Objective To preliminarily summarize the diagnosis and treatment of coagulopathy in patient with severe hepatic cirrhosis who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods Preoperative coagulability, the replacement therapy by coagulation factors and platelet pre-and intraoperatively, intra-operative bleeding amount and blood transfusion amount and the relation to the postoperative course were analyzed retrospectively in 6 patients with severe hepatic cirrhosis who underwent OLT in the last year. Results All of the 6 patients had a Child-c preoperative hepatic function, 2 with prolongation of bleeding time. All of the 6 had a decrease of platelet count, with a mean platelet count of 25.3×109/L. Mean prolongation of prothrombin time was 10.7 seconds as compared with controls. Mean prolongation of activated partial thromboplastin time was 23.1 seconds as compared with controls. Mean fibrinogen was 1.5 g/L. Mean pre- and intra- operative transfusion of fresh frozen plasma was 788 ml, platelet 7.1×1012, cryopreciptitate 5.5 units, fibrinogen 2.8 grams and lyophilized prothombin complex concentrate (LPCC) 1 700 units. The first 4 cases in the early period had a mean bleeding amount of 8 672.5 ml, with a mean transfusion of 9 215.0 ml. One of the 4 with the most massive intraoperative bleeding was complicated by severe internal milieu disturbance, DIC and fungus infection and died of the infection. Postoperatively the last 2 cases in the late period had a complete preoperative replacement of coagulation factors and platelet and had a only mean bleeding amount of 2 700 ml with a mean transfusion amount of 3 638 ml. Conclusion We initially consider that a preoperative complete replacement of coagulation factors and platelet according to the coagulability tests may lessen intraoperative bleeding and transfusion and make the patient an uneventful postoperative course.
ObjectiveTo detect the effect of adeno-associated-virus induced Kringles5 gene on retinal neovascularization in rats with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), and to explore the new ways of treatment for ROP.MethodspSNAV-Kringle5-gfp carrier was constructed by subclone and adeno-associated-virus was packed to form rAAV-Kringle5-gfp. ROP model was set up under circumstances of high oxygen in 21 SD rats which were divided into experimental (21 eyes) and control group (21 eyes). Eighteen eyes from each group was used to making the histologic section of retina, and the other 3 eyes in each group was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blotting. There were 5 rats in the normal control group. AAV-Kringle5-gfp with the dosage of 10 μl and titer of 2.5×1012vg/ml was injected into the eyes in experimental group, while rAAVlacZ with the same dosage and titer of 2.5×1011vg/ml was injected in to the eyes in control group. The expression of target gene in ocular tissues was observed under the fluoroscope. Twelve weeks later, the rats were executed, and the staining of Ⅷ factor related antigens in retinal vascular endothelial cells was performed and number of nucleolus of vascular endothelial cells were counted. ResultsThe plasmid of pSNAV-Kringle5-gfp was correct according to the sequence measurement; the expression of rAAV-Kringle5-gfp was found in vitreous cavity and on retina; the expression of target gene was found on the level of mRNA and protein; the number of nucleolus of vascular endothelial cells on the surface of retina was (19.954 2±3.825 7) in experimental group and (7.335 2±2.731 3) in the control group, which had significant difference between the two groups (P<0.01).ConclusionsAdeno-associated-virus induced Kringles5 gene can inhibit the occurrence of retinal neovascularization in patients with ROP.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:288-291)
ObjectiveTo explore the efficacy of thrombin in treatment of subcutaneous effusion after radical resection of breast cancer. MethodsOne hundred and ninety patients underwent radical resection of breast cancer from July 2008 to July 2013 in this hospital were divided into postoperative observation group and postoperative control group according to the operation time. A daily injection of thrombin by drainage tube was performed on day 3 after operation in the postoperative observation group, the negative pressure drainage only was performed in the postoperative control group. The drainage volume in 72 h after operation, time of extubation, cases of subcutaneous effusion were counted after operation. Then the patients with subcutaneous effusion were divided into subcutaneous effusion observation group and subcutaneous effusion control group according to the time of extubation, the thrombin was injected into cavity after pumping subcutaneous effusion with pressing and dressing in the subcutaneous effusion observation group and only pressed after pumping subcutaneous effusion in the subcutaneous effusion control group, respectively. The healing time of subcutaneous effusion was counted in these two groups. ResultsCompared with the postoperative control group, the drainage volume in 72 h after operation was less(P < 0.001), the time of extubation was earlier(P < 0.001), the rate of subcutaneous effusion was lower(P < 0.05), color of drainage fluid on day 2 after mastectomy was lighter(P < 0.001)in the postoperative observation group. Compared with subcutaneous effusion control group, when subcutaneous effusion was 20-50 mL or > 50 mL, the healing time of subcutaneous effusion was significantly shorter in the subcutaneous effusion observation group(P < 0.05). ConclusionsInjecting thrombin by drainage tube after operation can reduce the drainage volume, decrease the rate of subcutaneous liquid, and shorten the time of extubation. Injecting thrombin into cavity of subcutaneous liquid can shorten the healing time of patients with middle and large subcutaneous effusions after radical resection of breast cancer.
Objective To investigate the effects of component blood transfusion combined with heparin therapy on coagulation function and clinical outcomes in pregnant women with acute disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 65 pregnant women with acute DIC who were treated in Obstetrics Department of Luzhou People’ s Hospital between March 2020 and March 2022. Pregnant women treated with component blood transfusion were included in the control group, while those treated with component blood transfusion combined with heparin were included in the observation group. Before and after treatment, the DIC scoring system was used for score evaluation. Coagulation function indicators and routine blood indicators were compared between the two groups of pregnant women. Adverse clinical outcomes and adverse reactions were observed in both groups of pregnant women. Results The study enrolled 65 pregnant women, comprising 30 in the observation group and 35 in the control group. Before treatment, there was no statistical difference in DIC score, coagulation function indicators, or routine blood indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). After treatment, the DIC score, prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, thrombin time, and D-dimer significantly decreased in both groups (P<0.05), and the above indicators in the observation group [3.39±0.48, (13.28±2.28) s, (24.68±2.06) s, (14.27±1.82) s, and (2.23±0.88) mg/L, respectively] were lower than those in the control group [4.11±1.56, (15.02±2.45) s, (26.79±3.18) s, (15.61±1.91) s, and (2.87±0.74) mg/L, respectively] (P<0.05). The levels of fibrinogen, platelet count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit significantly increased in both groups (P<0.05), and the levels in the observation group [(4.29±1.05) g/L, (175.36±20.46)×109/L, (84.09±7.27) g/L, and (25.49±3.13)%, respectively] were higher than those in the control group [(3.44±1.27) g/L, (145.77±21.12)×109/L, (76.58±7.13) g/L, and (23.03±3.05)%, respectively] (P<0.05). The observation group had a lower incidence rate of adverse clinical outcomes compared to the control group (33.3% vs. 74.3%, P<0.05). The incidence rates of adverse reactions were not statistically different between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Component blood transfusion combined with heparin therapy for pregnant women with acute DIC can effectively improve their coagulation function, reduce the risk of bleeding, and further improve adverse clinical outcomes such as postpartum hemorrhage and hysterectomy. Additionally, this treatment approach demonstrates a high safety profile.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of intraoperative intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) treatment on coagulation and fibrinolysis, lower extremity venous blood flow velocity, and deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in patients with gastric cancer (GC) after radical gastrectomy. MethodsThe patients with GC who underwent radical gastrectomy at Hebei Provincial People’s Hospital from July 2021 to July 2024 were retrospectively enrolled, then the patients were assigned into control group (the patients who did not receive intraoperative IPC) and study group (the patients who received intraoperative IPC), and the propensity score matching (PSM) method was used to conduct 1∶1 matching based on the basic characteristics such as age, gender, body mass index, comorbidities to ensure baseline comparability between the two groups. The incidences of postoperative DVT and lower extremity swelling, and coagulations [prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT)] and fibrinolysis [D-dimer (D-D), fibrinogen (FIB), and fibrin degradation products (FDP)], as well as lower extremity venous blood flow velocity were analyzed after PSM. The locally weighted regression was used to analyze the correlation between the coagulation and fibrinolytic functions indexes and the lower extremity venous blood flow velocity. ResultsA total of 120 patients were matched (60 cases per group). The baseline characteristics of both groups were comparable (P>0.05). The incidences of DVT on day 7 and lower extremity swelling on day 1, 3, and 7 after surgery in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The results of repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that there were statistically significant differences in the inter-group, time-related, and group-by-time interaction effects of coagulation and fibrinolysis indexes as well as lower extrimety venous blood flow velocities (P<0.05). The impact of the time factor on coagulation and fibrinolysis indexes and lower extrimety venous blood flow velocities varied with intraoperative IPC intervention measures. After surgery, the PT, TT, APTT, and lower extrimety venous blood flow velocities in the study group first decreased and then increased as compared with those before surgery, and the decrease degree was smaller and the increase degree was larger than those in the control group. After surgery, the D-D, FIB, and FDP in the study group first increased and then decreased as compared with those before surgery, and the increase degree was smaller and the decrease degree was larger than those in the control group. Both PT and TT were significantly positively correlated with femoral vein blood flow velocity (r=0.21, P=0.042; r=0.22, P=0.040), and both also showed significant positive correlations with popliteal vein blood flow velocity (r=0.25, P<0.001; r=0.20, P=0.032). APTT was only significantly positively correlated with popliteal vein blood flow velocity (r=0.33, P<0.001). D-D was negatively correlated with the flow velocities of the femoral vein, external iliac vein, and popliteal vein (r=–0.23, P=0.012; r=–0.22, P=0.047; r=–0.37, P<0.001). Both FIB and FDP were negatively correlated with the flow velocity of the femoral vein (r=–0.23, P=0.036; r=–0.27, P=0.002). FIB was also negatively correlated with the flow velocity of the popliteal vein (r=–0.26, P=0.038), and FDP was negatively correlated with the flow velocity of the external iliac vein (r=–0.31, P<0.001). ConclusionBased on the results of this study, intraoperative IPC treatment could improve coagulation and fibrinolytic functions of patients with GC after surgery, and has a certain preventive effect on occurrence DVT of lower extremity.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the changes in thrombelastography(TEG) during orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) in Chinese. MethodsTwentyfive patients with cirrhosis of liver undergoing OLT were studied. They were composed of two groups: cirrhosis group (n=15) and liver neoplasm group (n=10). Anesthesia was induced with propofol 1.5-2 mg/kg,fentanyl 3-5 μg/kg and vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg and maintained with isoflurane or enflurane inhalation.The operation was divided into three phases: ① before operation and preanhepatic phase (120 min after operation was started), ② 30 min after liver was removed,③ 5 min before reperfusion and 5 min,15 min,30 min,60 min and 120 min after reperfusion.In 8 patients among the 25 patients heparinasecelite TEG was measured 5 min after reperfusion in addition to celite TEG.If there was significant differences in traces between the two TEG measurements,an intravenous bolus of 50-75 mg protamine was given and the heparinasecelite TEG was repeated.The measured variables included the r (reaction) time,representing the rate of initial fibrin formation K (coagulation) time, alpha angles (α) reflecting fibrinplatelet interaction, MA (maximal amplitude) indicating qualitative platelet function and percent fibrinolysis at 60 min. ResultsIn cirrhosis group changes in TEG occurred after liver was removed and in earlier period after reperfusion, while in liver neoplasm group changes in TEG were found in earlier period after reperfusion as compared with preoperative value.At 5 min after reperfusion there were significant differences in TEG (r,K,α and MA) values between celite and heparincelite TEG (P<0.01). ConclusionDuring OLT coagulation disorder occurs mainly at anhepatic and early reperfusion phase.
Objective To show the changes of coagulation function in patients with esophageal carcinoma, and to explore the clinical significance of the changes. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 202 patients(as a trial group, 114 males, 88 females, aged from 36 to 69 years, median age at 49 years) with esophageal carcinoma confirmed by pathological examination in Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2010 through May 2014. The prothrombin time (PT), prothrombin time activity (PTA), international activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (Fib), D-Dimer, and platelet count, pathological type, TNM stage, gender were recorded. Eighty patients (38 males, 42 females, with aged of 39 to 71 years, median age of 51 years) without cancer were selected as a control group. Results Compared with the control group, coagulation parameters including PT, APTT, PLT, Fib, TT, D-Dimer were statistically higher in the trial group (P<0.05). Higher Fib level was found in the squamous cell esophageal carcinoma patients than adenocarcinoma cell esophageal carcinoma patients (P<0.05). Fib increased significantly (P<0.05) and APTT shorten (P<0.05) in the patients at stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅳ compared with those of patients at stage Ⅰ and stage Ⅱ. Fib and D-Dimer levels increased (P<0.05) in N1-3 patients compared with those of N0 patients. There was no statistical difference in gender or age (P>0.05) between the two groups. Conclusion Most of the patients with esophageal carcinoma have abnormal changes of coagulation and fibrinolysis system. Patients with squamous subtype and/or lymph node metastasis at advanced stages of esophageal carcinoma are prone to thrombophilia. So monitoring the coagulation parameters of cancer patients can be used as an effective measure to prevent blood clot.
