Objective To evaluate the relationship of the levels of serum oxide and antioxide with endothelium-dependent vasodilatation(EDV) in obese subjects and to explore the effect of oxidative stress on endothelial dysfunction in obese subjects. Methods 20 euglycemic obese males (Ob) and 13 age- matched normal controls (NC) underwent euglycemic hyperinsulinemia clamp study to evaluate the peripheral glucose disposal rate (GDR) in steady-state and brachial artery ultrasound studies to assess the endothelium-dependent vasodilatation (EDV). The serum levels of ROS, MDA, GSH-PX, GSH and free fatty acids (FFAs) were measured. Results The serum ROS, MDA and FFA concentrations were significantly higher in Ob group than in the controls (P

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of tirofiban on microvascular flow in infarction zone after coronary reperfusion in pigs with acute myocardial infarction (AMI),and to explore its mechanism of decreasing microvessel obstruction (MO) and the relationship with inflammatory factors. MethodsChinese mini pigs were randomized into control group and tirofiban treatment group.Acute myocardial infarction was induced by balloon occluding the medium segment of the left anterior descending artery for 90 min,and then reperfusion was created by withdrawing the balloon.The infarct myocardium and MO area were detected with delayed enhancement multi-slice spiral CT (DE-MSCT),the serum levels of IL-6 and IL-10 were measured with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The pigs were killed, the heartwere excised and stained with 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC). Results6 pig models were successfully established in each group.4 pigs in control group and 3 pigs in tirofiban treating group experienced MO.The MO volume was increased at every time after reperfusion in both groups,while the MO volume was significantly reduced in tirofiban treatment group compared with control group at 1 h [(9.6 ± 3.1) ％ vs.(4.8 ±0.7)％],24 h[(13.4±3.3) ％ vs.(5.8±-1.2)％],48 h[(15.1±3.8)％ vs.(6.4±1.2)％] and 72 h [(15.9±4.6) ％ vs.(6.6±0.8)％ after reperfusion (t=6.99,13.76,14.21,11.38,all P＜0.05).Compared with the baseline,the levels of serum IL-6 and IL-10 in both groups were increased at 30 min after AMI.In tirofiban treatment group,the level of serum IL-6 was significantly lower and serum IL-10 was higher than those in control group (P＜0.05 and P＜0.01) from 10 min to 72 h after reperfusion. Conclusions Tirofiban may lessen the MO area in infarction zone of AMI after reperfusion,which may be ascribed to its anti-inflammation besides anti-platelets.

Objective To study the difference in immunomodulatory effects among non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)-, Hodgkin lymphoma (HL)- and normal adult bone marrow-derived mesenthymal stem cells (MSCs). Methods MSCs were obtained from HL, NHL and normal adult bone marrow and cultured in expanded medium. Immunophenotype was investigated by FACS. The levels of cytokines were evaluated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). T-cell suppression ability was evaluated by Transwell. Moreover, the immunoregulatory ability of HL-, NHL- and normal adult bone marrow-derived MSCs was detected by mixed lymphocyte culture assay. Results HL-, NHLand normal adult bone marrow-derived MSCs were similar in morphology and immunophenotype, and they did not express HLA-DR and co-stirnulatory molecules (CD40, CD80 and CD86). All HL-,NHL- and normal adult bone marrow-derived MSCs could significantly suppress T lymphocytes'proliferation in a dose-dependent manner and such an effect could be reversed by anti-TGF-β1 antibody.MSCs differentiated into various mesenchymal lineages did not alter their immunosuppressive effects on T-cell proliferation. Conclusion The similar immunomodulatory effects were found among HL-,NHL- and normal adult bone marrow-derived MSCs, which was not changed by differentiation.

Objective To observe the postconditioning cardioprotective effects of atorvastatin (ATV) on ischemia-re?perfusion injury in isolated rat heart, and the role of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase , protein kinase B(PI3K-Akt), mitochon?drial ATP-sensitive potassium (mito-KATP channel) and mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) thereof. Meth?ods Healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 9 groups:ischemia reperfusion (I/R) control group, atorvastatin postconditioning (ATV) group, ATV plus PI3K inhibitor LY294002 (ATV+LY294002) group, LY294002 group, ATV plus mi?to-KATP channel inhibitor 5-hydroxydecanoate (ATV+5-HD) group, 5-HD group, ATV plus mPTP inhibitor ATR (ATV+ATR) group, ATR group and ethanol group. Model rats were given 30-min ischemia followed by 120-min reperfusion. The myocardial infarction size, hemodynamic parameters, creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), nic?otinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and the expression of myocardial protein kinase B (Akt) and myocardial phospho-pro?tein kinase B (p-Akt) were evaluated. Results Compared with the control group, atorvastatin reduced the myocardial in?farction size, CK-MB and LDH(P<0.05), increased NAD+(P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the myocardi?al infarction size, CK-MB, LDH and NAD+between ATV+LY294002 group, ATV+5-HD group and ATV+ATR group. The hemodynamic parameters were improved in ATV group compared with those in control group. Western blot analysis con? firmed the significant phosphorylation of Akt in ATV group, ATV+5-HD group and ATV+ATR group compared with those of control group. There were no significant differences in the phosphorylation of Akt between ATV +LY294002 group, LY294002 group, ATR group and 5-HD group. Conclusion Atorvastatin postconditioning could attenuate the ischemia-re?perfusion injury through activating the PI3K-Akt, promoting mito-KATP channel opening and inhibiting mPTP opening.

Objective To investigate the value of drug intervention for difficult weaning from mechanical ventilation. Methods A prospective single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted. 120 patients with difficult weaning from mechanical ventilation encountered in Department of Critical Care Medicine of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2008 to December 2013 were included,and the patients were divided into treatment group and control group according to random number table,with 60 cases in each group. Patients received furosemide therapy in the treatment group 3 days before weaning up to 48 hours after weaning in order to control negative liquid balance. Enema was given the day before weaning to reduce abdominal pressure. On the weaning day,all of the patients received nitroglycerin and beta blocker or cedilanid to prevent or control elevation of blood pressure and heart rate in the process of weaning. All patients in treatment group received anisodamine in small dosage 2 hours before extubation.The patients in control group received conventional treatment without drug intervention. Baseline indexes of two groups were compared,including the heart rate,respiration rate(RR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),pulse blood oxygen saturation(SpO2),blood gas,hemoglobin(HG),albumin(ALB)and creatinine(Cr). The main reasons of difficulty in weaning,sedative and analgesic drug selection,presence of abdominal discomfort before weaning,interval between sputum suction before extubation,liquid balance at the beginning of the investigation and at time of weaning,24 hours and 48 hours after weaning,failures of spontaneous breathing test(SBT),length of mechanical ventilation,length of ICU stay,and total length of mechanical ventilation and total length of ICU stay during hospitalization. Results There was no statistically significant difference in the heart rate,RR,MAP,SpO2,blood gas,HG,ALB,Cr at the beginning of the investigation between the two groups. The main reasons for difficult weaning in both groups of patients were respiratory dysfunction,cardiac insufficiency,and central nervous system dysfunction. The use of propofol combined dexmedetomidine in the treatment group was more frequent than the control group〔16.7%(10/60)vs. 1.7%(1/60),χ2=8.107,P=0.004〕,and there was no statistically significant difference in the use of other combinations of sedative drugs between the two groups. Abdominal discomfort before weaning was milder in treatment group as compared with control group〔10.0%(6/60)vs. 25.0%(15/60),χ2=4.675,P=0.031〕. The interval between sputum suction before extubation in the treatment group was significantly longer than that of the control group〔hours:1(1,2)vs. 1(1,1),Z=-2.209,P= 0.027〕. SBT failure was less frequent in treatment group compared with control group〔times:0(0,1)vs. 1(1,2),Z=-6.561,P=0.000〕. Liquid balance was better in the treatment group than the control group at time of weaning,24 hours and 48 hours after weaning〔at time of weaning:-567.71 (-755.95,-226.41)vs. 1 256.76(472.48,1 796.63),Z=-9.038,P=0.000;24 hours after weaning:-5.03 (-530.28,245.09)vs. 342.28(125.36,613.25),Z=-4.711,P=0.000;48 hours after weaning:115.50(-450.26, 485.00)vs. 330.00(16.25,575.25),Z=-1.932,P=0.053〕. Compared with control group,length of mechanical ventilation〔days:1.0(1.0,2.0)vs. 2.0(2.0,3.0),Z=-6.545,P=0.000〕,ICU stay time〔days:3.0(3.0,4.0) vs. 4.0(4.0,5.0),Z=-6.545,P=0.000〕,and total length of mechanical ventilation〔days:8.0(6.0,12.0)vs. 11.0(8.0,15.0),Z=-4.091,P=0.000〕and total length of ICU stay during hospitalization〔days:12.5(9.2,19.0) vs. 17.0(12.0,29.5),Z=-2.722,P=0.000〕were all significantly shorter in the treatment group. Conclusions Adjuvant drugs therapy is helpful in patients weaning from the mechanical ventilation,and can shorten length of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay time. Propofol,combined dexmedetomidine,is helpful for weaning.

Objective To investigate the value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and abdominal CT (CT) in diagnosis of periampullary lesions and to make comparison between the two procedures. Methods The patients suspected of surrounding lesions of ampullary from 2009 to 2013 in our hospital were included in this study. All the patients received both EUS and abdominal CT. The accuracy rate of these two examination methods was compared. Results 151 patients were confirmed as surrounding lesions of ampullary, including choledocholithiasis, ampullary tumors, ampullary inflammation, tumors of the pancreatic head and pancreatic cysts. The accuracy rate of these diseases was 83.6%, 90.6%, 6.5%, 100.0%, and 100.0%for EUS;while was 52.2%, 56.3%, 43.5%, 91.3%, and 100.0%for abdominal CT. The tatal accuracy rate for diagnosing periampullary lesions by EUS was significantly higher than that by abdominal CT (84.1% vs. 59.6%). Conclusions Endoscopic ultrasonography has higher value in diagnosis of periampullary lesions, and its accurate rate was higher than that of abdominal CT.
