Objective To assess the changes in blood coagulation after infusion of hydroxyethyl starch 45/ 0.7(molecular weight = 450000 Dalton, 70% of glucose units have been substituted) ,200/0.62, 200/0.5 and 130/0.4.Methods Forty rabbits weighing (2.6 ?0.5)kg were randomly divided into 5 groups of 8 animals each: group I HES450/0.7; group II HES 200/0.62; group III HES200/0.5; group IV HES 130/0.4; group V 0.9% NaCl. The animals were anesthetized with intramuscular seconal and ketamine. Hydroxyethyl starch or normal saline was infused at 10 ml?kg-1?h-1 for 3 h. Blood samples were taken before and 1,2,3 h after staring the infusion for determination of prothrombin time ( PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and fibrinogen level (FIb) and thromboelastograph examination (TEG) .Results (1) After infusion of 30 ml?kg-1 HES 450/0.7 or 200/0.62 (in group I and II ) R time (representing the rate of initial fibrin formation) and K time (coagulation time) were significantly prolonged (P

Objective To compare different dose of remifentanil combined with propofol for painless abortion and approach to an appropriate dose of remifentanil.Methods Ninety pregnant women with ASA 1 were randomly divided into three groups(n=30)before administrating remifetanil,a bolus midazolam 1 mg was injected inminutes later.These two drugs did not stop administration until three minutes before the end of negative suction.MAP,HR,SpO2,BIS,RR,VT,PET CO2 were monitored.The onset,operation and recovery time,sedation score and adverse reaction were recorded.Results Sedation scores were significantly different between group A and C [(3.90±0.97)and(4.90±0.85),t=4.24,P＜0.01].Three cases in group A were found moving.MAP,HR,BIS decreased as compared witll baseline.HR reduced significantly in group C(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Respiratory movement was lower and shallower.RR,VT decreased compared to preoperative one.PET C02 increased gradually (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).There were two cases of respiratory depressing in group A,four cases in group B and ten cases in group C(five cases apnea more than three minutes).All patients used oxygen mask to maintain SpO2＞95%.Incidence of adverse reactions such as chest titanic,nausea and vomiting,itching were of no difference among three groups(P＞0.05).All patients were satisfied with anesthesia.Conclusion The appropriate infusing dose of remifetory devices such as oxygen mask and monitoring life signs are very important to prevent respiratory depress and bradycardia during operation.

Objective To design and synthesize derivatives of wanpeinine A, the main steroidal alkaloid isolated from the plant Fritillaria shuchengensis, and further study on the structure-activity relationship of the steroidal alkaloid. Methods Acylation and alkylation were used to synthesize the derivatives and their structures were identified via NMR and MS.Results The acylation of wanpeinine A (1) produced 3β,6α-diacetylwanpeinine A (2), 3β,6α-dipropionylwanpeinine A (3), 3β,6α-dichloracetylwanpeinine A (4), 3β,6α-dibenzoylwanpeinine A (5), and 3β-methoxyacylwanpeinine A (6). The alkylation of wanpeinine A formed 3β,6α-dimethoxymethylwanpeinine A (7). Conclusion All compounds are new except for 3β,6α-diacetylwanpeinine A.

Objective To compare the early outcomes of laparoscopic and open resection and evaluate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic surgery in patients with colorectal cancer aged ≥ 70 years.Methods A total of 91 consecutive patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma underwent surgery in Yizheng City People's Hospital between Jan.2009 and Dec.2015.In 91 patients included in this study,38 received laparoscopic surgery and 53 underwent open surgery.Main outcome measures were clinical data,postoperative recovery status and short-term outcomes.Results There were no significant differences between two groups with respect to demographic indicators,clinicopathological results and chronic comorbidities had no significant difference between two groups.No death cases occured in both groups.One patient in the laparoscopic group required conversion to open surgery due to ureteral injury.Laparoscopic surgery was associated with significantly longer operating time [(238 ± 71.3) minutes vs (175 ± 60.8) minutes,P ＜ 0.001],less estimated blood loss [(145 ± 58 ml) vs (186 ± 45) ml,P ＜ 0.001)],a shorter postoperative hospital stay [(11.9 ± 3.9) days vs (14.5 ± 3.7) days],lower overall postoperative complication rate (23.7％ vs 45.3％,P =0.035),wound-related complication rate (2.6％ vs 22.6％,P =0.017) when compared with open surgery.Quality of surgical specimen,lymph nodes harvested were not significantly different between two groups.Conclusion Laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery is safe and feasible in elderly patients,associated with better short-term outcomes when compared with open surgery.

Objective To investigating the microbial communities and physicochemical properties of soil and distribution of Oncomelania hupensis snails in marshlands along the Yangtze River basin at different types of land use, and to examine the effects of soil microorganisms and physicochemical properties on snail distribution, so as to provide insights into snail control and schistosomiasis prevention in marshland along the Yangtze River basin. Methods Marshlands with four types of land use were selected along the Yangtze River basin on April 2021, including poplar forest-crops integrated planting, reed areas, agricultural cultivation lands and ditches. The distribution of snails and physicochemical properties of soil were investigated in marshlands with different types of land use, and the V3 to V4 regions of the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) gene, fungal internal transcribed spacer-1 (ITS1) gene and algal ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcL) gene in soils were subjected to high-throughput sequencing. The occurrence of frames with living snails and density of living snails were compared in marshland with different types of land use. The associations of soil microorganisms and physicochemical properties with the density of living snails were examined using Pearson correlation analysis, and the contributions of soil microorganisms and physicochemical properties to the density of living snails were evaluated using variance partitioning analysis. Results In marshlands with four types of land use, the greatest occurrence of frames with living snails [(4.94 ± 2.14)%] and density of living snails [(0.070 ± 0.026) snails/0.1 m²] were seen in ditches, and the lowest were found in [(1.23 ± 1.23)%] agricultural cultivation lands [(0.016 ± 0.019) snails/0.1 m²]. A total of 2 phyla, 5 classes, 8 orders, 9 families and 11 genera of algae were detected in soils at four types of land use, with Chlorophyta as the dominant phylum and Pseudoneochloris as the dominant genus. A total of 44 phyla, 134 classes, 281 orders, 338 families and 516 genera of bacteria were detected in soils at four types of land use, with Proteobacteria and Acidobacteriota as the dominant phyla and uncultured Acidobacterium, MND1, Mitrospira, Haliangium and Sphingomonas as dominant genera. A total of 11 phyla, 41 classes, 108 orders, 223 families and 408 genera of fungi were detected in soils at four types of land use, with phyla Ascomycota, Basidiomycota and Mortierellomycota presenting high relative abundances and genera Cladorrhinum, Mortierella and Humicola presenting high relative abundances. Pearson correlation analysis revealed that the density of living snails correlated negatively with the relative abundance of Proteobacteria (r = −0.965, P < 0.05) and soil electronic conductivity (r = −0.962, P < 0.05) and positively with soil moisture (r = 0.951, P < 0.05). Variance partitioning analysis demonstrated that the physicochemical properties and microorganisms of soil contributed 69% and 10% to the density of living snails, respectively. Conclusion The diversity of microbial communities varies in soils at different types of land use in marshland along the Yangtze River basin, and the physicochemical properties and microorganisms of soils may affect the distribution of O. hupensis snails.
