Objective To effectually record cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) procedure, analyze and compare the CPR performance of all medical and nursing staffs to find out the existed information for the improvement of the quality of CPR and its survival rate. Methods The medical data were collected according to the Utstein Criteria and CPR event was automatically recorded by a digital video-recording system, by which hands-off times within 10 minutes of CPR and times for installation of chest compression machine, establishment of endotracheal intubation and establishment of the venous channel were analyzed. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to analyze the factors affecting CPR effect. Results ① During the period from December 2009 to December 2015, a total of 376 patients with cardiac arrest (CA) was registered, including 248 males and 128 females, with a median age of 68 (53, 78) years. Estimated median time interval from CA to CPR initiation was 5.0 (0.1, 20.0) minutes and there were 189 cases less than or equal to 5 minutes. The acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with 145 cases (38.6%) was the main etiology of CA. Initial shockable rhythm was found in 16 patients (7.0%) out of 230 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients, of whom 13 underwent ventricular fibrillation (5.7%), 3 underwent ventricular tachycardia (1.3%). Initial shockable rhythm was found in 47 patients (32.2%) out of 146 in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) patients, of whom 40 underwent ventricular fibrillation (27.4%), and 7 underwent ventricular tachycardia (4.8%). CPR by a mechanical device (Thumper) was performed in 219 patients (58.2%). In 376 patients, 186 patients had return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC, 49.5%), a successful CPR (ROSC ≥ 24 hours) was found in 110 patients (29.3%), 99 patients was hospitalized alive (26.3%) and 40 patients were discharged alive (10.6%). In 146 cases of IHCA, 89 patients had ROSC (61.0%), a successful CPR was found in 63 patients (43.2%), 56 patients were hospitalized alive (38.4%), and 29 patients were discharged alive (19.9%). In 230 patients of OHCA, 89 patients had ROSC (38.7%), 65 patients received pre-hospital CPR (28.3%), a successful CPR was found in 47 patients (20.4%), 43 patients were hospitalized alive (18.7%), and 11 patients were discharged alive (4.8%). There were 37 patients had a successful CPR (69.8%), and 25 patients were discharged alive (47.2%) in 53 patients with ventricular fibrillation. ② There were 77 patients with valid video information for analysis of CPR performance, with 48 patients of OHCA, and 29 patients of IHCA. Delay median time from the patients presence in the resuscitation room to be placed in rescue bed was 22 (0, 33) seconds. Hands-off median times during 10 minutes of CPR was 41 (18, 90) seconds. Thumper installment median times was 43 (31, 69) seconds. Median time for endotracheal intubation was 59 (35, 109) seconds. Median time of venous catheter placement was 112 (70, 165) seconds. It was shown by multivariate regression analysis that there was a significant correlation between estimated time interval from CA to CPR performed, hands-off time and success rate of CPR (t1 = -3.452, t2 = -2.729), rate of discharge alive (t1 = -2.328, t2 = -2.736, all P < 0.05). In 48 OHCA patients, success rate of CPR was significantly correlated with estimated time interval from collapse to CPR performed (t = -2.409, P = 0.021). In 29 IHCA patients, success rate of CPR and rate of discharge alive was significantly correlated with hands-off times (t1 = -3.412, t2 = -2.536, both P < 0.05). Conclusions Survival to hospital discharge following CA is significantly correlated with the time interval from collapse to CPR performed and hands-off times in CPR. Installment and usage of Thumper should be postponed in order to reduce hands-off times during CPR in IHCA.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasound (US) volume navigation technology in guiding the lum?bar transforaminal puncture with full?endoscopic technique through posterolateral approach. Methods From June 2011 to June 2013, 60 patients (37 males and 23 females;mean age:32.9 years) with single?level lumbar disc herniation who had undergone lumbar transforaminal puncture with full?endoscopic technique through posterolateral approach were enrolled in this retrospective study, and they were randomly divided into 2 groups according to whether the assistance of ultrasound volume navigation technolo?gy was used. They received the minimally invasive surgery on L4, 5 (47 cases) and L5S1 (13 cases). In the US?guidance group (29 cas?es), ultrasound volume navigation was used to guide puncture process, and in the C?arm guided group (31 cases), C?arm was ap?plied to guide the puncture process The total puncture time and C?arm fluoroscopy times were recorded. Parameters including Os?westry disability index (ODI) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were selected to evaluate the clinical efficacy. Results Patients had no obvious discomfort during the puncture procedure and no postoperative complications. In US?guidance group, the preopera?tive time was 13.7 ± 2.1 min (range, 11-16 min), and the whole process took 20.6 ± 3.1 min (range, 16-28 min), while the average time of C?arm exposure were 4.9 ± 0.8 times (range, 4-7 times). In C?arm guided group, the average time for puncture procedure was 27.9±1.7 min (range, 25-32 min), and the average times of C?arm exposure were 14.3±1.2 times (range, 13-17 times). There were significant differences between two groups. Compared with C?arm guided group, US?guidance group had the same accuracy rate of puncture (the puncture needles all reached the target area), but the fluoroscopy times and puncture timewere decreased sig?nificantly. There’s no significant difference among the pre and postoperative ODI and VAS indexes. Patients were followed?up at 3 months and 1 year postoperation. The mean follow?up period was 16.4 months (range, 12-26 months). The ODI score of the US?guidance group were 72.9%±5.9%, 17.1%±3.6%and 15.9%±3.3%before operation, 3 months postoperation and 1 year postopera?tion respectively. The ODI score of the C?arm guided group were 73.2%±4.9%, 17.3%±3.3%and 16.1%±2.9%respectively. The VAS were 7.4±0.9, 2.2±0.7 and 1.9±0.8 in US?guidance group, and were 7.2±0.9, 2.1±0.7, 1.8±0.8 in C?arm guided group. Con?clusion The ultrasound volume navigation can guide the lumbar transforaminal puncture with full?endoscopic technique through posterolateral approach accurately, reducing the puncture time and the amount of X?ray radiation significantly. Its puncture accura?cy and efficacy have no significant differences, which could be broadly used in clinical application.

Objective:To observe the effect of xylitol on the cyclooxygenase(COX)-2 expression of renal tubule in diabetic rats.Methods:The Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group(group NC),diabetes control group(group DC),5% xylitol-treated group(group 5%),10% xylitol-treated group(group 10%)and 20% xylitol-treated group(group 20%).At the end of 8 weeks,the expression of COX-2 in kidney tissue,the level of serum uric acid,allantoin and creatinine were tested in rat groups.Results:The levels of serum uric acid and allantoin were higher in group 5% and group 10% compared with that of group DC.The differences in levels of serum uric acid and allantoin were statistical significance between group 10% and group DC(P ＜ 0.05),whereas,the lower levels of serum uric acid and allantoin were found in group 20% compared with those of group DC(P ＞ 0.05).The levels of urine uric acid and allantoin were lower in group 5% and group 10% than those of group DC(urine uric acid,P＞ 0.05 and allantoin,P＜ 0.05),whereas,group 20% had higher levels of urine uric acid and allantoin than those of group DC(P＜ 0.05).The fractional excretion of uric acid(FEUA)was lower in group 5% and group 10% compared with that of group DC(P ＜ 0.05).The FEUA was higher in group 20% than that of group DC(P ＜ 0.05).The expression of COX-2 was significantly increased in group 5% and group 10% compared with that of group DC(P ＜ 0.05),but the expression of COX-2 decreased in group 20%(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:The lower and mediate doses of dietary xylitol could aggravate the tubular injury through increasing the level of serum uric acid and the expression of COX-2 in renal tubule.The higher doses of xylitol could increase the excretion of uric acid and down-regulate the expression of COX-2 in renal tubule.

Objective To study if 5-Aza-2’-deoxycytidine along or together with 4-phenylbutyric acid could affect miR-196b expression levels in chronic myeloid leukemia cells .Methods K562 cells were treated with DNA methylation inhibitor 5-Aza-2’-deoxycytidine, histone deacetylase inhibitors 4-phenylbutyric acid separately and the combined treatment with both of them, then expression levels of miR-196b were detected using Real-time PCR.Results The half inhibition concentration of 4-phenylbutyric acid was 1.58mmol/L.Comparing with the expression level of miR-196b in normal human bone marrow cells, the expression levels of miR-196b were significantly lower in Aza group , PBA group and negative control cells and nearly consistent among three groups , and as high as normal cells in combined treatment group . Conclusion The expression level of miR-196b in K562 cells could not return to normal treated with 5-Aza-2 ’-deoxycytidine or 4-phenylbutyric acid separately , while could restore normal when treated with both agents , indicating that miR-196b expression level in K562 cells is related with both DNA methylation and histone acetylation .
