Objective To investigate the effects of melatonin (MT) on rats with acute paraquat (PQ) poisoning. Method Fifty-four Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups (each group 18 rats) and given the following treatment: intragastric injection of PQ at 50 mg/kg (PQ); intragastric injection of paraquat followed by intraperitoneal injection of MT at 10mg/kg once a day (MT); intragastric injection of normal saline (Control). Serum assays for malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glu tathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities were determined on the 1st, 3rd and 7th day post treatment. Clinical manifestations of poisoning and pathological changes in the lungs were also observed. Results Serum MDA levels were significantly increased (P < 0.01), and SOD and GSH-Px activities significantly decreased (P < 0.05) in the PQ group compared to the control group. Serum MDA levels were significantly decreased, and serum SOD and GSH-Px activities increased in MT group compared to the PQ group (P < 0.05). Clinical manifestations of intoxication and pathological lung changes were also ameliorated in poisoned rats treated with MT. Condutions Administration of MT alleviates clinical manifestations of acute paraquat poisoning in rats by Limiting the damage from lipid peroxidation.

Objective To investigate whether the median(50%)effective effect-concentration(EC50)of propofol inducing loss of consciousness (LOC) varies. Methods 56 patients undergoing gastroscopy under general anaesthesia were enrolled on the study. Anaesthesia was conducted with a target-controlled infusion(TCI) of propofol. The initial target effect-site propofol concentration (Ceprop) was 5.00 μg/mL and was adjusted stepwise by 0.50μg/mL by an up-down sequential method to reach no-movement. Results Propofol EC50 to induce no-movement was higher in patients with anxiety than those without anxiety(6.46μg/mL vs. 5.75μg/mL,P<0.05). Conclusions During general anaesthesia ,patients with anxiety had a higher propofol EC50 for no-movement compared with those without anxiety. Differences in preoperative anxiety levels may reduce anaesthetic effects.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of acetamide at different doses on the expression of inhibitory amino acids (gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA) and excitatory amino acid (glutamate, Glu) in the cerebral cortex of rats with acute tetramine (TET) poisoning.
METHODSEighty Sprague-Dawley rats (SPF) were randomly divided into five groups, with 16 rats in each group: saline control group, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) control group, TET exposure group, high-dose (2.8 g/kg/d) acetamide treatment group, and super-high-dose (5.6 g/kg/d) acetamide treatment group. Rats in the exposure group and treatment groups were exposed to TET by intragastric administration after fasting, and were then intramuscularly injected with saline or different doses of acetamide in the following 5 days. The cortex of the temporal lobe was collected at 3 h, 12 h, 48 h, or 7 d after treatment. The expression levels of GABA and Glu in the cortex of the temporal lobe were determined by average optical density (OD) values in immunohistochemistry.
RESULTS1) Expression of GABA: The OD value of GABA in TET exposure group started to increase at 12 h after treatment, reached the peak at 48 h, and decreased to the normal level at 7 d. In the high-dose acetamide treatment group, the increase in OD at 12 h was not so significant as that in the TET exposure group, OD value decreased to the normal level at 48 h and was lower than that in the exposure group, and the changes were more like those in the control groups. In the super-high-dose acetamide treatment group, OD value began to increase significantly at 3 h and was significantly higher than that in the TET exposure group (P < 0.01), it reached the peak at 12 h, and was restored to the normal value at 48 h. 2) Expression of Glu: The OD value of Glu in TET exposure group at 3 h after treatment was significantly lower than those in the two control groups, it increased gradually from 12 h to 48 h, and recovered to the normal level at the 7th d. The changes in the high-dose acetamide treatment group were similar to those in the TET exposure group, but became more like those in the control groups after 48 h; the OD value in super-high-dose acetamide treatment group was significantly higher than that in the TET exposure group at 3 h after treatment (P < 0.01), while no significant difference was found at 12 h; it was significantly lower than those of all other groups at 48 h and 7 d (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSTreatment with high dose of acetamide has some curative effect on TET poisoning-induced central nervous lesion, while the effect of super-high-dose acetamide on expression of neurotransmitters is too complex to evaluate.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of different doses of acetamide on the histopathology in the cerebral cortex of rats with tetramine (TET) poisoning and to provide a basis for the treatment of fluoroacetamide poisoning with acetamide.
METHODSEighty clean Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups: saline control group,dimethylsulfoxide water solution control group,TET poisoning group, acetamide (2.88 g/kg/d) treatment group, and acetamide (5.68 g/kg/d) treatment group, with 16 rats in each group. Rats in the poisoning group and treatment groups were poisoned with TET by intragastric administration after fasting; then, saline was injected intramuscularly into rats of the poisoning group, and different doses of acetamide were injected intramuscularly into rats of treatment groups; the course of treatment was 5 d. At 3 h, 12 h, 48 h, and 7 d after treatment, the cerebral cortex was harvested from rats in each group, and the histopathological changes in the cerebral cortex were evaluated under light and electron microscopes.
RESULTSThe light microscopy showed that the TET poisoning group had hypoxia changes in the cerebral cortex, which worsened over time; the treatment groups had reduced hypoxia changes, and the acetamide (2.88 g/kg/d) treatment group had more reduction than the acetamide (5.68 g/kg/d) treatment group. The electron microscopy showed that the apoptosis of neuronal cells were the main pathological changes in the TET poisoning group; the treatment groups had reduced apoptotic changes, and the acetamide (2.88 g/kg/d) treatment group had more reduction than the acetamide (5.68 g/kg/d) treatment group.
CONCLUSIONNo pathological changes associated with the synergistic toxic effect of acetamide and TET are found in the cerebral cortex. Acetamide (2.88 g/kg/d) could reduce central nervous lesions, but the efficacy is not improved after increasing the dose. For patients who cannot be identified with TET or fluoroacetamide poisoning, acetamide could be considered for treatment.
