Objective To know the indoor air pollution status in the newly decorated residential houses in Jiaozuo and to study the effect of decoration materials on the pollution. Methods To monitor formaldehyde, ammonia and benzene levels in the indoor air of 39 newly decorated rooms in Jiaozuo. Results The exceed standard rates of formaldehyde, ammonia and benzene in the indoor air were 73.6%, 84.7% and 25.8% respectively. Exceed standard rate of formaldehyde in the room which held the new furniture was the highest, 88.8%. Conclusion Decoration may cause indoor air pollution, the most part of the pollutants are formaldehyde and benzene. The level of the pollution depends on the different usages of the rooms.

Objective To evaluate the effects of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES)130/0.4 and 6% HES 200/0.5 on blood coagulation in patients undergoing major operation under general anesthesia.Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 18-64 yr undergoing major operation under general anesthesia during which the blood loss was expected to be＞20%of blood volume were allocated randomly into 3 groups(n=20 each):Ⅰ control group(C);Ⅱ6% HES200/0.5 group (H) and Ⅲ HES130/0.4 group (V).In group H and V the patients Arterial blood samples were taken before(T1),immediately(T2)and 1 h after the end of fluid infusion(T3)for determination of hematocrit(Hct),platelet count(PLT)and prothrombin time(PT),platelet maximum aggregation test induced by 5 μmol/L ADP,and Sonoclot coagulation and platelet function analysis(gbACT,CR,PF,TP).Activated partial thromboplastin time(Am),coagulation factor Ⅷ (FⅧ)activity and von Willebrand factor(vWF)were measured only in group H and V.Results (1) PT and APTT were significantly prolonged after fluid infusion at T2 and T3 as compared with the baseline values at T1 in group H and V.(2)FⅧ activity and platelet maximum aggregation induced by ADP were significantly decreased at the end of fluid infusion at T2 as compared with the baseline at T1 but increased again at T3 in group H and V.(3)There was no significant change in Sonoclot coagulation parameters after fluid infusion as compared with the baseline except clot formation rate (CR)in group H and V.Conclusion Acute hypervolemic hemodilution with 6% HES130/0.4 or 200/0.5 has minimal effect on blood coagulation and there is no significant difference in blood coagulation changes induced by 6%HES130/0.4 and 200/0.5.

Objective The purpose of this study was to analyze the alterations of T_1、T_2 lymphocyte subsets in the peripheral blood of patients with colorectal cancer. MethodsTwenty patients with primary colorectal cancer were enrolled into this study, T_1 and T_2 in the peripheral blood were evaluated by detecting the intracellular interferon-? and interleukin-4 production with 4-color flow cytometry. ResultsThe percentage of T_1 and T_2 in the peripheral blood of cancer patients was lower significantly than healthy controls [(36?11)% and 3.3(1.9)% vs. (46?12)% and 4.1(3.1)%](P

Induced pluripotent stem cell is a landmark in the stem cell study field, which has rapidly developed in the past 10 years.By obtaining induced pluripotent stem cells from somatic cell, and then differentiating into cardiomyocyte, various cardiomyocyte disease models could be established,which can be used for research of disease mechanisms, drug screening and gene therapy.This review introduces the successfully established cardiomyocyte disease models from human induced pluripotent stem cells, and points out the problems and prospects.

The expression patterns of gastrin(Gas),β-endorphin(End).somatostatin(Ss),glucagons(Glu),and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)cells in the duck bursa of Fabricius were studied by the immunohiswchemicai method associated with image analysis.The resuhs showed that the Gas-positive cells with high intensity wrte seen in the follicle-associated epitllelium (FAE),the End with medium intensity in the interfollicular epithelium,the End,Gas and 5-HT with medium or high intensity in the cortex of lymphoid follicles.and the Gas with high intensity in the medulla of lymphoid follicles.Both SS and Gh showed negative reaction.The pre-sent results demonstrated that the Gas,End and 5-HT cells are differentially expressed in the different parts of the duck bursa.The positive cells distributed in the cortex of lymphoid follicles might favour exerting their influence via an endocrine, autocrine or paracrine pathways on the development of B cells.

Objective Observed the mobilization effects、 the safety and feasibility of autologous circulating blood stem cell by G-CSF in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods 45 patients with AMI were randomly allocated to receive either inclusive type Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF), to mobilize the stem cell. The patients received the dose of G-CSF 300?g-600?g/day, by hypodermic injection, and the duration of applying G-CSF was 5 days. In the process of the mobilization of the circulating blood stem cell, prior to applying G-CSF and on the 3rd、4th、5th、6th、7th after applying G-CSF, the white blood cell (WBC) and CD34+ cell count in the circulating blood should be observed; and the following side effects also should be paid attention to, such as: bone pain, tetter, fever, gastrointestinal effects( nausea 、vomit、 coprostatis ),deteriorated of angina or heart failure and some rare effects(spontaneous spleen rupture, severe purulent infection, hypercoagulable state, autologous immune diseases). Results Prior to applying G-CSF and the 3rd、4th、5th、6th、7th after applying G-CSF, the counts of WBC were (8.42?2.59)?10 9/L、(31.28?8.34)?10 9/L、(35.24?9.38)?10 9/L、(37.03?13.07)?10 9/L、(35.34?14.68)?10 9/L、(20.35?9.22)?10 9/L;the counts of CD34+ cell were (14.89?11.46)?10 6、(67.78?50.88)?10 6、(124.79?136.13)?10 6、(208.92?206.97)?10 6、(206.10?184.57)?10 6、(66.63?56.56)?10 6;The peak of curve that WBC and CD34 + cell count changed with applying days was on the 5th .The count of CD34 + cell in the circulating blood was positive referent with the count of WBC in the circulating blood(r=0.835);was not reference with age、 sex、body weight、and the onset time of AMI. There were total 17 complications during the mobilization of circulating blood stem cell. The incidence of complications during mobilization is 37.8%(17/45), including bong pain being 15.6%(7/45)、fever being 6.7 %(3/45)、pale being 4.4 %(2/45)、tetter being 4.4 %(2/45)、deterioration of heart failure being 4.4 %(2/45),spleen thrombosis being 2.2 %(1/45).No death happened. Conclusion : In patients with AMI, the mobilized peak of WBC and CD34 + cell counts changed with applying days was at the 5th, and the count of CD34 + cell in the circulating blood was positive referent with the count of WBC in the circulating blood(r=0.940),was negative referent with body weight of patients(r=-0.398). And mobilization of autologous circulating blood stem cell was feasible and safe.

Objective To investigate the possible mechanisms of enhancing angiogenesis and arteriogenesis through the oberservation of the effect of gene transfer of angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) on its receptor Tie2 in rat models of acute myocardial infarction. Methods Myocardial infarction was induced in rats by left anterior descending artery ligation. Naked plasmid DNA encoding human angiopoietin-1 (phAng1) was delivered into the ischemic area (group A) by intramyocardial injection. On day 3, 7, 14 and 28 after the injection, the mRNA expression of Tie2 and its changes with time were determined by RT-PCR. The number of vessels and arterioles was examined by immunohistochemistry. The collagen was evaluated by Masson staining. Results RT-PCR showed that mRNA expression levels of Tie2 in group A were significantly higher than those in the control group, reached the highest level on day 7 post-injection, and gradually declined to normal level 28 days later. On day 7, 14 and 28, the vessel count showed the number of blood vessels (angiogenesis and arteriogenesis) in group A was greater than that of the control group at the same timepoint and the infracted myocardium in group A was significantly less than that of the control group. Conclusion Gene transfer of phAng1 enhances angiogenesis and arteriogenesis in acute myocardial infarction and reduces the infraction area probably by upregulating the expressions of Tie2 receptor.
