Herald of Medicine 2001;(5):295-
Objective: To improve the safety of anesthesia of the neonates at high risk during surgical operation. Methods:Before the operation, Anisodamine, Ketamine and Vecuronium bromide were injected intravenously with dosage of 0.06mg, 2mg*kg-1 and 0.08-0.1mg*kg-1, respectively. Tracheal cannula or topical anesthesia using 1% of lidocaine hydrochloride was performed. The tracheal cannulation was performed after administration of sodium hydroxybutyrate and Ketamine by injection with dosages of 50-80 mg*kg-1 and 2mg*kg-1 body weight. Anesthesia apparatus and combinative anesthesia were used. The concentrations of SpO2 were monitored during the operation. A dosage of 1-2mg*kg-1 body weight was used for resuscination of the patients after the operation. Results: A total of 100 cases of operation were performed using the regime of anesthetic intervention described above. A 100% of success rate was achieved and no death occurred during the operation. Conclusion:Significant improvement of safety in anesthesia of the neonates at high risk during surgical operation can be achieved with sufficient preoperational preparation, adequate monitoring during the operation and rational use of anesthetics as well as restrict selection of suitable anesthetical interventions.

Objective To investigate the imaging and biodistribution of 99Tcm labeled peptide ( phage-SHSWHWLPNLRHYAS) high-binding VEGF receptor 3 in nude mice with ovarian cancer. Methods We used NHS-MAG3 as the bifunctional chelating agent and synthesized the peptide above. It was completed with pre-stannous direct labeling by 99Tcm and then the labeling efficiency was determined by paper chromatography. The tumor bearing mice were injected via tail veins with radiolabeled peptide. The tumors were imaged with single photon emission computed tomography ( SPECT) . We measured and calculated the biodistribution of the radiolabeled peptide. Results The labeled rate was 95. 27% and the radiochemical purity was 96% . Under a SPECT apparatus,we observed tumor location image at 1 h post injection and the tumor images was the clearest at 3 h post injection,with the injected dose per gram of tissue ( % ID/g) of ( 30. 20 ? 6. 89) at the tumor sites. The tumor/muscle ratio was 13. 13. Conclusion Our peptide can accumulate in the tumor masses. It is hopeful to be used as an ovarian cancer targeting vector for diagnosis and therapy of the cancer.

Objective To observe the role of chronic inflammation in the development of atherosclerosis (AS) by analyzing the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB in artery endothelium. Methods To construct the atherosclerotic animal model, the balloon catheter was used to injure common carotid artery and rabbits were fed the high cholesterol diet. All the rabbits were divided into three groups: control group with the normal diet, high cholesterol diet-fed group and model group (balloon-injured common carotid artery and the high cholesterol diet fed rabbits). The rabbits were sacrificed after 8 weeks and their tissues were collected. Then morphological changes of rabbit common carotid artery were observed by light microscope. The expression of TLR4 and NF-κB in endarterium was displayed using immunochemistry method. Results Both hyperlipidemia and exterior inflammatory stimulation promoted the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB in vascular endothelium (P < 0.01 ). And when both of them were present, the level of TLR4 and NF-κB expression would get higher even than that affected by one of them( P < 0.01 ). Conclusion Both hyperlipidemia and chronic inflammatory process can improve the expression of TLR4 and NF- κB in vascular endothelium in different degree; the inflammatory stimulation would promote the atherosclerosis to some extent; TLR4/ NF-κB would play a role as a bridge between the internal environment changes and the arterial morphological changes.

Objective To evaluate and compare the cellular immune response induced by live at-tenuated and inactivated hepatitis A vaccines. Methods A total of 18 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. They were divided randomly into 2 groups and injected by inactivated hepatitis A vaccine and at-tenuated hepatitis A vaccine, respectively. All volunteers' heparinized venous blood was separately collected for testing anti-HAV antibody and the responses of PBMC. The level of IFN-γsecreted by effect T cell was tested by ELISPOT. The percentage of lymphocytes secreting IFN-γ from CD+ and CD8+ T cell was tested by intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) technique. The concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-10 and IL-4 in the culture supernatants(grown in the presence or absence of HAV) of the in vitro HAV-primed PBMC were determined by Luminex. Results These two types of vaccines can elicit specific anti-HAY antibodies and no statistical significance between them were observed. At the early stage after inoculation, T cell-mediated immune responses with the secretion of IFN-γ were detected in vaccines inoculated with either type of vac-cines. There was a tendency that the cellular immune responses level induced by inactivated hepatitis A vac-cine was higher than that by live attenuated hepatitis A vaccine during 1 to 3 weeks post-injection. The booster inoculation could significantly increase the level of cellular immune responses induced by the inacti-vated vaccine. Conclusion Both live attenuated and inactivated HAV vaccines can elicit an earlier specific humoral and cellular immune responses, and booster inoculation of inactivated HAV vaccine can rapidly and intensively evoke memory immune responses.

Objective To assess the efficacy of ganciclovir to prevent and cure cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after renal transplantation. Methods We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, SCI, China Academic Journals Full-text Databases, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Chinese Scientific Journals Databases and Chinese Medical Association Journals to collect randomized controlled trials of ganciclovir to prevent and cure CMV infection after renal transplantation (up to June, 2009). Two reviewers extracted data independently using a designed extraction form. The quality of included trials was evaluated according to the Cochrane Handbook. RevMan 5.0 software was used for data analysis. Results Twelve randomized controlled trials were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: ①Compared with no receive antiviral agents, ganciclovir couldn't lower CMV infection rate and disease rate in 3 months and 6 months after renal transplantation, but could lower CMV disease rate in 12 months. The delay between transplantation and CMV infection was significantly longer. ②Either valaciclovir or ganciclovir could lower CMV infection rate and disease rate after renal transplantation, without statistical difference. ③Compared with acyclovir, ganciclovir could lower CMV disease rate in 6 months after renal transplantation. ④Compared with CMV-IgG and valganciclovir, ganciclovir didn't have statistical difference in decreasing CMV disease rate (P=0.93;P=0.14). Conclusions Longer prophylaxis by ganciclovior may prevent CMV infection after renal transplantation. Its curative effect is similar to valaciclovir, CMV-IgG and valganciclovir, but better than acyclovir.
