Objective To evaluate the effects of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES)130/0.4 and 6% HES 200/0.5 on blood coagulation in patients undergoing major operation under general anesthesia.Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 18-64 yr undergoing major operation under general anesthesia during which the blood loss was expected to be＞20%of blood volume were allocated randomly into 3 groups(n=20 each):Ⅰ control group(C);Ⅱ6% HES200/0.5 group (H) and Ⅲ HES130/0.4 group (V).In group H and V the patients Arterial blood samples were taken before(T1),immediately(T2)and 1 h after the end of fluid infusion(T3)for determination of hematocrit(Hct),platelet count(PLT)and prothrombin time(PT),platelet maximum aggregation test induced by 5 μmol/L ADP,and Sonoclot coagulation and platelet function analysis(gbACT,CR,PF,TP).Activated partial thromboplastin time(Am),coagulation factor Ⅷ (FⅧ)activity and von Willebrand factor(vWF)were measured only in group H and V.Results (1) PT and APTT were significantly prolonged after fluid infusion at T2 and T3 as compared with the baseline values at T1 in group H and V.(2)FⅧ activity and platelet maximum aggregation induced by ADP were significantly decreased at the end of fluid infusion at T2 as compared with the baseline at T1 but increased again at T3 in group H and V.(3)There was no significant change in Sonoclot coagulation parameters after fluid infusion as compared with the baseline except clot formation rate (CR)in group H and V.Conclusion Acute hypervolemic hemodilution with 6% HES130/0.4 or 200/0.5 has minimal effect on blood coagulation and there is no significant difference in blood coagulation changes induced by 6%HES130/0.4 and 200/0.5.

Objective To know the indoor air pollution status in the newly decorated residential houses in Jiaozuo and to study the effect of decoration materials on the pollution. Methods To monitor formaldehyde, ammonia and benzene levels in the indoor air of 39 newly decorated rooms in Jiaozuo. Results The exceed standard rates of formaldehyde, ammonia and benzene in the indoor air were 73.6%, 84.7% and 25.8% respectively. Exceed standard rate of formaldehyde in the room which held the new furniture was the highest, 88.8%. Conclusion Decoration may cause indoor air pollution, the most part of the pollutants are formaldehyde and benzene. The level of the pollution depends on the different usages of the rooms.

Objective To study the pathogenesis,diagnosis and treatment of the compression syndrome of the third common plantar digital nerves.Methods Conservative methods were at first used for all the 34 cases of this disease.Treatment methods includes:wearing shoes with soft bottom and metatarsal pad;the administration of Chinese herbs;the application of direct current iontherapy by filtering Chinese herbs and performing local injection therapy with steroid at the tenderness points.15 patients with no effect following conservative methods and other 3 recurrent cases were treated with section of deep transverse metatarsal ligament and relaxing the nerves compression.Of the 18 cases,5 had additional to excision of the neuroma.Results Of the 34 cases treated with conservative methods,19 had effective results,of which 6 cases recurred,and 15 cases had no effect.18 cases treated with operation had no recurrence.Conclusion Toe extending test and forefoot transversely compressing test provide a valuable basis for diagnosis.Conservative treatment are usually effective in earlier phase.If conservative treatment is not effective,the transverse metatarsal ligament should be sectioned,nerves should be relaxed and the neuroma must be excised.The results of operative treatment are satisfactory.

The expression patterns of gastrin(Gas),β-endorphin(End).somatostatin(Ss),glucagons(Glu),and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)cells in the duck bursa of Fabricius were studied by the immunohiswchemicai method associated with image analysis.The resuhs showed that the Gas-positive cells with high intensity wrte seen in the follicle-associated epitllelium (FAE),the End with medium intensity in the interfollicular epithelium,the End,Gas and 5-HT with medium or high intensity in the cortex of lymphoid follicles.and the Gas with high intensity in the medulla of lymphoid follicles.Both SS and Gh showed negative reaction.The pre-sent results demonstrated that the Gas,End and 5-HT cells are differentially expressed in the different parts of the duck bursa.The positive cells distributed in the cortex of lymphoid follicles might favour exerting their influence via an endocrine, autocrine or paracrine pathways on the development of B cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of RDP1258 on survival of rat cardiac allograft. Methods RDP1258 was synthesized and the model of rat heart abdominal transplantation was established. Animals were divided into four groups. Group 1 received no immunosuppression. Group 2 received CsA alone. Group 3 received RDP1258 alone. Group 4 received RDP1258 and subtherapeutic CsA. In all cases RDP1258 was administrated intraperitoneally and CsA was gavaged. Light and electron microscopic examinations were taken . Transplanted hearts were monitored daily by direct palpation. Results The purity of synthesized RDP1258 was over 95 % and the molecular weight was in accord with theoretical value. The histology and the ultrastructure changed little in grafts in group 3 and group 4. Survival of rat cardiac allograft was significantly prolonged in group 4. Conclusions RDP1258 can suppress acute rejection. Perioperative administration of RDP1258 in combination with CsA can significantly prolong survival of rat cardiac allograft.

V-P and MR tests were done at the same time using white porcelain board.The results showed that the white porcelain method was simple and convenient compared to the traditional method.

Objective To investigate the association between the target organ damage and morning blood pres- sure surge(MBPS) in the elderly hypertensives.Methods Three hundred thirty-two patients submitted to 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring were categorized as with MBPS (n=173),and non-MBPS(n=149).Total cholesterol,body mass index(BMI),left ventricular mass index (LVMI),carotid endothelial medium thickness (CCA-IMT and ICA-IMT) and corrected QT dispersion(QTcd) were determined.Results 24 h,day and night mean systolic blood pressure in MBPS group were significantly higher than that in the non-MBPS group(P
