Objective To investigate the effects of controlled hypotension induced with sodium nitroprusside (SNP) or nicardipine on hemodynamics during hip operation and postoperative hepatic and renal function.Methods Twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 20-70 yrs weighing 50-80 kg scheduled for total hip replacement or open reduction and internal fixation of fracture of acetabulum were randomized to receive either SNP (group Ⅰ ) or nicardipine (group Ⅱ ) for induced hypotension during operation. Each group included 10 patients. Radial artery and right internal jugular vein were cannulated for BP and CVP monitoring. The probe of Hemo-Sonic ?100 esophageal supersonic hemodynamic monitor (Arrow U.S.A) was placed in the esophagus and fixed when best signal was obtained. ECG, hemodynamics including MAP, HR, CVP, CO and other parameters, SpO2 and PetCO2 were continuously monitored. Anesthesia was induced with propofol 2 mg?kg-1 , fentanyl 2-3 ?g? kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg-1 and maintained with 1.5% isoflurane and continuous infusion of propofol ( at 4-6 mg?kg-1 ?h-1 ) and intermittent i.v. boluses of vecuronium after tracheal intubation. MAP was reduced to 55-65 mm Hg with SNP (at a rate of 0.5-8.0 ?g?kg-1?min-1 ) or nicardipine (at 1.0-8.0 ?g?kg-1 ?min-1 ) . Intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion and postoperative drainage from the wound were measured and recorded.Hemodynamic parameters were recorded before hypotension and 15, 30 and 60 min after start of induced hypotension and 15 and 30 min after recovery from hypotension. Hepatic and renal functions were measured before and after operation using total bilirubin, AST, ALT, BUN and creatinine. Results The two groups were comparable with respect to sex ratio (M/F) , age, height, body weight, duration of induced hypotension and operation. MAP and systemic vascular resistance (SVR) were significantly reduced and tachycardia developed during hypotension in both groups. The left ventricular ejection time was significantly prolonged and aortic blood flow (ABF) and cardiac output (CO) were significantly increased and CVP was lowered during hypotension as compared to the baseline values in SNP group. BUN was significantly reduced after operation ( P

Objective To explore the incidence and pathologic feature of patients with thyroid carcinoma treated at the First Hospital of Jilin University. Methods From January 2000 to July 2010,clinicopathologic data of 1018 patients with thyroid carcinoma treated in the First Hospital of Jilin University were retrospectively analyzed. Results The cases of thyroid carcinoma between 2008 and 2010 were more than 73% higher than that in the preceding 8 years. Cancer cases from January 2009 to July 2010 were more1018 cases reviewed, 976 cases were clearly classified pathologically. Papillary thyroid carcinoma, follicular thyroid carcinoma, medullary thyroid carcinoma and anaplastic thyroid carcinoma were present in 897 (91.91%), 43(4. 41% ), 22(2. 25% ) and 6(0. 61% ) cases respectively. Of the 1018 cases reviewed,804 cases were recorded with or without lymphnode metastasis. The rate of lymphnode metastasis of male and female patient were 39. 24% and 28. 64% respectively and the difference was significant( χ2 = 6. 71 ,P <0. 05). The rate of lymphnode metastasis of age <45 years and age ≥45 years were 37.65% and 23. 26%respectively and the difference was significant ( χ2 = 19. 54, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusions In the past ten and a half years, the number of the thyroid carcinoma patients treated in the First Hospital of Jilin University increased year by year. The increase of papillary thyroid carcinoma was the most obvious. Thyroid carcinoma was more common among females. The peak incidence age of males and females was 30 -59. The rate of lymphnode metastasis of males was larger than that of females. The rate of lymphnode metastasis of age <45years was larger than that of age≥45 years.

AIM: To explore the expression of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) in the endometrium of rats with polycystic ovarian syndrom (PCOS) and evaluate the relationship between GLUT4 expression and insulin resistance (IR). METHODS: 54 female SD rats of 85 days were randomized to control group (n=20), PCOS model group (n=17) and metformin treatment group (n=17). The rats in the latter two groups were induced by Poretsky's method for PCOS model, followed by placebo or metformin, respectively. After 14 days of treatment, the rats were sacrificed and the expression of GLUT4 in endometrium was detected by ElivisionTM Plus two steps immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS: The expression of GLUT4 and insulin receptor(INS-R) proteins of endometrial glandulan epitheliu in PCOS rats were significantly lower (P

Objective To compare the different doses of low-temperature plasma (LTP) on wound healing in BALB/c mice so as to discuss the effects of the optimal dose of low-temperature plasma dealing with wound in mice and the acting mechanism of wound healing.Methods Adoptatmospheric pressure plasma jet discharged by the dielectric barrier was used to treat mouse skin wound.According to the processing time, the wounds were divided into 10s, 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s experimental groups, while naturally healing wounds served as negative controls and the wounds dealt with recombinant human epidermal growth factor served as positive controls.We recorded the wound size every day, observed the histopathological changes, the expression level of type Ⅰ collagen by immunofluorescence, and analyzed the composition of low-temperature plasma jet.Results The wounds with plasma treatment time of 10s, 20s, 30s, and 40s showed significant daily improvement and almost complete closure at days 12, 10, 7, 13, respectively.However, the wounds with plasma treatment time of 50s remained unhealed atday 14.The wounds in positive control group all healed, and the wound healing effect in positive control group could be achieved in 30s group.HE staining and immunofluorescence staining assays showed the optimal result of epidermal cell regeneration, granulation tissue hyperplasia, and collagen deposition in histological aspect at day 7 in 30 s group.The low-temperature plasma jet contained highly reactive free radicals of nitrogen and oxygen, which play an important role in wound healing process.Conclusion Appropriate doses of cold plasma can accelerate wound healing whereas over-doses of plasma can suppress wound healing.The process of wound healing may be related to reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in LTP.

Objective To explore the effects of Chinese herbal compound Tangbikang on the expressions of p38 MAPK of sciatic nerve and plasma TNF-α in diabetic rats. Methods Ten of the sixty male SD rats were selected randomly as normal group, and the rest were fed with high-fat diet and low-dosage STZ was used to induce type Ⅱdiabetic rat models. Model rats were randomly divided into model group, mecobalamine group and Tangbikang low-, medium-, and high-dosage groups, 10 rats in each group. Each medication group was intervened with relevant medicine. Rat unilaterals sciatic nerves were taken after 16 weeks. The content of TNF-α in plasma was determined by radioimmunoassay. Western blot method was used to detect the expressions of p38 and p-p38 MAPK protein of sciatic nerve. Results Compared with normal group, the expressions of p38 and p-p38 protein and content of TNF-αin model group significantly increase (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the expressions of p-p38 protein and the content of TNF-α significantly decreased after medicine intervention in different doses Tangbikang groups and mecobalamin group (P<0.05, P<0.01). The expression of p38 protein in Tangbikang high-dose group significantly decreased (P<0.05), with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Tangbikang can reduce the expression of p38 and p-p38 MAPK protein of the rat sciatic nerve, and reduce the content of TNF-α protein in rat plasma, which may be one of the effective targets of neuroprotection and abirritation of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Lactic acid is an important platform chemical. Especially with rapid development of poly (lactic acid) industry, the demand for L-lactic acid is continuously increasing. To further reduce the fermentation costs and improve the robustness of strains from industrial point of view, many modern biotechnological approaches have been applied to strain development. In this review, we briefly summarize recent advances in L-lactate fermentation by genetically modified microorganisms, including lactic acid bacteria, yeast, E. coli and Rhizopus species.
