Cardioplegic (and organ preservation) solutions were initially designed to protect the myocardium (cardiac myocytes) during cardiac surgery (and heart transplantation). Due to the differences between the cardiac myocytes and vascular (endothelial and smooth muscle) cells in structure and function, the solutions may have adverse effect on coronary vascular cells. However, such effect is often complicated by many other factors such as ischemiareperfusion injury, temperature, and perfusion pressure or duration. In evaluation of the effect of a solution on the coronary endothelial function, a number of points should be taken into consideration. First, the overall effect on endothelium should be identified. Second, the effect of the solution on the individual endothelium-derived relaxing factors (nitric oxide, prostacylin, and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor) must be distinguished. Third, the effect of each major component of the solution should be investigated. Fourth, the effect of a variety of new additives in the solution may be studied. In the last decades, we have focused our research on the endothelial function during open heart surgery and have for the first time found that high potassium concentration impairs the EDHF-mediated function. This review attempts to discuss the above issues based on available literature in order to provide information for further development of cardioplegic or organ preservation solutions.

Objective: To investigate the impact of levosimendan on mortality in patients with severe heart failure (HF) by Meta-analysis. Methods: We search the PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Central Registry of cardiovascular disease to identify all randomized impact of levosimendan vs other medications. The document retrieval was from the establishment of each database until 2014-07. The literatures were taken based on Jadad scale standard and the qualified control study was used without dose and time restrictions by Rev Man 5.2 soft ware, and a total of 37 articles with 4470 patients were finally enrolled for Meta-analysis. Results: Compared with controlling medications, levosimendan could decrease the mortality in patients with cardiac disease caused severe HF (RR: 0.85; 95% CI 0.75-0.97;P=0.02), and cardiac surgery caused severe HF (RR: 0.49; 95% CI 0.28-0.85;P=0.01). Compared with dobutamine, levosimendan could reduce the mortality in patients with severe HF (RR: 0.84; 95% CI 0.73-0.99;P=0.02) and severe ischemic HF (RR: 0.85; 95% CI 0.73-0.99;P=0.04). Conclusion: Levosimendan may reduce the mortality in patients with severe HF caused by cardiac disease, cardiac surgery and ischemic cardiac injury.

Objective To investigate whether acupuncture can prevent postoperative nauseaand vomiting (PONV)in patients received breast surgery. Methods Two hundred and forty patients were randomly divided into the acupuncture group and the control group. Patients in the acupuncture group were treated at bilateral Hegu (L4) and Neiguan (P6) after surgery. Patients in the control group received no any interventions. The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, the number of complete remission and the remedial treatment were record ed. Results The incidences of nausea and vomiting in the acupuncture group were lower than those in the control group from 2 h to 6 h post-operation, with less need of remedy treatment (P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion Acupuncture in preventing nausea and vomiting after breast surgery owns a certain value in the early postoperative (6 h) stage, with effectively reducing the occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

Objective To analyse status of peripheral blood leukemic cells detected by flow cytometry in patients with acute leu‐kemia(AL) ,and to provide references for evaluating clinical efficacy and prognosis of AL .Methods The peripheral blood specimens of 87 cases of patients with AL ,including 53 cases of patients with acute myelocytic leukemia and 34 cases of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia ,were detected by using flow cytometry ,morphological changes in bone marrow cells were detected ,as well . Results The sensitivity ,specificity and positive predictive value in determination of acute myelocytic leukemia was 95 .6% ,34 .5%and 81 .3% respectively ,and those in acute lymphoblastic leukemia was 87 .3% ,45 .6% and 68 .9% respectively ,statistically signif‐icant differences were found in sensitivity ,specificity and positive predictive value (P<0 .05) .A total of 19 cases with negative mini‐mal residual disease had recurrence(26 .31% ) after 24 months ,and 68 cases with positive minimal residual disease had recurrence (86 .76% ) after 24 months ,and the recurrence rate between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Among all pa‐tients with positive minimal residual disease ,the recurrence rate in patients with high expression level of minimal residual disease (88 .23% ) was higher than that in patients with low expression level of minimal residual disease (47 .09% ) ,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Flow cytometric analysis of peripheral blood leukemic cells may has significance for diagnosing relapse of AL and guiding clinical medication .

Mechanical ventilation is an important life support method.Correct parameter adjustment of mechanical ventilation depends on assessment of Patient's respiratory and the effectiveness of mechanical venfilation.Blood gas monitoring is the most important way to assess the effectiveness of mechanical ventilation.Guidance of blood gas monitoring in parameter adjustment of mechanical venfilation is the key of successful mechanical ventilation.

The liver is the most common site of distant metastasis of colorectal cancer. In order to study colorectal cancer metastasis to the liver, establishing and choosing appropriate mouse model is crucially im-portant. In this review, we mainly discuss the mouse models of colorectal cancer and liver metastases: Tumor fragments or cancer cells orthotopic transplant to eoloncecal part, injecting cancer cells into the spleen, portal injection of cancer cells, colorectal cancer implantation to the subcapsular of the liver.

BACKGROUND: Previous research has indicated that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells had immunological regulation and hematopoiesis role. There were significant differences in immunological regulation and hemopoietic function between patients with aplastic anemia and normal cases. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the in vitro biological characteristics and its immune regulation defects of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells from patients with aplastic anemia.METHODS: A computer-based online search was conducted in PUMMED (1987-2009) and VIP database (1989-2009) with the key words of "mesenchymal stem cell, bone marrow" in both Chinese and English. There were 55 articles in total. Articles which were related to biological characteristics and its immune regulation defects of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells were included; however, duplicated articles were excluded. Finally, 32 articles were included, containing 3 reviews in English, 23 original articles in English, and 6 original articles in Chinese. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells had the capacities of high proliferation, self-renewal and multilineage differentiation; in addition they had the roles of supporting hematopoiesis, promoting implantation and hematopoietic reconstitution in vivo. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells still had the effects of negative immune regulation and reducing the incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Aplastic anemia correlated with hematopoietic stem cells in the pathogenesis of intrinsic defects in the proliferation or differentiation of hematopoietic microenvironment and immune system abnormalities and other related disorders. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells of patients with aplastic anemia played an important role in the pathogenesis of this disease.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of application timing of carboporst tromethamine on postpartum hemor-rhage and hemodynamics of cesarean section women with centralplacenta previa. METHODS:Totally 138 parturient women with central placenta previa selected from our hospital during Jan.-Dec. 2015 were divided into observation group and control group ac-cording to random number table,with 69 cases in each group. Both groups received cesarean section. Control group was given Car-boporst tromethamine injection 250 μg on uterine body after the delivery of placenta. Observation group was given Carboporst tro-methamine injection 250 μg on corpora uteri immediately after umbilical cord cutting. The operation duration,intraoperative and postoperative blood loss were observed in 2 groups. The preoperative and postoperative 24 h hemodynamic index,coagulation func-tion and corpora uteri were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The operation duration of observation group was significantly shorter than control group;intraoperative blood loss and 24h blood loss of observation group were significantly less than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in preoperative hemodynamic index and coagula-tion function index between 2 groups before surgery(P>0.05). 24 h after surgery,SBP,DBP,MAP,FIB and D-D of 2 groups were decreased significantly,while HR of them were increased significantly;the observation group was significantly better than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR (15.94% vs. 13.04%) between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Carboporst tromethamine after omphalotomy via uterine body helps to shorten the operation time,reduce intraoperative blood loss,maintain hemodynamic indexes stable and improve coagulation func-tion of cesarean section women with central placenta previa ,with good safety.
