Objective To analyze the differences of video laryngoscope, direct laryngoscopy and fibreoptic bron﹣choscope nasal intubation on hemodynamics, inflammatory and stress response. Methods 117 patients underwent surgery from November 2013 to March 2015 were chose as research subjects and randomly divided into video laryn﹣goscope group, direct laryngoscopy group, fiberoptic bronchoscope group based on different cannula enrolled way. Then compared the hemodynamics, inflammation, stress level after intubation among the three groups. Results Com﹣pared with the T0, the three groups patients' systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin -6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), norepinephrine (NE), plasma cortisol (Cor), angiotensinⅡ(ATⅡ) differences had no significant difference (P>0.05);compared with direct laryn﹣goscopy group, video laryngoscope group, fiberoptic bronchoscope group patients' T1, T2, T3 SBP, DBP, HR, CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, NE, Cor, ATⅡ levels were lower; compared with the video laryngoscope group, optical fiber bron﹣choscopy group patients SBP, DBP, HR, CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, NE, Cor, ATⅡ low levels at T1, T2, T3 were lower (P<0.05). Conclusions Fibreoptic bronchoscope nasal intubation has less influence on patients, will not cause severe stress and inflammatory response, it is one of the ideal instrument anesthesia induction intubation.

Objective To construct and analyze the model of the sleeve gastrectomy with modified jejunoileal bypass (SG/MJIB) on non-obese Goto - kakizaki (GK) rats. Methods GK rats were randomly divided into SG/MJIB, sham-SG/MJIB, pair-fed (PF) and controls group. Before and after surgery, the changes of weight, food intake, fasting glucose, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), insulin tolerance test (ITT), fasting plasma Insulin and the histological changes in islet were dynamically observed for 16 weeks. Results From the 4th week postoperative, the weight changes of SG/MJIB significantly decreased compared with sham-SG/MJIB and PF group (P<0.01). Fasting glucose concentration of SG/MJIB animals was lower than sham-SG/MJIB, PF and controls group (P<0.05). The OGTT of SG/MJIB rats was obviously improved compared with the sham-SG/MJIB, PF and controls group (P<0.01). Two weeks after operation, glucose tolerance was better improved in SG/MJIB than preoperative, the area under the curve (AUC) of blood glucose concentration decreased by about 38.9% (P<0.01). Postoperative insulin levels in SG/MJIB group were obviously lower than sham-SG/MJIB group throughout the experiment(P<0.05). In the 16th week, the morph of pancreatic islet of SG/MJIB was obviously improved. In the SG/MJIB group, the number of positive β-cell and mature acinus was significantly increased, while sham surgery groups had no obvious changes as mentioned above. Conclusions SG/MJIB was directly linked to the reduction in glucose levels in GK rats, independently weight loss and caloric intake, and it can be served asa stable long-lasting hypoglycemic surgery model to research the mechanism for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

A capillary electrophoretic method was developed for the separation of enantiomers of naphthylgly-cidic ether(NGE). Several cyclodextrins(CDs) were applied as the chiral selectors and it was found that the ionic modified highly sulfated cyclodextrin(HS-β-CD) could give satisfactory enantioselectivity. In addition,the effects of the pH value of the buffer system,the concentration of the HS-β-CD,capillary temperature and the running voltage on the chiral separation were investigated systematically. The result showed that under the optimized conditions of pH 2. 5,20 mmol/L H_3PO_4-triethanolamine buffer containing 2% highly sulfated cyclodextrin ( HS-β-CD) at capillary temperature 20℃ in the reversed polarity voltage of - 18 kV,the enantiomers of naphthylglycidic ether were baseline separated. This method is simple,precise and can be applied to the chiral separation of naphthylglycidic ether enantiomers and determination of enantiomers excess(ee,% ).

Objective To evaluate the role of p38 MAPK signal transduction pathway in dexmedetomidine against neurotoxicity induced by bupivacaine.Methods Seventy-two adult male SD rats,successfully implanted with intrathecal catheter without complications,were randomly divided into 6 groups: control group (group C);p38MAPK inhibitor group(group SB);dexmedetomidine group (group D);bupivacaine group (group B);dexmedetomidine and bupivacaine group (group DB);p38MAPK inhibitor and bupivacaine group (group SBB).DMSO 20 μl were injected intrathecally in group C;p38MAPK inhibitor 30 μg and 5% bupivacaine were respectively injected intrathecally in group SB and B;group DB and SBB were respectivel pretreated with dexmedetomidine 75 μg/kg intraperitoneally and p38MAPK inhibitor 30 μg intrathecal injection 20 min before intrathecally injected 5% bupivacaine.Dexmedetomidine 75 μg/kg was injected intraperitoneally in group D.Mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured before intrathecal catheter was implanted (T0),before intrathecal administration (T1) and at 4,8 and 12 h and on 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 days after intrathecal administration (T2-T10).At 24 h after intrathecal administration,6 rats were randomly chosen from each group and sacrificed.The lumbar segment (L4-5) of the spinal cord was removed for detecting neuronal apoptosis (by TUNEL) and phosporylated p38MAPK(p-p38MAPK) expression (by Western blot).Results Compared with T0,MWT was significantly increased and TWL was prolonged at T2-T9 in group B,MWT at T2-T7 was significantly increased and TWL at T2-T6 was prolonged in group DB,MWT was significantly increased and TWL was prolonged at T2-T5 in group SBB (P<0.05).Compared with group C,no significant difference was found in MWT,TWL,the apoptotic index and expression of p-p38MAPK in groups D and SB.MWT was significantly increased and TWL was prolonged at T2-T9 in group B,the apoptotic index and expression of p-p38MAPK were significantly increased in group B (P<0.05).Compared with group B,MWT and TWL at T2-T9,the apoptotic index and expression of p-p38MAPK were significantly decreased in groups DB and SBB (P<0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can inhibit spinal neurotoxicity induced by bupivacaine in rats via inhibiting apoptosis in spinal cord,and inhibition of p38 MAPK signal transduction pathway may be involved in the underlying mechanism.

Objective To investigate and compare the action of curcuminoids on the causal pathogens of Candida albicans growth.Methods The effects of curcumin (CUR) and demethoxycurcumin (DMC) on C.albicans growth were first investigated and compared by microcalorimetry coupled with multiple analytical methods.The quantitative thermo-kinetic parameters obtained from these curves were analyzed to show difference of the actions.Results By analyzing the main parameters screened from principal component analysis together with 50% inhibiting concentration values,it was demonstrated that both CUR and DMC showed good antifungal activities and CUR was stronger.It was further concluded from structure-activity relationship that the existence of methoxy group might enhance lipophilicity of the mother nucleus,which made it easier for the molecular to enter into the cell membrane of fungi to inhibit its growth.Conclusion This study provides a new method for screening new antifungal agents with high efficacy and low toxicity.Meanwhile,it contributes to the application of curcuminoids as food additive,colorant,and drug.Microcalorimetry is real-time,online,and dynamic,and it could be used to characterize the subtle difference among the effects of synthetic and natural products on the vital process of fungi.
