Objective: To observe the therapeutical effect of intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) on pulmonary edema after seawater drowning in rabbits.Methods:Fourteen seawater lavage induced pulmonary edema New Zealand rabbits models were assigned to receive IPPV treatment.Blood gas analysis, pulmodynamics, hemodynamics status and serum tumor necrosis factor(TNF ?) were monitored at various time points.After 3 h ventilation rabbits of each group were killed to gain lung tissues for pathology examination, and lung lavage fluid was analyzed to count leukocytes.Results:PaO 2 significantly increased after the use of ventilation in pulmonary edema rabbits models ( P

Detection of low-level somatic DNA mutations and minority alleles within a wild-type sample is crucial in fields of medicine,such as cancer,prenatal diagnosis and infectious diseases.Increasing enrichment methods have been developed to study this challenging area.They are typically segregate by their ability to enrich for,and detect,either known or unknown mutations,including COLD-PCR,ice-COLD-PCR,TT-PCR,PNA-mediated PCR,WTB-PCR and digital PCR.In this review,we discuss theoretical principles and relative advantages and disadvantages of these techniques,and put an emphasis on their applications in fields of diseases.

Objective To investigate the security and effect of endovascular stents placement in treating atherosclerotic stenosis of the iliac arteries.Methods 15 cases with iliac arterial stenosis caused by atherosclerosis were treated by a big amount of thrombolysis in combination with iliac arterial stent placement.The length of lesions was from 4.3 cm to 9.5 cm(mean of 6.7 cm),the claudicant distance was from 100 m to 300 m(mean of 185 m).Clinical follow-up included CT angiography,color Doppler sonography and clinical evaluation with the ankle-brachial index(ABI).Results Eighteen stents were placed in 18 limbs of 15 patients.The technical successful rate was 100%.The clinical symptoms(claudication or the rest pain)were improved,and ABI increased from 0.25?0.18 to 0.85?0.15 after stent implantation in all cases.All the patients were followed up for 3~47 months,one patient was death during the follow-up periods because of brain stem ischemic stroke.All patients maintained uninterrupted stent patency until the final follow-up.Conclusion Iliac arterial stent placement is a safe treatment with favorable long term patency for treating arterial stenosis caused by atherosclerosis.

The electronically standardized patients have been used in the practice teaching of physical diagnostics.The application of the electronically standardized patients are of great help for teacher teaching and student learning.The quality of the physical diagnosis practice teaching has been improved.This paper analyzes the application and management of the situation.

SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is the etiologic agent of severe acute respiratory syndrome. The aim of this study was to construct Sars-CoV membrane (M), nucleocapsid (N) and spike 2 (S2) gene eukaryotic expression plasmids, and identify their expression in vitro. Gene fragments encoding N protein, M protein and S2 protein of SARS-CoV were amplified by PCR using cDNA obtained from lung samples of SARS patients as template, and subcloned into pcDNA3.1 vector to form eukaryotic expression plasmids. SARS-CoV protein eukaryotic expression plasmids were transfected respectively into CHO cells. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of the structural proteins of SARS-CoV in transfected cells. SARS-CoV protein eukaryotic expression plasmids were successfully constructed by identification with digestion of restriction enzymes and sequencing. M, N and S2 proteins of SARS-CoV were detected in the cytoplasm of transfected CHO cells. It was concluded that these recombinant eukaryotic expression plasmids were constructed successfully, and SARS-CoV encoding proteins could activate transcription and expression of hfgl2 gene.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of diallyl sulfide (DAS) in protection against acute lung injury in rats induced by paraquat(PQ). METHODS A total of 100 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group,PQ 70 mg·kg-1 model group,and DAS 25,50 and 100 mg·kg-1 treatment groups,with 20 rats in each group. A poisoning model was estalolished after administration ig at a single dose of PQ 70 mg·kg-1,while the normal control group was ip given the same volume of normal saline. DAS 25,50 and 100 mg · kg-1 was intraperitoneally injected 30 min before and after PQ exposure. Five rats in each group were sacrificed at 1,3,6 and 12 h,respectively. The inferior lobe of the right lung was observed by HE staining under an optical microscope. Tissue of the upper lobe of the right lung was used to detect the content of nitric oxide (NO). Alveolar macrophages (AMs) were collected and cultured for 24 h,and the content of nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)in the supernatant was detected. AMs were cultured for 72 h and the expression of iNOS protein in AMs was detected by immunocytochemistry method. RESULTS Compared with normal control group,the alveolar structure of PQ group was severely damaged and the pathological score was significantly increased(P<0.01). The NO content of PQ group was significantly higher than in normal control group(P<0.01). The content and protein expression of iNOS were significantly increased in PQ group(P<0.01). Compared with PQ group,the lung injury score of rats in DAS 50 mg·kg-1 group at 3,6 and 12 h and in the DAS 100 mg·kg-1 group at each time point was decreased(P<0.05). Compared with PQ group,the NO content of DAS 25 and 50 mg · kg-1 group was decreased(P<0.05),and the NO content of DAS 100 mg · kg-1 group was significantly reduced(P<0.01). The content of iNOS was reduced in DAS 100 mg · kg-1 group(P<0.05). Compared with PQ group,the expression of iNOS protein in DAS groups was decreased(P<0.05). CONCLUSION DAS can inhibit the oxidative damage in rats induced by PQ.

smids were constructed suc-cessfully, and SARS-CoV encoding proteins could activate transcription and expression of hfgl2 gene.

Novel coronavirus Omicron variant infection can cause severe illness and even death in certain populations. Omicron variant infection may lead to systemic inflammatory response, coagulation disorder, multi-organ dysfunction and other pathophysiological changes, which are different from other Novel coronavirus variants to a certain extent, so therapeutic strategies should not be the same. The National Medical Center for Major Public Health Events invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory medicine, intensive care, pediatrics and fever clinic to develop this quick guideline based on the current best evidence and extensive clinical practices. This quick guideline aims to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of novel coronavirus Omicron infection, and to improve the disease management abilities of clinicians.

Since 2010, the incidence of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) has been increased. Owing the progress in diagnosis and treatment, the overall mortality of SFTS in China has decreased, while the mortality in critical SFTS patients is still high. In order to provide guidance and working procedures for clinicians to diagnose and treat critical SFTS, the National Medical Center for Major Public Health Events invited experts to discuss and formulate this consensus based on their experience and up-to-date knowledge on SFTS.
