Objective:To observe the sedative effect of epidural anesthesia assisted with target controlled infusion(TCI) propofol.Methods:45 ASA Ⅰ～Ⅱ patients,who would accept hysterectomy,were randomly allocated to group Ⅰ (without propofol),group Ⅱ(Target blood propofol concentration was set at 1.0?g/ml when epidural anesthesia level was confirmed) and group Ⅲ(Target blood propofol concentration was set at 1.5?g/ml).Heart rate and blood pressure were determined at the different moment from pre-operation to the end of the surgery.And the sedation degree was evaluated by the Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (OAA/S) Scale.At the same time,efficacy of antitraction response and perioperative awareness were investigated.Results:In three groups,blood pressure significantly decreased when epidural anesthesia level was confirmed.Goup Ⅱ and Goup Ⅲ showed significantly lower than group Ⅰ in 5 min after propofol infusion.HR gradually decreased with operative courses,and no difference was significantly found in the three groups.53.3% of patients fell asleep;53.3% had effective antitraction response and 33.3% were aware in group Ⅱ.And the patients in goup Ⅲ all fell asleep;86.7% could prevent traction response during operation but no perioperative awareness.Conclusion:Target controlled infusion of propofol as an adjuvant for epidural anesthesia is applicable and can prevent viscus traction response during surgical exploration.And the sedative effects of blood propofol concentration of 1.5?g/ml are better than 1.0?g/ml through OAA/S Scale.

Objective To investigate the incidence and the risk factors of the vascular disease in lower limbs of patients with type 2 diabetes(T2DM).Methods To retrospectively analyze 318 cases with T2DM patients.All the patients were checked on both lower limbs by color ultrasonic Doppler.The differences of ordinary and biochemical indicators between PVD group and non-PVD group were compared.Results There were 67.2％ (205/318) patients who had vascular disease in lower limbs with type 2 diabetes.Age,course of disease,HbAlC,TC,TG,SBP,DBP and BMI in PVD group were significantly higher than those in non-PVD group( P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion There was higher incidence of the vascular disease in lower limbs of patients with type 2 diabetes.And the independent risk factors were hypertension,hyperglycemia,hyperlipemia.It could help to prevent the development of lower limb blood vessel pathological changes in DM patients by controlling the levels of blood pressure,lipid and blood sugar strictly.

60 yr ( n = 225) and group Ⅱ 0.05 ) . Conclusions The results suggest that the higher incidence of postoperative neurological complication in elderly patients is associated with higher rate of cerebral desaturation during operation and preoperative cerebrovascular diseases, but is not related to the number of microemboli passing through MCA during CABG.

There are multiple types of inhibitory immune cells in tumor. Among these cells, Treg (regulatory T cell) plays an extremely important role in tumor development and progression. Treg exihibits potent inhibitory effects on effector cells by a variety of mechanisms, which might be the the key factor for tumor immune escape. These mechanisms include inhibiting the effector cell function by inhibitory cytokines, killing effector cells by granzyme and profrin, interfering effector cell metabolism, and affecting Treg differentiation and proliferation by regulating the function of dendrtic cells, etc. The research on Treg has provided new strategies for tumor immunotherapy. Tumor immunotherapies targeting Treg and related immunosuppressive factors, such as deleting Treg nonsepcificlly or sepcificlly controling the numbers and functions of Treg, might have a bright future in clinical application.keyword regulatory T cell(Treg); neoplasms; immune escape; immunotherapy

The change of T cell subsets of peripheralblood were tested in 12 patients with prematureovarian failure (POF), among them 10 patients superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in erythrocytewas also tested. The results showed that the num-ber of T_3, T_4 cells T_4/T_8 ratio and SOD activitywas significantly lower in patients with POF thanin normal controls, which indicated that the func-tion of proliferation and differentiation of T lym-phocyte was inhibited, the immunoregulation wasinbalanced and the ability of resistance to lipid per-oxidation was lower in patients with POF. There-fore, the results suggests that T cell subsets andSOD activity testing in patients with POF have val-ue in the investigation of the cause of the deseaseas well as in the diagnose and treatment.

BACKGROUND:Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) can enhance fibroblast proliferation and col agen deposition, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can improve blood perfusion and metabolic level of pathological tissues. Additional y, both of them can boost the alkaline phosphatase activity under given conditions. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of bFGF combined with VEGF on the periodontal ligament fibroblast proliferation and alkaline phosphatase activity in rats. METHODS:Rat periodontal ligament fibroblasts were cultured in vitro, its embryonic origin was identified and passage 4 cel s were used for the fol owing experiments. Effects of bFGF and VEGF with different concentrations on the rat periodontal ligament fibroblast proliferation were detected to determine the minimum and maximum effective concentrations. Cel s were divided into five groups:group A (control group) with DMEM containing 2%fetal bovine serum;group B as maximum effective concentration of VEGF group;group C as maximum effective concentration of bFGF;group D as minimum effective concentration of bFGF combined with minimum effective concentration of VEGF group;group E as maximum effective concentration of bFGF combined with maximum effective concentration of VEGF group. At 3, 7 and 14 days, the alkaline phosphatase activity in each group was detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Rat periodontal ligament fibroblasts derived from the mesoderm grew wel . Rat periodontal ligament fibroblast proliferation was increased with the VEGF and bFGF concentration increasing (P<0.01). The maximum and minimum effective concentrations of VEGF were 100 and 10μg/L, and the maximum and minimum effective concentrations of bFGF were 10 and 0.1μg/L. The absorbance values in the groups D and E were higher than those in the group A. The absorbance values of the group D were significantly lower than those of the group E at 3 and 7 days (P<0.05), but did not significantly differ at 14 days (P>0.05). To conclude, the combination use of the maximum effective concentration of VEGF and bFGF can play a significant synergistic effect on the alkaline phosphatase activity at a given time, but the minimum and maximum effective concentrations show no significant differences if not in the given time, which may be related to the time-effectiveness of these two factors and the receptors of periodontal ligament cel s.

Objective To observe the effect of stress caused by neuropathic pain on serum cortisol concentration and expres-sion of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehyarogenase 1(11βHSD1)and investigate the action mechanism of curcumin for alleviating neuropathic pain. Methods The 72 male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 18 rats in each group:sham operation group(Sham), chronic constrictive injury group(CCI),solvent contrast group(SC)and curcumin treated group(Cur100). Curcumin(100 mg/kg/d) was given after the operation in Cur100 group. Paw thermal withdrawal(PTWL)and paw mechanical withdrawal threshold(PMWT)of rats were measured on 2 pre-operative and 1,3,5,7,10,and 14 post-operative days. The animals were deeply anesthetized,the blood was taken from the heart,and the L4-L5 dorsal root ganglion(DRG)of the operated side was removed. The change of cortisol was measured by ELISA and the change of 11βHSD1 expression in spinal cord and DRG was determined by immunochemistry and Western blot. Results Compared with sham group,PTWL and PMWT decreased significantly after operation in CCI group(P<0.01),serum cortisol concentration was significantly increased(P<0.01)and the expression of 11βHSD1 was significantly increased in CCI group(P<0.01). Compared with CCI group,the PMWT and PTWL was increased in CCI group(P<0.05),the serum cortisol concentration was decreased(P<0.05)and the expression of 11βHSD1 was inhibited in Cur100 group(P<0.05). Conclusion Stress caused by neuropathic pain triggered the release of cortisol to the blood and increased the expression of 11βHSD1 at the same time. Cur-cumin could alleviate thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical hyperalgesia induced by CCI and could also inhibit the serum cortisol con-centration and the expression of 11βHSD1 in spinal cord and DRG,which was likely to be related to pathogenesy and maintenance of neuropathic pain.
