Objective To study the hemodynamics during closed chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CCCPR) in dogs in order to unravel the mechanism. Method Twelve healthy mongrel dogs were selected to make animal model of ventricular fibrillation induced by electric shock on the chest wall. Closed-chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CCCPR) was initiated four minutes after ventricular fibrillation appeared according to American Heart Guidelines in 2005 for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Rescue. After CPR for 2 minutes, 1mg epinephrine was injected intravenously. The central venous pressure (CVP), the aortic pressure (AOP)and the invasive electrocardiogram (ECG) were used to monitor continuously before ventricular fibrillation and the entire course of CPR. The coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) was calculated. The changes in aortic diastolic pressure (ADP) and CPP produced by chest compression or the injection of epinephrine were analyzed. The aortic pressure and the central venous pressure were recorded simultaneously during CPR. A chart was made and the CPP was calculated with the software Chart5Ch. The hemodynamic changes produced by the administration of epinephrine were studied. Data were analyzed with paired Student t test. P < 0.05 was considered as a significant difference. Results Two kinds of hemodynamic effects of CPR were observed. In 8 dogs (8/12) , the aortic pressure changed synchronously with the CVP, and the CPP was almost zero, and in other 4 dogs (4/12), the aortic pressure increased and the CVP remained unchanged with presence of the CPP. After the administration of epinephrine, the AOP and the CPP increased significantly. The Aortic systolic pressure(ASP) increased from (66± 14) mmHg to(107 ± 28) mmHg, (P = 0. 001). The Aortic diastolic pressure (ADP) increased from (25 ±2.2) mmHg to(45 ± 13) mmHg (P =0.001). And the coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) increased from (2.8± 3.8) mmHg to (29 ± 13) mmHg (P < 0.001). The 95 % confidential interval of the added value of the ASP,ADP and CPPwere (21.1-59.1), (10.2-28.3) and (16.7-35.7), respectively. Conclusions The thoracic pump mechanism is the primary role in the closed chest Cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Epinephrine can increase ADP and CPP and has the capability to break the balance between aortic pressure and central venous pressure, increasing the rate of successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Objective To investigate the left ventricular function changes of dobutamine stress echocardiography(DSE) in the patients with chest pain.Methods The left ventricular systolic and diastolic function of patients was evaluated using two-dimensional and pulse Doppler echocardiography by DSE.Results After DSE,among the 18 patients,8 appeared abnormal regional motion in the wall of left ventricle and 10 were normal.The SV and CO of those remained normal were higher than those who appeared abnormal.For both normal and abnormal patients the E/A ration was smaller than 1 when dobutamine was at peak dose.Conclusion Using DSE on chest pain patients was an effective method in evaluating regional and global systolic function of the left ventricle and the effective detection data for left ventricular diastolic function is still to be determined.

[Objective] This prospective study was conducted to assess the influence of overnight orthokeratology (OK) on low,middle and high myopia in southern Chinese teenagers.[Methods] Fifty-four subjects (107 eyes,age 11.65 ± 2.44 years,mean±SD)who matched the inclusion criteria for OK were enrolled in the study.The subjects were divided into three groups according to the different refraction baseline (low myopia group:0.75 ~ 3.00 D,51 eyes;middle myopia group:3.25 ~ 5.00 D,36 eyes;high myopia group:5.25 ~ 9.00 D,20 eyes).Refraction,central corneal thickness,corneal keratometry,anterior chamber depth and axial length (AL) were measured at baseline and after 1 years using ocular biometry.The changes were evaluated and compared among the groups.Results were analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software.[Results] Fifty-four subjects (total 107 eyes) completed the 1-year follow-up examinations.At baseline,the spherical equivalent refractive error (SER) was-2.15 D ± 0.63 D,-4.20 D ± 0.54 D,and-6.63 D ±1.18 D in three groups.The axial length was (24.50-± 0.66) mm,(25.16-± 0.65) mm,and (26.35 ± 0.87) mm in the three groups,respectively.There were no significant differences among the groups in initial central corneal thickness,anterior chamber depth,central,flat and steep kerotometry.The increase in axial length during the 1-year study period was (0.22 ± 0.27) mm,(0.09-± 0.22)mm and (0.02-± 0.22) mm in three groups,respectively,and the difference was significant between low myopia group and middle myopia group (P =0.04),low myopia group and high myopia group (P =0.008),whereas no significant difference was found between middle myopia group and high myopia group (P =0.35).Spherical equivalence decreased dramatically in three groups after one year (all P < 0.0001).And the difference was significant between low myopia group and middle myopia group (P < 0.0001),low myopia group and high myopia group (P < 0.0001).Central,flat and steep kerotometry after one year became flatten in all group (all P <0.0001).There were no significant differences in the change of central corneal thickness,anterior chamber depth and corneal diameter.[Conclusions] OK lens is more effective in middle and high myopia control than in the low myopia control.The change in corneal keratometry may be one of the main factors influencing the OK treatment effect.

ObjectiveThe human angiotensin converting enzyme2 (hACE2) transgenic mouse model was used to clarify the antiviral efficacy of BD-77 against a novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and explore the action mechanism of BD-77 against SARS-CoV-2. MethodSARS-CoV-2 Omicron and Delta variant strains-infected VeroE6 cell models were established and administered with BD-77 to observe the antiviral effect of BD-77 in vitro. A kit was used to detect the effect of BD-77 in vitro on the binding of spike S protein of SARS-CoV-2 virus (Delta/Omicron) to angiotensin converting enzyme2 (ACE2). Chromatography was adopted to detect the binding of BD-77 to the S protein and N protein of the novel coronavirus. hACE2 transgenic C57BL/6 mice were divided into a blank control group, SARS-CoV-2 infection group, BD-77 administration groups of 37.5 mg·kg-1 and 75 mg·kg-1, with eight mice in each group. The pneumonia model of SARS-CoV-2-infected hACE2 transgenic mice was built to observe the survival of the mice, detect the virus titer of the lung tissue of the mice, and observe the lesions in the lung tissue. ResultBD-77 had a certain inhibitory effect on Omicron and Delta variant strains in vitro, with median inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 526.3 mg·L-1 and 653.0 mg·L-1, respectively. BD-77 had no significant inhibitory effect on the binding of the S protein of WT, Omicron, and Delta variant strains of SARS-CoV-2 to ACE2 and had no binding effect with the S protein and N protein of the novel coronavirus. No mice in the blank group died, while the mortality rate of SARS-CoV-2-infected mice was 75%. There was a large amount of virus replication in the lung tissue of the mice and large areas of inflammatory infiltration in the lung tissue and interstitium. Compared with the model group, BD-77 administration groups of 37.5 mg·kg-1 and 75 mg·kg-1 could reduce the mortality of mice, significantly lower the virus titer in the lung tissue of mice (P<0.05), and improve lung lesions. ConclusionBD-77 demonstrated significant inhibitory effects against SARS-CoV-2 virus in vitro and in vivo. However, its mechanism of action did not involve direct inhibition of the virus itself or intervention in the virus-host binding process. This finding suggests that the mechanism of action of BD-77 needs to be thoroughly investigated and elucidated by further experiments.
