Background and purpose:Breast masses is woman's common diease,With the development of people's living.They are eager to find a new method which is efficient and less pain to replace conventional open surgery.So Mammotone appears.We assessed the efficacy of Mammotome biopsy system for the patients with single and multiple breast masses.We assessed the efficacy of Mammotome biopsy system for patients with single and multiple breast masses.Methods:From Janurary 2004 to April 2005,patients with single and multiple breast masses underwent Mammotome and conventional surgery respectively.Two methods has been compared from the aspects of difficulties,side effects,prognosis and degree of patient's satisfaction.Results:The length of excisions,anesthetic dosage,operational time,pain etc with Mammtome group were superior to the conventional group,especially for the patients with multiple breast masses.There were no difference in terms of bleeding during or after operation for two groups.Patients were followed up 3 to 15 months,none of the patients had relapse and patient's satisfaction was very encouraging.Conclusions:The color guided Mammotome showed very promising results for the patients with breast benign masses,and it was very useful for the masses either located deeply or were multiple.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of systolic pressure variation (SPV) in monitoring blood volume in patients.Methods Twenty-two ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients (17 male,5 female),aged 49-79 yr,with body height 153-173 cm,weighing 55-89 kg,scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting under cardiopulmonary bypass,were studied.Stroke volume variation (SVV) was monitored based on the arterial pressure wave and SPV measured based on the invasive arterial pressure wave after changing the title.After the chest was closed,the volume load test was immediately carried out.6％ hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 50-80 ml/min was infused via the jugular vein until cardiac index (CI) increased by 10％.HR,mean arterial pressure (MAP),SPV,CI,SVV,stroke volume index (SVI),systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI),central venous pressure (CVP),and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) were recorded in supine position (T1),at 30° head-down tilt before skin incision (T1'),before (T2) and after opening the chest in supine position (T2'),before (T3) and after the volume load test in supine position after closing the chest (T3'),in supine position after skin closure (T4),and at 30° head-down tilt after skin closure (T4').The difference in SPV and SVV (△SPV and △SVV) was calculated.The receiver operator characteristic curve for △SVV and △ SPV in determining blood volume changes was plotted.Results MAP,CVP,PCWP,CI,and SVRI were significantly increased,while SVV and SPV were decreased at T1' compared with those at T1 (P ＜ 0.05).HR was significantly increased,while CVP was decreased at T2' compared with those at T2 (P ＜ 0.05).MAP,CVP,PCWP,and CI were significantly increased,while SVV and SPV were decreased at T3' compared with those at T3 (P ＜ 0.05).MAP,CVP,and PCWP were significantly increased,while SVV and SPV were decreased at T4' compared with those at T4 (P ＜ 0.05).The area under receive operator characteristic curve for △SVV and △SPV in determining blood volume changes was 0.603 and 0.616 respectively,and there was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion SPV can accurately monitor the blood volume in patients.

Objective To evaluate the effects of fluid resuscitation and large-volume hemofiltration (HVHF) on the Alveolar-arterial oxygen exchange in patients with refractory septic shock. Method A total of 89 intensive care patients with refractory septic shock treated with fluid resuscitation and/or HVHF were enrolled between August 2006 and December 2009. All the patients were randomly divided into two groups. In group A, patients were treated with fluid resuscitation, n = 41 cases) and in group B, patients were treated with large-volume hemofiltration and fluid resuscitation, n =48). The O2 content of central venous blood(CcvO2), arterial oxygen content (CaO2), Alveolar-arterial oxygen pressure difference (P(A-a)DO2), the ratio of arterial oxygen pressure/alveolar oxygen pressure (PaO2/PAO2), respiratory index (RI) and oxygenation index (OI) were checked. The levels of oxygen exchange in two groups were detected by arterial blood gas analysis before treatnent, 24 hour, 72 hour and 7 days after treatment. The APACHE Ⅱ scores in patients with refractory septic shock were measured before and the 7th day after treatment with HVHF and/or fluid resuscitation respectively. Data were analyzed by using t -test and chi-square test to compare the differences and ratio between two groups and were expressed in mean ± standard deviation, and the analysis of variance was done with SPSS version 12.0 software. Results ① The differences in CcvO2 and CaO2 between two groups were[(0.60±0.24) vs. (0.72±-0.28), P ＜0.05 and (0.84±0.43) vs. (0.94±0.46), P ＜0.05]; and the oxygen extraction rates (O2ER) were significantly different between two groups [(28.7±2.4) vs. (21.7±3.4), P<0.01];② The levels of P(A-a)DO2、ratio of PaO2/PAO2、RI and OI in group B were reduced more significantly than in group A (P<0.05 or P<0.01);③The APACHE Ⅱ scores in both groups were gradually reduced after treatment for 7 days, and the APACHE Ⅱscore in group B on the 7th day of treatment were lower than that in group A[(17.2 ± 6.8) vs. (8.2 ± 3.8), P ＜ 0.01]. Conclusions Fluid resuscitation and HVHF could improve alveolar-arterial-oxygen exchange in patients with refractory septic shock, and at the same time decreased the APACHE Ⅱ scores, improving the survival rate of patients.

Soil water is one of the most important components in hydrological cycle. The stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopes in soil water have been increasingly used in the ecological, environment and hydrological research. In view of different techniques for extracting soil water, there is significant difference in theδD andδ18 O composition. This paper presents a method for analyzing hydrogen and oxygen isotopes in soil water by using elemental analyzer and isotope ratio mass spectrometry with accelerated solvent extraction for sample pretreatment. The conditions are: extraction solvent: dichloromethane, temperature: 100 ℃, pressure of 10. 3 MPa, static time:10 min. The samples were extracted three times, and with cycle values of four, four and three, respectively. Comparing with the added water, the deuterium and oxygen isotope values in the extracted soil water enrich 2. 12‰-4. 58‰ and 0. 17‰-0. 93‰, respectively. The reproducibility of replicate extractions of soil water is around ±0. 89‰ for δD and ±0. 37‰ for δ18 O.

Aim To investigate the role of captopril in insulin resistance of endothelial cells induced by high glucose.Methods 1 .Improvement effect of captopril on insulin resistance in HUVECs was observed.The HUVECs were seeded in a 6-well plate and were ran-domly divided into 5 groups,namely,control group, IR group,IR together with different Cap concentrations (low,medium and high concentration),respectively. 2.Improvement effect of Cap on insulin resistance was mediated by PPARγin HUVECs.HUVECs were ran-domly divided into 6 groups,namely,control group, control +PPARγinhibitor (PI)(1 .0 μmol · L -1 ) group,IR group,IR +PI(1 .0 μmol·L -1 )group,IR +Cap(1 ×1 0 -5 mol·L -1 ) group,and IR +Cap +PI (1 .0 μmol·L -1 )group.All indicators were detected. Results After HUVECs were incubated with media containing 33 mmol·L -1 of glucose for 48 h,the NO levels were significantly decreased while ET-1 levels were significantly elevated,showing a significant differ-ence between IR group and control group (P <0.01 ). The expression levels of PPARγmRNA and its protein were somewhat up-regulated,but there was no signifi-cant difference between IR group and control group (P>0.05).When the HUVECs in IR group were treated with DMEM containing glucose (33 mmol·L -1 )for 48 h and insulin for 30 min,the expression levels of PPARγmRNA and its protein in Cap groups were simi-lar to those in the IR group,and there was no signifi-cant difference between the two groups (P >0.05 );however, the expression levels of phosphorylated PPARγprotein in Cap groups were increased compared with IR group (P <0.05).The levels of NO were sig-nificantly increased whereas the levels of ET-1 were decreased in Cap groups,which had significant differ-ences compared with IR group (P <0.05).Nonethe-less,pre-treating with GW9662,a PPARγinhibitor, the improvement effects of Cap were markedly abol-ished.Conclusions Captopril could improve high glucose-induced insulin resistance of endothelial cells mediated by PPARγ,and the underlying mechanisms are related to the activation of PPARγ,rather than its expression.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect influencing factors of intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP) support during cardiac surgery perioperative period and countermeasures.Methods Clinical data of 42 patients using IABP in the cardiac surgery was analyzed retrospectively.The patients were classified into 2 groups:living group (32 patients) and died group (10 patients).The time of IABP implantation,preoperative cardiac function,the duration of cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) and aorta block,mean arterial pressure (MAP) and inotropic score (IS) before using IABP and postoperative complications were recorded and compared.Results In died group,2 patients were used IABP preoperatively,1 patient was used intraoperatively,7 patients were used postoperatively,8 patients were in NYHA cardiac function class Ⅲ or Ⅳ preoperative,the duration of CPB and aorta block were (144.43 ± 49.03),(97.29 ± 39.99)min respectively,MAP and IS before using IABP were (57.34 ±7.25) mm Hg (1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa) and (28.22 ±17.72) scores,IABP time was (86.00 ±52.31) min.Compared with living group,all above comparisons showed significant difference [(100.43 ± 35.03) min,(60.45 ± 20.55) min,(69.34 ± 8.05)mm Hg,(10.82 ± 15.75) scores,(49.00 ± 25.23) min] (P ＜ 0.05).Postoperative complications in died group included 7 patients of ventilator dependency,6 patients of acute renal failure,5 patients of refractory metabolic acidosis,2 patients of malignant arrhythmia,1 patient of acute myocardial infarction,significantly higher than those in living group (0,4,2,0,0) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Erroneously choose the timing of using IABP,poor preoperative cardiac function,prolonging CPB and aorta block time,MAP less than 60 mm Hg and high dose positive inotropic agent before using IABP,and postoperative complications are main influencing factors for clinical outcomes of IABP in cardiac surgery.Reasonably choosing adaptive indication and timing of IABP,preventing and treating postoperative complications effectively can improve effects of IABP in cardiac surgery.

Objective To study the therapeutic effects of omeprazoie in high-dose given by continuous intravenous infusion in the treatment of stress-related mucosal injury of G-I tract in intensive care patients.Method Totally 98 intensive care patients with stress-related mucosal injury(SRMI)were enrolled from August 2006 to October 2008 Department in Intensive Care Unit(ICU)of the Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University.All the patients were randomly divided into high-dose omeprazoie group(group A)and control group(group B).In group A,omeprazoie was administrated in loading dose of 80 mg Ⅰ.Ⅴ.in 5 minutes followed by maintenance dose of 8.0 mg/h intravenous infusion for 72 hours,while in group B,omeprazoie was given in dose of 40mg/8h intravenous infusion for 72 hours.The pH value of gastric juice was determined by German Roche pH test paper every 2 to 8 hours in the patients of both groups.The coffee like or red juice in the gastrointestine decompressor was observed.At the same time,hemoglobin(HB)was detected by Automatic blood cell analyzer Sysmex XE-2100,blood urea nitrogen(BUN)was determined by Automatic Analyzer Au5400,and buffer excess(BE)was checked by GEM Premie arterial blood gas analyzer in all patients.Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation(x-± s)and the analysis of variance was done with SPSS 12.0 software.Comparison of mean value between two groups was conducted with t-test and the ratio was calculated by using chi-square test(X2 test).The change was considered as statistically significant if P value was less than 0.05.Results Four,eight,and 24 hours after treatment with omeprazole,the pH values in patients of group A were higher than those in patients of group B(four hous:6.63 ±0.62 vs.3.14 ±0.26,P＜0.01;eight hours and 24 hours:P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).At 8 hours and 24 hours after treatment,the HB was higher,BUN and BE were lower in group A than those in group B(P＜0.03 or P＜0.01).The total rate of hemostasis of upper G-I tract bleeding in group A was higher than that in group B(95.35%vs.78.19%,P＜0.05).Conclusions For treating the intensive care patients with SRMI,the continues intravenous infusion of omeprazole inhigh dose is superior to conventional dosage.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the protective effect of naringin ( Nar) on the injury of human umbilical vein endothelial cells ( HUVECs) induced by 33 mmol/L high glucose ( HG) and to explore its possible mechanisms.METH-ODS:The injury model was established by treating HUVECs with HG medium for the indicated time (6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h) , and then the levels of NO, eNOS and p-eNOS were detected, respectively.The effects of Nar on high glucose-in-duced endothelial cell injury were observed.HUVECs were treated with Nar at concentrations of 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 mg/L for 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 36 h and 48 h.The levels of NO in the supernatants were measured.The effects of Nar on HG-injured HUVECs were explored by treating the cells with 10 μmol/L of LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, or 0.5 μmol/L of AKT inhibitorⅣ, an AKT inhibitor, and then the levels of NO, PI3K, AKT, eNOS and their phosphorylated proteins were determined by Western blot.RESULTS:Nar at concentration of 50 mg/L significantly attenuated the injury of endothelial cells induced by high glucose ( P<0.01) , and the protective effects of Nar were abolished by pretreating with the inhibitor of PI3K or AKT (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Nar protects endothelial cells against the injury induced by high glucose through PI3K/AKT/eNOS pathway.

Objective: To evaluate the incidence and mortality risk factors of pregnancy-related acute kidney injury (PR-AKI) in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted. Critically ill pregnancies admitted to ICU of Shandong University Affiliated Provincial Hospital from January 1st, 2012 to December 31st, 2016 were enrolled. Based on the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)-acute kidney injury (AKI) criteria, patients were divided into two groups: PR-AKI group and non-PR-AKI group. Clinical characteristics and laboratory data of two groups were compared. Risk factors of incidence and mortality of PR-AKI patients were analyzed, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the value of these risk factors in predicting mortality of PR-AKI patients in ICU. Results: ①A total of 219 pregnancies in ICU were included in the analysis, 85 cases (38.8%) were diagnosed with PR-AKI, with 29.4% in AKI stage 1, 27.1% in AKI stage 2 and 43.5% in AKI stage 3. ②Nineteen of 219 critically ill pregnancies died in ICU, the total ICU mortality was 8.7%. The mortality of PR-AKI group was higher than non-PR-AKI group (16.5% vs. 3.7%, P = 0.003). The mortality was worsened with increasing severity of AKI (4.0% for AKI stage 1, 4.3% for AKI stage 2, 32.4% for AKI stage 3). ③Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) and lactate (Lac) were the independent risk factors for PR-AKI [AFLP: odds ratio (OR) = 6.081, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 1.587-23.308, P = 0.008; Lac: OR = 1.460, 95%CI was 1.078-1.977, P = 0.014]. ④ Age, Lac, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) were the independent risk factors associated with the mortality of PR-AKI patients in ICU (age: OR = 1.130, 95%CI was 1.022-1.249, P = 0.017; Lac: OR = 1.198, 95%CI was 1.009-2.421, P = 0.039; APACHEⅡ: OR = 1.211, 95%CI was 1.102-1.330, P < 0.001; SOFA: OR = 1.411, 95%CI was 1.193-1.669, P < 0.001). ⑤ ROC curve analysis showed that age, Lac, APACHEⅡscore and SOFA score all had good predictive values for in-hospital mortality among PR-AKI patients in ICU, the cut-off value was 29 years old, 3.8 mmol/L, 16 and 8, respectively, and the AUC was 0.751, 0.757, 0.892 and 0.919, respectively (all P < 0.01). Conclusions The incidence and mortality of PR-AKI of critically ill pregnancies in ICU are high. Increased age, Lac, APACHEⅡ score and SOFA score are independent risk factors associated with the mortality of PR-AKI patients in ICU, and have good predictive values for prognosis.
