Objective To investigate effects of different sedation methods on the mechanical ventilation patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).Methods A total of 101 patients with mechanical ventilation in our hospital was randomly divided into observation (58 cases) and control (43 cases) groups.The observation group was given to strengthen psychological care during the day, and the night was given to the patients with AECOPD.The control group was treated with continuous analgesia and sedation, and the daily morning was executed to wake up the plan 1 ~ 2 hours.A set of indexes were observed, including white cell count, C-reactive protein, oxygen index, B-type natriuretic peptide, delirium occurred rate, unexpectedly drawn tube rate, and duration of mechanical ventilation.Results White blood cell number, C reactive protein, and oxygen index group in the observation group were significantly better than the control group [(10.1 ± 2.4) × 109/L vs (11.2 ± 2.8) × 109/L,(40.6 ± 11.6) mg/L vs (45.8 ± 12.2) mg/L, and (285.6 ±45.1) vs (268.2 ±42.6)] (P <0.05).The incidence of delirium rate in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group [30/58(51.7%) vs 31/43(72.1%)] (P <0.05).The mechanical ventilation time in the observation group was significantly shorter than the control group [(8.41 ± 3.96) d vs (10.35 ± 5.57) d] (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference between B type natriuretic peptide and accidental extubation rate (P > 0.05).Conclusions The night program sedation program can significantly improve AECOPD mechanical ventilation in patients with inflammatory index and oxygen index, reduces the incidence of delirium in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, does not increase the accidental extubation rate, and significantly shortens the AECOPD patients with mechanical ventilation duration of mechanical ventilation, as a mechanical ventilation in AECOPD patients who killed one of the options.

Objective To explore the effect of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on generation of free radicals and the permeability of blood-brain barrier(BBB) during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion(CIR). Methods Three hundred and twenty Kunming mice were randomly divided into four groups: a sham operation group, a HBO group, a CIR group, and a HBO + CIR group, with 80 mice in each group. Conscious mice were used to establish the CIR model, and 0.25MPa (ATA) HBO were applied 5 times after operations. The activities of SOD, CAT, GSH-PX and the concentration of MDA, EB in the cerebral hippocampal tissues in each group were measured with colorimetry. The cerebral hippocampal tissues were harvested and processed, then observed and compared with transmission electron microscopic observation. Results Compared with the sham operation group, the activities of antioxidation enzymes (GSH-PX,SOD, CAT) in CIR group decreased significantly (P

Objective: To discuss the way of early nutritional support in the patients after the liver transplantation. Methods: The nutritional support was used in 28 patients who had suffered the orthopetic liver transplantation (OLT).Parenteral nutrition was started as soon as possible after the operation. On the fourth day after the operation, enteral nutrition was also used. Results: 5 patients died from the postoperative complications. 23 patients survived and had been in better nutrition. Conclusion: The early nutrition support can play an important role in the patients recovery after OLT. EN should be administrated immediately when the gut functions.

AIM: To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on gelatinase,nitric oxide synthase and the permeability of brain blood barrier(BBB) in ischemia-reperfusion(I/R) mice. METHODS: Using cerebral I/R models, during the reperfusion period, 0.25 MPa (ATA) HBO were applied 5 times. matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-2,9, nitric oxide synthase(NOS) and evans blue (EB) in brain were measured. RESULTS: ①HBO had significanty effect on MMP-9, but had little effect on MMP-2. ② HBO decreased the activity of NOS.③ The maxium amount of EB in IR group was at 4 hours after reperfusion and gradually decreased at 11 h, 23 h,48 h, 72 h. CONCLUSION: HBO may decrease the activities of MMP-9,NOS and the permeability of BBB in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion mice.

Background Sphingosine-l-phospate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid and important messenger molecule in cells.It participates in the regulation of many biological processes,such as cell proliferation,migration,survival,differentiation,apoptosis,etc.Hypoxia is a trigger factor of choriod neovascularization (CNV) and pathological basis of many diseases,and retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells are involved in formation of CNV.However,the effects of S1P on proliferation and apoptosis of RPE cells are below understood.Objective This study was to investigate the influence of S1P on proliferation and apoptosis of human RPE cells under hypoxic conditions.Methods Human RPE cells line-D407 cells were cultured and passaged and generation 3-5 cells were used and divided into 6 groups.The cells were regularly cultured in the blank control group using DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum.CoCl2(200.00 μmol/L) was added into the colture medium for 2 hours in the hypooxic group.S1P of different concentrations (0.01,0.10,1.00,10.00 μmol/L) were added in culture medium 2 hours after the affection of 200.00 μmol/L CoCl2.The proliferative values of the cells were detected using WST-1 method as the absorbance (A value) and the proliferative rate of different groups were calculated.The apoptosis of the cells was assayed by Hoechst staining.The results were compared among different groups.Results Cultured cells showed the round-like in shape with clear nuclei and pigment.The proliferative values (A value) was 0.91 ±0.08,0.37±0.09,0.46±0.08,0.52±0.09,0.61 ±0.06,0.70±0.10 in the blank control group,hypoxic group and 0.01,0.10,1.00,10.00 μmol/L S1P groups,respectively,with a significant difference among the groups (F=21.104,P=0.000),and A values in various S1P groups were higher than those in the hypoxiac group (all at P<0.05).The proliferative rate was gradually raised with the increase of dose of S1P.Hoechst staining exhibited a few apoptosis cells in the blank control group,but in the hypoxic group,a lots of apoptosis cells were seen with the light-blue nuclei and condensable chromatin.However,the number of apoptosis cells was significantly decreased in various concentrations of S 1 P groups.The apoptosis rates were (1.21 ±0.08) %,(8.99 ±0.09) %,(6.60 ±0.08) %,(5.95 ±0.09) %,(4.81 ± 0.06)% and (3.96±0.10)% in the blank control group,hypoxic group and the 0.01,0.10,1.00,10.00 μmol/L S1P groups,respectively,with a significant difference among the groups (F =25.070,P =0.000).Compared with the hypoxia group,the cellular apoptosis rates of various S1P groups were lower (all at P<0.05).Conclusions Under the hypoxia condition,S1P can promote the proliferation of human RPE cells and inhibit apoptosis.
