Objective To investigate whether Shenfu(SF) injection has protective effect on circulation function in infants undergoing cardio-pulmonary bypass.Methods Thirty-six patients within 3 years old with congenital heart disease were randomly divided into SF injection group(n=18) and control group(n=18).The SF group were treated with 1 mL/kg SF intravenous injection after inducing of anesthesia,the control group were infused with 1 mL/kg saline intravenously.The changes of hemodynamics during surgery,time needed for sinus rhythm emerging on electrocardiogram(ECG) after arteriae aotra patency dose of vaso-active drugs intra-and postoperatively and recovery time during postoperative period were observed.Results In SF group,mean artery pressure(MAP) was higher and heart rate(HR),central venous pressure(CVP) lower than control group(P

Objective To investigate the protective effects of different ATP-sensitive potassium (K_ ATP) channel openers. Pinacidil and Diazoxide, on myocardium injury in isolated rabbit hearts caused by ischemia/reperfusion and the possible changes after application of ATP-sensitve potassium channel blocker, 5-HD. Methods Observation was made on rabbit hearts perfused with a Langendorff apparatus. Forty rabbits were randomly divided into five respective groups: 1. Pinacidil (Group P), 2. Diazoxide (Group D), 3. 5-HD+Pinacidil (Group HP), 4. 5-HD+Diazoxide (Group HD) and 5. the control (Group C). All groups were subjected to 40 minutes of occlusion, followed by 20 minutes of reperfusion as cardiac arrested by cold cardioplegia. Any one of Pinacidil, Diazoxide , Pinacidil or Diazoxide mixed with 5-HD was infused 15 minutes before cardioplegic heart rested in the experimental group. Cardiac tissue ultrastructure, hemodynamics variables, levels of adenine nucleotides and lipid peroxide of the myocardium were measured. Results (1) In Group P, Group D and Group HP, the recovery of myocardial contractility and heart rate after reperfusion was faster but MDA level and the amount of albumen released were lower than Group C. Moreover levels of myocardial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were much higher compared with Group C. (2) In Group HP the recovery of myocardial contractility and heart rate was not as good as Group P, but its myocardium MDA level and amount of albumen released was higher than group P. Conclusion ATP-sensitive Potassium Channel openes may enhance myocardial protection against ischemia /reperfusion injury. The above effect of myocardial protection was only partially closed down by ATP-sensitive potassium channel blocker: 5-HD. The mitoK_ ATP channels on myocardium may be an important pathway of protection during ischemia/reperfusion process.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and adverse effect of brachial plexus block with morphine and ropivacaine for postoperative analgesia in children. Methods Forty-five children undergone upper extremity surgery were randomly divided into three groups (n = 15) , ie, Croup A (brachial plexus block with ropivacaine), Croup B (brachial plexus block with ropivacaine and subcutaneous injection of morphine) and Croup C (brachial plexus block with morphine and ropivacaine). The analgesic effect and the analgesia maintenance time were recorded by FLACC method at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 hours after operation. The adverse reactions were observed 48 hours after operation. Results There was no statistical difference between Croup A and Croup B in the analgesia maintenance time and the number of cases without analgesic therapy at each time point (P > 0. 05). Compared with Croup A or Croup B, the analgesia maintenance time in Croup C were significantly extended and the number of cases without analgesic therapy at 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 hours after operation were significantly increased (P < 0.05). The adverse effect was fairly light in three groups. Conclusion Brachial plexus block with morphine and ropivacaine may extend analgesia maintenance time effectively and safely in children undergone upper extremity surgery.

[Objective] To evaluate the significance of plasma endothelin in tubal pregnancy (TP) and to observe the regulatory effect of kidney-reinforcing, blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing Chinese herbal medicine on endothelin (ET) level. [Methods] Plasma ET level and ET-positive rate were detected in 40 cases of TP, 20 of intrauterinc pregnancy (IP) and 20 of chronic pelvic inflammation (CPF) and the relationship between the two above indexes in the patients were analyzed. TP patients were randomized to three groups; group A (n = 15) was treated with No. 1 Yishen Huoxue Pills (6g, tid) and Penyankang mixture (25mL, tid) for two treatment courses; group B (n = 15) was treated with aspirin (257ng, qd) for two treatment courses; group C ( n - 10) was not given any medicines. [Results] ET-positive rate and plasma ET level in postoperative TP patients were higher than those in IP patients ( P .05) . Chinese herbal medicine could decrease ET-positive rate and plasma ET level in postoperative TP patients (P

AIM To investigate the effects of trifluoperazine on naloxone precipitated withdrawal symptoms in morphine dependent rats and mice, and its pharmacological mechanisms. METHODS\ Naloxone precipitated tests in morphine dependent rats and mice were used. RESULTS\ Trifluoperazine(2～20 mg?kg -1 ) dose dependently inhibited naloxone precipitated withdrawal jumping, wet dog shakes, paw tremor and weight loss in morphine dependent mice. With ip trifluoperazine (5～20 mg?kg -1 ), most of positive withdrawal symptoms, including jumping, wet dog shakes, defeacation, weight loss, teeth chattering, salivation, diarrhea, ptosis and irritating, induced by naloxone in morphine dependent rats were significantly reduced. Apomorphine (2～8 mg?kg -1 ), a mixed DA 1/DA 2 receptor agonist, did not affect inhibition of trifluoperazine on naloxone precipitated withdrawal symptoms in morphine dependent mice. However, nifedipine(5～20 mg?kg -1 ), a L type voltage sensitive calcium channel blocker, enhanced a pharmacological action of trifluoperazine against naloxone precipitated symptoms in morphine dependent mice. CONCLUSION\ Trifluoperazine attenuates naloxone precipitated withdrawal symptoms in morphine dependent rats and mice by inhibiting the activity of post receptor calmodulin, but it does not antagonizes DA 2 receptor, in central nervous system.

Objective To study the effect and possible mechanism of diazoxide on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in diabetic rats, and the influence of insulin intervention which aims to maintain blood sugar levels within the normal range on the protective function of cardiomyocytes. Methods 126 health male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were intraperitoneally injected with one dose of 60 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ) to reproduce diabetic model. The diabetic rats were randomly divided into seven groups, with 18 rats in each group. Myocardial I/R model was established by 30 minutes ligation of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery, and 120 minutes blood circulation recover. Sham group was only threaded without ligation. Rats in I/R group, diazoxide group (DZ group), and Ottawa vine penicillin (WNT) group were infused intravenously with 2 mL of 0.1% dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), DZ (7 mg/kg), and WNT (15 μg/kg), respectively, after 25 minutes of ischemia. Sham group was only injected with 2 mL of 0.1% DMSO. DZ+WNT group was infused with WNT 5 minutes before the injection of DZ. Insulin intervention (RI) group received a continuous insulin infusion to maintain the blood sugar at the level of 4-6 mmol/L. RI+DZ group was infused with DZ after ischemia for 25 minutes based on blood sugar control. Hemodynamic parameters in each group were monitored continuously. The pathological changes of myocardium were observed with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. The expressions of phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt) and phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase-3β (p-GSK-3β) were determined by Western Blot. Results Compared with sham group, the cardiac functions of the intervention groups were significantly decreased, and severe myocardial injury was observed. Compared with I/R group, the cardiac functions of intervention groups were not obviously improved. However, after insulin intervention by which blood sugar was maintained within normal range, the cardiac function and myocardial injury were further aggravated. Compared with sham group (the expression value of sham group was set as 1), the expressions of p-Akt in other groups including I/R group, DZ group, RI group, and RI+DZ group showed no statistically significant difference (gray value: 1.07±0.09, 1.03±0.07, 1.07±0.07, 1.02±0.08 vs. 1.00, all P > 0.05). However, the expressions of p-Akt were decreased in WNT group and DZ+WNT group as compared with those of sham group and I/R group (gray value: 0.54±0.06, 0.51±0.05 vs. 1.00 and 1.07±0.09, all P < 0.05). The expressions of p-GSK-3βshowed no statistically significant difference in I/R group, DZ group, WNT group, and DZ+WNT group as compared with sham group (gray value: 0.97±0.08, 1.00±0.11, 0.98±0.06, 0.97±0.09 vs. 1.00, all P > 0.05). However, the expression of pGSK-3β was increased in RI group, RI+DZ group as compared with sham group and I/R group (gray value: 1.68±0.08, 1.70±0.05 vs. 1.00 and 0.97±0.08, all P < 0.05), and it was significantly higher in RI+DZ group than that of DZ group (gray value: 1.70±0.05 vs. 1.00±0.11, P < 0.05). Conclusions Diazoxide after myocardial injury could not protect the myocardium from I/R injury in diabetic rats, and did not trigger the activation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway. Insulin intervention by which blood sugar was maintaine d within the normal range exacerbates myocardial I/R injury in diabetic rats.

Background:Dysregulation of microRNA expression is involved in the carcinogenesis of many tumors,expression of miR-504 has been observed in many tumors,but its expression in primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)has not been reported. Aims:To explore the expression and clinical significance of miR-504 in HCC tissues and cells. Methods:Tumor and para-cancerous tissue in 85 HCC patients were collected. Five liver cancer cell lines and immortalized liver cell line were conventionally cultured. Effect of miR-504 expression on HepG2 cells proliferation was determined by CCK8 assay. The expression of miR-504 was determined by real time fluorescent quantitative PCR. Relationships between expression of miR-504 and clinicopathological features and prognosis of HCC patients were analyzed. Results:Compared with normal liver cells,expression of miR-504 was significantly downregulated in five liver cancer cells(P < 0. 05). Up-regulation of miR-504 inhibited proliferation of HepG2 cells,and down-regulation of miR-504 promoted proliferation of HepG2 cells. miR-504 expression in tumor tissue was significantly decreased than that in corresponding para-cancerous tissue. Expression of miR-504 was correlated with tumor differentiation(P = 0. 002),TNM stage(P = 0. 021),alpha fetoprotein(P = 0. 012)and portal vein tumor thrombus(P = 0. 003),but not with gender,age,tumor size and tumor number. Survival in HCC patients with lower miR-504 expression was significantly shorter than that in patients with high expression(P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Expression of miR-504 is downregulated in HCC,and is correlated with the prognosis of patients,suggesting that miR-504 can be used as an independent predictor for prognosis of HCC patients.

Objective To find a more suitable approach to pediatric anesthesia during laparoscopic operation to alleviate stress response.Methods Forty patients,1 to 3 years of age,ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ,underwent general anesthesia(group GA)and combined general epidural anesthesia(group GEA)during their laparoscopic operation.Heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),ECG,SPO2,PETCO2,blood gas,plasma epinephrine,plasma norepinephrine,plasma IL-6 and IL-10 were monitered and recorded five minutes before anesthesia(T0),pre-pneumoperitoneum(T1),5 min after pneumoperitoneum(T2),30 min after pneumoperitoneum(T3),30 min after operation(T4)and 24 h after operation(T5).Results(1)HR,MAP of group GA were increased obviously at T2,T3,T4 compared to T0(P0.05).Significant difference was found at T1,T2,T3 and T4 between group GA and group GEA(t=4.749,10.349,13.632,10.051,P0.05).Plasma IL-10 at T1,T2,T3,T4 were higher than that at T0 in both groups(P
