ObjectiveTo evaluate clinical efficacy of the modified Sugiura procedure with cardia transection in treatment of recurrent portal hypertension with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
MethodsFrom January 2007 to January 2015, there were 28 cases of recurrent portal hypertension with upper gastrointestinal bleeding were treated by the modified Sugiura procedure with cardia transection in The Second People's Hospital of Yichang and The Zigui County People's Hospital, collecting the clinical data of them and then summarizing the therapeutic effect.
ResultsAll cases underwent surgery successfully with no operative death. The operative time was 120-300 minutes with an average of 160 minutes. About surgical blood loss was 100-500 mL, with an average of 210 mL. Two cases suffered from postoperative gastrointestinal bleeding, 6 cases suffered from postoperative gastric dysfunction, and no one suffered from anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, and portal vein thrombosis. Three cases died in reason of liver failure and hepatic coma. There were 24 cases were followed up for 6-60 months, with the median of 33 months. No recurrence of gastrointestinal bleeding happened during the follow-up period. Sixteen cases underwent gastroscopy in 6 months after surgery, according to the results, the clinical effect was fine. For grade of varicose veinsm, there were 14 cases of grade GⅠ and 2 cases of grade GⅡ. For shape of varicose veins, there were 11 cases of grade F1 and 5 cases of grade F2.
ConclusionThe modified Sugiura procedure with cardia transection is a safe and thorough operation for recurrent portal hypertension with bleeding.
Objective To evaluate the effects of combined splenorenal shunt with portoazygos devascularization for portal hypertension. MethodsA retrospective analysis of the clinical data of combined splenorenal shunt with portoazygos devascularization for portal hypertension in 58 cases was made. They were 41 male, 17 female and average age was 42.5 and posthepatitic liver cirrhosis in 51 cases, schistosomiasis cirrhosis in 7 cases, and Child A in 26 cases, B in 28, C in 4. There was selective operation in 39 cases (Child A 20, Child B 18, Child C 1), early operation in 10 (Child A 3, Child B 6, Child C 1) and emergency operation in 9 (Child A 3, Child B 4, Child C 2).ResultsAll but two (3.4%) Child C cases died after emergency operation, the others recovered. Esophagus varicoses disappeared or had a great improvement in all cases. There were liver function damage with different degree in 19 cases and subdiaphramatic effusion or infection or pleural effusion in 23 and all were cured by conservative therapy. Followed up for 5-10 years in 48 cases, there were rebleeding in 2 cases (3.5%) and postmeal encephalopathy in 2 (3.5%).ConclusionCombined splenorenal shunt and portoazygos devascularization are the first choice for portal hypertension at present.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to study the effect of splenopneumopexy for patients with portal hypertension in children. METHODS From March 1993 to April 1998, splenopneumopexy was performed on six children with portal hypertension. Doppler ultrasound and radionuclide were used to demonstrate the portopulmonary shunt after operation. RESULTS The bleeding from the esophageal varices was controlled and the esophageal varices were eliminated gradually. The symptoms pertaining to hypertension were disappeared. The patency of the shunt was maintained without the formation of thrombosis. No pulmonary complication was observed. CONCLUSION The results indicated that splenopneumopexy was a safe and effective procedure for patients with portal hypertension in children.
Abstract： Right ventricular dysfunction or right heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome and often leads to a poor prognosis and high mortality. In order to detect right ventricular dysfunction at an early stage, provide a therapy guidance and evaluate treatment outcomes， right ventricular function evaluation has aroused more and more concern in clinical physicians. With the advantages of being non-invasive， accuracy and repetitiveness， echocardiography is used extensively in the assessment of heart function. In this review， we focus on how to use echocardiography to evaluate right ventricular function easily, efficiently， accurately and sensitively， and provide a good foundation for its further clinical application.

Objective
To analyse the changes of nitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase in rat retina under acute high ocular pressure and study the effect of nitric oxide in rat retinal damage under hypertension.
Methods
Sixty Wistar rats were divided randomly into five groups:Ocular hypertension 30 min,60 min,90 min and 12 h,24 h after reperfusion．Elevation of the ocular pressure in the anterior chamber of the rat eye ca used retina ischemic damage．The changes of retinal nitric oxide content were ob served indirectly by measuring NO2－/NO3－ content in retina.The distribution and changes of neuronal constitutive nitric oxide synthase (ncNOS)were studied by immunocytochemical localization of ncNOS.
Results
ncNOS positive neurons were distributed in the inner nuclear layer (INL),ganglion cell layer (GCL) and the inner plexiform layer of the normal and ischemic rat retina.During acute high IOP 30 min,60 min and 90 min,NO content decreased gradually and ncNOS immune activity weakens.During reperfusion,NO content increased remarkably (Plt;0.05) as compared with the groups of hypertension 90 min and decreased remarkably as compared with the normal rat retina.But ncNOS positive neurons continue to decrease compared with the groups of hypertension 90 min.
Conclusion
NO participates the rat retinal injury by acute elevated intraocular pressure, and nitric oxide synthetized by ncNOS may play an important role in protecting the retina from ischemic and post-ischemic injury.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH), characterized by diverse etiologies and intricate pathological mechanisms, is a complex cardiopulmonary vascular disorder featuring high morbidity and mortality. Percutaneous pulmonary artery denervation (PADN) represents an emerging interventional treatment method, which shows good prospects in the clinical practice of PH. The PADN has attained preliminary achievements in terms of safety and efficacy. Nevertheless, its long-term prognosis, the characteristics of the appropriate patient populations, and the optimization strategies combined with targeted pharmacotherapy remain to be further explored. This article reviews the current clinical applications of PADN as well as the challenges it confronts.

Objective To analyze the protective effects of heat-shock response on the retinae of the rats after retinal ischemic reperfusion injury.Method Twenty Wistar rats (20 eyes) were divided into 4 groups: intracameral perfusion group (group P), intracameral perfusion after quercetin injection group (group P+Q), intracameral perfusion after heat shock group (group P+H), and in tracameral perfusion after quercetin injection and heat shock group (group P+Q+H ). According to the standard program established by International Society for Clinical Visual Electrophysiology, we recorded the results of the dark-adapted electroretinogram (D-ERG ),oscillatory potentials (OPs),and light-adapted ERG (L-ERG) of the rats with intraocular hypertension after induced by heat shock response. The expressions of HSP 70 of the rats in all groups were observed by Western blotting.Results The expression of HSP 70 of the rats in group P+H was the highest in all groups, but the expressions of HSP70 in group P+Q and P+Q+H were inhibited significantly. The amplitudes of a and b wave of ERG and O2 wave of OPs decreased, and the delitescence of them were delayed significantly in rats after intracameral perfusion. The amplitude of b wave of D-ERG and O2 wave of OPs in group P+H were higher than which in group P. Zero hour after perfusion, the amplitudes of all waves in group P+H increased significantly (Plt;0.05). Twenty-four hours after perfusion, the retinal functional resumption of the rats in group P+H was better than which in group P. In group P+Q and P+Q+H, the delitescences of all waves of ERG and O2 wave of OPs were the longest and the amplitudes were the lowest, and some waves even disappeared.Conclusions The heat-shock response may improve the recovery ability of the retinal cells after injury of ischemic reperfusion.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2003，19：117-120)
