ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of ulinastatin on perioperative renal function in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.MethodsSixty ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients of both sexes aged 35-64 yr weighing 50-75 kg with normal blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) before operation undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n = 30 each):control group (group C) and ulinastatin group ( group U).Anesthesia was induced with midazolam,fentanyl,etomidate and vecuronium and maintained with isoflurane inhalation,propofol TCI,continuous remifentanil infusion and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium.The patients were tracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.PET CO2 was maintained at 30-35 mm Hg.Ulinastatin 400 000 IU in normal saline 20 ml was infused iv after induction of anesthesia.Ulinastatin 200 000 IU was then infused every 4 h until 48 h after operation.Urine volume and the amount of furosemide administered were recorded before anhepatic phase,and during anhepatic and neohepatic phase.Venous blood samples and urine were collected before induction of anesthesia (T1),at 15 min of anhepatic phase ( T2 ),at 15min of neohepatic phase (T3),at the end of operation (T4) and 48 h after operation (T5) for determination of serum concentrations of BUN,Cr and creatinine clearance rate and urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG)activity and microalbumin concentration.ResultsCompared with group C,ulinastatin significantly decreased the amount of furosemide administered and increased urine volume during anhepatic and neohepatic phase,decreased serum Cr concentration,increased creatinine clearance rate at T2.5,decreased urinary NAG activity and microalbumin concentration at T4.5 and serum BUN concentration at T3-s.ConclusionUlinastatin has protective effect on rehal function during perioperative period in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and relative factors of cognitive disfunction among the community- dwelling old adults. Methods 766 participants over 60 years old dwelling in Luzhou, Sichuan, China were enrolled with Multi-stage stratified sampling. Information about sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle, health condition, nutrition were interviewed, and their cognitive function was evaluated with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Results The prevalence of cognitive disfunction was 19.7% among them. Gender (male vs. female, OR=0.577), age (over 90 years vs. 60- 64 years, OR=29.857), administrator (administrator vs. not administrator, OR= 0.360), farmer (farmer vs. not farmer, OR=2.121), nutrition (malnutrition vs. eutrophia, OR=2.460), body weight (underweight vs. normal weight, OR=3.222), living status (UN-Habitat vs. living alone, OR=0.658), marital status (widowed vs. not widowed, OR=2.208), education attainment (junior college vs. illiteracy, OR=0.328), income (over 1000 yuan vs. no income, OR=0.596) significantly related with cognitive disfunction (P<0.05). Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that old age, occupation (farmer) and malnutrition were independent risk factors for cognitive disfunction. Conclusion The cognitive disfunction related with multi-factors, and need more effective and available intervention in the old adults.

Objective To investigate the effect of prunella vulgaris extract on inflammation,macrophage phenotype,and phagocytic ability in septic mice,and analyze whether Toll like receptor 4(TLR4)/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway involved in its mechanism.Methods C57BL/6 mice were divided into the control group,the model group and the prunella vulgaris extract low(25 mg/kg),medium(50 mg/kg)and high(100 mg/kg)dose groups.Except for the control group,all other groups of mice were injected intraperitoneally with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)to prepare sepsis model.Each group was given corresponding medication by gavage.After 24 hours of administration,serum tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin(IL)-1β,high mobility group protein B1(HMGB1),IL-10 levels,the proportion of M1 type(CD11b+F4/80+)and M2 type(CD206+F4/80+)macrophages in peritoneal macrophages,the phagocytotic capacity of macrophages,the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)messenger RNA(mRNA)and arginase 1(Arg1)mRNA in peritoneal macrophages and expression levels of TLR4,NF-κB p65 and their phosphorylated proteins in macrophages were detected.Results Compared with the control group,serum TNF-α,IL-1β,HMGB1,proportion of M1 type macrophages in abdominal cavity,mean fluorescence intensity and phagocytotic capacity of macrophages,iNOS mRNA,TLR4,phosphorylated NF-κB p65(p-NF-κB p65)/NF-κB p65 protein expression were increased in the model group(P<0.05).IL-10,proportion of M2 type macrophages and Arg1 mRNA expression were decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,serum TNF-α,IL-1β,HMGB1,proportion of M1 type macrophages in abdominal cavity,iNOS mRNA,TLR4,p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 protein expression were decreased successively in the prunella vulgaris extract low,medium and high dose groups(P<0.05).IL-10,proportion of M2 macrophages,mean fluorescence intensity and phagocytotic capacity of macrophages and Arg1 mRNA expression were increased successively(P<0.05).Conclusion By inhibiting TLR4/NF-κB pathway,prunella vulgaris extract may inhibit the polarization of peritoneal macrophages into M1 type and promote their polarization to M2 type,enhance macrophage phagocytic ability and alleviate LPS induced inflammatory response in septic mice.

Bus drivers, as an important occupational group in urban public transportation system, are prone to suffer from work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) due to prolonged fixed postures and repetitive movements. The T/WSJD 14.9-2024 Ergonomic Guidelines for the Prevention of Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders: Part 9: Bus Driving Work is a recommended standard developed to prevent WMSDs among bus drivers. This standard, guided by the principles of T/WSJD 14.1-2020 Ergonomic Principle for the Prevention of Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders: Part 1: General Principles, is based on a preliminary work of comprehensive review of domestic and international research, workplace on-site surveys and questionnaires, data analysis, and factor identification. It defines the scope of application, identifies relevant risk factors and potential affected body parts, and offers ergonomic solutions in the form of intervention examples. The issuance of this guideline as a organization standard will facilitate the promotion and implementation of intervention measures.

Objective To investigate the prediction of maternal HBV transmission by breast milk of postpartum women with chronic HBV infection.Methods HBV DNA levels in serum and breast milk weredetected by fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 64 postpartum women with chronic HBV infection.HBV DNA≥1.0×103copies/ml was defined as positive,and correlation analysis was conducted.Results HBV DNA positive rate was 78.1%and 62.5%in serum and breast milk respectively,with a HBV DNA range of 1.05×103~3.87 ×104copies/ml in breast milk.When HBV DNA in serum was 1.0×105~1.0×107copies/ml,the HBV DNA positive rate in breast milk reached to 94.9%;however,when HBV DNA in serum was 1.0×103~1.0×104copies/ml,the positive rate in breast milk was only 18.2%.Conclusion The HBV DNA positive rate of breast milk in postpartum women with chronic HBV infection is correlated with the HBV DNA levels in serum;and breast-feeding should be avoided for postpartum women with HBV DNA≥1.0×105copies/ml in the serum.So serum HBV DNA detection is necessary in antenatal care for women with chronic HBV infection.

A male patient of acute onset is reported, whose main clinical manifestations were ataxia and dysarthria, with elevated carcinoembryonic antigen, non-small cell lung cancer antigen, carbohydrate antigen 72-4, positive anti-Yo antibody. The patient′s gastroscopy and biopsy result suggested gastric cancer, and his symptoms got better after radical surgery. Anti-Yo-associated paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration complicated with gastric adenocarcinoma was diagnosed. If encountering cases of ataxia or dysarthria in clinical work, the possibility of paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration should be considered and evidence for tumor should be searched, so as to avoid missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis.
