Objective To study the effect of propofol on vascular reactivity and plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) in septic shock.Methods Forty male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 10 in each group) : group Ⅰ control; group Ⅱ septic shock; group Ⅲ septic shock + propofol and group Ⅳ septic shock + melatonin. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital 40 mg?kg-1. The femoral artery and vein were connulated for MAP monitoring and drug administration. The animals were breathing spontaneously. Septic shock was induced by intravenous LPS 15 mg?kg-1 . In group Ⅲ a bolus of propofol 10 mg?kg-1 was given i.v. at 1 h after intravenous LPS followed by intravenous propofol infusion at 10 mg?kg-1?h-1. In group Ⅳ melatonin 10 mg was given intraperitoneally at 1h after LPS i.v. . Six hours after LPS administration 4 doses of phenylephrine (PE) 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5 ?g?kg-1 were given i.v. in succession. The next dose was given when MAP returned to the baseline level after previous PE. The percent change in MAP after each dose was recorded. Blood samples were taken at 6 h after LPS administration for determination of plasma MDA and NO concentrations. After the in vivo experiment the animals were sacrificed and thoracic aortas were removed and cut into segments of 3 mm in length which were bathed in Krebs buffer aerated with 95% O2 and 5% CO2 at 37℃. The aortic rings were stretched to a resting tension of 2.0 g. The segments were then exposed to increasing concentrations of PE (from 1 nmol?L-1 to 30 ?mol?L-1). The dose-response curves were obtained. Emax and EC50 were calculated. Results The percent increase in MAP induced by PE was significantly reduced by septic shock (groupⅡ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ) as compared with control group (Ⅰ), but was significantly larger in propofol and melatonin groups (Ⅲ,Ⅳ) than in group Ⅱ. In the in vitro experiment the maximum response to PE and EC50 were significantly reduced in rats with septic shock as compared with rats in control group (P

The realization of symptom measurement of the traditional Chinese medicine is a must for the development of traditional Chinese medicine, which obtained a common acceptation academically. This article believed the methods for realizing symptom measurement are the combination of both TCM two basic theories of "the wholism conception" and "treatment based on syndrome differentiation" and modern scientific measures and methods. Meanwhile, the western medicine should be simply excluded, other than simply compare a TCM syndrome to a physiological and biochemical indicator of western medicine.

Academe hash't got the same view about science attribute of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)up to now.This article demonstrates the scientific attribute of the traditional Chinese medicine from the nature of science,the seientific attribute of medical science and the relationship between the traditional Chinese medicine and medical science.TCM needs development.In order to develop the traditional Chinese medicine quickly,on the basis of inheriting tradition,we should make the best use of modem scientific technology.Not simply copy the theories and methods of western medicine but using the scientific measurement to build up the measurement of TCM symptoms,the relationship between symptoms and the change of the body,explore the process of physiology and pathology,and combine with western medicine to develop a mature science-medical science.

Objective3-nitro-L-tyrosine(3-NT)has been shown to be the marker of ONOO-productionin the tissue during septic shock.We aimed to investigate the effects of 3-NT on adrenergic receptor-mediatedvascular reactivity and the possible mechanism.Methods The experiment consisted of two parts.In part Ⅰ twenty-four male SD rats weighing 200-300g were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital 40 mg?kg~(-1).Spontaneousbreathing was maintained.The animals were randomly divided into 2 groups:A control group received normalsaline i.v.(n=12)and B 3-NT group received 3-NT 2.5 ?mol?kg~(-1) i.v.(n=12).30 min and 90 min after 3-NT/N.S.administration the animals received i.v.phenylephrine(PE)0.5,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5 ?g?kg~(-1)(subgroup Ⅰ)or vasopressin 1.3,2.6,3.9,5.2 ?g?kg~(-1)(subgroup Ⅱ)at 15 min intervals.The percentageincrease in MAP was recorded.In part Ⅱ six male SD rats were anesthetized and killed.The thoracic aorta wasimmediately removed and aortic rings of 3 cm in length were prepared and suspended in Krebs-Hensleit solutionmaintained at 37℃ and aerated with 95% O_2 and 5% CO_2 and prestretched with a load of 2g.Before theexperiment the response of the aortic tings to cumulative addition of PE(1?10~(-9)-3?10~(-5)mol)was prelimarilymeasured.Alter five washes the aortic rings were randomly divided into 2 groups:control group(KH solution)and 3-NT group(KH solution containing 3-NT 250 ?mol?L~(-1)).After 60 min incubation,response to PE wasmeasured in both groups and concentration-response curve was obtained and Emax and CE_50 were calculated.Results PE increased MAP in a dose-dependent manner.PE 2.5 ?g?kg~(-1) increased MAP by 20% of thebaseline value.30 and 90 min after 3-NT 2.5 ?mol?kg~(-1) the hypertensive response of the animal to PE wassignificantly inhibited but 3-NT did not affect the increase in MAP induced by vasopressin.In the isolated SD rataortic ring experiment there was no significant difference in the concentration-response curve and Emax and EC50values of PE between the 3-NT and control group.Conclusion 3-NT selectively inhibits ?-adrenoceptor mediatedhemodynamic response through mechanisms other than competitively antagonizing ?-adrenoceptor.

ObjectiveTo screen the colonization of multidrug resistant organisms (MDROs) and determine their risk factors in intensive care unit (ICU), so as to provide the basis of prophylaxis and treatment of MDROs colonization.Methods A prospective single-center study was conducted in ICU of China-Japan Friendship Hospital from June 2008 to December 2014. The nostril and anal swabs for each patient who stayed in ICU over 24 hours were collected. Each specimen was cultured and tested for drug sensitivity. Clinical findings and relative risk factors were collected. The risk factors of MDROs colonization were analyzed with univariate analysis. The independent risk factor was selected from the risk factors withP< 0.05 with logistic regression analysis to analyze the related factors of MDROs colonization in ICU.Results 1 672 patients were enrolled. At ICU admission, MDROs colonization was present in 604 cases (36.12%), of whom 62 cases (3.71%) were found to be colonized with methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus (MRSA), 529 (31.64%) were colonized with extended-spectrumβ-lactamase (ESBL) enterobacteria, 7 (0.42%) were colonized with multidrug resistantAcinetobacter baumannii (MDR-AB), and 6 (0.36%) were colonized with multidrug resistantPseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR-PA). ICU acquired MDROs colonization were 197/1 068 (18.45%), among whom 24 patients (1.44%) were colonized with MRSA, 118 (7.06%) were colonized with ESBL enterobacteria, 50 (2.99%) were colonized with MDR-AB, and 5 (0.30%) were colonized with MDR-PA. By multivariable analysis, prior administration of more than two kinds of antibiotics [odds ratio (OR) = 2.352, 95% confidence interval (95%CI)=1.847 - 4.464,P = 0.002], prior use of broad spectrum antibiotics within 3 months (OR = 2.862, 95%CI = 1.458-5.631,P = 0.014), duration of prior antibiotic administration (OR = 1.781, 95%CI = 1.152 - 3.413,P = 0.003) and hospitalization days prior to ICU admission> 9 days (OR = 1.766, 95%CI = 1.235 - 3.986,P = 0.021) were independent risk factors of MDROs colonization on admission to ICU.ConclusionsHigh prevalence of MDROs colonization in ICU patients was found in our hospital, and ESBL enterobacteria was the predominant bacteria. ICU acquired MDROs colonization is also worth considering, especially for MDR-AB. Identification of risk factors for MDROs colonization may help identify and screen patients with high risk, and it is also instructive in prophylaxis of MDROs colonization/infection and restriction of the use of broad spectrum antibiotics.

AIM: To observe the efficacy of ondansetron by intravenous injection at different time in preventing nausea and vomiting after pediatric strabismus surgery.METHODS: Totally 90 children aged 3 - 11y were randomly selected for pediatric strabismus surgery from June 2013 to August 2013 in our hospital. The ASA grade of all children were Ⅰ - II. Children were randomly divided into three groups with 30 cases each. Group A received intravenous drip of ondansetron 0. 1mg/kg before surgery. Group B received intravenous drip of ondansetron 0. 1mg/kg after surgery. Group C as control group was not given ondansetron. The number and severity of nausea and vomiting were observed within 24h after surgery.
RESULTS: There were no statistical significance in patients' gender, weight, age, duration of anesthesia, ketamine dosage and vital signs intraoperative between the three groups ( P > 0. 05 ). The incidence rate of postoperative nausea and vomiting ( PONV) of group A and B were significantly lower than group C (P<0. 05). The incidence rate of PONV of group A and group B have no significant difference (P>0. 05).
CONCLUSION:Using ondansetron is effective and safe in preventing PONV before and at the end of the pediatric strabismus surgery, which can also improve safety and be lower cost. It is a worthy promoting antiemetic approach for eye surgery.

This study is to investigate the protective effect of mangiferin on NF-kappaB (P65) and IkappaBalpha expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) in rats with cigarette smoke induced chronic bronchitis. The rat model with chronic bronchitis was established by cigarette smoke. Real-time fluorescence RT-PCR was executed for evaluating the NF-kappaB (P65) and IKkappaBalpha gene expression in mononuclear cell, and flow cytometry for their protein expression. The serum hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive proteins) and TNF-alpha (tumor necrosis factor-alpha) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The histopathological score was obtained from lung tissue HE staining slides of lung tissue. The results showed that mangiferin could markedly suppress the NF-kappaB (P65) mRNA and protein expression in mononuclear cell, while promote the IkappaBalpha mRNA and protein expression. Furthermore, mangiferin could lower serum hs-CRP and TNF-alpha level, and reduce the chronic inflammatory damage of bronchiole. These results suggested that mangiferin could notably ameliorate chronic bronchiole inflammation induced by cigarette smoke, and this protective effect might be linked to the regulation of NF-kappaB (P65) and IkappaBalpha expression in mononuclear cell.

Objective: To study the effects of propafenone on action potential (AP) of rabbit ventricular myocytes with the tonic block and use-dependent block of transient sodium current (INa-T). Methods: A total of 10 adult New Zealand white rabbits were sacriifced and 10 individual ventricular myocytes were isolated by enzyme digestion method. Microelectrode technologies were used to record AP-related parameters: maximum diastolic potential (MDP), maximum rate of rise of the action potential upstroke (Vmax), action potential amplitude (APA) and action potential duration at 20%, 50% and 90% (APD20, APD50 and APD90).INa-T was measured, I-V curves and peak currents at different frequencies were detected by whole cell patch clamp before and after propafenone perfusion at 10 μmol/L. Results: There was no statistical difference in MDP at before and after propafenone perfusion as (-80 ± 6) mV vs (-82 ± 5) mV,P>0.05. After perfusion, APA was signiifcantly decreased as (95 ± 12) mV vs ( 125 ± 10) mV,P<0.05, the Vmax slowed down as (330 ± 43) V/s vs (420 ± 54) V/s,P<0.05, while APD20, APD50 and APD90 were unchanged as (8 ± 2) ms vs (6 ± 2) ms,P>0.05, (16 ± 3) ms vs (12 ± 3) ms,P>0.05 and (86 ± 14) ms vs (85 ± 12) ms,P>0.05. After propafenone perfusion, I-V curve ofINa-T was shifted upward and the peak current was decreased as (3001 ± 383) pA vs (4193 ± 378) pA, P<0.05. Before perfusion, when stimulated at 0.06 Hz, 1 Hz, 2 Hz, 5 Hz and 10 Hz, there were no signiifcant use-dependent block inINa-T , and no real difference inINa-T between the 10th and 1st pulse,P>0.05. After perfusion, no significant use-dependent block was observed when stimulated at 0.06 Hz and 1 Hz,P>0.05, while at 2 Hz, 5 Hz and 10 Hz, propafenone perfusion demonstrated signiifcant use-dependent block uponINa-T with the inhibition fractions of (22 ± 11)%, (38 ± 14)% and (52 ± 17)% respectively, those were signiifcantly different from the inhibition fractions at either 0.06 Hz or 1Hz,P<0.05. When the inhibition fractions were compared by each 2 conditions, allP<0.05. Conclusion: Propafenone may slow down the Vmax of AP, reduce APA and without the impact on APD; the effects onINa-T is not only in tonic block, but also more obviously in use-dependent block in isolated ventricular myocytes of New Zealand rabbit. Such inlfuences minimized the impact on QT interval and meanwhile, decreased the incidence of brad arrhythmia.
