Objective To investigate the efficacy of centrally fixed eyeball for assessment of the depth of anesthesia in premature infants undergoing outpatient fundus examination. Methods Fifty eight premature infants undergoing examination of fundus of eyes were enrolled in this study. Their gestational age (from the first day of last menstruation period to birth) + after birth age (from birth to the day when examination of fundus of eyes was performed) = 44-64 weeks. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: Ⅰ group body movement (group M, n = 27) and Ⅱ group centrally fixed eyeball (group E, n = 31). Anesthesia was induced and maintained with isoflurane inhalation. The patients were breathing spontaneously. The eyelids were kept open with speculum after induction of anesthesia. The EC50 of sevoflurane concentration which could inhibit body movement or make eyeballs centrally fixed was determined by up-and-down sequential experiment. The initial isoflurane concentration was 3% in both groups. Each time the isoflurane concentration was increased/decreased by 0.5 %. 95 % confidence interval (CI) was calculated. The lowest SpO2, respiratory rate and coughing during maintenance of anesthesia were recorded. Results The EC50 of sevoflurane (95% CI) was 2.9% (2.2%-3.6%) in group M and 3.4%(2.6%-4.6%) in group E. Examination was successfully completed in all patients. No respiratory depression and coughing occurred during examination and no vomiting and coughing were observed during feeding at 1 h after recovery from anesthesia. No body movement occurred in 15 patients whose eyeballs were centrally fixed in group E. Conclusion Centrally fixed eyeball can be used as sign of appropriate depth of anesthesia for fundus examination in premature infants.

Objective To analyze hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection stage in single nucleic acid test(NAT)reactive blood donors.Methods Blood donor samples were screened routinely for HBV DNA by using transcription-mediated amplification(TMA) NAT and quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR).Then serum markers of HBV were also detected.The HBV infection stage was analyzed.Results Among the 225 single NAT reactive samples,78(34.67%) were identified to be reactive for HBV DNA by TMA NAT discrimination test and/or PCR test,of which 63(82.89%) were occult HBV infection(OBI),13(17.11%) were probably window period infection(pWP),and 2 cases could not be classified for infection stage.Among the OBI samples,49 samples(77.78%) were with HBV DNA concentration less than 20 IU/mL,whereas,there were only 4 samples(30.77%) in pWP samples.The 225 samples were classified into three groups according to the S/CO of NAT, including 1-<6 group,6-<10 group and 10-17 group, the confirmed HBV DNA positive rates of which were 13.11%,13.64% and 47.18%,and the positive rate of 10-17 group was higher than 1-<6 group and 6-<10 group(P<0.05).In all 63 OBI samples,there were 8(12.70%),3(4.76%) and 52(82.54%) samples were classified into S/CO 1-<6,6-<10 and 10-17,respectively.All of the 13 pWP samples were with NAT S/CO of 10-17.Conclusion Part of single NAT reactive blood donors could be with HBV infection,of which OBI might be popular than pWP, with very low concentration of HBV DNA.Deferral of single NAT reactive blood donors could reduce transfusion-transmitted HBV infection.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine on minimal induced dose of propofol and cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation.Methods A double-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted.Sixty patients who underwent elective laparoscopic surgery were randomly divided into the dexmedetomidine group (treatment group) and control group.Patients in treatment group were given dexmedetomidine at dose of 0.1 μg/kg · min for 10 min before anesthesia induction,and then infused with 0.4 μg/kg · h until the end.Sodium chloride injection was infused at the same rate in control group.After 10 minutes from the start of dexmedetomidine or sodium chloride injection,propofol was infused by 0.4 mg/kg · min.The dosage of propofol used was recorded when eyelash reflex disappearing,and BIS value in 40 to 60.Propofol was infusion at the same rate,and laryngoscope was incubated at 2 minutes after fentanyl and rocuronium were given.The alertness/sedation (OAA/S scores),mean arterial pressure (MAP),heart rate,pluse oxygen saturation (SpO2) and BIS values were recorded at baseline (before dexmedetomidine or sodium chloride injection infusion),5 and 10 minutes after dexmedetomidine or sodium chloride injection infusion,at the time of eyelash reflex disappearing,before endotracheal intubation,placing the laryngoscope,1,3 and 5 min after intubation.Results OAA/S scores and BIS values in the treatment group were significantly lower than that of control group at 5 minutes and 10 minutes after the dexmedetomidine or sodium chloride injection infusion(P ＜0.05).MAP in treatment group was higher than that of control group at the time of eyelash reflex disappearing,before endotracheal intubation,placing the laryngoscope,1,3 and 5 minutes after intubation (P ＜0.05).Heart rate in treatment group was lower than that of control group at 5 and 10 minutes after dexmedetomidine or sodium chloride injection infusion and before the endotracheal intubation(P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in terms of SpO2 between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).When patients consciousness disappeared and BIS values were in 40-60,the minimum induced dose of propofol was (88.00 ± 25.91) mg in treatment group and (117.33 ± 25.45) mg in control group.The dosage of propofol treatment group was obviously less than control group (t =4.423,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine reduces the minimum induced dose of propofol while maintaining more stable hemodynamic changes during anesthesia induction.However,there has no obvious inhibition effect on cardiovascular response to tracheal intubation.

According to the relevant requirements of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and relevant reports, this article briefly introduces the basic principles, research ideas, and precautions for the revision of the “characteristics” standards of Chinese medicinal materials and decoction pieces. In recent years, enterprises and social media reported that the characteristics of Chinese medicinal materials in the market did not fully comply with the characteristics specified in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Therefore, this article explored the variation in the characteristics of Chinese medicinal materials and decoction pieces and its main reasons, scientific and reasonable revision of the “characteristics” of Chinese medicinal materials and decoction pieces, the new methods for identifying properties, as well as the issues that need to be noted in revising the characteristics of Chinese medicinal materials and decoction pieces, which provided reference for the revision of the “characteristics” standards of Chinese medicinal materials and decoction pieces.

Objective To study the biomechanical mechanism of Essex-Lopresti injury, and provide biomechanical basis for diagnosis and treatment of Essex-Lopresti injury. Methods Twelve fresh frozen adult upper limbs were addressed. Firstly, 12 samples ("complete state group") were loaded 100 N of a compressive force lasting 30 seconds in pronation, supination and neutral position on the mechanical testing machine. Secondly, 12 specimens were randomly divided into 2 groups. In the group named resection of radial head, the radial head was removed and interosseous membrane (IOM)was intact. In the group named the section of interosseous membrane, IOM was cut off. Finally, the radial head were removed and IOM was cut off in all specimens. The group was named as resection of radial head and IOM. Each sample was tested according to the method as described. Results The forearm rotation or single excision of the IOM had no effect on radial longitudinal displacement. Simple radial head excision or resection of the IOM and the radial head increased the vertical displacement of the radius. The radial stiffness had a gradual decline in forearm supination, neutral position and pronation. Simple excision IOM has no effect on the radial stiffness. The radial stiffness had decreased under the condition of excision of radial head or resection of the IOM and the radial head. Conclusion These in vitro measurements validate that the radial head fracture with IOM injury may be important reason for complications of the Essex-Lopresti injury. Radial head fracture play a key role for Essex-Lopresti injury and the injury of IOM is secondary cause. IOM is responsible for maintaining the vertical stability of the forearm after radial head resection.

ObjectiveTo study the regulatory effect of Tripterygium wilfprdii polyglycoside (TWP) on the expression of EGFR and ErbB-2 induced arthritis rats.The effect of TWP on arthritis was also explored.MethodsAfter the model of CIA rats were established,the expression of EGFR and ErbB-2 in the synovium and articular cartilage were tested by immunohistochemical stain and real time PCR.ANOVA was used for statistical analysis.ResultsThe protein and mRNA expression of EGFR and ErbB-2 in the synovium (EGFR 0.268±0.059,ErbB-2 0.25±0.04,EGFR mRNA:14.2±0.55,ErbB-2 mRNA 23.46±3.64) and articular cartilage (EGFR 0.193±0.018,ErbB-2 0.217±0.033,EGFR mRNA:4.16±0.50,ErbB-2 mRNA 9.23±0.66) of the model group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.01).After being treated with TWP and MTX,the protein and mRNA expression of the EGFR and ErbB-2 decreased markedly (P＜0.01).Conclusion EGFR and ErbB-2 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of arthritis development.The molecular mechanism that TWP can treat synovitis and bone destruction of RA is related to the inhibition of EGFR and ErbB-2.

ObjectiveTostudythemolecularmechanismoflanthanumonblocking lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-mediated activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB)signaling in macrophages.MethodsThe RAW264.7 macrophages were cultured routinely and divided into 4 groups randomly:LaCl3 +LPS group,LPS group,LaCl3 group and control group.The nuclear translocation of p65 protein was detected by immunocytochemistry.Total,cytoplasmic and nuclear proteins were extracted respectively,and then the binding activity of p65 with the target gene was measured by ELISA.Western blot assays were also performed to detect the expression levels of the proteins,including nuclear p65,IκBα and IKK kinase,the phosphorylation status of IκBα and IKK kinase.ResultsLanthanum can block LPS-induced activation of p65 protein through various ways,such as inhibiting its nuclear translocation,reducing its expression in the nuclei and decreasing its binding activity with the target genes.Lanthanum inhibited the degradation of LPS-induced IκBα,but the phosphorylation of LPS-induced IKKβ can not be blocked by lanthanum,nor did the phosphorylation ability of p-IKKβ on IκBα.Conclusion Lanthanum inhibited the degradation of IκBα,nuclei translocation of p65 protein and its binding activity with the target genes,thereby inhibited LPS-induced NFκB activation,which might be one of the inhibition mechanisms of lanthanum on nuclear activation.
