The use of genetic approaches to probe relative genes that control sensitivity to volatile anesthetics in intact model has recently emerged as the powerful tools and strategies in dissecting mechanisms of anesthesia. Multiple model organisms such as yeast, nematodes, fruitflies and mammals are currently being exploited, and a number of sensitive genes have been screened, with some of them being cloned, located, and function identified. The emerging technologies are likely to provide further great advances for elucidating the specific anesthetic molecular sites.

Objective To explore the causes,clinical characteristics and prognosis of children′s completely at-rioventricular block(CAVB).Methods The clinical data of 73 patients with CAVB were analyzed retrospectively from January 2004 to December 201 3 at the Cardiology Department,Nanjing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medi-cal University.Within those 73 patients,34 patients were male and the others were female,from 3 months old to 1 2.5 years old,the mean age of 6 years.Results There were 21 congenital CAVB patients and 52 acquired CAVB patients with myocarditis undergoing ventricular septal defect (VSD)closure operation.All congenital CAVB patients were re-fractory to drug therapy.Electrocardiogram and echocardiogram were performed in 1 9 cases without clinical symptoms during follow -up,but 2 cases had permanent pacemaker implanted.Among 27 fulminant myocarditis,Adams -Stokes attacks were found in 1 5 cases,3 cases had Adams -Stokes attack in 1 5 cases with sequelae of myocarditis,and 2 out of 6 cases undergoing VSD closure operation had Adams -Stokes attack,and other 4 cases without clinical symptoms were followed up periodically.The acquired CAVB patients were given energy composition and intravenous megavitamin C. The cases with fulminant myocarditis were given adrenal cortical hormone and intravenous gamma globulins simulta-neously.A total of 27 acquired CAVB patients were implanted temporary pacemaker and 5 with permanent pacemaker. Among 52 acquired CAVB patients,31 cases were cured,9 cases were improved,1 1 cases were ineffective,and 1 case died.Conclusions Most congenital CAVB children without clinical symptoms need clinical follow -ups.Myocarditis is a major cause of acquired CAVB.The CAVB prognosis caused by fulminant myocarditis may be related to antimely im-planting the temporary pacemaker timely.Permanent pacemaker should be implanted in patients who have no response to drug therapy with frequent Adams -Stokes or heart failure.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of the newly discovered tricuspid injury during the fol-low -up of the patients with interventional transcatheter closure for perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD). Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data was performed in the successful completion of membranous VSD in-tervention from March 2003 to April 2015,and 11 cases of serious tricuspid injury in children were found during the fol-low -up.Results Among 11 children,10 cases underwent surgery again,and in 7 cases of them with pseudoaneurysm of perimembranous septum,the occluders were deviated toward the right ventricul which caused valvular inadequacy for plate winding closures,extrusion and wear of tricuspid chordae and /or leaflet by right ventricul(RV)disc.Among them,1 case was caused by leaflet fusion tear and tricuspid valve insufficiency;3 cases without pseudoaneurysm were caused by a spindle like RV disc recovery structure protruding into the right ventricle,and then the disc squeezed the tricuspid tendinous cord or leaflet and the right ventricular disc nut wrapped tendon of tricuspid valve finally leading to tricuspid valve insufficiency.There was a small amount of tricuspid regurgitation after surgery;the cardiac size and car-diac function returned to normal.One case did not receive surgery,and at present the right atrium and right ventricle were significantly enlarged,and the activity was limited.Conclusions Tricuspid injury discovered newly after perimem-branous VSD interventional therapy is more common in pseudoaneurysm with large tumor occluding the right ventricular disc resulting in poor formation,and it is important to consider these factors in choosing the size of the occluder and the operation.Long term follow -up mechanism should be established for the treatment of VSD after interventional therapy.
