Objective To find out the cause of lung injury due to hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation, and the mechanism of propofol protecting Rhesus macaques from lung injury. Methods Twelve healthy Rhesus macaques were randomly divided into two groups: propofol group and control group. The animal model was made by 2-hour hemorrhagic shock and 2-hour resuscitation. Rhesus macaques in propofol group were given propofol at a plasma concentration of 8 mg/L all through by the technique of target controlled infusion. Hemodynamic parameters, gas analysis and RBC, WBC, HB and PLT contents from collected arterial blood were respectively determined before bleeding, 2 h after hemorrhagic shock and 2 h after resuscitation. Results Mean pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance index in propofol group 2 h after hemorrhagic shock and 2 h after resuscitation were significantly lower than those in control group (P

Objective To explore the association between the infection rate of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and intake frequency of capsicum in dietary pattern. Methods A total of 914 health check-up participants were recruited from Tianjin Medical University General Hospital (male: 510,female:404). All participants were asked about the intake frequency of capsicum. Diagnostic criteria of the Hp infection included positive C13 breath test. Results The intake frequency of capsicum was ≥2 times/week, 1 time/week and <1 time/week. The infection rate of Hp was 56.08%, 49.04% and 48.29%. After adjusting for covariates, compared with the≥2 times/week, the odds ratios(95%confidence interval)of intake frequency of capsicum 1 time/week and <1 time/week: the frequency of capsicum intake ≥2 times/week was 1.00 (reference), the frequency of capsicum intake 1 time/week was 0.57(0.33-0.97) and the frequency of capsicum intake<1 time/week was 0.69(0.42-1.14) in men;the frequency of capsicum intake≥2 times/week was 1.00 (reference), the frequency of capsicum intake 1 time/week was 1.01(0.54-1.88), and the frequency of capsicum intake<1 time/week was 0.71(0.41-1.23) in women. Conclusions This study found that food intake frequency of capsicum≥2 times/week was associated with the infection rate of Hp in men. But similar relationship was not observed in women.

To investigate the association between Helicobacter pylori ( Hp ) infection and type 2 diabetes.Total 4 129 health check up subjects aged (49.1 ±11.3) years (18-92 years), including 2 649 males and 1 480 females were enrolled in this cross-section study.Hp infection was confirmed by 13 C-urea breath test;type 2 diabetes mellitus was diagnosed according to WHO criteria (1999).Single factor analysis and multiple regression analysis were used to evaluate the association between Hp affection and the prevalence of type 2 diabetes.Hp infection rate in diabetic group was significantly higher than that in non-diabetic group (45.6%vs.39.0%, P<0.05).Hp infection rate in subjects with newly diagnosed diabetes was highest than those with previously diagnosed diabetes and non-diabetic subjects ( P<0.05).The glycosylated hemoglobin level in Hp infection group was higher than that in non infection group [ ( 5.88 ±0.64 )% vs.( 5.62 ± 0.88)%, P<0.05];the fasting plasma glucose and postprandial blood glucose levels in Hp infection group were also higher than those in non-infection group ( P<0.05 ).Logistic regression analysis showed that Hp infection was one of the independent risk factors of type 2 diabetes (OR=2.002, 95%CI:1.564-2.563, P<0.05).The study indicates that Hp infection is closely associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To explore the etiological factors of primary pathological duodenogastric reflux (DGR) through investigating the relationship between severity of bile refulx,the changes of surface gastric electric rhythm and gastric emptying movement in primary pathological DGR patients.Methods From January 2007 to April 2008 in Qingdao Municipal Hospital,58 cases of outpatients diagnosed as primary pathological DGR and 21 healthy individuals (control group) were collected and underwent 24-hour gastric bilirubin monitoring,gastric endoscopy,gastric electric rhythm,and gastric emptying test.The relationship between gastric electric parameters and gastric emptying,bilirubin reflux,Hp infection was analyzed.Results 1.The main frequency in fasting and postprandial of primary pathological DGR patients [(1.94±0.04) cpm vs (2.93±0.07) cpm; (2.12±0.03) cpm vs (3.35 ±0.05) cpm],the percentage of normal gastric slow wave in fasting and postprandial (74.46± 0.56 vs 85.55 ± 1.06 ; 63.97 ± 0.64 vs 86.13 ± 1.49),and fasting/postprandial power ratio (PR) (1.68±0.02 vs 2.75±0.09) were all lower than those of control group (P＜0.05).The percentage of bradygastria in fasting and postprandial of DGR patients (18.04±0.36 vs 7.76±0.78;23.73±0.91 vs 8.47±0.55),the percentage of tachygastria in fasting and postprandial (8.93±0.26 vs 5.75±0.66;13.02±0.40 vs 7.66±0.27) were higher than that of control group (P＜0.05).2.The main frequency of severe reflux patients in fasting and postprandial [( 1.68 ± 0.07) cpm vs (2.13 ± 0.07)cpm; (2.18±0.09) cpm vs (2.76±0.06) cpm],the percentage of normal gastric slow wave in fasting and postprandial (69.71±0.43 vs 80.35±0.68; 56.36 ±0.85 vs 72.34±0.80),fasting /postprandial PR (1.47±0.04 vs 2.02±0.04) were lower than those of mild-reflux group (P＜0.05).The percentage of bradygastria in fasting and postprandial of severe reflux patients (22.94 ± 0.68 vs 13.47 ± 0.61; 29.61 ± 1.14 vs 17.55 ± 0.51) and the percentage of tachygastria in fasting and postprandial (9.94 ± 0.54 vs 7.02 ± 0.42 ; 17.04 ± 0.70 vs 10.71 ± 0.20) were higher than that of mild-reflux group (P＜0.05).3.There was no significant difference of gastric electrical parameters in fasting and postprandial between Hp-positive and Hp-negative groups (P＞0.05).4.The ratio of gastric emptying in DGR group was significantly lower than that of control group (37.9％ vs 90.5 ％,P＜0.05).The gastric emptying delay in DGR group significantly increased compared with control group (60.3％ vs 9.5％,P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in gastric emptying delay between severe-reflux group and light-reflux group (69.0％ vs 51.7％,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions There is dysfuntion of gastric myoelectrical activity and gastric motility in primary pathological DGR patients,which may be an important mechanism in pathological DGR.

Objective To explore the value of echocardiography in percutaneous left atrial appendage (LAA)closure for stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation during procedure and for short-term follow-up.Methods Twenty patients were enrolled to undergo percutaneous LAA closure with the LAmbre device.Rheumatic valvular diseases were excluded by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography(TEE)before the closure procedure.TEE was performed during the procedure for the trans-septal puncture and the release of the closure device.Combined TEE with angiographic measurements,guidance for the optimal device size was provided.The closure effect and procedure-related complications were observed immediately by TEE and also evaluated by TTE at 1-day and 1-month follow-up.Results All patients underwent LAA occlusion successfully.TEE color Doppler evaluation have shown nine patients with complete closure immediately,one with a ≤ 1 mm residual LAA leak,and ten with a 1 -3 mm jet.There were no other complications during the procedure.One day after the closure,small pericardial effusions were observed for three patients while two of the three were free of the pericardial effusion at the 1-month follow-up.During the short-term follow-up,no damage was found at any anatomical structures near LAA due to the closure process,and there was no significant difference of cardiac function before and after the procedure.Conclusions With the guidance of TEE,the successful rate of percutaneous LAA closure procedure was preferable and the occurrence rate of compliance was acceptable. And TTE played an important role in patients'short-term follow-up.
