Objective To compare the short-term curative effects of prucalopride and mosapride respectively combined with low dose polyethylene glycol in treating elderly refractory functional constipation.Methods Ninety patients with elderly refractory functional constipation in the outpatient department of our hospital from May 2014 to February 2016 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into two groups randomly,45 cases in each group.the prucalopride group:Prucalopride Succinate Tablets,2mg,4 times daily;the mosapride group:Mosapride Citrate Capsules,5mg,3 times daily.Polyethylene Glycol Electrolytes Powder(PEG) was also used in the two groups,13.125g,twice daily.The course of treatment was 4 weeks.The first defecating time and defecation difficulty relief time,average weekly spontaneous complete bowel movements (SCBM),defecating difficulty,stool character,adverse reactions and change of life quality were observed in the two groups.Results The treatment effective rate of slow transit constipation(STC) and defecatory disorder had the statistical difference between the two groups (P<0.05).The comparison of the effective rates in mixed type showed no statistical difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Compared with the mosapride group,the first defecating time and defecation difficulty relief time in the prucalopride group were shorter with statistical difference (P<0.05).After 4-week treatment,SCBM times per week in the two groups were more than 3 times;the times of the prucalopride group were even more.In the prucalopride group,the defecation difficulty improvement was more obvious,the difference between the two groups had statistical significance (P<0.05).As for the comparison of the stool character improvement,the difference had no statistical significance(P>0.05).The total effective rate had statistical difference between the two groups(P<0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reactions had no statistical difference between the two groups(17.78% vs.15.56%,P<0.05).The total average score of PAC-QOL after treatment in the two groups were both decreased,moreover the decrease in the prucalopride group was more obvious;the difference between the two groups had statistical significance(P<0.05).Conclusion Prucalopride +PEG take effect faster in the treatment of elderly refractory functional constipation and has the advantages in the aspects of overall curative effect and life quality improvement,which is specially suitable for STC and defecatory disorder type.

OBJECTIVE This study is to investigate the effects on nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines(CNE-2Z)induced by As2O3 and its possible mechanisms.METHODS CNE-2Z cells were treated with various concentrations of As2O3 for different times.The IC50 values were detected by trypan blue stain assay to choose the optimal concentration of As2O3.Cell cycle redistribution was analyzed by flow cytometry.The expression levels of p16、 RASSF1A、DNMT 3B mRNA were assessed by RT-PCR.RESULTS The suppression of cell proliferation by As2O3 was time and dose-dependent.After being treated with different concentration of As2O3,the IC50 values of As2O3 were(1.50?0.05),(1.09?0.13),(0.65?0.04)?mol/L at 24,48,and 72h,respectively.As2O3 also arrested CNE-2Z cells in G2/M phase of cell cycle.After CNE-2Z cells being treated with As2O3,the expression of RASSF1A mRNA were up-regulated(P

Objective To evaluate the clinical features and guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase 1 (GCH-1) gene mutation in a family with dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD).Methods The clinical features of this family were collected and their peripheral blood samples were screened for mutation in GCH-1 gene using PCR and DNA direct sequencing.Results The clinical features among each patient in this family were different.But all affected family members had quite a good response to levodopa treatment without significant adverse reactions.DNA test showed an AT deletion mutation at point of 631-632 in the 6th exon of GCH-1 gene in 5 affected members and 1 asymptomatic immediate family member.Conclusions Clinical heterogeneity is an important characteristic of DRD and clinical symptoms vary intra-families.Same gene type may cause different phenotype and not all carriers are patients.The deletion mutation at point of 631-632 in the 6th exon of GCH-1 gene should be considered as a pathogenic mutation for DRD.

Objective To research etomidate or propofol in the whole intubation during the induction of elderly coronary heart disease autonomic nervous system function. Methods Ninety patients undergoing abdominal surgery patients with coronary heart disease were randomly divided into etomidate group (E group, 45 cases) and propofol group (P group, 45 cases). In pre-anesthesia, after the induction of anesthesia and after intubatiou with power spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRPSA) observed in patients with heart rate variability (HRV) changes. Results After the induction of anesthesia, the low frequency(LF)[(316±301) ms2/Hz] end total power(TP)[(756±535) ms2/Hz] decreased significantly in E group(P<0.05) and LF, high frequency (HF), LF/HF ratio(LF/HF)and TP decreased significantly in P group [ (187±168) ms2/Hz, (89±48)ms2/Hz, 2.3±1.6 and (616±462) ms2/Hz] (P<0.05). The duction degree of LF, HF, TP and LF/HF in E group was more significant than that in P group (P<0.05). After intubation, LF, HF, LF/HF and TP increased significantly in both groups and no significant difference of HRV was observed between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Propofol decreases the activity of autonomic nervous system, wherea etomidate produces minimal changes under anesthesia induction in elderly coronary heart disease patients.There is no remarkable difference in cardiovasological changes induced by etomidate and propofol during tracheal intubation.

Objective To observe the curative effect of erythrocyte separation in the treatment of patients with polycythemia vera (PV). Methods Sixty- five patients with P- were selected, and the patients were divided into control group (20 cases) and observation group (45 cases) according to the treatment method. All patients of 2 groups were treated with oral hydroxyurea and intramuscular interferon, but the patients of observation group combined with erythrocyte separation. The hemoglobin and hematocrit (HCT) before and after treatment and untoward reaction were compared between 2 groups. Results There were no statistical differences in hemoglobin and HCT before treatment between 2 groups:(196 ± 17) g/L vs. (182 ± 23) g/L and 0.606 ± 0.049 vs. 0.578 ± 0.066, P>0.05. The hemoglobin and HCT levels after treatment in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group:(153 ± 27) g/L vs. (168 ± 14) g/L and 0.490 ± 0.050 vs. 0.539 ± 0.054, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There was no obvious untoward reaction in 2 groups. Conclusions Erythrocyte separation is one of first choices for PV. It is safe and effective, and has less obvious untoward reaction.

Objective To analyze the changes of energy metabolism-related proteins(enzymes) and transformation of energy metabolism in transplanted heart.Methods The hearts transplanted from Lewis to Wister rats as allografts and from Lewis to Lewis rats as isografts were used to estab- lish Ono model.The changes in proteins were observed by using proteomics technique and compared between allografts and isografts in the left ventricular myocardial tissues 2 and 8 weeks after heart transplantation.Peptide mass fingerprint map was obtained by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ ionization time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS)and the matched proteins achieved by using Matrix Science software.Results Eighty proteins(enzymes)of total 65 differential proteins that regulated energy metabolism were identified in allografted hearts,which correlated to the Krebs cycle and electron transport system involving glycometabolism,fatty acid and branched-chain amino acids oxidation.Conclusion The energy metabolism in allografts heart was transformed:mitochondria function was decreased in Krebs cycle but enhanced in electron transport system and outer mitoehon- drial membrane permeability to ATP,accelerated in glycolysis and fatty acid oxidation,however, branched-chain amino acids oxidation were suppressed.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the trend of resistance of antimicrobial agents among clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae 1996-2005.METHODS Agar diffusion test was used to analyze the changes in drug susceptibility of K.pneumoniae isolated from 11 hospitals in Shanghai to antimicrobial agents.RESULTS The resistance rates of K.pneumoniae to antimicrobial agents mostly increased 1996-2005.The resistance rates to piperacillin,cefazolin and cefuroxime remained at high levels(more than 50%),while which to cefotaxime(29.3-45.2%) and piperacillin/tazobactam(5.1-20.6%) were increased obviously.Carbapenems were the most active agents against the K.pneumoniae isolates.The resistance rates to ciprofloxacin increased from 14.4% to 35.8%.The detectable rate of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases-producing strains in K.pneumoniae increased from 30.1% to 42.0%.CONCLUSIONS The trend of resistance of K.pneumoniae to commonly used antimicrobials was upward 1996-2005.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the diagnostic value of multi-slice CT (MSCT) and multi-dimensional reconstructions for congenital pulmonary stenosis (PS) in children.MethodsThe enhanced thin CT images of 33 patients with PS were retrospectively analyzed,the data was transmitted to the workstation for multi-planar reformation ( MPR),volume rendering technique (VRT) and maximum intensity projection (MIP).The CT imaging features of PS were analyzed combining with operation resul ts and Ultrasonic Cardiogram (UCG).ResultsIn 33 cases of PS,there were 17 cases with pulmonary valve stenosis (PVS),10 cases with right ventricular infundibulum stenosis (RVIS),and 6 cases with pulmonary trunk stenosis (PTS).The first two were correctly diagnosed by UCG,5 cases of PVS and Icases of RVIS were correctly diagnosed by MSCTA,the later was correctly diagnosed by UCG and MSCTA.In 14 cases with collateral circulations between aorta and pulmonary artery ( APC ),all were correctly diagnosed by MSCTA,only 3 case was diagnosed by UCG,1 case was misdiagnosed as PDA.UCG can clearly demonstrate the others intra-cardiac deformities,such as ASD,VSD,RVH,PFO,SV,DORV,TECD and TBD,the accuracy rate of MSCTA was 39.4％,and MSCTA can clearly demonstrate the origin,course and diameter of extracardiac vascular abnormalities,such as PDA,RAA,TGA,TAPVD,CoA,PLSV and VLSA,the accuracy rate of UCG was 697％.ConclusionsMSCT and multi-dimensional reconstruction were a kind of non-invasive method,it was a good approach for extra-cardiac vascular malformations and APC in PS.Combining with UCG,it can further be used to improve the diagnostic accuracy of intra-cardiac malformation and supply diagnostic evidence for clinical treatment.

Objective To evaluate the effect of remote limb ischemic postconditioning on the level of adiponectin during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods Fifty-seven male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 8 weeks,weighing 250-350 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =19 each):sham operation group (group S); group I/R; remote limb ischemic postconditioning group (group RLIP).Myocardial ischemia was induced by occlusion of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery for 30 min followed by 180 min reperfusion in urethane-anesthetized rats.In group S,the anterior descending branch was only exposed but not ligated.The animals underwent 10 min ischemia of bilateral hind limbs starting from 20 min of occlusion of the anterior descending branch,followed by reperfusion in RLIP group.The changes in S-T segment were recorded at 30,60,120 and 180 min of reperfusion.At 180 min of reperfusion,the blood samples were taken from the jugular vein for determination of serum levels of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnⅠ).The animals were then sacrificed and hearts were removed for measurement of myocardial infarct size (IS) and adiponectin contents in myocardial tissues (by ELISA).Results Compared with group S,S-T segment was significantly elevated at each time point,myocardial IS,and serum cTnⅠ and CK-MB levels were increased,and adiponectin contents were decreased in I/R and RLIP groups.Compared with group I/R,elevation of S-T segment was significantly decreased at each time point,myocardial IS,and serum cTnⅠ and CK-MB levels were decreased,and adiponectin contents were increased in RLIP group.Conclusion The mechanism by which remote limb ischemic postconditioning reduces myocardial I/R injury is related to increased level of adiponectin in the myocardium of rats.
