Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the value of K-ras mutation in DNA extracted from the plasma as clinical indicator of colorectal cancer. Methods Point mutation at codon 12 of K-ras gene was assayed by polymerase chain reaction of sequence-specific primers in DNA extracted from the plasma and tumors from 32 patients with colorectal cancer. The mutation was further confirmed by dideoxy-mediated chain-termination method of DNA sequencing. Results Fourteen patients (44%) had a codon 12 K-ras mutation within their primary tumors and identical mutations were found in the plasma DNA of 13 patients (93%). Mutant DNA was not detected in the plasma specimens of 18 patients whose tumors tested negative for K-ras alterations or in 5 healthy control subjects. Conclusion Preliminary results suggest the detection of K-ras mutations in circulating DNA extracted from the plasma specimens may have some clinical uti- lity in the detection of colorectal cancer.

Objective To study the influence of anesthesia methoda on early postoperative cognitive function in elder orthopedics patients. Methods Fifty patients aged more than 65 years old with fractured femur randomly received general anesthesia(group G, 28 cases) or unilateral combined spinal epidural anesthesia(group E,22 cases). The assessment of postoperative cognitive {unction referred to the scores that achieved in neuropsychological testing with mini mental state examination (MMSE) by special psychological person on the day before and the first day after surgery. It was considered to he postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) when the score was ≥1 standard deviation(SD). Results The score of MMSE was lower in group G than that in group E on the first day alter surgery(P<0. 05). The incidence of POCD on the first day after surgery was higher in group G than that in group E(42.9% vs. 13. 6%) (P<0. 05). Conclusion Compared to combined spinal epidural anesthesia, more POCD takes place in the eldedy underwent orthopedic surgery under general anesthesia.

This study was aimed to explore the resource diversity and microbial inhibition activity of endophytic fungi from medicinal plant Plantago asiatica L. The endophytic fungi were isolated from the root, stem and leaf of the host by tissue inoculation culture and five plant pathogenic fungi and four bacteria strains used as indicating microbes to test microbial inhibition activity by agar plate antagonistic action and modified agar gel diffusion methods. The results indicated that thirteen fungal endophytic strains were isolated from the host. Most of them came from stem, then leaf, and root as the least in number. The isolated strains attribute to five genera, two fam-ilies, and two orders based on morphological characteristics. For the isolated strains, eleven of them were found to have some microbial inhibition activities against one or more indicating fungi, making up 84.6% of the total iso-lates. Six isolated strains had some antimicrobial activities against one or more indicating bacteria, amounting to 46.2% of the total isolates. Three isolated active strains, which are PAEFS001, PAEFS007 and PAEFS008, ex-hibited evident inhibition activities against five kinds of pathogenic fungi used in the trials respectively. The strain of PAEFS001 ascribed to Ozonium sp. Both strains of PAEFS007 and PAEFS008 ascribed to Aspergillus sp. One active strain of PAEFS003 showed evident antibacterial activities to Bacillus subtilis and Staphyloccus aureus, which belonged to Fusidium sp. The endophytic fungi from medicinal plant Plantago asiatica L. have evident an-timicrobial activities. Their inhibition activities against pathogenic fungi have relatively broad spectrum. And their inhibition activities to both Bacillus subtilis and Staphyloccus aureus as G+ are evident and have certain selectivi-ty. It is feasible to find new bioactive compounds associated with endophytic fungi from Plantago asiatica L. Fur-ther research and development of the endophyic fungi will be important for the integrated utilization of the host.

Objective To investigate the effects of different stabilizers, time and temperature before centrifugation on the stability of homocysteine (Hcy) and other related thiols levels involving EDTA-containing whole blood.Methods Blood was drawn from 17 healthy adults and collected into tubes containing EDTA, EDTA plus NaF and EDTA plus 3-deazaadenosine(3DA),then stored on crush ice(0-4 ℃) immediately or at room temperature(25 ℃).Plasma was separated at 0, 3, 6, 24 and 48 hours, respectively.The levels of plasma total Hcy (tHcy), total cysteine (tCys), tatal cysteinylglycine (tCysGly) and tatal glutathione (tGSH) were measured by HPLC.The plasma immediately separated was used as baseline sample. Results In EDTA tubes stored at room temperature, tHcy levels increased by 38.5%, 64.2%, 141.9%, 225.4% for 3, 6, 24, and 48 h, respectively.The levels of tCysGly and tGSH increased by 20.0% and 37.9% within 3 h, however, tCys decreased by 3.5%.The levels of the thiols increase by less than 5% up to 6 h in EDTA tubes stored on crush ice.In EDTA-3DA and EDTA-NaF tubes, no statistical differences were observed in the plasma levels of tHcy, tCys,tCysGly and tGSH compared with their respective baseline values at room temperature for 3 h(EDTA-3DA tubes:F=0.01,0.94,0.09,0.01,all P>0.05;EDTA-NaF tubes:F=0.85,0.04,0.03,0.02,all P>0.05).Conclusions The EDTA-plasma levels of tHcy and other related thiols are time and temperature-dependent. There is a strong need for standardization of blood sample collection and processing in tHcy and other thiols assays. The plasma concentrations of tHcy, tCys, tCysGly and tGSH were stable for 3 h at least in the EDTA-3DA and EDTA-NaF tubes kept at room temperature.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and efficiency of monitoring noninvasive respiratory effort and respiratory load-capacity ratio in patients undergoing weaning from mechanical ventilation by mean inspiratory pressure(Pi) which were calculated on the basis of the formula, Pi = 5 × P 0.1 × Ti, as well as the noninvasire tension index calculated from Pi(TTIi). Method Totally 12 patients undergoing weaning from mechanical ventilation were enrolled in the study and their underlying diseases included COPD( n = 9), ARDS( n = 2) and status asthmaticus(n = 1) respectively. Esophageal pressure(PesoM) was monitored via the insertion of esophageal balloon and corrected esophageal pressure(Peso) was acquired by subtracting elastic pressure of chest wall from PesoM. P 0.1, Maximal inspiratory pressure on esophageal pressure curve(MIPeso) and on airway pressure curve(MIPaw) was measured with conventional technique. Pi was calculated on Pi = 5 × P 0.1 × Ti. Pi and MIPaw were used to calculate the noninvasive tension-time index TTIi, whereas Peso and MIPeso were used to calculate the invasive counterpart TTIeso. Comparisons, Correlation and Bland-Altman agreement analysis were made between P0.1 and Peso as well as between TIIi and TTIeso. Results There were no significant differences between Pi and Peso as well as between TTIi and TTIeso(P > 0.05) ,and the correlation coefficients were 0.974 and 0.957 respectively. In the agreement analysis, the mean difference between Pi and Peso, and between TTIi and TTIeso were lower than the minimal values of(Peso + PiSB )/2 and of(TIIi + TTIeso)/2, respectively. Conclusions There is a good correlation between Pi and Peso as well as between TTIi and TTIeso, in which Pi is calculated calculated from P 0.1 and in turn the TTIi is calculated from Pi. The noninvasive indices including Pi and TTIi can be used to monitor respiratory effort and respiratory load-capacity in patients undergoing weaning from mechanical ventilation.
