Objective To study the adverse health effects of indoor decoration on the inhabitants and to provide scientific evidences for improving the living conditions.Methods To investigate the condition of room decorating,fitment and the health situation of inhabitants,then analyze the data by multiple Logistic regression.Results The indoor air pollution caused by indoor decoration could cause many kinds of complaints.The result of single factor analysis showed that less than 6 months after the decoration(OR=9.45),to live in the room in less than half month after the decoration(OR=1.97)and living in the room for less than 1 month(OR=16.19)maybe increase the risk of complaints.When adjusted the effects of the other influence factors,the result showed that the longer the time of decoration was finished,the lower the risk of complaints was(OR=0.82,95%CI:0.73-0.91).Keeping ventilation could decrease the risk of complaints(OR=0.68,95%CI:0.54-0.87).Conclusion The results of this investigation indicate that the discomfortable symptoms of inhabitants living in the room decorated recently are the combined results of many factors which include room decorating,the surrounding of living,the working condition,individual habit and living habits.To prolong the time of living in the room after decoration and keep the room ventilation can decrease the adverse effects of decoration pollution.

objective To investigate the changes in angiotensin-Ⅱ (AT-Ⅱ), endothelin (ET) andcalcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) during clipping of intracranial aneurysm performed under desfiuraneanesthesia. Methods Forty-five ASAⅠ -Ⅱ patients (20 male, 25 female) aged 14-66yr undergoing electiveclipping of intracranial aneurysm two weeks after acute subarachnoid bleeding. Anesthesia was induced withmidazolam 0 .05 mg?kg~(-1), fentanyl 2?g?kg~(-1), propofol 2 mg?kg~(-1) and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg~(-1). The patientswere mechanically ventilated after tracheal intubation and P_(ET)CO_2 was maintained at 30-35 mm Hg. Anesthesia wasmaintained with desflurane at 1 .0-1 .5 MAC with low flow (0.3-0.5 L?min~(-1) ) supplemented with intermittentintravenous boluses of vecuronium. Radial artery was cannulated for direct continuous BP monitoring. ECG, HR,SPO_2 and P_(ET) CO_2 were continuous monitored during operation. Blood samples were taken before induction ofanesthesia (T_1, baseline), when dura was opened (T_2 ), while aneurysm was being clipped (T_3 ) and 30 min afterclipping for determination of plasma concentrations of AT-Ⅱ, ET and CGRP. Results Plasma concentration ofAT-Ⅱ did not change significandy throughout the surgery. Plasma ET concentration decreased significantly at T_2and T_3 compared with the baseline (P

BACKGROUND: Puerarin possesses various biological efficacies, such as the protective efficacy on hypertension, cardiac disease, diabetes mellitus and blood disease, and the extracts of puerarin can inhibit the proliferation of S180 sarcoma and Lewis lung cancer to some extent.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the modulation effects of total flavone of puerarin (TFP) on the growth of pheochromocytoma PC12 cells and the protective efficacy on the H2O2-induced cellular oxidative damage.DESIGN: Complete randomization design and control experiment.SETTING: Department of Biochemistry and Institute of Geriatrics, Chinese PLA General Hospital.MATERIALS: Puerarin was bought from Tongrentang drug store, and TFP was extracted and purified routinely by ethanol and ether acetate, then was evaluated with thin-layer chromatography. The content of puerarin in extracts was 31.79% in quantitative assay. Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT), luminal and anti-oxidative activity reagent xanthine oxidase were all from Sigma Company. PC12 cells were given by Institute of Geriatrics,Chinese PLA General Hospital as a present.METHODS: The experiment was conducted at the Institute of Geriatrics, Chinese PLA General Hospital from January to July in·2001.① The cells were cultured in 20 g/L DMEM (pH 7.1-7.2), and randomized into two groups: TFP group and H2O2-injury+TFP group, and each group was divided into 5 mass concentrations (0, 1.0, 10, 100 mg/L and 1.0 g/L). There were 8 holes for parallel culture with 100 mL culture medium in each hole (containing 1 ×l09 L-1 cells). TFP group:TFP was added for 72-hour culture at 37 ℃; H2O2 injury+TFP group:TFP was firstly cultured for 48 hours at 37 ℃, then 500 mmol/L H2O2 was added and co-cultured for other 24 hours.②The activity of cultured PC12 cells was monitored by MTF assays, the content of nitrite was measured by Griess reagents, and the antioxidant activity of superoxidedismutase (SOD) was monitored by hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase.H2O2-initiated PC12 cellular oxidative damage had been used as experimental model to study the protective efficacy of TFP, and expressed as inhibition ratio [(blank A value-detection A value)/blank A value × 100%]. The higher inhibition ratio indicated the strong ability of clearing O2-. ③ One-factor analysis of variance was used to compare the difference between data. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The influence of TFP on the nitrite content, SOD activity and cell activity in PC12 cells.RESULTS: ①Effect of TFP on PC12 cell activity: 1-10 mg/L TFP hadno obvious effects on the growth of PC12 cells, and 100 mg/L TFP in creased the cell growth (P ＜ 0.05), whereas the TFP concentration was increased to 1.0 g/L, the activity of PC12 cells was inhibited obviously (P ＜ 0.01). TFP of 1-100 mg/L could protect the cultured cells from the oxidative damages of H2O2 concentration dependently (P ＜ 0.05).② Effect of TFP on clearing O2-: The ability of clearing O2 increased withthe mass concentrations of TFP in both groups with obvious dose-effect relation, except when 1 mg/L TFP was added in the H2O2 injury+TFP group. The SOD activity in PC12 cell culture liquid was obviously en hanced after adding 100 mg/L and 1 g/L TFP, compared with that without TFP addition (P ＜ 0.05-0.01). ③Modulation of TFP on nitrite: TFP of low concentration (1-100 mg/L) reduced the production of cellnitrite, whereas increased the nitrite production at the concentration of1.0 mg/mL.CONCLUSION: ①TFP can regulate the growth of PC12 cells, which canbe enhanced by low-concentration (1-100 mg/L) TFP whereas inhibited byhigh-concentration (1 g/L) TFP. However, the anti-oxidation of TFP is themost powerful. ②TFP can protect the PC12 cells obviously from the oxidative damages induced by H2O2 at low concentration.

90 bpm and nicardipine 10?g?kg-1 when MAP increased by 20% of the baseline value. Radial artery was cannulated for continuous BP monitoring and blood sampling. MAP, ECG, HR, SpO2 , PET CO2 and body temperature were continuously monitored during anesthesia. Blood samples were taken before induction of anesthesia (T1), when dura was cut (T2), when aneurysm was clipped (T3 ) and 30 min after clipping (T4 ) for determination of plasma concentrations of AT- Ⅱ , ET and CGRP by radioimmuno-assay.Results Plasma concentration of AT- Ⅱ and HR did not change significantly through out the study. Plasma CGRP concentration and MAP decreased significantly during operation at T2-4 as compared to the baseline values (T1 ) . Plasma ET concentration increased significantly at clipping (T3 ) as compared to that at T2. Conclusion The action of vaso-constrictors (AT- Ⅱ , ET) predominates over that of vaso-dilator during operation. It is important to prevent acute cerebral vasospasm during intracranial aneurysm clipping.

BACKGROUND: Cerebral vascular spasm is the main complication of intracranial aneurysm during perioperative period. Anesthesia of clamp operation of intracranial aneurysm not only meet the basic requirement of anesthesia, but also prevent cerebral vascular spasm and protect cerebral function possibly.OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes of angiotensin Ⅱ and endothelins of paitents with intracranial aneurysm under the anesthesia of desflurane during the clamp operation so as to discuss the effect of desflurane on cerebral protection.DESIGN: Case analysis.SETTING: Department of Neurosurgery and Department of Anesthesiology of Beijing Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 64 patients, 30 males and 34 females, who were prepared for clamp operation of intracranial aneurysm, were selected from Department of Neurosurgery of Beijing Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences between October 2002 and June 2004.METHODS: After anesthesia induction, tracheal cannula was used to control respiration and desflurane was used to maintain the anesthesia. Totally 4 mL arterial blood were collected at the four time points: before anesthesia induction, cutting dura mater, clamp aneurysm and 30 minutes after clamp aneurysm. Levels of angiotensin Ⅱ and endothelins in plasma were assayed with radioimmunoassay.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Levels of angiotensin Ⅱ and endothelins at the four time points: before anesthesia induction, cutting dura mater,clamp aneurysm and 30 minutes after clamp aneurysm.RESULTS: Aneurysm of two patients was disrupted during the operation of angiotensin Ⅱ was ranged normally before operation, and that at the other three time points during the anesthesia of desflurane did not changed endothelins: Level of endothelins at the three time points of cutting dura mater, clamp aneurysm and 30-minutes after clamp aneurysm was lower than that at the time point of pre-an esthesia induction [(40.4±10.3),(40.0±9.6), (40.7±12.3), (49.3±12.7) ng/L, (P=0.002, 0.001, 0.009)].CONCLUSION: Levels of angiotensin Ⅱ and endothelins which anesthetizes by desflurane are not increased during the whole clamp operation of intracranial aneurysm. However, level of endothelins is obviously lower than that at the time point of pre-anesthesia induction, and there is not significantly different from that at various time points of the operation. This suggests that anesthesia of desflurane can avoid the onset of acute cerebral vascular spasm induced by the increasing liberation of angiotensin Ⅱ and endothelins and decrease the onset of secondary cerebral ischemic injury so as to protect brain.

BACKGROUND: Cerebral ischemia and reperfusion affects not only cellular necrosis at acute stage, but also delayed neuronal apoptosis in central neural system.OBJECTIVE: To observe apoptosis rate, necrosis rate and expression of Bcl-2 and Bax apoptpsis-regulating proteins in hippocampal neurons at various reperfusion stages of complete cerebral ischemia in rats so as to probe into the regulation of injury induced by complete cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.DESIGN: Randomized control experiment.SETTING: Department of Neurosurgery and Department of Anesthesiology in Beijing Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Beijing Institute of Neurosurgery Affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences from January 2003 to January 2004. Totally 33 healthy adult male Wistar rats of clean grade were employed, randomized in 5 groups, named ischemia +reperfusion 24 hours group (24 hours group) (7 rats), ischemia + reperfusion 48 hours group (48 hours group) (7 rats), ischemia + reperfusion 72hours group (72 hours group) (7 rats), ischemia + reperfusion 7 days group (7 days group) (7 rats) and sham-operation control (control) (5 rats).INTERVENTIONS: Model of complete cerebral ischemia and reperfusion was prepared in rat. Cerebral hippocampal tissues were collected in 24, 48,72 hours and 7 days after reperfusion successively. The flow cytometer was used to determine cellular apoptosis rate and necrosis rate and expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins in cerebral hippocampal neurons in rats.percentages of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins.hippocampal neurons in 7 days group was the highest [(24.59±0.97) %].The peak value of necrosis rate presented in 24 hours group [(16.67±1.04)%], which was remarkably higher than the control [(1.28±0.50)%,low [(1.07±0.27)%], but high expression of Bax presented [(46.09±5.37)%].and reperfusion [(14.41±0.67)%] and the peak value of Bax protein presented in 72 hours after ischemia and reperfusion [(77.38±1.52)%].CONCLUSION: Hippocampal neuronal apoptosis rate is increased gradually and expression of Bcl-2 and Bax apoptosis-regulating genes was increased abnormally after injury induced by complete cerebral ischemia and reperfusion, which suggests that Bcl-1 and Bax proteins are involved in apoptosis regulation in the injury induced by complete cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.
