Microcirculatory disturbance in AP has attracted widespread attention. In order to provide a theoretical basis for clinical therapy of AP, it is very important to explore the effect of inflammatory mediators on microcirculatory disturbance in this disease. DATA SOURCES: In this review, the impact of inflammatory mediators on microcirculatory disturbance in AP was reviewed according to the literature, especially the articles indexed in PubMed and books published in China and reports from websites. RESULTS: At present, inflammatory mediation and microcirculatory disturbance are the two major hypotheses to explain the development of AP. Although experimental studies have shown that inflammatory mediators induce or aggravate microcirculatory disturbance, the clinical application of these findings is still difficult because the inflammatory mediators are diverse and their research is not comprehensive and thorough. CONCLUSION: It is very important to explore the influence of inflammatory mediators on microcirculatory disturbance in AP.展开更多

METHODS: One hundred and twenty patients with SAP were enrolled at the Pancreatic Disease Institute between January 2007 and March 2010. The patients were randomly treated with normal saline (NS group), combination of normal saline and hydroxyethyl starch (HES) (SH group), combination of normal saline, hydroxyethyl starch and glutamine (SHG group) in resuscitation. The ratio of normal saline to HES in the SH and SHG groups was 3:1. The glutamine (20% glutamine dipeptide, 100 mL/d) was supplemented into the resuscitation liquid in the SHG group. Complications and outcomes including respiratory and abdominal infection, sepsis, abdominal hemorrhage, intra-abdominal hypertension, abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), renal failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), operation intervention, length of intensive care unit stay, length of hospital stay, and mortality at 60 d were compared. Moreover, blood oxygen saturation (SpO 2 ), gastric intramucosal pH value (pHi), intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), inflammation cytokines, urine lactulose/mannitol (L/M) ratio, and serum endotoxin were investigated to evaluate the inflammatory reaction and gut barrier. RESULTS: Compared to the NS group, patients in the SH and SHG groups accessed the endpoint more quickly (3.9 ± 0.23 d and 4.1 ± 0.21 d vs 5.8 ± 0.25 d, P < 0.05) with less fluid volume (67.26 ± 28.53 mL/kg/d, 61.79 ± 27.61 mL/kg per day vs 85.23 ± 21.27 mL/kg per day, P < 0.05). Compared to the NS group, incidence of renal dysfunction, ARDS, MODS and ACS in the SH and SHG groups was obviously lower. Furthermore, incidence of respiratory and abdominal infection was significantly decreased in the SH and SHG groups, while no significant difference in sepsis was seen. Moreover, less operation time was needed in the SH and SHG group than the NS group, but展开更多

It has a series of pharmacologic mechanisms including reconstructing microcirculation, protecting mitochondrial function, inhibiting oxidative stress, inhibiting neuronal apoptosis, etc. Based on the complex multi-targets of pharmacologic mechanisms of NBP, the clinical application of NBP is increasing and more clinical researches and animal experiments are also focused on NBP. The aim of this review was to comprehensively and systematically summarize the application of NBP on neurologic diseases and briefly summarize its application to non-neurologic diseases. Moreover, recent progress in experimental models of NBP on animals was summarized. Data sources: Literature was collected from PubMed and Wangfang database until November 2018, using the search terms including "3-N-butylphthalide,""microcirculation,""mitochondria,""ischemic stroke,""Alzheimer disease,""vascular dementia,""Parkinson disease,""brain edema,""CO poisoning,""traumatic central nervous system injury,""autoimmune disease,""amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,""seizures,""diabetes,""diabetic cataract," and "atherosclerosis." Study selection: Literature was mainly derived from English articles or articles that could be obtained with English abstracts and partly derived from Chinese articles. Article type was not limited. References were also identified from the bibliographies of identified articles and the authors’ files. Results: NBP has become an important adjunct for ischemic stroke. In vascular dementia, the clinical application of NBP to treat severe cognitive dysfunction syndrome caused by the hypoperfusion of brain tissue during cerebrovascular disease is also increasing. Evidence also suggests that NBP has a therapeutic effect for neurodegenerative diseases. Many animal experiments have found that it can also improve symptoms in other neurologic diseases such as epilepsy, cerebral edema, and decreased cognitive function caused by severe acute carbon展开更多
