Objective To investigate effect of lipid emulsion on cardiac arrest induced by bupivacain intoxication.Methods Forty SD rats were randomly devided into 2 groups.Group A applied epinephrine (n=20);Group L applied lipid emulsion combinding epinephring(n=20).The rats were administered Lupivacaine 20 mg/kg.Cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) was started. Epinephrine 10 μg/kg were repeated three times followed by epinephrine 10 μg/kg every 5 minutes.Normal saline 5 ml/kg and 1 ml·kg-1·min-1 were administered in group A.20% Lipid emulsion 5 ml/kg and 0.25 ml·kg-1·min-1 were administered in group L.Heart rate,blood pressure, temperature were monitored.Blood gas analysiswere checked at 5 min,30 min after restoration of spontaneous circulation(ROSC).To record the number of successful CPR,time of ROSC and epinephrine dose.Results 11 rats(55%) and 16 rats(80%) were successful resuscitated.The success rate was higher in group L than in group A.Epinephrine dose was higher in group A than in group L.There was no difference in heart rate between the two groups.Systolic blood pressure and PaO2 was higher in group L than in group A(P<0.05).Conclusion There was better effect in lipid emulsion combined epinephrine than soly epinephrine when applied in cardiac arrest induced by bupivacaine intoxication.

OBJECTIVETo observe the therapeutic effect of Kangyi Zhongyu Decoction (KZD) combined with gonadotropin releasing hormone-a (GnRH-a) on infertile patients with severe endometriosis.

METHODSSeventy-five infertile patients with the diagnosis of endometriosis confirmed by laparoscope who were scheduled to receive in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) were randomly assigned to three groups, they were treated respectively with KZD (A), GnRH-a (B) alone and combined of both (C), and IVF-ET were applied in the patients after 3 months of treatment. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions in the three groups were observed and the changes of serum cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and endometrial antibody (EMAb) levels before and after treatment were tested.

RESULTSScore of dyspareunia in Group A and C was obvioushy lower than that in Group B after treatment (P <0.01). Pregnancy rate in Group C was higher than that in Group A and B (P <0.05), with the adverse reactions less than in Group B (P <0.01). The positive rate of plasma EMAb was reduced obviously after treatment in Group C with the level lower than that in the other two groups (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe combined use of KZD and GnRH-a is a new method in treating infertile patients with severe endometriosis with ideal effectiveness and fewer adverse reactions, and it could advance the successful rate of reproductive assistant technique.

Objective To analyze the risk of re-emergence of Oncomelania snail(O.snail) from 2015 to 2019, in order to improve the effectiveness of snail control. Methods Collection of report forms and schistosomiasis surveillance data was carried out from 2015 to 2019, and analyzed retrospectively. Results The area of snail-emergence was 6 241.98 hm² during 2015-2019, 44.29、4 610.18、813.92、446.09 and 327.50 hm² respectively, for each corresponding year.Among the re-emergence areas, flat-ground subtype was 1 185.49 hm²(18.99%), hilly subtype was 2 536.58 hm²(40.64%), and mountain subtype was 2 519.91 hm²(40.37%).The top 5 cities with O.snail re-emergence areas were Liangshanzhou(2016), Ya′an(2016), Deyang(2016), Meishan(2016), and Meishan(2017).The top 5 disticts with O.snail re-emergence areas were Renshou, Puge, Lushan, Tianquan and Dechang. Conclusion The re-emergence of O.snail attributes to several factors, such as low quality of annual snail survey, unitary method of elimination and complexity of snail habit environment.Surveillance and supervision on the sources of infection and snail spreading should continue with exploration of new method in eliminating snails especially in hilly regions.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the mechanism of demethylation therapy of leukemia by 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-CdR).

METHODSBy using MTT test, NBT reduction reaction and DNA agarose gel electrophoresis, changes in proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis were observed in K562, HL-60 and fresh leukemia cells after treated with 5-aza-CdR. The mRNA expressions of DNMTs, p15, p53 and bcl-2 were measured by RT-PCR. The status of p15(INK4B) gene methylation was examined by methylation-specific PCR (MSP-PCR).

RESULTSThe growth inhibition of K562, HL-60 and fresh leukemia cells displayed a dose and time-dependent manner after treated by 5-aza-CdR. The differentiation-inducing ability on HL-60 cells was obvious at 0.5 micromol/L of 5-aza-CdR. The up-regulation of p15 mRNA and p53 mRNA expression and down-regulation of bcl-2 mRNA expression were obvious as compared with the control, but the DNMTs expression was not significantly different from the control. The methylation status of p15 gene in fresh leukemia cells decreased gradually with increasing concentration of 5-aza-CdR.

CONCLUSIONThe proliferation of leukemia cells was obviously inhibited by 5-aza-CdR, its mechanism maybe related to the up-regulation of p15 and p53 genes and down-regulation of bcl-2 gene. The decrease of p15 gene methylation was associated with the competitive inhibition of 5-aza-CdR.

BACKGROUNDMonilethrix is an autosomal dominant hair disorder characterized clinically by alopecia and follicular papules. In this study, we collected a Han monilethrix family to detect the mutations in patients and investigated the correlation between the genotype and phenotype of monilethrix.

METHODSIn this study, we identified a Chinese family with monilethrix through light microscopic and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) examination. Genomic DNA from peripheral blood samples was prepared. DNA samples from controls and monilethrix patients were subject to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. Two pairs of primers were used to amplify the seventh exon of KRT86. Mutation screening of the PCR products was detected using direct sequencing.

RESULTSLight microscopic examination showed a regular alternate enlargement and narrow area. SEM examination showed that part of the cuticle of the nodules shed and disappeared gradually in the narrow area with granular protrusions on the surface similar to the erosion-like structure. Parallel longitudinal ridge and groovepattern appeared, and the ridges varied in width, like dead wood. A heterozygous transversion mutation c.1204G > A (p.E402K) in the seventh exon of KRT86 was identified in both patients.

CONCLUSIONSThe mutation of extron 7 of KRT86 identified plays a major role in the pathogenesis of this pedigree with monilethrix, and is a mutation hot spot of KRT86. Further research is needed to explore the relationship between the phenotype and the mutation of the type II hair keratin gene KRT86 of monilethrix.
