BACKGROUND: Changes of physiological structure, changes of phenotype and first basic excision are all the changes of gene expression. The technique of DNA microarray is a new method to filtrate target genes fleetly and largely by using the theory of base-partnershin, which can holistically and magnificently study the expression and function of organics genes. OBJECTIVE: To study early differential expression genes of rats with cerebral hemorrhage with DNA microarray and establish academic foundation for exploring mechanism of cerebral hemorrhage.DESIGN: Randomized controlled research.SETTING: Department of Neurology, Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College. MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted at the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from October 2002 to December 2003. Twenty Wistar rats, of either gender, with body mass of 220-260 g, without special pathogen, provided by Experimental Animal Center of Chongqing University of Medical Sciences, were selected and randomly divided into control group and cerebral hemorrhage group, with 10 in each group. METHODS: Animal models with cute cerebral hemorrhage of rats were established with type Ⅶ collagenase tridimensional localization method,and 4 hours later tissues around hematom and normal cerebral tissue at the same part were detected with gene chip. Fluorescent signal was scanned with scanning apparatus and analyzed with computer. Result of genic expressive pattern was researched with reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Result of gene chip in cerebral tissue of rats and result of RT-PCR.RESULTS: Four hours after acute cerebral hemorrhage, 129 differential expression genes were screened out, in which there were 114 up-regnlation genes and 15 down-regulation genes. Those genes were mostly related to the following aspects: stress, immunological response, apoptosis, energy metabolism and signal transmitting. Genes related with inflammatory impairment were mostly obvious. The result of RT-PCR suggested that the level of genic expression was as the same as the result of Cdna chip, which indicated that genic expressive pattern based on gene chip had great reliability.CONCLUSION: Early cerebral hemorrhage has many differential expression genes, which can play an important role in hemorrhagic brain damage.

Objective To investigate the effect of purified haemadipsa yanyuanensis injection on promoting intracerebral hematoma in rats and its possible mechanism.Methods We set up the experimental intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) model in rats by stereotaxically injecting quantitative collagenase into their left caudate nucleuses.The effects of haemadipsa yanyuannesis injection on hematoma volume,neurological function recovery,brain water content(BWC),as well as histopathological changes were observed. BWC was calculated by weighing method,local capillaries were observed by micrangium perfusion.Results The intracerebral hematoma of the rats was reduced significantly( P

Objective To investigate the effect of continuing nursing on elderly patients with high risk of pressure sores. Methods High-risk elderly patients with pressure sores healed in our hospital in January 2014 to December 2014 were divided into control group and observation group with 130 cases in each group by random number table. The control group received routine follow-up service, while the observation group were intervened by continuing nursing care. To observe the differences before and after the interventions in both groups on the patient's quality of life and the incidence of pressure sores. Results There was statistically significance on mental function scores (t=12.393, P=0.000), social function score (t=8.459, P=0.000) and overall quality of life score (t=12.750, P=0.000) between the two groups after the interventions. Meanwhile, there was no statistically significance on material life score (t =-1.913, P=0.057) and physical function score (t=-0.328, P=0.744). The difference of the re-occurrence of pressure sores in the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=35.96, P=0.000), either. Conclusions Continuing nursing intervention can obviously reduce the risk the re-occurrence of pressure sores on high-risk elderly patients, in particular to improve the quality of life aspects of mental function and social function in patients, meanwhile with no obvious improvement in that of material life and body functions.

Objective To compare the development of gastric insufflation related to different peak inspiratory pressures (PIPs) during facemask ventilation in the pediatric patients.Methods Ninety male pediatric patients,aged 2-4 yr,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ,scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =18 each) using a random number table:PIP 8 cmH2O group (group P8),PIP 10 cmH2O group (group P10),PIP 12 cm H2O group (groupP12),PIP 14cmH2O group (group P14) and PIP 16 cmH2O group (group P16).Anesthesia was induced with fentanil,propofol and rocuronium in sequence.After loss of eyelash reflex,positive pressure facemask ventilation was performed for a 120 s period in pressure-controlled mode.Gastric insufflation was detected by real-time ultrasonography of the antrum,and cross-sectional antral area was measured using ultrasonography before facemask ventilation and at 120 s of facemask ventilation.The pulse oximetry (SpO2),tidal volume (VT),end-tidal pressure of carbon dioxide (PETCO2) and end-tidal oxygen concentration (ETO2) were recorded at 30,60,90,and 120 s of facemask ventilation.The development of gastric insufflation and hypoventilation was recorded.Results Compared with group P8,the incidence of gastric insufflation was significantly increased in group P16 (P＜0.01),and no significant change was found in the incidence of gastric insufflation in the other groups (P＞0.05),the incidence of hypoventilation was significantly decreased,VT and ETO2 were increased,and PET CO2 was decreased in P12,P14 and P16 groups,and PETCO2 was significantly decreased at 120 s of facemask ventilation (P＜ 0.05 or 0.01),and no significant change was found in the other parameters in group P10 (P＞0.05).Compared with P12 and P14 groups,VT was significantly increased,PEHTCO2 was decreased at 120 s of facemask ventilation (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the incidence of hypoventilation and ETO2 in group P16 (P＞0.05).There was no significant difference between group P12 and group P14 in the incidence of hypoventilation,VT,PETCO2 and ETO2 (P＞0.05).The pediatric patients showed a certain CO2 accumulation [PETCO2 (40.6±4.0) mmHg] at 120 s of facemask ventilation in group P8,and the pediatric patients showed excessive ventilation [PETCO2 (23.6± 1.4) mmHg],and cross-sectional antral area was not measured using ultrasonography in three cases because of excessive gastric insufflation in group P16.Conclusion PIP at 12-14 mmHg in pressure-controlled ventilation mode can not only ensure adequate preoxygenation and but also avoid excessive gastric insufflation during facemask ventilation in the pediatric patients.

Objective Observation and discussion about the treatment effect with home-made vacuum drainage and Algoplaque on severe pressure ulcers. Methods The patients with severe pressure ulcers selected from Yuebei Peole′s Hospital of Shaoguan city from January to December 2016 were randomly divided into three groups:experimental group, control group A and group B (30 cases in each). The patients were treated with home-made vacuum drainage and Algoplaque in the experimental group, meanwhile a simple use of Algoplaque treatment in control group A and VSD technology in control group B only. Observed and compared the effect in the three groups on the time of dressing change, wound healing time and the total cost. Results The wound healing time of experimental group.contral group A and group B were (24.10 ± 2.12), (33.26 ± 1.71), (27.87 ± 1.95) days, the times of dressing change were 5.52 ± 0.96, 35.84 ± 1.81, 7.23 ± 1.09, dressing costs were (629.95 ± 28.10) yuan, (1354.29 ± 301.63) yuan, (10825.38±1678.21) yuan, and the differences were statistically significant (F=175.961, 5017.527, 1029.377, all P<0.01), and the wound healing time, dressing times, dressing costs were lower than the control group A and B in the observation group. Conclusion The treatment of home-made vacuum drainage and Algoplaque on patients with severe pressure ulcers can obviously reduce the time of dressing change and wound recovery, and the cost also. It is worthy to promote in clinic.

Objective:To observe the effect of observing good swallowing on the swallowing action of stroke survivors with dysphagia.Methods:Eighteen stroke survivors with dysphagia were randomly divided into a treatment group ( n=9) and a control group ( n=9). In addition to routine swallowing rehabilitation therapy, the treatment group was asked to simulate swallowing after watching a video of normal people′s swallowing action. They did so 5 times a week for 10 minutes, while the control group just watched landscape videos at the same time. The treatment lasted 8 weeks. Before and after the treatment, both groups were assessed using the eating assessment tool (EAT-10), the functional oral intake scale (FOIS) and the penetration and aspiration scale (PAS). Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was also used to observe their swallowing action. Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups in any of the measurements before the treatment. After the 8 weeks of treatment the average EAT-10, FOIS and PAS scores of the treatment group were all significantly better than before the treatment and better than the control group′s averages at the time. fMRI showed significantly more areas activated in the precuneus, parietal lobe, posterior central gyrus, BA7, BA5, frontal lobe and paracentral lobule in the treatment group compared with before the intervention and also more than in the control group.Conclusions:Observing proper swallowing action can improve dysphagia and activation of the swallowing-related brain areas of stroke survivors.

Objective:To investigate high resolution CT (HRCT) manifestations and clinical features of patients infected with the novel coronavirus B.1.617.2 variant.Methods:A total of 125 patients with the novel coronavirus B.1.617.2 variant in Guangzhou Eighth People′s Hospital from May 21 to June 9, 2021 was enrolled. There were 52 males and 73 females, aged from 1 to 92 years old with a median age of 47 year. The clinical features and HRCT characteristics were analyzed retrospectively.Results:Of the 125 patients, the main clinical manifestations were fever in 54 patients, cough in 50 patients, pharyngeal discomfort in 39 patients, and diarrhea in 5 patients. HRCT showed pneumonia in 96 cases, which predominantly had ground-glass opacities in 92 cases, ground-glass opacities combined with local consolidation in 22 cases, consolidation in 11 cases, intralobular interstitial thickening in 51 cases, centrilobular structural thickening in 23 cases, and cord-like lesions in 33 cases. One patient had pleural effusion, and no enlarged lymph nodes were observed in all patients. The lesions were distributed in the subpleural and/or peripheral lung in 96 cases and along the bronchovascular bundle (middle and inner zone) in 24 cases. The time interval from onset to positive HRCT was 3 (1, 4) days in 96 patients with pneumonia on HRCT. HRCT showed absorption after the imaging findings reaching the peak in 20 patients, and the time interval between the first positive HRCT findings and the peak imaging was 6 (3, 7) days in these 20 patients.Conclusions:The novel coronavirus B.1.617.2 variant has a strong infectivity, short viral latency. Lung injury is decreaseel. People of all ages are susceptible and the diseasemay have rapid pnegression. HRCT mainly shows ground glass opacities, which are more common in subpleural and/or in the lung periphery, with interlobular thickening.

Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) refers to the sudden and unexplained sensorineural hearing loss within 72 h and a decrease in hearing of ≥30 dB affecting at least 3 consecutive frequencies. It is one of the common emergencies in neurology and otolaryngology. Early etiological evaluation and systematic and targeted treatment are very important for delaying the progression of SSNHL and restoring hearing. Recent studies have shown that SSNHL overlaps with vascular risk factors of ischemic stroke, and may predict the risk of ischemic stroke. SSNHL may be one of the clinical manifestation and even the prodromal symptoms of ischemic stroke, especially the infarction of the blood supply area of the anterior inferior cerebellar artery or its branch internal auditory artery. Although these factors can not fully reveal the relationship between SSNHL and ischemic stroke, they are enough to warn clinicians that they should consider the possibility of ischemic stroke when receiving patients with SSNHL. Screening of vascular risk factors for patients with SSNHL as early as possible is helpful to avoid the risk of recurrence of ischemic stroke.
