The study was done to evaluate disturbances in blood gases and acid-base balance in 140 patients with chronic renal failure at the end stage (108 patients with hemodialysis, 32 patients without hemodialysis). The primarily results showed that: 33.3% arterial hypoxemia, 35.1% disturbances in PaCO2, 31.48% SaO2 decreased, 93.5% disturbances in AaDO2, 6.48% chronic respiratory failure with 71.49% type I and 28.51% type II. 77.8% pH decreased, 96.3% BE decreased, 94.45% HCO3 decreased, 92.56% TCO2 decreased. Disturbances in PaO2, PaCO2, AaDO2 of chronic renal failure with hemodialysis were lower than chronic renal failure without hemodialysis.

Study of the nutrition of workers on 5 sea objects on March 2003 showed that , each worker received 5000 Kcal per day from diet. The ration provided enough calories but it is not balanced according to the standard: over 20% of energy from protein (66.4% of them from animal products), 3% of energy from lipid (66.4% from animal products). This ration have no good influences on worker’s health, the excess of animal protein and lipid will lead to the risks of chronic diseases such as hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and gout.

Background: to assess the disturbances of blood gases in the patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), ventilation function was explored and blood gases were measured in 68 patients (mean age: 65.923.8) with COPD consisting of 40 males (58.8%) and 28 females (41.2%). Results: a large number of the patients hospitalized at late stages (32.35% at stage 1.25% at stage II and 42.5% at stage III). The main disturbance of blood gases in patients with COPD at stage I was a trivial PaO2 reduction with/ or without PaCO2 increase, on the contrary, the main disturbances of blood gases in those at stages II and III were severe exacerbation with a mixed feature (PaO2 reduction and PaCO2 increase). In the patients with COPD at stage I, PaO2 and PaCO2 did not significantly change (p>0.05); but there were significant disturbances in PaO2 and PaCO2 values in those at stages II and III (p<0.05). Conclusion: The result suggest that COPD should be identified, treated and managed at early stage because the chances of a fatal outcome are greater at late stage and, blood gases should be determined only at stage II and III COPD.

This study was performed on 38 patients with chronic renal failure with intermittent dialysis. The results showed that changes of the blood gas: intermittent dialysis lessen PaO2¬ from 95.27 mmHg before dialysis to 89.39 mmHg after dialysis (p<0.01), PaCO2 increased from 31.34 to 34.24 mmHg (P<0.01), and SaO2 increased from 93.78 to 95.64% (p<0.001). However, those changes were in the allowable limit. Balance of acid-base: Disordered balance of acid-base in chronic renal failure patients at the end-stage has been metabolic acidosis. Intermittent dialysis method improved the situation of the disorder; blood pH and HCO3- were recovered (p<0.001).

A study of intervention solutions for the exhaust from 4 thermo-electrical kilns, from synthetic process of in NH3 and dust due to NPK fertilizer production was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of technological improvement solutions in reducing environment pollution. Results: concentration of dust and toxic fumes was reduced, concentration of the exhaust components eliminated to environment through the chimneys of gases-made kilns reduced significantly after changing technology. NH3, CH4, H2 from producing NH3 decreased clearly, dust from producing NPK reduced 1.63-1.92 times

We have limited evidence as to the clinical indications for Kampo medicines, especially as they relate to gastrointestinal function. Thus, we investigated the efficacy of the Kampo medicine hangekobokuto (HKT) on patients with functional dyspepsia (FD), with special reference to its clinical indications for gastrointestinal function, including gastric emptying and bowel gas volume.Gastric emptying rate (GER) in FD patients was significantly facilitated by HKT. HKT also improved the gastrointestinal symptoms of the patients. Among these, patients who had inchuusharen, or a symptom of globus sensation, and a representative indication for HKT, showed significant improvement of both their GER and gastrointestinal symptoms compared with patients who did not have inchuusharen. As for bowel gas, the bowel gas volume calculated from a plain abdominal radiogram (gas volume score, GVS) in FD patients decreased significantly, after administration of HKT. Patients who had fukuman, or a feeling that one's stomach is full or bloated, and another representative indication for HKT, showed significant decrease of their GVS to normal levels, compared with patients who did not present with fukuman.These results suggest that the presence of clinical indications, such as inchuusharen or fukuman, are strongly related to HKT efficacy in patients with FD, and that these are useful, scientifically validated markers for the efficient use of HKT.
