Objective To evaluate the relationship of intraerythrocytic calcium(Ca~(2+)),serum cardiac troponin I(cTnI) and contractile and diastolic dysfunction in infants with pneumonia complicated with heart failure(HF),and discuss the role of Ca~(2+) and cTnI.(Met)-hods One hundred and thirty-three infants with pneumonia complicated with HF and 30 healthy children were studied.Intraerythrocytic calcium,serum cTnI and ejection fraction(EF),fractional shortening(FS) and E/A were measured by color Doppler ultrasoundraphy.Results Intraerythrocytic calcium,serum cTnI and EF,FS and E/A in two groups had difference.With the disease deteriorating,the values of Ca~(2+) and cTnI increased,and EF,FS,E/A decreased gradually.There were negative relations between Ca~(2+),cTnI and EF,FS,E/A.Conclusions Ca~(2+),cTnI are concerned with the development of HF.In clinical experiments,the contractile function and diastolic function of heart can be judged by the levels of intraerythrocytic calcium and serum cTnI.

Objective To explore the effect of psychological intervention on knee osteoarthritis patients. Methods A total of 92 OA patients were included into a one-month randomized controlled followup study, 47 of them were treated with combined psychological intervention, the other 45 cases were routinely treated. All cases were investigated on their demographic information , physiological parameters and score of the short form-36 health survey questionnaires (SF-36), self-rating depression scale (SDS) and self-rating anxiety scale (SAS). Statistics method used t-test and variance analysis. Results There was no signi-ficant difference in terms of the physiologic parameters changes between before and after treatment (P＞0.05) of the two groups. ① The SDS scores of the two groups decreased gradually after the treatment (P＜0.05),while there was remarkable descending of SDS score in patients of psychological intervention group (P＜0.05). ② The SAS scores of the two groups decreased gradually after the treatment (P＜0.05). And there was no significant difference between the two groups (P＞0.05). Compared with the non-intervention group, the fourfactors scores including physical function, pain, vitality and role limitations due to emotional problems of the intervention group were significantly improved (P＜0.05). Anegative correlation was observed between SDS and PF, BP, GH, VT and SF (r=-0.739-0521,P＜0.05). SAS was correlated negatively with VT and SF (r=-0.699～-0.475,P＜0.05). Conclusion Psychological intervention could ameliorate the depression of knee osteoarthritis patients. The quality of life of knee osteoarthritis patients can be improved by psychological intervention.

Objective To evaluate the correlation between cerebral blood flow(CBF)with age and gender with arterial spin labe-ling in magnetic resonance imaging.Methods All thirty-seven healthy volunteers were divided into A(20-29 years,n=10),B(30-39 years,n=9),C(40-49 years,n=9)and D(50-59 years,n=9),underwent conventional MRI and ASL(Q2TIPS)examination. Cerebral blood flow (CBF)maps were obtained and reviewed.ROIs were respectively selected in bilateral cerebral hemispheres and CBF values were generated.The comparison of CBF value between the left and right hemispheres and within the four age group differences were performed.The relationships between CBF values with age and gender were also analyzed.Results There was no statistical difference of CBF in white or gray matter between bilateral hemispheres in all groups (P > 0.05).A significant positive correlation was found between age and CBF values of the left whole brain (r=0.378,P =0.020)in group C,while no significant difference of CBF in bilateral gray matter,white matter or whole brain was detected among all age groups (P > 0.05).There was no statistical difference of CBF between male and female volunteers (P > 0.05).Conclusion Quantitative estimates of CBF can be obtained with ASL sequence.The preliminary results suggest that CBF values do not significantly associated with age or gender.

Objective To investigate intraoperative changes of internal environment in infants undergoing living related liver transplantation (LRLT), and to explore appropriate treatment measures. Methods Twenty-five infants undergoing LRLT were retrospectively studied, including 12 males, 13 females, with age of (3. 4 ± 4. 6) months (ranging from 2-11 months), weight of (6. 8 ±1. 3) kg (ranging from 3. 1-8. 8 kg). Arterial blood samples were collected before the operation, at preanhepatic phase (5 min before cross-clamping), at anhepatic phase (5 min before opening inferior vena cava), 5 and 30 min after the opening inferior yena cava respectively, and at the completion of the surgery the pH value, bases excess (BE), the levels of sodium, potassium, calcium, glucose and lactate were determined. Results There were large fluctuations to the internal environment during operation. Compared with the preoperative values, the intraoperative concentrations of Na+ had no significant change; The pH value and blood level of K+ had no significant change at pre-anhepatic phase and anhepatic phase (P＞0. 05), the pH value was decreased at anhepatic phase Ⅰ (P＜0. 01 )and returned to the preoperative level at the end of the operation, and the blood level of K+ decreased at anhepatic phase and lasted till the completion of the surgery (P＜0. 01 ). The blood level of Ca2+ was decreased at pre-anhepatic phase and neohepatic phaseⅡ (P＜0. 05), and recovered at the end of the operation. Blood glucose concentration was increased significantly at preanhepatic phase to neohepatic Ⅱ, and still kept at the higher level until the end of operation. The lactate concentrations were increased significantly at pre-an.hepatic phase to neohepatic Ⅱ (P＜0. 01 ), and recovered at the end of operation. The BE was decreased at pre-anhepatic phase to neohepatic Ⅱ (P＜0. 05), and recovered at the end of the operation. Conclusion There are significant disruptions which are unique and inter-related to the internal environment parameters in infants during the operation of LRLT.Monitoring and accurate intraoperative managements for different physiological status at different phases are critical for the success of LRLT in infants.

Objective To evaluate the role of 5-HT5A receptors (5-HT5A R) in activation of astroglia in the spinal dorsal horn in a rat model of neuropathic pain induced by vincristine. Methods Forty adult male SD rats weighing 180-200 g were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 10 each): control group (group C);neuropathic pain group (group P);Ad-X-HK group (group B) and Ad-5-HT5A-siRNA group (group S). Neuropathic pain was induced by repeated intraperitoneal (IP) injection of vincristine 0.1 mg/kg according to the method described by Weng et al in group P, B and S. On the 2nd day after the last IP injection, the animals received artificial cerebrospinal fluid, Ad-X-HK and Ad-5-HT5A-siRNA 25 μl administered intrathecally (IT) in group P, B and S respectively. Paw withdrawal threshold to mechanical stimulus was measured before and on the 7th day after IT administration. The animals were then sacrificed. The lumbar segment ( L4.5 ) of the spinal cord was removed for determination of 5-HT5A R and GFAP expression. Results Body weight and paw withdrawal threshold were significantly decreased after repeated IP vincristine administration in group P compared with group C. IT Ad-5-HT5A-siRNA reduced pain threshold further in group S compared with group P. Repeated IP vincristine significantly increased the expression of 5-HT5A R and GFAP in spinal dorsal horn, and IT Ad-5-HT5A-siRNA significantly decreased the expression of 5-HT5A R while increased the expression of GFAP in spinal dorsal horn in group S compared with group P. Conclusion 5-HT5AR is involved in the inhibition of astrocyte activation, resulting in reduction of vincristineinduced neuropathic pain.
