Objective:To explore the changes of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and S-100β protein (S-100β) during perioperative period in infants undergoing living liver transplantation and examine the effect of brain injury.Methods:From January 2015 to January 2016 in Department of Anesthesiology First Central Clinical College Tianjin Medical University, study group was composed of forty infants of congenital biliary atresia with an age range of (4-12) months, a body weight of (4-10) kg and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class Ⅲ/Ⅳ. Another 40 infants undergoing general surgery were selected as control group. In study group, blood samples were harvested from central vein pre-operation (T0), before skin incision (T1), 30 min after anhepatic phase (T2), 1 h of neohepatic phase (T3) and 24h after hepato-reperfusion (T4). In control group, blood samples were collected at pre-operation (T0) and 24 h post-operation (T4). Serum levels of S-100β, NSE, heart rate (HR), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP) and bispectral index (BIS) were monitored at T1-4 and end of surgery. All children were assessed by Bayley Scale of Infant Development (BSID) at Day 1 pre-operation and 2/4 weeks post-operation for observing mental and motor development status. The results were described with mental development index (MDI) and psychomotor development index (PDI). Pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) was employed for evaluating the severity of delirium during the recovery stage at 30 min and 2/4h post-extubation.Results:In study group, serum levels of S-100β and NSE changed significantly during non-hepatic and neohepatic reperfusion phases. After inferior vena cava occlusion, serum concentrations of S-100β and NSE spiked ( P<0.05) and gradually recovered during neohepatic reperfusion period ( P<0.05). No significant inter-group difference existed in serum S-100β or NSE at T4 ( P>0.05). In study group, as compared with Day 1 pre-operation, MDI/PDI decreased at Week 2 post-operation ( P<0.05) and increased from Month 1 post-operation ( P<0.05). Both MDI and PDI were lower than control group before and at Week 2 post-operation ( P<0.05). MDI/PDI of study group basically reached the preoperative level at Month 1 post-operation ( P<0.05). In control group, no significant difference existed in MDI/PDI at Day 1 pre-operation and Week 2/4 post-operation ( P>0.05). In study group, the delirium rate was up to 30% post-extubation and decreased at 2/4h post-extubation. In control group, the incidence of delirium was low at 30 min and 2/4h post-extubation ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Perioperative evaluations of serum levels of NSE and S-100β are significant for predicting the postoperative onsets of delirium and cognitive impairment in children with living donor liver transplantation.

AIM:To analyze the effect 17?-estradiol on activated macrophages and possibility of being a target of screening drugs for endometriosis. METHODS: Using scanning electron microscope, the surface of macrophages was observed. Nitric oxide (NO) in supernatant was determined by Griess's reagent. TNF-? was measured by MTT via L929 cells. Using Fluo-3/AM, i was measured by laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM). RESULTS: (1) Increased size, extension of more microvilli, expression of retraction fibers and elaboration of membrane ruffles were detected in 17?-estradiol treated macrophages. (2) 17?-estradiol induced NO release from peritoneal macrophages. (3)The more TNF-? was made by macrophages under the induction of 17?-estradiol. (4)Intracellular Ca 2+ elevated 39.8% in peritoneal macrophages after 17?-estradiol (100 nmol/L) treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Macrophages were activated by 17?-estradiol at a certain concentration. Activated macrophages by 17?-estradiol may participate in endometriosis and may be a target of screening drugs for endometriosis.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of Xincang Decoction on chronic airway inflammation in children with asthma in clinical investigation. METHODS: Xincang Decoction was composed of Flos Magnoliae (Xinyi) and Fructus Xanthii (Cangoerzi), the traditional Chinese herbs for expelling wind. Sixty cases of children with bronchial asthma in remission stage were randomly divided into two groups. Thirty cases in the treatment group were treated with Xincang Decoction and the others in the control group were treated with ketotifen fumarate. The therapeutic effects of the two groups were compared, and the peripheral eosinophil (EOS) count, the levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE), interleukin 4 (IL-4) and interleukin 5 (IL-5), and the pulmonary functions were observed before and three months after the treatment. RESULTS: After three months treatment, the results showed that the total response rates of the treatment and the control group were 83.3% and 80.0%, respectively, without marked difference (P>0.05). The levels of EOS and IL-5 were obviously decreased after the treatment, and the levels of EOS and IL-5 of the patients in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Meanwhile the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV(1)) was improved after the treatment, and the FEV(1) of the patients in the treatment group was higher than that of the patients in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Xincang Decoction can decrease the levels of EOS and IL-5 and improve the pulmonary function in treating chronic airway inflammation in children with bronchial asthma in remission stage.
