Objective To investigate the changes in plasma concentrations of IL-6 and IL-10, pHi and the difference between tissue and arterial PCO2 [(P(t-a)CO2 ] during pulmonary surgery and the effects of thoracic epidural anesthesia on cytokine production and gut mucosal perfusion. Methods Twenty ASA class Ⅰ - Ⅱ patients undergoing elective pulmonary surgery, were randomly assigned to be operated upon under general anesthesia (group GA , n = 10) or under general anesthesia combined with thoracic epidural anesthesia (group GEA, n - 10) . Premedication in both groups consisted of pethidine 50mg and scopolamine 0.3 mg im 30 min prior to surgery and oral ranitidine 150 mg the night and 1 h before operation. Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 2 ug?kg-1 , droperidol 1 mg, propofol 1.5-2.5 mg?kg-1 and succinylcholine 1-2 mg?kg-1 and maintained with inhalation of 1%-2.5% isoflurane and 50% N2O in oxygen and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium. In GEA group epidural catheter was inserted through the needl placed at T7-8 or T8-9 and advanced cephalad for 2.5-3.0 cm. A loading dose of morphine 2 mg was given followed by epidural infusion of 0.4% ropivacaine at a rate of 6 ml?h-1 during maintenance of anesthesia and the concentration of isoflurance inhaled was reduced to 0.6%-1. 5% . Postoperative analgesia was provided by epidural infusion of 0.25% ropivacaine at 6-8 ml/2h until the morning of the 3rd postoperative day. Blood samples were taken before induction, at incision and 2 h, 4 h and 6 h after the incision and on the 1st and the morning of the 3rd postoperative day for determination of IL-6 ( by radioimmunoassay) and IL-10 (ELISA) . P(t-a)CO2 and pHi were assessed by tonometry before induction, at incision and 1 h, 2 h, 4 h and 6 h after the incision. Results (1) IL-6 and IL-10 increased significantly during operation as compared with the baseline value before induction in both groups and there was no significant difference between the two groups. (2) pHi decreased significantly during operation in both groups and there was no significant difference between the two groups. pHi was negatively correlated with IL-6. (3) P(t-a)CO2 increased significantly during operation in both groups and was negatively correlated with pHi. P(t-a)CO2 was significantly higher in GA group than that in GEA group at 4h after skin incision. Conclusion Pulmonary surgery elicits both pro- and and-inflammatory cytokine response which is not affected by thoracic epidural analgesia. Thoracic surgery leads to gut mucosal hypoperfusion of which P(t-a)CO2 is an indicator. Thoracic epidural anesthesia can improve gut mucosal perfusion. There may be some correlation between cytokine production and gut mucosal hypoperfusion.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown that Taohong Siwu Decoction can alleviate the damage of vascular endothelial cells and maintain their normal secretory function, and endothelial progenitor cells can promote the repair of endothelial injury. Therefore, it is assumed that Taohong Siwu Decoction may protect endothelial function by improving the functional activity and increasing the number of endothelial progenitor cells. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether Taohong Siwu Decoction can augment the number and functional activity of peripheral blood endothelial progenitor cells. METHODS: Endothelial progenitor cells were isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy subjects, and divided into control, low-, moderateand high-concentration Taohong Siwu Decoction groups. Cells were then cultured to observe the dose-effect relationship within 24 hours. Meanwhile, the high-concentration Taohong Siwu Decoction group was cultured for respective time points (6, 12, 24 and 48 hours) for observing the time-effect relationship. The number of endothelial progenitor cells was counted under inverted phase contrast microscope. Proliferation, adhesion and migration of endothelial progenitor cells were detected by MTT chromatometry, adhesion activity assay and modified Boyden chamber assay, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The proliferation, adhesion and migration abilities of endothelial progenitor cells in the Taohong Siwu Decoction groups were significantly higher than those in the control group and showed a certain dose-effect relationship. (2) The proliferation, adhesion and migration abilities of endothelial progenitor cells in the Taohong Siwu Decoction groups were enhanced in a time-dependent manner, especially at 24 hours after intervention (P < 0.01). To conclude, the Taohong Siwu Decoction can increase the number of endothelial progenitor cells and promote cell functions. High-concentration Taohong Siwu Decoction exhibits the best interventional effect at 24 hours after intervention.

Objective To establish a finite element model of the T2-L5 thoracolumbar spine and verify its validity,to provide numerical model support for exploring the dynamic response characteristics and injury mechanism under spinal impact loads.Methods A three-dimensional(3D)finite element model of the T2-L5 thoracolumbar spine was established based on CT scanning data.The load-rotation angle curve of the T12-L1 segment under different moments(flexion,extension,rotation,and lateral bending conditions)was calculated and compared with the data reported in the literature.Free-fall loads at different heights were applied to the finite element models of the T2-6,T7-11,and T12-L5 spine.The peak axial force and bending moment were obtained by finite element simulation analysis and compared with data reported in the literature.Results The maximum rotation angle of the T12-L1 finite element model was-2.24°-1.55° under moments in different directions,which was in good agreement with the literature data.The peak axial force of T2-6,T7-11,and T12-L5 spine finite element models subjected to different free-fall loads was 1.7-5.3 kN,1.3-5.5 kN,and 1.3-7.5 kN respectively,which were within the error range reported in the literature.Stress nephograms of the spine and intervertebral discs showed that the vertebral body was first stressed from the outer edge.The intervertebral disc was subjected to the main load by the nucleus pulposus,consistent with the actual spinal injury mechanism.Conclusions The T2-L5 spine model established in this study can correctly simulate the biomechanical behavioral characteristics of the spine under different working conditions,and the analysis results are effective.

Background:
Our previously prepared ceftiofur (CEF) hydrochloride oily suspension shows potential wide applications for controlling swine Streptococcus suis infections, while the irrational dose has not been formulated.
Objectives:
The rational dose regimens of CEF oily suspension against S. suis were systematically studied using a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model method.
Methods:
The healthy and infected pigs were intramuscularly administered CEF hydrochloride oily suspension at a single dose of 5 mg/kg, and then the plasma and pulmonary epithelial lining fluid (PELF) were collected at different times. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimal bactericidal concentration, mutant prevention concentration (MPC), post-antibiotic effect (PAE), and time-killing curves were determined. Subsequently, the area under the curve by the MIC (AUC 0–24h /MIC) values of desfuroylceftiofur (DFC) in the PELF was obtained by integrating in vivo pharmacokinetic data of the infected pigs and ex vivo pharmacodynamic data using the sigmoid E max (Hill) equation. The dose was calculated based on the AUC 0–24h /MIC values for bacteriostatic action, bactericidal action, and bacterial elimination.
Results:
The peak concentration, the area under the concentration-time curve, and the time to peak for PELF's DFC were 24.76 ± 0.92 µg/mL, 811.99 ± 54.70 μg·h/mL, and 8.00 h in healthy pigs, and 33.04 ± 0.99 µg/mL, 735.85 ± 26.20 μg·h/mL, and 8.00 h in infected pigs, respectively. The MIC of PELF's DFC against S. suis strain was 0.25 µg/mL. There was strong concentration-dependent activity as determined by MPC, PAE, and the time-killing curves. The AUC 0–24h /MIC values of PELF's DFC for bacteriostatic activity, bactericidal activity, and virtual eradication of bacteria were 6.54 h, 9.69 h, and 11.49 h, respectively. Thus, a dosage regimen of 1.94 mg/kg every 72 h could be sufficient to reach bactericidal activity.
Conclusions
A rational dosage regimen was recommended, and it could assist in increasing the treatment effectiveness of CEF hydrochloride oily suspension against S. suis infections.
