OBJECTIVE:To compare anesthesia effects of 3 anesthesia methods,to investigate anesthesia improvement method for bronch fiber oscope. METHODS:315 patients undergoing bronch fiber oscope were randomly divided into group A(106 cas-es),group B(104 cases)and group C(105 cases). Group A was treated with traditional bronch fiber oscope lidocaine atomization local anesthesia,group B was treated with modified bronch fiber oscope pethidine combined with lidocaine atomization local anes-thesia and group C was treated with three-limb tube connected with laryngeal mask and target-controlled propofol and remifentanil general anesthesia. SaO2,SBP,DBP,heart rate,breathing rate,excellent anesthesia rate,compliance rate,the rate of bodymove-ment and choking,pain recalling rate were compared among 3 groups before and during examination,and ADR was observed. RE-SULTS:Compared with before examination,SaO2 of group A was decreased significantly during examination,with statistical sig-nificance(P<0.05);that of group B and C had no obvious change before and during examination. Blood pressure,heart rate and breathing rate of 3 groups had no obvious change before and during examination. The excellent anesthesia rate and compliance rate of group A were significantly lower than those of group B and C,but the rate of bodymovement cough and pain recalling rate were significantly higher than group B and C,with statistical significantly(P<0.05). The excellent anesthesia rate and compliance rate of group B were significantly lower than those of group C,but the rate of bodymovement cough and pain recalling rate were signifi-cantly higher than group C,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No ADR was found in 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Modified bronchoscope atomization local anesthesia and modified painless bronchoscope are better than traditional bronch fiber oscope atomi-zation local anesthesia in anesthesia effect,safety,degree of comfort and acceptability. Modified bronchoscope atomization local an-esthesia was best but most expensive,so these methods can be chosen according to patient’s condition.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of sinus tachycardia patients with atypical asthma.Methods The data of 19 patients with sinus tachycardia resulted from atypical asthma,including clinical data and the treatment results were retrospectively analyzed.Results There were 19 patients received lung function check,among them total 19 patients were atypical asthma whose tachycardia were cured,the heart beating rate was significantly lower after treated [(86.79±3.91) vs (108.89±4.23),t=6.921,P=0.000].Condusion The lung function check was requisite for patients with sinus tachycardia resulted from atypical asthma and the tachycardia can be cured by curing asthma drugs and calcium channel blocking agent.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in the treatment of old unstable osteoporotic vertebral fracture.Methods Twenty cases of old unstable osteoporotic single vertebral body fracture were divided into the stable group and unstable group according to the imaging results,10 cases in each group.PVP was performed in all 20 cases.The VAS scores of waist bending activity at preoperative 30 min,postoperative 6 h,3,30 d were observed.The changes of anterior edge height of spinal body in the injured vertebral segment of erect position and horizontal position were compared before and after operation.Results The VAS score of waist bending at preoperative 30 min had statistical difference between the two groups (P＜0.05).Compared with at preoperative 30 min,the VAS scores at postoperative observation points in the two groups were significantly decreased with statistical difference (P＜0.05).The VAS scores at postoperative 6 h,3,30 d had no statistical difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The changes of posterior edge height of spinal body in the stable groups had no statistical difference before and after operation (P＞0.05);the anterior edge height of spinal body after treatment in the unstable group were significantly changed compared with before operation,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Preoperative pain in the patients with unstable osteoporotic vertebral fracture is more obvious than that in the patients with stable osteoporotic vertebral fracture.But all have similar effect after PVP therapy;the postoperative height in unstable osteoporotic vertebral fracture can obtain a certain recovery after PVP.

Objective To assess the therapeutic effect of garlicin on Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) of immuosuppressed rats. Methods The Wistar rats were injected intramuscularly continually with dexamethasone for eight weeks to establish the rat model of PCP. The rats were treated with garlicin, meanwhile control groups without treatment and with SMZ-TMP treatment were established respectively in PCP model. The efficacy was evaluated based on the lung weight, lung /body weight ratio and mean cyst number per 100 fields in lung print smear. Results The mean lung weight of the rats in garlicin is 1.73?0.17, lung/body weight ratio is 0.84?0.12, they are obvious lower than 2.31?0.35 and 1.25?0.35 of control (P

BACKGROUND: These serial processes for forming male gametes are basically controlled by the programmed expression of a number of stage-specific genes. However, many aspects of the mechanisms of spermatogenesis have remained elusive because of a lack of suitable in vitro or in vivo models.OBJECTIVE: To screen genes involved in spermatogenesis, and to analyze its expression characteristics. METHODS: Testes cDNA samples from Balb/C mice of different postnatal days (4,9,18,35, 54 days and 6 months, respectively) were hybridized with mouse whole genome Affymetrix chip to screen the testis-ralated genes. The characteristics of the selected genes were analyzed by various bioinformatics tools. RT-PCR was used here to identify the expression of the selected genes in mice testis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The Affymetrix chip probe of mouse Tpap was graduated higher expression with developmental stages of mouse testis. The scaling hybridization signal intensities of the tested testis on days 4, 9,18, 35, 54, and 6 months of postnatal were 4.4 (Absent expression, A), 12.9 (A), 262.4 (Present expression, P), 1136.7 (P), 1617.5 (P) and 1128 (P),respectively. These results indicated that the expression of mouse Tpap wasn't detected on days 4 and 9, but was detected on days 18, 35, 54, and 6 months of mouse testis in our Affymetrix chip analysis. By combination with the RT-PCR analysis of mouse Tpap, we observed mouse Tpap began to express at the age of day 18 in mouse. Tpap is an age-dependent gene in mouse testis.The expression of Tpap corresponds to the appearance of spermatids of mice and indicates that Tpap may have an important role in male mammalian spermatogenesis.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of reoperation(after I stage anterior/posterior operation)for thoracolumbar fractures combined with kyphosis and spinal cord injury. Methods A retrospective study was done on the medical records of 12 patients who underwent two-stage decompression with kyphosis and neurologic deficit due to single-stage approach(anterior or posterior) operation of thoracolumbar fractures combined with spinal cord injury between January 2005 and April 2009.There were 9 males and 3 females,at mean age of 34.6 years(range,19-57 years).According to the Denis classification,there were five patients with burst fractures,five with compression fractures and two with fracture dislocation.All the patients had couns medullaris injury.Of all the patients,five underwent one stage anterior approach surgery and the others underwent posterior approach operation.All the patients had vailous degrees of neurological symptoms.The patients treated with one stage anterior surgery were treated with two stage posterior surgery and the patients treated with one stage posterior surgery were treated with the two stage anterior operation.The mean interval from one stage operation to two stage decompression was 13.4 months(range,12-18 months).The radiologic,neurologic and functional outcomes were assessed through observation of the Cobb angle,Frankel spinal cord injury grading and Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores(JOA). Results AIl the patients were followed up for mean 25 months (12-48months),which showed primary healing of the incisions in all the patients.The average anterior and posterior heisht of the vertebrae wers corrected from preoperative 42.6%and 70.5%to postoperative 92.5%and 95.7%and to 87.3%and 92.2%at the final follow-up respectively.Neurologic status was improved at least one Frankel grade in the patients who had preoperative incomplete paraplegia.The Cobb angle was corrected from preoperative 36.3°to postoperative 5.8°and to 5.9°at the final follow-up(P<0.05).No patient had any notable loss of correction between discharge and final follow-up.According to JOA coring,the results were excellent in nine patients,good in two and fair in one,with excellence rate of 92%. Conclusions Two stage decompression for epiconus and cauda equina syndrome resulted from one stage approach(anterior or posterior)operation of thoracolumbar fractures combined with spinal cord injury call attain satisfactory correction of the kyphosis and nerve decompression as well as various degrees of nerve function recovery.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects and safety of acitretin for severe inherited keratodermas in children and adolescents. Methods Acitretin was given to 23 children and adolescents with either lamellar ichthyosis, bulbous ichthyosiform erythroderma, pityriasis rubra pillars, progressive sym- metrical erythrokeratoderma, keratitis ichthyosis deafness syndrome, generalized porokeratosis, inflammatory liner verrucous epidermal nevus, ichthyosis hystrix and non-bullous ichthyosiform erythroderma. The thera- peutic dosage was 0.67-1.07 mg/(kg?d),and maintenance dosage 0.08-0.94 mg/(kg?d).The effects on the patients' growth and development of the drug were evaluated based on the changes of body weight and height in the children. The total follow-up period was 6-35 months in an interval of 1-3 months. Results The considerable overall improvement was achieved after 1-6 months' treatment, with an overall clinical cure rate of 82.6%. Only one case responded poorly to the therapy. The excellent responses were observed in patients with bulbous ichthyosiform erythroderma, lamellar ichthyosis, and pityriasis rubra pillars, etc, and the much poor responses in ichthyosis hystrix. The most frequent adverse reaction was mild to moderate dry lips (65.2%),the next were pruritus(39.1%),skin fragility(34.8%),and dry mouth(30.4%).The less frequent adverse reactions were alopecia(13%),anorexia(8.7%),headache (4.3%) and hypoacusis (4.3%).No effects on the growth and development were found in those children during the follow up period. Conclusions The considerable overall improvement is achieved with the acitretin therapy for children and adolescents with inherited keratodermas, with only mild to moderate adverse reactions and no effects on the growth and development in the children.

The global COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has infected over 109 million people, leading to over 2 million deaths up to date and still lacking of effective drugs for patient treatment. Here, we screened about 1.8 million small molecules against the main protease (M^pro) and papain like protease (PL^pro), two major proteases in severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 genome, and identified 1851M^pro inhibitors and 205 PL^pro inhibitors with low nmol/l activity of the best hits. Among these inhibitors, eight small molecules showed dual inhibition effects on both M^pro and PL^pro, exhibiting potential as better candidates for COVID-19 treatment. The best inhibitors of each protease were tested in antiviral assay, with over 40% of M^pro inhibitors and over 20% of PL^pro inhibitors showing high potency in viral inhibition with low cytotoxicity. The X-ray crystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 M^pro in complex with its potent inhibitor 4a was determined at 1.8 Å resolution. Together with docking assays, our results provide a comprehensive resource for future research on anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug development.
