Objective To evaluate the effects of different doses of propofol infusion on real-time monitoring of recurrent laryngeal nerve. Method 30 ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients who underwent thyroid gland surgery were given propofol intravenously in different concentrations. BP, HR and real-time monitoring of recurrent laryngeal nerve were recorded with the propofol dosage varying from 3 to 6, 9, 12, 15, 18?g/(kg?min). Results The amplitude of recurrent laryngeal nerve reflex had no change with different doses of propofol infusion. The HR and BP were elevated with low doses of propofol infusion, but there were no changes when propofol concentration was 15 or 18?g/(kg?min). Conclusion Propofol infusion i.v. does not interfere with real-time intraoperative monitoring of recurrent laryngeal nerve, and it does not inhibit the action potential of recurrent laryngeal nerve, but can effectively decrease the cardiovescular reaction.

ObjectiveTo study the protective effect of Chinese Medical Formula Decoction on anoxic damage in cultured hippocampal neuronal cells from newborn rats. MethodsThe sera with Chinese Medicine (SCM-1,2,3) were collected from rats fed on Chinese Medical Formula Decoction Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ(CMFD-Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ) for 3 days,while the sera of rats which were fed with normal saline was collected as control. Hippocampal neuronal cells were obtained from dissociated cerebrella of 2 day old Wister rats. The cells were maintained in 5% CO2 humidified atmosphere at 37℃. After 7 days, the cells were grown in culture media containing SCM-1,2,3 and normal saline for 24 hours and in anoxic atmosphere for 1 hour. After anoxia, the cells were cultured for 24 hours. Culture media were collected and Malonaldehyde (MDA) and Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) in culture media were detected. ResultsThe survival neuronal cell rate in SCM-1 and 2 groups were significantly higher than control group. LDH and MDA in culture media of SCM-1 and 2 groups were lowed than control group. Conclusions There is a protective effect of CMFD-1 and 2 on anoxic damage in cultured hippocampal neuronal cells from newborn rats.

Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into control group, model group, Angelicae Sinensis Radix Decoction group, Angelicae Sinensis Radix polysaccharide group and positive medicine group. After routine feeding for 14 day, each administration group was given relevant medicine for gavage, while control group and model group were given the same amount of distilled water for gavage, once a day for 7 d. From the 8th day, except for the control group, the rats in the rest of groups were subjected to whole-body X ray irradiation, continuous exposure to 2 d; the total absorbed dose was 6 Gy. The rats were killed by femoral artery after irradiate 3 d. The WBC count, RBC, HGB, and PLT in peripheral blood were observed by blood routine test; the number of nucleated cells in the bone marrow was observed by nucleated cell count method; the pathological changes of spleen were observed by HE staining under microscope; the contents of IFN-γ and IL-4 in serum were detected by ELISA. Results Compared with the control group, the spleen index WBC, number of bone marrow nucleated cells and serum contents of IL-4 and IFN-γ in model group was significantly lower (P<0.05), The contents of RBC and HGB increased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, WBC, number of bone marrow nucleated cells, and the contents of IL-4 and IFN-γ in serum of each administration group increased significantly (P<0.05); RBC and HGB decreased significantly (P<0.05).

Objective To explore the value of superb microvacular imaging ( SMI) technology in differentiating thyroid microcarcinomas from benign micronodules comparing with contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) . Methods A total of 195 thyroid micronodules ( ≤1 .0 cm) from 172 patients were examined using CEUS and SMI ,and the findings were reviewed and evaluated in comparison to the pathological results . Results Of all the 195 thyroid nodules ,pathologic findings revealed that 140 (71 .8% ) were malignant and 55 (28 .2% ) were benign ,CEUS diagnosed that 127 (65 .1% ) were malignant and 68 (34 .9% ) were benign ,and SMI diagnosed that 129 (66 .2% ) were malignant and 66 (33 .8% ) were benign . There were no differences between the SMI and CEUS in terms of sensitivity ( 90 .0% vs 87 .9% ) , specificity ( 94 .5% vs 92 .7% ) ,accuracy ( 91 .3% vs 89 .2% ) ,positive predictive value ( 97 .7% vs 96 .9% ) and negative predictive value ( 92 .9% vs 87 .9% ) ( P > 0 .05 for all) . Conclusions SMI can effectively observe the perforating blood vessels of thyroid micronodules , which plays an important role in differentiating of benign and malignant thyroid micronodules .

AIM:To investigate the inhibitory effect of ethanol extract of propolis (EEP) on oxidized low-den-sity lipoprotein ( ox-LDL )-induced macrophage apoptosis and the underlying molecular mechanisms . METHODS:RAW264.7 macrophages were pretreated with EEP (7.5, 15 and 30 mg/L), 4-phenylbutyric acid (PBA, 5 mmol/L) or diphenyleneiodonium ( DPI, 5μmol/L) for 1 h and then treated with ox-LDL (100 mg/L) or tunicamycin ( TM, 4 mg/L) for 24 h.The cell viability and apoptosis were determined by MTT assay and Annexin V-FITC apoptosis detection kit , re-spectively.The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), and the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondial-dehyde (MDA) in the cells were measured.The protein levels of caspase-12, a proapoptotic molecule under endoplasmic reticulum stress ( ERS) , were examined by Western blot analysis .RESULTS:Like PBA ( an ERS inhibitor ) , EEP pro-tected RAW264.7 macrophages from ox-LDL-induced injury in a dose-dependent manner , as assessed by the increased cell viability and the decreased apoptotic rate .The decrease in cell viability and increase in apoptotic rate induced by TM , an ERS inducer, were also attenuated by EEP .Moreover, EEP suppressed ox-LDL-induced oxidative stress as revealed by the decreased generation of ROS and MDA as well as elevated SOD activity , which were similar to DPI , an oxidative stress in-hibitor.Furthermore, EEP significantly suppressed ox-LDL-or TM-induced activation of caspase-12.Similar results were observed in the cells pretreated with PBA or DPI and then treated with ox-LDL.CONCLUSION: EEP may protect RAW264.7 macrophages from ox-LDL-induced apoptosis and the mechanism is at least partially involved in the ability of EEP to suppress oxidative stress and subsequent activation of caspase -12.

Objective To investigate the prevalence rate of metabolic syndrome (MS) and its related diseases in Bengbu community residents. Methods 3246 residents aged from 25 to 74 years were chosen through cluster random sampling method, including 1459 males and 1787 females. MS and its related diseases were examined. Results (1) The prevalence rate and standardized rate of MS was 20. 5% and 16.0%, respectively, which reached higher level all over China. The prevalence rate of male and female was 22. 9% and 18. 6%, respectively. The highest prevalence rate occurred in presenium patients. (2)The prevalences of various metabolic diseases were increased with aging except for overweigh/obesity and MS (P<0.01). The prevalence of various metabolic diseases was 1 times higher in elderly patients than that in young patients, and the prevalence rate of MS in male and female increased to 2.8 times and 2.7 times, respectively. The prevalence rate of type 2 diabetes mellitus increased biggest, male to 7.9 times and female to 12.8 times compared with the original level. (3) The multiple components clustering rate of MS was high, only 33.8% of individuals had no metabolic disorder. Conclusions The prevalence rates of MS and its related diseases are high in Bengbu community residents. It is necessary to take comprehensive measures to prevent and control MS in community.
