Objective It has been shown that fluorinated inhalational anesthetics have various adverse effects on the lungs. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different concentrations of isoflurane (ISO) on the lungs in rats.Methods Ninety Wistar rats of both sexes weighing 140-200 g were randomly divided into two groups : (A) control group received only oxygen inhalation ( n = 30) and (B) isoflurane group (n = 60) which was farther divided into 2 subgroups (n = 30):0.6% and 1.4% isoflurane. In each subgroup isoflurane was inhaled for 2 h ( n = 10), 4h (n = 10) or 8 h ( n = 10) . The animals were placed in a glass container and isoflurane was delivered from ISO vaporizer into the container through the inlet. The end-tidal ISO concentration was checked at the outlet. The animals were sacrificed at the end of ISO inhalation. The lungs were immediately removed and blood was collected for determination of (1) lung water content, (2) protein content and neutrophil ratio in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) , (3) serum and BALF surfactant protein-A (SP-A) content and (4) microscopic examination. Results There was no significant difference in all variables between control group and 0.6% ISO subgroup. Exposure to 1.4% ISO for 8 h caused an increase in neutrophil ratio and protein content in BALF, and serum SP-A content but a decrease in BALF SP-A content. There was no significant difference in lung water content between control group and 1.4% ISO (8 h) subgroup. Conclusion Isoflurane (1 MAC) inhalation over 8 h may impair the function of alveolar epithelium.

With the change in the modes of medicine, the traditional educational mode of clinical medicine is unable to meet the development demands of modern medicine. Evidence based medicine, a new mode of medical treatment, reflects the development trends of modern medicine and represents the direction of modern medical advancement. Judging from the perspective of medical education, evidence based medicine is a learning method which differs from the traditional educational mode and represents a new concept of education in clinical medicine. The rise of evidence based medicine demonstrates the direction of reform in medical education in the world today and will also bring about great changes in the mode of medical education in China. It is imperative for us to follow the trend in clinical medical education, update concepts on medical education in line with the basic ideas of evidence based medicine, and push forward reform in the mode of medical education.

Objective To explore the feasibility and curative effect of arthroscopic treatment of avulsion fracture of the tibial attachment of anterior cruciate ligament ( ACL ) using Ethibood line plus double Endobutton plates. Methods From May 2014 to January 2016, 26 cases of acute ACL tibial attachment fracture were treated surgically. They were 16 males and 10 females, aged from 9 to 45 years ( average, 26. 6 years ) . By the Meyers-McKeeve classification, there were 17 cases of type Ⅱand 9 ones of type Ⅲ. In preoperative examina-tion, their Lachman test and Anterior Drawer Test were all positive. All their bone blocks were fixated using Ethibond line plus double Endobutton plates. Results Their operative time ranged from 50 to 70 min, averaging 57 min. On average, the 26 patients obtained a follow-up of 8 months ( from 6 to 13 months ) . X-rays at 3 months after operation showed all fractures united. At the last follow-up, their Lachman test and Anterior Drawer Test were all negative. The range of motion of the knee joint was larger than 120° in all; their Lysholm score of the knee joint averaged 90. 6 ± 2. 9 points, significantly higher than their preoperative value ( 43. 6 ± 4. 7 points ) ( t=7. 583, P=0. 026 ); their International Knee Documentation Committee ( IKDC ) scores averaged 93. 1 ± 4. 2 points, significantly higher than their preoperative value ( 46. 3 ± 5. 1 points ) ( t=8. 162, P=0. 021 ) . No such complications as reflexive neural dystrophy, avascular necrosis or weak knee extension occurred during follow-ups. Conclusion The avulsion fractures of ACL tibial attachment can be treated arthroscop-ically using Ethibood line plus double Endobutton plates, because this technique has such advantages as simple operation, limited invasion, good fracture reduction, strong fixation, and possibility of early functional rehabil-itation of the knee joint.

Objective Cardiovascular diseases comorbid with mental disturbances are described as psycho-cardiology diseases, which have been paid attention increasingly. The aim of this study is to summarize and analyze the findings about the study of psycho-cardiology over a year , and to obtain the baseline data of psycho-ca rdiology diseases in inpatients of cardiology department. Methods Subjects in this study were inpatients of cardiology department in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University in the past 21 months. The demographic and clinical data of the inpatients were collected. Anxiety and depression were evaluated by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. The prevalence of anxiety and depression in patients with various cardiovascular diseases were calculated respectively. To detect the potential risk factors of anxiety or depression, two logistic regression models were established. Results The prevalence of anxiety, depression, anxiety and/or depression, and anxiety comorbid with depression was 38.6%, 12.4%, 51.0%, and 7.9%,respectively. The prevalence of depression in patients with chronic heart failure was 24.6%, which was higher than the general level and that of patients with other cardiovascular diseases. The prevalence of anxiety in patients with acute myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, and hypertension ranged from 39.6% to 41.7%. The long course of diseases, multiple diseases, and the history of cardiac interventional operation were the common risk factors for anxiety and depression. Conclusion Anxiety and depression are common in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Cardiologists should take mental disturbances seriously, and pay more attention to the patients with above risk factors.
