Objective To observe the effects of combined penebyclidine hydrochloride-ketamine-propofoi intravenous anesthesia with local anesthesia in transcatheter occlusion of congenital heart diseases (CHD).Methods Eighty-six patients suffered in CHD scheduled for transcatheter Amplatzer occlusio were divided randomly and averagely into two groups with 43 cases each.Group A received combined ketamine--propofol ina'avenous anesthesia with local anesthesia. Group B received combined hydrochloride-ketamine-propofol intavenous anesthesia with local anesthesia.Results The rate of upper airway obstruction of child patient that was caused by increased oral secretion in group B (4.7%) was significantly lower than that in group A(14.0%) (P ＜ 0.05 ).The upper airway obsa-uction was removed by aspirating sputum and oxygen therapy in group A,while removed "by decreasing anesthetic depth in group B.The rate of arrhythmia in operation,the time of operation and wake-up time were not significantly different between two groups [37.2%,(2.65±1.85)h,(45.4±15.2)min in group A,but 34.9%,(2.58±1.74)h,(50.2±17.3)rain in group B (P＞0.05)].Conclusion The combined penehyclidine hydrochloride-ketamine-propofol intravenous anesthesia with local anesthesia is feasible and safe in transcatheter occlusion of congenital heart diseases.

Objective To investigate the effect of fusidic acid cream on inflammatory reaction caused by skin barrier damage.Methods Eight male SKH-1 hairless mice were included in this study.The back of each of these mice were equally divided into six regions measuring 1 cm × 2 cm in size,which were then assigned into six groups:blank control group remaining untreated,barrier-impaired group,barrier-impaired and fusidic acid-treated group,barrier-impaired and vehicle-treated group,barrier-unimpaired and fusidic acid-treated group,barrierunimpaired and vehicle-treated group.Stratum corneum was removed by adhesive tape stripping to establish an animal model of acute skin barrier damage in the corresponding skin regions of these mice,and fusidic acid cream or vehicle was topically applied to the corresponding regions once.Twelve hours later,skin surface swab samples were collected from the back of these mice followed by bacterial culture and colony counting.Mice were then sacrificed,and skin tissue specimens were resected from these mice,and subjected to real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR for the measurement of the mRNA expressions of myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88),interleukin-1α (IL-1α),IL-6,epidermal antibacterial peptides S100a8 and S100a9.Statistical analysis was carried out by repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) and least significant difference (LSD) test.Results The mRNA expressions of MyD88,IL-1α,IL-6,S100a8 and S100a9 were all significantly higher in the barrier-impaired group than in the blank control group (all P ＜ 0.05).Specifically,the mRNA expression level of MyD88 in the barrier-impaired group was 8 times that in the blank control group (8.3 ± 3.0 vs.0.8 ± 0.4).Compared with the barrier-impaired group,the barrier-impaired and fusidic acid-treated group showed a significant decrease in the mRNA expressions of IL-1α (2.8 ± 0.3 vs.20.1 ± 10.0,F =47.11,P ＜ 0.01),IL-6 (1.6 ± 2.3 vs.9.4 ± 4.0,F =16.18,P＜ 0.01),S100a8 (1.5 ± 1.4 vs.5.0 ± 1.6,F=59.71,P＜ 0.05) and S100a9 (1.2 ± 0.7 vs.3.4 ± 1.6,F=21.94,P ＜ 0.05).Conlusions Fusidic acid cream could attenuate the inflammatory reaction caused by acute skin barrier damage,which might partly explain its action mechanism in the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases.

Objective To evaluate the two methods for quantitative hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA test. Methods The Hybrid Capture II system from Digene Co. and Real Time PCR fluorimetry quantitative HBV DNA test kit from PIJI Bio Technical Development Company Ltd. were used to detect sera HBV DNA in sera of patients with chronic hepatitis B. Results With the two quantitative methods, the positive rates of HBV DNA were 98 6% and 94.6% respectively. The concordant rate of these two methods was 93.2%. In assessing the sensitivity of the two kits with a serial of 10 fold diluted patients′s sera, PG kit could test 10 -7 of diluted serum, and HC II could test 10 -6 . The test value of HC II was more accurate in quantitation than PG kit especially in higher titer of HBV DNA. Whereas in the case of low titer of HBV DNA, the deviation of test value increased in both two methods. For monitoring the anti virus effect with quantitative HBV DNA in CHB patients, these two methods had same sensitivity, and the test value of HBV DNA had the same trend of change. Conclusion HC II system and PG test kit were sensitive and reliable, and they were worthy of monitoring the anti virus efficacy and of clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the expression and correlation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1?(HIF-1?),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and sFlt-1 in the preeclampsia placenta,and discuss their significance in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.Methods Placentas were collected from 20 pregnant women with preeclampsia as study group and 15 normal pregnant women as control group.The expressions of HIF-1?,VEGF and sFlt-1 protein were semi-quantitatively analyzed with immunohistochemical assay and mRNA level was determined using reverse transcription polymerasc chain reaction(RT-PCR)technique. Results(1)the expression of HIF-1?and sFlt-1 protein in preeclampsia group obviously increased.Strong (+++)positive expression was observed in 9 and 11 cases respectively,significantly higher than in control group(2 and 3 cases)(P＜0.05),however,VEGF expression obviously reduced in preeclampsia group(P＜0.01).(2)the level of HIF-1?and sFlt-1 mRNA in preeclamptic placenta was 0.604?0.013, 0.898?0.041,significantly higher than 0.208?0.007 and 0.559?0.244 in normal placenta(P＜0.05). Although the level of VEGF mRNA increased in preeclampsia placenta,it was not significantly different from that in normal placenta(P＞0.05).The ratio of VEGF mRNA/sFlt-1 mRNA obviously reduced in preeclampsia group and was significantly lower than in control group(P＜0.05).(3)in preeclampsia group,HIF-1?mRNA expression was positively correlated with the expression of sFlt-1 mRNA(r=0.577, P＜0.05),and negatively correlated with the ratio of VEGF mRNA/sFlt-1 mRNA(r=-0.376,P＜0.05).Conclusion Abnormal high HIF-1?expression in preeclampsia placenta indicates that HIF-1?might play an important role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia,possibly through affecting the cytotrophoblastic invasion and placental vascular reconstruction via the modulation of VEGF and sFlt-1 gene transcription.
