Objective　To explore the efficacy of large dose of magnesium sulfate used to treat patients with brain trauma. 　Methods　According to standards 32 patients were chosen and divided into experimental group and control group at random. Sixteen patients in experimental group received 16 mmol magnesium sulfate intravenously over 15 minutes, followed by 65 mmol over 24 hours; while 16 patients in control group received nothing. Serum NSE, GCS and GOS of all the patients were measured after 3 days, 2 weeks and 6 months, respectively and the data were analyzed statistically. 　Results　The serum NSE, GCS and GOS in experimental group were (24.8±19.2) μg/L, 12.3±3.3 and 3.6±1.4, respectively; while the serum NSE, GCS and GOS in control group were (49.7±23.1) μg/L, 9.8±2.8 and 3.1±1.6, respectively. Between the two groups the serum NSE and GCS were different significantly (P<0.01, P<0.05, respectively) while the GOS was not (P>0.05).　 Conclusions　Large dose of magnesium sulfate is effective to treat patients with brain injury at least within a short term.

Objective To observe the analgesic effects of preoperative tramadol caudal injection in patients after receiving gynaecological laparoscopy under general anesthesia. Methods A total of 60 patients scheduled for gynaecological laparoscopic operations under general anesthesia was randomly divided into two groups with 30 patients each.The Group A was given an injection of tramadol 100 mg,2% lidocaine 5 ml,ondansetron 4 mg,and normal saline 20 ml by caudal route preoperatively,while the Group B was given an intravenous drip of tramadol 100 mg and ondansetron 4 mg at 10 minutes before the end of operation.The Visual Analog Scale(VAS) pain scores and the Ramsay Sedation Scores were recorded after extubation,before the departure from operation room,and at 1,3,and 6 hours after surgery,respectively.Adverse effects of dysphoria,dizziness,drowsiness,nausea,and vomiting were recorded.Results The VAS scores were significantly lower after extubation,before the departure from operation room,and at 1 and 3 hours after surgery in the Group A than in the Group B(t=-5.961,-8.362,-4.038,-3.565;P=0.000), while the difference was not significant between the two groups at 6 hours after surgery(t=-1.403,P=0.166).The Ramsay scores were significantl higher after extubation,before the departure from operation room,and at 1 and 3 hours after surgery in the Group A than in the Group B(t=9.409,10.407,8.167,4.082;P=0.000),while the difference was not significant between the two groups at 6 hours after surgery(t=0.428,P=0.670).Significantly more patients presented dysphoria,dizziness,nausea,and vomiting in the Group B than in the Group A after extubation and before the departure from operation room.Conclusions Tramadol 100 mg caudal injection before operation can produce a better postoperative analgesic effect in patients receiving gynaecological laparoscopic operations.

Objective To investigate the expression of human telomerase reverse transcriptase(hTRT) in meningiomas,the correlation with malignancy grade and the prognostic significance of hTRT activity.Methods The expression of hTRT and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) in 43 meningiomas was examined by immunohistochemical technique.Postive rates of hTRT between histopathologically different grades were analyzed,and so did between initial detected case group and recurrent case group.The labelling indexes of PCNA between hTRT-positive group and hTRT-negative group were also analysed.Results Of 43 meningiomas examined,19(44%) demonstrated the expression of hTRT.hTRT was present in 3 of 26 benign meningiomas(11 5%),10 of 11 atypical meningiomas(90%) and 6 of 6 malignant meningiomas(100%),respectively(P

Objective To investigate the effect on electrical restitution of β1-adrenergic receptor antagonist esmolol administered during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the porcine ventricular fibrillation model. Method Ventricular fibrillation untreated for four minutes was induced by dynamic steady state pacing protocol in 40 healthy male pigs, in which local unipolar electrograms were recorded using one 10-electrode catheter that was sutured to the left ventrieular epicarditan. During CPR, animals were randomized into two groups to receive saline as placebo or esmolol after two standards doses of epinephrine. At postresuscitation 2-hour, six pigs were randomly selected from each group and the second VF induction was performed. Local activation-recovery intervals (ARI) restitutions and the VF inducibility between control group and esmolol group were compared. Western blotting was performed to determine cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) protein expression, and their phosphorylation status. Results No sig-nificant differences were observed at the restoration of spontaneous circulation between two groups. Higher postre-suseitation 2-hour survival rate was observed in the esmolol group. Esmolol significantly flattened ARI restitution slope, lessened regional difference of ARI restitution, decreased the VF inducibility, and alleviated RyR2 hyper-phosphorylation. Conclusions Esmolol given during CPR significantly improved postresuscitation 2-hour survival rate. Its effects on modulating electrical restitution property and intracellular calcium handling make up the most important reasons why β1-blockade significantly reduced the onset and maintenance of VF.

Breast cancer and thyroid diseases are common diseases in women.It is reported that breast cancer and thyroid diseases have some relevance.Breast cancer patients have relatively high incidence of thyroid dysfunction,thyroid node and thyroid cancer,which are easily misdiagnosed for lacking of obvious clinical manifestations and will affect the treatment and prognosis of breast cancer.In breast cancer patients,screening and diagnosis of thyroid function and disease through thyroid function detection and ultrasound examination should be strengthened.

Objective To assess the effects of cyclic stretch on fibroblast orientation in order to find the appropriate cyclic stretch to cause maximum fibroblast orientation and to explore the mechanism of cell signalling since cells are known to orient in response to the application of mechanical forces. Methods Human forehead dermal fibroblasts were seeded onto collagen coated flexible membranes. Membranes were then deformed at 10 cycles per minute by the application of 135 mmHg subatmospheric pressure. This corresponded to strain levels of 0% to 24% from the center to extremity of the flexible membrane. Cells orientation angles were studied by inverted microscopy. Integrin ?1 distribution were studied with immunocytochemical staining and confocal microscopy. Integrin ?1 expression and focal adhesion kinase ( FAK) phosphorylation were analyzed with Western blot analysis. Results A minimum of 15% cell stretch was required to significantly stimulate the fibroblast orientation response. Cyclic stretch induced integrin ?1 redistribution and FAK phosphorylation. Incubation of cells with anti-integrin ?1 prior to the application of stretch abrogated fibroblast orientation and FAK phosphorylation. Conclusion Fibroblast orientation in response to cyclic stretch is mediated at least in part by integrin ?1 through phosphorylation of FAK.
