Objective To determine effect of endurance training on the expression of fatty acid translocase FAT/ CD36 in skeletal muscle of rats and the correlation between the expression and insulin sensitivity index (ISI). Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to two groups:training group(T,n=13) and control group (C, n=10). Rats in group T were trained on treadmill six days a week for 7 weeks. Fat pads around testes and kidneys were weighted for calculating the percentage of fat pads vs body weight. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG),nonesterified fatty acids(NEFA) and fasting insulin(FINS) were measured. Western blot was used to detect FAT/ CD36 protein expression in quadriceps homogenate. The relation of FAT/CD36 expression to the ISI was analyzed. Results Markedly lower body weight,percentage of fat pads, TC,NEFA, and FINS were seen in group T after 7-week endurance training comparing to that in group C(P<0.01 ,P<0.01 ,P<0.01 ,P<0.05,and P<0.05,respectively). The FAT/CD36 protein expression and ISI were significantly higher in group T than in group C(P<0.01and P<0.05). A significant correlation between FAT/CD36 and ISI were found in group T(r=0.823,P<0.01 ),nut not in group C. Conclusion Seven-week endurance training improved insulin sensitivity and up-regulated the expression of FAT/CD36 for adapting the requirement of fatty acid transportation in skeletal muscle induced by enhanced lipid catabolism after endurance exercise.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of different doses of cisatracurium on the monitoring of motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) in the patients undergoing intracranial aneurysm clipping.Methods:Eighty patients of both sexes, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index <30 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠor Ⅱ, with Hunt-Hess grade 0-Ⅱ, undergoing intracranial aneurysm clipping under general anesthesia, were divided into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: conventional group (group R) and different doses of cis-atracurium groups (Cis 1-3 groups). After anesthesia induction, muscle relaxation was monitored, and train-of-four (TOF) stimulation (frequency 2 Hz, wave width 0.2 ms, interval 15 s) was applied to the ulnar nerve of forearm, and the TOF ratio was recorded as the baseline value (T 1). MEPs were assessed with a nerve electrophysiology monitor after induction of anesthesia.In Cis 1-3 groups, cis-atracurium 0.625, 0.833 and 1.000 μg·kg -1·min -1 were intravenously infused, while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group R when TOF ratio returned to the baseline value and MEPs could be effectively elicited.At T 1, immediately after dural incision (T 2), immediately after aneurysm occlusion (T 3) and immediately after dural closure (T 4), the TOF ratio, effective elicitation of intraoperative MEPs, and occurrence of intraoperative cardiovascular events, recovery of spontaneous breathing and body movement were recorded. Results:Compared with group R, no significant change was found in TOF ratio at each time point in group Cis 1 ( P>0.05), and TOF ratio was significantly decreased at T 2-4 in group Cis 2 and at T 2-4 in group Cis 3 ( P<0.05). Compared with group Cis 1, TOF ratio was significantly decreased at T 3, 4 in group Cis 2 and at T 2-4 in group Cis 3 ( P<0.05). The effective elicitation rate of MEPs was 100% in the four groups.There was no significant difference in the incidence of intraoperative cardiovascular events, recovery of spontaneous breathing and body movement among the four groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Continuous intravenous infusion of cis-atracurium 0.833-1.000 μg·kg -1·min -1 can maintain a certain degree of muscle relaxation without affecting MEP monitoring in the patients undergoing intracranial aneurysm clipping.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of High-Sensitive Troponin T(hs-TnT)in acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Methods One hundred and sixty nine patients with serum hs-TnT concentration≥0.014 μg/L in early hospitalization were enrolled in this study.The ROC curve was used to compare the concentra-tion of hs-TnT with four heart enzyme(CK,CK-MB,LDH,AST)on the diagnostic efficacy to AMI. The differ-ence of hs-TnT in different clinical data groups were investigated using Mann-Whitney U rank test.Then the correla-tion between hs-TnT and Gensini score of Coronary angiography was investigated using the Spearman rank correla-tion test.Results The concentration of hs-TnT in patients with chest pain was significantly higher than that in non-AMI group(P<0.05).The AUC of each ROC curve was hs-TnT(0.806)>CK-MB(0.792)>CK(0.780)>AST (0.704)> LDH(0.684). The optimal diagnostic point of hs-TnT was 0.152 ug/L(sensitivity 0.659,specificity 0.894,Yuden index 0.553).There was a positive correlation between hs-TnT and Gensini scores in men,age>65 years old and the chest tightness group(P < 0.05). Conclusion The hs-TnT is better than four heart enzyme in early diagnosis of AMI and benefit early treatment of AMI.
