Objective To discuss the influence on cerebral oxygen balance and metabolism of propofol target controlled infusion induced tracheal intubation in patients with laparoscopic surgery.Methods A total of 96 patients with gynecologic laparoscopic surgery were selected from January 2012 to October 2013.All patients were in propofol target controlled infusion anesthesia induction downward internal jugular vein retrograde through jugular vein ball tube,radial artery catheter.According to propofol target controlled infusion target concentrations,96 patients were divided into A group (32 cases,3 μ g/ml),B group (33 cases,5 μμg/ml) and C group (31 cases,7 μg/ml).Hemodynamic and Nacotrend index (NI) change were monitored in the process of surgery patients,with internal jugular vein and radial artery blood at pre-induction (To),intubation (T1),30 min after intubation (T2) and the end of the operation (T3) were detected and arterial blood oxygen saturation (PaO2),arterial oxygen content (CaO2),internal jugular vein ball blood oxygen saturation (SjvO2),internal jugular vein ball blood oxygen partial pressure (PjvO2) at different time points were compared among three groups.Artery-internal jugular vein ball low blood oxygen of components (Da-jvO2),brain oxygen uptake rate (CEO2),poor lactic acid content (Da-jvL) were calculated.Results The systolic blood pressure,heart rate and NI at T1,T2 was lower than that at To in three groups,and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05),but there was significant difference in NI at T1,T2 among three groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with T0,PaO2,PjvO2,SjvO2 and CaO2 at T1-T3 in three groups were increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05),and the highest was C group,and then B group and A group.In the process of propofol target controlled infusion,Da-jvO2,CEO2 and Da-jvL showed a trend of gradual decline,Da-jvL decline highest significantly (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Propofol target controlled infusion induced endotracheal intubation can decrease the laparoscopic surgery in patients with cerebral oxygen metabolism and the brain tissue of ischemia hypoxia tolerance,but will not lead to cerebral oxygen supply and demand imbalance,and 7 μ g/ml concentration of propofol anesthesia effect is the best.

Autologous cells of bone, cartilage, intervertebral disc and tendon, are hard to be cultured and proliferate in vitro and thus have difficulty to be introduced in the repair of damaged tissue. Stem cells have the ability to self-renew and differentiate into many tissue types. Recent progress in stem cell research has led to an enthusiastic effort to utilize stem cells for orthopaedic tissue regeneration. Due to the abundance and easiness of harvest, adipose-derived mesenchymal celI(ASC) is an attractive, readily available aduh stem cell that has become increasingly popular for use in stem cell and tissue engineering applications. This review focuses on the use of ASC in orthopaedic tissue repair. Recent results from in vivo defect repair utilizing ASC suggested the great potential of ACS in clinical orthopaedic tissue regeneration.

High extracellular potassium can induce spreading depression-like depolarizations, elevations of extracellular glutamate and even neuronal death in normal brain. To investigate the contribution of high potassium in vivo, a microelectrode arrays ( MEAs ) probe integrated with recording sites for glutamate concentration (50í150 μm) and local field potential ( LFP) ( diameter=15 μm) was fabricated by Micro-electro-mechanical-systems ( MEMS) technologies. We implanted the MEA probe acutely in the rat brain and exposed the brain to a high potassium solution. During these multi-modal recordings, it was observed that high potassium elevated extracellular glutamate while suppressing the LFP irreversibly. This is one of the first studies in which a dual mode MEA probes is applied in vivo for neuronal death, and it is concluded that our MEA probes are capable of examining specific spatiotemporal relationships between electrical and chemical signaling in the brain.

BACKGROUND:Progressive fracture of the cartilage is considered the characteristic lesion in later osteoarthritis, the expression of osteoarthritis-related factors such as hyaluronic acid, osteopontin and CD44 in osteoarthritic cartilage is increased.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of hyaluronic acid on the expression of osteopontin mRNA and CD44 mRNA of chondrocytes in the in vitro cultured chondrocytes of patients with knee osteoarthritis.
METHODThe cartilage samples obtained from osteoarthritic patients were cultured and purified into acquire chondrocytes in vitro, and the cells were divided into three groupblank control group, hyaluronic acid (100 mg/mL) group and hyaluronidase (200 mg/mL) group. After 48 hours of cellculture, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay was used to detect the expression of CD44 mRNA and osteopontin mRNA. The difference of the expression levels before and after the intervention of hyaluronic acid was compared and analyzed using SPSS 17.0 software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the blank control group, hyaluronic acid (100 mg/mL) upregulated osteopontin mRNA expression in the chondrocytes, hyaluronidase (200 mg/mL) also reduced osteopontin mRNA expression in the chondrocytes. The CD44 mRNA expression in the chondrocytes of hyaluronic acid (100 mg/mL) group and hyaluronidase (200 mg/mL) group was lower than that in the blank control group. Hyaluronic acid can upregulate the expression of the osteopontin mRNA expression in the osteoarthritic chondrocytes;the biphasic effects of hyaluronic acid on CD44 mRNA expression in osteoarthritic chondrocytes might be associated with the molecule weight of hyaluronic acid.

The nano-structure TiN was modified on the laboratory self-made planar microelectrode array pMEA by magnetron sputtering method. The performance of modified pMEA was investigated. Research on neuroelectrical and neurochemical recording was studied in vitro. The impedance of the modified pMEA was decreased almost one order of magnitude, and the background noise level was reduced to ±6 μV. In the same testing environment, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of modified electrodes was 1. 7 times of bare electrodes. The SNR of neuroelectrical recording on the brain slice of SD rats reached 10:1 , and the weak signal such as ±12 μV was separated easily. For neuroelectrical recordings, the detection limit of dopamine ( DA) solution reached 50 nmol/L with the 2:1 (S/N). During the concentration range of 0. 05-100 μmol/L, the linearly correlation coefficient of the DA oxidation currents was 0 . 998 . The modification of nano-structure TiN on pMEA reduced pMEA impedance and background noise level, meanwhile the SNR was increased. The weak signals of neuroelectrical and neurochemical recording were successfully recorded.

BACKGROUND:Fusion treatment for single segment cervical spondylosis can induce complications such as abnormal enlargement of range of motion in adjacent segments and degenerative manifestations. Recently, scholars began to explore and to use non-fusion technique to replace traditional fusion therapy. Cervical artificial disc replacement as a new anterior non-fusion program has been greatly used in the clinic, not only obtained good clinical therapeutic effects, but also made cervical vertebrae near physiological stability, delayed adjacent segment degeneration and reduced complications. ＜br> OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical effects of the single level artificial disc replacement and the anterior cervical decompression and fusion for cervical spondylosis. ＜br> METHODS:A total of 59 patients with single segment cervical spondylosis, whose clinical signs and symptoms were accorded, were enrol ed from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, China from May 2011 to May 2013. Imaging revealed that single segment of cervical disc degeneration compressed spinal cord or nerve root. Owing to different surgeries, these patients were divided into artificial disc replacement group (replacement group;n=32) and anterior cervical decompression and fusion group (fusion group;n=27). They were fol owed up at 5 days, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores, neck pain, upper extremity pain visual analog scale scores were measured. The range of motion of the replacement segment and its effects on adjacent segments were observed. ＜br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The postoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores were improved compared with preoperative scores (P＜0.05), while Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores were decreased compared with preoperative scores (P＜0.05). There were no significant differences between two groups (P>0.05). Range of motion of the replacement segment after treatment was (11.6±3.0)° in the replacement group, showing no significant differences as compared with before surgery (8.8±2.7)° (P>0.05). No significant activity was found at 3 months after treatment in the fusion group. During fol ow-up, the range of motion in the adjacent segments was smal er in the replacement group than in the fusion group (P＜0.05). No significant difference in the range of motion in the adjacent segments was detected before and after treatment in the replacement group (P>0.05), but significant differences in the range of motion were detected before and after treatment in the fusion group (P＜0.05). The range of motion was apparently increased after treatment. These findings indicated that compared with the anterior cervical decompression and fusion, cervical artificial disc replacement can not only improve the clinical symptoms, restore nerve function, but also can keep the range of motion and stability of the cervical replacement segment. Moreover, it does not have impacts on the range of motion in the segments near to the surgical wound, and can effectively maintain cervical curvature.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of memantine on isofluane￣induced decrease of proliferation in neural stem cells ( NSCs) and the potential mechanisms in vitro. Methods Neural stem cells were isolated from rat hippocampi (postnatal day 1) and grew in culture. Cultured NSCs were randomly divided into the control ( Group Control), Vehicle (Group Vehicle), Isoflurane ( Group Iso), Isoflurane +Memantine ( Group Iso +Mem) and Isoflurane + Memantine +LY294002 groups (Group Iso+Mem+LY).Proliferation was assessed by cell counting and BrdU incorporation.Western blot was conducted to detect protein expression of phospho￣Akt. Results Compared with the control group,BrdU incorporation and phospho￣Akt expressions in neural stem cells significantly declined after 2.4% isoflurane exposure for 6 h (P<0.01).However, isofluane￣induced decrease of BrdU incorporation and phospho￣Akt expressions was attenuated by the treatments of memantine (P<0.01)). It was showed that Akt inhibitors LY294002 reversed the protective effects on neural stem cells proliferation by memantine(P<0.01). Conclusion The results suggest that memantine treatment might attenuate isofluane￣induced decrease of proliferation in neural stem cells via Akt signaling pathway.
