BACKGROUND: It is demonstrated that ropivacaine has less toxicity than bupivacaine, but bupivacaine has higher liposolubility and efficacy, so a less dose of bupivacaine is needed in clinical comparing with ropivacaine. Serious convulsion is usually followed by cardiotoxicity induced by local anesthetics. The ratio of medial lethal dose (CD50) and median convulsant doses (LD50) is usually used to assess the comparative safety of local anesthetics.OBJECTIVE: To establish CD50 and LD50 of 2% lidocaine, 0.75% bupivacaine and 0.75% ropivacaine for Kunming mice and select proper indicator for neurotoxicity, then to compare neurotoxicity of the three local anesthetics on central nervous system.DESIGN: Randomized and controlled study.SETTING: Department of Anesthesiology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: This study was carried out from July to December in 2002 in the Laboratory of Anesthesiology, Tongji Hospital, Tonji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Totally 310Kunming mice aged of 1-month with clean grade were enrolled in this study.METHODS: ① To determine the relation of dose of local anesthetics with conclusion rate and death rate in mice. Todetermine the dose-effect relationship for ropivacaine, 50 mice were selected and divided into 5 groups with 10rates in each group who received dose of 76.80, 68.69, 61.44,49.15, 31.46 mg/kg respectively. For bupivacaine, 90 mice were divided into 9 groups, with 10 rates in each group who received intraperitoneal dose of 50.00, 47.29, 44.72, 42.29, 40.00, 35.78, 32.00, 28.62, 25.60 mg/kg respectively. For lidocaine, 100 mice were divided into 10 groups,with10rates in each group who received dose of 183.11, 163.77, 146.48,131.02, 117.19, 93.75, 75.00, 60.00, 48.00, 38.40 mg/kg respectively. For each local anes thetic, the rates of convulsion or death were tried to distribute on both sides of 50% symmetrically. On the dose-response curve, 4or 5 well-spaced points were obtained for probit analysis to determine CD50 and LD50 of each agent. ② The effect of different dose of lidocaine on conclusion duration and c-fos expression in brain with different doses.Forty mice were divided into 4 groups with 10 rates in each group who received 0, 30%, 60% and 90% convulsant doses of lidocaine intraperitoneally. The duration of convulsion were recorded carefully for the convulsant mice that should be marked correctly for next procedure. Two hours later, the convulsant mice were anesthetized deeply and fixed by transcardiac perfusion for Immunohistochemistry to detect c-Fos expression. ③ Comparison of neurotoxicity induced by CD50 of three agents.Thirty mice were randomly divided into 3 groups with 10 rates in each group who received intraperitoneally CD50 of lidocaine, bupivacaine and ropivacaine respectively. The duration of convulsion and the number of neurons expressed with c-Fos in mice brain were compared among these three groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The response of mice to intraperitoneal local anesthestics, duration of convusion and c-Fos expression using immunohistochemistry methods.RESULTS: Date of totally 310 mice was entered into final results analysis. ① The relation of dose of local anesthetics and conclusion rate or death rate in mice. The therapeutic index (LD50/CD50) of 2% lidocaine,0.75% bupivacaine and 0.75% ropivacaine were 2.89, 1.48 and 1.34, respectively. ② c-Fos expression induced by lidocaine in mice brain: The cFos expression in mice brain was mainly distributed in three zones-thalamencephal, hypothalamus, amydyla and pyriform cortex. ③ Compare of the duration of convulsion and number of neurons with c-Fos expression induced by different dose oflidocaine. Compared with control group, the duration of convulsion and number of neurons with c-Fos expression in amydyla and pyriform cortex all increased significantly in CD30, CD60and CD90 group (P < 0.05). ④ Neurotoxicity induced by CD50 of lidoacaine, bupivacaine and ropivacasine The duration of convulsion and expression of c-fos in amydyla and pyriform cortex were significantly increased in ropivacaine group compared to bupivacaine or lidocaine group intraperitoneally (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the duration of convulsion and expression of c-Fos between lidocaine and bupivacaine group (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Compared with bupivacaine, ropivacaine produced less toxicity when identical dose was used in clinic. It is indicated that if an accidental convulsion induced by ropivacaine, it may be more severe than that induced by correspondent either lidocaine or bupivacaine. It may be the reason that ropivacaine have less lipid solubility, absorbed easily from this tissue compartment, and to get a high concentration in blood.

Objective: To explore the prevalence of depression in junior school students and its relationship with potential psychological and environmental factors. Method:Depressive symptoms, self-esteem, life events, social support, family cohesion and conflict were investigated with self-report questionnaire in 300 junior school students, the relationship between depression and other psychological or environmental factors were analyzed through stepwise regression. Results:The prevalence of depression in junior high school students was 11%. Among the 5 investigated psychological and environmental factors, self-esteem and social support were negatively related with depression (standardized regression coefficient were -0.59 and -0.14), while life events positively related with it(standardized regression coefficient was 0.26). Only "academic pressure" and another factors covering the item "do not want to go to school" showed a negative association with the students' self-esteem among the 6 factors included in the life events questionnaire (standardized regression coefficient were -0.149 and -0.13).Conclusion: Depression is common among junior school students. Poor self-esteem, lack of social support and negative life events are currently related with the development of adolescent depression. The pressure and failing experiences coming from academic activities are the most influential life events to the development of adolescents' self-esteem.

Controlling serum phosphorus levels is critical in patients with renal failure. Currently phosphate-binding agents are widely used to reduce phosphate absorption in patients with endstage renal disease. If possible,serum phosphorus level should be reduced without disturbing calcium homeostasis or increasing accumulation of potentially toxic elements. Aluminum hydroxide and traditional calcium -based phosphate binders are commonly used to control serum phosphorus level. Aluminum hydroxide can effectively lower serum phosphorus level,but aluminum can accumulates in the body and results in toxic effect. Traditional calcium-based phosphate binders tend to promote hypercalcemia and calcium overloading,and accelerate cardiovascular calcification. Therefore aluminum -free and calcium-free phosphate-binding agents have become the focus of study; however,agents like sevelamer hydrochloride and lanthanum carbonate are not widely used due to high price,although they are effective in controlling serum phosphorus level. New generation of phosphate binders,such as colestilan,nicotinic acid and magnesium salt,are cheaper than their previous counterparts,but their long -term effect still needs to be observed. This article summarizes the progress of non-calcium phosphate binders in treatment of end-stage renal diseases,hoping to help clinical drug usage.
