Objective To investigate the effects of remifentanil on lipopolysaccharide ( LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in rabbits.Methods Thirty healthy male New Zealand white rabbits weighing 2.5-3.5 kg were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 6 each) : group Ⅰ control (group C) ;group Ⅱ ALI;group Ⅲ, Ⅳ, Ⅴ low, median and high dose RF + LPS (group LR, MR, HR) . The animals were anesthetized with intravenous 3% pentobarbital sodium 30 mg/kg, tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated. The carotid artery and jugular vein were cannulated for MAP and HR monitoring, blood sampling, and fluid and drug administration. LPS 0.5 mg/kg in 10 ml of normal saline (NS) was infused over 30 min in group Ⅱ-Ⅴ. Remifentanil 0.2, 0.4 or 0.8 μg·kg~(-1)·min~(-1) was infused starting from 15 min before LPS administration until the death of the animals. MAP, HR, peak airway pressure (P_(peak) ), PaO_2 and plasma intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) concentration were measured immediately before LPS infusion (T_0, baseline) and at 1, 2.5 and 5.5 h after the end of LPS infusion. The animals were killed and the lungs were immediately removed for microscopic examination and determination of W/D lung weight ratio. Results MAP, HR and PaO_2 were significantly decreased while W/D ratio and P_(peak) were significantly increased after iv LPS infusion as compared with control group. LPS significantly increased plasma ICAM-1 concentration and damaged the structure of lung tissue. Remifentanil infusion significantly attenuated the LPS-induced changes in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion RF has protective effect against LPS-induced ALI and inhibition of ICAM-1 expression is involved in the mechanism.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of surgical treatment and ultrasonic guidance percutaneous radiofrequency ablation(PRFA) therapy in the treatment of liver cancer.Methods 78 patiens with live cancer were randomly divided into the operation group and PRFA group,each group had 39 patients.The operation group was treated with traditional open surgery,the PRFA group was treated with radiofrequency ablation.The clinical effect was compared between the two groups.Results All patients were followed up after therapy,the 1,2,3-year survival rate between operation group and PRFA group had no significant differences (all P ＞ 0.05),but in the patients whose tumor were central type and samller than 3cm,the 1,2,3-year survival rate of PRFA group were significantly higher than operation group(x2 =4.819,4.815,4.919,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ultrasonic guidance percutaneous radiofrequency ablation therapy in the treatment of liver tumor is effective,and the effect is better than operation group,especially for the patients with central type tumor and the tumor samller than 3cm.

Objective To explore the effect of loading density of different rigid containers on wet package of orthopedic instruments in the department of orthopedics and to provide the basis for right loading of rigid container so as to ensure the success of the sterilization. Methods About 120 cases of orthopedic exotic instruments for knee surgery were selected from our hospital, according to size and weight of the knee surgery instrument and then evenly divided into Groups A, B, C, 40 pieces in each group. Each group for loading had the same length and width. In Group A, the loading was at 1/2 of the container height, in Group B, the loading was at 2/3 of the container height and in Group C the loading was 4/5 of the container height. The 3 groups were given high pressure steam sterilization, the sterilization temperature, sterilization time and drying time were the same, while biological and chemical monitoring was done. After sterilization, the three groups were compared in terms of the biological and chemical monitoring results as well as the incidence of wet pack. Results There were no significant differences between the 3 groups in the qualification rate of indicator cards and the biological monitoring after sterilization in the 5 kinds of packages among the 3 groups of rigid containers (P>0.05). The incidence of wet package in Group A was significantly lower than that of Group C (χ2=6.80, P=0.009<0.017), but no difference was found between Groups B and C ,Group B and C Group . Conclusions The loading density of different rigid containers affects the incidence of wet package of the orthopedic instruments. Our findings indicate that the loading of the instruments in a rigid container reaches the 2/3~4/5 height of the container, for it can reduce the incidence of wet package of orthopedic instruments.

Objective To investigate the expression of NDRG1 and its relationship to differentiation level and metastasis in prostate cancer. Methods The expression NDRG1 was examined by immunohistochemistry LSAB method in 86 samples of prostate cancer and benigh prostate hyperplasia. Results The NDRG1 was shown to be highly expressed in 30(73.3%)of prostate cancer and 70.0%of benign prostate hyperplasia.There were no evident difference between prostate cancer and prestate hyperplasia(P＞0.05).The expression of NDRG1 was gradually reduction with the Gleason score from 2-4 to 5-7 to 8-10 in prostate cancer, which was statistical significance(P＜0.05).The expression of NDRG1 in lymph node or bone metastasis was significantly lower than that in no metastasis of prostate cancer. There was a negative correlation between the expression of NDRG1 and lymph node or bone metastasis. The age had no correlation with the expression of NDRG1(P＞0.05).Conclusion NDRG1 is involved in the genesis and development of prostate cancer, which may be related to the differentiation level of prostate cancer and serve as a useful marker for early diagnosis of cancer and metastasis.

Objective To investigate influence of hyperlipidemia in parents on plasma lipid level,blood pressure,body mass index(BMI) and waist circumference(WC)of their children.Methods Eighty children whose parents had been with hyperlipidemia(Group A) and 893 children whose parents had been normal plasma lipid levels(Group B) were studied.BMI,systolic pressure(SP),diastolic pressure(DP),WC,plasma triglyceride(TG),cholesterol(CH),high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-c),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-c)of two groups were measured and compared.Results The levels of BMI,TG,TCH,LDL-c,SP,and DP had a increasing trend in group A compared to those of group B.HDL-c in group A had a decreasing trend compared to that of group B.But only the increase of BMI is significant(P

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and the endocrine changes in children with craniopharyngioma,and to improve the pediatrician understanding of the disease.Methods The study subjects consisted of 14 children with craniopharyngioma admitted to the Department of Endocrinology,Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from Jan.2004 to Dec.2012.All the patients were followed up to analyze the clinical symptoms improvement,endocrine test results and medication,et al.Results The main clinical manifestations were headache (7/14 cases,50.0％),growth retardation(4/14 cases,28.6％),vomiting (4/14 cases,28.6％),polydipsia/ polyuria (3/14 cases,21.4％) and vision diminution (3/14 cases,21.4％).Three patients didn' t undergo the surgery,and 3 cases with diabetes insipidus and 2 cases with growth hormone deficiency,and 1 case with central hypothyroidism by laboratory test.The rest 11 children received surgery and all patients had changes in endocrine after it.Five cases got polydipsia and polyuria,other 5 cases had electrolyte disturbances,and 2 cases had epilepsy.Nine patients were followed up,and the follow-up duration ranged from 5 months to 10 years [(3.29 ± 3.52) years] after surgery.Seven patients got better and 2 patients got worse.Conclusions For clinical symptoms of increased intracranial pressure,changes in endocrine,the vision and visual field,the possibility of craniopharyngioma should be taken into account.Surgery is the main treatment,but it can lead to the damage of hypothalamus and pituitary gland.Changes in endocrine,electrolyte disturbances and epilepsy are the common complications.According to the level of endocrine,longterm hormone replacement therapy for some postoperative patients should be continued.

[Summary] During recent years, increasing evidences have indicated that type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) might increase the risk of certain tumors; the process might be not only related with the chronic pathologic status of T2DM such as hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, status of chronic inflammation but also associated with the long-term use of anti-diabetic drugs (i. e. sulfonylureas, biguanides, glitazones, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptitide-1 receptor agonists), as well as the use of insulin and insulin analogues. Herewith a system review was made about the recent progress in studying T2DM and tumor risk.
