Objective To evaluate the effects of treatment with different fluids on systemic inflammatory response in newborn rabbits with septic shock. Methods One hundred New Zealand white rabbits (3-5 days, 45-70 kg) were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 20 each):group Ⅰ sham operation (group S); group Ⅱ sepsis (group CLP); group Ⅲ lactated Ringer's solution (group R); group Ⅳ 6% HES (group HES) and group V (group R+ HES). The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal ketamine and midazolam. Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The animals in group R and HES received lactated Ringer's solution and 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 30 ml/kg infused iv over 1 h respectively immediately after CLP,while group R+ HES received Ringer's solution 20 ml/kg and 6% HES 10 ml/kg. Nio fluid was infused in groups S and CLP. Carotid artery and jugular vein were cannulated for MAP monitoring, blood sampling and drug and fluid administration. MAP was recorded immediately (T1) and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8 h (T2-6) after CLP. Arterial blood samples were collected at T6 for determination of plasma IL-6 and IL-10 concentrations. Results Compared with those at T1, MAP decreased significantly after CLP at T4-6 in group CLP and at T5.6 in group R but hypotension did not develop after CLP in group HES and R + HES. Plasma IL-6 concentration was significantly higher in group CLP and R than in group S. There was no significant difference in plasma IL-6 concentration between group S and group HES and R + HES. Plasma IL-10 concentration was significantly lower in group CLP and higher in group HES than in group S. There was no significant difference in plasma IL-10 concentration between group S and group R and R + HES. Plasma IL-6 concentration was significantly lower, while plasma IL-10 concentration was significantly higher in group R + HES and HES,and plasma IL-10 concentration was significantly higher in group R or6% HES infused iv alone in maintaining the balance between pro-and anti-inflammatory cytolines in newborn rabbits with septic shock.

Aiming at the weakness of the medical graduate students' ideological and political education,we developed the new mode via investigation and surveying,allowing for the medical characteristics. We suggested that we should bring into full play the tutors and their groups function and excavate the connotation of groups’ morality education on the basis of the scientific research groups to develop the medical students' ideological and political education.

Objective To evaluate the sensitivity of arterial ketone body ratio as an indicator for multiple organ failure.Materials and methods The experimental model of multiple organ failure was made in adult and old rats by hypoperfusion-induced hemorrhagic shock. After blood sampling, the arterial acetoacetate, β-hydroxybutyrate, total ketone body, ALT, AST, BUN, creatinine at 2, 4, 8 hr in hypoperfusion were examined to compare the differences of ketone body ratio and organ failure between adult and old rats. Hepatic and mitochondrial metabolism were assessed by comparing ketone body ratios (AcAc/β-OHB) and free NAD+/NADH ratios. Results Ketone body ratio in old rats at 2, 4, 8 hr after the induction of hemorrhagic shock decreased from 0.68 to 0.31, 0.27 and 0.22, respectively. In adult rats, it decreased from 1.12 to 0.17, 0.12 and 0.09, respectively. Changes of ketone body ratio in the adult group were larger than in the elderly group ( P ＜ 0.001). The development of multiple organ failure is associated with the time of hemorrhagic shock development. Conclusions There was a different ketone body ratio between multiple organ failure in the elderly (MOFE) and multiple organ failure (MOF) in general adults. Ketone body ratio is a better indicator than ALT and AST in reflecting hepatic function in the early status of MOF. (J Geriatr Cardiol 2004;1(2) :125-128. )

Objective To systematically assess the clinical efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for vertigo with excess syndrome. Methods Chinese and English literature about acupuncture treatment of vertigo with excess syndrome published in recent years was comprehensively searched. The quality of the retrieved literature meeting the inclusion criteria of randomized controlled trial was assessed and its data was collected. A Meta analysis of the included studies was carried out.Results Finally, 10 articles with randomized controlled trials containing a total of 688 patients were included in the analysis. The included literature was assessed at lower quality using Cochrane evaluation member manual 5.1. A Meta analysis showed that the efficacy rate of acupuncture treatment for vertigo with excess syndrome was higher than that of Western drugs alone [M-H OR 4.84, 95%CI (2.39, 9.81),P<0.0001]. Combined acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine was superior to Chinese herbal medicine alone [M-H OR 3.82, 95%CI (2.06, 7.10),P<0.0001]. Vertigo symptom and function scoring showed day 3 of treatment [MD 4.66, 95%CI (2.97, 6.35)], day 7 of treatment [MD 0.95, 95%CI (0.03, 1.86)] and day 14 of treatment [MD 0.89, 95%CI (0.71, 2.49)]. There were statistically significant differences in the vertigo symptom and function scores between the two groups of patients at day 3 and 7 of treatment. There were no statistically significant differences in the scores between the two groups of patients at day 14 of treatment. Conclusions Acupuncture or combined acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine are effective and highly safe in treating vertigo with excess syndrome, but high-quality, multi-center and large-sample RCT studies still need to be conducted for validation and support.
