Cytochemical methods were used to evaluate the changes of intracellular calcium, plasma membrane permeability and their relationship during ischemia and reflow in rat renal proximal tubule epithelia cells. In addition, the preventive effects of inosine and Rhizoma Ligustici Chuanxiong on ischemia and reperfusion cell injury were studied. The results showed that the preventive effects of inosine and Rhizoma Ligustici Chuanxiong were obvious. Redistribution and slight increase of calcium occurred during ischemic period in the proximal tubule cells. In this period the changes of plasma membrane permeability were gentle. Following the extention of reflow time, a large amount of calcium deposited in the cells and mitochondria. The plasma membrane became broken.

Objective The purpose of this study is to define the pollution level of CO2 pneumoperitoneum in operation room and its influence on the health of medical personnel,and put forward certain countermeasures.Methods This research consisted of four groups of experiments,and gradually proved that the use of pneumoperitoneum machine would lead to air pollution in the operation room,and the health of medical staff were influenced too.The four experiments were:the maximum CO2 gas leakage experiment;laparotomy and pneumoperitoneum surgery in the operating room CO2 gas concentration control experiment;CO2 gas concentration increase on the influence of the medical staff experiment; long-time pneumoperitoneum surgery operating room CO2 gas concentration change experiment.Results The maximum CO2gas leakage situation could cause the operation room CO2 gas concentration to increase(＞ l 000× 104); pneumoperitoneum machine in actual use process,could cause the increase of CO2 gas concentration in operation room; increase of CO2 gas concentration had an impact on the vital signs of the medical staff,the heart rate and blood pressure were statistically different before and after the operation; during pneumoperitoneum surgery for a long time,indoor CO2 gas concentration increased (＞1000× 10-6)and reduced quickly postoperation.Conclusions The use of C02 pneumoperitoneum machine in operation room influence the health of medical personnel.Effective protective measures dealing with gas pollution should be taken to reduce the chronic injury to medical staff.

Objective:To study the instant and short term effects of diagnostic ultrasound on ultrastructure and hydrogen peroxide cytochemistry of human villi. Methods: Fifteen healthy women with gestational ages of 6 to 8 weeks were divided into 4 groups. Group A( n =3),B( n =4),C( n =4) and D( n =4) were exposured to diagnostic ultrasound for 0,10,20 and 20 min respectively. In group A, B, and C, the villi were taken out immediately after ultrasound exposure and were studied. In group D, the villi were taken out 3 d after ultrasound exposure. Results: The results showed that there were changes only in group C. Enlargement of endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrial intracristal space were observed in syntrophoblast cells. In group A, B, and D, there were no evident abnormality. Conclusion: The conventional acoustic exposure of diagnostic ultrasound is safe for human villi.

AIM and METHODS: Electron cytochemical methods were used to study the changes of calcium and reactive oxygen species in rat kidney during ischemia and reperfusion period.RESULTS:By the end of 1h ischemia, intra-cellular calcium increased. There were no H 2O 2 generation at this time. In the early reperfusion period, large amount of H 2O 2 generated. At this time, there were no evident changes of intra-cellular calcium compare with 1h ischemia group. In the later reperfusion period, less H 2O 2 generated. Intra-cellular calcium increased continuously.CONCLUSION:Calcium and reactive oxygen species all participated in ischemia-reperfusion injury, but the time they participated and their effects were different.
