1.Effects of hydrogen peroxide on cell membrane ion channels
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2001;17(1):14-17
The H2O2 has been shown to have comprahensive actions on various ion channels of cell membrane. But it has different effects on different tissues. H2O2-induced a dose dependent decreasing L- type Ca2+ current on cultrued Lymnaea neurons. In sheep cardiac SR, H2O2 plays an important role in regulating directly on RyR Ca2+-release channel that caused an increasing of P0, but it was no effects on conductance. It indicated that H2O2-induced different activities on KCa channel with different tissues. In guinea pig ventricular myocytes, H2O2-induced increase in KATP channels. There are few data on the effects of H2O2 on whole cell Na+ currents and single Na+ channels.

Objectives:The aim of this study was to assess the influence of graft anastomosis strategies of radial artery on the flow characteristics and early patency in coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG). Methods:Present study enrolled 99 patients(92 males,7 females,aged[57.2±8.7]years),who underwent isolated CABG using a radial artery(RA)graft from January 2019 to December 2021 in our department.The RA was proximally anastomosed to the aorta in 79 patients(group 1)and to another graft as a composite graft in 20 patients(group 2).The intraoperative flow characteristics were evaluated with the transit time flow measurement(TTFM),and the graft patency was assessed by computed tomography coronary angiograms perioperatively and at 1year after operation respectively. Results:Baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups(all P>0.05).There was no perioperative death.Incidence of minimally invasive cardiac surgery for CABG(MICS CABG)and mean flow(MF)of RA grafts were both higher in group 2 than in group 1(all P<0.05).Perioperative RA graft failure rate was 24.2%(n=24),which tended to be lower in group 2 than in group 1(10.0%vs.27.8%,P=0.096).CT angiography showed that RA graft failure reduced to 16.1%at one year after operation.Compared to patency group,patients with failure RA grafts perioperatively had higher pulse index(PI)and lower intraoperative MF(all P<0.05).Patients with failure RA grafts at one year after operation had higher PI and more bypassed to the right coronary artery(RCA)target territories of RA grafts(all P<0.05). Conclusions:RA proximal anastomosis to the aorta or to another graft dose not affect the perioperative patency in CABG.Some RA graft that failed perioperatively might recanalize at one year after operation.High intraoperative PI and bypassed to RCA of RA grafts may be predictors of graft failure at one year after operation.

Objective To explore the availability and safety of ileal ureter replacement combined with ileal augmentation cystoplasty in treating ureteral stenosis with contracted bladder.Methods From August 2015 to November 2018,three patients who underwent ileal ureter replacement combined with augmentation cystoplasty were treated with ileal ureter replacement combined with augmentation cystoplasty.There were 1 male and 2 females with the age ranging from 34 to 55 years (mean 39 years).Two patients suffered from left ureter stenosis,and one patient had stenosis on the both sides.The length of the ureter stenosis ranged from 6 to 18 cm (mean 9.8 cm).The preoperative bladder capacity ranged from 60 to 150 ml (mean 103.3 ml).In the surgery,part of ileum was used to replace the ureter,and the distal intestine was made into U-shape to enlarge the bladder.Results All operation were completed successfully.The operation time ranged from 220 to 400 min (mean 303.0 min),and the blood loss ranged from 150 to 500 ml (mean 283.3 ml).Laparoscopic surgery was performed in 1 case and open surgery in 2 cases.Three weeks after the surgery,the bladder volume underwent cystography ranged from 300 to 400 ml (mean 360.0 ml).Three months after the surgery,the postvoid residual urine volume ranged from 20 to 50 ml (mean 33.3 ml).Postoperative frequency and urgency of urine were completely relieved in 1 case,alleviated in 2 cases.Flank pain was completely relieved in 1 case,and alleviated in 2 cases postoperatively.The serum creatinine of 2 patients mildly increased after the surgery,while 1 patient remained stable.For complications,1 patient had urinary infection,and 1 patient suffered from metabolic acidosis.Conclusions Ileal ureteral replacement combined with augmentation cystoplasty can be the choice of treatment for long segment ureteral stenosis and enlarge the bladder simultaneously.The postoperative complications and the kidney functions should be regularly followed up.
