Objective To investigate the pathogenesis of acute lung injury in rats induced by intra-peritoneally injection of perforative peritonitis ascitic fluids（PPAF） and the role of L-arginine （L-Arg） in acute lung injury in this model. Methods Perforative peritonitis （PP） models were established in 60 rats and PPAF were collected. Forty-eight rats were randomly divided equally into NS group，PPAF group, and L-Arg group. Rats were randomly subjected to death at 7 h and 12 h. Peripheral blood WBC were counted，levels of NO and malondialdehyde （MDA） in serum were examined. Lung injury score and wet/dry ratio were evaluated， and level of myeloperoxidase （MPO） in lung tissues and lung cell apoptosis were tested. Results WBC count of peripheral blood, levels of NO and MDA in serum， level of MPO in lung tissue, lung injury score， wet/dry ratio， and lung cell apoptosis rate in PPAF group were significantly higher than that in NS group at each time point（P＜0.01）. Level of NO in serum in L-Arg group was higher than that in PPAF group （P＜0.01）， but lower level of MDA in serum， lower level of MPO in lung tissue and lung injury score，lower wet/dry ratio， and lung cell apoptosis rate were observed in L-Arg group（P＜0.05）. In PPAF group and L-Arg group， level of NO in serum， wet/dry ratio, and lung cell apoptosis rate were higher at 12 h than that at 7 h（P=0.000）. Serum NO level was in negative correlation with serum MDA level （r=-0.257，P=0.021）， MPO level in lung tissue（r=-0.444， P=0.011），and lung cell apoptosis（r=-0.351， P =0.010） in PPAF group and L-Arg group， but serum MDA level was in positive correlation with cell apoptosis（r=0.969， P＜0.001） in each group. Conclusions Acute lung injury rats model can be established by intra-peritoneally injection of PPAF. Enhanced oxidizing reaction and cell apoptosis take part in the occurrence of acute lung injury. L-Arg plays a protective role in acute lung injury.
【摘要】 目的 探討結核性腹膜炎的CT診斷價值。 方法 回顧性分析2009年10月-2010年7月22例經手術、病理或抗結核治療確診的結核性腹膜炎CT完整資料。主要觀察:淋巴結、腹水、腹膜、系膜、網膜改變。 結果 淋巴結腫大12例，增強后呈“環狀”強化改變。腹腔積液15例，少～中量12例，聚集在腸系膜根部、結腸旁溝及盆腔較多，CT值20～28HU。腹膜增厚16例，其中14例均勻光滑增厚，10例明顯強化；大網膜增厚15例，其中餅狀增厚2例、污垢樣增厚9例、結節樣4例。腸系膜增厚18例，3例腸袢聚集、粘連。伴有其他臟器結核13例。 結論 CT對診斷和鑒別診斷結核性腹膜炎具有較大的臨床價值，結合臨床多數結核性腹膜炎可作出正確診斷。【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of CT scan for tuberculotic peritonitis. Methods The complete CT image data of 22 patients with tuberculotic peritonitis confirmed by surgical, pathologically, or therapeutic procedures from October 2009 to July 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. The changes of lymph nodes, ascites, thickened peritoneum, mesentery and greater omentum were observed. Results In 22 patients, enlargement and rim enhancement of lymph nodes were found in 12; ascites with CT value of 20-28 HU was in 15, of whom 12 had small or middle amount of effusion which located in mesentery or abdominal cavity; thickened parietal peritoneum was in 16, including smooth peritoneum in 14 and evident enhancement in 10; thickened greater omeutum was in 15, including cake-like thickening in 2, filth-like thickening in 9 and tuber-like thickening in 4; thickened mesentery was in 18, including intestinal loop adhesion in 3.A total of 13 patients were combined with other tuberculosis. Conclusion CT scan is very important in diagnosing and differentially diagnosing tuberculous perinitis.
Objective
To study the effects of different carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum pressure and time on abdominal cavity infection bacteria of peritonitis in rats, including bacteria growth and bacterial translocation.
Methods
Sixty Sprague Dawley rats were injected with Eseherichia coli into the abdominal cavity to establish models of intra-abdominal infection. To give 3 types of pneumoperitoneum pressure for the experimental group: 15 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) for high pressure group, 5 mm Hg for low pressure group, and blank control group for no-pneumoperitoneum. To give 2 types of experimental period: 1 h and 3 h. These 60 Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided intomoperi 6 groups by random number table. They were treated by different pneumoperitoneum pressure and time. All rats were killed at the end of the carbon-dioxide pneumo-peritoneum experiment. Peritoneal lavage fluids and portal vein blood were taken for microbiological examinations and culture. The endotoxin content in portal vein blood was detected too.
Results
① Bacteria content: bacteria counts of different pneumoperitoneum pressure groups were obviously different (F=9.02, P=0.020), bacteria counts of different experimental period groups were obviously different (F=8.47, P=0.003), the effect of time was different in different pneumoperitoneum pressure groups (F=8.07, P=0.020). ② Bacterial translocation: Bacterial translocation occurred in all 6 groups. Blood culture positive rates were similar between 1 h group and 3 h group at 3 types of pneumoperitoneum pressure groups (P>0.05). The positive rate of blood culture in high pneumoperitoneum group was significantly higher compared with the no-pneumoperitoneum group (P<0.05). ③ The endotoxin content: the endotoxin content of different pneumoperitoneum pressure groups were obviously different (F=14.70, P<0.01), the endotoxin content in plasma increased obviously in high pressure group compared with low pressure group (P=0.018) and no-pneumoperitoneum group (P<0.01), the endotoxin content in plasma increased obviously in low pressure group compared with no-pneumoperitoneum group (P=0.005). The endotoxin content of different experimental period groups were obviously different (F=148.90, P<0.01), the endotoxin content in plasma increased obviously in 3 h group compared with 1 h group. There were no significant difference in the effect of time with different pneumoperitoneum pressure groups (F=0.14, P=0.874).
Conclusion
CO2pneumoperitoneum promoted intestinal bacterial endotoxin and bacterial translocation in peritonitis of rats, which increased with the pressure and time.
