Patients with hypoxia pulmonary hypertension (HPH) are often accompanied by dyspnea, fatigue, and headache. With the development of the disease, the right ventricle gradually collapses and eventually leads to death. Hypoxic pulmonary vascular remodeling is an important pathological basis of HPH, and the remodeled pulmonary vessels will form permanent thickening. The mechanism of hypoxic pulmonary vascular remodeling is relatively complex. At present, there are few studies on drugs for pulmonary vascular remodeling on the market, mainly focusing on the alleviation of pulmonary vasoconstriction. It was found that hypoxia induces calcium overload in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), resulting in the proliferation of PASMCs. The main mechanisms include: ① abnormal expression of calcium pumps; ② abnormal calcium channels in the plasma membrane of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells; ③ overexpression of calcium-sensitive receptors in cells; ④ the expression of Na⁺/Ca²⁺ exchanger type-1 was abnormal. This review summarized several mechanisms of hypoxia induced calcium overload leading to pulmonary artery remodeling, hoping to provide a new idea for the treatment of HPH.

Objective To explore the clinical features and the gene mutations in MECP 2 duplication syndrome. Methods The clinical data of a child with developmental retardation and hypophrenia accompanied with respiratory tract infection was analyzed retrospectively. Microarray analysis technique was used to detect the genes in the patient and his family. The pertinent literature was reviewed. Results A 1-year and 7-month old boy was found to have hypotonia, developmental delay, and recurrent respiratory tract infections after birth. Microarray analysis showed a duplication of 441.88kb in Xq28 area and diagnosis of MECP2 duplication syndrome was confirmed. His grandmother, mother, and two aunts were found duplication of 441.73-441.88kb in Xq28 area, all of whom were MECP2’s female carrier. Conclusions The improvement of chromosome chip technology inspection is helpful to the early diagnosis of MECP2 duplication syndrome.

Objective To track the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on neonatal rats with hypoxic-ischernic brain damage (HIBD).MethodsA total of 126 healthy,seven-day-old SD rats were used to model the HIBD and then randomly divided into seven groups of 18:a sham group,a hypoxic-ischemic (HI) group,a 6 h HBO group,a 24 h HBO group,a 48 h HBO group,a 72 h HBO group and a 1 week HBO group.One hour of HBO treatment at 2 atmospheres absolute pressure was administered once daily for a week to the rats in the latter 5groups,starting at 6,24,48,72 hours and 1 week post the HIBD modeling,while no HBO was administered to the sham and HI groups.The effects were assessed in terms of histological changes ( the neuron density and the percentage of neuron apoptosis in the CA1 region of the hippocampus) and nitric oxide (NO),malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxygen dismustase (SOD) concentrations after 15 days.ResultsIn the 6 h HBO,24 h HBO,48 h HBO and 72 h HBO groups,average neuron density in the CA1 region was significantly higher than in the HI group.But in the 1 week HBO group the average density was not significantly different than in the HI group.In the 6 h HBO,24 h HBO,48 h HBO and 72 h HBO groups the average percentage of neuron cell apoptosis in the CA1 area of the hippocampus was significantly lower than in the HI group,but the 1 week HBO group again showed no significant difference.There were significant differences in average NO,MDA or SOD levels among the 6 h HBO,24 h HBO,48 h HBO,72 h HBO and HI groups,but the 1 week HBO group showed no significantly higher average levels than the HI group.ConclusionsThe optimal therapeutic window for using HBO to protect against HIBD is within the first week.The best effect can be obtained in the first 6 hours,but after 1 week HBO no longer has a significant effect.The earlier the HBO is administered,the better the effect obtained.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the drug resistance of ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in local nosocomial infection,for guiding the clinical drug resistance. METHODS ATB analysis system was used for identification of bacteria,extra-susceptibility tests were detected by K-B method. RESULTS The isolation rate of ESBLs-producing E. coli and the K. pneumoniae was 29.9% and 30.8%,respectively. The drug susceptibility was indicated the resistance rate of ESBLs producing strains to antibacterial agents except imipenem was higher than that of non-ESBLs producing strains. CONCLUSIONS Detecting drug resistance of ESBLs producing strains is of important significance for guiding the clinical rational use of antibacterials and controling the epidemics.

Objective: Asphyxia and ventricular fibrillation are the two most prevalent causes of cardiac arrest. The study investigated the differences in brain damage after cardiac arrest between asphyxial and ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrests in rats. Methods: Male healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to the asphyxial group (cardiac arrest of 6 min, n=15), ventricular fibrillation group (cardiac arrest of 6 min, n=15) and sham group (n=5). Neurologic deficit scores and tape removal test were evaluated at 1, 3 and 7 days after cardiopulmonary resuscitation from three groups. Serum S-100B and brain histopathologic damage scores were also examined. Results: There were no differences in neurologic performance at 1, 3 and 7 days after cardiopulmonary resuscitation between the asphyxial group and ventricular fibrillation group (P>0.05, respectively). Serum S-100B level was higher in the asphyxial group at 1, 3 and 7 days, compared with the ventricular fibrillation group (P<0.05, respectively). There were significantly higher histopathologic damage scores at 1, 3 and 7 days in the asphyxial group compared with the ventricular fibrillation group (P<0.05, respectively). Conclusion: Asphyxial cardiac arrest has worse morphologic brain damage compared with ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest, but the functional brain damage caused by asphyxial cardiac arrest is similar to that caused by ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy as an adjunctive therapy for children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy. Methods Seventy-one children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy aged 6 mouths to 2 years were randomly assigned to a HBO group ( n = 35 ) or a control group ( n = 36).All children were given conventional rehabilitative treatment, but the children in the HBO group in addition received 40 sessions of HBO therapy. HBO was administered for 1 h with 85% ～ 90% oxygen at 1.4 atmospheres absolute pressure. All the treatments in both groups continued for 8 weeks. Gross motor function was evaluated with a gross motor function measure ( GMFM ), global motor performance was assessed with a psychomotor development index (PDI), and intelligence was assessed with a mental development index (MDI). Clinical assessments were done before and after treatment. At the same time, hearing impairment was measured using brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) in the HBO group. Results All outcomes in both groups improved significantly over the course of study. The average improvement in GMFM in the control group was significantly greater than in the HBO group but other differences were not statistically significant. Hearing impairment developed in 8 children treated with HBO.Conclusion There was no evidence that HBO therapy improved the condition of children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy, and there is a risk of side effects with HBO therapy.

Objective To investigate the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)treatment on TSG-6 in a rat model of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Methods Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly (random number) divided into sham group,phosphate buffer solution (PBS)-treated group and MSCs-treated group.Animals were subjected to asphyxial cardiac arrest followed by CPR.In PBS-treated group or MSCs-treated group,animals were injected intravenously with PBS or MSCs at 2h after resuscitation.Neurological deficit scores (NDS) were assessed at 1,3 and 7 d after CPR.Serum S-100B was assayed using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Immunofluorescence was performed to detect donor MSCs and the expression of TSG-6 in brain.TSG-6 and proinflammatory cytokines in brain were assayed using real time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Western blot analysis was performed to measure the levels of neutrophil elastase (NE) in brain.Multiple comparisons were made by analysis of variance.Results At 3d and 7d,MSCs-treated group demonstrated higher NDS than PBS-treated group (P ＜ 0.01),and serum S-100B levels significantly reduced in MSCs-treated group compared with PBS-treated group (P ＜ 0.01).DAPI-labeled MSCs migrated into the ischemic brain and some DAPI + cells colocalized with TSG-6.Compared with PBS-treated group,MSCs treatment significantly up-regulated the expression of TSG-6 and reduced the expression of NE and proinflammatory cytokines in brain at 3 d and 7 d after CPR (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Systemically administered MSCs suppressed inflammatory responses in brain after CPR and improved neurological function in rats possibly via induction of TSG-6.
