Objective To observe the variation of cerebral brain flow (CBF)and pathological characteristics in peripheral brain tissue of nidus after operation of brain arterivenous malformations (BAVM) and explore the mechanism and theaputic strategy of normal perfusion pressure breakdown (NPPB)after microsurgery. Methods 12 cases of BAVM that have received surgical resection were analyzed prospectively, and 8 cases of them were embolized with Onyx. The pathological characteristics of the nidus and peripheral brain tissue was observed with microscope and electron microscope. The variation of CBF in peripheral brain tissue of the nidus following microsurgical resection was observed by using Laser Doppuler Perfusion Imaging (LDPI) system. The monitering result of CBF in little meniugioma(n=6) during surgery was used as the control. Results There was small vessel expantion, neuron necrosis, gliocyte hyperplasia and blood brain barriar (BBB) destruction in peripheral brain tissue of BAVM nidus, the visibal brain tissue edema and inflammatory cell infiltration in peripheral brain tissue of the nidus and the revascularization in the emolized nidus vessels were observed after embolization with Onyx. There was significant change of CBF between pre-and post-operation (P<0.05),and after controlling depressurization during surgery was the increasing CBF step down (P<0.05). Conclusion The BBB breakdown and increasing CBF of peripheral brain tissue of the nidus may be the pathological foundation of brain hemorrhage and edema after BAVM microsurgical resection. So embolization before the operation, controlling depressuriation during and after surgery is the important methods for preventing and curing the NPPB of BAVM after microsurgery.

Objective·To analyze the choice of smoking cessation methods and its influencing factors in moderate-to-severe nicotine-dependent population.Methods·A retrospective clinical analysis was conducted for170 moderate-to-severe nicotine-dependent smoking-quitters (Fagerstr(o)m scale ≥ 4).Different smoking cessation methods (pharmacotherapy and non-pharmacotherapy) and abstinence rates of the selected population (7 d point prevalence abstinence rates and sustained abstinence rates 1,3,and 6 months after treatment) were compared and possible influencing factors were analyzed.Results·The differences in choosing the smoking cessation method in moderate-to-severe nicotine-dependent population with different ages,levels of education,and employment status were statistically significant (P=0.000).The Logistics regression analysis showed that the level of education was the major factor for choosing the smoking cessation method (P=0.006).The 7 d prevalence abstinence rate was much lower for pharmacotherapy than for non-pharmacotherapy 1 month after treatment (P=0.000) and was much higher for pharmacotherapy than for non-pharmacotherapy 3 and 6 months after treatment (P=0.000).The sustained abstinence rate was much higher for pharmacotherapy than for non-pharmacotherapy 3 and 6 months after treatment (P=0.002,P=0.000).Conclusion·For moderate-to-severe nicotine-dependent smoking-quitters,attention should be paid to the formulation and implementation of personalized strategies.The choice of smoking cessation methods depends on the age,level of education,and employment status.Reasonable pharmacotherapies can significantly increase the abstinence rate.

Aim To investigate the effect of p38 MAPK AS-ODNs on the expression of GLT-1 during the induction of brain ischemic tolerance induced by cerebral ischemic preconditioning (CIP).Methods Eighty healthy male Wistar rats with permanent occlusion of the bilateral vertebral arteries were randomly divided into 6 groups: ①Sham group (n=10);②CIP group (n=10);③ischemic insult (Ⅱ) group (n=10);④CIP+Ⅱ group (n=10);⑤p38 MAPK AS-ODNs+CIP+Ⅱ group (n=30);⑥p38 MAPK S-ODNs+CIP+Ⅱ group (n=10).Group ⑤ was divided into 5 nmol, 10 nmol and 15 nmol subgroups according to the dose of p38 MAPK AS-ODNs (n=10).The dose of p38 MAPK S-ODNs was 15 nmol.All the rats were sacrificed 6 h and 2 d after the sham operation or the last time of global brain ischemia reperfusion.Western blot and immunohistochemistry analysis were used for detecting the expression of p-p38 MAPK and GLT-1 protein.Results CIP moderately up-regulated the expression of p-p38 MAPK and significantly up-regulated the expression of GLT-1 protein, inhibited the excessively up-regulation of p-p38 MAPK and the down-regulation of GLT-1 induced by ischemic insult.p38 MAPK AS-ODNs significantly inhibited the up-regulation of p-p38 MAPK and GLT-1 protein in a dose-dependent manner during the induction of brain ischemic tolerance by CIP.Conclusion p38 MAPK AS-ODNs inhibit the up-regulation of GLT-1 during the induction of brain ischemic tolerance induced by CIP.

Objective To explore the molecular basis of the characteristics of the serum auto-fluorescent spectrum in patients with ovarian cancer and the changes that might be induced by surgery. Methods Using fluorospectrophotometer and 300nm excitation light,the serum auto-fluorescent spectrum of 84 patients with ovarian cancer before and after the surgery and 30 healthy people were detected. Meanwhile, the serum tumor signs (CEA, CA199 and CA125), hemoglobin and plasma albumin level of all patients with ovarian cancer were detected. Their correlation with the fluorescence spectral characteristic parameters were analyzed. Results Compared with healthy people, the serum auto-fluorescent spectrum in patients with ovarian cancer exhibited purple-shifted position of λ2 peak and red shift in λ4 peak,had higher peak extent inλ1, λ2, λ4 and λ6 peak, and larger peak area of λ1, λ2, λ3, λ4 and λ6. Compared with those in ovarian cancer patients before surgery, the serum auto-fluorescent spectrum in these patients after operation had red shifts in λ1, λ2 and λ3 peak, lower peak extent in λ1, λ2, λ3 and λ4, and smaller peak area in λ1, λ2, λ3,λ4 and λ6 peak. In ovarian cancer patients, the serum level of CEA was positively correlated with the λ2 peak extent and the peak area of λ2 and λ3, while the serum level of CA125 was positively correlated with the peak extent of λ1-λ4 and λ6 and the peak area of λ1-λ3. The serum level of CA199 was negatively correlated with the λ2 position and positively correlated with the peak extent of λ1-λ6 and the peak area ofλ1-λ3 and λ6 in patents with ovarian cancer. Besides, the serum albumin was positively correlated with theλ2 peak position and negatively with the peak extent of λ1-λ6 and the λ1-λ3 peak area, while the level of hemoglobin was positively correlated with λ1 peak position. Conclusions The elevated serum tumor markers and lower albumin (plasma) level lead to the changes of the serum autofluorescence spectra characteristic parametersin in patients with ovarian cancer.These changes can be modestly corrected by surgery.

Objective To perform facial nerve monitoring in patients under the low level of neuromuscular blockade during resection of acoustic neurinomas.Methods Twenty-eight patients with large,or medium acoustic neuroma underwent the surgery of acoustic neurinomas resection. During the operation,TOF and EEG monitoring were performed in order to detect the degree of muscle relaxation and the depth of anesthesia. Neuromuscular relaxation was maintained at T_4/T_1=25%～50% by adjusting doses of muscle relaxant and aneasthetic. Free-run EMG and Triggered EMG of orbicularis oris, orbicularis oculi, masseter and trapezius were recordered to monitor the function of the facial, trigeminal and accessory nerves, respectively. The function of the facial nerve was evaluated at first week and half year postoperatively according to House-brackmann classification.Results The facial never was successfully identified and mapped by neurominitoring in all 28 patients. successfully, tThe electrical stimulation was 0.1 mA-0.3 mA and no any involuntary body movement was observed in all patients ne of patients have moved during operation. The preservation of the facial nerve function following surgery was good. Five patients had a HB grade I, 13 a HB grade II, 8 a grade III and 2 a HB grade IV The facial nerve function was HB Grade Ⅰin 5 of 28 patients, HB GradeⅡ in 13, HB Grade Ⅲ in 8 and HB Grade Ⅳ in 2 immediately after operation. Six months after surgery, 10 casespatents showed demonstrated a HB GradeⅠof facial never function, 12 cases exhibited a slight palsy (HB Grade II) , and 5 cases exhibited a HB Grade III palsy and . Another 1 cases a exhibited severe palsy (HB Grade IV).Conclusions Facial nerve monitoring in patients under the low level of neuromuscular blockade can ensure the surgical safety and preserve the facial never function.
