Objective To observe the effects of blood pressure by intravenous infusion of different doses ofoxytocin in cesarean section.Methods Sixty full-term pregnant women undergoing cesarean section with continuous epidural anesthesia were divided into three groups by random digits table method with 20 cases each:group A,B and C.Three groups were injected 10 U oxytocin in uterine muscle after infant delivery.Group A,B and C received 5,10 and 20 U oxytocin (sodium lactate ringer,500 ml) continuous intravenous infusion at the speed of 10 ml/min.If happened uterine contractions bad,they were sublingual administering 0.2 mg misoprostol.If happened severe hypotension,they were intravenous injected 5 mg ephedrine.The change of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heat rate before anesthesia (T0),after fetal childbirth (T1),5 m in (T2),10 min (T3),30 min (T4) after infusion of oxytocin and the dosage of ephedrine and misoprostol were recorded.Results There were no significant differences in MAP and heart rate at every time point between group A and B (P＞ 0.05).MAP decreased and heart rate increased in group C at T2,T3 compared with those in group A and B,and there were significant differences (P＜ 0.05).The number of cases of sublingual misoprostol were increased in group A (7 cases) compared with that in group B (2 cases) and group C(1 case).The 8 patients injected ephedrine in group C were more than group A(1 case) and group B (3 cases).Conclusion Cesarean section after the delivery of the fetus in the uterus muscle injection of oxytocin 10 U,after 10 U of oxytocin added 500 ml sodium lactate ringer injection at the speed of 10 ml/min intravenous infusion has little effect on the blood pressure and heart rate,and has good uterine contractions.

A total of 185 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were consisted of male group (n =95) and postmenopausal female group (n =90).The parameters of fasting plasma glucose,HbA1c,fasting insulin,fasting C peptide,homeostasis model assessment insulin resistant index (HOMA-IR) and β-cell function (HOMA-β),blood lipid,body mass index,and waist to hip ratio were collected and analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis and stepwise multiple regression analysis.The relationships between osteocalcin and these parameters were investigated.The results revealed that osteocalcin was negatively correlated with HbA1C (P＜0.05),and osteocalcin was an independent relevant factor affecting HbA1Clevels.Osteocalcin may be involved in the regulation of glucose metabolism in T2DM.

Meningioma of unusual age of onset, location, histogenesis and histologic type is reported. The patient, 4 year-old girl, had an intradural spinal meningioma arising from lumbar nerve root with no dural attachement. The meningioma revealed glycogen-rich, clear cell type with extensive and blocky hyalinization of the stroma. The tumor shared common fibrous sheath with attached lumbar nerve, and nerve fibers were scattered within the tumor. Ultrastructurally, the tumor cells had abundant glycogen particles, intermediate filaments and intercellular desmosomes. Hyalinized material revealed large amianthoid collagen fibers.

Objective To investigate the effects of different therapeutic strategies on recurrence of postoperative Crohn's disease (CD) patients.Methods From September 2009 to September 2014,85 CD patients with intestinal resection were enrolled.The clinical features and maintenance therapeutic medication were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into non-treatment group (induding continuously or cumulatively taking medicine less than three months),5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) group and immunosuppressant agents group (including azathioprine,methotrexate and thalidomide).Kaplan-Meier method was performed to compare the recurrence rate in postoperative CD with different therapeutic medication and the risk factors of postoperative recurrence were also analyzed.Results Among 85 CD patients,there were 32,21 and 32 patients in non-treatment group,5-ASA group and immunosuppressive agents group,respectively.After surgery,the one year accumulated clinical recurrence rate of immunosuppressant agents group was 12.5％ (4/32),which was significantly lower than that of non-treatment group (56.3％,18/32) and 5-ASA group (38.1％,8/21),and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =12.250,P＜0.01;x2 =4.102,P =0.043).After surgery,the two years accumulated clinical recurrence rate of immunosuppressant agents group was 12.9 ％ (4/31),which was significantly lower than that of non-treatment group (75.9％,22/29) and 5-ASA group (47.6％,10/21),and the differences were statisitcally significant (x2 =17.840,P＜0.01;x2 =6.597,P=0.010).After operation,the one year accumulated endoscopic recurrences rates of non-treatment group,5-ASA group and immunosuppressant agents group were 39.1％ (9/23),5/16 and 34.6％ (9/26),respectively;while the two year accumulated endoscopic recurrence rates were 59.1％ (13/22),6/16 and 44.0％ (11/25),respectively.However,there was no statistically significant difference among the groups (all P＞0.05).Penetrating lesion was an risk factor of postoperative clinical recurrence in CD patients (x2 =4.963,P=0.026,oddsratio (OR) =2.221,95 ％ confidence interval (CI) 1.121 to 5.775).Conclusions Immunosuppressive agents rather than 5-ASA have remarkable effects in preventing postoperative clinical recurrence in CD patients.Postoperative clinical recurrence is more likely to happen in patients with penetrating lesions.

Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on lung ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats.Methods Ninety-six healthy SPF male Wistar rats,weighing 250-350 g,aged 8-12 weeks,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =24 each):sham operation group (S group),I/R group,low dose dexmedetomidine group (DL group) and high dose dexmedetomidine group (DH group).In DL and DH groups,dexmedetomidine 100 and 500 μg· kg-1 · d-1 were injected intraperitoneally once a day for 2 consecutive days,while the equal volume of normal saline was given in S and I/R groups.Lung·I/R was induced by clamping the left hilum of lung for 45 min followed by reperfusion at 30 min after administration on 2nd day.At 45 min of ischemia,and 60 and 120 min of reperfusion,6 rats were sacrificed,and lungswere removed for determination of TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor-a) content and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in lung tissues.The percentage of damaged alveolar in lung tissues was detected at 120 min of reperfusion.Another 6 rats were lavaged and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was colleted for determination of the total protein concentrations.Results Compared with S group,the TNF-α content,MPO activity,percentage of damaged alveolar,and total protein concentrations in BALF were significantly increased in I/R,DL and DH groups.Compared with I/R group,the TNF-α content,MPO activity,percentage of damaged alveolar,and total protein concentrations in BALF were significantly decreased in DL and DH groups.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can alleviate the lung I/R injury in rats,and the mechanism is related to inhibiton of the inflammatory responses.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of intestinal flora in infants with different feeding patterns.Methods Sixty-two cases of health infants(30-120 d)were divided into 4 groups according to their feeding patterns:breast feeding,imported powder milk feeding,domestic powder milk feeding and mixed feeding.Samples of their fresh feces in each group were collected and divided into sections equally:the bifidobacteria were isolated in anaerobic box and the number was counted for one section;for the other section,total DNA of intestinal flora was extracted and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC) fingerprints were amplified with the method of ERIC-PCR.After that,the specific bands observed in different groups were cloned and sequenced and alignmented.Results The colonies of bifidobacteria were more in breast feeding and mixed feeding groups[(9.10 ± 1.33) cfu/g;(8.62 ± 1.35) cfu/g]than those in domestic powder milk feeding and imported powder milk feeding groups[(7.62 ± 1.22) cfu/g;(7.32 ± 0.80) cfu/g,t =3.23,P ＜ 0.05];while there was no significant difference between breast feeding and mixed feeding groups,and between 2 powder milk feeding groups.Two specific bands were found from the ERIC fingerprints (A:1 100 bp mainly in breast feeding,domestic powder milk feeding and mixed feeding groups;B:1 000 bp mainly in imported powder milk feeding group).Sequencing and analysis of Basic Local Alignment Search Tool showed that homologous bacteria of A and B fragments were bifidobacterium longum.The encoding protein of A fragments might be related to the enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism,and B fragments were related to the enzymes of protein metabolism.Conclusions The colonies of bifidobacteria in intestinal tract are more in breast feeding and mixed feeding infants than those in formula feeding groups.The distribution of intestinal flora in domestic powder milk feeding infants is more similar to that of the breast feeding infants.
