Journal of Chinese Physician 2011;13(5):618-620
Objective To determine the risk factors for the development of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) in the patients after cardiopulmonary bypass has been constructed. Methods Eighty three NYHAⅠor Ⅱ patients, aged 6month-66yr, weighting 7~97 kg, undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass, were enrolled in this study. SIRS score was performed during 24 h after the surgery. The patients were divided into 2 groups: SIRS group(S, SIRS score≥2) and non-SIRS group(U, SIRS score<2). The risk factors were identified by logistic regression analysis. Results The incidence of SIRS was 83.13% . Logistic analysis indicated that arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2), retention time, and postoperative heart rate were closely related with the development of SIRS in patients on ICU after cardiopulmonary bypass (OR=0.518,4.334,3.607,P<0.05). Conclusions The arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2), ICU stay, and heart rate after cardiopulmonary bypass has been constructed can be served as the risk factors for the development of SIRS in patients.

Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine 2016;25(9):1149-1153
Objective To study the immunomodulation effects of different dosage of dexmedetomidine (Dex)in the septic shock model of rats after cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).Methods After CLP, 48 wistar rats were randomly (random number)allocated in four groups:(1)CLP group;(2)small-dose Dex group [2.5 μg/(kg·h)];(3)medium-dose Dex group [5.0 μg/(kg·h)];(4) large-dose Dex group [10.0 μg/(kg·h)].HLA-DR (human leukocyte antigen-DR)and plasma cytokine (IL-4, IL-6,IL-10 and TNF-α)were measured,meanwhile mean arterial blood pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR)and mortality were also documented at 1,3,and 5 h after the CLP procedure.Results There were no obvious differences in HLA -DR level,levels of inflammatory mediators,MAP and HR among there Dex treatment groups.Compared with CLP group,HLA-DR level decreased in three Dex treatment groups (P =0.020)and pro-inflammatory mediator (IL-6)increased at 3 h (P =0.011 )then declined at 5 h with decreased HR (P <0.01),and without obvious change in MAP (P =0.124),and all of them led to a significantly decrease in the mortality.The mortalities in CLP group,small dose group,medium dose group and large dose group were 91.7%, 66.7%, 25.0% and 18.0%, respectively. Conclusions Dexmedetomidine used in rats with septic shock rats partially induced immunomodulation initiated within 5 h after CLP evidenced by decreased HR,maintenance of MAP and reduction of mortality rate in dose-dependent fashion.
10.The research development of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in Her-2 resistance for the treat-ment of breast cancer
Practical Oncology Journal 2014;(4):360-363
Her-2 targeting therapy is an important part of the treatment for breast cancer with Her -2 overexpression.However,the therapeutic effectiveness is largely influenced by Her -2 resistance.Previous studies have confirmed that PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway is activated during the process of drug resistance to Her-2-targeting therapy.Therefore,investigating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and drugs -targeted pathway are important for the treatment of breast cancer .
