Objective To investigate the antineoplastic action of 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine(CdR) in combination with arsenic trioxide on HL 60 myeloid leukemia cells.Methods HL 60 leukemia cells were incubated with CdR and arsenic trioxide and their antineoplastic action was determined by cells grouth curve,surface differentiation antigen spikes of subdiploid of cell cycle and superoxide dismutase etc.Results CdR combined with arsenic trioxide produced a greater growth inhibition andmove strong induced the differentiation of HL 60 cell than that in anyone of the two agents used independently.Conclution These results suggest that the arsenic trioxide may enhance the anti-leukemic action of CdR.

Objective To assess the cerebral protective effects of different doses of propofol during mild hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (32℃-35℃) .Methods Thirty consecutive ASA Ⅱ-Ⅲ patients aged 18-50 years, undergoing elective cardiac surgery under mild hypothermic CPB were randomly divided into 3 groups: in group Ⅰ and Ⅱ the patients were given a bolus of propofol 1 mg kg-1 at the beginning of CPB followed by propofol infusion at a rate of 3 mg ? kg -1? h -1 (group Ⅰ ) or 6 mg? kg-1 ?h-1 (group D ) till the end of CPB and in group Ⅲthe patients received midazolam infusion at 0.2 mg? kg-1 h-1 instead of propofol. Anesthesia was induced with intravenous midazolam 0.15 mgkg-1 ,fentanyl 5 ?g kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg? kg-1 .After tracheal intubation fentanyl 30-50 ?g kg-1 was infused during CPB and muscle relaxation was maintained with intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium. Surgery was performed with mild hypothermic CPB(32℃-35℃ ) .Arterial blood pH and PaCO2 were maintained within normal range and MAP was maintained at 50-80 mm Hg during CPB. Hematocrit was maintained at 25%-30% .Internal jugular vein(IJV) was cannulated and the catheter was advanced retrogradely till jugular bulb. Naso-pharyngeal temperature was monitored. Blood samples were taken simultaneously from artery and UV befor CPB (A) ,when mild hypothermia was being stably maintained(B) ,when the patients were rewarmed to 361 (C)and 30min(D),4-6 h(E)and 24 h(F) after discontinuation of CPB, for determination of cerebral oxygen metabolism and balance, cerebral lactate production (CLP), blood malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels. CLP was calculated from arterial-cerebral venous blood lactate difference /arterial blood lactate concentration. Lactate oxygen index (LOI) was calculated from arterial-cerebral venous blood lactate difference /arterial-cerebral venous blood O2 content difference.Results In group I (low propofol dose) 30% patients developed cerebral O2 inbalance during rewarming but blood MDA, CLP and LOI were decreased. In midazolam group (group Ⅲ) cerebral O2 balance was improved but there was no depression of blood MDA, CLP and LOI. In groupⅡ (high propofol dose) cerebral oxygenation was improved and blood MDA level, CLP and LOI were significantly decreased.Conclusion The study shows that propofol infusion at a rate of 6 mg?kg-1? h-1 during CPB can improve cerebral oxygenaton, inhibit blood MDA level, CLP and LOI, and plays a role in the cerebral protection during cardiac surgery with CPB, but more vasoconstrictors are needed.

Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a benign, uncommon disorder of unknown etiology, that usunlly appears as papules or nodules on the head and neck. Histopathologically, ALHE is a angioproliferating lesion which shows characteristically plump epithelioid or histiocytoid endothelial cells, accompanied by an inflammatory infiltrate that mainly consists of lymphocytes and eosinophils. We report a case of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophila associated with arteriovenous malformations in a 23-year-old man. In our patient, we observed arteriovenous malformation, changes which could have occurred by vascular repair due to a vascular malformation.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 0.75% ropivacaine versus 0.75% bupivicaine for combined spinal and epidural anesthesia(CSEA) for cesarean section. Methods Forty primiparae(ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ) scheduled for elective cesarean section were divided into two groups: ropivacaine group received 0.75% ropivacaine 1 .2-1 . 4ml(9-10. 5mg) for spinal anesthesia and bupivicaine group received same amount of 0.75% bupivicaine. During operation when spinal analgesia was inadequate, 1.6% lidocaine was supplemented via epidural catheter. Blood pressure , heart rate and SpO2 were monitored. Sensory block(pin prick), motor block(modified Bromage scale), quality of analgesia and relaxation of abdominal wall were assessed. Apgar score of the neonates and umbilical artery blood gas as well as side effects were recorded. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in age, height, body weight of the patients and duration of operation. The height of block was comparable between the two groups but the onset time was longer and duration of block was shorter in ropivacaine group. Analgesia and muscle relaxation were satisfactory and Apger score was 10 at 1 mm and 5mm in both groups. Blood gas values were within normal range in both groups. Motor block was weaker with ropivacaine than that with bupivacaine(P
