Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 1995;0(02):-
Objective To investigate the effects of antioxidant on the gene expression of ?1-adrenergic receptors (AR) during endotoxic shock. Methods Forty male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were anesthetized with intraperitoneal (i.p.) pentobarbital. The animals kept spontaneous breathing. Femoral artery and vein were cannulated for BP monitoring and drug administration. The animals were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 8 each) : (1) control group; (2) LPS group received IPS 15 mg?kg-1 i.v. ; (3) LPS + propofol group received at 1h after LPS a bolus of propofol 10mg?kg-1 i.v. followed by continuous infusion of propofol at 10 mg?kg-1?h-1; (4) LPS + uric acid (UA) group received uric acid 200 mg i.p. 1 h after LPS and (5) LPS + melatonin (MLT) group received MLT 10 mg?kg-1 i.p. 1h after LPS. The animals were killed at 6 h after LPS. Total RNA was extracted from the heart, aorta, vein, lung, liver and kidney. ?1A-,?1B-,?1D- AR mRNA and ?-actin mRNA were measured using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) .Results The expression of ?1A-AR and ?1B-AR mRNA in all the organs and the ?1D-AR mRNA expression in aorta, liver, lung and kidney were strongly down-regulated in LPS group. In group 3 (LPS + propofol) the expression of ?1A-AR mRNA in the lung and kidney, the ?1B-AR mRNA expression in all of the organs and ?1D-AR mRNA expression in aorta, liver, lung and kidney were significantly increased as compared with LPS group. There was no significant difference in ?1-AR mRNA expression between LPS group and LPS + MLT group. The expression of ?1A-AR mRNA in kidney, the ?1B-AR mRNA expression in all of the organs except the lung and the ?1D-AR mRNA expression in aorta, liver, lung and kidney were significantly higher in LPS + UA group than in LPS group. Conclusion Circulatory failure induced by endotoxic shock is related to the down-regulation of ?1-AR gene expression. The therapeutic effects of antioxidant on the endotoxic shock is partly due to up-regulation of ?1-AR gene expression.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies on posterior cervical single door and double door laminoplasty for repair of multilevel cervical myelopathy mainly focus onneurological function and clinical parameters and lack of certain comprehensiveness.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of posterior cervical single door and double door laminoplasty for repair of multilevel cervical myelopathy.
METHODS:We selected 120 patients with multilevel cervical myelopathy and randomly divided into single door group (n=60) and double door group (n=60). The single door group underwent single door laminoplasty. The double door group underwent double door laminoplasty. The blood loss,length of stay, complication rate, neurological function improvement, motion range of cervical vertebrae and imaging changes were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Blood loss was significantly less, length of stay was significantly shorter, and the incidence of axial symptom was significantly reduced in the double door group than in the single door group (alP< 0.05). (2) No significant difference in complication rate such as side leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, hematoma, infection and paralysis was detected between the two groups (P> 0.05). The incidence of axial symptoms was significantly less in the double door group than in the single door group (P< 0.05). (3) There were no significant differences in preoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores, postoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores, and improvement in neurological function between the two groups (P> 0.05). Postoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores were significantly increased as compared with that preoperatively in both groups (P<0.05). (4) No significant difference in motion range of cervical vertebrae, inflexion, extension angle and sagittal diameter of spinal canal was detectable between the two groups (P> 0.05). Motion range of cervical vertebrae, extension angle, and inflexion angle were smaler after treatment compared with that preoperatively in both groups (P< 0.05). The increased degree of sagittal diameter of spinal canal was smaler, and the motion range of cervical vertebrae kept better in the double door group than in the single door group. (5) These results indicate that the effect of double door laminoplasty for repair of multilevel cervical myelopathy was significant. The double door laminoplasty can shorten the length of stay, reduce blood loss, axial symptoms, and loss rate of motion range of the cervical vertebrae. In the clinic, treatment can be carried out according to different indications.

Objective To explore the clinical features of diabetic macular edema (DME) with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and correlation with visual function. Methods Forty-nine eyes from 40 patients with DME (DME group) and 31 eyes from 31 patients without DME (control group) were examined with OCT,pattern reversal visual evoked potentials (P-VEP),macular perimetry. According to proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), 49 eyes with DME were divided into group A (without PDR, 30eyes) and group B (with PDR, 19 eyes). Results The retinal macular thickness of central fovea in DME group [(299.25±63.87)μm] was more than that in contol group [(204.35 ± 37.94)μm], visual acuity and macular visual field in DME group were significantly different than those in control group, respectively (P < 0.05). The retinal macular thickness of central fovea,visual acuity and visual field were no significant differences between group A and group B (P>0.05). OCT macular thickness and visual correlation coefficient was -0.437(P< 0.05 ); OCT macular thickness and mean defect correlation coefficient was 0.441(P < 0.05). Conclusions OCT can provide a useful tool for monitoring the occurrence and development of DME, can assess the response to treatment. With increasing of the macular retinal thickness, the visual acuity and macular visual field of visual function are more damaged.
