Schistosoma japonicum were obtained from infected rabbits 24 hours after treatment with praziquantel at a single dose of 30,35,40 mg/kg. The drug-induced alterations of histochemistry of the worms have been studied.The results indicated that the glycogen content and AKP (alkaline phosphatase) activities of the worms decreased markedly or disappeared as compared with those of untreated worms; however, the activities of ACP (acid phosphatase) in both treated and untreated worms revealed no apparent change.

The trichomonadicidal activity of tinidazole (Fasigyn) was evaluated by the ire vitro cultivation of Trichomonas vaginalis and Trichomonas hominis with different drug concentrations. The results showed that, after 48-hour incubation with tinidazole, the 100% lethal concentration was 20?g/ml. The trichomonadicidal effect of tinidazole was one titre lower than that of metronidazole. With regard to T. hominis, after 48-hour incubation with tinidazole, the 100% lethal concentration was 20?g/ml. In comparison with metronidazole, the trichomonadicidal effect of tinidazole was similar.

Schistosoma japonicum were obtained from infected rabbits 24 hours after treatment with lower dose praziquantel (30~40mg/kg). The drug-induced tegu-mental surface alteiations of the worms were studied by rcanning electron microscopy. In comparison with untreated worms, the ultrastructures of oral and ventral suckers in both male and female worms were not affected by praziquantel. Major surface alterations including pronounced swellings, erosions and ulcerations were observed,The results showed that the female worms of S. japonicum and those treated with praziquantel at a dosage of 40 mg/kg were more seriously damaged than the male worms and those treated with praziquantel at other dosages.

Mice infected with Schistosoma japonicum were treated with a single oral dose of levo-praziquantel 75mg/kg or racemic praziquantel 150mg/kg. 10min-7d after administration of the drugs, the infected mice were sacrificed and the parasites were studied. The tegumental antigen of the integral worms and of. the worm sections were tested by IFA.10-30 min after treatment more than 50% of the tegumental surface of adult worm showed weak and small fluorescent spots in treated groups. 1-6h after treatment, the sucker and extremity of adult worm showed brighter fluorescent spots. From 6h after treatment, there were very bright fluorescent spots on the whole worm surface. 3d after treatment, the fluorescent intensity was weaker than before, and there was no significant difference between the levo-praziquantel group and racemic praziquantel group in the exposure of tegumental surface antigen. The results demonstrated that levo-praziquantel, just like the racemic-praziquantel, could disturb the tegumental metabolic course of the schistosomes, caused tegumental damage and exposure of adult worm surface antigen.

DNA from five isolates of Entamoeba histolytica were examined for their pathogenicity by polymerase chain reaction. Three isolates SH-3,SH-6,SH-8 were isolated from patients with acute amoebic dysentery, whereas SH-5 and SH-7 were isolated from asymptomatic cyst passers. Gel electrophoresis of PCR products showed that primers P11 , P12 for pathogenic strains could amplify genomic DNA extracted from SH-8 , and primers P13, P14 for non-pathogenic strains could amplify genomic DNA extracted from SH-3, SH-5, SH-6 and SH-7. Furthermore, zymodeme analysis and the reactivity of McAb 4G6, which recognizes the 30 kDa antigen of pathogenic E. histolytica indicated that only SH-8 was pathogenic, while the others were nonpathogenic. The results of the genotypic analysis by PCR were in accord with the phenotypic properties.It is suggested that there are differences in genomic DNA between pathogenic and non-pathogenic strains. PCR is a highly sensitive and specific method for genomic DNA analysis of E. histolytica.

Objective To discuss the anesthetic effect of iv injection with propofol for pediatric orchiopexy.Methods Totally 80 children who needed orchiopexy were selected,and were divided into two groups randomly.The control group (39 cases) were iv given propofol and ketamine for anesthesia.The observation group (41 cases) were iv given propofol,ketamine,and remifentanil.The anesthetic effect of propofol for pediatric orchiopexy was evaluated by HR,MAP,SpO2,recovery time,dosage of propofol and ketamine,and postoperative adverse reaction.Results Before the injection and injection for 5 min,there was no statistical significance on MAP,HR,and SpO2 between two groups.Pulling the testicles,the MAP and HR in observation group were lower than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05).There was no statistical significance on SpO2.The recovery time of observation group was shorter than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05).And the dosages of propofol and ketamine in observation group were also less than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05).There was no statistical significance on postoperative adverse reaction between two groups.Conclusion The iv anesthesia with propofol has a good anesthetic effect on the pediatric orchiopexy.The anesthesia is stable and has little effect on vital signs,rapid postoperative recovery without increasing adverse reaction,which is worthy of clinical use.

Objective: To explore heart rate variability (HRV) and arrhythmia in patients with resistant hypertension.
Methods: Our work included 3 groups:Resistant hypertension (RH) group, n=39, Non-resistant hypertension (NRH) group, the hypertension could be controlled by 1-3 medications, n=42 and Control group, composed of 40 healthy subjects. The 24h ambulatory blood pressure and electrocardiogram were monitored, the time-domain of HRV and arrhythmia parameters were compared among 3 groups which including standard deviation of all normal RR intervals (SDNN), standard deviation of the average normal RR intervals for all 5-min segments (SDANN), the mean of standard deviation of all 5-minute RR intervals (SDNN Index), the root mean square of the differences between adjacent R-R intervals (rMSSD) and the percentage of adjacent R-R intervals varied by more than 50 ms (pNN50).
Results: Compared with Control group, both RH and NRH groups showed decreased time-domain HRV parameters, all P<0.05. Compared with NRH group, RH group had the lower time-domain HRV parameters, all P<0. 05, while the rMSSD was similar between 2 groups (t=-1.5048, P=0.1364). The rates of arrhythmia in both RH and NRH groups were higher than Control group. The incidences of premature atrial contraction and atrial tachycardia were higher in RH group than NRH group, P<0.05, while the premature ventricular contraction, ventricular tachycardia and A-V block were similar between 2 groups, all P>0.05.
Conclusion: RH patients had decreased HRV and increased arrhythmia, especially with the higher incidence of atrial arrhythmia.
