OBJECTIVE: To observe whether injection of medicine into low hydraulic resistance point along meridian brings about higher medicinal effect and to explore the efficacy of the theory that meridians are made up of channels featuring low hydraulic resistance by observing the diuretic effect of injecting furosemide or saline into the low hydraulic resistance point Shuifen (CV 9), vein and Zusanli (St 36) respectively. METHODS: Acute edema was induced in pigs by rapid intravenous injection of 2 000 ml normal saline. The pigs were divided into four groups: Shuifen (CV 9) injection of half dose furosemide group (SFF group), intravenous injection of full dose furosemide group (VF group), Zusanli (St 36) injection of full dose furosemide group (ZSLF group), and Shuifen (CV 9) injection of half dose normal saline group (SFS group). The accumulated urine quantity and the urine quantity generated in every 15-minute period were measured in each group respectively, every 15 minutes after injection, and the measurement lasted for two hours at one experiment. Each group involved eight times of experiments with one pig used for one experiment, which means the whole observation involved 32 times of experiments. RESULTS: The accumulated urine quantities observed in both SFF group and VF group were higher than those in the ZSLF group and the SFS group all through the measurement, showing significant differences during the period from the 15th minute to the 45th minute (P<0.05). But no significant difference was observed between the SFF group and the VF group during the whole 2-hour measurement (P>0.05). Analysis of urine quantity generated in every 15-minute period showed that diuretic effect climaxed during the 15th minute to the 30th minute in both SFF group and VF group. By contrast, ZSLF group reached diuresis climax during the 45th minute to 60th minute and no diuresis climax was observed in the SFS group all through the measurement. CONCLUSION: Injection of medicine into low hydraulic resistance point along meridian generates faster and more powerful medicinal potency, and this is likely to be applied to clinical practice. The theory that meridians are channels featuring low hydraulic resistance is important to the elucidation of meridians.

Objective: To observe the influence of transcutaneous CO2emission (TCE) at points on the meridian or beside the meridian after different stimulations like acupuncture De-qi, sham acupuncture, study the correlation between acupuncture De-qi and local energy metabolism through TCE. Methods: Twenty healthy volunteers (male 8, female 12, average age 29 years old) were selected. Before, during and after five different acupuncture Neignan (PC 6), the TCE was measured at Quze (PC 3), point A [at the lower one fourth of line between Tianquan (PC 2) and Quze (PC 3)], point B [at the middle of line between Ximen (PC 4) and Quze (PC 3)], point C (2 cm ulnar side point A) and point D (2 cm ulnar side point B) with a high sensitive C02 instrument (Frewil-Q.F., made in China). The measure results were compared. Results: The comparison on value of TCE before and after the acupuncture, in Sham acupuncture and shallow acupuncture groups, it increased in all five points; in De-qi acupuncture group, there are significant increase on point A, point B, and Quze (PC 3), it has statistic significance, but there are no significant increase on point C and D. After Ximen (PC 4) or Daling (PC 7) were pressed to block Neiguan (PC 6), the value of TCE on Quze (PC 3), point A and point B were decreased during acupuncture Neiguan (PC 6), and increased after the block was removed, but there was no significant difference. Conclusion: Sham acupuncture has also some effects on body, it can increase energy metabolism of local skin, it may be the reason that shallow acupuncture without qi amving can obtain clinical efficacy. The operation method of traditional qi arriving acupuncture can increase energy metabolism of relevant meridian skin, mechanical press can reduce this effect.

Objective: In the authors' previous study, acupuncture had an effect along meridians. The effect ofacupuncture can be represented by local energy metabolism which can be expressed by transcutaneous CO2 emission (TCE). To study the transportation of the effect of acupuncture and the influence to the transportation when blocking the meridians, the following experiment was carried out. Methods: Twenty healthy volunteers (male 8, female 12, average age 29) were examined on pericardium meridian at points between Quze (PC 3) and Tianquan (PC 2) (Point a), between Ximen (PC 4) and Quze (PC 3) (Point b), two control points (c and d) beside a and b and Quze (PC 3). TCE was measured on these five points before, during and after acupuncturing Neiguan (PC 6) by a high sensitive CO2 instrument (Frewil-Q.F., made in China). Mechanical pressure of 1 kg (2 cm~ 1 cm area) was given on Ximen (PC 4) or Daling (PC 7) during the acupuncture and TCE were measured before acupuncture, during acupuncture and mechanical pressing, withdrawing acupuncture but keeping pressing and after withdrawing the pressure. Results: TCE increased significantly on point a, b and Quze (PC 3) during and after acupuncture without mechanical press. When mechanical press was given at Ximen (PC 4), no significantly increase was found on above three points during and after acupuncture. When pressing Daling (PC 7), there was still significant (P<0.05) increase at Quz~ (PC 3) and point during acupuncture and significant increase (P<0.05) at point b after acupuncuture while pressing was kept. Conclusion: Acupuncture can enhance the energy metabolism expressed by TCE along meridians and this effect can be eliminated by mechanical pressing along meridians on the way between acupuncture point and measured point.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannulae oxygen (HFNC) in patients with respiratory failure.Methods Computerized PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, VIP, Wanfang Database up to March 31st, 2017, all published available randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or cohort studies about HFNC therapy for patients with respiratory failure were searched. The control group was treated with face mask oxygen therapy (FM) or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV), while the experimental group was treated with HFNC. The main outcomemeasurements included endotracheal intubation rate, patient comfort, and the secondary outcome was in-hospital mortality. The quality of the literature was completed by two professionally trained evidence-based medical students, and meta-analysis was performed on quality-compliant literature. Funnel plot was used to analyze the publication bias.Results A total of 17 articles were enrolled including 15 RCTs and 2 cohort studies. There were 3909 patients enrolled, 1907 patients in HFNC group, and 2002 in control group (1068 patients with FM, and 934 with NIPPV). Meta-analysis showed that HFNC had a significant advantage over FM in reducing the tracheal intubation rate of patients with respiratory failure [odds ratio (OR) = 0.51, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.29-0.89,P = 0.02], but there was no significant difference as compared with that of NIPPV (OR = 0.80, 95%CI = 0.54-1.17,P = 0.25). It was shown by pooled analysis of two subgroups that compared with FM/NIPPV, HFNC had a significant advantage in reducing tracheal intubation rate in patients with respiratory failure (pooledOR = 0.66, 95%CI = 0.47-0.94, P = 0.02). Compared with FM, patients with respiratory failure were more likely to receive HFNC for comfort [standardized mean difference (SMD) = -0.41, 95%CI = -0.56 to -0.26,P < 0.00001]. There was no significant difference in hospital mortality between HFNC and FM (OR = 0.82, 95%CI = 0.55-1.24,P = 0.35) or NIPPV (OR = 0.66, 95%CI = 0.37-1.17, P = 0.16). The results of pooled analysis of two subgroups were still unchanged (pooledOR = 0.75, 95%CI = 0.54-1.05, P = 0.09). It was shown by the funnel analysis that there was a bias in the study of tracheal intubation rate in the literature, while the bias of patient comfort and hospital mortality was low.Conclusions Compared with FM, HFNC could reduce the rate of tracheal intubation in patients with respiratory failure, but no difference was found as compared with NIPPV. Compared with FM, HFNC made patients more comfortable, and it was easier to be accepted and tolerated. However, there was no difference in hospital mortality among FM, NIPPV, and HFNC.

Objective To explore the effect of airway humidification on lung injury as a result of mechanical ventilation with different tidal volume(VT). Methods Twenty-four male Japanese white rabbits were randomly divided into four groups:low VT with airway humidification group,high VT with airway humidification group,low VT and high VT group without humidification,with 6 rabbits in each group. Mechanical ventilation was started after intubation and lasted for 6 hours. Low VT denoted 8 mL/kg,while high VT was 16 mL/kg,fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2)denoted 0.40,positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP)was 0. Temperature at Y piece of circuit in airway humidification groups was monitored and controlled at 40℃. Arterial blood gas analysis,including pH value,arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2),lung mechanics indexes, including peak airway pressure(Ppeak)and airway resistance(Raw),and lung compliance was measured at 0,2,4, 6 hours of mechanical ventilation. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin-8(IL-8)in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The animals were sacrificed at the end of mechanical ventilation. The wet to dry(W/D)ratio of lung tissues was calculated. Histopathologic changes in the lung tissueies were observed with microscope,and lung injury score was calculated. Scanning and transmission electron microscopies were used to examine the integrity of the airway cilia and the tracheal epithelium. Results Compared with low VT group,pH value in high VT group was significantly increased,PaCO2 was significantly lowered,and no difference in PaO2 was found. Ppeak,Raw,and lung compliance were significantly increased during mechanical ventilation. There were no significant differences in blood gas analysis and lung mechanics indexes between low VT with airway humidification group and low VT group. Compared with high VT group,PaCO2 in high VT with airway humidification group was significantly decreased,Ppeak raised obviously,and no difference in pH value,PaO2,Raw and pulmonary compliance was found. Compared with low VT with airway humidification group,no difference in blood gas analysis(PaCO2,mmHg,1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)was found,but Ppeak(cmH2O,1 cmH2O=0.098 kPa),Raw(cmH2O),and lung compliance(mL/cmH2O)were increased significantly in high VT with airway humidification group(PaCO2 at 2 hours:27.96±4.64 vs. 36.08±2.11,4 hours:28.62±2.93 vs. 34.55±5.50, 6 hours:29.33±2.14 vs. 35.01±5.53;Ppeak at 0 hour:14.34±1.97 vs. 8.84±1.32,2 hours:17.33±0.52 vs. 11.17±2.14,4 hours:17.83±0.98 vs. 12.67±2.06,6 hours:18.67±1.22 vs. 13.50±2.16;Raw at 0 hour:37.36±5.14 vs. 27.05±2.93,2 hours:43.94±6.58 vs. 31.95±3.56,4 hours:48.04±6.07 vs. 35.24±3.50, 6 hours:50.33±6.34 vs. 36.66±3.64;pulmonary compliance at 6 hours:2.28±0.18 vs. 1.86±0.37,all P<0.05). The lung W/D ratio in high VT group was significantly higher than that of the low VT group(6.17±2.14 vs. 3.50±1.52, P<0.05). W/D in high VT with airway humidification group was higher than that of low VT with airway humidification group but without statistically significant difference(5.17±2.14 vs. 3.00±1.10,P>0.05). Microscopic observation showed that cilia were partially detached,adhered and sparse in low VT group,while cilia in high VT group showed serious detachment and lodging. Remaining cilia were sparse,with lodging,and cellular structure was damaged. Lung tissue pathological injury score in the high VT group was significantly higher than that of low VT group(6.17±2.14 vs. 3.50±1.52,P<0.05). Cilia density and cellularity were normal in low VT with airway humidification group,and no difference in lung tissue pathological injury score was found compared with low VT group(3.00±1.10 vs. 3.50±1.52, P>0.05). Cilia were severely detached,adhered and lodging,and cellularity were not obvious in high VT with airway humidification group,and lung tissue pathological injury score was elevated significantly than that of the low VT with airway humidification group but without statistically significant difference(5.17±2.14 vs. 3.00±1.10,P>0.05). TNF-α and IL-8 concentrations showed no change in plasma and BALF in all groups during ventilation,and no significant difference was found among the groups. Conclusions Airway humidification can alleviate pathological lung injury,damage of cilia and cellular structure in trachea caused by mechanical ventilation with low and high VT. High VT with humidification can result in serious pulmonary edema.
