The technique of transcervical chorionic villus sampling (TCVS) was studied in 155 cases for selected abortion in the first trimester of pregnancy, and 3 kinds of suction tube were compared. The ultrasonic mothod for the aspiration of chorionie villus sampling is more effective than the blind aspiration, giving a success rate of 99%. The modified suction tube with a stainless steel wire along-side as a supporter is simpler than the Portex's tube, giving a oneshot success rate of 85%. This shows that the TCVS is more satisfactory if the embryo is implanted into the posterior wall of the uterus. With the B-mode scanner, it gives the highest one-shot success rate and the amount of the obtained tissue is the greatest in the 7th and 8th weeks of gestation. Twenty cases were followed up for 3 to 7 days after the procedure before selective abortion. No complications occurred during and after the TCVS, indicating that this technique ia simple, safe and reliable.

Mother-Fetus ABO blood group incompatibility is one of the most common causes of hemolytic disease of newborns in China. To identify the blood group of the fetus in case of suspected mother-fetus blood group incompatibility in the first trimester of pregnancy, the author determined blood group substance (BGS) in 40 chorionic villi samples taken by the absorption-elution procedure during 6 to 12 weeks of gestation, with a simultaneous parental blood group determination as control. The BGS detected in those specimens were all in accordance with those of the blood groups of their coriesponding parents. Among the 40 samples of chorionic villi, 20 were redetermined, and the results were the same. This demonstrates the feasibility of the procedure to identify the fetal blood groups by the determination of BGS in the chorionic villi by transcervical aspiration. The study presents, apparently, a new and simple diagnostic method for detecting mother-fetus blood incompatibility in early pregnancy, thas giviing a prospectively preventive study on those types of blood group incompatibility.

AIM: To investigate the effect of prostanoid DP receptors (DPR) on sleep-wake regulation in mice. METHODS: Under pentobarbital anesthesia, mice were chronically implanted with electroencephalogram (EEG) and electromyogram (EMG) electrodes for polysomnographic recordings. The spontaneous sleep-wake cycles were monitored continuously by EEG/EMG recording system for 24 h beginning at 800 p.m. and analyzed by SLEEPSIGN software in DPR knock out (KO) and wild type (WT) mice. RESULTS: DPR-KO mice exhibited a similar circadian rhythm of sleep-wake cycles to WT mice. The amounts of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep or non-REM (NREM) sleep during both the light and dark periods were identical between the DPR-KO and WT mice. Whereas, an increase in the episode number of wakefulness and a shortage in the duration of NREM sleep were found in DPR-KO mice during the light period compared with WT mice. Moreover, DPR-KO mice showed lower activity in delta-wave component in NREM sleep and higher activity in theta-wave component in REM sleep than WT mice. CONCLUSION: DPR plays a crucial role in mediating the prostaglandin D2-induced sleep. Deficiency of DPR results in the low intensity and fragmented diurnal NREM sleep and the high vigilance REM sleep, with the normal circadian rhythm of sleep in mice.

Objective To explore the effects of cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN55,212-2 preconditioning on spinal cord ischemia reperfusion injury in rats.Methods A total of 32 male Sprague-Dawley rats was randomly divided into four groups (n =8):sham group,control group,dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) group which was given intraperitoneally DMSO 0.3 ml 30 min before ischemia reperfusion,and WIN group which was given intraperitoneally WIN55,212-2 1 mg/kg 30 min before ischemia reperfusion.Each rat was neurologically assessed at 24 h and 48 h after reperfusion by Tarlov scale,and the number of normal motor neurons at anterior horn of the spinal cord was recorded.Res uits The Tarlov scale of WIN group was significantly higher than that control and DMSO groups (P ＜ 0.05).There were more normal motor neurons at anterior horn of the spinal cord in WIN group than those in control and DMSO groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN55,212-2 preconditioning might attenuate spinal cord ischemia reperfusion injury.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of stroke volume variation(SVV)in blood volume monitoring during induction in patients undergo?ing coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG). Methods Thirty ASAⅡorⅢpatients,aged 53?74 year,BMI 21?27,NYHA classⅡorⅢ,scheduled for CABG were enrolled in this study. MAP,HR,CVP,SVV,cardiac output(CO),cardiac index(CI),stroke volume index(SVI)and systemic vascular resistance index(SVRI)were continuously measured by Vigileo/FloTrac system and recorded simultaneously at the following time points:T1(baseline level)and T2(after induction and before intubation). Calculate the changes of SVV,CVP and CI(△SVV、△CVP and△CI). Pa?tients whose△CI≥15%were defined as the responders to the insufficiency of blood volume. The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve for SVV and CVP were plotted,and the area under the curve were calculated. Results Compared with T1,significant decrease in CO,CI and SVI was observed at T2 . Meanwhile,SVV increased from 8%±5%to 17%±12%(P=0.012). Twenty?four patients were responders to intravascular volume insufficiency due to induction. SVV were significantly higher in responders than in non?responders(20%±13%vs 9%±4%,P=0.036). A threshold SVV value of 10.5%allowed discrimination between responders and non?responders to blood volume insufficiency,with a sensitivity of 75%and a specificity of 80%. The area under the curve for SVV was 0.875,and the 95%confidence interval was 0.689 to 1.000. Conclusion SVV exhibited reliable sensitivity and specificity in monitoring blood volume changes during induction in patients undergoing CABG.
