Chinese Medical Equipment Journal 1989;0(03):-
Objective To investigate the analgesic effect and adverse reaction of PCA,and identify the efficacious nursing on 40 paediatric patients of different ages(5-14 years) who experienced abdominal and perineal operations.Methods 40 patients were divided into two groups with formulation analgesia used for PCA 0.075% bupivocaine 100 ml and Fentanyl 0.2 mg in children aged 5-14 years;one for pump speed 3 ml/h in aged 5-9 years,and patient-controlled analgesia by children or parents;another for pump speed 4 ml/h in children aged 10-14 years,and patient-controlled analgesia by children themselves.The effects of postoperative analgesia were observed as well as adverse reactions such as nausea,vomiting,skin itching,urinary retention,headache,etc.Results Analgesia effect was good,and the vital signs was stable with SPO2 over 95%.None was respiratory depression and headache,and two had nausea and vomiting,and one cutaneous pruritus.Conclusions PCA is safe and effective in the paediatric patients of different ages(5-14 years) who experienced abdominal and perineal operations.

Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2016;(1):34-35
Objective]To explore clinical experience in treating pregnancy uterine cavity effusion by tonifying kidney to remove blood stasis. [Method] With the study of TCM literature on pregnancy uterine cavity effusion, by combining with clinical practice, it expounds pathogenesis and treatment of syndrome differentiation of pregnancy uterine cavity effusion. [Result]The main pathogenesis of this disease focuses on kidney deficiency and blood stasis which can impair Chong and Ren channels,inducing insecurity of the fetal origin,so the clinical treatment principle centers on tonifying kidney to remove blood stasis,and the self-decoction that is the basic recipe may change with symptom, making the fetal origin secure. [Conclusion] Method of tonifying kidney to remove blood stasis is quite effective for pregnancy uterine cavity effusion in clinic,and it is worth further study.

The occurrence and development of tumor depends not only on the tumor itself,but also depends on the soil survival of tumor cells,that is the tumor microenvironment.Studies confirm that the changes of blood vessels and hypoxic of tumor microenvironment maintain the stemness of cancer stem cell,and further strengthen the ability of tumor invasion and metastasis.Studying the molecular mechanism of tumor development from angiogenesis and lack of oxygen can provide new ideas for the clinical targeted therapy.

Objective:To investigate the retinal toxicity of chitosan and gentamicin- chitosan gel. Methods:Sixteen albino New Zealand rabbits (weighted 1. 5-2.5 kg) were used in this study. The rabbits were divided into 4 groups randomly;each group was injected with 0.1 ml PBS, gentamicin 2 mg/ml,3% Chitosan gel, and gentamicin-chitosan gel (2 mg/ml) respectively. ①Ophtahlmoscopic examinations were done. Retina was observed prior to injection , and on 1st, 3 rd, 7 th, 14 th d and 28 th d after injection with direct ophthalmolscope observations. ②Electroretinographs (ERGs) were recorded prior to injection, and then on 3 rd,7 th,14 th d and 28 th d after injection were carried out. ③Light microscope and transmission electronicmicroscope examinations were performed four weeks after the injection. All eyes were enucleated, the retina examples were observed under light microscope and transmission electronic microscope. Results:Intravitreous injection with 3% chitosan was free of retina toxicity. The retina toxicity effects of gentamicin 200 ?g could be found with transmission electron microscope, but gentamicin-chitosan gel with the same dosage could decrease the damage. Conclusion:The result shows that chitosan can be used in the intravitreous injection.

Bone marrow stromal antigen 2 (BST-2) is a kind of host restriction factor. Since it was discovered to be responsible for the defect in virion release of HIV-1 mutants lacking the accessory gene vpu in 2008, it was thought to mainly restrict the viruses by directly tethering viral particles at the plasma membrane. Recent reports suggest that BST-2 also can inhibit the the release of HBV particles, which are budding in the intracellular vesicles, expanding the antiviral spectrum of BST-2. Futhermore, the machanism that BST-2 used to restrict HBV release in multivesicular bodies (MVBs) is similar to that used to restrict HIV at the plasma membrane. However, HBV have evolved strategies to antagonize the antiviral action of BST-2. There are two different opinions about the antagonist. One is HBV inactivated BST-2 by HBx requiring a hepatocyte-specific environment. Another thought envelope protein HBs counteract the antiviral action of BST-2. In this review, we focus on the current advances in the anti-HBV activity of BST-2.

A safe and effective vaccine against the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is expected to have a considerable impact on elimination of acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Despite decades of effort, an effective vaccine against HIV-1 remains elusive. In recent years, the Thai HIV Vaccine Efficacy Trial (known as RV144) showed a reduction in HIV-1 acquisition by 31%, but this agent could not delay disease progression in vaccinated individuals. Clinical analyses of experimental data and experiments in vitro have revealed two main types of immunogen design: induction of broad-spectrum neutralizing antibody (bNAb) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses. bNAb can prevent or reduce acquisition of infection, and its main immunogens are virus-like particles, natural envelope trimers and stable bNAb epitopes. An effective CTL response can slow-down viral infection, and its main immunogens are "mosaic" vaccines, "conserved immunogens", and the "fitness landscape" of HIV-1 proteins. This review summarizes the strategies as well as progress in the design and testing of HIV-1 immunogens to elicit bNAb and CTL responses.

Objective To observe the analgesic effect of Qilong Toutong Granule and explore its underlying mechanisms of action. Methods Kunming mice were randomly divided into blank group, Zhengtian pill group, ibuprofen group, and high-, medium- and low-dose of Qilong Toutong Granule groups. After completing the prophylactic treatment for 3 days, hot-plate test and acetic acid-induced writhing test were used to observe the pain reaction of mice. SD rats were randomly divided into blank group, Zhengtian pill group, model group, rizatriptam group, and high-, medium- and low-dose of Qilong Toutong Granule groups. After gavaged for continuous 7 days, rats were intraperitoneally injected nitroglycerin (10 mg/kg), and 4 hours later, blood samples were collected from postcava for measuring the levels of plasma CGRP and β-EP by radioimmunoassay. Subsequently, rats were perfused transcardially and the brain tissues containing the trigeminal nucleus caudalis (Sp5C) were achieved for detecting the expression of Fos protein by immunohistochemical method. Results Qilong Toutong Granule significantly raised the pain threshold, reduced the number of writhing response of mice, remarkably down-regulated the levels of plasma CGRP, up-regulated the levels of plasmaβ-EP and inhibited the expression of Fos protein in Sp5C of rats compared with the model group. Conclusion Qilong Toutong Granule has good analgesic effect and its mechanisms on relieving migraine may be through regulating the levels of neurotransmitters or neuropeptides, and inhibiting the activation of Fos pathway.
