Objective To study the use of immunosuppressives for the patients with virus C hepatitis(HCV)after renal transplantation.Methods Twenty-five cases of HCV-RNA(+)and 30 cases of HCV-RNA(-)as control group were analyzed.All patients were divided into the Aza group(n=12),MMF group(n=8)and MP(MMF+Pred)group(n=5).Results Eight casGS revealed abnormal liver function in the Aza group and 2 in MMF group.After stopping the use of CsA and Aza,the liver function all revealed good outcome in the MP group.During one week 30 cases of HCV-RNA(-)recovered due to the readjustment of the dosage of immunosupprexsives(CsA,Aza)in the control group.Conclnsions The therapy of MMF+CsA+Pred is necessary for the patients with HCV-RNA(+)and the function of the renal and liver can be stabilized by MMF.

In order to compare the therapeutics of combined use of MMF with low dose of cyclosporine A (CsA) in renal transplantation, 16 cases were randomly divided into 3 groups:MMF 2.0g group receiving MMF 2.0g per day, MMF 1.5g group receiving MMF 1.5g per day,and Aza group. All the patients in the 3 groups were given the low dosage of CsA and steroid.The results showed that no patients in MMF 2.0g group experienced acute rejection. One patient (20%) in MMF 1.5g group occurred twice acute rejections. In Aza group 3 out of 5 patients (60%) experienced acute rejections. Six months after transplantation, serum Cr level and the used dose of CsA in MMF 2.0g group was obviously lower than that of Aza group. It was concluded that the combined use of 2.0g MMF per day with low dosage of CsA and steroid was safe and efficacy for renal transplanted patients. The clinical results of MMF 2.0g group were superior to those of Aza group.

Objective To study the optimal dose of esmolol for maintaining cardiovascular stability in patients with hypertension during tracheal extubation. Methods In post-anestheisa care unit, hypertensive patients after general anesthesia meeting the extubation criteria were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups according the age: group Ⅰ (>65 years old for the elderly hypertensive, 21 cases), and groupⅡ(≤65 years old for the non-elderly hypertensive, 22 cases). All the patients received esmolol bolus before sputum suction and tube extraction, and the tracheal extubation were extubated 2 minutes after esmolol bolus. The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate were was recorded before tracheal extubation, 2 min after esmolol bolus, at the time of sputum suction extubation, 1 min after tracheal extubation, 3 min after tracheal extubation and 5 min after tracheal extubation. Esmolol dose was determined by the up and down method. Initial dose was 0.5 mg/kg, in accordance with the arithmetic dose (0.2 mg/kg) increasing or decreasing progressively. In negative results (the systolic blood pressure at extubation or 5 min after extubation ≥ 20% of the base, or the systolic blood pressure at sputum suction extubation>180 mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) esmolol dose increased progressively, and in positive results (the systolic blood pressure at extubation or 5 min after extubation<20%of the base) esmolol dose decreased progressively. When the crosspoint (from positive to negative result) reached 6, the study was terminated. Results The median effective doses of esmolol for maintaining cardiovascular stability in groupⅠand groupⅡwere (0.6 ± 0.1) and (0.8 ± 0.1) mg/kg. Conclusions Esmolol can maintain cardiovascular stability in patients with hypertension during tracheal extubation. Median effective dose decreases in older hypertensive patients.

ObjectiveObserve the efficacy, toxicity and the effection of telomerase activity of allicin combined with paclitaxel plus cisplatin and 5-Fu(TFP)chemotherapy for patients with advanced gastric carcinoma.MethodsFifty-four patients with advanced gastric carcinoma were randomly divided into two groups. A group was treated with allicin and TFP, B group was only treated with TFP. The chemotherapy was paclitaxel (135 mg/m2, dl, 8) plus cisplatin (75 mg/m2, d2-4) followed by 5-Fu (500 mg/m2 d1-5). Allicin was used in 60 days(3 times every day,once 20 mg).Telomerase activity was performed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. ResultsThe total efficiency rate was 40.7 ％ (11/27) in A group and 33.3 ％ (9/27) in B group.There was no statistical difference between the two groups(~ = 0.079,P =0.779).There was significant difference in nausea and vomit (P =0.043), and the incidence of A group was 77.8 ％ (21/27) which was lower than that of B group[92.6 ％(25/27)].There was statistical difference in telomerase activity between the two groups(P =0.000).ConclusionAllicin could reduce the toxicity of chemotherapy and inhibit the telomerase activity in advanced gastric carcinoma.

Objective To study the quick triage assessment system for emergency nurse, establish evaluation model and method, select indicators and contents, guide triage nurses to be accurate, fast, convenient and practical, and also to optimize the use of emergency medical resources. Methods Screening the target population to conduct the research, collecting main indicators and features covered with main symptom and characteristics of severe critical emergency patients, selecting manifestation form of triage assessment system. Results The selected indicators and contents were demonstrated by a table-based form, and the quick triage assessment form for emergency nurse was established to instruct triage work. Conclusions This established quick triage assessment form is simple, intuitive and can improve the quality of emergency triage work. It possesses feasibility, practicality and achieves the optimal medical services with the limited emergency medical resources, which shows both social and economic effect.

Objective To explore the effect of training course based on the model of practical performance which was designed to improve the humanistic caring ability of nursing postgraduates. Methods After conceived, designed and trained the nursing postgraduates, we combined quantitative research method and qualitative research method to understand the effect and the true feelings of the students after taking the training. Results “Humanistic Caring Ability of Nursing Undergraduates Assessment scale (HCANU)“was used before and after 22 nursing postgraduates accepted the training. After training, their total score (86.06±5.16) was higher than before (67.70±5.00) (t=2.665, P<0.01) and 8 dimensions scores were respectively higher than before(P<0.01 or 0.05). The course has improved the humanistic caring ability of nursing postgraduates, enhanced their empathy of nursing objects and promote self-reflection. Conclusions This training course based on the model of practical performance helps to improve the humanistic caring ability of nursing postgraduates and cultivate their humantistic quality.

Objective To study the influence of guiding herb of Radix Achyranthis Bidentatae(RAB) on therapeutic effect of diclofenac sodium for rats with adjuvant arthritis(AA) and its possible mechansim,and to further explore the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic changes after using diclofenac sodium together with RAB.Methods Forty-five Wistar rats were equally divided into 5 groups:normal group,model group,RAB(RAB water extract 5.0 g?kg-1) group,diclofenac sodium(10 mg?kg-1) group,and the combination group.The rat model was induced by Freud's complete adjuvant.The foot edema was tested by volume method.HPLC was used to determine the diclofenac sodium concentration in foot tissue,and ELISA and radioimmunoassay method were used to determine PGE2 and IL-1?levels in vivo.Results In the combination group,the anti-inflammatory action was superior to that in diclofenac sodium group(P
