Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine pretreatment on lung injury for patients after liver surgery. Meth-ods Sixty patients who had liver surgery in our hospital from August 2009 to February 2014 were equally divided into the treatment group and the control group, with 30 patients in each group. Both of the two groups were given one-lung ventilation anesthesia. Patients in the treatment group were given continuous intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine after induction of anesthesia while paitents in the control group were not. In the time of before induction of anesthesia (T0), closed chest (T1), immediately after surgery (T2), all patients were given the gas analysis, expression of inflammatory cytokines and lung function testing and analysis. Results The diastolic blood pressure and heart rate at time points of T0, T1 and T2 in the two groups showed no significant difference (P> 0. 05). And the expression of TNF-αand SP-D at time points of T1 and T2 in the two groups were significantly higher than those at T0 (P<0. 05);while the expression of TNF-αand SP-D in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group at time points of T1 and T2 (P<0. 05). The plateau air-way pressure and airway resistance in the treatment group at T2 and T3 were significantly lower than that at T1 (P<0. 05), and there were statistically significant differences compared with the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion The dexmedetomidine pretreatment for the liver surgery patients can inhibit the inflammatory response, while improve lung airway plateau pressure and airway resistance. It has no significant effect for blood, so it can play a protective role for lung function.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of intestinal flora in infants with different feeding patterns.Methods Sixty-two cases of health infants(30-120 d)were divided into 4 groups according to their feeding patterns:breast feeding,imported powder milk feeding,domestic powder milk feeding and mixed feeding.Samples of their fresh feces in each group were collected and divided into sections equally:the bifidobacteria were isolated in anaerobic box and the number was counted for one section;for the other section,total DNA of intestinal flora was extracted and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC) fingerprints were amplified with the method of ERIC-PCR.After that,the specific bands observed in different groups were cloned and sequenced and alignmented.Results The colonies of bifidobacteria were more in breast feeding and mixed feeding groups[(9.10 ± 1.33) cfu/g;(8.62 ± 1.35) cfu/g]than those in domestic powder milk feeding and imported powder milk feeding groups[(7.62 ± 1.22) cfu/g;(7.32 ± 0.80) cfu/g,t =3.23,P ＜ 0.05];while there was no significant difference between breast feeding and mixed feeding groups,and between 2 powder milk feeding groups.Two specific bands were found from the ERIC fingerprints (A:1 100 bp mainly in breast feeding,domestic powder milk feeding and mixed feeding groups;B:1 000 bp mainly in imported powder milk feeding group).Sequencing and analysis of Basic Local Alignment Search Tool showed that homologous bacteria of A and B fragments were bifidobacterium longum.The encoding protein of A fragments might be related to the enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism,and B fragments were related to the enzymes of protein metabolism.Conclusions The colonies of bifidobacteria in intestinal tract are more in breast feeding and mixed feeding infants than those in formula feeding groups.The distribution of intestinal flora in domestic powder milk feeding infants is more similar to that of the breast feeding infants.

Objective To investigate the effects of post-propofol anesthesia on cognitive function and hippocampus proteome expressions in aged rats.Methods Thirty healthy male Wistar rats aged 20 months were randomly divided into control group(n =15) and propofol group(n =15).The control group was injected with normal saline of 6 ml/kg intraperitoneally and propofol was injected intraperitoneally with propofol 60 mg/kg.The rats in both groups underwent Step-down Test to assess cognitive function at the first day and at the seventh day after the termination of drug administration.Five rats were decapitated randomly each time after the two step-down tests and their hippocampi were removed for two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometric analysis.Results In the step-down test,aged rats in the propofol group showed significantly learning impairment and decreased memory abilities at the 1st day after propofol anesthesia as compared with those in the control group.In learning phase of the 1st day,the latency of the propofol group is (29.5 ± 7.6)s as compared with(19.7 ± 7.0)s of the control group,while the error time is 3.6±1.2 vs.1.6 ±0.8 in the propofol group vs the control group,and the total time of electric shock is(65.2 t 10.6)s vs.(42.7 ± 10.3)s in the propofol group vs the control group(all P＜0.01).The latency of the memory phase in the propofol group is also decreased as compared with that in the control group(31.4±14.3)s vs.(111.2± 23.7) s,(P＜0.01).On the 7th day after anesthesia,there was no significant difference between the two groups.There were 17 differentially expressed proteins on the 1st day after propofol anesthesia,6 of them were up-regulated and 11 proteins were down-regulated (P ＜ 0.05).On the 7th day,there were 10 differentially expressed proteins,and the expression of 5 proteins was down-regulated (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Aging rats receiving propofol anesthesia show cognitive function decline,but do not show a long-term decline.The mechanism may be related to the different expressions of hippocampal proteins.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of sequential diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).Methods A case with sequential DLBCL after PTCL was reported,and the characteristics and responses of this case were analyzed.The previous literature was reviewed in order to explain the mechanism and prognosis of such type of disease.Results This patient was diagnosed as PTCL not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) definitely,but after a period of treatment,DLBCL was developed as a second tumor.The characteristics and onset interval were just similar to those described in the literature,in which the mechanisms were mentioned as common effects of tumor cell,microenviroment and therapies.This patient got effects through the initial treatment,but considering the poor outcome by former researchers,the prognosis needed to be closely followed up.Conclusion Sequential development of EBV-unrelated DLBCL after PTCL-NOS is very rare,and the mechanism,therapy and prognosis need further investigation.

Objective To investigate the impact of automatic tube voltage selection ( ATVS) and sinogram-affirmed iterative reconstruction ( SAFIRE) on image quality and radiation dose in the arterial phase (AP) and portal venous phase (PVP) abdominal dual-source CT imaging.Methods Abdomen contrast-enhanced computed tomography ( CECTs ) in 70 patients were scanned with dual-source CT.Patients were divided into study group and control group based on the scanning date.In the first 35 patients ( study group) , ATVS mode was applied; in the second 35 patients ( control group ) , the conventional fixed at 120 kVp mode was used.The imaging of the study group was reconstructed with FBP ( protocol A ) or SAFIRE ( protocol B ) respectively; the imaging of the control group was reconstructed with FBP ( protocol C).Image quality scores of the 3 protocols were assessed and compared with Rank-sum test.Analysis of variance was used to compare mean signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and image noise among the 3 protocols.Two sample t tests were used to compare the radiation dose difference.Results The effective radiation dose in the study group ( 3.9 ±0.4 ) mSv was much lower than that in the control group (4.9 ±0.4) mSv, dropped by 20.41% (t =2.315, P=0.021).The subjective rating scores in protocol A, B, C in arterial were (3.65 ±0.08), (4.41 ±0.10) and (3.79 ±0.10) point, while the subjective rating scores in venous phase were (3.57 ±0.08), (4.41 ±0.10) and (3.95 ±0.11) point.The differences were statistically significant (Z value were 27.587 and 27.436, P<0.01).The image noise of protocol A , B, C in dual-phase were ( 11.96 ±0.33 ) , ( 8.45 ±0.26 ) , ( 10.38 ±0.26 ) HU and (12.79 ±0.39),(9.14 ±0.36), (11.13 ±0.18) HU.The differences were statistically significant (F value were 39.235 and 29.846, P<0.01).Compared to protocol A and C, SNR and CNR in protocol B were much higher (P<0.01).No statistically significant differences were shown between protocol A and C in SNR and CNR ( P>0.05).Conclusion Use of ATVS and SAFIRE could reduce the radiation dose and provide better quality images compared with conventional abdominal CECT and FBP .

Objective To observe the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on the expressions of transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1), fibronectin(FN),and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in rats with diabetic nephropathy(DN), and to elucidate the protective mechanism played by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Methods DN models were estabolished by injecting streptozotoein ( STZ ) into male SD rats, which were divided into TGF-β1 overexpression group, TGF-β1 overexpression plus vitamin D3 group, TGF-β1 low-expression group, TGF-β1 low-expression plus vitamin D3 group, TGF-β1 normal-expression group, and TGF-β1 normal-expression plus vitamin D3 group. After 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment for 37 days, renal function and blood biochemical parameters were evaluated. The morphology and fibrosis of kidney tissues were observed. The expressions of TGF-β1, FN, and VEGF in kidney cortex were measured by immunohistochemistry, realtime PCR, and Western blotting. Results The levels of cholesterol, triglyceride, creatinine,plasma glucose, HbA1C , and 24 h urinary protein were lower in vitamin D3treated groups than those in corresponding control groups(P<0. 05). The degree of renal fibrosis was raised with the increased level of TGF-β1. Vitamin D3 treatment decreased the fibrosis in diabetic kidney. There were significant differences in the mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 in three control groups(P<0. 05). With the increased levels of TGF-β1, the expressions of FN and VEGF were increased. The expressions of TGF-β1, FN, and VEGF were lowered by vitamin D3compared with the corresponding control groups(P<0. 05). Conclusion 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 may protect the renal tissure in diabetic rats via inhibiting the expressions of TGF-β1, FN, and VEGF in the kidney.

The study found that the physician-patient trust crisis results from overreliance on technology trust instead of interpersonal trust and institutional trust. The alleged “Paternalistic government innovation”in healthcare service has caused wastes of healthcare resources and gap below public expectancy due to its incompetence in resolving social problems,further eroding institutional legality and intensifying such crisis.This research aimed to identify government accountabilities in building such trust from three aspects.

Objective To evaluate the effect of 15-deoxy-△12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) on endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in rats.Methods Forty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 3-5 months, weighing 220-250 g, were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table: control group (group C), 15d-PGJ2 group, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group, and LPS +15d-PGJ2 group.In group 15d-PGJ2, 15d-PGJ20.3 mg/kg was injected via the tail vein, while the equal volume of normal saline was given in group C.In LPS and LPS+15d-PGJ2 groups, ALI was produced with LPS 6 mg/kg injected through the tail vein, and then the equal volume of normal saline and 15d-PGJ2 0.3 mg/kg were injected, respectively.At 4 h after LPS injection, blood samples were drawn from the abdominal aorta for blood gas analysis, and arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) was recorded.The rats were then sacrificed, lungs were removed for microscopic examination, and for determination of wet/dry lung weight ratio (W/D ratio), TNF-α, IL-8 and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1 (CINC-1) contents (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) , and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65 and IκB-α expression (by Western blot).Results Compared with group C, no significant change was found in PaO2, W/D ratio, contents of TNF-α, IL-8 and CINC-1, and expression of NF-κB p65 and IκB-α in group 15d-PGJ2 (P＞0.05), and PaO2 was significantly decreased, W/D ratio and contents of TNF-α,IL-8 and CINC-1 were increased, the expression of NF-κB p65 was up-regulated, and the expression of IκB-α was down-regulated in LPS and LPS+ 15d-PGJ2 groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group LPS,PaO2 was significantly increased, W/D ratio and contents of TNF-α, IL-8 and CINC-1 were decreased, the expression of NF-κB p65 was down-regulated, and the expression of IκB-α was up-regulated (P＜0.05),and the pathological changes were attenuated in group LPS+ 15d-PGJ2.Conclusion 15d-PGJ2 can mitigate endotoxin-induced ALI in rats.

Objective To compare the differences between endoscopic resection and laparoscopy?assisted surgery or transanal endoscopic resection for rectal neuroendocrinal tumor. Methods Clinical data of patients who underwent endoscopic or surgical resection of neuroendocrinal tumor of less than 2 cm which were confirmed by pathology from December 2010 to November 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Twenty cases of endoscopic treatment, including 17 cases of ESD, 3 cases of EMR,were included in endoscopy group;while 18 cases treated with surgery were included in surgery group, among which 12 ca?ses underwent transanal endoscopic microsurgery and 6 cases laparoscopic resection. The mean lesion sizes were 7 mm(4?18 mm)and 8 mm(3?15 mm),respectively. Pathology showed there were 16 cases of grade G1 neurocrinal tumor and 2 G2 cases in surgical group. There was no lymphvascular invasion with clear margin in the endoscopy group,but three cases of lymphvascular invasion in surgical group. No treatment?related se?vere adverse event occurred in either group. The time for oral food intake was 2?0 d(1?4 d) in endoscopy group, while that in surgery group was 2?4 d(1?7 d)(P=0?295). The hospital stay was(6?80±2?12) d in endoscopy group and(8?59±2?85)d in surgery group, respectively(P=0?034). And the total hospitalization cost was 10 488(4 128?15 296) yuan and 15 590(3 024?40 503) yuan(P=0?031) in the two groups, re?spectively. The follow?up was 25 months(2?48 months)and no recurrence was found. Conclusion Endo?scopic resection, especially ESD, is a new approach to treat colorectal neuroendocrinal tumor,advantageous over surgery in shorter hospitalization time, minimal invasiveness, faster postoperative recovery, less compli? cation, and reduced hospitalization cost.

Objective To investigate the correct diagnosis and treatment of myeloid and lymophoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and the FIP1L1-PDGFR fusion gene. Methods A case of patient who was diagnosed as myeloid and lymophoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and the FIP1L1-PDGFR fusion gene was reported, and the literature was reviewed. Results The patient was diagnosed as typical T-lymphoblast lymphoma (T-LBL) by the lymph node pathologic diagnosis, while the diagnosis of myeloid and lymophoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and the FIP1L1-PDGFR fusion gene was made correctly by the whole examination and analysis. The patient acquired deep complete remission quickly after taking the low dose of imatinib. Conclusions Myeloid and lymophoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and the FIP1L1-PDGFR fusion gene are a rare hematologic tumor. Though pathological diagnosis is the golden standard for lymphoma, sometimes the other factors should be taken into consideration and make an overall analysis of clinical picture and a correct view of the pathological diagnosis, which could avoid the misdiagnosis and improper treatment.
