1.Effects of epidural block anesthesia assisted sevoflurane for cesarean section on Apgar scores
Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2013;12(4):294-295
To explore the feasibility of sevoflurane used in obstetric anesthesia and examine its effects on neonatal Apgar scores.A total of 60 cases of term primipara were assigned into epidural anesthesia assisted sevoflurane inhalation group (experimental group,n =30) and epidural anesthesia group (control group,n =30).In the experimental group after skin incision,the patients could not tolerate the anesthesia mask inhalation of sevoflurane.And the control group received no adjuvant drug.The maternal inhalation of sevoflurane to delivery of fetus after 1 min,5 min,10 min Apgar scores were analyzed.And the inhalation of sevoflurane to fetal childbirth duration were 4-10 min in two groups.The intergroup difference of newborn Apgar scores had no statistical significance (P > 0.05).Epidural anesthesia assisted sevoflurane inhalation for cesarean section had no significant effect on neonatal Apgar scores.

BACKGROUND: Much research focuses on the link between β-amyloid peptide and neuron death, but there is little work about white matter alterations in the Alzheimer's disease.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the anterior commissure pathological alteration in the APP/PS1 transgenic mice which model brain amyloidosis of Alzheimer's disease.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A grouping observational study based on the histology was performed in the Department of Neurology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology between September 2007 and September 2008.MATERIALS: Female transgenic APP/PS1 mice [Thy1 APP751 SL (Swedish mutation KM670/671NL, London mutation V7171 introduced in human sequence APP751) × human mutation gene PS1 M146L], control animals were amyloid-deposit free female PS1 mice. A total of 28 mice were divided into young group (2 months, 8 APP/PS1, 7 PS1) and old group (24 months, 6 APP/PS1, 7 PS1).METHODS: The slides of brain tissue were stained with Congo red and antibody against amyloid beta (4G8) to detect brain amyloidosis in Alzheimer's disease transgenic model. Myelin was stained with gold chloride and axon was stained with anti-neurofilament M antibody. The anterior commissure axonal density and myelination were quantitatively analyzed with the relative optical density value of staining with densitometry.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①The staining of intracellular and extracellular amyloid beta; ②the average area of anterior commissure in the coronal brain tissue sections; ④the relative optical density value of myelin and axon staining in the anterior commissure.RESULTS: A lot of Congo red positive amyloid beta plaques were observed in the cortex, hippocampus, thalamus, and anterior commissure of aged APP/PS1 mice, while intracellular amyloid beta was only present in the cortex of young APP/PS1 mice. A prominent increase in the surface area of the anterior commissure was observed in aged PS1 mice compared with young PS1 mice and aged APP/PS1 mice. The neurofilament staining remarkably decreased, both in aged APP/PS1 and aged PS1 mice; an increase trend of myelination in the anterior commissure was observed both the forementioned groups. Different phenotype analysis demonstrated that axonal density and myelination was comparative in the young APP/PS1 and young PS1 mice; axonal density of aged APP/PS1 mice decreased remarkably compared with aged PS1 control mice, while myelination of aged APP/PS1 mice had no significant difference with aged PS1 mice.CONCLUSION: There exists an axon loss in the anterior commissure in the aged APP/PS1 mice with a complete myelin sheath. The amyloid beta shows a direct toxicity on the axon.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of ginger-partitioned moxibustion at Zhiyang (GV9) in treating stomachache due to deficient cold.MethodEligible subjects with stomachache due to deficient cold were randomized into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group was intervened by ginger-partitioned moxibustion at Zhiyang, while the control group was by conventional acupuncture treatment. The clinical efficacies were then observed.ResultThe total effective rate was 93.3% in the treatment group versus 73.3% in the control group, and the total effective rate of the treatment groupwas significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionGinger-partitioned moxibustion can produce a better therapeutic efficacy in treating stomachache due to deficient cold than conventional acupuncture.

Objective To investigate the infection status and distribution characteristic of Helicobacter pylori (Hp)in different groups of population in Yangzhou.Methods 2 917 individuals from outpatients,hospitalized patients,and physical examination pop-ulation were recruited in the study.Serum samples from the subjects were rapidly detected using Helicobacter pylori urease antibody detection kits(Colloidal Gold method).The results were statistically analyzed.Results The totally Hp-detection rate of the 2 917 individuals was 32.9% (959/2 917).The Hp-detection rates of outpatients,hospitalized patients,and physical examination popula-tion were 33.1%,34.5% and 30.0% respectively.There were no significant difference in the positive rates between the male and female individuals(P >0.05).Overall,The Hp-positive rates increased with age.The minors(juveniles and children)had the lowest Hp-positive rate 16.0%(285/1 529);The Hp-positive rate of young adults was 34.0%(221/650),which was at the middle;elderly group had the highest Hp-positive rate 61.38%(453/758).59.8% of the patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal diseases were Hp positive.Among which,patients with peptic ulcer(74.4%)and gastric cancer(70.6%)have the highest detection rates.Some pa-tients with blood diseases,cardiovascular disease and some other diseases were also found with high Hp-detection rates.Conclusion The distribution of the Hp infection in population is positively correlated with age,but not with gender.Gastrointestinal diseases, especially peptic ulcers and gastric cancer,have high Hp infection rates,the relationships of Hp infections with some other diseases cannot be ignored and need to be further explored.
