Objective To investigate the effect of prophylaxis against respiratory and circulation depression caused by propofol during painless colonoscopy by intravenous doxpram with small dose.Methods 80 patients undergoing painless colonoscopy were randomly divided into the control group(A group) and the doxpram group(B group).All patients used propofol,and then used propofol after induction.In group B,doxpram was injected before anesthesia.The degree and incidence rate of respiratory and circulotion depression,the dose of propofol,the awake time,the examination time,the complication during anesthesia and awake were monitored.Results The SBP,DBP,SpO2,RR during anesthesia were obviously lower in group A than in group B(P

BACKGROUND:The researches about the effect of retinoic acid on the proliferation of adipose-derived stem cells are rare, and the researches on the testosterone are mainly on the inhibition of cellaging. OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of retinoic acid and testosterone or combination on the cellcycle of adipose derived stem cells. METHODS:Adipose derived stem cells were isolated from adult female Sprague Dawley rats with 2 months age and cultured in vitro til passage 3 adipose derived stem cells, and then the 3rd passage adipose-derived stem cells were performed with adipogenic induction, osteogenic induction and surface marker identification. The cells were divided into six groups:(1) Control group;(2) 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid group;(3) Retinoic acid group;(4) 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group;(5) 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group;(6) Testosterone group. The adipose-derived stem cells in the control group were cultured with Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium+10%fetal bovine serum culture medium, and the adipose-derived stem cells in the other five groups were induced with corresponding dose of retinoic acid and testosterone on the basis of control group. After cultured for 36 hours, the flow cytometry was used to detect the changes of cellcycle. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, cellproportions in phase G 1 of 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid group and 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid group were increased significantly, and the cellproportions in phase S were decreased. Compared with control group, the cellproportion in phase G 1 of testosterone group was significantly reduced, and the cellproportion in phase S was increased. Compared with 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid group and 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid group, cellproportions in phase G 1 of 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group and 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group were reduced significantly and the cellproportions in phase S were increased. Retinoic acid can inhibit the cellcycle of adipose-derived stem cells in phase G 1 , and delay the process of the cellcycle from phase G1 to phase S;while testosterone can promote the cellcycle of adipose-derived stem cells from phase G1 to phase S;the combination induction of retinoic acid and testosterone can accelerate the process of the cellcycle of adipose-derived stem cells from phase G 1 to phase S.

Objective To evaluate the effect of awake tracheal intubation with intubating larynegeal mask airway (ILMA) on stress responses of hypertensive patients.Methods Sixty hypertensive patients,aged 45-64 yr,with body mass index of 20.3-27.5 kg/m2,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,undergoing elective abdominal surgery under general anesthesia,were divided into 2 groups (n=30 each) using a random number table:direct laryngoscope group (group D) and ILMA group (group I).At 3 min after topical anesthesia (T1),while epiglottis and glottis were exposed with direct laryngoscope in group D or during ILMA insertion in group I (T2),immediately after completion of intubation (T3),when the maximum change in hemodynamics after intubation appeared (at about 15 s after tracheal tubes were placed,T4),and at 5 min after completion of intubation (T5),mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded,and blood samples were collected for determination of plasma epinephrine concentrations by radio-immunity method.Successful intubation at first attempt was recorded.Results Compared with the parameters at T1,the MAP,HR and plasma epinephrine concentrations were significantly increased at T2-4 in group D (P＜0.01),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above at the other time point in group I (P＞0.05).Compared with group D,the MAP,HR and plasma epinephrine concentrations were significantly decreased at T2-4 (P＜0.01),and no significant change was found in the success rate of intubation at first attempt in group I (P＞0.05).Conclusion Awake tracheal intubation with ILMA does not induce strong stress responses and is helpful in avoiding the occurrence of cerebrovascular accidents,thus increasing the safty of awake tracheal intubation in hypertensive patients.

OBJECTIVETo investigate whether adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) induced by retinoic acid (RA) in vitro express primordial germ cell marker alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and vasa.

METHODSADSCs were isolated from adult female SD rats and cultured in vitro. The third passage of ADSCs was identified by adipogenic differentiation, osteogenic differentiation and cell surface marker detection. The ADSCs were treated with 1×10(-5), 1×10(-6), or 1×10(-7) mol/L RA for 7 or 14 days, and the cellular expression of ALP was detected. vasa mRNA expression in ADSCs treated with 1×10(-5) mol/L RA for 7 days was detected using RT-PCR.

RESULTSThe OD value of ADSCs treated with 1×10(-5), 1×10(-6), or 1×10(-7) mol/L RA was 0.59∓0.04, 0.27∓0.07, and 0.15∓0.03 after a 7-day treatment, and was 0.42∓0.02, 0.34∓0.01, and 0.19∓0.02 after a 14-day treatment, respectively, demonstrating significantly enhanced ALP expression in RA-treated ADSCs compared with that in the control cells (0.07∓0.01 and 0.07∓0.01 at 7 and 14 days, respectively, P<0.01). The ADSCs showed a negative vasa mRNA expression after 1×10(-5) mol/L RA treatment for 7 days.

CONCLUSIONRA-induced ADSCs express ALP, a marker of primordial germ cells, but does not express the primordial germ cell marker vasa.
