Objective To explore the administration of Dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil for sedation and analgesia of ICU patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage after operation.Methods A total of 60 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage treated with hematoma removal under craniotomy were selected from May 2013 to June 2015.The patients were randomly (random number) divided into the Dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil group (D + R, n =30), and Midazolam combined with remifentanil group (M + R, n =30).The blood pressure, respiration rate, oxygen saturation, heart rate, ICP (intracranial pressure), Ramsay sedation scores, and IL-1, and TNF-α levels were recorded after sedation and analgesia in ICU, and 6 h, 24 h, 48 h after operation (T0-T3).Results Compared with M +R group, the MAP, RR, HR, ICP, IL-1β, TNF-α, rate of reoperation for check bleeding, and mortality were significantly decreased in D + R group (P ＜ 0.05), and Ramsay sedation score was significantly increased at the same time (P ＜ 0.05) without excessive sedation and analgesia noticed.Conclusions Dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil exhibits significant benefit in many respects including control of great fluctuations of blood pressure and intracranial pressure after craniotomy, reduce the production and release of inflammatory mediators, reduce the occurrence of rebleeding after operation.It shows good controllability and safety, it is an optimal method producing sedation and analgesia in ICU patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage after operation.

To explore the velocity difference between specifications and categories of liquid with the same pressure infusion bag in order to widen the specification range of the liquid for pressure infusion. Pressure infu-sion experiments were performed with three specifications of normal saline of 100, 250 and 500 ml to compare the veloci-ties of different specifications of liquid, and with 500 ml normal saline, (5%, 10% and 50%) glucose injection, 5% glu-cose and sodium chloride injection, 5% sodium bicarbonate injection, 10% fructose injection, 706 plasma substitute, 20%mannitol injection and etc to make clear the velocities of different categories of liquid. With the same pressure, there were no significant differences between the velocities of three specifications of liquid, and between those of cate-gories of liquid with the same specification and concentration; the difference was significant between the same category of liquid with different concentrations, and the velocity showed a negative correlation with the concentration. The pressure infusion bag is compatible with 100, 250 and 500 ml liquid, and the velocity may be constant in case some specification of liquid is replaced by another one. The velocity has to be regulated in case the concentration or category of the liquid changes, when the pressure infusion is performed.

Objective To evaluate the effects of static magnetic fields (SMFs) of different intensity and exposure duration on the proliferation and apoptosis of human umbilical cord endothelial cells (HUVECs),and their release of nitric oxide (NO),6-keto-prostacyclin 1α (6-keto-PGF1α) and endothelin (ET-1).Methods Cultured HUVECs were exposed to a SMF at 5,22,86 or 135 mT for 8,12 or 24 hours.Their proliferation and apoptosis were monitored by flow cytometry (FCM).The medium was collected to test its NO content by optical density.ET-1 and 6-keto-PGF1α were measured by radioimmunization.Results ( 1 ) The proliferation of HUVECs increased when the cells were exposed to a SMF at 5 mT for 8 h,but a SMF at 135 mT for 12 h or 24 h inhibited the proliferation of HUVECs.(2)An SMF had no effect on apoptosis of HUVECs.(3)An SMF at 5 mT for 8 h increased the release of NO and 6-keto-PGF1 a,but the release of NO and 6-keto-PGF1 a decreased when the SMF intensity was 135 mT or the cells were exposed to an SMF for 12 h or 24 h.(4) An SMF at 5 mT or 22 mT for 8 h did not effect the release of ET-1.An SMF at 86 mT or 135 mT increased the release of ET-1.Compared with a control group,an SMF at 5 mT for 12 or 24 h did not affect the release of ET1,but at 22,80 or 135 mT,the release of ET-1 decreased significantly.Conclusions Exposure to a low intensity SMF for a short duration could improve the proliferation of HUVECs and increase the release of vasoactive factors,but if HUVECs are exposed to a strong SMF or exposed for a long duration,the proliferation and the release of vasoactive factors is decreased.

Objective To investigate the influence of gestational vitamin A(VA) deficiency on lipid synthesis in offspring liver tissue by using the rat model of gestational vitamin A deficiency.Methods The rat model of gestational VA deficiency was established and divided into the normal AV,VA deficiency and VA deficiency and supplement (VAD) groups.The offspring blood lipid levels were detected.The mRNA expression changes of lipid synthesis molecule ACC1,FAS and SREBP1 in liver were detected;the lipid droplet deposition situation after HE staining in offspring liver tissue section was observed.Results The HDL-C level of the VAD group was significantly lower than that of the VA normal group(VAN group and VAS group,P＜0.05),and the difference between the VAN group and VAS group had no statistical difference(P＞0.05).The TG level had statistically significant difference among the three groups(P＜0.05).The ACC1,FAS and SREBP1 mRNA expression levels in the VAD group were significantly increased.The liver in the VAD group appeared more lipid droplet deposit with partial lipid droplet vacuoles in cytoplasm;while the liver cells in the VAS and VAN groups showed the regular arrangement without obvious lipid droplet deposit.Conclusion Gestational VA deficiency may induce the abnormal activation of liver lipid synthesis pathway in rat offspring and causes lipid metabolic disturbance.

Objective To evaluate desmopressin stimulated inferior petrosal sinus sampling in diagnosing Cushing′s disease.Methods Sixteen ACTH-dependent Cushing′s disease patients underwent bilateral desmopressin stimulated inferior petrosal sinus ( IPS ) sampling because of negative or equivocal magnetic resonance imaging.Cortisol response to high-dose dexamethasone suppression test was also evaluated.ACTH sampling was taken from a peripheral vein and bilateral IPS before and both 5 and 10 min after injection of desmopressin.Diagnosis was based on the ratio of ACTH level in between IPS to peripheral vein by desmopressin test.Diagnosis was confirmed after surgery.Results High-dose dexamethasone suppression test showed suppressible in 9 of 16 patients with Cushing′s disease.An IPS gradient ＞2 was found in 14 of the 16 cases (87.5％ )with Cushing′s disease after desmopressin injection,while before injection the respective figure was 12 of 16 (75.0％).No severe adverse effects were observed during or after the procedure.Conclusion Desmopressin test during bilateral IPS sampling is a safe and effective diagnostic procedure in Cushing′s disease.
