Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2001;33(3):238-242
Objective: To study the effects of variou s absorption enhancers and enzyme inhibitors on in sulin permeation in vitro and in vivo . Methods: The pene tration of insulin throu gh hamster and rabbit buccal membrane was investigated by measuring in vitro transbuccal flux. Buccal insulin absorption was estimated in vivo from th e cumula tive response of serum glucose concentrations and comparison was made with the results of subcutaneous experiments. Results: There was a statistically significant permeabil ity increas e of insulin over controls after co-administration with the SDCh, Brij78, SLS or lecithin, aprotinin, bacitracin, whereas 1-menthol or poloxamer were less e ffective. Buccal insulin efficacy in the absence of co-administration adjuvants was very low relative t o subcutaneous administration of insulin. When co-administered buccally with SD Ch, SLS, l ecithin or Brij78, Fr (relative pharmacological bioavailability) values were al l increased significantly. Conclusion: The present studies showed that with the most effective absorption adjuvants, buccal insulin was one-fifth to one-fourth as effective as subcutaneous insulin. Results of in vitro experiments were in agreement with the in vivo re sults with respect to the enhancement of these adjuvants.

Objective To observe the relationship of blood serum bilirubin level with coronary heart disease and the degree of coronary artery narrowing. Methods A total of 126 patients were divided into the coronary disease group (83) and the control group (43). According to the coronary artery narrowing integral, the 83 patients in the coronary disease group were divided into three subgroups: mild narrowing group (15 people), moderate narrowing group (35 people), and severe narrowing group (33 people). The coronary arteriography of the patients in the control group was normal. 5mL venous blood was drawn on empty stomach, and the enzyme method was used to determine glycerin, the total cholesterol, the low density lipoprotein cholesterol, the high density lipoprotein cholesterol, and the blood serum bilirubin. Results The blood serum total bilirubin in the coronary disease group was (12.30?3.84)?mol/L, direct bilirubin was (4.07?1.45)?mol/L, and indirect bilirubin was (8.23 ? 2.82 )?mol/L. The total bilirubin in the normal group was (14.59?4.37)?mol/L, direct bilirubin was (4.66 ? 1.55 )?mol/L, and indirect bilirubin was (9.93?3.33)?mol/L. The total bilirubin, indirect bilirubin and direct bilirubin were lower in coronary disease group than in normal group (P0.05). Conclusion The blood serum bilirubin level and coronary disease have remarkable negative correlation, and the blood serum bilirubin level of patients with coronary disease is lower than that of healthy people. ② The blood serum bilirubin level and the degree of coronary artery narrowing do not have remarkable correlation.

Objective To describe the importance of anesthesia management in performing interventional procedures. Methods A total of 24 382 patients, who were admitted to authors’ hospital during the period from April 2011 to April 2015 to receive level Ⅲ or level Ⅳ interventional procedures, were enrolled in this study. According to the anesthesia method, the patients were divided into (1) mechanical ventilation group (group A), i.e. intravenous general anesthesia combined with laryngeal mask or endotracheal intubation, (2) intravenous general anesthesia and autonomous respiratory group (group B), (3) conscious sedation group (group C) and (4) local anesthesia group (group D). The heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (ABP), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and anesthesia-related complications of the patients of all four groups were kept under close observation before, during and after the interventional procedures, the results were statistically analyzed. Results The anesthesia was successfully implemented according to the operation plan in all 24 382 patients. Interventional procedure of level Ⅲ was performed in 16 702 patients(68.5%) and interventional procedure of levelⅣwas adopted in 7 680 patients (31.5%). The patients receiving interventional procedure of level Ⅲof group A, B, C and D were 6 797 (40.7%), 3 608 (21.6%), 5 095(30.5%) and 1 202(7.2%) respectively;while the patients receiving interventional procedure of level Ⅳ of group A, B, C and D were 4 193 (54.6%), 2 527 (32.9%), 699 (9.1%) and 261 (3.4%)respectively. No statistically significant differences in preoperative HR, ABP and SpO2 existed between each other among the four groups (P>0.05). In group A, B and C the HR and ABP values determined in operation were not statistically different from the preoperative ones(P>0.05), and the differences in HR and ABP values among the three groups were also not statistically different (P>0.05);SpO2 levels showed no obvious changes (P>0.05). In group D, the HR and ABP values determined in operation were significantly higher than the preoperative ones (P<0.05), and also these values were statistically different from those of other three groups (P<0.05);SpO2 levels showed no obvious changes (P>0.05). In 22 patients of group D the operation had to be stopped as they were unable to tolerate the procedure. Conclusion In performing different levels of interventional procedures, level Ⅲ and level Ⅳ intervention surgeries in particular, careful selection of individualized anesthesia plan on the base of patient’s condition and operation requirement is an important guarantee for ensuring a safe operation with no interference, and it is also a good way to reduce the pain severity of patient. Therefore, individualized anesthesia plan is worth to be widely used in interventional procedures.
