Objective To determine whether it is necessary to execute pre-labor pubic shaving.Methods Women(336 cases)who received pubic shaving through vaginal delivery from 2003 to 2006 were set as the control group.Women(103 cases)who were waiting for delivery currently in our hospital were set as the test group.The test group only received perineal cleaning without pubic shaving.If episiotomy was needed during the operation,the perineal hair Was cut by scissors.The perineum infectious rate and postpartal infection Was compared in the two groups.We interviewed the patients attitude for pubic shaving and counted the numing time used for pubic shaving.Results The perineal infection in the test group was 5.8%,which was no statistically different from that of the control group(2.4%),U=0.33,P＞0.05.Totally 95% women in the test group support this method demonstrated humanization.In the telephone folow-up visit for patients in the control group they comphined itch and discomfort during the regeneration of pubes.The average numing time for pubic shaving Was(4.6±0.6)minutes.Conclusions No pubic shaving for pre-labor skin preparation was feasible.If operation was disturbed by pubes we could use scissors to cut it short.This method could reduce the skin infection and propagation of blood-derived infectious disease.It increased the comfort of parturient,saved time and proved to be a nursing method of humanization.

Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of dexmedetomidine sedation in interventional neuroradiology operations.Methods Eighty-five cases ASA grade Ⅱ-Ⅲ grade patients undergoing cerebral angiography according to age divided into two groups:old group(more than 60 years old,35 cases) and young group (18-59 years old,50 cases).The loading dose of dexmedetomidine were dexmedetomidine 0.5 μ g/kg in old group and 1.0 μ g/kg in young group,respectively.The loading dose was administered for 10 min followed by continuous infusion dexmedetomidine 0.5 μ g/ (kg· h).Blood pressure,heart rate (HR),peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) and respiratory rate (RR),Ramsay score and bispectral index(BIS) were monitored and recorded during the study.Results The BIS,Ramsay score after administration 10,15,30,45 min in two groups was significantly longer than that before administration [old group:84 ±22,83 ±22,85 ± 15,75 ±23 vs.94 ±5; (2.0 ±0.4),(2.3 ±0.6),(2.8 ±0.7),(3.0 ±0.7)scores vs.(1.7 ± 0.5) scores; young group:91 ± 8,89 ± 11,86 ± 12,81 ± 13 vs.96 ± 2; (1.9 ± 0.6),(2.3 ±0.7),(2.7 ± 0.9),(3.0 ± 0.9) scores vs.(1.6 ± 0.5) scores,P ＜ 0.05].The systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,mean arterial pressure (MAP) after administration 10,15,30,45 min in two groups was significantly longer than that before administration [old group:(152 ± 23),(144 ± 23),(140 ± 21),(135 ±21) mm Hg(1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa) vs.(165 ± 25) mm Hg; (87 ± 11),(83 ± 11),(78 ± 8),(75 ± 8) mm Hg vs.(89± 13)mm Hg;(106±14),(100±13),(99±12),(95±12)mm Hg vs.(113±16)mm Hg;young group:(131 ± 24),(127 ± 23),(124 ± 25),(124 ± 26) mm Hg vs.(142 ± 23) mm Hg; (81 ± 13),(79±13),(77±13),(76±13)mmHgvs.(86± 14) mmHg;(97±16),(94±16),(91±19),(92±20) mm Hg vs.(104 ± 19) mm Hg,P ＜0.05],but the decreases in blood pressure were ＜20％ from baseline.The HR,RR and SpO2 was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine sedation during cerebral angiography has little effect on hemodynamics,no significant respiratory depression,is safe and effective.

Objective Adenosine receptor agonist NECA has a certain myocardial protection, but the specific mechanism is not clear.This paper aimed to study the effect and mechanism of NECA inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress to against myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in rats.Methods 56 Wistar rats of SPF grade were selected and divided into Sham group, I/R group, NECA group and TUDCA group through random number table method.We established the isolated rat heart ischemia reperfusion model by using the Langendorff device.Sham group: heart threaded but not ligated, Kerb-Henseleit buffer continuous infusion 170min;I/R group: heart stability 20min, ischemia 30min, reperfusion 2h;NECA group and TUDCA group: heart stability 20min, ischemia 30min, reperfusion 2h, perfusion solutions containing 0.1μmol/L NECA and 30μmol/L TUDCA were respectively given at 5min before reperfusion, and ended at 30min after reperfusion.Transmission electron microscope was used to evaluate alterations of the myocardial ultrastructures.Western blot analysis was used to detected the expression levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress IREl-XBPl signaling pathway marker protein IRE1α, XBP1s.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of IRE1α.Results The results of transmission electron microscopy showed that most of the myofilament ruptured, sarcomere contracture deformation, visible mitochondrial vacuoles degeneration in I/R group, and injury in NECA group and TUDCA group were less than the I/R group, appeared as the filaments arranged more neat, sarcoma only had mild contracture.Immunohistochemical results showed that IRE1αpositive staining was not found in the sham group, and the area of positive staining of IRE1α in I/R group was significantly increased, while the NECA group and TUDCA group were significantly decreased.Compared to the Sham group, the expression level of IRE1α and XBP1s was significantly increased in I/R group(P<0.05);but compared with the expression level of IREα and XBP1s in I/R group(1.72±0.27, 0.97±0.19), the NECA group(1.14±0.16, 0.6±0.13) and the TUDCA(1.07±0.27, 0.58±0.15) group were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion NECA can reduce endoplasmic reticulum stress through inhibiting IREl-XBPl pathway to protect the myocardium.

Objective To investigate the relationship between diabetes and bone metabolism and the potential epigenetic mechanisms. Methods BMSCs were cultured for 7 and 15 days in cell culture medium with different concentrations of glucose. The mRNA and protein expression of HDACs and osteogenesis-related genes were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot assay ,respectively. Moreover ,the combination of HDAC to the promoter region of Runx2 was tested by the chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay. Results ThemRNA expression of osteogenesis-related genes ,incuding OCN(P < 0.05)and Col1(P < 0.05),in the bone marrow of diabetic mice was significantly reduced compared with the control mice. The mRNA and protein expression of ALP ,OCN ,Runx2 and OSX was gradually reduced with the increasing concentration of glucose ,while HDAC2 mRNA and protein expression was increased. The binding activity of HDAC2 to the upstream and downstream of Runx2 promoter region in 25mM glucose-treated BMSCs was higher than the control group(P < 0.05). Conclusoins Diabetes might repress osteogenesis of BMSCs via inhibiting the activity of Runx2 through upregu-lating the expression of HDAC2.

The left ventricular twist was evaluated by 2-dimensional ultrasound speckle-tracking imaging (STI) in 50 patients with hypertension with normal geometric left ventricle (LV) and 45 normal subjects as control group. The mean value of LV rotation was obtained at each plane using STI. LV twist and twist velocity were defined as apical rotation/rotation rate relative to the base respectively. To adjust the intersubject differences in heart rates, the time sequence were normalized. The results showed that peak twist developed near the end of systole. Peak LV twist was significantly higher in patients with hypertension than normal controls (P<0.001). The diastolic untwisting mainly occurred in early diastole ( approximately 38%). Compared with normal controls, untwisting rate (Untw R) in patients with hypertension was significantly reduced (P<0.001), and untwisting half-time (UHT) was significantly delayed (P<0.05). This study demonstrated that STI has a potential ability to evaluate the early change of heart function in patients with hypertension by measuring the twist of LV.
