery of myocardial function and ATP content, and to re-duce the myocardial water content. Conclusion: These results indicate that controlled reperfusion after is-chemia provides benefit in avoiding myocardium from reperfusion injury.
