Objective To evaluate the effect and mechanism of ginkgolide injection combined with edaravone on acute cerebral infarction.Methods 120 acute cerebral infarction patients were divided into observation group and control group,60 cases in each group.The control group was treated with edaravone,and the observation group was treated with ginkgolide injection combined with edaravone.The neuron specific enolase (NSE),S100β,tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),interleukin-6 (IL-6),C reactive protein (CRP),National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS) and clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the levels of NSE,S100β,CRP,IL-6 and TNF-α of the observation group were (7.1 ± 1.5) μg/L,(0.2 ±0.1) μg/L,(14.5 ± 3.7) mg/L,(20.9 ± 5.3) ng/L and (11.2 ± 3.0)μg/L,respectively,which of the control group were (8.9 ± 2.0) μg/L,(0.4 ± 0.2) μg/L,(21.3 ± 4.2) mg/L,(29.7 ± 3.2) ng/L and (18.8 ± 3.6) μg/L,respectively,those of the observation group were significantly lower than comrol group (t =2.898,2.894,3.012,2.998,3.025,all P <0.05).After treatment for 7d and 14d,the NIHSS scores of the observation group were (11.8 ± 3.0) points and (7.3 ±2.2) points,respectively,which of the control group were (15.2 ± 3.9) points and (10.5 ± 3.0) points,respectively,the observation group were significantly lower than control group(t =2.984,3.037,all P < 0.05).The clinical efficacy of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group (83.3 % vs.61.7%) (x2 =7.064,P <0.05).Conclusion Ginkgolide injection combined with edaravone in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction caninhibit inflammation reaction,alleviate nerve function damage,its effect is better than edaravone.

Objective Clone and mutagenesis analysis of nhaA gene in Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139. Methods 40 strains of Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 were collected. A full length nhaA gene fragment was amplified with PCR and cloned into plasmid vector pcDNA3. Homology and mutagenesis of nhaA gene in Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 were analyzed after sequencing the nhaA gene. Results nhaA gene of Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 were successfully amplified and cloned. Sequence analysis manifested that nhaA gene of Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 in China share a high homology with reference sequence of wide-type Vibrio cholerae O1 in GENEBANK(99% and 96% respectively). The amino acid mutagenesis rates of nhaA gene in Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 were 2% and 11% respectively. The important residues(Asp133,Asp163,Asp164,His225,Leu73 and Gly338 )had no mutation. But in residues 203 and 221 of nhaA gene Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 had common mutation. Conclusions Mutagenesis of nhaA gene and NhaA protein may be the result of Vibrio cholerae adaptation to survival environment.

AimTo study the effect of interferon gamma( IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α) in the immune pathogenesis of dengue virus infection. Method The serum levels of IFN-γ and TNF-α were measured with emzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method in 30 cases of the patients with the dengue virus infection in Guangzhou district. The results were treated with t-test of two sample mean. ResultsThe serum levels of IFN-γ and TNF-α in patients with the dengue virus infection were much higher than healthy controls( P < 0.05、 P < 0.01 ). IFN-γ was detectable on the first day of postinfection. Level of IFN-γ reached their peaks on the second day, then declined . The level of TNF-α had an obvious rise from the second day and reached their peaks on the third day, then declined. ConclusionThe data suggest that the IFN-γ and TNF-α may play an important role in the dengue virus pathogenicity and immunity.

To investigate the effects of particle size, mPEG molecular weight, coating density and zeta potential of monomethoxyl poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (mPEG-PLGA) nanoparticles on their transportation across the rat nasal mucosa, mPEG-PLGA-NPs with different mPEG molecular weights (M(r) 1 000, 2 000) and coating density (0, 5%, 10%, 15%) and chitosan coated PLGA-NP, which loaded coumarin-6 as fluorescent marker, were prepared with the nanoprecipitation method and emulsion-solvent evaporation method, and determine their particle size, zeta potential, the efficiency of fluorescent labeling, in vitro leakage rate and the stability with the lysozyme were determined. The effects of physical and chemical properties on the transmucosal transport of the fluorescent nanoparticles were investigated by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). The result showed that the size of nanoparticles prepared with nanoprecipitation method varied between 120 and 200 nm; the size of nanoparticles prepared with emulsion-solvent evaporation method varied between 420 and 450 nm. Nanoparticles dispersed uniformly; the zeta potential of PLGA-NPs was negative; mPEG-PLGA-NPs was close to neutral; chitosan coated PLGA-NPs was positive; and the efficiency of fluorescent labeling were higher than 80%. In vitro leak was less than 5% within 4 h and nanoparticles were basically stable with lysozyme. The CLSM results show that the transportation efficiency of mPEG-PLGA-NPs with a high PEG coating density and high mPEG molecular weight was significantly higher than that of uncoated PLGA nanoparticles and also that of chitosan coated PLGA-NPs (P < 0.05). The hydrophilcity, zeta potential and particle size of nanoparticles play important roles on the efficiency of mPEG-PLGA nanoparticles to transport across the rat nasal mucosa.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of blood loss for laboratory test of critically ill premature infants,and to seek feasible measures to reduce the blood loss.Methods Two hundred and forty-six cases of critically ill premature infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit from April 2012 to April 2013 were analyzed the blood loss for test during the hospitalization and the clinical features of blood loss with different gestational age,different weight within the first four weeks after admission.Then the application of blood loss according to test category was described.The blood volume demanded in theory was determined by the formula B =5 (∑ s + 0.1),then calculated the phlebotomy overdraw on the basis of the practical blood loss and analyzed the characteristics of overdraw per patients per day in first two weeks after admission.Results Among 246 patients,The median blood loss figure was 25.57 ml for each infants with the range between 7.10 ml ~ 119.20 ml,and the blood loss concentrated in first four weeks,which showed a decreasing trend with time.There was a statistically significant difference(P <0.05)that the smaller gestational age,the lower birth weight,the more daily blood loss per patient per day in first two weeks,but no significant differences(P > 0.05) between the third and fourth week.The largest proportion of the blood samples was used for clinical chemical tests(31.49%),followed by blood gas analysis (19.03%),immunoassays (12.69%),blood cultures (12.63%),hematology (12.28%).The practical blood loss was about twice times of blood volume demanded for tests in theory,which the median was 7.8 times to the latter(25.57 ml vs 3.26 ml).It showed statistically significant difference(P <0.05) between blood overdraw per patients per day in the first week and the second week.Compared with different gestational age and birth weight,the difference of overdraw was also statistically significant(P <0.05).According to test category,blood culture was the most significant samples of phlebotomy overdraw,followed by biochemical,other,blood gas analysis,the percentage was 76%,64%,45% and 41% respectively.Conclusion The blood loss for laboratory test and the phenomenon of blood waste is serious in critically ill preterm infants.The smaller the gestational age is,the lower the weight is,the amount of blood loss and phlebotomy overdraw are more significantly.Biochemical and blood gas analysis are the main items of blood loss.

Objective To evaluate the value of PLR-△SVV for the septic shock patients with autonomous breathing. Methods 60 patients were included in the study. Hemodynamic data of PICCO were collected before and after treatment. After rehydration, the group (△SV≥10%) was defined volume responder group, and then the predictive value of PLR-△SVV was analyzed. Results Compared with the nonresponders group, PLR-△SVV was increased significantly in response group[(10 ± 4)mL vs (14 ± 6)mL,P<0.05]. The ROC curve for PLR-△SVV were 0.881, and the sensitivity was 85.7%, the specificity was 92.0%.
