Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2008;31(36):21-23
Objective To study the pharmacodynamics features of cisatracurium besylate in differ-ent age patients. Methods One hundred and eighty patients were randomized to group Ⅰ (50-60 years old),group Ⅱ (61-70 years old)and group Ⅲ (above 70 years old).Each group was subdivided according to the dose of cisatracurium besylate, 0.10 mg/kg (2ED95)or 0.15 mg/kg (3ED95) into group Ⅰ2, Ⅰ3, Ⅱ2, Ⅱ3,Ⅲ2, Ⅲ3(n = 30).ECG, SpO2, PETCO2, HR and neuromuscular blockade were monitored. Intubation conditions were assessed when T1 was zero after cisatracurium besylate administer ration using a 4-part scale.The onset time, TOF no reaction time, duration time, recovery lime and hemodynamic response time were recorded. Re-sults The onset times of group Ⅰ3, Ⅱ3 and Ⅲ3 were significantly shorter than those of group Ⅰ2, Ⅱ2 and Ⅲ2 (P < 0.05).The percentages of patients with excellent intubation condition in group Ⅰ3, Ⅱ3 and Ⅲ3 were 93%, 90%, and 80%, which were markedly higher than those in group Ⅰ2, Ⅱ2 and Ⅲ2 (67%, 60%, 60%). TOF no reaction time and duration time were longer in group Ⅰ3, Ⅱ3 and Ⅲ3 than those in group Ⅰ2, Ⅱ2 and Ⅲ2. There was no significant difference in muscle chalasis among the six groups. Conclusions Cisatracuri-um besylate 0.15 mg/kg produces quicker onset time and acceptable intubation conditions in the different age patients than 0.10 mg/kg. Recovery time is independent on the dosage and age. Aging has no influence on the phannacodynamics of single injection of cisatracurium besylate.

Objective To study the effects of the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1?) induced by FasL on the invasiveness of rectal cancer cells. Methods With molecular cloning method, eukaryotic expression vectors of pcDNA3.1 FasL containing total length of FasL cDNA sequence were transfected into human rectal cancer cells HR-8348. The cell invasiveness was examined. A hypoxia model of HR-8348 was reproduced, and its invasiveness was assessed with transwell methodology. Expression of HIF-1? was assayed by Western bloting. Results The number of HR-8348 cells transfected with FasL penetrated transwell filter membrane was larger (12.930?2.434) than that of empty vector transfected cells (7.670?2.093) and control cells (8.133?1.959) with statistically significant differences (P0.05), but it was significantly higher in FasL positive HR-8348 cells than in FasL negative cells at 12h and 24h after hypoxia (P0.05). Conclusions FasL is an effective factor inducing HIF-1? expression, and FasL expression correlates positively with HIF-1? expression. Enhanced FasL expression in rectal cancer cells could induce higher expression of HIF-1?, enable the tumor cells to adapt to hypoxia environment, and enhance the invasiveness of tumor cells.

Objective: Our purpose was to study the predictive factors of interferon(IFN) therapeutic effectiveness. Methods:Genotypes of HCV, HCV RNA quantities, β2 microglobulin, 2′- 5′oligoadenylate synthetase, and peripheral blood lymohocyte subgroup were detected by using specific primer PCR assay, energy transference technique of signal primer, sheet chromatography, radioimmunoassay, and APAAP immunoenzyme bridge technique respectively in 20 blood samples of patients with chronic hepatitis C. Results:(1)The patients who had lower level of HCV RNA before treatment and had continuing decreased HCV RNA level after treatment had good response to IFN treatment in follow-up survey. (2)The patients with HCV-Ⅲ type had complete response much more than those with HCV-Ⅱ type (P<0.05).(3)The patients with lower level of 2′- 5′oligoadenylate synthetase before treatment might have good response to IFN treatment. (4) There was no significant change in β2 microglobulin level before and after treatment and in different response groups before treatment.(5) The CD+3, CD+4, and CD+4/CD+8 in peripheral blood increased after treatment. The patients in complete response group had higher level CD+3, CD+4, and CD+4/CD+8 than those in part response and non-response groups, but there was no significance in statisitcs. Conclusion:The HCV RNA quantities, HCV genotypes, 2′- 5′oligoadenylate synthetase level before treatment were predictive factors of IFN therapeutic effectiveness. The changes of HCV RNA level in treatment and follow-up survey had important significance in therapeutic evaluation, β2 microglobulin level, and lymphocyte subgroup before treatment were not used as predictive factors for IFN therapeutic effectiveness.

Objective To investigate the effects of Huangkui Capsules on oxidative stress and micro-inflammation state in diabetic nephropathy patients with maintenance hemodialysis. Methods Forty-six patients with diabetic nephropathy who had received maintenance hemodialysis for over six month in Gansu Provincial People's Hospital were randomly divided into observation group (23 cases) and treatment group (23 cases) from January to December in 2014. Twenty healthy subjects who had physical examinations were selected as the control group at the same time. Observation group were given conventional hemodialysis for 4 hours, 3 times a week; treatment group were given conventional hemodialysis combined with Huangkui Capsules, orally, 2.5 g each time, 3 times a day. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. Blood was collected before and after treatment for detection of hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), white blood cell (WBC), malondialdehyde (MDA), cycle of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) levels. Results The levels of IL-6, TNF-α, AOPP, WBC, MDA and hs-CRP were significantly higher in the observation group and the treatment group compared with the control group before treatment (P<0.01), SOD and GSH-Px levels decreased (P<0.01); there was no statistical significance between the observation group and the treatment group (P>0.05). After treatment, the levels of IL-6, hs-CRP, MDA and AOPP increased in the observation group (P<0.05), GSH-Px and SOD decreased (P<0.05), there were no statistical significance in TNF-αand WBC (P>0.05);The levels of AOPP, TNF-α, hs-CRP, WBC, MDA and IL-6 in treatment group significantly decreased (P<0.01), GSH-Px and SOD significantly increased (P<0.01); there was statistical significance between the observation group and the treatment group (P<0.01).
