Objective To investigate the clinical value of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in patients with a-cute severe asthma(ASA). Methods 32 patients with ASA treated with LIMA or mouth-nose mask during 2002 -2009 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Those treated with laryngeal mask airway was taken as observation group and those with Mouth-nose mask as control group. Results The period to oxygen saturation in arterial blood, the time to remove ventilator, and the time to disease improvement in the observation group (389.63±32.82)s, (19.31±2.26) hours,(16.22±3.85) hours were different from that in control group (467.36±41.15) s, (25.18±3.73) hours,(23.66±2.38) hours (P<0.01). After non-invasive positive pressure ventilation, PaCO_2 decreased, PaO_2 and pH increased at 3 and 12 hours in the observation group (P<0.05 or 0.01) from that before treatment. PaCO_2 and pH at 3 hours in the control group were no significant difference before and after treatment (P > 0.05),with an exception of PaO_2 (P < 0.05). PaCO_2, PaO_2 and pH were significantly different (P < 0.05) at 12 hours after treatment from those before treatment. Conclusions LMA should be considered in the selection of non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV) in patients with ASA, for a better improvement of ventilation ef-fectivenoss and accelerating the mitigation of clinical manifestations.

Objective To research etomidate or propofol in the whole intubation during the induction of elderly coronary heart disease autonomic nervous system function. Methods Ninety patients undergoing abdominal surgery patients with coronary heart disease were randomly divided into etomidate group (E group, 45 cases) and propofol group (P group, 45 cases). In pre-anesthesia, after the induction of anesthesia and after intubatiou with power spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRPSA) observed in patients with heart rate variability (HRV) changes. Results After the induction of anesthesia, the low frequency(LF)[(316±301) ms2/Hz] end total power(TP)[(756±535) ms2/Hz] decreased significantly in E group(P<0.05) and LF, high frequency (HF), LF/HF ratio(LF/HF)and TP decreased significantly in P group [ (187±168) ms2/Hz, (89±48)ms2/Hz, 2.3±1.6 and (616±462) ms2/Hz] (P<0.05). The duction degree of LF, HF, TP and LF/HF in E group was more significant than that in P group (P<0.05). After intubation, LF, HF, LF/HF and TP increased significantly in both groups and no significant difference of HRV was observed between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Propofol decreases the activity of autonomic nervous system, wherea etomidate produces minimal changes under anesthesia induction in elderly coronary heart disease patients.There is no remarkable difference in cardiovasological changes induced by etomidate and propofol during tracheal intubation.

The antifungal mechanism of the TS67(Penicillum sp.) producing bioactive metabolites was investigated in this paper. The test indicated that mycelia growth, spores forming and spores germination of Bipolaris maydis and Fusarium oxysporum can be inhibitied by metabolites, after 50% fermentation broth acting 120 hours, the inhibition rate of hyphal growth can reach about 77.78%, 70.30%, the inhibition rate of spores forming also arrived at 58.8%, 73.5%; under 50% fermentation broth acting 12 hours, the inhibition rate of spores germination were up to 78.3%, 62.0%, the mycelia under activity metabolites conditoins also showed surface nodulation and growing point expanding irregularly, protoplasmic condesing, etc. Based on all these results, we may draw a conclusion that activity metabolites maybe target at fungal cell wall.

After testing the resistance of Streptomycin to the strain NS-41-80 which is the Meilingmycin producer- Streptomyces nanchangensis , a lot of streptomycin-resistant ( str ) mutants were screened after the spores regenerated on the lethal media when they were treated with 4 different dosage of super-mutagent EMS. We have abtained the high-yield strain 80-5. 11-221 from these str mutants which only produces Meilingmycin and no Nanchangmycin in the rotation-flask experiments. The productivity of 80-5. 11-221 is 1521?g/mL 77. 9% higher than CK's 855?g/mL. After the shake flask fermentation experiment of 80-5. 11-221 for six generations, the productivity of F 2 and F 3 is stable and the productivity of F 4?F 5?F 6 decreases hastily with the increment of generations. It was showed that the chemical-resistance mutation of the strains had closely relation with yield mutation and the EMS dosage of the yield mutation was higher than the resistance-chemical mutation's through the statistical analysis between the dosage of mutation and the chemical-resistance mutational frequency?the variate capacity of the mutants' yield. A model of the resistance-chemical mutational labelling rational selection of the strain producing Meilingmycin was established.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and treatment of Caroli′s disease in children.Methods The clinical data,laboratory examination and radiological feature of 8 children with Caroli′s disease between Feb.1998 and Dec.2007 were analyzed retrospectively.All children underwent CT and abdominal ultrasonogram.Results Five cases of the 8 children were male and 3 cases were female.The mean age was 6.3 years old.The cases′ history were from 5 days to 4 months.The clinical symptoms showed that 3 cases had hematemesis,5 cases had hepatosplenomegaly,and 1 case had fever and turbid urine.Of the total 8 cases,5 cases were hepatic fibrosis and liver cirrhosis and hepatosplenomegaly,3 cases were portal hypertension,and 1 case had cholangitis.The other 3 cases were simple types.One case had infantile polycystic kidney disease.Laboratory analysis revealed 2 cases had dysfunction of liver and 1 dysfunction of renal.The imaging characteristics showed multiplied irregular dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts in enlarged liver,with central dot sign on CT scan.One case presented enlarged gastroesophageal vein.The 8 cases undertook conservative treatment,with no surgery.Conclusions The symptoms of Caroli′s disease are highly variable.Caroli′s disease should be focused especially on children with abdominal pain and hepatomegaly.CT is important for diagnosis of Caroli′s disease at earlier stage.The disease can be conservatively treated,and(or) surgically operated.

Objective To observe the effects of soybean,selenium and spirulina on hemoglobin(Hb)of rats intoxicated with fluorine and aluminiums.Methods According to body weight,84 SD rats were randomly divided into control group,high aluminum group,high fluorine group,high fluorine-aluminum group,high fluorine-aluminium intoxicated rats strengthened with soybean group,high fluorine-aluminium intoxicated rats strengthened with selenium group and high fluorine-aluminium intoxicated rats strengthened with spirulina group,12 in each group.Rats in the control group and the high aluminum group were fed with feed containing 5.2 mg/kg of fluorine and 6.8 mg/kg of aluminum.In other groups,fluorine wag 106 mg/Kg and aluminum 19.7 mg/kg.Fluorine and aluminum concentration in the drinking water of the control group and the high fluorine group were 0.69 mg/L and 0.20 mg/L,respectively.In other groups' drinking water,these values were 0.69 mg/L and 90.2 mg/L,respectively.Ninety days later,Hb concentration of the whole blood was tested.Results Hb concentration of the control group,the high aluminum group,the high fluorine group,and the high fluorine-aluminum group were (160.8±6.3),(142.2±15.9),(156.1±4.9)and(145.2±6.2)g/L,respectively.Fluorine had an effect on the concentration of Hb(F=29.56,P<0.05).The Hb concentration of the high fluorine-aluminum group,the strengthened with soybean group,the strengthened with selenium group and the strengthened with Spirulina group were(145.2±6.2),(150.7±17.7),(156.8±14.5),(154.5±17.8)g/L,respectively.Though the concentration of Hb had increased,there was no significant difference between the four groups(χ2=3.304,P>0.05).Conclusions High-dose fluorine could cause varied decrease in the concentration of Hb.However,aluminum has neitherantagonistic effect nor synergistic effect on the Hb of fluorotic Rat.Soybean,selenium and Spirulina show a trend to increase fluorotic rat's Hb,but they has no evident antagonistic effect.
