We sought to determine the efficacy of ramosetron in the prevention of nausea and vomiting during emergency cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia with strict controls of causative factors.A total of 206 parturients participated in a randomized,single-blind and placebo-controlled trial.They received an intravenous injection of either ramosetron 0.3 mg or normal saline immediately after cord clamping.The primary outcome was the presence of postdelivery nausea and vomiting.Secondary outcomes included the need for rescue antiemetic,hypotension,pain and adverse effects.The incidence of postdelivery nausea and vomiting was 10.7％ in the ramosetron group vs.28.2％ in the control group (P ＜ 0.01 ).The incidence of intraoperative hypotension and postdelivery was similar in both groups.The incidence of postdelivery pain and the requirement for rescue antiemetic were similar in both groups.Ramosetron 0.3 mg is effective in the prevention of postdelivery nausea and vomiting during cesarean delivery.

Objective To establish a new RP-HPLC method for simultaneous determination of chlorogenic acid,forsythin, and baicalin in shuanghuanglian powder for injection after ultrasonic atomization. Methods Hypersil ODS2 C18(250 mmí4. 6 mm,5 μm) was used as the chromatographic column. The mobile phase was methanol-0. 2% phosphate acid solution (4060). Flow rate was 1. 0 mL·min-1 . Sample volume was 5μL. Column temperature was 30℃. Detection wavelength was 324 nm at 0-10 min and 277 nm at 10-25 min. Results Contents of chlorogenic acid,forsythin, and baicalin had good linear relationship with the respective peak area (r≥0. 999 7) within the scope of the sample volume. The RSD was <2% for precision, reproducibility, and stability. Recovery rate was 98. 50%-101. 12% (n=6). Conclusion The method is rapid, accurate and reproducible, with high resolution. It can determine the content of three kinds of components at the same time. The three components in shuanghuanglian powder for injection did not change significantly before and after ultrasonic atomization.

A novel series of fingolimod analogues containing diphenyl ether moiety were designed and synthesized based on the modification of immunosuppressive agent fingolimod used in the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Compounds were evaluated in vivo for lymphopenic activity and heart rate affection. Most compounds showed moderate lymphopenic activity. It is worth noting that compounds 6c, 6d and 14c-14e showed considerable immunosuppressive activities comparable to fingolimod. And compound 14e had no effect on heart rate.

Objective To evaluate characteristics of CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT in pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma (PSH).Methods A retrospective study involving 12 patients (2 males,10 females;24-80 years old) confirmed as PSH by pathology from May 2012 to July 2014 was investigated.All patients underwent chest CT scan,including enhanced CT;and 5 cases underwent whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT.All imaging data were collected and analyzed to find out a more effective diagnostic method.Results In 12 PSH patients,9 had single lesion,of which 4 involved left lung and 5 right lung.The rest 3 patients including 1 with two nodules located in the right lower lobe,and 2 with multiple nodules scattered in several lobes.Plain CT showed all lesions had uniformly isodensity,4 with calcification,3 with air meniscus sign.Contrast-enhanced CT examinations showed that the majority lesions were prominent enhancement and few moderate enhancement,all lesions showed vessel marginating sign and 6 with cystic and necrosis area.18F-FDG PET/CT examinations showed that the lesions displayed patchy pattern of mild to moderate uptake with SUVmax 2.2--4.0.Conclusions The characteristic CT features of PSH,especially the contrast-enhanced CT imaging,are important for diagnosis.18F-FDG PET/CT findings are extremely helpful in differentiating PSH from malignant lesions.

Aim To explore the effect of Cx43 over-expression on proliferation of C6 cells and its mechanisms by transfecting pCMV-Cx43cDNA plasmid into C6 cells.Methods pCMV-Cx43cDNA plasmid was transfected into C6 cells by liposome to up-regulate the expression of Cx43, and C6 cells with over-expression of Cx43 was stably cloned by using G418.Determination of cell doubling time and soft agar colony formation assay to detect the degree of cell proliferation.The cells were treated with ERK1/2 specific blocker PD98059(30 μmol·L-1) and p38MAPK specific blocker SB202190(10 μmol·L-1)respectively, the expression of Cx43, p-Cx43, p-ERK1/2 and p-p38MAPK of each group were detected by Western blot, and the activity of each group was detected by MTT Assay.Results pCMV-Cx43cDNA plasmid was transfected into C6 cells successfully.Cell lines with over-expression Cx43(C6-Cx43) or empty vector (C6-pCMV) were stably selected by using G418.Determination of cell doubling time and soft agar colony formation experiments showed that the proliferative rate and the colony number of C6-Cx43 group were significantly decreased, compared with that of C6 group and C6-pCMV group(P<0.01);ERK1/2, p38MAPK specific blockers were treated with each group,Western blot showed that the expression of Cx43 protein was increased(P<0.01), while p-Cx43 protein was decreased (P<0.05) in C6-Cx43+PD98059 group and C6-Cx43+SB202190 group,compared with that of C6-Cx43 group.Conclusion Cx43 may decrease the proliferation of glioma cells through ERK1/2, p38MAPK pathways.

Objective To explore the clinical value of ureteroscopy and minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy ( MPCNL) in the treatment of ureteral calculi patients with acute renal dysfunction .Methods Clini-cal data of 124 ureteral calculi patients with acute renal dysfunction were retrospectively analyzed .86 cases were trea-ted with holmium-laser lithotripsy under ureteroscope .38 cases were treated with MPCNL under the guide of ultra-sound.Results Three months after operation ,the stone clearance rate was 100%,and no severe complications were observed.The renal function decreased to normal levels in 102 cases(82.3%).Conclusion The holmium laser lith-otripsy under ureteroscope and MPCNL can deal with double sites of ureteral calculi ,and offer advantages with less in-vasion,safety and efficiency ,which can be the first choice for the ureteral calculi combined with acute renal dysfunc -tion.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy of piperacillin/tazobactam in the management of burn infection.

METHODSSixty-three burn patients were enrolled in the study with burn sepsis or burn area more than 50%TBSA or full skin loss more than 30% TBSA. The administration regime of the antibiotics was 4.5 g intravenously administered every 8 hours in the treatment of burn sepsis or in the prophylactic management. The effectiveness was identified when the septic symptoms disappeared or focal infection did not develop into sepsis.

RESULTSThe overall clinical efficacy was 90.4%, and success in sepsis (control) was 75%. Furthermore, 95.7% of the focal infection was prevented from developing into systemic infection. The bacterial clearance rates were 71.4% and 51.4% in treatment and prophylaxis groups, respectively.

CONCLUSIONPiperacillin/taxobactam was effective in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of burn sepsis caused by bacteria susceptible to it, so it could be applied empirically.

Benign gallbladder diseases are common diseases in general surgery, including gallstones, polypoid lesions, cholecystitis, etc. In China, the treatment of benign gallbladder diseases is still not standardized, which mainly shows in following aspects: (1)the tendency of cholecystectomy to all gallbladder diseases may result in the incidence of abdominal pain, distension, diarrhea and bile duct injury after surgery; (2)the attitude of "no-surgery" in which the standard cholecystectomy fails to implement in time for the benign gallbladder diseases with potential high-risk factors for gallbladder cancer, as a result, patients develop occurrence of gallbladder cancer. Especially, gallbladder sparing surgery is an unscientific surgery for benign gallbladder diseases, the gallbladder may become a high-risk factor for cancer after the operation. Implementation of standard cholecystectomy in time for benign gallbladder diseases with potential high risk gallbladder cancer can not only significantly reduce the incidence of gallbladder cancer, but also significantly improve the early diagnosis and the prognosis. Based on current literatures, the authors analyze the treatment status of benign gallbladder diseases, and investigate the disputes and problems in surgical indications, operation time and the selection of treatments of benign gallbladder diseases.
