Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 2009;29(4):305-307
Objective To investigate the effects of inhalation of different concentrations of nitrous oxide on intracuff pressure (ICP) of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in patients during general anesthesia. Methods Forty-right ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 25-64 yr undergoing elective operations under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=12 each): group C (100 %O2, group N2 (65 % O2 + 35%N2O), group N2 (50%O2 + 50 % N2O), and group N3 (35%O2 + 65%N2O). A suitable model of the LMA was selected according to height and weight. Anesthesia was induced with Ⅳ propofol 1.5-2.0 mg/kg, fentanyl 2-3 μg/kg, lidocaine 1-2 mg/kg and vecuronium 0.08-0.1 mg/kg and maintained with intravenous infusion of propofol and intermittent boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium. After the successful placement of LMA, the air was injected into the cuff to make intracuff pressure (ICP) reach 40 cm H2O (baseline). The ICP were recorded at 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 min (T1-6) following inhalation of N2O. Results The ICP grandually increased with the increase in the concentration of N2O (P<0.05). The ICP decreased at T2-6 in group C, but increased at T2-6 in group N1 and at T1-6 in group N2,3 as compared with baseline(P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between the ICP and inhalation time in group N1-3(r1-3=0.968,0.987,0.973 respectively, P<0.05). Conclusion The inhalation of N2O can increase the ICP in concentration- and time-dependent manners,
6.Mitochondria abnormality and pulmonary arterial hypertension
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2017;30(2):204-207
Pulmonary arterial hypertension ( PAH) is a progressive lethal vascular disease, which is characterized by pulmo-nary vasoconstriction and vascular remodeling. Recent studies have indicated that the metabolic theory, centered on the loss of mito-chondrial function, plays a key role in the occurrence and development of PAH. This theory links mitochondrial-related changes of ap-optosis-resistance, glycolysis enhancement, mROS decrease and aberrant mitochondrial dynamics to multiple molecular abnormalities, which may provide new ideas for exploring more comprehensive and specific treatment strategies. This article reviews the progresses in mitochondrial abnormality in PAH.
7.Proliferation and differentiation of transplanted neural stem cells in the damaged striatum of Parkinson’s disease rats
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(36):5843-5847
BACKGROUND:In recent years, cel transplantation therapy is widely used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease with satisfactory outcomes. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the proliferation and differentiation of transplanted neural stem cel s in Parkinson’s disease rats, thereby providing a new theoretical basis for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. METHODS:Neural stem cel s from the brain tissues of rats were isolated and cultured in vitro using col agenase digestion method. Unilateral rat model of Parkinson’s disease was made by 6-hydroxydopamine method, and the successful rat models were divided into model group and cel transplantation group, with seven rats in each group. The rats in the model group were given 4 mL normal saline at the damaged striatum, and those in the cel transplantation group were injected 5μL green fluorescent protein-labeled neural stem cel s (1×109/L) into the damaged striatum. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After cel transplantation, the positive area of tyrosine hydroxylase was significantly lower in the cel transplantation group than the model group. Compared with the model group, the expression level of Ptx3 mRNA was significantly higher in the cel transplantation group at 7, 14, 28 days after cel transplantation and the expression of SHH mRNA was significantly higher in the cel transplantation group at 14 and 28 days after cel transplantation. However, there was no difference in the expression of Nurrl mRNA between the two groups. These findings indicate that neural stem cel s injected into the damaged striatum of rats can differentiate into dopaminergic neurons, which bring a breakthrough in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.
8.Observation of pulmonary artery motion curve with anatomical M-mode echocardiography and analysis of influential factors
Chinese Journal of Medical Imaging Technology 2009;25(7):1192-1194
Objective To observe the pulmonary artery motion curve with anatomical M-mode echocardiography, and to investigate its influential factors. Methods The pulmonary artery motion curve was detected and pulsating amplitude of pulmonary artery wall (PAWPA) was measured with anatomical M-mode echocardiography in 160 patients with normal pulmonary artery pressure. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to assess inter-observer conisitency of PAWPA measurements between two investigators who were blinded to each other's findings, and intra-observer consistency of PAWPA with repeating the measurements on two occasions by the same investigator in 20 randomly selected cases. Stepwise multiple regression was used to analyze the following potential influential factors of PAWPA: age, gender, heart rate, blood pressure, atherosclerosis, right atrial diameter, and pulmonary insufficiency. Results There was good consistency between two independent observers' measurements and between two occasions in the same observer's measurements for PAWPA with ICC values of 0.91 (95% CI, 0.37-0.99) and 0.95 (95% CI, 0.60-0.99), respectively. PAWPA was negatively correlated with age (β=-0.47, P<0.001) and heart rate (β=-0.29, P<0.005). There was no correlation of PAWPA with gender, blood pressure, atherosclerosis, right atrial diameter, and pulmonary insufficiency. Conclusion Anatomical M-mode echocardiography can be used for measuring PAWPA with good consistency and reproducibility. In normal pulmonary artery pressure cases, PAWPA is affected by age and heart rate.

10.Attention Should be Paid to Studies on Prophylaxis of Colorectal Cancer via Intervention on Environmental ;Factors
Chinese Journal of Gastroenterology 2017;22(1):1-3
Most colorectal cancers develop from adenomas. Environmental factors play an important role in the development and progression of adenoma. Recently,epidemiologic investigations on lifestyle change including diet and exercise and drug intervention studies have proved the relationship between environmental factors and colorectal cancer. Screening,polypectomy and surveillance via colonoscopy are the main measures of colorectal cancer prevention. However, the efficacy is unsatisfactory. Therefore,attention should be paid to studies on colorectal cancer prophylaxis via intervention on environmental factors. Emphasis should be put on various aspects of environmental intervention in clinical practice,and prophylaxis strategies should be generated individually in accordance with the local condition and situation.
