ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) on myocardial ischemic reperfusion injury(IRI) in old rats and the cardiac protective effect of Esmolol(ES). Methods116 rats were divided into three groups: IR group, IR+ES group and Sham group. The ischemic samples were observed in ischemia and 3,6,12,24 hours after IR. The myocardial levels of expression of ICAM-1 mRNA were evaluated by method of IN Situ Hybridization and the protein were evaluated by immunocytochemistry. The content of infiltration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils(PMNs), malomdialdehyde(MDA), superoxides dismutase(SOD) and the myocardial infarction area were measured too. ResultsAfter IR, myocardial levels of expression of ICAM-1 mRNA, protein,MDA and PMNs were increased significantly; SOD was decreased significantly. Between the levels of expression of ICAM-1 protein and PMNs, infarction area of myocardium, a close correlation were observed(P<0.05). In IR+ES group, all of the indicators were increased after IR, but the levels of increase in IR+ES group were more significantly modification as compared with IR group(P<0.05-0.01).Conclusions The findings indicate that PMNs could induce myocardial IRI after IR, which result from the ICAM-1 mediated PMNs adhesion.ES is able to decrease myocardial IRI by blocking the expression of ICAM-1 partially.

Objective To evaluate the analgesic efficacy of thoracic paravertebral block (PVB) in patients after lobectomy performed via video-assisted thoracoscope (VAT) .Methods Fifty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes aged 20-76 yr weighing 45-90 kg undergoing elective lobectomy via VAT were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 25 each): patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) group and thoracic PVB group. PVB was performed according to the method described by Jamieson et al and Richardson et al. Paravertebral catheter was placed at T7-8 after induction of anesthesia and tracheal intubation. A loading dose of 0.5% ropivacaine 20 ml was administered via PVB catheter at 30 min before the end of operation. PVB was then controlled by the patients with 0.2% ropivacaine (bolus dose 8.0 ml, lockout interval 30 min). In PCIA group a loading dose of sufentanil 0.1 μg/kg was given iv at 30 mln before the end of operation. Sufentanil 1.0 μg/ml was used. PCIA included a bolus of 2 ml with a 15 min lockout interval and background infusion 2 ml/h. Numeric rating scale (NRS) (0=no pain, 10 = most severe pain) was used to assess the intensity of pain. NRS score, MAP, HR and SpO2 were recorded before operation (T0 ,baseline), 30 min after withdrawal of chest tube (Ti) and at 24, 48 and 72 h after operation (T2, T3, T4). Forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume first second (FEV1.0) were measured and FVC/FEV1.0 ratio was calculated after chest tube was withdrawn. Blood cortisone and glucose concentrations were determined at To, T1 and T4. Requirement for rescue analgesics and side effects were recorded. Results There was no significant difference in MAP, HR, SpO2 and NRS at rest between the 2 groups.NRS at coughing and blood cortisone and glucose concentrations were significantly lower and the postoperative FEV1.0 was significantly higher in PVB group than in PCIA group. The requirement for rescue analgesics and side effects were comparable between the 2 groups. Conclusion Thoracic PVB can provide better postoperative analgesia with little side effects.

Objective To establish a simple, efficient and low-cost method for the detection of Salmonella typhimurium carrying SSeC gene. Methods In this study, a nano-biosensor ( FAM-P/GO) was successfully established based on the noncovalent assembly of carboxy-fluorescein ( FAM)-labeled probe and graphene oxide ( GO) . The target gene at different concentrations and SSeC gene-harbored bacterium sam-ples were detected by the FAM-P/GO nano-biosensor to evaluate its sensitivity. The specificity of the estab-lished nano-biosensor was evaluated by using DNAs with mismatched base pairs and single-stranded DNAs ( ssDNAs) extracted from various species. Results The established strategy for SSeC gene detection showed a good linear range of 0. 05-1. 0 μmol/L (R2=0. 992 1) with a lower limit of 0. 05 μmol/L. Moreover, the lower detection limit for target bacterium samples was 103 CFU/ml and the fluorescence intensity increased linearly with the concentration from 103 CFU/ml to 108 CFU/ml. The signal-to-noise ( S/N) of the experi-mental group was much greater than that of the control group, which indicated that the establish method was highly specific. Conclusion The FAM-P/GO nano-biosensor was successfully established in this study, which provided a new and possible way for the rapid detection of Salmonella typhimurium harboring SSeC gene.
