Objective To explore the feasibility of the mixed- or single-application of etomidate and propofol during modified electroconvulsive therapy (MECT). Methods Ninety hospitalized schizophrenics undergoing MECT were randomly assigned to 3 groups which were respectively anesthetized with mixed liquor application of etomidate and propofol (group E-P), etomidate (E) or propofol (P). Charge delivered (CD), EEG seizure duration (ESD), postictal suppression index (PSI), seizure energy index (SEI) and seizure generalization index (SGI) were recorded. Mental status and memory levels were assessed with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS) before and after treatment. The adverse reactions were recorded. All data were analyzed with the software SPSS12.0. Results The ESD, PSI, SEI, SGI and WMS scores, and the minus score of PANSS were significantly higher (P < 0.05) and CD was lower (P < 0.05) in group E-P than those in group P. No significant alteration between group E-P and group E (P > 0.05). The adverse reactions such as nausea/vomiting and secretion increase in group E-P were lower than those in group E (P < 0.05). The injection pain of group E-P was lower than that of group P (P<0.05). Conclusion The mixed liquor of etomidate and propofol has an advantage over the single-application of the two drugs during MECT.

Objective To investigate the clinical and radiologic features of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) associated with preeclampsia-eclampsia.Methods Twenty-one cases of PRES associated with preeclampsia-eclampsia were retrospectively studied on some aspects of clinical and radiologic features.Results The most common clinical presentations were seizures( 18 cases ),headache (16 cases),altered mentation (15 cases) and vision change (12 cases). Vasogenic edema lesions distributed in the parietal or occipital lobe (20 cases),the frontal lobes (14 cases),temporal lobes ( 11 cases), and basal ganglia (11 cases). The splenium involvement occurred in 4 cases,cerebellar hemispheres and brain stem involvement was prcscnted in 3 cases and 1 case separately. Three major patterns of PRES included dominant parietal-occipital (7 cases),the holohemispheric watershed (7 cases),and superior frontal sulcal (6 cases).Partial and asymmetric expression of PRES only occurred in 1 case.Conclusions The clinical features of PRES associated with preeclampsia-eclampsia are typical.Except the parietal or occipital lobe,involvement of the frontal lobe,temporal lobe and basal ganglia is common,followed by the occasional presence of the splenium,cerebellar hemispheres and brain stem.Three primary PRES patterns are noted,occasional with partial and asymmetric expression of PRES. Awareness of these typical and variable characteristics is important to recognize the PRES ncurotoxicity morc accurately when PRES present.

Objective To study the protein expression levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)and their inhibitors in bone tissues of rat femoral head and to explore the relationship between necrosis of femoral head and glucocorticoid.Methods Twenty healthy adult SD rats were randomly divided into glucocorticoid group and control group,with 10 rats in each.Glucocorticoid group was treated with intramuscular injection of hydrocortisone twice a week.The control group received normal saline of the same volume.Four weeks later,bone tissues of left femoral head were collected from each group of rats for HE determination of femoral head necrosis.The expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1 ), matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2 ), tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1 ),and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2 )at mRNA and protein levels were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot techniques,respectively.Results The expressions of MMP-1 and MMP-2 at mRNA and protein levels were higher in glucocorticoid group than those in the control group. However,TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 gene and protein expression levels were lower in glucocorticoid group (all P<0.05). Conclusion The expressions of MMPs in bone tissues of rat femoral head in early necrosis were increased,but their inhibitors had decreased expressions. We can draw the conclusion that glucocorticoid-induced necrosis of femoral head may be related to its regulation of the expression levels of MMPs and their related inhibitors.
