Objective To investigate the clinical effects of mucosolvan on the respiratory tract in elderly patients with long-time tracheal intubation for upper abdominal operation.Methods A total of 88 elderly patients to receive upper abdominal surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups:the treatment group (n=41,treated with antibiotics and mucosolvan 90 mg,iv,bid,for 7 consecutive days) and the control group (n=39,with the same antibiotics but without mucosolvan).Patients indwelling endotracheal tube≤3 hours were excluded.Lung function [forced vital capacity (FVC),forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1),FEV1/FVC ratios (FEV1％)],blood gas analysis (pH,PaCO2,PaO2) and lung condition changes were compared between the two groups before and after surgery.Results There was a significant difference in blood gas analysis between the two groups 3 days after surgery (P＜0.05).There were differences in FEV1 and FEV1％ between the two groups 5 days after surgery (P＜0.05),but no differences were found in FVC in the two groups before versus after surgery.There were significant differences in the incidences of pulmonary infection and atelectasis between the treatment group and the control group [4.9 ％ vs.23.1％ (2 cases vs.9 cases),0％ vs.10.3％ (0 cases vs.4 cases),respectively,both P＜0.05].Conclusions Mucosolvan has a better protective effect on the respiratory tract in elderly patients undergoing upper abdominal surgery and the synergies can be achieved in combination with antibiotics.

Objective To value the significance of TGFBR2 gene in mediating HepG2 cell proliferation by RNA interference technology. Methods Three kinds of siRNAs targeting TGFBR2 gene were designed, synthesized and transfected into HepG2 cells via lipofetamine2000. Among three kinds of siRNAs, only the one with the most interference efficacy was selected and the correspondent DNA sequence was inserted into plasmid pEGFP-N3. Then the recombinant plasmid of siRNA-pEGFP-N3 was transfected into HepG2 cell and western blot was used to detect the protein level of TGFBR2. Then, TGF-β1 was used to stimulate HepG2 cells with or without siRNA interference and proliferation of HepG2 cells was observed. Results Among these three siRNAs, siRN-1 appeared to be the most effective. After stimulated by 5ng/mL TGF-β1, proliferation of HepG2 cells showed a marked increase in siRNA-1 group compared with blank and siRNA-NC groups (P<0.05). For all that, the proliferation rate was still lower than that in normal HepG2 cell group without TGF-β1 stimulation. Conclusion By silencing TGFBR2 gene, inhibition of TGF-β1 signaling pathway to HepG2 cells could be decreased, thereby enhancing the cell proliferation.

Objective To observe the effect and safety of helicobacter pylori eradication by doxycycline, levofloxacin,bismuth potassium citrate combined with omeprazole.Methods 240 patients who infected helicobacter pylori were selected,and were randomly divided into four groups:treatment group(doxycycline,levofloxacin,bismuth potassium citrate,omeprazole),control group A(doxycycline,levofloxacin,omeprazole),control group B(amoxicillin, clarithromycin,bismuth potassium citrate,omeprazole),control group C (amoxicillin,clarithromycin,omeprazole), 60 patients in each group.Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment for 7 days,patients with gastritis stop after the course of the treatment,peptic ulcer patients continue taking omeprazole 5 weeks after 7 days treatment.All patients stopped medicine 2 weeks accepted 14 carbon breath test.And adverse events were investigated.Results In the treatment group and the control group A,B,C,the helicobacter pylori eradication rates were 93.3%,80.0%,91.7%, 75.0%.Compared with group A,the treatment group helicobacter pylori eradication rate increased significantly(χ2 =4.61,P <0.05 ).Compared with group C,the treatment group helicobacter pylori eradication rate increased significantly(χ2 =7.57,P <0.05).But compared with group B,the treatment group helicobacter pylori eradication rate had no significant difference(χ2 =0.12,P >0.05).Compared with the treatment group,group B had high inci-dence of oral odor(χ2 =6.56,P <0.05).Compared with the treatment group,group C had high incidence of oral odor (χ2 =5.46,P <0.05).Conclusion Doxycycline,levofloxacin,bismuth potassium citrate combined with omeprazole can improve the helicobacter pylori eradication rate significantly,and with low price,has little side effect,no need of penicillin skin test,can used for the patients poverty or allergic to penicillin.
