As the indexes of reflecting whole blood coagulation and fibrinolytic capacity, thrombelas-tography are being increasingly used in the fields of guiding intraoperative blood transfusion, hypercoagulable state monitoring and correction, treatment of trauma patients, and clotting mechanism research. This article reviews the clinical application value and limitation of thrombelastography in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Objective To obeserve the effects of acute hypervolemic hemodilution(AHH) with hypertonic .sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch 40(HSH 40) on hemodynamics and fluid balance in patients under general anesthesia.Methods Fifty patients undergoing radical surgery for gastral cancer under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 2 groups with 25 patients each.Acute hypervolemic bemodilution (AHH) was performed with HSH 40 6 ml/kg in group A or with hydroxyethyl statch(HES) 6 ml/kg in group,which was infused within 30 minuts.HR,MAP,CVP were recorded before(T_0),at 30 min (T_1),60 min (T_2) after infusionand and the end of operation (T_3).The amounts of bleeding,HSH 40 and HES and urine output were recorded as well.Results There were no significant diferences in HR and MAP between two groups at all time points.CVP was sighificantly higher at T_1-T_3 than that at To in two groups.The urine output was more in groups A than that in group B(P<0.05).Conclusion AHH with HSH 40 can effectively expand blood vlume and increase urine output in surgical patients under general anesthesia.

OBJECTIVE To study the effect of the intervention of monitoring-training-planning(MTP) on use of antibacterials and injections for pediatric acute upper respiratory infection.METHODS In accordance with selected drug use indicators(SDUIS),the pediatric outpatient prescription of acute upper respiratory infection was selected in our hospital from Jun to Aug 2006 as the baseline,and intervented by MTP,then the investigation of post-interfervention was carried out after a month,and then re-intervention research was made,so the cycle continued.RESULTS The percentage ratio of antibacterials,and injection usage,and the average drug fee in pediatric outpatient prescription for acute upper respiratory infection in our hospital was decreased from 75.00%,61.67%,40.33% and 54.29 yuan to 7.00%,5.00%,3.00% and 39.16 yuan,respectively after four rounds of MTP(all P

Objective To explore the protective effect of portal vein administration of propofol on hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury(HIRI) and its mechanism.Methods Thirty-two male rabbits were randomly allocated into four groups:Group A(sham operation group),the abdomen was only opened and closed;group B,the hepatic inflow was occluded for 30 min,and reperfused for 60 min;group C,the same managment as group B + propofol injected through jugular vein;group D,the treatment same as group B + propofol injected through portal vein.Drug injection was completed 20 min before hepatic inflow occlusion.Serum ALT and AST,and endothelin-1(ET-1) and nitric oxide(NO)in the hepatic tissue and blood,and the content of ATP in hepatic tissue were determined.Results The level of ET-1 in plasma and hepatic tissue was significantly increased in group B compared to group C and D(P

BACKGROUND:Mesenchymal stem cel s are multipotent progenitor cel s that can be isolated from the bone marrow, adipose tissue, umbilical cord blood and so on. Mesenchymal stem cel s possess strong immunosuppressive effects on both innate and adaptive immunity.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the immunomodulatory properties of mesenchymal stem cel s for T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, natural kil er cel s and dentritic cel s and prospect its therapeutic implication.
METHODS:PubMed and CNKI databases were searched for relevant literatures published from 2000 to 2015. The key words were“mesenchymal stem cel s, immunomodulator, T cel s, B cel s, NK cel s, dendriticc cel s”in Chinese and English, respectively. Then, 61 papers were included and further analyzed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The immunomodulatory effects of MSCs on lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, natural kil er cel s and dentritic cel s were elicited by cel-cel contact and soluble cytokines. But mesenchymal stem cel s from different sources hold different immunomodulatory effect on immune cel s. When we use mesenchymal stem cel s in clinic, some important factors, such as isolation methods, cel sources, colonization sites, should be taken into account. In order to ensure the clinical safety and effectiveness, there are stil many problems to be further studied before mesenchymal stem cel s can be widely used in clinic.

This study aims to compare the urate-lowering response rate of febuxostat and allopurinol in gout patient using a model-based meta-analysis. The literature search identified 22 clinical trials of gout with a total of 43 unique treatment arms that met our inclusion criteria, and a total of 6 365 gout patients were included in the study. The response rates of allopuriol and febuxostat were characterized by Tmax model and Emax model respectively, and the effect of baseline serum uric acid (sUA) and patient type on the drug effect was tested. The results showed that allopurinol can reach an average maximum response rate of 50.8% while febuxostat can reach a 100% response rate within a very short time, and the ED50 was 34.3 mg. Covariate analysis revealed that baseline sUA has a negative effect on response rate of allopurinol, and a positive effect on the predicted ED50 of febuxostat. For patients who had shown inadequate response to prior allopurinol treatment, the average response rate was about half that of the allopurinol responder patients.

OBJECTIVEThis work lays the foundation for establishing a digital model database with normal occlusion. A digital dental cast is acquired through grating projection, and model features are measured through reverse engineering.

METHODSThe grating projection system controlled by a computer was projected onto the surface of a normal dental model. Three-dimensional contour data were obtained through multi-angle shooting. A three-dimensional model was constructed, and the model features were analyzed by using reverse engineering. The digital model was compared with the plaster model to determine the accuracy of the measurement system.

RESULTSThe structure of three-dimensional reconstruction model was clear. The digital models of two measurements exhibited no significant difference (P > 0.05). When digital and plaster models were measured, we found that the crown length and arch width were not statistically different (P > 0.05), whereas the difference between the crown width and arch length was statistically significant (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe reconstruction of a digital model by using the grating projection technique and reverse engineering can be used for dental model measurement in clinic al and scientific research and can provide a scientific method for establishing a digital model database with normal occlusion.
