Objective To explore the findings and clinical value of bedside ultrasonography in superior vena cava(SVC) syndrome in children after cardiac operations for congenital heart disease. Methods Bedside ultrasonography was performed on 6 children suspected of SVC syndrome after 5-38 hours[(22?11) hours] postoperatively,to view the structure and blood flow of SVC and its main branches. All the patients were reoperated as soon as diagnosed. Results Five children got severe SVC obstruction, marked with stenosis, turbulent, continuous and high velocity in SVC. Color Doppler flow imaging presented almost absence of flow due to nearly complete occlusion of the innominate vein in 1 child. Ultrasonographic diagnosis was confirmed by the reoperative findings. All the patients were cured by reoperation and discharged with normal ultrasonographic results. Conclusions Bedside ultrasonography can provide early and accurate diagnosis in children with SVC syndrome after cardiac operation.

The human GM CSF cDNAandEGFP cDNA were linked together with IRES and then inserted into the expression vector pCI Egr 1, which was constructed by substituting CMV promoter in pCIneo with the Egr 1 promoter(Egr EG).The vector was transfered into human bone marrow stromal cell line HFCL by Lipofectin TM . The results indicated that the activity of EGFP in transfected cells increased at 18h after exposure to 2.5 Gy. The amounts of secreted GM CSF and CFU GM in serum free supernatants of Egr EG was significantly higher than the control group. EGFP and GM CSF cDNA were successfully integrated and expressed in the cells, which were confirmed by FACS and RT PCR analysis respectively. These in vitro data provide an experimental basis for the in vivo use of gene therapy of GM CSF gene regulated by Egr 1 promoter to protect hematopoiesis from total body irradiation.

Objective To investigate the influence of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) on rat renal tubular epithelial cell apoptosis induced by albumin and the possible mechanism. Methods The renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK-52E) were cultured in DMEM/F12 1:1 medium as normal control group; NRK-52E cells were cultured with 30 g/L fat-free bovine serum albumin (BSA) as the BSA control group; NRK-52E cells were cultured with CoPP (Cobalt pretoporphyrin Ⅸ) 5 μ mol/L for 24 hours as the treatment group. MTT assay was used to observe the effects of CoPP on growth inhibition induced by BSA in NRK-52E cells. The effect of CoPP was observed in BSAinduced apoptosis with the fluorescence microscope dyed by AnnexinV-FITC PI. The levels of HO-1, and expression of Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA were detected by reverse transcript polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results Compared with normal control group, BSA inhibited the growth of NRK-52E cells (P<0.05) and increased cell apoptosis rate (P<0.05). The CoPP pretreatment partially inhibited the BSA-induced apoptosis(P<0.05). Compared with normal control group, HO-1 mRNA expression increased (0.44±0.06 vs 0.39±0.05, P<0.05) in BSA control group. Compared with the BSA control group, the expression of HO-1 mRNA significantly increased after CoPP pretreatment(0.50±0.06 vs 0.44±0.06, P<0.05 ). Meanwhile, BSA increased the expression of Bax mRNA (0.87±0.04 vs 0.67±0.03, P<0.05)and reduced the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA (0.25± 0.04 vs 0.42±0.02, P<0.05 ). CoPP could inhibit the effect of BSA (Bax mRNA: 0.75±0.07, Bcl-2 mRNA: 0.36±0.03, P<0.05, respectively). Conclusions BSA can increase the apoptosis rate significantly and regulate the expression of apoptosis associated proteins in mRNA level directly. CoPP inhibits these changes, which provides evidence to support the essential role of HO-1 in cytoprotective function .
