Objective To assess the modulation of baroreflex activity by exogenous and endogenous nitric oxide (NO) in SD rats. Method The normal baroreflex sensitivity of SD rat was evaluated by intravenous (I.v.) administration of Phenylephrine (PE, 30 μg·kg-1) to elevate blood pressure. Exogenous and endogenous nitric oxide (NO) were respectively produced by I.v. Infusion of sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 10.2 μg·kg-1) and L-arginine (L-Arg, 25 mg·kg-1). And NG-nitro-L-arginine methylester (L-NAME, 10 mg·kg-1) was infused to inhibit the generation of NO. Meanwhile, baroreflex sensitivity fluctuations caused by PE were estimated. Result Compared with the normal state, L-Arg significantly reduced the baroreflex sensitivity (Gmax) and the slope coefficient τ of the blood pressure-heart rate curve [Gmax=-1.469±0.120 beats/(min·mmHg) vs. -0.664±0.080 beats/(min·mmHg), P<0.01; τ=0.0860.005 vs. 0.0490.007, P<0.05]. SNP also led to attenuation of Gmax and τ [Gmax=-1.277±0.392 beats/(min·mmHg) vs. -0.943±0.297 beats/(min·mmHg); τ=0.074豹0.027 vs. 0.071±0.023] but the changes were not significant. In contrast to L-Arg and SNP, L-NAME induced raise of Gmax and τ [Gmax=-0.705±0.231 beats/(min·mmHg) vs. -1.065±0.200 beats/(min·mmHg); τ=0.0450.011 vs. 0.0590.026], however, they were statistically insignificant. Conclusion The results demonstrated that NO imposes effect on baroreflex activity, and the behaviors of exogenous and endogenous NO are different. Endogenous NO may be involved in the regulation of autonomic nervous system via central nervous system or carotid sinus, and inhibits the baroreflex sensitivity.

Objective To investigate the possible association of circulating components of GH-IGFs-IGFBPs system with the GHR-exon 3 genotype in idiopathic short stature (ISS) children. Methods Genomic DNA was extracted and isolat-ed from peripheral leukocytes in 108 ISS children. GHR-exon 3 polymorphism was analyzed with multiplex poly-merase chain reactions (PCR) assay. According to the results of genotype, ISS children were divided into GHRfl group and GHRd 3 group. The height and weight were recorded in two groups. The body mass index (BMI) and BMI standard deviation score (SDS) were measured. The serum levels of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1, IGF-binding protein (IGFBP)-3, IGF-1 SDS and IGFBP3 SDS were calculated. GH stimulation test was used to measure the serum GH peak value. Fifty-five ISS chil-dren were treated with recombine human GH [0.15 IU/(kg·d)] for three months to analyse the association of IGF-1 response of GH treatment and genotypes. Results There were 63 GHRfl and 45 GHRd3 in 108 ISS children. There were no signifi-cant differences in BMI, IGF-1, IGFBP3, GH peak, IGF-1 SDS and IGFBP3 SDS between two groups (P>0.05). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that age, IGFBP3, lg (BMI) and lg (GH peak) were influencing factors of lgIGF-1 (P<0.05). In 55 ISS children treated with rhGH, there were 34 cases of GHRd3. The differences of △IGF-1 and △IGF-1 SDS were higher in GHRd3 group than those of GHRfl group (n=21). Conclusion The GH sensitivity may be a risk factor in ISS children, which may not be related with GHR polymorphism.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the placement of a long tube into the small intestine under fluoroscopic guidance and to evaluate its decompression effect on early postoperative small bowel obstruction (EPSBO).
METHODSFifty-four patients with EPSBO requiring decompression between April 2010 and July 2014 were enrolled in the study. Insertion of a long tube was guided by fluoroscopy. We first used the guide wire to pass the pylorus and then used the 10 Fr feeding tube as an exchangeable tube to put the superstiff wire into the duodenum. Finally the long tube could be passed over the guide wire through the pylorus into the intestine. The total procedure time, the radiation exposure time, and the incidence of complications were evaluated.
RESULTSThe long tubes passed into the jejunum on initial insertion for all patients, so the success rate of this technique was 100%. The long tube was inserted into ileum in 18 patients. The mean total procedure time was 34.4 ± 8.6 minutes, and the mean radiation exposure time 18.9 ± 6.8 minutes. A total of 47 patients (87%) experienced full recovery following long-tube decompression and without the need for surgical intervention.
CONCLUSIONSUsing the wire-exchange technique, it is easy to place a long tube into the small bowel under fluoroscopic guidance. This decompression method is safe and effective for management of EPSBO.
