Objective To investigate the significance of total bilirubin/albumin in predicting bilirubin neurotoxicity.Methods Eighty-three cases with hyperbilirubinemia who treated from May 2007 to August 2010 were selected,the serum total bilirubin and albumin were detected and total bilirubin/albumin was calculated.According to brainstem auditory evoked potential(BAEP)results,the patients were divided into normal BAEP group and abnormal BAEP group and compared.Results There were 27 cases of abnormal BAEP group and 56 cases of normal BAEP group.Total bilirubin and total bilirubin/albumin in abnormal BAEP group were higher than those in normal BAEP group[(356.50±59.23)μmol/L vs.(318.70±55.12)μmol/L,(5.02±0.49)×10-3 vs.(4.56±0.43)×10-3],the differences were significant (P<0.05).Multiple regression analysis showed:abnormal BAEP was closely related to total bilirubin/albumin(r=0.72,P<0.05),whih abnormal BAEP was not obviously related to total bilirubin(r=0.19,P>0.05).Conclusion Total bilirubin/albumin can reflect serum unconjugated bilirubin level of neonatus with hyperbilirubinemia better than total bilirubin,and it can can be taken as one index to evaluate the risk factors of bilirubin neurotoxicity.

OBJECTIVE:To study the dermal pharmacokinetic difference of triptolide in normal and diabetic rats,and to pro-vide reference for rational drug use in the clinic. METHODS:12 Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group and diabetic model group(0.1%streptozotocin intraperitoneally),with 6 rats in each group. Both group were given Triptolide cream 0.5 g to ab-dominal skin,and dialysate was collected by microdialysis every 30 min for consecutive 12 h. Subcutaneous concentration was de-tected by HPLC-MS,and subcutaneous concentration-time curves were analyzed and compared between two groups,and Winnon-lin 5.0.1 software was used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters. RESULTS:The pharmacokinetic parameters of normal group and diabetic model group were that cmax were(1.54±0.37)and(5.12±1.34)μg/ml;tmax were(7.32±0.24)and(6.21±0.35)h;AUC0-12 h were (12.65 ± 4.64) and (37.43 ± 5.23)μg·h/ml,with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The change of dermal structure caused by diabetes can increase percutaneous penetration amount of triptolide in rats,and drug dosage should be reduced according to circumstances so as to reduce side effects.

AIM: This study was conducted to evaluate the bone repairing ability of coral artificial bone(CAB) composite of human recombinant bone morphogenetic protein-2(rhBMP-2-CAB) implanted into extraction sockets. METHODS: 12 adult dogs served as the experimental animals. Immediately after extraction of the upper second and third incisors, rhBMP-2-CAB and CAB were respectively implanted into each site of extraction sockets. The bone repairing ability of the two grafts was analyzed with histology, image analysis system and radionuclide bone imagining at 4th, 8th and 12th week, respectively. RESULTS: rhBMP-2-CAB were absorbed gradually after implanted into alveolar bone defect and were replaced completely by bone at 12 weeks. The ratio of new bone formation of rhBMP-2-CAB was significantly higher than that of CAB at different time( P

Objective To evaluate the effects of extremity ischemic preconditioning on liver injury after cardiac valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients (NYHA Ⅱ or Ⅲ), weighing 44-72 kg, with ejection fraction≥40%, schedule for elective cardiac valve replacement with CPB, were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table: control group (group C) and extremity ischemic preconditioning group (group E).Immediately after anesthesia induction, an auto-inflatable cuff was placed under the right lower extremity, and was inflated to 300 mmHg to induce ischemia (oxygen saturation at the finger tip undetected or foot pulse untouched on the operated side) which was preceded by 3 cycles of 5 min ischemia-5 min reperfusion in group E.Before anesthesia induction (T0) , and at 2, 12, 24, and 72 h, and 7 days after operation (T1-5) , blood samples were taken from the right internal jugular vein for determination of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities.The expression of serum miR-122 was detected at T0-4 by real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction.Results Compared with the value at T0, the serum ALT and AST activities were significantly increased at T2-4, and the expression of miR-122 was up-regulated at T1-3 in the two groups (P<0.05).Compared with group C, the serum ALT and AST activities were significantly decreased at T2-4, and the expression of miR-122 was down-regulated at T1-3in group E (P<0.05).Conclusion Extremity ischemic preconditioning can mitigate liver injury after cardiac valve replacement with CPB.
