Objective To investigate the expression of CEA, NSE and CYFRA21-1 in lung cancer, and the significance of combined determination of three tumor markers in the detection of lung cancer. Methods CEA, NSE and CYFRA21-1 levels in serum of 65 patients with lung cancer, 50 patients with benign lung diseases and 38 normal adults were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The association of CYFRA21-1, NSE, and CEA level with the type of lung cancer in pathology were also studied. Results In comparison, the serum levels of CEA, CYFRA21-1 were increased more obviously in patients with lung cancer than that of patients with benign lung diseases and the normal adults (P<0.01). The levels of serum and the sensitivity of CEA, NSE and CYFRA21-1 were related to pathology type. The sensitivity and specificity increased by combined measurement of CEA, NSE, and CYFRA21-1. Conclusion These findings suggest that the serum CEA, NSE and CYFRA21-1 levels is increased in patients with lung cancer, and the increasing extents is not same in lung cancer with different pathology types. CEA, NSE and CYFRA21-1 are significant in adjuvant diagnosis of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of combined detection of H‐FABP with cTnI in the diagnosis of myo‐cardial damage caused by hypoglycemia .Methods Levels of blood H‐FABP and cTnI were examined at 0 to 3 h ,24 h ,48 h after hy‐poglycemia diagnosed ,and were compared with the control group .The levels of H‐FABP and cTnI at 24 h after hypoglycemia diag‐nosed were compared among different groups separated according to the decreasing extent of blood sugar (1 .0 to 2 .1 mmol/L ,<1 .0 mmol/L group) ,the duration of hypoglycemia (< 24 h ,≥ 24 h group) and clinical feature of hypoglycemia (symptom and no symptom group) .The sensitivity and specificity of H‐FABP and cTnI in myocardial damage was also statistical analyzed in this study .

Objective To monitor the levels of NO and IL-18 in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), to explore the relation of NO, IL-18 and HIE. Methods HIE infants admitted in our hospital from January to Novermber of 2007 were taken as observation group and normal neonates were chosen as control group. In each group,the concentrations of NO and IL-18 were tested on 1 day,3 days,7 days and 14 days. Results On the first day after birth,the levels of serum NO and IL-18 in control group were (6.40±4.24) μmol/L and (2.84± 2.53)ng/L,in mild HIE group were (21.55±7.23) μmoL/L and (6.79±1.96) ng/L,in moderate HIE group were (33.38±2.81) μmol/L and (14.07±2.91) ng/L,in severe HIE group were (66.39±18.03) μmoL/L and (26.85±9.82) ng/L. The levels of serum NO and IL-18, in HIE groups were higher than those in control group (P<0.01), were much higher in patients with moderate and severe HIE than those with mild HIE (P<0.01). On 14 days,the levels of serum No and IL-18 were not different in moderate HIE groups and those in the control group (P>0.05), butwere higher in the severe HIE groups than those in the control group [NO and IL-8 level: (5.38± 4.79) μmol/L and (2.39±1.41) ng/L in control group and (24.89±9.43) μmol./L and (13.43±3.23) ng/L in severe HIE group(P<0.01)]. Conclusion NO and IL-18 are involved in the whole course of HIE, which are correlated with the severity of condition. They may be acted as indicators in monitoring pationts' conditon.

Objective To investigate the difference of nerve behavior among the different types of fullterm small for gestational age infants(SGA) infants and the reasons.Methods The neonatal behavioral neurological assessment(NBNA) scores were given for 148 full-term SGA infants aged 7,14 and 28 days born in Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University.The comparason analysis was conducted among three types including symmetic,asymmetric and the mixture of them.Results Significant differences (P ＜ 0.05) were found between the NBNA scores for full-term SGA infants and normal infants.The NABA scores of full-term SGA infants were lower than those of normal infants.The NBNA scores for three types of full-term SGA infants followed the order of asymmetric ＞ symmetric ＞ mixture of them,significant difference was found between any two types of three types(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Full-term SGA infants show the poorer quality of nerve behavior compared with the nomal infants.The neurodevelopment levels for three types of full-term SGA infants are asymmetric,symmetric,mixture of them in the order.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of glycogen phosphorylase BB (GPBB) and heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) in the early diagnosis of neonatal myocardial injury (NMI). Methods The GPBB and H-FABP levels in the blood were detected at 3, 6, 12 and 24 h after onset of the NMI. The GPBB and H-FABP levels were compared among NMI, Non-NMI and control groups. The NMI diagnosis sensitivity and specificity for GPBB, H-FABP, GPBB combined with H-FABP were compared. The relationships of GPBB, H-FABP levels with the risk factors were analyzed. Results The GPBB and H-FABP levels of NMI group were higher than those of Non-NMI and control groups (P < 0.01). The diagnosis sensitivity of four time points (3, 6, 12 and 24 h) of combined GPBB and H-FABP were higher than those of the GPBB and H-FABP (P < 0.05). The GPBB and H-FABP were negatively correlated with blood glucose level, positively correlated with asphyxia degree and septicemia degree. Conclusion The combined application of GPBB and H-FABP can improve sensitivity in the early diagnosis of NMI.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects and safety of erythropoietin on nerve function and brainstem auditory evoked potential in the preterm children with brain damage. METHODS:46 preterm children with brain damage were randomly di-vided into treatment group and control group,with 23 cases in each group. Control group received conventional symptomatic treat-ment as respiratory support,nutritional support,vitamin K supplement and ganglioside. Treatment group was additionally given rhE-PO for injection (CHO cell) 500 IU/kg hypodermically,3 times a week,on the basis of control group. Both group received 3-4 weeks of treatment continuously. MDI,PDI,the content of serum nerve injury factor(NSE,S-100β),latent period and peak inter-val of brainstem auditory evoked potential were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment,and the occurrence of ADR was observed in 2 groups. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in MDI,PDI,the content of serum nerve injury mole-cule,latent period and peak interval of brainstem auditory evoked potential between 2 groups before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment,MDI and PDI of 2 groups increased significantly,while the content of serum nerve injury factor,latent period and peak interval of brainstem auditory evoked potential decreased significantly;the treatment group was better than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Erythropoietin can significantly im-prove intelligence development,protect the damaged nerve cells and auditory nerve pathways with good safety.

Objective:To evaluate the modified efficacy of thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) combined with general anesthesia in the patients undergoing laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.Methods:Eighty patients, aged 38-64 yr, with body mass index of 18-24 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, scheduled for elective laparoscopic radical nephrectomy, were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups ( n=40 each) using a random number table method: general anesthesia group (group GA) and TPVB combined with general anesthesia group (group TPVB+ GA). A paravertebral catheter was placed at T 8 and T 10 under ultrasound guidance before induction of anesthesia, and 0.5% ropivacaine 10 ml was administered via the catheter in group TPVB+ GA.Anesthesia was induced with propofol, sufentanil, etomidate and rocuronium and maintained by intravenous infusion of propofol and remifentanil.Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was performed with sufentanil, ketorolac tromethamine and tropisetron at the end of surgery.When postoperative visual analog scale score≥4, tramadol 50 mg was intravenously injected as rescue analgesic.Immediately before anesthesia induction (T 0), at 5 min after establishing pneumoperitoneum (T 1), at 2 h of pneumoperitoneum (T 2), and immediately after the end of pneumoperitoneum (T 3), and at 24 h after operation (T 4), venous blood samples were collected for determination of plasma norepinephrine concentrations (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), plasma cortisol level (using radioimmunoassay), and blood glucose concentrations were measured.The intraoperative consumption of sufentanil and remifentanil was recorded.The intraoperative hypertension, hypotension, and bradycardia were recorded, and the nausea and vomiting, pruritus, and requirement for rescue analgesia occurred within 24 h after surgery were recorded. Results:Compared with group GA, the plasma concentrations of norepinephrine, cortisol and blood glucose were significantly decreased at T 1-4, the intraoperative consumption of sufentanil and remifentanil was reduced, and the postoperative requirement for rescue analgesia was decreased in group TPVB+ GA ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:TPVB combined with general anesthesia is helpful in carrying out the anesthetic model of low-consumption opioids and is more helpful in inhibiting intraoperative and postoperative stress responses and postoperative pain responses than general anesthesia alone when used for laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.
