The Rh(D) negative patients received the transfusion of CSRBC or whole blood stored at -80 ℃ for 180 to 360 days. The changes in the indexes, such as blood TB, DB, K +, Na +, BUN, Cr, urine protein (URPO), UOB, Hb, HCT, serum total protein, relative to hemolytic reaction and blood volume before and after transfusion were observed. The results showed that after transfusion of CSRBC or whole blood 27 cases were negative for urine protein and UOB, and the levels of BUN and Cr were normal (P>0.05). Blood TB, DB, Hb, and HCT were increased, while pH, blood K + and blood Na + was normal with the difference being not significant before and after operation (P>0.05). Plasma protein was decreased, but there was no significant difference before and after operation (P>0.05). It was suggested that CSRBC or whole blood at -80 ℃ could be safely infused to the Rh(D) negative patients without side effects during the surgical operation.展开更多

Experiments were conducted on blood coagulation in vitro, the influence of plasma on tissue in vivo, and the pilot application of rat hepatectomy. Experimental results show that the cold plasma can lead to rapid blood coagulation. Compared with the control sample, the plasma-induced agglomerated layer of blood is thicker and denser, and is mostly composed of broken platelets. When the surface of the liver was treated by plasma, the influence of the plasma can penetrate into the liver to a depth of about 500 μm. During the rat hepatectomy, cold plasma was proved to be effective for stanching bleeding on incision. No obvious bleeding was found in the abdominal cavities of all six rats 48 h after the hepatectomy. This implies that cold plasma can be an effective modality to control bleeding during surgical operation.展开更多

Drugs administered 2.5 g a dose. Analysis was before and after 1 hour dosage. The warm and cold sense threshold in the thenar of the non-handedness site of these subjects was measured using a thermostimulator (Intercross-200, Intercross Co., Tokyo, Japan). The peripheral blood flow in the finger of the non-handedness site of these subjects was measured using a full-field laser perfusion imager (FLPI, Moor Instruments Ltd., England). Control: The vehicle had no significant effect on the warm sense threshold, cold sense threshold and the peripheral blood flow. TJ-107: The warm sense threshold and cold sense threshold were significantly decreased, and the reaction latency of cold sense was significantly shortening. The peripheral blood flow was significantly increased second and third finger at 115.6%, 119.3%, respectively. TJ-38: The cold sense threshold and the reaction latency of cold sense were significantly increased. The peripheral blood flow was significantly increased second and third finger with 114.3%, 112.8%, respectively. These results suggest that TJ-107 and TJ-38 have effects on the changed warm sense threshold, cold sense threshold and increased peripheral blood flow.展开更多

However, existing data are based on subjective evaluations with no scientific basis about the effects on peripheral coldness. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effectiveness of NKCP®for peripheral coldness by measuring changes in blood flow using a laser doppler rheometer and biochemical indices. Patients and Methods: This was a double-blind, randomized, controlled study of individuals aged 30 - 70 years who complained of subjective symptoms of cold hands and feet. They were randomly divided into the NKCP®group and the placebo group to receive NKCP®250 mg once daily and dextrin 250 mg as placebo once daily, respectively. The experiment lasted 8 weeks, with an intervention period of 4 weeks and a washout period of 4 weeks. Results: One-month intake of NKCP®significantly increased blood flow rate for 1 min between 4 and 5 minutes after the end of cold loading compared to that before feeding (p = 0.038). Also, analysis of the 5-minute blood flow rate before and after 4 weeks of feeding showed a significant improvement in the NKCP®group (p = 0.007), although there was no significant difference in the placebo group (p = 0.215). Furthermore, the 5-minute blood flow at 4 weeks after the end of feeding was significantly improved compared to that before feeding in the NKCP®group (p = 0.049). Therefore, the effect continued for at least 1 month after discontinuation of administration. Conclusions: It is possible that NKCP®intake effectively improves blood flow in subjects with peripheral coldness. Therefore, continuous intake of NKCP®is expected to reduce the symptoms of peripheral coldness. In the future, it needs to investigate whether the effect of increasing blood flow after ingestion of NKCP®is effective in improving the symptoms of peripheral coldness.展开更多

Myocardial content of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), recovery of the left ventricular function, release of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and ultrastructure of myocardium were assessed before and after ischemia. The results showed that the hearts preserved with warm blood cardioplegic induction and terminal perfusion had significantly higher levels of ATP,better recovery of cardiac function and lower releases of CPK than those receiving cold blood cardioplegia alone, with myocardial tissue being of generally normal structure. These findings suggest that warm induction and terminal perfusion of blood cardioplegic solution can accelerate myocardial metabolic and functional recovery, preserve high-energy phosphate, reduce myocardial injury and enhance myocardial protection.展开更多

Glucocorticoids have anti-inflammatory and lipid peroxidation-inhibiting properties. We therefore examined whether dexamethasone, a synthetic glucocorticoid compound, would alleviate early-stage non-freezing cold injury of the sciatic nerve. We established Wistar rat models of non-freezing cold injury by exposing the left sciatic nerve to cold(3–5°C) for 2 hours, then administered dexamethasone(3 mg/kg intraperitoneally) to half of the models. One day after injury, the concentration of Evans blue tracer in the injured sciatic nerve of rats that received dexamethasone was notably lower than that in the injured sciatic nerve of rats that did not receive dexamethasone; neither Evans blue dye nor capillary stenosis was observed in the endoneurium, but myelinated nerve fibers were markedly degenerated in the injured sciatic nerve of animals that received dexamethasone. After dexamethasone administration, however, endoneurial vasculopathy was markedly improved, although damage to the myelinated nerve fiber was not alleviated. These findings suggest that dexamethasone protects the blood-nerve barrier, but its benefit in non-freezing cold injury is limited to the vascular system.展开更多
