Significance of the hepatic mitochondrial redox state in the development of posttraumatic jaundice

The effect of the hepatic energy status on the development of posttraumatic jaundice (PTJ) was studied to clarify the mechanism of PTJ. Fifty-four patients with severe torso injury who were expected to develop PTJ on admission with an average Injury Severity Score of 27 were selected for this study. They were retrospectively divided into three groups according to their maximum bilirubin concentration by day 10: group H, 12 patients with marked elevation of serum bilirubin (>8 g/dl); group L, 23 with mild bilirubinemia (2–8 g/dl); and group N, 19 with no bilirubinemia (<2 g/dl). Group H patients, in whom trauma-related shock was severe and prolonged, developed severe hyperbilirubinemia, and their arterial ketone body ratio (AKBR), which reflects the hepatic mitochondrial redox state and is closely correlated to its energy production, was significantly lower throughout the first week. In contrast, the AKBR increased to an above normal level, indicating enhanced energy production in groups N and L. The serum direct/total bilirubin was also higher in group H. The abnormal hepatic energy metabolism is considered to have reduced the excretion of conjugated bilirubin from the hepatocytes into the bile canaliculi, which is a process that has to proceed against the bilirubin concentration gradient. The subsequent diffusion of the accumulated water-soluble conjugated bilirubin in hepatocytes into the blood is thus considered to be one of the causes of PTJ.

目的　探讨阻塞性黄疸时肾脏自分泌内皮素 (ET)的变化及其与肾功能损害的关系。方法　结扎胆总管(BDL)制备阻塞性黄疸大鼠模型 ,作为实验组 ,对照组鼠仅行假手术。分别于术后 5、1 0及 1 5d ,两组各取 1 0只大鼠检测其肾脏对氨基马尿酸清除率 (CPAH)、菊粉清除率 (CIN)和钠排泄分数 (FENa+) ,并用鲎试剂法测定血浆内毒素 (EX)水平 ,放射免疫法测定肾动、静脉血浆及肾组织中ET 1含量。结果　①实验组术后 5d仅FENa+明显高于对照组 (P<0 .0 1 ) ,术后 1 0d起 ,CPAH、CIN及FENa+呈进行性下降 ,术后 1 5dFENa+已较对照组低 ,与对照组比较差异有显著性 (P<0 .0 1 ) ;②实验组术后血浆EX水平呈进行性升高 ,与对照组比较差异有显著性 (P<0 .0 1 ) ;③实验组术后肾动脉血浆ET 1水平呈持续性降低 ,而肾静脉血浆及肾组织中ET 1含量呈持续性升高 ,与对照组比较差异有显著性 (P<0 .0 1 ) ;④血浆EX水平与肾组织ET 1含量呈正相关 (r =0 .762 4 ,P<0 .0 1 ) ,肾组织ET 1含量与CPAH和CIN呈负相关 (r=- 0 .883 2 ,P<0 .0 1 ;r =- 0 .945 2 ,P<0 .0 1 )、与FENa+呈正相关 (r=0 .873 4 ,P<0 .0 1 )。结论　内毒素血症及其诱导的肾内ET分泌增加在阻塞性黄疸所致大鼠肾损害中可能具有重要作用     

梗阻性黄疸患者的内毒素血症及其对机体的影响

４９例梗阻性黄疸患者（实验组）和８１例无黄疸的胆系疾病患者（对照组）围手术期外周血的内毒素（ＥＴ）检测结果表明，实验组：①术前ＥＴ阳性率明显高于对照组（Ｐ＜０．００１）；②术后１０～１２ｄ夹闭Ｔ／Ｙ管后ＥＴ阳性率明显低于术前和夹管前（Ｐ＜０．００１）；③伴急性化脓性胆管炎（ＡＣＳＴ）的患者ＥＴ阳性率明显高于无ＡＣＳＴ的患者（Ｐ＜０．００１）；术前口服胆盐的患者ＥＴ阳性率则显著低于未口服胆盐者（Ｐ＜０．００１）．作者认为，本组梗阻性黄疸患者中出现的肾功能障碍、胃肠道出血以及２例患者的死亡，至少部分地与内毒素血症有关。     

阻塞性黄疸:PTC下胆管钳夹活检的技术方法学研究

目的探索切实可行的胆管病理学检查新途径.资料与方法连续92例阻塞性黄疸患者接受经皮肝穿刺胆管造影(PTC)和经皮肝穿胆管引流(PTCD)治疗.PTCD过程中,影像监测下经皮经肝胆管穿刺,向胆管内引入活检钳对梗阻段钳夹活检,行组织病理学检查.统计学分析用χ2检验或Fisher确切概率计算法,以α=0.05作为检验水准.结果 92例钳夹活检患者90例成功获得组织块,技术成功率97.83%(90/92).钳夹活检敏感性为88.04%,63例胆管癌性恶性肿瘤钳夹活检敏感性较25例非胆管癌性恶性肿瘤高(93.65%比72.00%,P＜0.05).结论PTC下胆管钳夹活检操作简单,创伤小,敏感性高,是一种值得推广的胆管病理学诊断新途径.     

梗阻性黄疸引起肾脏病理学及超微病理学改变的实验与临床研究

作者对梗阻性黄疸（梗黄）大鼠及６例临床梗黄病人的肾脏组织进行了光镜和电镜观察。目的是描述肾脏损害的病理和超微病理改变，并试图从病理改变来探讨肾脏损害的可能病因及肾脏功能的改变。观察发现主要病变为肾小球萎缩，鲍曼氏囊间隙扩大，肾小球毛细血管基膜明显增厚，其三层结构消失，内有大量胆色素颗粒沉积，血管内皮窗孔明显减少，足突融合；近曲小管上皮细胞变性、坏死，胞质内有大量胆色素颗粒沉积，小管腔内可见脱落的坏死细胞、胆泥、胆栓及蛋白管型，微绒毛紊乱、稀疏、脱落，线粒体高度水肿，内质网扩张，脂滴、溶酶体明显增多。据此，我们认为：（１）梗黄可引起明显肾脏损害，其病变同时累及肾小球和肾小管，但以近曲小管病变为重；（２）胆汁成分于肾脏内的沉积在梗黄引起肾脏损害的发病中起一定作用；（３）梗黄可导致肾脏功能改变。     

婴儿先天性胆总管囊肿16例诊治分析

１９８５￣１９９４年作者单位共收治小儿先天性胆总管囊肿１０５例，其中年龄小于１２个月者１６例，占１５．２％，本病临床表现不典型，易延误诊治，超声检查可在产前检出本病，作者认为对于待续性黄疸的婴儿，保守治疗不宜时间过长，应积极手术探查。     

CT对肝内,外阻塞性黄疸的鉴别诊断价值

笔者通过对３５例阻塞怀黄疸的ＣＴ所见，指出了胆道扩张征象可作为鉴别肝内、阻阻塞性黄疸的可靠指标，再结合临床及ＣＴ的初期征象，可更加提高其鉴别诊断准确率。本文对这些指标的可靠性进行重点讨论。提出了该特点是特别胆道管囊肿的重要指征，即后者的胆道扩张为局部性或节段性。本文对良、恶性病变所致的胆道扩张形态亦进行了对照分析，发现二阻之间无明显性差异。     

Effects of obstructive jaundice on neutrophil production and acquisition of chemotactic activity in the bone marrow

Background and Aims:  Increased numbers and enhanced functions of peripheral neutrophils have been observed in obstructive jaundice. However, the effects of obstructive jaundice on the bone marrow, that is neutrophil production and acquisition of neutrophil chemotactic activity, have been poorly understood. In the present study, differentials of bone marrow cells and chemotactic activity of bone marrow neutrophils were evaluated in bile duct-obstructed rats.
Methods:  Male Wistar rats underwent either bile duct obstruction for 10 days or bile duct obstruction for 4 days followed by 6 days' internal biliary drainage. Differentials of peripheral blood and bone marrow cells were sequentially determined. Chemotactic activity of peripheral and bone marrow neutrophils was evaluated with a modified Boyden method using interleukin-8 (recombinant rat Gro-β) as a chemoattractant.
Results:  Numbers of peripheral neutrophils significantly increased after bile duct obstruction. Significant increases in the myeloid/erythroid (M/E) ratio of bone marrow cells were observed after bile duct obstruction. The neutrophil proliferative pool (promyelocytes and myelocytes) increased initially, followed by an increased neutrophil storage pool (metamyelocytes, bands, and segmented neutrophils). The M/E ratio as well as the neutrophil proliferative and storage pools normalized after internal biliary drainage. Chemotactic activity was enhanced in both peripheral and bone marrow neutrophils after bile duct obstruction, and enhanced chemotaxis was alleviated with internal biliary drainage.
Conclusion:  The present results strongly suggest the principal role of the bone marrow in increasing the number of neutrophils and their chemotactic activity during obstructive jaundice.
