Objective To evaluate the effect of velocity of inspiratory flow on the severe asthma patients.Methods Twenty patients were ventilated thirty minutes respectively when the peak velocity of flow was 40L/min,60 L/min,80 L/min,100 L/min and 120 L/min,and then we measured their airway peak pressure(Ppeak),plateau pressure(Pplat)and intrinsic positive end expiratory pressure(PEEPi)and arterial blood gas analysis,accounting shunt fraction(QS/QT)and Dead space value(VD/VT).Results When velocity of flow enhanced from 40L/min to 60L/min,Ppeak increased while Pplat,PEEPi,VD/VT decreased obviously.When velocity of flow enhanced from 60L/min to 80L/min,Ppeak increased also but Pplat,PEEPi,QS/QT and VD/VT changed no significant.When velocity of flow enhanced from 60L/min to 100L/min,Pplat and PEEPi increased indistinctly while Ppeak,QS/QT and VD/VT increased distinctly.Conclusions The velocity of inspiratory flow,60~80L /min,can reduce PEEPi、QS/QT 及VD/VT and improve respiratory status.

Objective To investigate the comparative roles of the pathologic changes of gastrocnemius on the pathologic process of varicosis of the lower extremity(VLE). Methods By means of electron microscopy and light microscopy, image analysis and the capillary basement membrane and gastrocnemius muscle cell in 30 patients with VLE and 10 contrast subjects were studied. Results (1) Light microscopically, smearing of cross-striation, sarcolemmal proliferation, fibrinoid degeneration, fatty degeneration, and haemorrhage were seen in muscle of patients with VLE. (2) Electron microscopically, increase in thickness of the capillary basement membrane, increase in lipid droplets and glycogen, swelling of mitochondra, myelin figure, lipofusin, disruption of the myofibrils, and myopathic changes were seen in muscle cells of patients with VLE. The area and thickness of the capillary basement membrane in patients with varicosis were higher than those in the control subjects ( P 0.05). Conclusions (1) It is suggested that the ultrastructure changes of gastrocnemius muscles result from ischemia and hgpoxia. Among the changes, the capillary basement membrane plays an important role in the induce insuficiency of the calf muscle pump function which result in VLE extremities. (2) It is suggested that degeneration of gastrocnemius muscle cell may relate to the insufficiency of calf muscle pump function. (3) In early pathologic process, insufficiency of the calf muscle pump function can be compensate by muscle cells hypertrophy. The transverse areas of muscle cells in early period were bigger than that in later period, so that the compensation was limited, chronic ischemia and hypoxia can affecte the calf muscle pump function.

Aim To investigate the toxicity of isopsor-alen in HepG2 cells and its effects on bile acid, bile acid synthesis and transport. Methods Cell viability was evaluated by MTT assay and bile acid was deter-mined inside HepG2 cells, with exposure to various isopsoralen for 24h. The mRNA transcription of BSEP, MRP2, MRP3, NTCP, OATP2, OSTα, CYP7A1, CYP27 A1 , FXR and PXR were assessed by real-time PCR. Results The cell viability was decreased dose-dependently with isopsoralen in HepG2 cells, and IC50 was 118. 1μmol·L-1 exposure to isopsoralen for 24h. Bile acid inside cells significantly increased with 100 and 400 μmol · L-1 isopsoralen. Isopsoralen caused the down-regulation of MRP2 , MRP3 , CYP7 A1 mRNA at 25 μmol · L-1 . Beside these, the up-regulation of OATP2,OSTα,CYP27A1,FXR,PXR with 100 μmol· L-1 isopsoralen, but there was no significant change of BSEP and NTCP. Conclusion The results show that isopsoralen induces bile acid accumulation and cytotox-icity which may be associated with the down-regulation of MRP2, MRP3 in HepG2 cells.

Based on the principle of binocular stereopsis, three-dimensional reconstruction of the nucleus isthmus (NI) in the frog (Rana nigromaculata) has been realized by using a microcomputer system. The histological techniques used were somewhat different from conventional ones in that two pin holes, which were regarded as fiducial points to ensure an accurate alignment of the outlines of microstructures in the serial sections during three-dimensional computer reconstructing, were made in the tissue block with a micropipette before it was cut. All operations such as collection of outline-data of the microstructures, data processing and drawing output were all under control of the software. Three-dimensional morphology of NI and its location in the midbrain have been demonstrated by the stereopairs. Its dimensions measured on the basis of the reconstruction is 500 (caudorostal)?810 (dorsoventral)?810 (mediolateral)?m. The significance of three-dimensional computer reconstruction for accurately measuring the dimensions of NI and other biological microstructures and for the study of histological morphology are discussed.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics of colorectal metastatic tumors. Methods Cases which were clinically diagnosed as metastatic tumors to the colorectum were retrieved from the data base of the Department of Pathology, Peking U-niversity Third Hospital. The clinicopathologic features were studied and immunohistochemical stains were performed on some of the ca-ses for differential diagnosis. Results Fifty three cases which showed intestinal wall involvement were studied. In 43. 4% (23/53) of them, only serosa/subserosa was involved and mucosal involvement was observed in 37. 7% (20/53) of the cases. Sigmoid colon and rectum were the most frequently involved intestinal segments (24/53, 45. 3%). Female reproductive system was the most common ori-gin of the metastatic tumors (33/53, 62. 3%), followed by the digestive system (15/53, 28. 3%). The most common histological type was ovarian serous carcinoma (22/53, 41. 5%). 96. 2% (51/53) of the metastatic tumors were centrally located at the serosa/subserosa or the muscular propria and prominent lymphovascular invasion was observed in 26. 4% (14/53) of the cases. In cases with mucosal involvement, 35% ( 7/20 ) had foci that were lack of desmoplastic reaction, 20% ( 4/20 ) exhibited in-situ growth and/or paradoxical maturation of tumor cells which led to misdiagnosis in 2 of the 17 pre-operative biopsies. Conclusions Metastatic carcino-ma in the colorectum can be highly informed by predominantly involving the serosa/subserosa or muscular propria and prominent lym-phovascular invasion. In-situ growth and paradoxical maturation of tumor cells in the mucosa are diagnostic pitfalls in pre-operative co-lonic biopsy and should be aware in practice.

Objective To survey and compare the awareness and attitude of hospice care among medical staff from hospitals ranked 1, 2, and 3. And to examine the association of hospital grading with awareness and attitude of hospice care. So that this study would promote orientation for hospice care theoretically. Methods A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was performed among medical staff in Suzhou to investigate the awareness and attitude of hospice care from hospitals ranked 1, 2, and 3. Generalized linear regression model was applied to examine the association of hospital levels with awareness and attitude of hospice care. Results A total of 990 individuals were surveyed. Among them, 580 were from hospitals ranked 3, 252 were from hospitals ranked 2, and 158 were from hospitals ranked 1. The attitude to someone self′s death scored 7.2 ±2.1, 7.6 ±2.4, 7.2 ±2.1, the attitude to patients′death scored 11.0 ±2.6, 11.6 ±2.3, 11.5±2.3, there was a significant difference among the 3 levels (F=3.34, 3.69, all P<0.05). After controlling for age, education level, years of work, religion status, family type, and disease condition in family, as compared with hospitals ranked 3, the average score of the awareness of hospice care decreased 0.431 (P=0.049) and the average score of attitude to hospice care decreased 2.944 (P=0.022) in medical staff from hospitals ranked 1. As for the 7 aspects of hospice care attitude, the average score of attitude to patients′death decreased 0.634 (P=0.003), the average score of attitude to implementation of hospice care for patients and their families decreased 0.926 (P=0.046), and the average score of supporting hospice care decreased 0.664 (P=0.011) in medical staff form hospitals ranked 1 as compared with hospitals ranked 3. We failed to find a significant difference in awareness and attitude of hospice care between hospitals ranked 2 and 3 (all P>0.05). Conclusions The awareness and attitude of hospice care is poorer in medical staff from hospitals ranked 1 as compared with those from hospitals ranked 2 or 3. Our finding suggests that medical staff from hospitals ranked 1 is a target population on whom hospice care training would be performed.
