ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of low central venous pressure (LCVP) in the operation of major hepatic resection.MethodsFourty-eight patients underwent major hepatic resection were randomized into two groups: LCVP and control group.In the LCVP group,CVP was maintained ≤5 cm H2O during the hepatic resection and then returned to normal after resection.In the control group,CVP was maintained normal between 6 -12 cm H20.The duration of hepatectomy,volume of blood loss,volume of blood transfused and renal function were compared between the two groups.ResultsFor the LCVP and control group,the time for hepatectomy was (45 ± 8 ) and ( 35 ± 5 ) min,respectively; the volumes of blood loss were ( 850 ± 160) and (436 ±280)ml,respectively; the blood loss during operation was (490 ± 130) and (270 ± 105 ) ml respectively.The differences were statistically significant (t values were 15.53,7.69 and 17.89 separately,P ＜0.05 ).No significant difference in the renal function was observed before and after the operation ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Using LCVP technique during liver resection significantly reduced the operation time,blood loss and blood infusion.And there wa.s no obvious adverse effect on renal function.

Hypertriglyceridemia, and the ectopic deposition of triglycerides, are the risk factors for insulin resistance. To clarify the mechanism of regulations in triglyceride metabolism is an approach to the elucidation of pathogenesis and effective treatment of insulin resistance-related diseases.

Resistance is one of the most important reasons that restrict the clinical application of most chemotherapeutic medicines. Docetaxel is a very widely applicated antitumor medicine. Most of the researches on the mechanism of resistance against docetaxel focused on the drug transporters, changes in drug metabolism and pathway alteration of cell cycle and apoptnsis. The mechanism of docetaxel resistance and the predictive data based on clinical research to docetaxel therapy in cancer treatment were reviewed.

Expression of apelin mRNA in the isolated mouse adipocytes was confirmed by Northern blot. The level of apelin mRNA increased during stage of differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. Insulin up-regulated the apelin expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, suggesting that apelin expression in adipocyte may correlate with obesity, insulin resistance and hypertension.

Objective To explore the value of blood lipid and CA125 in identification diagnosis between lung cancer and pulmo‐nary tuberculosis .Methods The blood lipid and serum CA125 levels in 131 patients with lung cancer( Ⅰ - Ⅳ stage) ,53 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and 60 normal controls were determined by biochemstry ,immunoturbidimetry and electrochemilumi‐nescence immunoassay and was done compared study .Results The serum TC and HDL‐C level in 131 patients with lung cancer were decreased with severity and were lower than in those of in 53 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis(TC :P< 0 .05 ,< 0 .05 ,<0 .01 and < 0 .001 respectively ;HDL‐C :P< 0 .05 ,< 0 .05 ,< 0 .01 and < 0 .01 respectively) .The serum LDL‐C level was no differ‐ences between lung cancer( Ⅰ - Ⅲ stage) and in 53 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis(P> 0 .05) only the lung cancer( Ⅳ stage) was a little increased(P< 0 .05) .The serum TG and ApoB/ApoA1 ratio levels in 131 patients with lung cancer( Ⅰ - Ⅳ stage) were increased with severity and were significantly higher than in those of 53 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TG :P < 0 .05 ,< 0 .05 ,< 0 .01 and < 0 .01 respectively ;ApoB/ApoA1 :P< 0 .05 ,< 0 .05 ,< 0 .01 and < 0 .01 respectively) .The level of CA125 in 131 patients with lung cancer was significantly higher than in those 53 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis(P< 0 .001) .Conclusion The serum TC and HDL‐C ,TG ,ApoB/ApoA1 ratio and CA125 levels may be the indexs of identification diagnosis between lung cancer and pulmonary tuberculosis .

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of extended-spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs) and the resistance in Escherichia coli isolates from biliary tract and abdominal cavity.METHODS ESBLs-producers were detected by CLSI Phenotypic Confirmatory Test and susceptibilities were tested by agar dilution method.RESULTS 50.1% Of isolates were ESBLs producers in those isolates.ESBLs producers were highly resistant to ampicillin,cefazolin,cefuroxime,fluoroquinolones,and cefotaxime.The resistant rate to ceftazidime,cefepime,cefoperazone-sulbactam,amikacin,and cefmetazole was less than 40%.None was resistant to meropenem in ESBLs producers.In non-ESBLs producers the resistant rate to ampicillin,cefazolin,cefuroxime,fluoroquinolones was more than 40% and most were susceptible to other antimicrobial agents.The resistant rate to ampicillin,cefazolin,cefuroxime,and ciprofloxacin was significantly higher in ESBLs producers than non-ESBLs producers.CONCLUSIONS With resistance to most of antimicrobial agents,ESBLs-producers were highly prevalent in E.coli isolates from biliary tract and abdominal cavity,so more attention should be paid to survey and detect those strains.

Objective To investigate the changes of CD11b on neutrophils during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Methods 12 patients undergoing coronary bypass grafts under CPB were studied. Blood samples were obtained from the coronary (coronary sinus) and systemic circulation (central venous and CPB machine), respectively. Samples obtained from coronary and systemic circulation were taken before the beginning of CPB, during CPB and after cardiac reperfusion. Neutrophil CD11b expression and serum cTnI concentration were measured. Results (1)Expression of CD11b increased gradually in systemic circulation during CPB and after reperfusion (P
