Objective To compare the difference in pharmacokinetics characteristics of vancomycin in cerebrospinal fluid between administration by continuous infusion and interim infusion.Methods Twenty postoperative patients in the Department of Neurosurgery of Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University admitted into intensive care unit (ICU) to receive vancomycin for prophylaxis of intracranial infection were enrolled, and they were randomly distributed to a continuous intravenous infusion group and a interim intravenous infusion group, each group 10 cases. In continuous intravenous infusion group, the patients received a loading dose of vancomycin (15 mg/kg) by continuous intravenous pump infusion for 1 - 2 hours followed by 30 mg/kg vancomycin in a constant pump infusion rate for 24 hours; while in interim intravenous infusion group, the patients received 15 mg/kg vancomycin administered by intravenous pump infusion for 1 - 2 hours, once every 12 hours. The concentration of vancomycin in the cerebrospinal fluid at different time points was measured by two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) method, the parameters of pharmacokinetics were calculated in the two groups, and the adverse reaction was observed.Results The comparison between the ratio of areas under the concentration-time curves (AUC) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the continuous and interim groups showed no significant difference (19.7±14.0 vs. 16.1±6.4,P > 0.05). However, in the continuous intravenous infusion group, the drug concentration reached the peak value (0.96± 0.77)μg/mL at 12 hours, and later revealed a plateau concentration 0.91-0.93μg/mL for 12 hours; while in the intravenous infusion interim group, the drug concentration reached the peak value (0.92±0.47)μg/mL at 16 hours, in the later 2 hours declined to (0.84±0.45)μg/mL, and afterwards still had a tendency of persistent declination. In all the patients, no any adverse reaction related to the drug occurred.Conclusion Continuous intravenous infusion and interim intravenous infusion of vancomycin for the postoperative neurosurgical patients without intracranial infection have the similar efficacy of medication, but the former can achieve the peak concentration faster and later the fluctuation of drug concentration in cerebrospinal fluid is smaller than those in the latter.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of losartan on heart rate variability of essential hypertensive patientsMETHO_DS:The heart rate power spectral density and time-domain in 24-hour dynamic EKG were analyzed in 50 healthy subjects and in 90 patients with hypertension before and after giving losartanRESULTS:The low frequency and total frequency and ratio between low frequency and high frequency of hypertensive patients were significantly higher than those of controls,the high frequency and standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals(SDNN) and standard deviation of the average of RR intervals(SDANN) for each five-minute period of the 24-hour eletrocardiographic recordings were significantly lower than those of controlsThe SDNN and high frequency of grade Ⅲ hypertension were significantly lower than those of grade Ⅱ hypertensionThe low frequency and ratio between low frequency and high frequency of grade Ⅲ hypertension were significantly higher than those of grade Ⅱ hypertension,and so were the grade Ⅱ than those of the grade Ⅰ It showed that vegetative nerve functi_onal damage was positively related with hypertensive gradeThe severer the illness,the greater the changeAfter losartan treatment,in addition to lowing the blood pressure,the SDNN,SDANN and high frequency of hypertensive patients were significantly increasedThe low frequency,total frequency and ratio between low frequency and high frequency of hypertensive patients were significantly decreasedCONCLUSION:When losartan lowers blood pressure,it can significantly improve the heart rate variability of essential hypertensive patients

Objective To evaluate the effects of different positions on cerebral blood flow in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.Methods Thirty patients of both sexes,aged 23-64 yr,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective laparoscopic surgery,were included.Patients' position was changed using a random number table after induction of anesthesia.Patients were placed in the supine position and tilted 15° head-up or 15° head-down,and the parameters of the middle cerebral artery were monitored using the transcranial Doppler ultrasound.After admission to the operating room (baseline),after induction of anesthesia and before pneumoperitoneum,in the supine position,at head-up tilt and at head-down tilt,the mean blood flow velocity,pulsatility index,resistance index,mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and heart rate were recorded.Results Compared with the baseline in the supine position,the MAP and bilateral mean blood flow velocity were significantly decreased at head-up tilt,and the MAP and bilateral pulsatility and resistance indices were significantly increased at head-down tilt (P＜0.05).Conclusion During laparoscopic surgery,head-up tilt can lead to a decrease in cerebral blood flow,and head-down tilt exerts no effect on cerebral blood flow.

This study investigated the protection against the ND in chickens by a recombinant DNA vaccine. A plasmid vector encoding NDV F protein, which is reqired for virus cell fusion and is important for vaccine induced immunity, was used as a model to study how DNA vaccines may be modulated by the simulaneous expression of chicken IL-2. The NDV D26 strain F gene with CMV promotor and BGH polyA signal sequence was amplified by PCR from eukaryotic plasmid pcDNA-F, which contains the full-length NDV F gene, and clond into reconstructed eukaryotic plasmid pcDNA-IL2, which contains chicken IL-2 gene. Restriction endonuclease cleavage and PCR amplification showed that a bicistronic plasmid encoding NDV F gene and chicken IL-2 separately was successfully constructed. Two-week-old SPF chickens were intramuscularly innoculated the recombinant plasmid. Antibody and lymphocyte proliferative assay showed that the humoral and cellular immunity of chickens vaccinated the recombinant plasmid greatly increased compared with those innoculated only plasmid expressing NDV F protein. Challenged with the lethal dose of NDV F48E9 strain, 72% chickens vaccinated recombinant plasmid were survived, and 30% chickens vaccinated plasmid expressing F protein were survived. These results proved the adjuvant effect of chicken IL-2, and further showed that the efficacy of a DNA vaccine can be greatly improved by simultaneous expression of IL-2.

ObjectiveTo investigate the misdiagnostic reason and treatment of the syndrom of splenic flexure of colon(SSFC). MethodsThe clonical data of 21 patients with SSFC admitted from May 1993 to May 2001 were retrospectively analysed. ResultsThese patients aged from 51 to 88 years old with a median age of 67.8years.Clinical manifestalion was repetitive stomach pain, abdominal distension, constipation, etc. Double contrast radiology of colon demonstrated that too high fixation site of colon of splenic flexure, volvulus of colon of splenic flexure, and displacement of colon usually occurred together with transverse or sigmoid colon redundant.All of them were cured by cololysis of colon of splenic flexure, redundant partial colectomy and managing other companying diseases.Postoperative pathological diagnoses were chronic colitis.Followed up was done for 6 months to 6 years, all of them released from primary symptoms. ConclusionsThe main misdiagnostic reason of SSFC is less understanding of SSFC and did not take double contrast radiology of colon. By way of cololysis of splenic flexure, redundant colon resection and managment other companying abdominal diseases, most patients with SSFC may expect satisfactory treatment effects.
