Objective To investigate the effect of isoflurane administered before ischemia on polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) infiltration and expression of adhesion molecules in the lung injured by ischemia-reperfusion.Methods One-hundred and twenty male SD rats weighing 250-350 g were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 30 each) :Ⅰ sham operation group (S) ;Ⅱ I/R group in which hilum of left lung was clamped for 45 min and then undamped for reperfusion; Ⅲ Iso + I/R in which 1 MAC isoflurane was inhaled for 30 min before ischemia and Ⅳ Iso + S in which 1 MAC isoflurane was inhaled for 30 min without I/R. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital 50 mg?kg-1 then tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated with 100% O2(VT= 10-15 ml?kg-1) . PaCO2 was maintained at 35-45 mm Hg. Right jugular vein and left carotid artery were cannulated for BP monitoring, blood sampling and fluid and drug administration. Anesthesia was maintained with ketamine 10 mg?kg-1?h-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg-1?h-1. 1 MAC isoflurane (1.38% in rats) was inhaled for 30 min before hilum of left lung was clamped with an atraumatic clamp. Left lung ischemia was maintained for 45 min then the left lung was released for reperfusion. MAP was monitored and blood gases were analyzed during experiment. The animals were killed at the end of 45 minute ischemia and at 30, 60 and 120 min reperfusion and left lung was removed for: (1) determination of W/D lung weight ratio, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and expression of ICAM-1 mRNA; (2) light and electron microscopic examination; (3) broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL). BAL fluid (BALF) was collected and the number of cells, percentage of PMN and total protein concentration in BALF and the expression of CD18 on PMN surface were determined. Results The W/D lung weight ratio, MPO activity and expression of ICAM-1 mRNA in the lung tissue, the percentage of PMN and TP concentration in BALF and the expression of CD18 on PMN surface were all significantly increased during reperfusion in I/R group but isoflurane pretreatment significantly attenuated the I/R induced increases. Histological examination showed that the I/R induced lung injury was also ameliorated by isoflurane pretreatment. Conclusion Inhalation of isoflurane before ischemia could protect the lungs against I/R injury by inhibiting the PMN infiltration and expression of ICAM-1 mRNA and CD-18.

0.05) but CO, SV and CVP increased and SVR decreased significantly after AHH in both groups as compared with those before AHH. pH, Lac and COP did not change significantly after AHH. There was no significant difference in the volume of solution infused, blood loss, CO, SV, CVP and SVR between the two groups. Conclusion Age is not a primary factor negating the use of AHH. Under combined general-epidural anesthesia AHH with 6% hydroxyethyl starch (15 ml?kg-1 ) can be well tolerated by the elderly patients without cardiac and pulmonary disease.

35 % and the intraoperative blood loss was expected to be 800-1 600 ml. The operations were performed under combined general-epidural anesthesia. General anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 2-4 ?g?kg-1 , thiopentone 5 mg?kg-1 and succinylcholine 1.5mg? kg-1 and maintained with isoflurane inhalation and intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium. Epidural anesthesia was performed at T5-6 (thoracic surgery), T10-11 (upper abdominal surgery) or L3-4 (lower abdominal surgery) . A mixture of 0.1% lidocaine +0.2% dicaine was used for epidural block during operation. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: (1) ANIH group ( n = 18) and (2) AHH group ( n = 20) . Blood volume (BV) was calculated according to following formula: BV (ml) (male) = Height (cm)? 28.5 + Body weight (kg) ? 31.6 - 2 820,BV(ml) (female) = Height(cm)? 16.25 + Body weight (kg) ? 38.46 - 1 369. 1 000-1 200 ml of 6% HES (200/0.5) and 500 ml of lactated Ringer's solution (about 25%-30% of BV) were infused at a rate of 50ml?min-1 when induction of anesthesia was started in both groups. In group I (ANIH) 400-600 ml of blood (about 10%-15% of BV) was removed through radial artery before induction of anesthesia. The removed blood was reinfused at the end of surgery. Vital signs (BP,HR,CVP and ST-T changes) , Hct, oncotic pressure and arterial blood lactate concentration were monitored during operation. Results The vital signs were fairly stable during perioperative period in both groups. Transient hypotension developed in 16.7% (3/8 in group Ⅰ ) and 15.0% (3/20 in group Ⅱ ) of patients during induction of anesthesia. CVP was significantly elevated in both groups but the increase in CVP was significantly higher in group Ⅱthan that in group Ⅰ . In group Ⅰ (AN1H) moderate hemodilution was achieved (Hct = 29.9% 2.9%) while in group Ⅱ (AHH) only mild hemodilution was achieved (Hct = 32.9% ?2.9%) .Hct was significantly higher in group Ⅰ(31.5% ?5.1%) than that in group Ⅱ (27.7% ?3.6%) at the end of surgery. Blood loss was comparable between the two groups, and oncotic pressure and blood lactate level were within normal range in both groups. Conclusion ANIH is more effective and safer than AHH without obvious adverse effects, and can avoid exceedingly high CVP commonly seen in AHH. ANIH is a hemodilution technique of choice in the elderly patients.

To study the transport mechanisms of drugs for transplacental treatment of fetal tachyarrhythmia, MDCKII-BCRP and MDCKII cell models was used. MDCKII-BCRP and MDCKII cell monolayer model was used to investigate the bi-direction transport of sotalol, propranolol, propafenone, procainamide and flecainide. Drug concentrations were measured by HPLC-UV or chemiluminescence. The apparent permeability coefficient (P(app)), efflux rate (R(E)) and net efflux rate (R(net)) were calculated. Drugs with R(net) greater than 1.5 were further investigated using cellular accumulation experiments with or without a BCRP inhibitor. The R(net) of sotalol, propranolol, propafenone and procainamide were less than 1.5, while R(net) of flecainide with concentrations of 20 and 5 μmol x L(-1) were 1.6 and 1.9, respectively. The results showed that the transport of flecainide on MDCKII-BCRP cell monolayer could be mediated by BCRP; and the affinity increased when the concentration of flecainide decreased. Cellular accumulation experiments further suggested that accumulation of flecainide in MDCKII-BCRP cells was significantly lower than that in MDCKII cells in a concentration-dependent manner. BCRP inhibitor quercetin (50 μmol x L(-1)) significantly increased the accumulation of flecainide in MDCKII-BCRP cells (P < 0.05). Our preliminary data showed that flecainide but not sotalol, propranolol, propafenone or procainamide can be a substrate of BCRP. Thus the effect of flecainide may be affected by the BCRP in the maternal placental trophoblast membrane layer when treating fetal tachyarrhythmia.

Abstract: Objective This study aims to explore the prevalence and risk factors of metabolic syndrome (MS) among the adults in Hainan Province, and to provide scientific basis for MS prevention and control. Methods A multi-stage cluster random sampling method was applied to select 3 690 permanent residents aged 18 years and above in Hainan Province. The survey was conducted by trained investigators using household appointments and centralized surveys. A questionnaire survey, physical measurement, and laboratory examination were conducted after the collection of blood samples. The processed samples were then tested by a quality-controlled laboratory. Finally, we analysed the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) and its relationship with population characteristics and health-related behaviors. Results The crude prevalence of MS in the population aged 18 and above in Hainan province was 19.46% and the standardized prevalence was 13.21%, with a higher rate in urban areas (22.21%) than in rural areas (18.13%). The prevalence of MS increased with age (P<0.001), and there were significant differences in MS prevalence among different marital and occupational statuses (P<0.01). Logistic regression results indicated that the age groups of 40-<50 years (OR=2.986, 95%CI:1.355-6.580), 50-<60 years (OR=3.739, 95%CI: 1.715-8.151), 60-<70 years (OR=3.890, 95%CI: 1.769-8.556), 70 years and above (OR=3.927, 95%CI: 1.758-8.771), technical, transportation and production personnel (OR=1.579, 95%CI: 1.033-2.412), retired (OR=1.788, 95%CI: 1.415-2.259), unemployed (OR=1.503, 95%CI: 1.044-2.165), smoking cessation (OR=1.582, 95%CI: 1.162-2.154), insufficient intake of fruits and vegetables (OR=1.196, 95%CI: 1.005-1.422), and insufficient physical activity (OR=1.437, 95%CI: 1.155-1.787) were all associated with the prevalence of MS. Among the investigated subjects, 30.22% of them had one abnormal component, with hyperglycemia being the highest (54.44%); 24.25% of them had two abnormal components, with "hyperglycemia + hypertension" being the highest (33.30%); and 19.46% had three or more components, with "overweight/obesity + hyperglycemia + hypertension" being the highest (24.79%). Conclusions The prevalence of MS in Hainan Province is on the rise, and effective lifestyle intervention measures are needed to reduce the risk of MS.

Objective To observe the clnical effects of influence of tanshinone type ⅡA sulfonate on preventing hepatic artery thrombosis after transplantation.Methods A total of 60 patients after liver transplantation were randomly individed into the treatment group and control group, each 30 patients. The treatment group received tanshinone ⅡA sodium sulfonate treatment (60 mg qd, ivgtt continuous 10d) , while the control group used conventional heparinization. The blood coagulation index and the thrombelastograph variables were detected after 7 days and the hepatic artery resistance index (RI) was detected by using Doppler ultrasonography. The postoperative complications and mortality rates were analyzed.Results Although it had little improvement on the coagulation function after liver transplantation, tanshinone ⅡA sodium sulfonate had significant improvement on the time of thrombelastograph parameters reaction (6.35 ± 1.59 minvs. 5.21 ± 1.37 min,t=2.453) and maximum amplitude (58.07 ± 5.42 mmvs. 61.67 ± 5.63 mm,t=-2.532). It showed that RI have significantly statistical difference between the two groups after treatment (0.73 ± 0.11vs. 0.62 ± 0.10;t=-2.948,P<0.01). During the trial, the control group had 2 cases of postoperative complications, HAT and bleeding.Conclusions The Tanshinone ⅡA sodium after liver transplantation can improve the clotting mechanism, preventing HAT.

Objective To establish the model for periventricular leukomalacia(PVL) by intracerebral injection of 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NPA) and explore realistic model for concerned studies and investigate the diagnostic method with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination. MethodsSprague-Dawley rat pups of both sexes at the age of postnatal day 5 (P5) were randomized and divided into two groups: NPA group and PBS group , and they were injected the same volume of 3-NPA and PBS with a tip located at the corpus callosum above the left ventricle by stereotaxis instrument, respectively. One day (P6), two days (P7), three days (P8) and nine days (P14) after injection, the injections were transcardially perfused and brains were collected. Then sections of brains were undertaken HE staining; growth and the time of opening eyes of the rats in the two different groups were observed and compared. Neurobehaviorai activity and memory tests were performed on postnatal day 29 (P29) and day 30 (P30). MRI examination was performed on postnatal day 30 (P30). ResultsMore weight increase and slower opening eye time were found in the NPA group compared with PBS group (P < 0.05). In the NPA group, sub-cortical and periventricular white matter rarefaction were observed by HE staining on P6, P7 and P8, significant lateral ventricle enlargement was found on P14, while the same changes were not found in the PBS group, and no histological changes in gray matter were noted in both groups. The outcomes of neurobehavioral tests of NPA group were much more abnormal compared with the PBS group (P < 0.05). MRI examination disclosed the signal changes of brain tissue is worse in the NPA group than that of the PBS group in muscle strength of limbs, autocinesis, capability and white matter. ConclusionsThe model for PVL induced by intracerebral injection of 3-NPA is characterized by damage to the periventricular white matter. The model can stimulate the pathologic change factually in vivo. The neurobehavioral movement is consistent with.clinical symptom. It can be used as a model to investigate some related disease. MRI examination is a feasible diagnostic method to show anatomic changes of white matter injury of the brain.
