Objective To study the prevalence of dilated cardiomyopathy and the quasi-latent Keshan disease in villages of non-endemic areas of six Keshan disease endemic provinces in China,and to provide reference values for proposing a elimination standard of keshan disease.Methods County,township and village was selected as the study area by using multi-stage sampling in non-Keshan disease areas of Sichuan,Shanxi,Henan,Shandong and in Keshan disease areas of Chongqing and Yunnan.In each county two townships were selected and in each township one village was chosen.The residents of the villages sampled were surveyed by questionnaire,physical examination,electrocardiogram (ECG) and cardiac echocardiography.Suspected dilated cardiomyopathy patients had chest X-ray.Dilated cardiomyopathy patients were diagnosed according to the criteria proposed by 2006 World Health Organization/International Society and Federation of Cardiology (WHO/ISFC).Results The number of investigated villages was 126 and 54 139 people were surveyed by questionnaire and clinical examination.Ten patients with dilated cardiomyopathy were found,the prevalence was 18.47/100 000(10/54 139),and its 95％ confidence interval was 18.11/100 000-18.84/100 000.A total of 197 patients with quasi-latent Keshan disease were found,the prevalence was 363.88/100 000 (197/54 139),and its 95％ confidence interval was 362.27/100 000-365.49/ 100 000.The prevalence of male quasi-latent Keshan disease was 353.34/100 000(83/23 490) and of female was 372.07/100 000(114/30 639).The number of subjects with normal and abnormal ECG was 45 222 and 8917,respectively,and the rate of abnormal ECG was 16.47％.The highest rate of abnormal ECG was 38.28％ (1585/4141) in Chongqing.The lowest rate of abnormal ECG was 8.10％ (1175/14 507) in Yunnan.The highest detection rate of T wave and ST segment changes was 4.67％ (2528/54 139).In abnormal ECG indices,the detection rate of Henan,Shandong and Chongqing was higher,and all of them were higher than 10.0％.Conclusions We suggest that the reference baselines of dilated cardiomyopathy and quasi-latent Keshan disease in Keshan disease areas of the six provinces in the south of China be 18.47/100 000 and 363.88/100 000,respectively.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of anesthesia with different doses of dexmedetomidine combined with propofol and remifentanil in patients undergoing abdominal surgery.Methods Ninety ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes,aged 18-64 yr,weighing 45-80 kg,undergoing abdominal surgery,were randomly assigned into 3 groups ( n =30 each):control group (group C ),dexmedetomidine 0.25 μg· kg-1 · h-1 group ( group D1 ) and dexmedetomidine 0.50 μg· kg-1·h-1 group (group D2 ).Dexmedetomidine was infused at a rate of 0.25 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 and 0.50 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 in groups D1 and D2 respectively until extubation after a loading dose of 0.5 μg/kg over 15 min.In group C,normal saline was infused intravenously at a rate of 10 ml/h.Anesthesia was induced with TCI of propofol with the target plasma concentration (Cp) of 1.0 μg/ml,iv injection of cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg and TCI of remifentanil with Cp of 3 ng/ml.The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated.PETCO2 was maintained 35-40 mm Hg and SpO2 was maintained ≥95％.Anesthesia was maintained with TCI of remifentanil with the target Cp of 5 ng/ml,iv infusion of cisatracurium 0.1 mg· kg-1 · h-1 and TCI of propofol.The target Cp of propofol was increased to maintain Narcotrend index of 37-46.The amount of remifentanil,cisatracurium and propofol consumed,extubation time and eye-opening time,complications during operation and during recovery from anesthesia were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the amount of remifentanil and cisatracurium consumed and extubation time among the three groups ( P ＞ 0.05).Compared with group C,the eye-opening time was significantly prolonged,the incidence of hypertension and tachycardia during operation,and restlessness,vomitting,hypertension,and tachycardia during recovery from anesthesia was significantly decreased in groups D1 and D2,and the amount of propofol consumed was significantly decreased in group D2 (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group D1,the eye-opening time was significantly prolonged,the incidence of hypertension during operation,and restlessness,hypertension,and tachycardia during recovery from anesthesia was significantly decreased in group D2 ( P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion When combined with propofol and remifentanil,dexmedetomidine infused at a rate of 0.50 μg·kg-1 · h-1 can provide satisfactory efficacy for abdominal surgery.

To study the potential effect of Dioscorea nipponica(DN) in intervening peripheral system of rats based on metabolomic analysis. The identification of the potential intervention targets of DN in peripheral system may facilitate its safe application and therapeutic potential exploitation. Totally 20 male SD rats were randomly divided into the blank group and the DN-treated groups, with 10 rates in each group. The DN-treated group was orally administrated with DN extracts once a day for 5 days, with the dose of 80 mg x kg(-1) (equivalent to 15 g crude drug in human), and the blank group was given equal volume of saline once a day for 5 days. Heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney tissues and serum samples were collected from each rat 24 h later after the last administration. The ultra-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight-mass spectrometry based metabolomics was used to investigate the effect of DN in intervening peripheral system of rats. After the treatment with DN, 5 modulated metabolites in heart tissue, 6 in liver tissue, 5 in spleen tissue, 3 in lung tissue, 5 in kidney tissue and 6 in serum sample were identified and considered as the potential intervention targets of DN. Effect of DN in regulating some endogenous metabolites was beneficial for protecting peripheral system, while that in other endogenous metabolites produced potential toxicity to peripheral system. The metabolomic analysis revealed the coexistence of protective and toxic effects of DN on peripheral system, which may be a practical guidance for its safe application and beneficial to the expansion of its application scope.
