BACKGROUND: In our previous studies, zinc-calcium-phosphate (Zn-Ca-P) coating has been successful y prepared on the surface of AZ31 magnesium al oy, which improves the corrosion resistance of the al oy. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the hemocompatibility of Zn-Ca-P coated AZ31 magnesium al oy in vitro. METHODS: Zn-Ca-P coating was prepared on the surface of AZ31 magnesium al oy using chemical transformation. Afterwards, the characteristics of the Zn-Ca-P coating were investigated using scanning electron microscope, and X-ray diffraction analyzed its components. Besides, hemocompatibility in vitro was evaluated by platelet adhesion assay, dynamic clotting time test and hemolysis test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Under scanning electron microscope, a flower-like coating was formed ont surface of the AZ31 magnesium al oy, with the main chemical component of insoluble phosphates Zn3(PO4)2?4H2O. And some round distortionless blood platelets adhered to the surface of AZ31 magnesium al oy, with no pseudopodia. In dynamic clotting time test, the long curve of Zn-Ca-P coating tended to descend indicating better anticoagulant activity. And the hemolysis rate was below 5%. In conclusion, Zn-Ca-P coating has good hemocompatibility in vitro.

Objective To assess the effect of different ages on sufentanil pharmacokinetics in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement.Methods Sixteen NYHA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients undergoing selective cardiac valve replacement were randomly divided into two groups:elderly group (aged 65-69 years,group Ⅰ,n =8) and young adult group (aged 36-45 years,group Ⅱ,n =8).Intravenous and intra-arterial cannulae were placed.Sufentanil 5 μg/kg injected intravenously during anesthesia induction.Blood samples from the radial artery were obtained at 1,3,5,10,20,30,60,120,180,240 and 360 min after sufentanil injection (3 ml each).Then 1 ml plasma was immediately separated from the 3 ml blood sample and stored at - 80 ℃ until being assayed.Plasma sufentanil concentration was determined with liquid chromatography mass spectrometry and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with 3P97 pharmacologicl program.Results Plasma sufentanil concentration versus the time decay curve in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement before cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was fitted to a twocompartment model and could be expressed by bi-exponential equations:Cp (t) =27.4 e-0.41t + 3.2 e-0.029t in group Ⅰ and Cp (t) =14.4 e-0.51t +3.4 e-0.032t in group Ⅱ,respectively.There were significant differences in t 1/2 α,t1/2 β and CL between the two groups ( P ＜ 0.05 or 0.0l ).During CPB,plasma sufentanil concentration versus the time decay curve in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement was fitted to a three-compartment model and could be expressed by tri-exponential equations:Cp(t) =22 e-0.51t + 3.5 e-0.045t + 0.21 e-0.0029 t in group Ⅰand Cp(t) =15 e-0.52t + 3.9 e-0.048t + 0.32 e-0.004t in group Ⅱ,respectively.There were no significant differences in pharmacokinetic parameters between the two groups ( P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion There are significant differences in sufentanil phannacokinetic characteristics before CPB but different ages have no obvious influence on sufentanil pharmaco-kinetics during CPB.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of thyroid disorders and positive thyroid autoantibodies,and evaluate the necessity for universal thyroid screening during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy.Methods The pregnant women during the second and third trimesters who visited Shanghai Jiaotong University Affiliated First People's Hospital between June 2006 and February 2008 were chosen for thyroid screening by determining serum free triiodothyronine,free thyroxine,thyrotropin,thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb),and thyrotropin receptor antibody.A personal and family history of thyroid disease and other autoimmune diseases was investigated by questionnaire.The pregnant women were divided into high risk or low risk groups for thyroid disease based on their personal or family histories.Results A total of 2 101 pregnant women were screened,712 ( 33.89％ ) of them were identified to suffer from thyroid disorders or with positive thyroid autoantibody.The prevalence of thyroid dysfunction was increased in high risk group.While in low risk group( n =1 983 ),the prevalence of clinical hypothyroidism was 2.27％ ( n =45 ),subclinical hypothyroidism 11.60％ ( n =230 ),clinical hyperthyroidism 0.20％ ( n =4 ),subclinical hyperthyroidism 1.06％ ( n =21 ),hypothyroxinemia 6.45％ ( n =128 ),and euthyroid with positive TPOAb 10.74％ ( n =213 ) in our study.Pregnant women with positive TPOAb were susceptible to thyroid dysfunction.It was shown that 79.74％ of pregnant women with thyroid disorders were diagnosed by universal thyroid screening.Conclusions 33.89％ of pregnant women in the second and third trimesters were identified to suffer from thyroid disorders or positive thyroid autoantibody by universal thyroid screening.Increased prevalence of thyroid dysfunction was found in pregnant women with positive TPOAb.79.74％ of pregnant women with thyroid disorders might be missed if screening was made only in the high risk cases.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of positive serum thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) on pregnancy outcomes in biochemically euthyroid women during gestation.MethodsFrom July 2006 to December 2010,in the prenatal care unit all pregnant women,who had no medical and family history of thyroid diseases,underwent thyroid function screening.Serum TPOAb was tested among those pregnant women with euthyroidism.Pregnancy outcomes,including obstetric complications,neonate birth weight,and Apgar score,were compared between 185 TPOAb positive women and 1417 TPOAb negative women.ResultsCompared with TPOAb negative women,it was more frequent for TPOAb positive women to suffer from various obstetric complications.The prevalences of umbilical cord entanglement ( 18.9％ vs 12.9％,RR =1.47,95％ CI 1.06-2.03,P＜0.05 ),threatened premature delivery or abortion (3.8％ vs 1.0％,RR =3.83,95％ CI 1.57-9.37,P＜0.05 ),intrauterine growth retardation (5.4％ vs 0.8％,RR =6.96,95％ CI 3.00-16.17,P＜0.01 ),and neonatal pneumonia ( 4.9％ vs 1.3％,RR =3.83,95％ CI 1.75-8.40,P＜0.01 ) in the group of TPOAb positive women were higher than those in the group of TPOAb negative women.Apgar score of those newborns whose mothers had positive TPOAb was 9.27 ±1.13 at one minute and 9.44 ± 1.09 at five minutes,being lower than that of the TPOAb negative group (9.49 ±0.69 and 9.68 ±0.52,both P＜0.01 ).The rate of newborns with Apgar score at 7 or less by 5 min in group with positive TPOAb was higher than that of group with negative TPOAb ( 1.6％ vs 0.1％,RR =11.49,95 ％ CI 1.93-68.31,P＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionsThese results indicate that pregnant women with normal thyroid function but positive TPOAb may be liable to increase risk of serious pregnancy outcomes,such as threatened premature delivery or abortion,intrauterine growth retardation,and a lower Apgar score in neonatal.
