Objective To investigate the influence of acute hypervolemic hemodilution(HHD)on pharmacokinetics of propofol.Methods Sixteen ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 20-55 yrs undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia combined with epidural analgesia were randomly allocated into 2 groups(n=8 each);Ⅰ control group and Ⅱ HHD group.The patients were premedicated with intramuscular phenobarbital 0.1 g and scopolamine 0.3 mg.Right internal jugular vein was cannulated for CVP monitoring and blood sampling.Radial artery was cannulated for BP monitoring.All patients in both groups received lactated Ringer's solution(0.7 ml?kg~(-1)? number of hours of fasting before operation)before induction of general anesthesia.In HHD group 4% gelofusine 20 ml?kg~(-1) was infused at the rate of 20 ml?kg~(-1)?h~(-1).Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.04 mg?kg~(-1),fentanyl 4 ?g?kg~(-1) and propofol 1.5 mg?kg~(-1).Tracheal intubation was facilitated by succinylcholine 2 mg?kg~(-1).Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane,fentanyl,vecuronium and epidural analgesia.ECG,BP, SpO_2,P_(ET)CO_2 and CVP were continuously monitored.Blood samples were taken at 1,2,4,6,10,15,30,45, 60,75,90,120,150,180,240,300 and 360 min after propofol was given Ⅳ for determination of plasma concentration of propofol(HPLC).Pharmacokinetic data were analyzed by 3P97 pharmacokinetic software.Results The two groups were comparable with respect to demographic data.Blood propofol concentrations were significantly lower in HHD group than in control group at 1,2,4,6,10 min after propofol injection(P<0.01), thereafter there was no significant difference in plasma propofol concentration between the two groups(P>0.05). The pharmacokinetic profile of propofol was well described by a standard three-compartment model.In HHD group V_C was significantly increased,K_(10) and Cl were significantly decreased and T_(1/2?) was significantly prolonged as compared with control group.Conclusion Acute HHD increases V_C,prolongs the T_(1/2?) and decreases K_(10) and Cl, suggesting that the effect of propofol may be potentiated by acute HHD.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical efficacy of rectocele repair with longitudinal incision and transverse suture on the vaginal posterior wall.
METHODSOne hundred and forty-six patients with rectocele were enrolled in our study from August 1999 to August 2003. The patients were randomly divided into two groups, and received traditional repair with longitudinal incision and longitudinal suture (control group, n=74) or repair with longitudinal incision and transverse suture on the vaginal posterior wall (study group, n=72). The efficacy and complications were compared between the two groups.
RESULTSIn the study group,only one case (1.4%) had no effect, and the total effective rate was 98.7%. The mean course of treatment was (11.0+/- 1.9) days. Only two cases (2.7%) had postoperative complication. In the control group, 8 cases (11.1%) had no effect, and the total effective rate was 88.9%. The mean course of treatment was (17.4+/- 1.6) days. Twenty-nine cases (40.3%) had postoperative complications. There were significant differences in the efficacy and complications between the two groups (both P< 0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe refined rectocele repair with longitudinal incision and transverse suture on the vaginal posterior wall has good efficacy with shorter curative period and less complications.

To test the hypothesis that concentration polarization of atherogenic lipids may occur in the arterial system and play an important role in localization of atherosclerosis, we simulated and measured in vitro the luminal surface concentration of low density lipoprotein (LDL) in local stenosis at the distal end of carotid artery by number simulation and laser scanning confocal microscopy, then we designed carotid stenosis model to test the role of LDL concentration polarization in atherogenesis. The in vitro experiment showed that the luminal surface LDL concentration was higher than the bulk concentration as predicted by the concentration polarization theory. The relative luminal surface LDL concentration changed with the flow velocity and ratio of stenosis. The wall concentration of LDL was highest in the round tube with 40% stenosis at the same velocity, while the wall concentration of LDL was higher when Re was 250 than Re was 500 at the same extent of narrowness. The animal experiment also revealed that general atherogenic plaques obviously occurred at the distal end of local stenosis where concentration polarized. The results strongly support our hypothesis that concentration polarization of lipoproteins occurs in local stenosis at the distal end of carotid artery, and this in turn promotes the localization of atherosclerosis which develops in the arterial system.

This study was purposed to investigate the role of post-thaw infused donor cells for predicting engraftment and hematopoietic reconstitution after unrelated cord blood transplantation (UCBT). The retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 97 children with malignant or non-malignant diseases received single unit UCBT from August 1999 to April 2010. The impact of pre-freezing and post-thaw cell dose of total nucleated cells (TNC), CD34(+) cells and colony-forming units-granulocyte/macrophage (CFU-GM) on engraftment and hematological recovery after UCBT was analyzed. Unrelated donors were from Guangzhou cord blood bank (GZCBB) entirely. The results indicated that the pre-freezing TNC (/kg) (mean ± SD: 7.65 × 10⁷ ± 4.26 × 10⁷; median: 6.34 × 10⁷), CD34(+)cells (/kg) (mean ± SD: 4.64 × 10(5) ± 4.47 × 10⁵; median: 3.03 × 10⁵) and CFU-GM (/kg) (mean ± SD: 0.79 × 10⁵ ± 1.09 × 10⁵; median: 0.57 × 10⁵) showed a good correlation with their post-thaw counterparts including TNC(/kg) (mean ± SD: 6.98 × 10⁷ ± 4.12 × 10⁷; median: 6.00 × 10⁷), CD34(+)cells (/kg)(Mean ± SD: 6.86 × 10⁵ ± 8.56 × 10⁵; Median: 4.17 × 10⁵), and CFU-GM (/kg) (mean ± SD: 0.52 × 10⁵ ± 0.52 × 10⁵; median: 0.39 × 10⁵) (r = 0.952, p < 0.001; r = 0.794, p < 0.001; r = 0.478, p < 0.001). Either the pre-freezing or post-thaw number of infused CFU-GM was significant higher in patients who achieved engraftment (n = 70) than those who suffered graft failure (n = 22) (p = 0.023 and 0.011, respectively), but no significant difference of TNC and CD34(+) cells dose (pre-freezing or post-thaw) were found between these two groups. Pre-freezing CFU-GM, TNC, CD34(+) cell dose negatively correlated with the time of neutrophil engraftment (r = -0.285, p = 0.018; r = -0.396, p = 0.002; r = -0.373, p = 0.002), as well as the post-thaw number of TNC and CD34(+) cells (r = -0.260, p = 0.031; r = -0.483, p < 0.001), whereas only pre-freezing CD34(+) cells showed a significant correlation with platelet engraftment time (r = -0.352, p = 0.013). It is concluded that the CFU-GM amount is useful for predicting engraftment of UCBT, while pre-freezing hematopoietic cell doses show superior correlation with the speed of engraftment and hematopoietic reconstitution than their post-thaw counterparts in pediatric recipients, suggesting that it is essential to perform hematopoietic potency assay on each cord blood unit prior to listing or release for administration.

OBJECTIVETo study the incidence of injuries among residents living in the countryside of Huanghe delta area.
METHODSA household questionnaire survey was conducted to 15 276 residents in 20 villages of Dongying municipality of Shandong province with a stratified-cluster sampling on their injuries from March 1, 2002 to February 28, 2003. Data were analyzed with Excel 2000 and SPSS 11.0 software.
RESULTSThe crude incidence of injuries was 5.90% in total, and the standardized incidence was 5.93%. It was higher in men (7.79%) than in women (4.03%). There were 19 deaths with 20 cripples. The standardized death rate was 122.56 per 100 000 with leading causes of injuries was blunt or by sharp articles (24.61%), traffic accident (24.17%), falls (22.62%) and animal bites (13.08%). Peak incidence of age group was high in 25 - 54 age group and 0 - 4 age group (> 6.0%). 267 cases (29.60%) inpatients had had about 15.89 days hospitalization for each case. Rest of each case with injury had 19.20 days of rest. Direct economic loss for treatment would cost 904.85 RMB Yuan and 10.15 days with care takers and 221.88 RMB for other cost. The potential years of life lost was 24 years, the working years of life lost was 19.6 year, the valued years of life lost was 8.7 year, and the standardized period expected years of life lost was 31.73 year.
CONCLUSIONInjury was common and frequently occurred among residents in the countryside of rural Huanghe delta areas, that seriously endangered the health care systems and burden on families.

OBJECTIVEEstablishing cDNA microarray, in order to study functional genomics of Salvia miltiorrhiza.
METHODTotal RNA samples were prepared from S. miltiorrhiza roots using a modified CTAB method. mRNA was isolated by Quichprep Micro mRNA Purification Kit from Pharmacia. Then cDNA was synthesized and cloned into the EcoRI-XhoI sites of the ZAP Express vector using a cDNA synthesis kit, and the ligation mixture was packaged using a ZAP-cDNA Gigapack Gold III cloning kit (Stratagene). The single phage was isolated for PCR amplification, Aliquots of the PCR reactions were analyzed in a 1.5% agarose gel to verify the quality of PCR. The remaining cDNA was purified by Multiscreen filter plates (Millipore) and aliquots were analyzed by agarose gel again to verify the quality of purification. Clones passed verification was resuspended in 15 microL 50% DMSO for arraying. An actin gene from S. miltiorrhiza was used for positive control. PloyA and 50% DMSO was used for negative controls.
RESULTBacterial colonies containing cNDAs of S. miltiorrhiza were inserted with average insert size of 0. 5 kb to 2. 5 kb. Total 4 354 genes were singled out from the first 8 736 PCR product and used for cDNA microarray manufacture. Single color fluorescence hybridization showed that all positive controls had signals while negative controls had no signals.
CONCLUSIONIt was the first cDNA microarray about traditional Chinese herbs especially for geoherbs. It could be a powerful tool for studying functional genomics of S. miltiorrhiza.
