Objective To investigate the effect of ropivacaine preconditioning on the toxicity of ropivacaine to ND7/23 cells.Methods ND7/23 cells were cultured in DMEM culture medium at 37℃ in 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h at a concentration of 1 × 106/ml. The cells were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 3 each) ;control group (group C), ropivacaine group (group R) and ropivacaine preconditioning group (group RP). In group R, the cells were exposed to 1% ropivacaine 100 μl and incubated for 1 h. In group RP, the cells were exposed to 0.02% ropivacaine 100 μl for 15 min, after ropivacaine was washed out, 1% ropivacaine 100 μl was then added and the cells were incubated for 1 h. The cell viability was measured using CCK-8 assay and apoptosis using Annexin-V/PI staining.Results Compared with group C, the cell viability was significantly decreased, while the early apoptotic rate and late apoptotic rate were significantly increased in groups R and RP ( P ＜ 0.05). Compared with group R, the cell viability was significantly increased, while the early apoptotic rate and late apoptotic rate were significantly decreased in group RP (P ＜ 0.05) .Conclusion Ropivacaine preconditioning can protect ND7/23 cells from bupivacaine-induced cytotoxicity through inhibiting apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of etomidate on porcine adrenal cortical cells and the influence of preconditioning with small dose etomidate. Methods Porcine adrenal cortical cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 15% fetal bovine serum at 37℃ in 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h. The concentration was 2 × 106/ml. The experiment was performed in 2 parts. In part Ⅰ the cells were exposed to 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 1000 mol/L etomidate respectively and incubated for 6, 12and 24 h, while in control group, the cells were exposed to 0.5% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Cell viability was measured using CCK-8 assay and apoptosis by flow cytometry, and the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of etomidate was calculated at 24 h of incubation. In part Ⅱ the cells were exposed to 0.6 μmol/L etomidate for 1 h and were allowed to recover for 4 h after etomidate washout, then etomidate 325 μmol/L was added and the cells were incubated for 24 h. Cell viability and apoptosis were assessed and the IC50 of etomidate was calculated as in part Ⅰ .Results Etomidate inhibited viability of porcine adrenal cortical cells and induced apoptosis in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The IC50 of etomidate at 24 h of incubation was 325 μmol/L. Preconditioning with0.6 μmol/L etomidate for 1 h attenuated the apoptosis induced by etomidate 325 μmol/L. Conclusion Etomidate can inhibit cell viability and induce apoptosis in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Preconditioning with small dose etomidate has protective effect.

Objective To explore the correlation between axon guidance factor Semaphorin 5A and clinicopathological features and its role in the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.Methods The expression of Semaphorin 5A in gastric cancer tissues of 171 patients with different gender,age,histological type and TNM stage was detected with immunohistochemistry assay.The expression of Semaphorin 5A was determined by Western blotting assay in gastric cancer cell lines SGC7901 and MKN-45 with metastatic ability and gastric cancer cell lines SNU-1 and AGS without metastatic ability.With RNA interfere technique(RNAi),Semaphorin 5A siRNA expression vector was constructed and transfected into gastric cancer cell line SGC7901.The stable gastric cancer cell line down-expressing Semaphorin 5A was established.The effect of Semaphorin 5A gene silencing on the adhesion,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cell was examined by cell adhesion test,wound healing test and transwell chamber assays.Results The expression level of Semaphorin 5A was correlated with the differentiation degree of gastric cancer(x2 =6.32,P =0.01),lymphnode metastasis(x2 =7.68,P=0.01)and distant metastasis of gastric cancer(x2 =13.67,P =0.00),not correlated with age(x2 =0.21,P=0.79),gender(x2=1.79,P=0.15)and the depth of gastric cancer invasion(x2=1.34,P=0.55).The expression of Semaphorin 5A in cell lines SGC7901 and MKN-45 was significantly higher than that of cell lines SNU-1 and AGS(P＜0.01).Semaphorin 5A gene silencing significantly suppressed the adhesion,migration and invasion abilities of gastric cancer cells.Conclusion Semaphorin 5A may play a catalytic role in the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer through increasing the adhesion,migration and invasion abilities of gastric cancer cell.

BACKGROUND:Proximal femoral nail anti-rotation has good biomechanical basis, and has obvious advantages for intertrochanteric fracture in aged patients, but there are some problems in the clinic, because of improper handling of material matching and operation details, which can impact therapeutic effects and functional recovery. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the efficacy and issues of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture in patients at more than 60 years old. METHODS:From July 2011 to July 2012, proximal femoral nail anti-rotation was used to treat 56 cases of intertrochanteric fractures. Clinical data bank was established to analyze intraopeative problems and postoperative complications. At 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months postoperatively, outpatient and telephone folow-up were carried out to evaluate therapeutic effects and functional recovery of hip joint. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Four patients died within 1 year. Seven patients lost within a year for other reasons. The remaining 45 patients were folowed with the time from 12 to 24 months, with an average time of 18.2 months. Harris score was (85.00±6.75) points. There were excelent in 26 cases, good in 15 cases, average in 3 cases and poor in 1 case, with an excelent and good rate of 91%. 18 cases were not satisfied with the position of fracture fragments. In 9 cases, proximal femur was not match with the proximal femoral nail anti-rotation. Seven cases were not satisfied because of the location and length of the spiral blade. Seven cases affected lateral cortex fracture. One case experienced postoperative pulmonary embolism. One case suffered from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Nine cases suffered from local sweling. 13 cases experienced hip pain. Five cases affected the healing of fracture extended. Results showed that proximal femoral nail anti-rotation for intertrochanteric fracture in aged patients obtained good outcomes, but we should improve the separation of fracture fragments and reduce intraoperative and postoperative complications.

This paper dealt with the influences of different media, temperature, light and pH to the amount of oospore formation. The results showed that millet agar, bai yun beau agar and soybean agar provided the favorable condition for oospore formation, the number of oospores was 131.6~149.6 /cm2, but a few oospores was formation on frozen pea agar. The results also suggested that the optimal conditions for oospore formation were 18℃, pH7 and darkness. The oospores failed to be formed tinder fluorescent or black light.

Objective To detect the strain features of regional wall abnormalities in patients with coronary artery disease during each diastolic period, and its possibility to evaluate regional left ventricular cardiocyte viability and diastolic function.Methods 54 patients with anterior myocardial infarction (MI group) and 78 normal subjects (NOR group) underwent Doppler tissue imaging, which were performed in 2-chamber-view by strain curves synchronously.Results In the NOR group, strain value of 66 cases (84.62%) showed an gradually increasing negative value from the apex to base to middle of left ventricle, while in the MI group, there were 9 cases (16.67%) with such a trend. IR phase: in the NOR group, 564 segments (90.38%) were upward wave bands, but in the MI group, there were 123 segments (28.47%) having such waves ( P<0.05). RF phase: in the NOR group, 576 segments (92.31%) were upward and steep wave bands, but in the MI group, the number of upward waves were obviously less (102 segments,23.61%) ( P<0.01). SF period: compared with the NOR group, which was horizontal, the MI group had upward wave bands ( P<0.05).Conclusion Regional myocardial ischemia and infarction can cause significant regional diastolic wall abnormalities of strain value in active diastolic phase. Regional diastolic wall motion abnormalities can be evaluated quantitatively and synchronously with high sensitivity by strain curve which has the potential value in cardiocyte viability and diastolic function.

Objective:To study the clinical effects of Yishen-Shengxue Decoction on the prevention and treatment of bone marrow suppression in acute myeloid leukemia after chemotherapy. Methods:A total of 60 patients in Beijing Longfu Hospital from June 2018 to March 2020 were randomly divided into control group and observation group, 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with western medicine and blood transfusion, while the observation group was treated with Yishen-Shengxue Decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. We recorded the occurrence time and duration of Ⅳ degree myelosuppression of the two groups, compared the score of symptoms and signs, injection volume of recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and blood transfusion volume, and recorded the incidence of adverse reactions after chemotherapy. Results:The occurrence of myelosuppression in the observation group was significantly later than that of the control group (5.07 ± 0.87 d vs. 3.83 ± 1.15 d; t=4.695, P<0.01), and the duration of grade Ⅳ myelosuppression was significantly shorter than that of the control group (7.20 ± 0.76 d vs. 10.03 ± 1.30 d; t=10.305, P<0.01); The quantity of granulocyte colony stimulating factor injection in the observation group was significantly less than that of the control group (7.2 ± 0.8 vs. 10.0 ± 1.3, t=10.305), and the quantity of red blood cell suspension (2.5 ± 1.5 U vs. 4.7 ± 1.5 U, t=7.749) and platelet transfusion (1.7 ± 0.5 U vs. 3.1 ± 0.9 U, t=5.879) were significantly less than that of the control group ( P<0.01); the quantitative score of symptoms and signs in the observation group were significantly lower than thoseof the control group ( t values were 18.208, 15.129, respectively, all Ps<0.01). The adverse reactions of the patients in the observation group after chemotherapy were significantly less than those of the control group, and the incidence of infection, bleeding and ECG abnormalities were statistically significant ( χ2 values were 7.500, 10.000, 4.286, respectively, all Ps<0.01). Conclusion:Yishen-Shengxue Decoction is helpful to delay the occurrence of myelosuppression, and promote its recovery, reduce various adverse reactions during myelosuppression, and improve the quality of life.
