Objective To investigate the techniques of electrical defibrillation and their application to cardiopulmonary re-suscitation(CPR).Methods On the basis of reviewing the definition of electrical defibrillation,the main defibrillation tech-niques and their developments were introduced,as well as the selection of shock energy.The role that defibrillation played during CPR was defined according to the consensus.Results As an unfashionable technique,monophasic waveforms was inclined to be replaced by present biphasic waveform including biphasic truncated exponential(BTE) waveform and recti-linear biphasic waveform(RBW).The selected shock energy varied with the waveform that a defibrillator made use of,i.e.a monophasic defibrillator required a higher energy level as usual,whereas a biphasic one did not.It was deemed that biphasic technique presented an excellence in less damage to heart in addition to higher rate of successful defibrillation.In the critical care for sudden cardiac arrest with a shockable rhythm,the protocol of "1 shock + 5 cycles of CPR" should be recommended.Conclusion Electrical defibrillation techniques consist mainly of monophasic waveform and biphasic wave-form,between which the latter gains an advantage over the former.On the grounds of modern emergency medicine,defib-rillation has to be performed in combination with CPR.

Objective To research the applicable ways on training and examination of defibrillator utilization in grassroots units. Methods The use of the "three-step training and two-part examination" mode, that is, three-step training(theoretical instruction, grouped practice and animal experiment), a total of 83 medical officers from inferior troops of PLA were trained for the use of defibrillators, and through passing two-part test(written test and skill test), the trainees were subsequently examined so that the efficacy of the training could be evaluated. Results The trainees can be acquired satisfying achievement in the two-part test after having passed the three-step training. The respectively average scores were 86.7 ?15.9 (written test) and 90.1?14.8 (skill test). Conclusion The "three-step training and two-part test" mode is a successful defib- rillators' training mode for inferior troops.

With low molecular weight chitosan and poloxamer 188 as the joint carriers, ginsenoside Rg3 solid dispersions were prepared by using the solvent evaporation method for an in vitro dissolution test. Subsequently, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (X-RD) were adopted for a phase analysis. The results showed that the 60 min in vitro cumulative dissolution rate of ginsenoside Rg3 solid dispersions prepared with low molecular weight chitosan and poloxamer 188 at the ratio of 2:1 exceeded 90%, and the drug was dispersed in carriers in an amorphous state. Therefore, ginsenoside Rg3 solid dispersions prepared with low molecular weight chitosan and poloxamer 188 could help significantly improve the drug dissolution, with a practical application value.

Objective To observe the effects of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) induced acute epilepsy and the dynamic expression of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) in hippocampus. To explore the role of IL-1β in the pathogenesis of epilepsy by regulating AQP4. Methods All rats were randomly divided into control group, IL-1β group, PTZ group, IL-1ra + PTZ group and dexamethasone + PTZ group. Observe the behavior of the rats within 60 minutes after injection and record seizure score in each group. Then immunohistochemistry and RT-qPCR were used to detect the expression of AQP4 at at 6 , 12, 24 and 36 h. Results Almost of rats in IL-1β group and PTZ group showed severe degree seizure. The rats in control group and dexamethasone + PTZ group showed no obvious seizure. The seizure of rats were more remarkable serious in PTZ group than that in the IL-1ra + pentylenetetrazole group (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry and RT-qPCR Show: the expression of AQP4 in hippocampus in PTZ group increased gradually after 12 h (P < 0.05), then reached in the peak after 24 h (P < 0.001). The expression of AQP4 in IL-1ra + PTZ group was lower compare with PTZ group in each time (P < 0.05). Although the expression of AQP4 in dexamethasone + PTZ group higher than the control group, it was not significantly different (P < 0.05). Conclusion The proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β break the balance of water in brain and increasing the concentration of extracellular excitatory amino acids or ions by upregulate the expression of AQP4 in order to promote the excitatory of neurons.

Objective To investigate the renoprective effect and its possible mechanism of Niaoduqing on the adriamycin(ADR)-induced nephropathy rats. Methods Forty eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal control(n=12), ADR-induced nephropathy(model, n = 12), Benazepril-treated ADR nephropathy(Benazepril, n=12)and Niaoduqing-treated ADR nephropathy(Niaoduqing, n =12)groups. The rat nephropathy model was established by adriamycin injection and unilateral nephrectomy. The rats were sacrifficed per batch at the 4th and 8th weekend.The pathological change of nephridial tissue, the 24-hour urinary protein excretion and renal function were examined. Immunohistochemistry was used to meassure the expression of fibronection(FN), collagenⅣ(COLⅣ), osteopontin(OPN). Results The 24-hour urinary protein excretion, BUN, Scr, triglyeride(TG), cholesterol(Cho)in model group were significantly higher than those in normal group(P<0.01), as well as more server glomerulosclerosis in kidney were observed in model group than those in control group(P<0.01), while the albumin(Alb)was lower (P<0.01). Compared with model group, the 24-hour urinary protein excretion, BUN, Scr, TG, Cho were significantly reduced and renal glomerulosclerosis was improved in Niaoduqing group(P< 0.01), while the Alb was higher(P<0.01). Conclusion Niaoduqing palys an important role in the prevention and treatment for nephropathy.

Raw264.7 cells were incubated with receptor activator of NF-kappa B ligand (RANKL) and α-melanocyte stimulating hormone(α-MSH) for6 d.The amount of osteoclast cells were counted by tartrate resistant acid phosphatase staining and the acid phosphatase activity was assayed.The expressions of 5 melanocortin receptors (MCR) in Raw264.7 cells were determined by RT-PCR.The results showed that the number of osteoclasts in RANKL +α-MSH group was significantly increased compared with RANKL group (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no osteoclast formation in α-MSH group.Compared with control group and α-MSH group,the acid phosphatase activities were significantly increased in RANKL group and α-MSH+RANKL group (P＜0.05).All five MCRs were expressed in the Raw264.7 cells shown by RT-PCR.These results suggest that α-MSH may promote osteoclasts formation through RANK signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluate interventional therapy in the treatment of interposition graft stenosis or occlusion after mesocaval shunts.Methods The clinical data of 19 cases of artificial vessel stenosis or occlusion after mesocaval shunts for portal hypertension at our department from march 2009 to march 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.Results In the 19 cases with artificial vessels stenosis or occlusion developed after mesocaval interposition shunts for portal hypertension,there were 5 cases in which acute thrombosis occurred within a week after the surgery.Catheter directed thrombolysis was successfully conducted.In 6 cases in which shunt stenosis developing 1 to 8 years after surgery were managed by balloon dilatation or stent angioplasty successfully.The shunt graft occlusion occurred in 8 cases after 1 to 4 years of surgery was successfully managed and the shunt was reopened by balloon dilatation or stent angioplasty in 6 cases,and in 2 the procedure was failed for the guide wire can't go through the anastomotic site of artificial vessel-superior mesenteric vein.In 11 cases embolization of the esophagogastric varices was successfully carried out for postoperative standard anticoagulation.During a period of 3 months to 3 years follow-up,stenosis recurred 1 year after balloon dilatation in one case,and stenosis was managed by angioplasty successfully.Conclusions Interventional radiological techniques by percutaneous puncture through femoral vein-inferior vena cava-artificial vessel-portal vein (including catheter directed thrombolysis,balloon dilatation,stent placement,etc) are less traumatic,highly successful in the treatment of shunt stenosis or occlusion after mesocaval shunts in portal hypertension.

Objective:To validate the clinical value of CT-guided curve-needle percutaneous ethanol injection (CNPEI) for celiac plexus block analgesia. Methods: Thirty-two patients with end-stage cancer, including 13 complicated with extensive retroperitoneal lymph node enlargement and fusion, were enrolled in this study. All patients complained of refractory upper abdominal pain and had received narcotic analgesics and radiotherapy, but the analgesic effect was not good. CT-guided CNPEI was therefore prescribed. Results: The effective rates of CT-guided CNPEI were 100%, 100%, 96.9%, 90.6%, 87.5%, and 84.4% immediately,and at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 16 weeks after treatment, respectively. All enlarged lymph nodes had obvious necrosis and became shrunk. Conclusion: Combined application of bilateral anterior and posterior diaphragmatic crura block and trans-lymph node block can produce good analgesic effects, and curve-needle puncture make the above technique simpler.
