Objective To study the effective methods for extraction of clenbuterol from biological material. Methods Clenbuterol in blood samples was extracted with 5 different methods,the extracts from various extraction methods were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS?雪. The efficiency of 5 extraction methods was compared with each other. Results The standard curve showed good linear relationship with a range from 0.01-10.0 mg/L clenbuterol hydrochloride(r=0.999 9?雪. The detection limit was 0.005 mg/L. After adding 1.0 ?g/ml clenbuterol hydrochloride into blood sample,the blood sample was immersed and extracted in 0.01 mol/L HCl and absolute alcohol.The extracts were extracted by chloroform at pH value of 11. The average recovery and RSD of this method were 96.5% and 5.21% respectively(n=6?雪. Conclusion The method showed easy operation and reliable results ,it was suitable for determination of clenbuterol in biological material without deviation.

Objective To compare adaptive support ventilation (ASV) and pressure-controlled assist/control ventilation (PCMV) and evaluate the clinical effects of ASV. Methods 12 cases of acute respiratory failure patients induced by all causes were selected in the study. All patients with breathing independently underwent endotracheal intubation. The patterns of mechanical ventilation was PCMV-ASV-PCMV. the two settings of PCMV were uniformity. With ASV mode mechanical ventilation,we adjusted the percentage of minute ventilation (MV%) and ideal body weight (IBW) of patients,so as to reach the same minute ventilation volume of PCMV. We compared the blood gas,respiratory mechanics,work of breathing(WOB),airway occlusion pressure (P0.05). Compared with the first of PCMV,various indicators and blood gas of ASV had no significant difference,work of breathing (WOB),airway occlusion pressure (P=0.1) and inspiratory pressure time product (PTP) were significantly lower (P0.05). Conclusion ASV can get similar goals with conventional ventilation,and reduce patient′s effort and the central respiratory drive.

Objective To investigate and compare the argumentativeness and attitudes towards thinking and learning between clinical nurses in general adult wards and wards for patients requiring particularity healthcare for the identification and development of core communication skills.Mettods “Argumentativeness Scale” and “Attitudes toward Thinking and Learning Survey” in Chinese were used to measure a convenience sample of 504 clinical nurses in seven hospitals.Results The scores in items reflecting rationality,positivism,empathy and acceptance in 247 nurses in wards for particularity heahhcare were significantly different from those nurses working in internal medical wards for adults with internal medical problems.Conclusions To develop harmonious interpersonal relationships in nurses,we should strengthen competencies in emotional regulation and rational thinking in nurses in wards for adults with in-ternal medical problems.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression of IL-9, IL-17 and Foxp3 in nasal polyps,so that to explore the role of Th9, Th17/Treg cells imbalance in pathogenesis of nasal polyposis. METHOD: Forty cases of nasal polyps and 20 cases of normal middle turbinate mucosa (controls) were involved in this study. The expression patterns of IL-9, IL-17 and Foxp3 were detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULT: The positive rates of IL-9 and IL-17 in nasal polyps tissues were respectively 75.0% and 80.0%, which were both significantly higher than those in the controls (positive rates were 35.0% and 50.0%, respectively), but the Foxp3 expression was downregulated in nasal polyps tissues (37.5%) compared to the controls (80.0%), P < 0.05 respectively. CONCLUSION The cytokines IL-9 and IL-17 are obviously involved in the occurrence and development of nasal polyposis, suggesting remarkable infiltration of Th9 and Th17/Treg imbalance exist in nasal polyps, both of which may play important roles in pathogenesis of nasal polyposis.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression levels of Th9, Th17 and Treg cells in peripheral blood of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), and explore the role of Th9, Th17 and Treg cells in the progression of CRSwNP. METHOD: Forty-six cases with CRSwNP served as an experimental group, while 22 cases with simple nasal bleeding or nasal septum deviation served as a control group. The peripheral blood of patients in both groups was collected and analyzed. (1) Using flow cytometry (FCM) to detect the expression rates of Th9, Th17 and Treg cells in peripheral blood. (2) Using qRT-PCR to detect the expression of relevant transcription factor of Th9, Th17 and Treg cells (IL-9mRNA, PU. 1, IRF-4, RoRc, and Foxp3). (3) Using SPSS16.0 to analyse the differentiations and the revelance among these three cells. RESULT: (1) The expression rates of Th9 and Th17 cells in patients with CRSwNP (1.29% ± 0.18%, 4.03% ± 0.69%) was higher than the control group (0.45% ± 0.14%, 1.35% ± 0.26%). But the expression rates of Treg cells in the experimental group (2.98% ± 0.13%) was significantly lower than the control group (5.44% ± 0.57%). The differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). (2) The expression of revelant transcription factor (IL-9mRNA, PU.1, IRF-4, RoRc) in NP group was also higher than the control group. The expression of Foxp3 in the control group was higher than NP, the differences both were statistically significant (P < 0.05). (3) The difference between Th9 and Th17 in patients with NP was not significant (P > 0.05), and the negative correlation was found between Th17 and Treg (r = -0.549, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The high expression level of Th9 and Th17 cells might promote the development of NP, whereas the low expression level of Treg cells might further aggravate the occurrence of NP. The main function of the imbalance of Th17/Treg cells may be immune regulation in the pathogenesis of nasal polys.

Objective Platelet aggregation, activation induced by bubbles is the main cause of decompression sick-ness.Clopidogrel(Clo) can decrease platelet aggregation through inhibiting the bind of fibrinogen and ADP .This study is designed to find if Clopidogrel can paly a protective role in decompression sickness and explore the intervention mechanism . Methods Totally 111 male SD rats divided into 3 groups:normal control group (n=20), decompression sickness(DCS) group(n=46), and DCS+Clo(Clopidogrel)treated decompression sickness (DCS+Clo)group(n=45).The rats in DCS and DCS+Clo group were placed in chamber and compressed to 1.5 MPa at speed of 2t/4 , the time of compression and res-idence was 4.5 min totally, then decompressed to surface at a speed of 3 m/s.The mortality and behavioral of rats were ob-served within 30 min post decompression .The pathology and the wet/dry ratio of lung , WBC and platelet counts in periph-eral blood, the expression of activated platelets , and immunohistochemical detection of lung tissue CD 41 expression were also been tested .Results We found Clo reduces the DCS mortality risk ( mortality rate:11/45 in DCS+Clo group vs 28/46 in DCS group, P<0.01).Clo reduced the lung injury, the wet/dry ratio of lung, the accumulation of platelet and leu-kocyte in lung , the WBC counts and activated platelets in peripheral blood .Conclusion Clo can play a protective role in decompression sickness through reducing post-decompression platelet consumption and activation , decreasing the activation of leukocytes .

Through a series of chemical reactions, a kind of quaternary ammonium salt derivative of nanodiamond, ND-CO-NH-CH2-CH2-N ( CH3 ) 3+· I-( QAS-ND ) , was obtained , which was confirmed by FTIR, element analysis experiment and the electrochemistry measurements. Mixed myoglobin ( Mb) and QAS-ND solution was dropped on the surface of the glassy carbon ( GC ) electrode to prepare QAS-ND/Mb/GC modified electrode. In 0. 1 mol/L phosphate buffer solution (PBS) (pH 7. 0), Mb in the membrane exhibited direct electrochemical properties and showed good stability. The electrocatalytic property of the modified electrode toward H2 O2 was investigated, the results showed that the modified electrode could be used as the H2O2 biosensor to achieve fast, accurate detection of H2O2, with a detection limit of 3. 5 mmol/L (S/N=3).
