Tissue samples of intestine were taken for histological analysis.RESULTS One hour gut ischemia followed by reperfusion injuries resulted in a significant elevation in plasma D( - )lactate and LPS levels, and there was a significant correlation between the plasma D( - )-lactate and LPS (r =0.719, P<0.05). The plasma concentrations of D(-)lactate and LPS increased significantly at 6 h postburn,and there was also a remarkable correlation between them (r = 0.877, P < 0.01). D ( - )-lactate and LPS levels elevated significantly at 2 h after ANP, with a similar significant correlation between the two levels (r-0.798,P < 0.01 ). The desquamation of intestine villi and infiltration of inflammatory cells in the lamina propria were observed in all groups.CONCLUSION The changes of plasma D( - )-lactate levels in systemic blood paralleled with LPS levels in the portal vein blood. The measurement of plasma D (-)-lactate level may be a useful marker to assess the intestinal injury and to monitor an increase of intestinal permeability and endotoxemia following severe injuries in early stage.展开更多

Methods Wistar rats were divided into: model group, vehicle group, administration groups(low-dose, middle- dose and high-dose group), positive control and normal control. Deep Ⅱ° burn rat model was used and the animals were treated (2/d), respectively. In order to assess the wound healing effect, HE staining was conducted. Immuno- histochemical detection for EGF, VEGF and CD34 were performed. ELISA detection for EGF, VEGF, p38 and IL-1β were carried out in serum. Results According to HE staining, administration groups could reduce conspicuously wound scabby time, accelerate wound healing, promote the hyperplasia of sebaceous glands and hair follicles, de- crease the inflammatory cells and relieve swelling in different degree. The expression of EGF and CD34 in burning tissue increased remarkably in 7th day from immunohistochemical assessment. Serum EGF expression went up con- spicuously (P 〈 0. 01 ), but p38 and IL-1β levels were dramatically lower compared to the model groups. Conclusions OFBGC could promote the wound healing in deep Ⅱ° burn rats. The mechanism may be related, at least in part, to increasing the biosynthesis and release of EGF and CD34 in burning tissue, decreasing serum p38 and IL-1β levels.展开更多

The patient developed anuria 48 hours after injury. Early excision of burn eschars and hemodialysis were carried out. The patient survived after a series of comprehensive treatments, including allografting and autografting. In patients burned by hot chromic acid, excision of affected skin down to the muscle fascia should be carried out as soon as possible after injury. Dialysis to remove circulating chromium in the first 24 hours after injury is also recommended.展开更多
