Objective To compare cardiovascular responses of intubations by Discopo and Macintosh laryngoscope in elderly patients with hypertension. Methods Sixty elderly hypertensive patients with ASAⅡ~Ⅲundergoing elective surgery were equally randomized into two groups. After induction of general anesthesia , orotracheal intubation was performed with Discopo or Macintosh. The Mean arterial pressure (MBP) and heart rate (HR), as while as Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), were recorded before (baseline values) and at 1,3,5 minutes after intubation(post-induction values). The rate of one-time successive intubation,intubation time and complication were also recorded. Results Compared with the macintosh group, the rate of one-time successive intubation was higher and the intubation time was shorter in the Discopo group (P< 0.05, respectively),with no complications. Compared with T0,MBP and HR at T2 in the two groups and T3 in the Macintosh group increased significantly (P < 0.05). Compared with the Macintosh group,MBP and HR at T2,T3 of the Discopo group decreased significantly (P < 0.05). Conclusion Little effect of tracheal intubation with Discopo on cardiovascular response was observed in elderly hypertensive patients.

Hypertension is a global problem,affecting both developed and developing nations. The mor-bidity of hypertension in children and adolescents has increased year by year in recent years. Hypertension in children can cause target organ damages(mainly renal,cardiovascular,central neurological,or optic fundal). In clinical practice,we need to find simple and easy methods for early recognition of target organ damages,thus se-rious consequences in adult hypertension may be prevented.

OBJECTIVE: To introduce and analyze the present status of research on decomposed recipes of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). METHODS: The relevant literature on the study of the decomposed recipes of TCM in the past five years was collected and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Studies on the decomposed recipes of TCM have been made from the whole body level to the organ, cell and molecular research level. The pharmacological research in vitro is the main way and quantitative changes of the chemical ingredients have been measured before and after composition. It is very important to combine the modern science and technology in exploring the composing mechanisms of TCM remedies.

To study the influences of the demographic evolution to government expenditure on health by using the method of generalized method of moment(GMM)by dynamic panel data of 31 provinces or cities from 1998 to 2011. The result showed that the elderly dependency ratio had a significant positive impact on government health expenditure, while the reduction of child dependency ratio would increase it. There were clear differences among regions. The elderly and child dependency ratio were both significantly positive for the eastern region, no significant effect for the central, and positive and negative respectively for the western. Therefore, it is needed to further improve the proportion of government health spending in total health expenditure, increase transfer payment, reduce regional differences and achieve the equalization of basic public health services.

Objective To investigate the dissolution rates of glibenclamide and metformin in compound metformin hydrochloride. Methods The concentrations of the glibenclamide and metformin were determined by HPLC method. The rotating basket method was used to measure and compare the dissolution rates of glibenclamide and metformin between the compound metformin hydrochloride and conventional tablets. Results The dissolution rates of glibenclamide and metformin with different preparation came up to the standard of CHP (2005), but the dissolution parameters were different. Conclusion The dissolution rate of glibenclamide indicated significant difference between the compound metformin hydrochloride and the conventional tablets, and no significant difference for metformin.

BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from adult bone marrow can alter alloimmune response in vitro and vivo. Their potentiality is great in solid organ transplantation.OBJECTIVE: To develop MSC antirejection therapy and identify behind mechanishm of MSCs immunomodulation ability. METHODS: We searched Pubmed (1994-Mar.2009) with the key words of "mesenchymal stem cells, solid organ transplantation, tolerance, immunosuppression, animal model". RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Totally 262 English articles about influence and mechanism of action of adult bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on solid organ transplantation were collected. The 49 suitable articles were included without earlier publication time, repeated and analogous study. Human mesenchymal stem cells did not express MHC2 Ⅱ antigen and T cell costimulatory molecules B7. Coculture with allogenic T lymphocytes could not induce T cell proliferation, but inhibited mixed lymphocyte reaction and mitogenstimulated T cell proliferation. Inhibitory effects of mesenchymal stem cells on T cell proliferation were not limited by major histocompatibility complex. Mesenchymal stem cells no matter from donors or recipients had similar immunoloregulation effects. Allogene mesenchymal stem cells could cause immunereaction in vivo, no complete immune privilege. The in vivo effects of mesenchymal stem cells will strongly depend on their localization and migration pattern after injection. Therefore, MSCs are interesting candidate cells for tolerance induction in clinical organ transplantation.

Objective To analyze the cause of lower limbs swelling after knee arthroscopy operation, and compare the effect of gravity and pump irrigation system on lower limbs swelling after operation. Methods 60 patients after knee arthroscopic surgery were divided into the pump irrigation group and the gravity group with 30 patients in each group. We measured the perimeter of the lower limb pre and post operation and compared the operation time of each group. Results There were no significant differences in the perimeter of the lower limb and operation time between the gravity group and the pump irrigation group. Conclusions During knee arthroscopic surgery which cost less than 1 hour, there was no inlluence on lower limbs swelling whether using gravity or pump irrigation system.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of trimetazidine in short-term treatment for dilated cardiomyopathy accompanied by heart failure. Methods Sixty seven cases of dilated cardiomyopathy patients with heart failure were recruited and divided into two groups randomly,the control group(n = 33) had conventional therapy and the treatment group (n = 34) had conventional therapy plus oral tid 20 mg trimetazidine administration for 3 months. Results The heart function improved significantly in both groups. The overall effective rate was significantly lower in the control group than the treatment group(69. 7% vs. 88.2%,P ＜ 0. 05). In the treatment group, before treating the left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), stroke volume (SV), cardiac output per minute (CO), 6 min walk test(6-MWT), were(28.7 ± 13. 6) %,(31.0 ± 8. 7) ml,(3. 10 ± 0. 49) L/min,(138.0 ± 30. 4) m respectively, and after treazing these indices were(38. 5 ± 9. 7) %,(48. 5 ± 6. 8) ml, (4. 90 ± 0. 98) L/min,(350. 0 ± 20. 4) m respectively, which increased significantly after treatment(Ps ＜0. 05). However,in the treatment group ,before treatment left ventricular. End-systolic dimension (LVESD), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were (68. 0 ± 8. 0)mm,(70. 0 ± 7. 8) mm,(669. 0 ± 71.4) μg/L respectively, whereas after treatment these indices were(59. 0 ± 6. 7) mm,(68.0 ± 7. 9) μg/L,(340. 0 ± 56. 0) μg/L respectively, which decreased significantly after treatment(Ps ＜ 0. 05). In the control group, before treatment LVEF, SV, CO, 6-M WT were(28. 5 ±13.9) %,(30. 0 ± 9. 9) ml,(3.00 ± 0. 48) L/min,(130. 0 ± 28. 6) m respectively, whereas after treating these indices were(34. 0 ± 8. 5) %,(34. 0±11.0) ml,(3. 90 ± 0. 56) L/min,(254. 0 ± 30. 0) m, respectively,which increased significantly after treatment(Ps ＜ 0. 05). While in the control group, before treatment LVESD,LVEDD and BNP were (67.0 ± 9. 0) mm, (70. 0 ± 8.0) mm,(666. 0 ± 70. 8) μg/L respectively, whereas after treatment these indices were(60. 0 ± 5. 5) mm,(66. 0 ± 5.7) mm,(350. 0 ± 55.3) μg/L respectively, which decreased significantly after treatment (Ps ＜ 0. 05). Moreever, the improvement of these indices in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (Ps ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion The additional administration of trimetazidine to conventional anti-failure treatment can significantly improve the heart function in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy,which is worth to be generalized clinically.
