For investigating the effectiveness and safety of oral sodium phosphate in preparation for colonoscopy,108 cases from both outpatient and inpatient clinics from June,1995 to March,1996 were randomized and blinded to receive either oral sodium phosphate or standardized electrolyte lavage solu- tion as control.The questionaire was designed for scoring by patients and doctors regarding to its toler- ance,taste,side effects and cleaning degree etc.Results showed that the tolerance rates in oral sodium phosphate and electrolyle lavage were 87.5% and 69.2% and the rates of preference in using them were 32.2% and 15.4% respectively(P

Objective To compare the cerebral protection effect of unilateral and bilateral antegrade selective cerebral perfusion during total aortic arch replacement. Methods From June 2003 to March 2004, 16 patients undergoing total aortic arch replacement were divided into two groups, randomized: unilateral antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (unilateral group, n=8) and bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion (bilateral group, n=8). Preoperative and postoperative brain CT scan were performed. During the operation, the pressure in innominate artery and left common carotid artery were monitored. Blood gas samples were drawn from jugular venous bulb. Results There was no postoperative death and all patients were discharged from hospital. No new brain infarction occurred. Transient neurological dysfunction occurred in 1 patient of each group. In unilateral group, the pressure in innominate artery was higher than that in left common carotid artery during antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (P0.05). Conclusion Both methods of brain protection for patients undergoing total aortic arch replacement resulted in favorable levels of mortality and morbidity. The circle of Willis was patent and collateral flow was adequate. Unilateral antegrade selective cerebral perfusion has the advantage of simplicity. The bilateral perfusion pressure was more even in bilateral antegrade selective cerebral perfusion, and whether bilateral antegrade selective cerebral perfusion carry a higher risk of embolism need further investigation.

The present experiment was to study the effect of stromal cell infusion on hematopoietic recovery after peripheral blood stem cell transplantation in mice. BALB/c mice pre conditioned with high dose chemotherapy/radiotherapy were infused with peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCT group) or a combination of peripheral blood stem cells and bone marrow stromal cells (experimental group). Four week survival rate, white blood cell (WBC) count, bone marrow nucleated cells (BMNC), granulocyte macrophage colony forming units (GM CFU), fibroblast colony forming units (F CFU) were determined. The results showed that survival rate, BMNC, GM CFU, and F CFU were significantly higher in experimental group than that in PBSCT group ( P

The effect of pH on the extracellularpolysaccharide synthesis by Aureobasidium pullulans was studied by addding CaCO3and HCI. Cultivated in P2 liquid medium for 24h,pH dropped to 3. 6 because of strongly producing acid. Under this low pH environment, further fermentation for 120h,only 5. 9g/L of polysacharide was obtained. When grown in MP2 medium contaning0. 5 % CaCOs,the pH was kept above 5.0 during 144 hours,production of polysaccharide increased to 31g/L. The detailed information of effects of controlled pH on polysaccharide production showed an optimal pH value 5. 0 must be maintained through the fermentative period.

Objective To explore the efficacy of tigecycline combined with cefoperazone/sulbactam in the treatment of infections due to multiple drug resistant strains and pandrug-resistant acinetobacter baumannii, so as to guide the reasonable clinical medication.Methods A total of 16 cases of ventilator associated pneumonia caused by multiple drug resistant strains and pandrug-resistant acinetobacter baumannii treated in the First Hospital of Shijiazhuang from November 2012 to November 2014 were retrospectively analyzed, and the severity of the infection, clinical efficacy and mortality were observed.Results The multiple drug resistant strains and pandrugresistant acinetobacter baumannii were frequently detected in the 16 patients.Fifteen cases had been used other antibiotics before tigecycline, such as imipenem, cefoperazone/Shubatan, minocycline etc.The severity of underlying disease was assessed with the acute physiology and chronic health score(APACHE Ⅱ sore) within 24 h of admission, on the first day of tigecycline (TGC) therapy and after 7 days of TGC therapy.It showed that the average APACHE Ⅱ score were (25±6.0), (24.2±6.4) and (17.8±6.6) within 24 hours of admission(P＜0.01), on the first day of TGC therapy and after 7 days of TGC therapy.Thirty days after application of the TGC, the bacterial eradication rate was 56.25％ (9/16).The effective rate was 87.5％ (14/16).The failure rate was 12.5％ (2/16).Conclusion The effect of the tigecycline combined with cefoperazone/sulbactam on the clearance of the multiple drug resistant strains and pandrug-resistant acinetobacter baumanniiis is satisfied.

Adult acquired aortic disease such as aortic dissection,aortic aneurysm,is common,and the treatment is complicated.Furthermore,the specific molecular etiology of this kind of disease is unknown.MicroRNA,which is a short peptide molecule,to some extent,participated in almost every aspect of biological functions.This paper aims to review the role of microRNA in molecular etiology of adult acquired aortic disease.
