Objective To investigate the effect of different doses of dexmedetomidine on myocardial injury (in perioperative peri‐od) on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in patients with rheumatic heart valve replacement surgery .Methods Patients undertook rheumatic heart valve replacement surgery with mitral stenosis were divided into three groups (n=20) in randomized and double‐blind method :control group (group C) ,dexmedetomidine 0 .3 μg/kg group (DEX1 group) ,dexmedetomidine 0 .6 μg/kg group (DEX2 group) .Central venous blood was drawn respectively before anesthesia induction (T0 ) ,2h after CPB (T1 ) ,24 h after CPB (T2 ) ,48 h after CPB (T3 ) ,72 h after CPB (T4 ) .Plasma muscle calcium protein I (cTnI) and creatine kinase (CreatineKinase MB , CK‐MB) were measured and mean arterial pressure and heart rate were recorded at each time point .Furthermore ,extubation time , ICU stay ,postoperative inotropic score 24 h after operation ,drainage 24 h after operation ,cardio auto‐resuscitation rates and ad‐verse cardiovascular events were recorded .Results Compared with T0 ,HR was significantly lower in the T1 time point in DEX2 group .Compared with group C ,HR ,plasma CK‐MB ,inotropic score 24 h after operation and cardiovascular adverse events was sig‐nificantly reduced in the T1 time points in DEX1 group (P<0 .05) ,but the heart auto‐resuscitation rate did not significantly im‐proved .HR at T1 ,plasma CK‐MB values at T1 and T2 ,and plasma cTnI values at T2 -T4 were significantly reduced ;the heart re‐suscitation significantly increased ,myocardial contraction power ratings 24 h after operation and the incidence of cardiovascular e‐vents was significantly lower in DEX2 group (P<0 .05) .The extubation time ,ICU stay time and drainage 24 h after operation did not change significantly in both groups .Conclusion Dexmedetomidine has a protective effect on perioperative myocardial injury in patients with rheumatic heart valve replacement surgery ,and the effect would be better when the dexmedetomidine was infused at 0 .6 μg · kg -1 · h-1 after a loading dose of 0 .6 μg/Kg continuously .

Therapies for uveitis include drug treatment and surgery.Medical therapies including proper administration of corticos- teroids,immunosuppressive drugs,nonsteroidal anti-inflammtion drugs and anti-infective drugs are important in management of the in- traocular inflammation and decreasing the risk of complications,furthermore,are the basis for surgical treatment of uveitis.

Objective Focusing on the problem such as slow scanning speed, complex system design and low light efficiency, a new parallel confocal 3D profile detecting method based on optical fiber technology, which realizes whole-field confocal detecting, is proposed. Methods The optical fiber plate generates an 2D point light source array, which splits one light beam into N2 subbeams and act the role of pinholes as point source and point detecting to filter the stray light and reflect light. By introducing the construction and working principle of the multi-beam 3D detecting system, the feasibility is investigated. Results Experiment result indicates that the optical fiber technology is applicable in rotation. The measuring parameters that influence the detecting can easily be adapted to satisfy different requirments of measurement. Compared with the conventional confocal method, the parallel confocal detecting system using optical fiber plate is simple in the mechanism, the measuring field is larger and the speed is faster.

Concurrent thyroid carcinoma and parathyroid adenoma is rare, they can and do coexist. We present here a 63-year old man who had bilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma and a parathyroid adenoma in the right thyroid lobe. Thyroid cancer was confirmed surgically. After the operation, the patient was found hypercalcemie and hypophosphatemia along with an elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH), indicating primary hyperparathyroidism. Also, the parathyroid 99mTc-MIBI scan demonstrated parathyroid adenoma in the right lower pole of the thyroid. The abnormal parathyroid tissue was carried out, and then serum calcium and PTH levels decreased to normal ranges.

Hydronephrosis is one of the most common urological diseases in children.Most of hydronephrosis caused by ureteropelvic junction obstruction.Whether these children need operations were being argued.The current tendency is when the renal function become worse,operation is suggested needed,in order to save the renal function.So the methods how to evaluate the renal function are especially important,this article related to the current research and review.

To elucidate the mechanism of Pai Pei Tang in combination with mifepristone in termination of early pregnancy, samples of apoblema (5 each) were collected from the Pai Pei Tang group, mifepristone group, Pai Pei Tang and mifepristone group (N = 68) and routine artificial abortion group (N = 22). We found that atrophy of the decidua and chorion was the utmost in the Pai Pei Tang and mifepristone group under the electron microscope. The result suggested that Pai Pei Tang could induce degenerative and atrophic changes in the decidua and affect the chorion directly.

Background and purpose:It was reported that nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) is closely related with carcinomas. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common carcinomas in China. The present study investigated the expression and clinical significance of NFAT isoforms in ESCC. Methods:The expression of NFAT isoforms and the differences in different pathological levels of ESCC were detected in 104 specimens of human ESCC tissues and normal esophageal tissues by immunohistochemistry. Results:This study found that the positive rates of NFAT1 (53.8%), NFAT2 (10.6%), NFAT3 (26.9%), NFAT4 (45.2%) expression were significantly higher in tumor tissues than in adjacent normal esophageal tissues (P<0.001), respectively. The positive rate of NFAT1 expression was significant-ly higher in drinkers (62.3%) than nondrinkers (37.1%, P=0.01), and also higher in patients with lymph node metastasis (68.4% vs 5.5%, P=0.002) and with late stage (58.7% vs 36.2%, P=0.02). Multivariate analysis showed that NFAT1 expression was correlated with lymph node metastasis. The positive rate of NFAT3 was significantly higher in patients with lymph node metastasis (39.4%) than in those without lymph node metastasis (19.7%, P=0.03). Conclusion:These results suggest that the overexpression of NFAT1 and NFAT3 is associated with lymph node metastasis in ESCC.

Objective To find an internal quality controlling method for 17-OHP determination by time-resolved fluoroimmuno-assay .Methods 20 quality control data were collected .The data were analyzed by using L-J method ,instant method and improved instant method .Results were used for the construction of quality control charts .Result The first three quality control data had a great impact on the following judgments of internal quality controlling when instant method was used .The subsequent results might be false acceptance .Improved instant method could effectively reduce the situations of false run-away and false acceptance ,which was suitable for the internal quality control of 17-OHP determination by time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay in newborn screening . Conclusion There are many steps of manual operations in 17-OHP determination of time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay .The details of these operations have great impacts on the experimental results .Thus ,the operations of 17-OHP test should be specified and exe-cuted strictly according to requirement .
