Respiratory depression is a common adverse effect of opioids .Currently, the mechanisms and manage-ment of opioid-induced respiratory depression ( OIRD) are one of the research foci .OIRD arises from stimulation ofμ-opioid receptors in the pre-Botzinger complex and the Kolliker-Fuse neurons .Adenylyl cyclase , calcium chan-nels, and G-protein-gated inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels may be the key cellular signaling mecha-nisms of OIRD .

Objective To investigate tile clinical significance of IL-13 gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC) and level of plasma IL-13 from patients with lupus nephritis(LN). Methods Ten healthy volunteers and 16 patients with LN were included in this study. All patients had been performed percutaneous renal biopsy and examined by light and immunofluorescence microscopy. The expression of IL-13 nRNA in PBMC was evaluated by RT-PCR. The level of plasma IL-13 was determined using an IL-13 specific ELISA. Results The expression of IL-13 mRNA in PBMC and the levels of Plasma IL-13 from patients with LN were significantly higher than those of the controls(l .99 ? 0.29 vs 0.68 ? 0. 15, P

Objective To study the relation of leptin,TNF-? in serum of patients with metabolic syndrome and its components.Methods Test leptin and TNF-? level of residents over 20 years old in two communities in Harbin City,grouping case-control study base on the constitutive ratio of actual age.Results Leptin was associated with obesity,and the higher leptin levels,the higher risk of suffering from metabolic syndrome.The relationship between leptin levels and metabolic syndrome was affected by age and gender.The lower level of TNF-?,the higher risk of metabolic syndrome.The patients with lower level of TNF-? were 1.859 times more likely to suffer from disease compared with people with higher level.Conclusion The effects of high level of leptin are significant on metabolic syndrome,especially for old males,and are associated with obesity component.TNF-? is related to plasma glucose and blood presure,and is good for metabolic syndrome,but its biological mechenism should be researched continuously.

Objective To study the relationship between abnormal blood pressure distribution characteristics and the influencing factors for the prevention of hypertension and low blood pressure to provide reference. Methods Regarding the Guangzhou City adult group as the research object,we analyzed the distribution of the adults abnormal blood pressure in age, gender , urban and rural areas, as well as of occupations. Results The detection rate of blood pressure abnormalities was 15.9 % , which accounted for 12.4% of hypertension, 3.5% of hypotension. On the whole, the detection rate of hypertension was 18% in rural, higher than 9.8% in urban. The detection rate of hypotension in rural areas was 2.3% , 4.0% in urban. The detection rate of hypertension of men was high than that of women, and the detection rate of hypertension gradually increased by the age increased. At the same time, hypertension and hypotension was significantly affected with the factors of education, urban and rural areas, obesity and so on. Conclusion The detection rate of hypertension is high in rural areas than that in urban,and men than women, and the detection rate of low blood pressure is on the opposite. Both of them is significantly affected by the factors of education, urban and rural areas, obesity and so on.

AIM To study the effects of parathyroid hormone(PTH) on intracellular calcium concentration([Ca 2+ ] i), hypertrophy and apoptosis in rat cardiomyocytes. METHODS Neonatal rat cardiomyocyte hypertrophic response was assayed by measuring cell surface area and protein content. [Ca 2+ ] i was measured by confocal microscope using Fluo 3/AM as fluorescent indicator.Apoptosis was determined by flow cytometer and electron microscope. RESULTS After 7 d exposure to PTH 1～34 of 0 01 and 0 1 ?mol?L -1 ,[Ca 2+ ] i,surface area and protein content,and apoptosis rate(APO) of cardiomyocytes were significantly increased,especially in high concentration groups. While application of both nifedipine and PTH 1～34 significantly decreased lose indicators, they were still markedly higher than normal. CONCLUSIONS PTH 1～34 dose dependently induces hypertrophy and apoptosis of cardiomyocyte,and this is attributed able to augmented entry of calcium into cell via voltage dependent Ca 2+ channel.

Colorectal cancer( CRC) has become one of the major cancer threatening residents′health all around the world, and considerable resources are needed for its prevention and control.Economics evaluation could provide the basis of decision-making for improving the allocation efficiency of health resources in the field of CRC prevention and control.This paper comprehensively reviewed the papers that have been published in the field of colorectal cancer screening,from the points of view of published time,regional economic evaluation re-search,evaluation method,the research angle,input and output measurement,model,recommend strategy.

Objective To investigate the situation of admission nursing evaluation on elderly patients of geriatrics departments in several Shanghai comprehensive hospitals, and the results will be the base for designing elderly patient′s comprehensive admission nursing evaluation form. Methods 41 nurse managers of geriatrics department in Shanghai comprehensive hospitals were selected as research object. Self-designed questionnaire included general data, elderly patient admission nursing evaluation content and the importance of each item. Results The effective recovery rate was 97.56%(40/41). 98%(39/40) hospitals considered that elderly patients need to have a comprehensive assessment according to the elderly characteristics, only 18%(7/40) hospitals used the special nursing evaluation form for elderly patients. The score of importance of five dimensions were as follows: geriatric syndromes or problems scored (4.64 ± 0.38), physical function assessment scored (4.60 ± 0.46), physiological function assessment scored (4.53 ± 0.45), mental and psychological assessment scored (4.10 ± 0.57) and social assessment scored (4.07±0.52). The score of importance of 29 items were as follows:fall assessment scored (4.90±0.30), pressure ulcer assessment scored (4.85 ± 0.36), activities of daily living scored (4.75 ± 0.44), urinary incontinence assessment scored (4.70 ± 0.52), pain assessment scored (4.70 ± 0.46). Conclusions It is of great significance to carry on the comprehensive admission nursing evaluation for the elderly patients, which needs to be valued and strengthened.

BACKGROUND:Previous study has found that hsa-miR-182 is probably related to the apoptosis-related genes such as cytochrome C (Cycs C) and calcineurin subunit CnB (PPP3R1) in nucleus pulposus cells.
OBJECTIVE:To determine whether miR-182 plays a regulatory role in nucleus pulposus cel apoptosis by detecting the relative gene expression levels after transfecting miR-182 with Cycs C and PPP3R1 into nucleus pulposus cel s via plasmid delivery.
METHODS:After a bioinformatics prediction about miR-182, miR-182 and target genes were transfected into the nucleus pulposus cel s, and at the same time, blank control group was established. Then the expression levels of the target genes were detected through cel lysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:miR-182 significantly inhibited the expression of Cycs C in nucleus pulposus cel s compared with the blank control group (P<0.05). Compared with the blank control group, miR-182 made no inhibitory effect on the expression of PPP3R1. These findings suggest that miR-182 may play a regulatory part in nucleus pulposus cel apoptosis by inhibiting the expression of Cycs C.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution scope of the pan-drug resistant bacteria in the SICU patients including their producing environment and high risk factors in these two years and to approach its prevention and treatment policy. METHODS The distribution scope and the high risk factors of the pan-drug resistant bacteria in SICU were reviewed and analyzed from Jan 2005 to Jan 2007.RESULTS There were 11 cases in the period from Jan 2005 to Jan 2006; and was only 1 case from Jan 2006 to Jan 2007. CONCLUSIONS To establish the drug resistance monitoring system, attach great importance to isolation and education, to monitor the original region of the pan-drug resistant bacteria, and to adopt the comprehensive antibiotic policy to control the drug resistant bacteria. Among them, the early effective isolation of high risk patients may be very effective to reduce the producing and developing of the pan-drug resistant bacteria.
