AIM: To demonstrate the changes of activity and electron microscopic enzyme cytochemistry staining of H+-K+-ATPase of gastric parietal cells under stress in rats.METHODS: Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group,stress group and stress+omeprazole(OM) group.Water immersion-restraint stress(WRS) model in SD rats was performed.The ulcer index(UI) of gastric mucosa and H+-K+-ATPase activity of gastric parietal cells were measured.The changes of ultrastructure and electron microscopic enzyme cytochemistry staining of parietal cells were observed under transmission electron microscope(TEM).RESULTS: Compared with control group,the UI of gastric mucosa and H+-K+-ATPase activity of gastric parietal cells increased(P

38 cases of Benign Monoclonal Gammopathy (BMG) representing 17.9% were screened from 212 cases of M-proteinemia by laboratory examinations. Among the 38 cases, 17 cases had increase of IgG, another 17 cases of IgA and 4 cases of IgM. Their average M-proteins were 1.42, 0.88 and 1.84 g/dl respectively.The salient points of differential of benign or malignant M-proteinemia were also discussed. The recommended sequential laboratory diagnostic procedure of BMG were as follows: tatol serum protein determination, plasma protein zone electrophresis, urine protein analysis, immunoglobulin quantitation and immunoelectrophresis or selective electrophresis.

Objective: To evaluate the consistency of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) method in monitoring cardiac volume load and cardiac hemodynamic indexes.Methods: A total of 45 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting in our hospital were selected.The right ventricular end-diastolic volume (RVEDV), right ventricular end-systolic volume (RVESV) and right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) were monitored during surgery by TEE and PAC respectively.Consistency of monitored data was compared between two methods.Results: Both TEE and PAC indicated that compared with baseline level, after loading, there were significant rise in RVEDV [TEE: (38±6)ml vs.(51±9ml), PAC: (153±17)ml vs.(188±19)ml], RVESV [TEE: (19±4)ml vs.(33±5)ml, PAC: (92±16)ml vs.(110±23)ml], P<0.01 all, but there was no significant change in RVEF, P>0.05.Before therapy, RVEDV, RVESV and RVEF monitored by PAC and TEE showed significant positive correlation, and all relevant coefficients were >0.8 (r=0.844, 0.862, 0.916, P<0.01 all);after therapy, correlation of RVEDV and RVESV significantly reduced to <0.6 (r=0.552, 0.579, P<0.05 both), but RVEF correlation remained >0.8 (r=0.892, P<0.01).Conclusion: In clinical monitor, the consistency of TEE and PAC is high,the former is non-traumatic,and is more convenient for clinical use.

Objective To study the effects of APBV (airway pressure release ventilation) / BIPAP(bipha-sic positive airway pressure) on lung recmitment/open maneuvers in piglets with acute lung injury. Method The model of acute lung injury (ALI) was induced by E. coll. intraperitoneal injection in piglets. Based APRV/BI-PAP model, the different pressure combinations (Phigh/Plow) of RMs increased gradually, such as RMI(30/15),RM2(35/20), RM3(40/25), RM4(45/30),RM5(50/35), RM6(55/40), RM7(60/45) cmH2O. The effects of stepwise RMs were studied by computed tomography (CT) at iaspiratory phase. Meantime the oxygen index (PaO2/FiO2), hemodynamic parameter and mean pressure of airway (Pmean) were continuously observed. The piglets were killed when RiMs finished and pulmonary pathological examination were done routinely by optical microscope. Data was analyzed by self-contrast method, using SPSS 11.5 software package. Results were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (x±s). Multiple comparisons were made with One-way ANOVA. Pearson correlative analysis was used to describe the relativity of PaO2/FiO2 and the collapsed alveolar area. Changes were considered as statistically significant if P value was less than 0.05. Results Eight piglets with ALl model were successfully made and all of them showed different degree of alveolar collapse under chest CT scan. During RMs their PaO2/FiO2 increased obviously (P<0.05) were decreased obviously (P<0.05) too, specially after RM2 finished (P<0. 05). But the alveolar over-inflatian could be found in some non-diseased area. The heart rate (HR) increased and mean artery blood pressure (MAP) decreased significantly while the pressure combinations (Phigh/Plow) of RMs were added gradual]y ( P<0.05). Meantime the Pmean and Ppeak inspiratory pressure (PIP) of airway and central venous pressure (CVP) were increased significantly ( P<0.05). But when RMs were finished,all of these indexes were hack to the levels of pre-RMs. Even there were no barowaumas happened, such as pneumothorax and pneumomedistinum, the alveolar overdistention and interruption of the alveolar separation still could be seen by pathologic examination. Conclusions RMs could be done well by APRV/BIPAP. Phigh/Plow (35/20cmH2O) would be the best pressure combination with more efficacy of RMs and less influence on hemodynamics,airway pressure indexes and others. When the effect of RMs was satisfied enough, setting Phigh/Plow to 30/15cmH2O for 20 mitt may maintain the good efficacy of RMs.

Objective:To explore the influence of health coaching technology on self-management ability and negative emotions in patients with cirrhosis.Methods:In this single-center, randomized, single-blind controlled trial, 90 patients with cirrhosis hospitalized from May to October 2019 were selected as study subjects by means of convenience sampling method. Subjects were included in the control group (routine chronic disease management in the department of gastroenterology) and the experimental group (health coach technical intervention) with random number table method, with 45 cases each. The self-management Behavior Scale for patients with cirrhosis and the Depression-Anxiety-stress scale (DASS-21) were used to evaluate the intervention effect.Results:Two cases in the experimental group were lost to follow-up, and 3 cases in the control group were lost to follow-up. Finally, 43 cases in the experimental group and 42 cases in the control group completed the study. After the intervention, the experimental group's self-management scores and total scores were (23.02±1.68), (25.07±1.45), (17.72±1.64), (18.95±0.90), (84.77±3.32) points, the control group were (17.14±1.49), (23.43±1.77), (15.24±1.95), (15.88±2.26), (71.69±3.85) points, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t values were 4.678-16.955, P<0.05). The scores of DASS-21 were (8.05±1.73), (7.02±1.85), (12.40±2.20) points in the experimental group and (10.10±1.83), (9.05±2.39), (14.02±1.89) points in the control group. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( t values were -5.300, -4.379, -3.659, all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The health coaching technique can effectively improve the self-management ability of patients with cirrhosis and reduce their negative emotions.

On the basis of analyzing the defects in traditional averaging theory for extracting evoked potential (EP), and by realizing the characteristic of spontaneous electroencephalo-signal (S-EES) as well as the special environment for extracting EP, we propose an auto-reference, auto-correlation, adaptive interference cancellation (AAA-ICT) for use in the single trial of flash visual evoked potential (FVEP). Firstly, the segment of reference signal, which has the best correlation with evoked electroencephalo-signal (E-EES), was obtained using the method for calculating the sliding correlation point by point between E-EES and reference signal; then, the cancellation factor between E-EES and the most correlative reference signal segment was derived by the least square method; at last, the single trial of FVEP was acquired by interference cancellation. By this method, FVEP can be extracted perfectly and the FVEP variability of individual inter-stimulation can be obtained.

In the literatures on the human vision physiology and physics, there were reports about space resolution limit of 1' visual angle, frequency resolution limit of 5 nm and time resolution limit of 0.1" of human vision. However, there has been no report about the contrast resolution limit of human vision,especially the report of measuring method and result about the contrast resolution limit of human vision based on the modern digital image processing. Here we report a modern method for measuring the contrast resolution limit of human vision based on computer digital image processing technology, and we present the measured results and their mathematical models. The function relationships of contrast resolution limit varying with background gray in a photopic or a scotopic sights were illuminated respectively. It can be expected that such investigations with regard to human vision will establish the physiological foundation of the theories and techniques in hiding bodies and hiding figures (stealth), in anti-hiding bodies and anti-hiding figures, in the night vision system independent of infrared, as well as in their relative industries.
