3.Progress of calcium signaling in sensory neurones and neuroglial cell in diabetic peripheral neuropathic dysfunction
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2017;33(3):308-311
Ca2+signaling is fundamental for information process-ing in the peripheral nervous system,which regulates a variety of physiological activities.Ca2+signaling and calcium homeostasis are directly associated with neuropathology.Recently,studies on Ca2+signaling contribute to a deeper comprehension of the path-ogenesis of diabetic peripheral neuropathies,which provide a new research direction for the treatment of diabetic peripheralneuropathies.This review aims to highlight the relationship be-tween calcium signaling,sensory neurones and neuroglial cells in the context of diabetic peripheral neuropathies.
4.Influence of remifentanil on Cp50 of propofol given by target-controlled fusion for loss of consciousness
Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 1995;0(10):-
Objective The aim of this prospective randomized study was to compare the effects of remifentanil (R) and fentanyl (F) given by target-controlled infusion (TCI) on the Cp50 of TCI propofol for loss of consciousness ( LOC ) . Methods Sixty-four ASA 1 or II patients aged 20-55 yr undergoing elective cholecystectomy or mastectomy under general anesthesia were enrolled in this study. Their BMI ranged from 18-30 kg?m-2. The patients were randomly allocated to one of four groups with 16 patients in each group: (1) propofol alone (P), (2) P + remifentanil (Cp = 4 ?g?L-1 ) (R4), (3) P + remifentanil (Cp = 7 ?g?L 1 ) (R7) and (4) P + fentanyl (Cp = 4?g?L-1 ) (F). The patients were unpremeditated. Anesthesia was induced with remifentanil or fentanyl and propofol both given by TCI. The plasma concentration (Cp) of remifentanil and fentanyl were fixed in each group. The Cp50 of propofol for LOC was determined by up-and-down sequential trial. Cp of propofol was set at 1.25, 1.50, 1.80, 2.16, 2.59, 3.11, 3.73 and 4.48 mg?L-1 . If a patient did not go to sleep at a certain Cp of propofol, the next patient was tested at a higher concentration conversely if the patient went to sleep a lower concentration was tested in the next patient. The BIS values and hemodynamic changes were recorded before induction and at LOC (no response to verbal command and loss of eyelash reflex). The TCI pump was controlled by pharmacokinetic models developed by Marsh (propofol) Minto ( remifentanil) and Shafer ( fentanyl) . Results The Cp of propofol for LOC in group P was 3.48 mg ? L-1 , significandy higher than that in group F (2.31 mg ? L -1 ), group R4 (2.11 mg?L-1) and group R7 (1.76mg?L-1 ) (P
5.S100 proteins and prostate cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2012;(11):870-872
The S100 proteins are a multi-gene calcium-binding family,which are differently expressed in a variety of tumors.It is found to be associated with tumor invasion and metastasis.As a tumor-associated biomarkers,unraveling the relationship between S100 and prostate cancer progression as well as molecular mechanisms,would provide an important basis for the clinical diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Yin-Huang pills combined with Banlangen granule therapy on upper respiratory infection.Methods 120 cases of acute upper respiratory infection were randomly separated into an experiment group and a control group.The experiment group was treated by Yin-Huang pills combined with Banlangen granule;while the control group was treated by Yin-Huang pills.Results There was significant difference of cure rate between the experiment group(75%)and the control group(51.6%),with P<0.01.There was no significant difference of total effective rate between the experiment group(96.6%)and the control group(88.3%),with P>0.05.Conclusion Yin-Huang pills combined with Banlangen granule therapy was more effective in controlling acute upper respiratory infection,and this therapy caused few adverse effects.

Totally 896 medical records were statistically analyzed from Jan. 1, ] 998 to Dec. 31 , 2001. There were 65 cases (7. 3%,65/896) of ischemic cardiomyopathy .of which 38 cases (58. 5% .38/65) were myocardial infarction in small area, 27 cases(41. 5% ,27/65) were in large area. The causes of ischemic cardiomyopathy were lack of blood supply in cardiac cells for a long time and pathological changes in branches of coronary artery. If myocardial infarction in small area occurred,the blood vessels should be opened again in acute period, and the risk factors must be prevented and treated.
