Objective To investigate the effect of injection of air into the epidural space on the subarachnoid puncture during the combined spinal-epidural anesthesia (CSEA) .Methods Two hundred and ten ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ parturients who were at full term with a singleton fetus, aged 20-42 yr, weighing 57-82 kg (height 152-170cm) , undergoing cesarean section under CSEA, were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 70 each) : hanging drop technique group (group Ⅰ ) and injection of small volume of air group (group Ⅱ ) and injection of large volume of air group ( group Ⅲ ) . The epidural space was indentified using hanging drop technique in group Ⅰ and using loss of resistance to air technique in Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups. Injection of air was stopped as soon as the clear loss of resistance identified the epidural space in group Ⅱ , whereas all 4 ml of air was injected in group Ⅲ . After the epidural space was confirmed at L3,4 interspace, a 25-gauge spinal needle protruding 14 mm beyond the 18-gauge epidural needle was introduced through the epidural needle. Subarachnoid placement was confirmed by backflow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) . If no backflow of CSF was observed, the spinal needle was withdrawn and an epidural catheter was inserted through the epidural needle to perform epidural anesthesia. Successful subarachnoid puncture, failures to observe backflow of CSF and adverse reactions were recorded. Results The three groups were comparable with respect to age, height, body weight and gestation weeks. The success rate of subarachnoid puncture was 91% ,93% and 79% in Ⅰ ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups respectively, and it was significantly higher in Ⅰ and Ⅱ groups than in group Ⅲ ( P < 0.05) . There was no significant difference in the success rate of subarachnoid puncture between Ⅰand Ⅱ groups ( P > 0.05) . Bilateral segmental analgesia presented in all cases who received only epidural anesthesia after no backflow of CSF was observed, and the expected analgesia also presented in all cases in whom back flow of CSF was observed. No adverse reactions occurred. Conclusion Injection of air into the epidural space is related to the success of subarachnoid puncture during CSEA and injection of a large volume of air lowers the success rate.

Objective To study the effect of implanted stent or selected operation in patients with acute occlusion of right coronary artery during the emergency coronary arteriongraphy. Methods Forty-three patients with acute occlusion of right coronary artery who underwent the emergency coronary arteriongraphy were divided into two groups: the implanted stent group ( n = 23) during the emergency coronary arteriongraphy and the selected operation group (n =20) during the emergency coronary arteriongraphy . Then we observed the general data, the coronary artery pathological changes, preoperative and postoperative thrombus, the blood flow, remained stenosis and the prognosis. Results The implanted stent group was similar to the control group in general condition, but implanted stent group was significantly different from the control group in the near, intermediate and distal coronary artery pathological changes ( <0.05) . The control group was significantly different from the implanted stent group in the thrombus and slowly blood flow ( <0.05) . After three months, we reviewed coronary arteriongraphy and selected operation, The implanted stent group was significantly different from the control in the remained stenosis and slowly blood flow (<0.05) . But the implanted stent group was similar to the control groug in the thrombus and new proceeding cardiovascular events. Conclusion When thrombus appears in acute occlusion of right coronary artery, we can implant stent during the emergency coronary arteriongraphy if the thrombus is little, or we can select operation after PTCA on the contrary.

Objective To explore the adiponectin expression in the chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients and compare the level of edipanectin before and after antiviral therapy, and investigate the relationship between ediponectin and CHB. Methods Serum adiponectin was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the expression of adipanectin in liver tissue was detected by palymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunohistochemistry. The liver functions and HBV DNA were also tested. Liver biopsy tissue was assessed by fibrosis stage. Results Serum adipanectin in CHB liver cirrhosis [(20.65 ± 1.29) mg/L]was higher than that in other stage fibrosis, the values were (8.57 ± 0.28 ), (12.22 ± 0.64), (15.22 ± 0.77 ) mg/L (P< 0.01 ). Serum adiponectin was positively associated with fibrosis stage(r = 0.976,P< 0.01 ). There was no significant difference between HBV DNA and ALT (P> 0.05 ). Serum adipanectiu was independently associated with liver cirrhosis (r = 1.07, P = 0.02, 95% CI = 1.00-l.14).At the end of antiviral therapy,the expressions of adiponectin declined in patients with improved fibrosis and sustained viral response. Conclusion Serum adiponectin may play a role in CHB fibrosis, and reduced adipanectin level is associated with improved fibrosis after antivital therapy.

Objective To study the in vitro culture condition for melanoblasts from human foreskin tissue. Methods The skin tissue taken from foreskin of children was treated with 0.5% dispase Ⅱ to separate epidermis from dermis, then with trypsin to obtain single cell suspension, which was cultured in modified medium for melanoblasts, i.e., MCDB254 medium supplied with several cell growth factors. Finally, melanoblasts were obtained based on the difference of adhesion speed. The morphology and proliferation of cultured melanoblasts were observed under a light microscope. DOPA staining, immunostaining with anti- S-100 and -tyrosinase related protein 2 (TRP2) antibodies, and transmission electron microscopy were per- formed to identify the cultured melanoblasts. Results The cultured human melanocytes displayed a match-like shape, scattered arrangement, syrmnetric double poles, slim cell body, highly refractive nuclei; meanwhile, the melanoblasts exhibited plentiful cytoplasm, large volume, bipolar or irregular shape and clonal growth. Additionally, the melanocytes were positive for TRP2, S-100 and Dopa staining, while the melanoblasts were positive only for TRP2. Electron microscopy revealed the presence of mature melanin granules (stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ ) in melanocytes but immature melanin granules (stage Ⅰ ) in melanoblasts. Conclu- sion Stable pure culture of melanoblasts has been realized with the reformed medium, which may lay a foundation for the investigation into the mechanism of epidermal pigmentation.
