Objective To examine the effects of different doses of midazelam on ED50 of emulsified isoflurane and to determine the type of interaction between them for hypnosis by isobelographic analysis in rats. Methods One hundred and twenty-five adult male SD rats weighing 240-300 g were randomized into 5 groups (n=25 each): group Ⅰmidazolam (M); group Ⅱ emulsified isnflurane (Ⅰ); group Ⅲ ,Ⅳ ,Ⅴ, 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 ED50 of midazelam for hypnosis + emulsified isoflurane (MI1 , MI2, MI3). Up-and-down sequential experiment was used to determine ED50of midazolam and emulsified isoflurane for loss of righting reflex in group Ⅰ -Ⅴ . The intial dose of midazolm was 17.3 mg/kg in group M. The initial doses of emulsified isoflurane (120 mg/ml) were 0.55 (in group Ⅰ, 0.22 (MI1), 0.19 (MI2) and 0.12 ml/kg (MI3) respectively. In group MI1-3 midazolam was injected over 15 seconds and after an interval of 2.5 min emulsified isoflurane was injected over 10 s. ED50 was calculated using Dixon-Mood method. Isebolographic and algebraic analyses were used to determine the type of interaction between midazolam and emulsified isoflurane. Results The five groups were comparable with respect to M/F sex ratio and body weight. The Edso of midazolam was 26.0 mg/kg in group M. Midazolam 6.5, 13.0 and 19.5 mg/kg were given in group MI1 , MI2 and MI3 respectively. The ED50 of emulsified isoflurane was 0.67 (ingroup Ⅰ), 0.30 (MI1), 0.22 (MI2) and 0.18 ml/kg (MI3) respectively. The isobolographic analysis indicated that with increasing doses of midazolam, the Edw of emulsified isoflurane decreased progressively in a non-linear fashion. The isobolographic and algebraic analyses demonstrated that the interaction between midazolam and emulsified isoflurane was synergistic for hypnosis. Conclusion The hypnosis is synergistic when midazolam 6.5,13 mg/kg are combined with emulsified isoflurane and additive when midazolam 19.5 mg/kg is combined with emulsified isoflurane.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether the magnesium sulfate injection(MSI)into cisterna magna in a rabbit with subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH)can reverse the cerebral vasospasm and damage of brain tissues.METHODS:The single-hemorrhage SAH rabbit model was used.Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into the following three groups(n=10,in the each group):sham group,model group and MSI group.At 24 hours after SAH,the rabbits were injected with 0.1 mL?kg-1 of saline into cisterna magna in sham and model groups,while 0.1 mL?kg-1 of 4% magnesium sulfate was injected into cisterna magna of rabbits in MSI group.All animals were sacrificed at 48 hours after SAH.Basilar arteries and hippocampus were then removed for measurement of the cross-sectional areas of basilar arteries and the hippocampus normal neuron density of CA1 regions.RESULTS:The cross-sectional areas of basilar artery and the hippocampus normal neuron density of CA1 regions were smaller in model group than in the other two groups(P0.05).CONCLUSIONS:This study results indicate that injecting magnesium sulfate into cisterna magna can reverse the cerebral vasospasm and the following hippocampal neuron damage in rabbits with subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Objective To establish the platelet antigen panel for identifying the specificity of platelet antibodies which cause platelet transfusion refractoriness and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia and provide evidence for clinical therapy and platelet genotyping research.Methods Based on the frequency distribution of human platelet alloantigen (HPA)-1 to HPA-16 gene in China, the frequencies of HPA-1 to HPA-6,HPA-15 alleles in blood group O donors were genotyped by the polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) method, and suitable donors were chosen to establish platelet-specific antigen panel.Using the established platelet-specific antigen panel, the specificity of platelet antibodies caused by alloimmune reaction was identified by using simplified sensitized erythrocyte platelet serology assay (SEPSA).Results Eleven ptatelet donors with blood group O were chosen to establish platelet-specific antigen panel which can identify specificity of HPA-1 to HPA-6, HPA-15 antibodies.One case of HPA-4b (Penb) and two cases of HPA-15a (Govb) platelet specific antibodies were detected in 1 120 samples.Conclusion Identifying the specific platelet antibodies using platelet specific antigen panel has profound significance on increasing the safety and effectiveness of clinical platelet transfusion and prevention of neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia.

Objective To evaluate the effect of propofol on interleukin-1β (IL-1β)-induced increase in monolayer permeability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).Methods Primary HUVECs were cultured and purified by immuno-magnetic separation.The expression of VE-cadherin in endothelial cells was determined by immunofluorescence.The HUVEC monolayer permeability was detected by the Transwell system.The cells were seeded on the upper chamber (2 × 105 cells/well) and cultured for 3 days after confluence.The cells were treated in two ways.The cells were randomly divided into 6 groups (n =36 each) and 5 of the 6 groups treated with 1,2,5,10 and 20 ng/ml IL-1β for 24 h except for control group.The cells were also randomly divided into 5 groups (n =30 each) and 4 of the 5 groups were pretreated with 0,10,50 and 100 μmol/L propofol for 30 min,and then treated with 10 ng/ml IL-1β for 24 h except for control group.The cells were radomly divided into 3 groups (n =18 each) and 2 of the 3 groups were pretreated with 50 μmol/L propofol for 30 min,and then treated with 10 ng/ml IL-1β for 24 h or 30 min.The expression of occludin protien,p38 mitogen activiated protienkinase (p38 MAPK) and phosphorylated p38 MAPK (p-p38 MAPK) was determined by Western blot.Results Compared with control group,5,10 and 20 ng/ml IL-1β significantly increased HUVEC monolayer permeability in a concentration-dependent manner (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).10,50 and 100 μmol/L propofol inhibited IL-1 β-induced increase in the permeability of HUVEC monolayer permeability in a concentration-dependent manner (P ＜ 0.01).IL-1β could down-regulate HUVEC occludin protein expression,and activate p38MAPK signaling pathway,and propofol inhibited IL-1β-induced down-regulation of HUVEC occludin protein expression and activation of p38 MAPK signaling pathway (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Propofol can alleviate IL-1β-induced increase in the permeability of HUVEC monolayer via inhibiting activation of p38 MAPK signaling pathway.

Objective To study the safety and availability of extended resection,gland reconstruction and mammary gland lavage in treatment of mammary duct expansion.Methods 41 patients with duct expansion admitted from Mar.2012 to Jan.2015 were studied and they were randomly divided into two groups.15 patients in the control group received normal surgical treatment,and 26 patients in the observation group received extended resection,gland reconstruction and mammary gland lavage treatment.Results The operation time,intraoperatve blood loss,length of hospital stay and degree of satisfaction of the observation group were superior to those of the control group while the recurrence rate was lower than that of control group.The gland expanded resection reduced the recurrence rate,the shape of the breast was improved,and the continuous irrigation was the guarantee for the immediate formation of the gland.The three kinds of surgical procedures were organically combined and complement each other.Conclusion The surgical methord of extended resection,gland reconstruction and mammary gland lavage is worth of further exploring due to its advantages of easy to operate,good cosmetic effect and low recurrence rate.

Results Both groups improved significantly in scores of FMA-L, BBS, FAC and average step length, stride width, walking velocity (P<0.01) after treatment, and improved more in the intervention group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Intensive motor control training of lower extremity may promote the recovery of motor function of lower extremities, balance and walking ability of stroke patients.

BACKGROUND: It has been believed mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play a role in treatment through paracrine mechanism. Various side effects such as embolism, tumorigenesis and immunological reaction caused by direct injection of MSCs can be avoided by extracting MSC lysate. However, there is a larger difference in current collection methods and standards of MSC lysate. OBJECTIVE: To compare repeated freeze-thaw and ultrasonication for the collection of lysate of MSCs. METHODS: Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) were isolated from the abdominal subcutaneous fat of healthy individuals, and purified with adherence screening method, followed by in vitro amplification using fetal bovine serum medium. The common surface makers of these cells were tested by flow cytometry (1×109, 2×109, 4×109/L). Repeated freeze-thaw and ultrasonication were employed for cell cytoclasis at three different densities respectively in saline and double distilled water, and a comprehensive comparison was performed on cytoclasis rate and the content of protein in cell lysate between the two methods. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) ADMSCs obtained from in vitro isolated human adipose tissue grew in a swirl or radial pattern with a homogenous size and neat arrangement. CD44, CD90, CD105 and other commonly used surface markers were highly expressed. (2) The study for optimization of lysate collection revealed that the higher cell density implicated a longer time for cell wall disruption and cytoclasis, as well as significantly increased cytoclasis rate. (3) BCA protein assay showed that the highest content of protein was obtained in saline solvent using ultrasonication method. Comprehensive analysis on the results leads to a conclusion that ultrasonication method with saline as the solvent is the optimized method for extraction of ADMSCs lysate, and the cell concentration of less than 4×109/L is recommended.
