Objective To evaluate the effect of age on pharmacodynamics of eisatracurium target-controlled infusion(TCI). Methods Forty patients under N_2O-O_2-propofol-fentanyl anesthesia were divided into groups of Ⅰ and Ⅱ with 20 cases each. Under TOF stimulation monitoring, eisatracurium 0. 15 mg/kg was injected and tracheal intubation was performed when TOFr being zero. and the intubation conditions were evaluated. When T1 restored to 50% cisatracurium TCI started to keep TOFr less than 10%. The recovery times of neuromuscular blockade were recorded after stopping infusion. The amount of cisatracurium consumption was calculated. Results Intubation conditions the onset time and recovery index were not significantly different between two groups. The nonresponse period, duration of action, and recovery time were longer in group Ⅰ than those in group B. Cisatracurium consumption was more in group Ⅰ than that in group Ⅱ (P<0.05). Conclusion By TCI,cisatracurium dosage needed for keeping TOFr less than 10% is less,but the recovery process is still longer in the elderly than those in the younger.

Conclusion:TFA Ni-Ti instrument is superior to Reciproc and Pro Taper Next for the maintenance of the original orientation of the root canal in root canal preparation.

Sphingosine kinase (SphK), sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and S1P receptor (S1PR) are involved in the tumor biological processes such as tumor cell proliferation and migration, and play an important role in the development of cancer. In recent years, researchers have increasingly focused on the interaction between cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment. The tumor microenvironment is genetically stable and can be induced to an antitumor phenotype, which has significant therapeutic advantages. Studies have shown that SphK/S1P/S1PR can regulate multiple aspects of the tumor microenvironment. This review summarizes the effects of SphK and S1P/S1PR signaling on the tumor microenvironment from four perspectives: tumor immune microenvironment, cancer associated fibroblasts, tumor angiogenesis and tumor hypoxic microenvironment, and also outlines potential drug research related to these signal molecules, aiming to elucidate the role of SphK/S1P/S1PR in tumor occurrence and development and provide new ideas for the research of anti-tumor drugs.

Objective To evaluate the association between serum HDL-C and the risk of cardiovascular diseases(CHD) in subjects aged 35-64 years. Methods A prospective study was carried out in 11 provinces from 1992 to 2002. The association of baseline HDL-C level and cardiovascular disease occurrence was analyzed in 30384 subjects aged 35-64 years using Cox multivariate proportional hazards regression. Results (1) Compared with the group of HDL-C≥1.56 mmol/L, multivariate-adjusted relative risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease(ICVD), including CHD and ischemic stroke increased continuously with decreased HDL-C level. (2)HDL-C level had different impact on different types of CVD.Positive association was observed between HDL-C level and the risk of ischemic stroke,but the relationship between HDL-C level and the risk of hemorrhagic stroke was indefinite. Compared with the group with HDL-C≥1.56 mmol/L,the risk of CHD of the group with HDL-C≤1.03 mmol/L increased by 45%(RR=1.45,P＜0.05)and that of ischemic stroke increased by 53%(RR=1.53,P＜0.01).(3)6.4% of ICVD,7.2% of the acute CHD and 7.3% of the acute stroke was attributable to low serum high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Conclusions Starting from HDL-C≥1.56 mmol/L, the risk of ICVD increasescontinuously with decreased HDL-C level. Comprehensive intervention for multiple risk factor clustering should be strengthened to reduce theoverall risk of CVD.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of double balloon endoscopy (DBE) in the elderly. Methods Clinical manifestations and endoscopic findings of 42 elderly patients (aged 60-80 years) and 73 young and middle-aged patients (aged 12-59 years) with small bowel lesions were obtained and compared. Factors influencing the diagnostic outcome of DBE in patients with small bowel bleeding were identified,and the optimal check time after the latest bleeding was determined.Results The procedures of 85.7％ (36/42) in the elderly and 79.5％(58/73) in young and middle aged were completed (P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the procedure time between the two age groups.No severe complications were observed in the elderly group.The overall positive rate by double balloon enteroscopy examination were 71.4 ％ (30/42) and 63.0 ％ (46/73),respectively in the two groups (P＞ 0.05). Ulcer and tumor lesions were the most common findings,and diverticula and angiodysplasia were the second common findings. Longer duration of bleeding and higher number of bleeding episodes were found in the elderly with positive DBE findings than those with negative findings. Positive diagnostic rate was significantly higher when DBE was performed within 7 days than that after 7 days (90％ vs. 40％). Conclusions DBE is a safe,reliable diagnostic modality,especially in the elderly patients with small bowel bleeding in which ulcer and tumor lesions are the most common identifications.DBE is of greater benefit in patients with more bleeding episodes over a long period,and should be performed within 7 days after the last bleeding.
