Objective To compare of pregnancy induced hypertension caused postpartum hemorrhage by two treatment methods. Methods 104 patients with pregnancy induced hypertension were randomly divided into misopr-ostol plus oxytecin group ( observation group)54 cases and the control group ( 50 eases ), used oxytcoin alone, respec-tively, Results postpartum hemorrhage in The observation group of is five cases(9.2% )which was significantly low-er than the control group of 11 cases(22.0% ) ( X2= 3.95 ,P<0.05 ). average postparttun hemorrhage in observation group is ( 195.6±88.4) ml which was significantly lower than the control group (303.2±111.6) ml (t=2.31, P<0.05). Conclusion Misoprostol combined with oxytocin is effective, safe and convenient to patients with postpartum hemorrhage caused by pregnancy induced hypertension.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator(rt-PA)and mild hypothermia for acute cerebral infarctions. Methods72 patients consistent with the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into 2 groups,hypothermia group receivied rt-PA combined with mild hypothermia and control group receiving rt-PA only.Neurological functions was evaluated with European Stroke Scale(ESS). ResultsAs intravenous thrombolytic therapy within 6h after the onset,the ESS scores examined 3 days after thrombolysis in hypothermia group was significantly higher than those in control group.As intravenous thrombolytic therapy during 6h to 12h after the onset,the ESS scores of hypothermia group increased more significantly from 24h after thrombolysis than those in control group. Conclusionft-PA combined with mild hypothermia was more effective than rT-PA only for acute cerebral infarctions,which was effective and relatively safe in the treatment of acute ischemic cerebral vascular disease.

Objective:To study the influence of cusp inclination of artificial posterior teeth on abutment displacement of unilateral distal-extension telescope crown denture.Methods:Study models of mandibular unilateral distal-extension and telescope crown dentures with the cusp inclination of 0?,12?,25? and 33? were respectively prepared. When food chip was masticated on the occlusal surface and the dentures were loaded by 29.4 N, 49 N or 68.6 N, the abutment displacement was measured.Then the data were calculated and reciprocally compared with statistical analyses. Results:Between anatomic and 25? semi-anatomic artificial posterior teeth, there were significant differences in the buccolingual and vertical abutment movement(P0.05). The parallel, inclination, twist-like and vertical movement of abutment increased with the increase of the load on the denture. The difference among different level of load was statistically significant (P

Atrial tumor myocytes (AT-1 cells) were derived from tumor-bearing mice in which SV40 T large antigen drives atrial natriuretic promoter. AT-1 cells possess many features typically seen in cardiac cells from other species, such as spontaneous beating, multiple ion channels and responses to drugs, etc. Major ion channels are present in AT-1 cells: sodium, calcium and potassium channels. Sodium channel in AT-1 cells is highly sensitive to blocker tetrodotoxin. L- and T-type calcium channels respond to classical blockers. An important outward potassium current in AT-1 cells is the rapidly-activating delayed rectifier (IKr). IKr Is the sole time-dependently repolarizing potassium current in AT-1 cells. AT-1 cells are a very useful tool for studies in cardiac electrophysiology and pharmacology. As yet, a great number of cardiac and non-cardiac drugs have been tested for their IKr blocking actions in AT-1 cells. The polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia (torsade de pointes) is a severe side effect of IKr blockers.

[Summary] The pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes has not been thoroughly understood. MicroRNA is a kind of small molecule RNA in regulating gene expression at post-transcriptional level. The dysfunction and amount changes of microRNA involve in the regulation of pancreaticβcell volume and function,and thus are related to type 1 diabetes. Here,we reviewed the research advances of microRNA in the development of the pancreas,insulin secretion and type 1 diabetes.

Protein kinase C pathway is an important intracellular signal transduction pathway.A growing number of evidences showes that activation of PKC influences endothelial cell permeability.In this review,we briefly summarize the effects and regulating pathways of protein kinase C in modulation of vascular endothelium permeability.

Objective To investigate the effect of mytomycin C in the operation of dacryocystorhinostomy for curing lacrimal passage obstruction. Method Forty-one patients with traumatic lacrimal passage obstruction were divided into treatment group (n=21, 14 males and 7 females with an average age of 32) and control group. (n=20, 12 males and 8 females with an average age of 35). The patients in treatment group received 0.4mg/ml of mytomycin C when undergoing dacryocystorhinostomy, while the patients in control group received no medicine when undergoing the same operation. Lacrimal passage was cleaned with water after operation, and the operational effectiveness of dacryocystorhinostomy were compared between the treatment group and control group. Results Twenty-one eyes were cured in treatment group, and the cure rate reached 100%. While for the 20 eyes in control group, 17 eyes were cured, and the cure rate was 85%. There existed statistical significance between the two groups (P

The bystander effect(BE) plays an important role in the gene therapy of cancer by the herpes thymidine kinase/ganciclovir(HSV-TK/GCV) system.It enhances the therapeutic efficacy of this system.Up to now,the exact underlying mechanism of the bystander effect remains unclear.A large body of evidence has indicated a close correlation of the connexin expression and gap junction in the targeted cells to the bystander effect.Here the publications concerning the relationship of gap junction with the bystander effect in the HSV-TK/GCV treatment have been reviewed.The possible cell death signals that can be transferred through gap junction to induce the bystander effect are also discussed.

Objective: To study 24-hour blood pressure variability (BPV) in essential hypertensives(EH) and to observe the effects of enalapril on BPV in the patients. Methods: BPV were evaluated in 132 EH patients (EH Ⅰ-Ⅱ group 90, EH Ⅲ group 42) using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, and compared with 60 normal controls.45 EH Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients were treated with enalapril for 4 weeks by randomized single-blind study.The BPV were measured before and after treatment. Results: The SBPV and MAPV during 24-hour period, daytime or nighttime were significantly higher both EH Ⅰ-Ⅱ and EH Ⅲ than control group ( P 0.05).Conclusion:There was a significant increase in BPV(especially in SBPV) and in particular EH Ⅲ group than control group There was no effect in BPV with EH Ⅰ-Ⅱ group by enalapril treatment for 4 weeks.

Objective To determine the sites of action of propofol and isoflurane on somatosensory pathway using median nerve somatosensory evoked potential(MnSSEP) .Methods Twenty-six ASA I - II patients aged 20-50 yrs were randomly divided into two groups: I propofol group( n = 13) and H isoflurane group( n = 13) .In propofol group patients received propofol infusion at a rate of 10 mg?kg-1?h-1 .Oxygen was administered via mask and respiration was assisted or controlled to maintain SpO2 at 96%-100% and PETCO2 at 35-45 mm Hg. The propofol infusion was continued until the patient failed to respond to verbal command. Six minutes later if the patient was still breathing spontaneously, the rate of propofol infusion was increased to 20-40 mg?kg-1?h-1 . In isoflurane group anesthesia was induced with propofol 2 mg ? kg-1 and intubation was facilitated by succinylcholine and anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane inhalation and intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium. The end-tidal isoflurane concentration was maintained at 0.5,1.0 and 1.5 MAC. Each concentration was maintained for 15 minutes. MAP, HR, SpO2,PCTCO2, T0(naso-pharyngeal) and BIS were continuously monitored. MnSSEP( Viking IV D type) was measured and recorded before induction of anesthesia(baseline) and in propofol group when patients became unconscious and apneic; in isoflurane group when end-tidal isoflurane reached 0.5,1.0 and 1.5 MAC.Results In group I there was no change in both latencies and amplitudes of N9 and N13'.With increasing infusion rate, propofol gradually prolonged the latencies and decreased the amplitudes of N60, P45, N35, N20 and P25 waves. In isoflurane group there was no change in the latencies and amplitudes of N9. There was no change in the latencies of N13', but the amplitudes decreased at 1.0 and 1.5 MAC. With increasing concentration, isoflurane gradually prolonged the latencies and decreased the amplitudes of P45, N60, N35, N20 and P25 waves. At 1.5 MAC the inter-peak latencies between N13'-N20 and N13'-P25 were prolonged. Conclusions The sites of action of different infusion rates of propofol and different concentrations of isoflurane are different on somatosensory pathway. The higher the doses, more widespread are the sites of action.
