Leukocytes from peripheral blood of 70 normal Chinese,40 males and 30 females, were cultured in vitro according to a modification of Moorhead's method.Chromosome studies were carried out.Table I lists the results obtained including age group,metaphase plates counted and analysed and the chromosome number of each cell.92.4 per cent of 8031 counted cells had the diploid number(2n=46).Chromosome measurements were made from camera lucida drawings.Measurements were estimated to the nearest 0.1 mm on a fine metric scale.The relative length,arm ratio and centromere index of each chromosome were calculated from measurements of 18 haploid chromosome sets of 11 metaphase plates in 6 males and 4 females.The averages,range of variation and 99% confidence limits are listed in Table Ⅲ.Systematic studies of individual chromosomes under the light microscope revealed the following morphological characteristics.The short arms of all 10 acrocentric chromosomes from groups 13—15 and 21—22 could be shown to possess satellites,but in general only 2—8 of these chromosomes at a time carried satellites.In many cells the satellite-carrying chromosomes tended to associate with each other through their satellites.The number of chromosomes involved in each association varied between 2 to 5,occasionally 6.It was not rare to find secondary constrictions to occur regularly in certain regions of chromosomes 1,4,9,13,and 16.Attachments of satellites to such regions of chromosomes 1,4,9,and 13 were also observed.Karyotypic analysis of 357 metaphase plates led us to conclude that in most cases the unequivocal identification of chromosome pairs 4—5,6—12+X,13—15,19—20,and 21—22 was im- possible.Accurate characterisation of these chromosome pairs will have to await further technical advances. The length of the Y chromosomes was systematically measured in order to deter- mine its variability and heritability.Among our sample of 40 male subjects 29 had a Y chromosome slightly larger than chromosome 21,8 slightly smaller or larger than chromo- some 18(long Y chromosome),and 3 smaller than chromosome 21(short Y chromo- some).The heritability of the size of the Y chromosome was established(Fig.Ⅳ). “Spontaneous”aberrations were discovered in 34 of 70 cases.Aberration rates varied from 0.88 to 13 per cent.The relation between aberrations and radiation injuries was briefly discussed.

Objective To evaluate the effect of infiltration anesthesia at Calot's triangle on postoperative analgesia in the patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods One hundred and forty patients,aged 18-64 yr,with 18 kg/m2 ≤ body mass index ≤ 31 kg/m2,of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =70 each):control group (group A) and infiltration anesthesia at Calot's triangle group (group B).In group B,1％ ropivacaine 10 ml was injected into Calot's triangle before dissection of the gallbladder,while the equal volume of normal saline was injected into Calot's triangle in group A.The patients in both groups received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) for 48 h starting from 10 min before the end of surgery.The VAS score was maintained below 4 during PCIA.When VAS score ≥ 4,lasting for more than 30 min,tramadol 1.5 mg/kg was injected intravenously.The consumption of physic liquor for PCIA,and requirement for tramadol were recorded.The incidence of puncture-related damage to Calot's triangle and local anesthetic intoxication and adverse effects such as nausea and vomiting within 48 h after surgery were also recorded.The first postoperative flatus time was recorded.Results Compared with group A,the consumption of physic liquor for PCIA,requirement for tramadol,and consumption of tramadol were significantly reduced,and no significant change was found in the incidence of nausea and vomiting and the first postoperative flatus time in group B.No puncture-related damage to Calot's triangle occurred in A and B groups.There was no local anesthetic intoxication in group B.Conclusion Infiltration anesthesia at Calot's triangle can optimize postoperative analgesia in the patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Objective To evaluate the effect of alveolar recruitment maneuver on the perioperative pulmonary function in the morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.Methods Forty morbidly obese patients of both sexes,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,aged 18-64 yr,with body mass index ≥ 40 kg/m2,scheduled for elective laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy,were randomly divided into either control group (group C) or alveolar recruitment maneuver group (group R) using a random number table,with 20 patients in each group.Patients in group C were treated with volume-or pressure-controlled ventilation after creation of pneumoperitoneum,maintaining the peak inspiratory pressure (Ppeak) ≤ 30 cmH2O and partial pressure of end-tidal CO2 35-40 mmHg.Patients in group R received alveolar recruitment maneuver once every 30 min starting from creation of pneumoperitoneum until the end of surgery.Patients were transfered to post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) with endotracheal tube which was extubated when the unified extubation standard was achieved in PACU.The patients who stayed in PACU for 2 h showing no indications for extubation were transfered to intensive care unit for continuous ventilation support.Immediately after intubation,immediately after creation of pneumoperitoneum,at 30,60 and 90 min of pneumoperitoneum,and at the end of pneumoperitoneum,blood samples were collected from the radial artery for blood gas analysis.Immediately after intubation,immediately after creation of pneumoperitoneum,at 30,60 and 90 min of pneumoperitoneum,at the end of surgery,and immediately before discharge from PACU,Ppeak,plateau pressure (Peat),and dynamic lung compliance were recorded.The time for achieving extubation standard and time for achieving the standard for discharge from PACU were recorded.Patients were followed up until discharge,and the feeding time and duration of hospital stay were recorded.Results Compared with group C,PaO2 and oxygenation index were significantly increased at 90 min of pneumoperitoneum,at the end of surgery,and immediately before discharge from PACU,Ppeak was decreased at 60 and 90 min of pneumoperitoneum and immediately after the end of pneumoperitoneum,Pplat was decreased at 60 and 90 min of pneumoperitoneum,the dynamic lung compliance was increased at 30,60 and 90 min of pneumoperitoneum and immediately after the end of pneumoperitoneum,and the time for achieving extubation standard,time for achieving the standard for discharge from PACU,feeding time,and duration of hospital stay were shortened in group R (P＜0.05 or 0.01).In group C,one patient did not present with indications for extubation and were transfered to intensive care unit for continuous ventilation support.Conclusion Intraoperative alveolar recruitment maneuver can effectively improve the intraoperative pulmonary function and promote the recovery of postoperative pulmonary function in the morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupoint thread-embedding in treating premature ovarian failure.Method By following the visiting or admission sequence, 35 patients were randomized into a treatment group (acupoint thread-embedding group) and a control group (Western medication group). The therapeutic efficacy, and the levels of follicle stimulation hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and estradiol (E2) before and after the treatment were observed.Result After the treatment, the recovery rate and total effective rate were respectively 44.4% and 72.2% in the treatment group, significantly different from 0.0% and 52.9% in the control group (P<0.05). The level of serum E2increased significantly in both groups after the treatment (P<0.01); the serum FSH dropped significantly in both groups with a more significant efficacy in the treatment group, and the change after the treatment was extremely statistically significant in the treatment group (P<0.01) and the change after the treatment in the control group was statistically significant (P<0.05); after the treatment, the serum LH presented a tendency to decline but without a statistical significance (P>0.05).Conclusion Acupoint thread-embedding can produce a satisfactory efficacy in treating premature ovarian failure.

Objective To investigate the relationship between tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in ischemic brain tissue and bran edema after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats.Methods Eighty four male SD rats were randomly assigned to either a cerebral ischemia reperfusion group (n =44) or a sham-operation group (n =40). A model of middle cerebral artery occlusion for 120 minutes followed by reperfusion was induced in rats using the suture method. The infarct size was determined by 2, 3, 5-triphenyi terazoloride (TTC) staining at 6 h,24 h, 3 d, and 7 d respectively after the reperfusion. Dry-wet weight method was used to measure brain water content and evaluate the extent of brain edema. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the concentration of TNF-α in ischemic brain tissue. Results TNF-α level in ischemic brain tissue was increased at 6 h (445.8 ±91.7 pg/ml) after the reperfusion, and reached the peak at day 3 (715.5 ±121.3 pg/ml). There were significant differences compared to the sham-operation group and other time points (all P＜0.001). After that, it was decreased gradually, but it was still higher than that in the shamoperation group at day 7 (478.1 ± 145.5 pg/ml vs. 148.5 ± 101.7 pg/ml, P＜0.005). The initial change of the water content in brain tissue lagged behind the increased TNF-α. It did not increase significantly until 24 h after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (P ＜0.001). It reached the peak at day 3 (P ＜0.001), and it was still higher than that in the control group at day 7 (P ＜0.05). The evolution of cerebral infarct volume was in accordance with the changes of TNF-α level. Conclusions TNF-α is associated with the changes of brain edema and infarct volume,and it is harmful to brain tissue.

The efficiency of cold storage red blood cells (CSRBC) or whole blood at -80 degrees C used in 27 Rh (D) negative patients during surgical operation was reported. The Rh (D) negative patients received the transfusion of CSRBC or whole blood stored at -80 degrees C for 180 to 360 days. The changes in the indexes, such as blood TB, DB, K+, Na+, BUN, Cr, urine protein (URPO), UOB, Hb, HCT, serum total protein, relative to hemolytic reaction and blood volume before and after transfusion were observed. The results showed that after transfusion of CSRBC or whole blood 27 cases were negative for urine protein and UOB, and the levels of BUN and Cr were normal (P > 0.05). Blood TB, DB, Hb, and HCT were increased, while pH, blood K+ and blood Na+ was normal with the difference being not significant before and after operation (P > 0.05). Plasma protein was decreased, but there was no significant difference before and after operation (P > 0.05). It was suggested that CSRBC or whole blood at -80 degrees C could be safely infused to the Rh(D) negative patients without side effects during the surgical operation.
