[Coronary endarterectomy and bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass for patients with diffused coronary artery disease].
To review and summarize the early outcomes and clinical experience of coronary endarterectomy (CE) and bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass for patients with diffused coronary artery disease. ⋯ CE and bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass is technically feasible and can be performed safely in patients with diffused coronary artery disease with increased completeness of myocardial revascularization.

[The risk factors and preventions in keyhole minimally invasive approaches of intracranial aneurysms].
To evaluate the risk factors and study the methods of prevention and treatment for the ruptures of aneurysms in keyhole minimally invasive approaches. ⋯ Keyhole approaches as a time-saving, trauma-reducing procedure could improve the postoperative outcomes, but these approaches still exist probability of aneurysm rupture. It is possible that keyhole-bone flap becomes a limitation to deal with huge or ruptured aneurysms. And it is important to make a specially preventive strategy for aneurysm rupture.

[The potential mechanism on signal transduction pathway in regulation of mRNA expression of high mobility group box-1 protein in septic rats].
To investigate the potential role of Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway in regulation of gene expression of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) in various tissues in rats with sepsis. ⋯ Peritoneal infection could extensively activate STAT1 and limitedly activate STAT3 in vital organs. Activation of JAK/STAT pathway might be involved in up-regulating the gene expression of HMGB1 and systemic inflammation secondary to severe septic challenge.
