Chinese Traditional Patent Medicine 1992;0(09):-
After Katong Tablets(the equivalent dosage of over two times of adult daily administra- tion)were infused into the animal stomach for successive 10 days,it could strongly improve the increase of blood rheology of rat induced by adrenaline plus ice water or of rat with the deficiency of vital energy and blood stasis induced by swimming in successive days,and sig- nificantly strengthen the malformation ability of red cells of senile rat,inhibit the vitro circu- lation thrombosis of arteria carotis and jugular vein of normal rats,decrease the aggregate function of thrombocyte of rabbit induced by ADP.It showed the similar action strength with the control drug Kanlan Tablets.

Objective To investigate the serum procalcitonin (PCT) levels in sepsis caused by the bacteria,virus and mycoplasma and explore the role of PCT in etiology diagnosis of sepsis in children.Methods Three hundreds and thirty critically ill children with sepsis caused by bacteria,virus and mycoplasma admitted in PICU of Hunan Children' s Hospital from Feb 1,2011 to Sep 1,2012 were reviewed and analyzed.The PCT levels were measured at admission and day 3.The differences in accidence of sepsis caused by bacteria,viruses and mycoplasma according to different serum PCT levels were analyzed.The differences of PCT levels at admission and day 3 in sepsic children caused by bacteria,viruses and mycoplasma were analyzed.Results The level of serum PCT in sepsis caused by bacterial infection were distinctly increased,caused by virus and mycoplasma infections was not obvious but the increases of serum PCT [0.71 (8.14)ng/ml,0.15 (1.68) ng/ml,0.28 (1.89) ng/ml].According to various PCT levels(0.05 ~ ng/ml,0.5 ~ng/ml,2 ~ ng/ml,10 ~ 300 ng/ml),the differences of accidence of sepsis caused by bacteria,virus and mycoplasma were also statistically significant(x2 =84.50,P < 0.01).The PCT level of septic children caused by bacterial infection in day 3 was significantly decreased compared with that at admission [0.32 (5.68) ng/ml vs 0.71 (8.14) ng/ml] (U =19.34,P <0.05).Conclusion PCT plays a certain role in etiology diagnosis of sepsis in children.The increased PCT levels which can be reduced by anti-inflammatory treatment indicate the likelihood of bacterial infection and sepsis.The increase of PCT induced by viral and mycoplasma infections is not obvious,but bacterial infection can not be completely ruled out.

Objective To investigate the effect of Pericarpium Zanthoxyli (HJ) on guinea pigs trachea in vitro and its therapeutic mechanism. Methods The actions of HJ on the contraction of normal trachea and on the spasm of spasmodic tracheas caused by acetylcholine (Ach) and histamine phosphate (HIS), as well as the actions on intracellular Ca2+ - dependent contraction and extracellular Ca2+ - dependent contraction induced by HIS were observed. Results HJ could inhibit the guinea pigs trachea contraction , antagonize the contraction of trachea spasm induced by Ach and HIS , restrain the extracellular Ca2+ - dependent contraction induced by HIS in a dose- dependent manner. Conclusion HJ has an antiasthma effect.

Objective To study the pathogenesis, the diagnoses and the pre-hospital emergency treatment of comatose patients. Methods 314 comatose patients admitted to our hospital from September 2003 to September 2004 were analyzed retrospectively and followed in the hospital. Results Among 314 comatose patients, 119 had cerebrovascular accidents, 91 with poisoning, 42 with metabolic diseases, 37 cardiovascular diseases and 25 others. After pre-hospital treatment, 68 patients were recovered, 199 with stable conditions, 31 deterioated and 16 died. Conclusion Among the comatose patients, cerebral diseases and poisoning accounted for the most. The pre-hospital treatment could improve the successful rate of rescue.

ObjectiveTo explore the molecular epidemiological characteristics of group A rotavirus diarrhea in children in Shanghai and to provide the background data for the implementation of rotavirus vaccination.MethodsA total of 910 stool samples were collected from the outpatient children with acute diarrhea from August 2008 to July 2009.Group A rotavirus was detected by usingcommercial colloidal gold device.Rotavirus strains were characterized for G and P genotypes using the nested reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).ResultsGroup A rotavirus was detected in 268(29.4%) out of 910 stool samples.Rotavirus infection was found year-round and the peak season was from October 2008 to January 2009,with the detection rates ranging from 38.3 % to 70.5%.Ninety-one percent of children (244 cases) with rotavirus-associated diarrhea occurred in children <3 years of age.The detection rate of rotavirus was highest (36.6%) in children aged 12-23 months.Among the 268 group A rotavirus-positive strains,G1 was the most common G genotype (65 strains),accounting for 24.3%,followed by G3 (40 strains,14.9%),G mixed genotypes (37strains,13.8 %),G2 (27 strains,10.1%),G9 (14 strains,5.2%),G4(5 strains,1.9%),other G types (5 strains,1.9%),and unclassified G type (75 strains,28.0%).P[8] and P[4] were the most common P genotypes,accounting for 54.9% (147 strains) and 11.9% (32 strains),respectively,followed by P mixed genotypes (6 strains,2.2%) and other P genotypes (4 strains,1.5%),unclassified P type (79 strains,29.5%).The G/P genotype combinations were found as follows:G1P [8] (13.4%),G3P[8] (13.4%),GmixP[8] (10.1%),G1P[4] (8.2%),G9P[8] (2.2%),G2P [4] (1.9%),G1Pmix (1.9%).ConclusionsGroup A rotavirus is a major causative agent of diarrhea in infants and young children in Shanghai.The peak season of rotavirus infection appears in fall and winter.The currently licensed rotavirus vaccines cover the majority of genotypes of rotavirus strains prevailing in Shanghai.

Objective To investigate the influence of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) on pharmacodaynamics of cisatracurium in patients undergoing general anesthesia. Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 18-60 yr scheduled for major abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were randomly allocated into 2 groups (n = 30 each): control group and AHH group. Each group was further divided into 3 subgroups according to the initial dose of cisatracurium (30, 40, 50 μg/kg) . The radial artery and right internal jugular vein were cannulated. BP, HR, CVP, SpO_2, P_(ET) CO_2 and body temperature were continuously monitored. The response of left adductor pollicis muscle to TOF stimulation of ulna nerve was monitored using TOF- Watch~R SX (Organon). Both groups received 10 ml/kg multiple electrolyte solution (plasma-Lyte A) during induction of anesthesia. In group AHH 15 ml/kg 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 solution was infused via internal jugular vein over 30-40 min in addition to plasma-Lyte A. Five minutes after completion of plasma-Lyte A or HES, cisatracurium 30, 40 or SO fig/kg was injected iv in the respective subgroups. After the maximal T_1 block was achieved, the second dose was given to reach a total dose of 100 μg/kg. The onset time, duration of clinical action, total duration of action and recovery index were recorded. The doses for 50% , 90% and 95% T_1 depression (ED_(50), ED_(90), ED_(95)) were calculated by Probit method. Results The ED_(50), ED_(90), ED_(95) of cisatracurium were significantly higher in AHH group than in control group. The onset time of cisatracurium was significantly longer but clinical and total duration of action was significantly shorter in AHH group than in control group. There was no significant difference in recovery index between the two groups. Conclusion AHH can decrease the potency of cisatracurium.

For the existing measurement methods of residual voltage which can't turn the power off at peak voltage exactly and simultaneously display waveforms, a new residual voltage detection method is put forward in this paper. First, the zero point of the power supply is detected with zero cross detection circuit and is inputted to a single-chip microcomputer in the form of pulse signal. Secend, when the zero point delays to the peak voltage, the single-chip microcomputer sends control signal to power off the relay. At last, the waveform of the residual voltage is displayed on a principal computer or oscilloscope. The experimental results show that the device designed in this paper can turn the power off at peak voltage and is able to accurately display the voltage waveform immediately after power off and the standard deviation of the residual voltage is less than 0.2 V at exactly one second and later.
