Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of desogestrel ethinylestradiol in the treatment of dysfunctional uterine bleeding ( adolescent Dub ) .Methods 86 cases with adolescent functional bleeding were divided into the treatment group and control group ,43 cases in each group .The control group received conjugated estrogen(Premarin) treatment,the treatment group was given desogestrel ethinylestradiol treatment .The hemostatic effect and drug adverse reaction of the two groups were observed .Results The cure rate of the treatment group was 65.1%,that in the control group was 23.3%,there was significant difference between the two groups (χ2 =15.28,P<0.01).The hemostatic time of the treatment group was (33.24 ±12.85)h,which was shorter than (50.31 ± 16.32)h of the control group (t=5.39,P<0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reactions between the two groups had no significant difference (χ2 =0.49,P>0.05).Conclusion Desogestrel ethinylestradiol in the treatment of ado-lescent functional bleeding has exact curative effect ,it has low incidence of adverse reactions and better acceptance .

Objective To investigate and compare the actions of vecuronium and atracurium on adult and embryonic-type nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (?-and ?-nAChR) at skeletal muscle cell membrane. Methods The adult and embryonic nAChRs were heterologously expressed in HEK 293 cells. Peak currents induced by actions of vecuronium and atracurium at ?-and ?-nAChR were recorded in HEK 293 cells, using whole cell patch clamp technique. Results Vecuronium and atracurium competitively inhibited ?-and ?-nAChR in HEK 293 cells. The inhibitor concentrations for half-maximal response (IC50) for vecuronium and atracurium ate-nAChR were (8.3 ? 2.6) ?mol/L and (24.2 ? 10.5) ?mol/L respectively; The IC50 values for vecuronium and atracurium at e-nAChR were (55.0 44 28.4) ?mol/L and (183.2 ? 39.2) ?mol/L respectively.Conclusion According to IC50 values for both adult and embryonic type nAChR, vecuronium is more potent than atracurium on e-and 7-nAChR. Embryonic nAChR is less sensitive to vecuronium and atracurium than adult-type nAChR.

Objective To investigate the effects of pancuronium on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells) and to determine if pancuronium has direct effects on PC cells.Methods PC12 cells (purchased from Institute of Cytology, Chinese Academy of Science) were cultured in DMEM containing penicillin and glutamine. nAChR in PC12 cells were stimulated with different concentrations of Ach ( 10, 30, 100, 300, 1 000 ?mol?L-1 ). Ach-mediated inward currents were recorded using whole-cell patch clamp technique with holding potential set at - 80 mV. To investigate the effects of pancuronium on nAChR in PC cells, the PC12 cells were perfused with different concentrations of pancuronium (0.01,0.1, 1, 10, 100, 1 000 ?mol ? L-1 ) before Ach 1 ?mol?L-1 was added. Results Inward currents were elicited by stimulation of nAChR with Ach in a concentration-dependent manner. 93.7% of nAChRs could be activated by 1 ?mol ? L1 Ach. Pancuronium reversibly suppressed the currents in a concentration-dependent manner compared to the control currents elicited by 1 ?mol?L-1 Ach. 1 ?mol?L-1 pancuronium could almost completely suppressed the currents elicited by 1 ?mol ? L-1 Ach.Conclusion Pancuronium could inhibit nAChR in PC12 cells and reduce catecholamine release.

Aim Expressing muscle acetylcholin e receptors in mammallian cells using receptor clone technique.Methods The cDNA coding for the ?,?,?, ?,?-subunits of the mouse muscle nAC hR in pSP65, pSP64,pBS SK(-) are subcloned into pcDNA3.1+ by gene recobinant technique and then transfect HEK293 cells using lipofection technique.The ?-n AChR and ?-nAChR are transiently expressed in HEK293 cells membrane. Recording the response of transfected HEK293 cells to acetylcholine by using the whole- cell clamp technique.Results Transfected HEK293 cells may produ ce a inward current as appling acetylcholine.The current values are acctylcholin e-concentration-dependent.Conclusion ?-nAChR or ?-nAChR i s expressed successfully in HEK293 cells.

Objective To investigate the intralaboratury and interlabomtory variations of measurements for ALT and AST among four domestic reference laboratories. Methods The International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) reference procedures and IFCC procedures without pyridoxal 5-phosphate (PLP) were performed in the reference laboratories. Intralaboratory and interlaboratory CVs were compared with those in 2006 and 2007 IFCC External Quality Assessment Scheme for Reference Laboratories (RELA). Meanwhile, deviations of results for ALT, AST and AST/ALT between two methods were calculated. Results Interlaboratory CVs were generally higher than intralaboratory CVs. Interlaboratory CVs among the 41 laboratories were lower than these in RELA. Results of ALT and AST using method with PLP were higher than those using method without PLP. Difference of AST/ALT ratio between the two methods was significant. Conclusions For reference measurement of the 2 enzymes, interlaboratory CVs of < 3.5 are achievable on frozen serum materials. Measurements on lyophilized materials may have higher CVs. Further studies are needed for the investigation of the differences between results obtained in the absence and presence of PLP.

Objective To summarize the nursing care for one successful haploidentical allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (haplo-BMT) for one patient with severe aplastic anemia type-Ⅱ (SAA-Ⅱ). The patient accepted an umbilical cord blood transfusion sequentially combined with the second haplo-BMT after an engraftment failure of the first haplo-BMT. The experience of nursing care will be discussed and shared for patients with a second haplo-BMT. Methods The comprehensive nursing cares were utilized during haplo-BMT, it included preventive measures for secondary infections, closely control of side effects, promptly nursing intervention for gastrointestinal mucositis, hemorrhagic cystitis and epilepsy, psychological nursing for appeasing emotional variations, and addition of intravenous indwelling needle if necessary. Results The patient achieved a successful stem cell engraftment and survived a long-term granulopenia (granulocytes<0.1×109/L) which lasted for 52 days with a recovery of varied complications. Conclusion The comprehensive nursing care can reduce the risk for secondary infections and other complications, it shed a new light on second allogeneic bone marrow transplantation for complicated patients
