To study the induced condition and characteristics of T cell anergy in vitro. Methods: Anergic Tcell was induced by combination of B7-1 mAb and cyclosporin A (CsA) in vitro, cytokine gene of anergic T cells was detected by RT-PCR. Results: T cell anergy was antigen-specific. The state of T cell anergy can be reversed by PHA, CD3 mAb and PMA plus A23187. IL-2 can prevent the induction of T cell anergy, but it can not reverse the state of un-responsiveness. IL-2 and IFN mRNA can not express in anergic T cells. In contrast, IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA were detectable. Conclusion: T cell anergy can be induced in vitro , cytokine profile of anergic T cells deviated to Th2-like phe-norype.

To compare the chemical change of Paeoniae Radix Alba (PRA) after vinegar-baking processing, as well as the effect of vinegar types exerted on the processing, 1H NMR-based metabolomic approach combined with multivariate statistical analysis was used to investigate the different metabolites between the raw and two vinegar-baked PRA. More than thirty metabolites were identified in the 1H NMR spectrum of PRA, and the multivariate statistical analysis showed that raw and two vinegar-baked PRA could be separated obviously. After vinegar-baking, the contents of isoleucine, lactate, alanine, arginine, albiflorin, and 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF) elevated, while those of sucrose, paeoniflorin and its analogues (calculated by benzoate) decreased. The chemical compositions of two vinegar-baked PRA were also different. Shanxi vinegar- baked PRA showed higher levels of leucine, isoleucine, valine, and albiflorin, while rice vinegar-baked PRA contained more sucrose and paeoniflorin's analogues (calculated by benzoate). And the chemical changes in Shanxi vinegar-baked PRA were greater than those of rice vinegar-baked PRA. The results revealed the chemical differences between raw and vinegar-baked PRA, as well as the influence of vinegar type on processing, in a holistic manner, the results obtained suggested that the correlations between the chemical change and the drug action after processing, as well as the vinegar type used in processing, should be further studied.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB)-guided tracheal intubation with laryngeal mask airway i-gel (LMA i-gel) in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery. Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 36-62 yr, weighing 57-78 kg, scheduled for cervical spine surgery under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 20 each): FOB-guided tracheal intubation with oropharynx ventilation tube group (group O) and FOB-guided tracheal intubation with LMA i-gel (group I). Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.05 mg/kg, propofol 2 mg/kg, fentanyl 2-3 μg/kg and rocuronium 0.9 mg/kg. The intubation time, fiberoptic bronchoscope score, the number of successful intubation, hypertension, tachycardia and hypoxemia were recorded. All the patients were followed up postoperatively for adverse effects like sore throat or hoarseness, etc. Results The rate of successful LMA i-gel placement at first attempt was 100%, placement time was (10 + 3) s, and the rate of successful intubation in the two groups was 100%. The intubation time was significantly shorter, the rate of successful intubation at first attempt and fiberoptic bronchoscope score were significantly higher in group I than in group O (P < 0.05). Hypertension, tachycardia and hypoxemia were not found in the two groups. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse effects between the two groups (P >0.05). Conclusion FOB-guided tracheal intubation with LMA i-gel can provide adequate ventilation during operation, improve the success rate of FOB-guided intubation and shorten the intubation time in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery.

Objective To introduce a new design of interlocking system which is easy in use, makes the distal fracture fragments well aligned and rigidly fixated, reduces exposure to radiation for the surgeon and patient, and allows for a decrease in operating time. Methods The new interlocking system was designed to be a self-locking nail with bevels (b-SLN). According to the bevel principle, the axial force of the nail should be turned into a transverse force so as to control the transverse nail's movement. 10 dry-bone simples were made into the fracture model of the middle-femur to test the prototype nail. The retention of the nail in the intramedullary cavity was evaluated by the radiogram. The mechanical properties of a simulated model of single leg loading were tested on the instron-1342 type MTS. Results The prototype nail performed well as designed. The process was stable and reliable. The retention in the intramedullary cavity was fine. The shearing force between the transverse nail and main nail was enough to cut anything around them. The mechanical properties of b-SLN were similar to those of the Grosse-Kempf nail, better than auto fork compress locked intramedullary nail, and much better than MHUA nail and Ender's nail. Conclusions The structure of b-SLN is simple and reliable. There is no focus-point under stress. Its biomechanic properties are satisfactory. It is easy to use with no need of fluoroscopes in the operating theatre.
