Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of using continuous spinal anesthesia (CSA) in high risk elderly patients undergoing lower abdominal or lower extremity surgery. Methods Sixty-four ASA III or IV patients aged 70-101 yr weighing 38-55 kg undergoing lower abdominal or lower extremity surgery were randomized to receive epidural anesthesia (EA) (n = 32) or CSA ( n = 32). The patients were complicated with cerebral embolism and/or hypertension, coronary artery disease and/or COPD and/or diabetes mellitus. The patients were unpremedicated. EA was performed at I2.3 or L1.2. A test dose of 2 ml of 2% lidocaine was given. When no signs of spinal block was observed, 1 % ropivacaine was given in small increments until the block height reached T6-8 . CSA was performed at L3,4 using Spinocath (B. Braun). A 2-cm catheter segment was left in subarachnoid space. 0.5% bupivacaine was given in 0.5 ml increments every 3 min until satisfactory block level was reached. The onset time of anesthesia was recorded. The degree of motor block was assessed using modified Bromage scale. Arterial blood samples were obtained before anesthesia (T0 , baseline), when satisfactory block level was reached ( T1), 1 h after skin incision (T2) and at the end of operation (T3) for determination of lactate concentration. The amount of ephedrine and innovar ( droperidol-fentanyl mixture) used during operation and the recovery of motor function of lower extremities were also recorded. Results The demographic data including sex, age, height, body weight, ASA physical status and types of operation were not significantly different between the two groups. BP and HR were significantly decreased after anesthesia as compared to the baseline values at T0 in group EA, whereas in CSA group there were no significant changes in BP and HR after anesthesia. Significantly more patients received ephedrine in EA group (98% ) than in CSA group (15%) and the mean dose of ephedrine was significantly higher in EA group [(34.5?3.1) mg] than in CSA group [(4.3?0.5) mg ]. The onset of block was significantly faster in CSA group than in EA group. Motor blockade was less intense in EA group as assessed by modified Bromage scale. Analgesia was more satisfactory in CSA group and less patients received innovar during operation in CSA group (20% ) than in EA group (51% ). The recovery of motor function of lower extremities was faster in CSA group than in EA group. Blood lactate was significantly higher at T1 , T2 , T3 in EA group than in CSA group. No late complications related to CSA was observed. Conclusion CSA is safe and effective and provides better analgesia with better hemodynamic stability and faster onset of block than EA in elderly patients.

Objective To establish a benign esophageal stricture model and observe the effect of 32P radioactive isotopes on benign esophageal stricture scarring with intracavitary irradiation so as to provide experimental evidence for inhibiting scar hyperplasia and preventing esophageal restenosis after endoscopic dilation for benign esophageal stricture.Methods Benign esophageal stricture models were established in 18 healthy adult rabbits by annular incision and anastomosis.Then the rabbits were randomly divided into control group,hormone group and irradiation group,with six rabbits in each group.On day 2 after surgery,we measured inner diameter of the anastomotic stoma;then the control group received saline intervention,the hormone group was given dexamethasone,and the irradiation group was given 32P radioactive isotopes.The rabbits were observed for two weeks for their general condition and weight.After the intervention,we measured inner diameter of the anastomotic stoma.Liver functions (ALT and AST) were tested again before modeling and after intervention.Then the rabbits were put to death and had tissue in the esophageal stricture area removed for pathological examination and esophageal HE staining.We determined hydroxyproline (HYP) content of esophageal tissue around the anastomotic stoma.Restlts Benign esophageal stricture model was established successfully.After 2 weeks,the rabbits' appetite was obviously diminished in control group and relatively poor in hormone group;obviously improved in irradiation group.The rabbits' weight increased in radiation group compared with the other two groups (P<0.05).The esophageal inner diameter in irradiation group widened obviously compared with the other two groups (P < 0.05).In irradiation group,the number of fibroblasts decreased obviously,collagen fiber and granulation tissue were not obvious;HYP content was lower than that in the other two groups,and was close to that in a normal esophagus (P>0.05).ALT and AST did not differ before and after intervention in all groups (P>0.05).Conclusion ① We can establish benign esophageal stricture model successfully through the surgery.② 32Pradioactive isotopes radiation therapy can be used to prevent early scar formation in esophageal benign stricture,and is superior to dexamethasone therapy.

Objective To study the effects of different hypoxic training modes on the activities of respiratory chain complexes in the brain mitochondria of rats. Methods Forty healthy two-month-old male Wister rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: living low-training low(LoLo), living high-training high(HiHi), living high-training low (HiLo), living low-training high(LoHi), and living high-exercise high-training low(HiHiLo). Rats were forced to complete a 5-week endurance training program. All training sessions were performed at the same relative intensity under normoxic(P=632mmHg, simulating about 1500m altitude) or hypoxic conditions(P=493mmHg, simulating 3500m altitude) for each of the five groups, respectively. Mitochondria were isolated with differential centrifugation. Spectrophotometric analysis was applied to evaluate RCC (Ⅰ- Ⅲ) activities in brain mitochondria. Results Compared with the LoLo, brain RCC activities in C Ⅱ in rats from LoHi significantly decrease(P<0.05). Brain RCC activities in C Ⅲ in rats from HiHi, HiLo and LoHi significantly decrease and from HiHiLo significantly increase (P<0.01). Conclusion These findings suggest that among different altitude training modes, HiHiLo is the superior one in developing function of mitochondria respiratory chain of rat brain tissues.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the impact of environment and message information for the treatment efficacy of children with allergic rhinitis (AR).
METHOD:
To choose 100 cases of children diagnosed with AR. The parents of children record daily symptom scores of AR of children everyday. While the doctors send the short message to the parents by using meteorological environment warning forecast technology to tell the parents the risk of AR attacks. We observe the morbidity of AR of the children and the treatment efficacy of children for 1 year. The 100 cases control group children diagnosed AR, their parents do not record daily symptom scores of AR and the doctors do not give the short message. We also observe the morbidity of AR of the control group children and the treatment efficacy of the children for 1 year.
RESULT:
The 100 cases intervention group children with AR, there are 11 cases refused to participate the group. We included a total 89 cases, 74 cases of children did a full year of intervention, 15 cases of children gave up. The control group 100 cases, nine cases refused to participate, 91 cases were included. The average episodes in the intervention group was 4. 67 times, the control group was 8. 12 times,--there were significant differences between the groups statistically. The execution rate on the prescribed clinic date in the intervention group visits was 91. 5%, while in the control. group, was only 67%. The compliance of parents of children to complete course of medication in the intervention group was 95. 6%, while the control group was 74.1%. Both sets of data are statistically significant differences. The children with sinusitis in intervention group was 26.97%, significantly lower than the 64.04% in the control group. The incidence in the intervention group and the control group of secretory otitis media was 8.99% and 6.60%, there was no statistically significant differences.
CONCLUSION
It can significantly increase the degree of attention of parents of children with AR that the parents of children record daily symptom scores of AR of children everyday, while the doctors send the short message to the parents by using meteorological environment warning forecast technology to tell the parents the risk of AR attacks. It can also improve the execution rate on the prescribed clinic date and improve compliance of parents of children to complete course of medication. It can significantly reduce seizure frequency and severity of episodes of AR, thereby improving the quality of life of children with AR, reduce the economic burden on families and society.

Objective To screen human anti-hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1? scFv of lung adenocarcinoma from large phage antibody library and identify the positive clones. Methods Panning of large phage antibody library against lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 and HIF-1? was conducted respectively to select specific antibodies. E. coli HB2151 was infected to induce the expression of soluble scFv. The binding activity and specificity were tested by ELISA and immunocytochemical assay. The expression and relative molecular weight of the soluble scFv was detected by SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis. Results After panning,the target scFv was enriched,and ELISA results showed that positive reactions to HIF-1? were detected in 5 of 10 random clones with a positive ratio of 50%. Immunocytochemical analysis showed the specific affinity of the antibodies to A549 cells. The soluble human anti-HIF-1? scFv fragments of lung adenocarcinoma were expressed in E. coli HB2151 and then confirmed by SDS-PAGE. The result of Western blotting showed that the relative molecular weight of the soluble scFv was about 30?103. The binding activity and specificity were confirmed by ELISA. Conclusion Human anti-HIF-1? scFv of lung adenocarcinoma is successfully obtained with large phage antibody library technique.
