Objective To observe the influence of sodium phosphocreatine on the hemodynamics,human heart fatty acid binding protein (hFABP),cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) during perioperative period.Methods Forty patients (ASA grade Ⅱ to Ⅲ ) with extensive myocardial ischemia diagnosed by preoperative electrocardiogram were divided into two groups:sodium phosphocreatine group (group A) and control group (group B) with 20 cases each by random digits table. Both groups underwent routine preoperative preparation and group A were given sodium phosphocreatine 2 g/d till anesthesia induction immediately in the operation day. Hemodynamic parameters including mean artery pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),cardiac output (CO), stroke index (SI) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) were recorded respectively at 3 d before treatment (T0), anesthesia induction immediately before ( T1 ), tracheal intubation immediately after (T2),tracheal extubation immediately after (T3). And blood hFABP and cTnl levels were detected. Results Compared with group B, there was no significant difference in HR of group A at To to T3 (P > 0.05 ). MAP,CO, SI at T1 to T3 of group A were significantly higher than those of group B(P< 0.05 ) ;whereas PVR,blood hFABP and cTnI levels were lower than those of group B (P < 0.05 ). The incidence of arrhythmogenesis of group A [20%(4/20)] was lower than that of group B [45%(9/20)](P<0.05). Conclusion Sodium phosphocreatine has good protective effect on the myocardium in the patients with myocardial ischemia during perioperative period.

BACKGROUND: Bacterial cellulose, a new nanometer biomaterial, benefits the growth of skin tissue and limits the infection. It may provide advantageous conditions for the biomaterials dressing and temporary skin in the burnt patients and chronic ulcer patients. OBJECTIVE: To study the possibility of bacterial cellulose in the treatment of deep second-degree burn in rats. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: An observational experiment was perforemd at the Central Laboratory of Sixth People's Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University from June to November 2008. MATERIALS: M12 was used to produce non-soluble gel membrane when it was cultured for 6 days at a constant temperature of 30℃, and then the sample was boiled for 20 minutes in 0.1 mol/L NaOH solution. Ivory semitransparent bacterial cellulose was obtained following the removals of thallus in liquid membrane and residual culture medium. METHODS: Skin burn in a size of 2.0 cm×2.0 cm was made in bilateral sides of spinal cord on back with self-made wound meter. One side was treated with bacterial cellulose dressing and sutured, taking as experimental side. While the other side served as control side without dressing. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: At days 4, 7, 14, 21 and 28 after operation, the healing rate of skin burn in rats was calculated, and the skin wound and healing were observed under light microscope. RESULTS: All animals were alive normally without the presence of wound infection. Compared with control side, the wound healing rate of treated side significantly improved at day 21 after operation; there was no significant difference between the treated side and control side at other time points (P < 0.01). The histological results indicated that the pathological lesion and healing had no significant differences between the two sides. CONCLUSION: Bacterial cellulose can promote the healing of skin burn wound to a certain degree.

Objective To investigate the difference of the morbidity rate of hypertension among patients with sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) in different stages, and the change in the blood levels of some vasoactive substances and their correlations with severity of SAS, in order to further explore the mechanism of hypertension caused by SAS. Methods 63 patients suspected to suffer from SAS were enrolled, and they were divided into normal, mild, moderate, and severe SAS groups according to respiratory disorder index (RDI) obtained by polysomnography (PSG) monitoring. The diagnosis of hypertension was made by the measurement of blood pressure and 24-hour dynamic measurement of blood pressure. Blood levels of angiotesnin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ), endothelin-1 (ET-1), throboxane B2 (TXB2), calcium gene related protein (CGRP), 6-keto-protagladin factor1?(6-keto-PGF1?) were determined with radioimmunoassay. Results The mobidity rate of hypertension was significantly higher in moderate and severe SAS group than that in the normal group (P0.05). Correlative analysis showed that the blood levels of Ang Ⅱ, ET-1, TXB2 were positively correlative to RDI (r=0.594, 0.523, 0.574, respectively, P0.05). Conclusion SAS is significantly related to the incidence of hypertension. Vasoactive substances with vasoconstrictive effect such as Ang Ⅱ, ET-1, TXB2 play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of hypertension in SAS patients than those with vasodilative effect such as CGRP and 6-keto-PGF1?.

OBJECTIVE:To improve the rational and scientific drug purchase quantity planned by hospital pharmacy. METH-ODS:The deficiency in present drug purchase module of hospital information system(HIS)was analyzed;the formula of planned purchase quantity was improved by incremental coefficient method,ABC analysis method and VEN analysis method. The high and low stored values and packaging volume were set to adjust planned drug purchase quantity. Based on the computer program,a one-key-getting procedure was quasi established,and five typical drugs were selected for simulation. RESULTS:Based on previous formula,the parameters representing change trend,incremental coefficient k1 and inventory coefficient k2 were added in new formu-la. The one-key-getting procedure could calculate the quantity of all drugs by simply entering the planning cycle N1 and the safe peri-od N2 of the some category drugs into the system. After simulated operation practice,compared with pre-improvement,the occupa-tion of funds was significantly decreased and the quantity of drug was rounded off according to package in post-improvement. CON-CLUSIONS:Through function improvement of drug purchase module in HIS and the quasi establishment of one-key-getting pur-chase mode,planned drug purchase quantity is more reasonable,scientific and accurate. It ensures the clinical drug supply in time without causing a backlog,and effectively reduces the cost of manpower,material and capital.

Objective: To investigate the effects and mechanism of microscrew implant anchorage (MIA) in speeding up the closure of extraction space by one step and retraction of anterior teeth. Methods: Twenty-three patients with teeth extraction and required strong posterior anchorage were treated with MIA to close the extraction space. The extraction spaces were closed by two methods respectively. The extraction spaces were closed by the method of one step and retraction of anterior teeth(Ni-Ti spring from MIA to the hook on the wire combined with the elastic pull from MIA to cuspid) on the experiment sides and by the traditional one step method(Ni-Ti spring from MIA to the hook on the wire alone) on the control sides. Which side treated as trial side or control side was selected at random. The period of the space closing, the way and position of anterior teeth movement were observed on each side and the period of the space closing of two sides were tested by paired t test. Results: ①The average period of the spaces closing which was (6.69±1.07) months on the trial side and (9.56±1.19) months on the control side was significantly different (P<0.05).② After the closure of extraction spaces, the cuspid achived better position on the trial side than the contral side on which cuspid presented distal-lingual rotation. Conclusion: The extraction spaces can be closed in all cases by two methods respectively. Using MIA to close the extraction space by one step and retraction of anterior teeth can not only shorten the period of space closing but also achieve nice outcome by moving the cuspid in spongy bone.
