Objective: To compare cumulative dose technique with single dose technique for determining dose-re sponse relationship of rocuronium during balanced anesthesia. Method: Thirty-four ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients, aged 23- 65 years, undergoing elective surgery,were randomly allocated to single dose group(n=24) or cumulative dose group (n=10). Single dose group was further divided into 4 subgroups receiving 150,200,250 or 300?g/kg of rocuronium re spectively. In cumulative dose group, the initial dose of 150 or 200 ?g/kg rocuronium was followed by a second dose de termined individually to produce about 90% neuromuscular block. The ulnar nerve was stimulated at the wrist to mea sure the accelography of thumb adduction. The relationship between probit-transformed depression of first twitch height of TOF and the logarithm dose of rocuronium was analysed using linear regression. Result: ED_50 and ED_95 of rocuronium were 193.6?69.1 and 367.2?72. 7?g/kg respectively in single dose group, and 213.0?55.1 and 418.5? 61.7?g/kg respectively in cumulative dose group. No statistically significant differences were found in the slope,inter cept,ED_50 and ED_95 values between two groups. Conclusion: The two-dose cumulative technique can be used as effec tively as traditional single dose technique in determining the dose-response relationship of rocuronium.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of a new generation bioimpedance cardiac output monitor as compared with thermodilution and end expiratory CO 2 techniques Methods Sixteen patients (14 males, 2 females) aged (58?12) years undergoing elective coronary artery bypass (CAB) surgery were studied Cardiac output was measured after CAB surgery in ICU using a new generation bioimpedance cardiac output monitor(Rheo Bioimpedance Hemodynamic monitor) and conventional thermodilution technique in 16 patients and end expiratory CO 2 technique in 10 patients Cardiac output was also measured with Rheo Bioimpedance Hemodynamic monitor in 200 healthy volunteers consisting of equal numbers of male and female The volunteers of each sex were further divided into 5 equal groups of 20 each: (1)20 29 years, (2)30 39 years, (3)40 49 years, (4)50 59 years and (5)60 70 years Results Cardiac outputs measured by bioimpedance and thermodilution techniques were well correlated (r=0 83) and there was also a good correlation between cardiac outputs measured by bioimpedance and end expiratory CO 2 techniques(r=0 88) Cardiac out measured with Rheo Bioimpedance Hemodynamic monitor in 200 healthy volunteers showed that there was a significant difference in cardiac output between 60 70 years age group and the other age groups in both male and female Conclusions Cardiac output and other hemodynamic parameters measured with the new generation bioimpedance hemodynamic monitor are accurate and can be used for preoperative cardiovascular function evaluation and postoperative monitoring of dynamic changes in circulatory function

BACKGROUND: The residual root of anterior teeth are usually repaired by means of post and cores plus porcelain fused metal crown in clinic, and the retention force is mainly provided by the post because of the deletion of crown, so the retention force provided by the post is directly correlated with the long-term effect of repair.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the changes of retention of cast metal post and core restorations with different convergence angles, and investigate the influence of convergence angles on retention.DESIGN: A repeated observational measurement.SETTING: Department of Prosthodontics, West China School of Stomatology, Sichuan University.MATERIALS: The experiments were carried out in the building of high polymer material of Sichuan University in May 2005. Fifty-four simulated tooth roots were manufactured by the numerical control machine tools.They were divided into six groups according to the convergence angles of post being 0°, 3.93°, 5.71°, 7.48°, 11.31° and 14.71°, with nine specimens in each group.METHODS: ① Manufacture of the standard specimens: The tooth roots with the convergence angles of 0°,3.93°, 5.71°, 7.48°, 11.31° and 14.71° were prepared with the digital control precision machine. ② Manufacture of the cast post and cores: The post and core wax patterns of the specimens were made in the condition similar to the clinical practice. The post and cores were cast and tried in, necessary grinding was made to ensure the adoption of the posts and the specimens. Then the posts were luted to the specimens with ZPC after the posts and the simulated root canals having een cleaned by alcohol. The posts and the specimens were pressed until the ZPC solidified. ③ Retention Force test: After having been dipped in physiological saline for 24 hours, the bonded castings and specimens were subjected to a tensile testing at the drawing speed of 10 mm per minute.The retention force of post was the load recorded when the post was pulled out from the specimen. ④ Planar bonding strength test: We cut a PMMA stick into the same little cylinders and made angular milling on the flank of the cylinders. The angle between the milled bevel and the central axis of the cylinder was controlled to 0°, 1.9°, 3°, 6°, 9°, 12° and 15°. Afterwards we cut the brass into pieces. Eight wafers were cast with the same diameter of 8 mm and thickness of 1 mm. With the same procedure of bonding the posts to specimens, the brass pieces were bonded to the cylinder bevels and the wafers were adhered to the upside of some unmachinized cylinders.Immerged in physiological saline for 24 hours, their bonding force were tested at the speed of 10 mm per minute, and the load was recorded when the pieces and wafers were separated from the cylinders. ⑤ Calculation of the frictional and interlocking forces: As the post can be regarded as a frustum, the bonding surface area can be calculated with the formula calculating the flank area of frustum, and the area of the occlusal bonding surface is the sum of the annulus part of the root surface and the circular part of the post tip. Some regressions were made to the retention force, frictional strength, bonding strength per unit area, retention force per unit area and frictional force per unit area to convergence angles.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Bonding strength of different convergence angles; ② Influence of different convergence angles on the area and bonding strength of the post; ③ Retention force and frictional force of posts with different convergence angles; ④ The results of the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) of bonding strength, retention force and frictional force per unit area.RESULTS: ① The bonding strength of different convergence angles: It was 0.309 0 N/mm2 for the occlusal plane, 0.128 3 N/mm2 for the axial plane with a convergence angle of 0°, 0.108 7 N/mm2 for the 1.9°axial plane, 0.107 2 N/mm2 for the 3°axial plane, 0.084 9 N/mm2 for the 6°axial plane, 0.056 7 N/mm2 for the 9°axial plane, 0.046 3 N/mm2 for the 12°axial plane, 0.027 4 N/mm2 for the 15°axial plane. ② Bonding strength and bonding area of posts with different convergence angles: The post with a 0°convergence angle had a total post area of 108.047 mm2 and bonding strength of 19.041 N; The most tapered post with 14.71°had a total post area of 90.245 mm2 and bonding strength of 5.131 N. ③ The retention force of cast post and the bonding strength of ZPC declined with the increasing of convergence angles of the post. For the parallel post (convergence angle=0°), the retention force was 321.60 N, the frictional force was 302.559 N, retention force per unit area was 2.976 N/mm2,frictional strength was 3.885 N/mm2; for the most tapered post (convergence angle=14.71°), the retention force was 9.93 N, frictional force was 54.799 N, retention force per unit area was 0.664 N/mm2, frictional force was 0.681 N/mm2. ④ A one-way ANOVA showed that there were significant differences in the bonding strength, retention force and frictional force per unit area among the groups (P ＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION: The retention force, frictional force and the bonding strength of ZPC decrease with the increasing of convergence angles of posts, so the convergence angles of posts should be reduced as much as possible to obtain greater retention.
