Objective To improve the understanding of systemic mastocytosis(SM) with associated clonal haematological non-mast-cell lineage disease (SM-AHNMD). Methods The clinical and laboratory features, treatment and prognosis of a rare case of SM-AHNMD was reported and the related literatures were reviewed. Results As the second most common subtype of SM, SM-AHNMD mainly has multifocal dense infiltrates of mast cells detected in sections of bone marrow and/or other extracutaneous organs, and some special cytology or biochemical markers(toluidine blue staining,tryptase,CD117,CD25 and/or CD2) results are positive. C-kit mutations are found in most adult patients. SM-AHNMD also has clinical characters of other clonal haematological non-mast-cell lineage disease (HNMD), such as myelodysplastic syndrome,myeloproliferative neoplasms, acute myeloid leukemia. Conclusion SM-AHNMD meets criteria for SM and other HNMD. Treatment for SM-AHNMD is mainly about the therapy of HNMD, and the prognosis greatly depends on the accompanying hematological disorder.There is no special treatment for SM,and the treatment should be directed at symptomatic control.

Objective To evaluate the possible effect of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty(PTCA) on myocardial injury. Methods Serum cTnI and CK MB levels were measured in 173 patients with coronary artery disease undergone PTCA before and 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the procedure. Cardiac events during follow up in these patients were recorded. Results Serum cTnI level was increased after PTCA in 42 patients, remained normal in 84, and was over baseline level before and after the procedure in 47. Serum CK MB level was above baseline before and after the procedure in one patient and increased in 10. Compared with normal cTnI group, elevated cTnI was related to total balloon inflation time, total pressure, number of dilation and stents deployed, contrast medium dose and occurrence of angina during balloon inflation ( P 0.05). Conclusion cTnI was more sensitive and specific than CK MB in identifying minor myocardial injury during PTCA. This injury was related to the intensity of PTCA, but not enough to make worse influence on overall outcome.

Objective To evaluate protective function of ischemia preconditioning for myocardium during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), using cardiac troponin I (cTnI) as myocardial injury marker. Methods One hundred and fifty patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing PTCA were divided into two groups: Group Usual Cure (G-UC), including 120 cases, and Group Ischemia Precondition (G-IP), including 30 cases. Serum cTnI were measured before and 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the procedure respectively. The relative factors were analyzed. The cardiac events were followed-up.Results The serum cTnI levels of 29 cases elevated in G-UC, while those of 2 cases elevated in G-IP. There was statistical difference on elevated cTnI levels between the two groups (P

0.05).Conclusion hs-CRP and TCH/HDL-C are closely associated with the stenosis,their combined detection would also be helpful in the evaluation of the severity of coronary artery disease.

Objective: To compare the effects of deliberate hypotension and hemorrhagic hypotension on systemic and renal hemodynamics in dogs. Method: Twelve mongrel dogs were randomly divided into nitroprusside-deliberated hypotension group and hemorrhagic hypotension group. After surgical preparation, the MAP of the dogs was decreased to 8kPa either by infusing nitroprusside or by withdrawing arterial blood and was kept for 30 min. RBF, MAP, HR, CO and CVP were monitored continuously. Result: Hypotension induced by hemorrhage was associated with significant decrease in CO, SV and CVP compared with nitroprusside. There was no significant change in HR in both groups. Hemor rhage caused more decrease in RBF than nitroprusside did (59.0% vs 37.5%). In recovery period, RBF in both groups increased, but remained significantly less than baseline in hemorrhage group. Conclusion: Hemorrhage can cause more pronounced interference in hemodynamics and more decrease in RBF with a subsequent slower recovery than with nitroprusside at the same level of hypotension.

Objective:To compare the effects of induced hypotensions with sevoflurane and nitroprusside on hemodynamics in dogs. Method:Fourteen mongrel dogs were randomly divided into sevoflurane group and nitroprusside group. After experimental preparation,the MAP was decreased to 8kPa and was kept for 30min either with sevoflurane inhalation or with nitroprusside infusion. MAP, HR,CO,CVP,SV and SVR wrer monitored continuously. Result: During induced hypotension, CO in sevoflurane and nitroprusside groups decreased by 30.7% and 21.6% respectively; HR decreased significantly in sevoflurane group, but not in nitroprusside group; SVR in both groups showed reduction, but more pronounced in nitroprusside group. However,after the termination of sevoflurane or nitroprusside, MAP elevated over baseline with the significant increase of SVR,and CO remaining low. Conclusion:As compared with nitroprusside, sevoflurane has inhibitory effect on circulation,yet it is still efficient to induced hypotension.

Objective To observe the effects of ischemic preconditioning of hindlimb (HIP) on the expressions of heat shock protein70 (HSP70) in spinal cord of rats after spinal cord injury (SCI). MethodSprague Dawleys rats were randomly( random number) divided into three groups (20 rats in each group).In sham injury group, rats received laminectomy without SCI; while in the SCI group, rats received traumatic SCI. In HIP group, rats received HIP 8 h before SCI. The SCI animal models were made by using modified Allen's weight-drop device (50 g·cm) on L3-L4 vertebrae. HIP was induced by compressing the two lower limbs of rats alternately with a tourniquet for three cycles of ten-minute ischaemia followed by ten-minute reperfusion. Rats were sacrificed 24 h and 48 h after injury separately. The protein and mRNA of HSP70 of involved spinal cord segments were determined by using RT-PCR, hybridization in situ and immunohistochemistry. Results There was weak expression of HSP70 mRNA in rats of sham injury group, and sporadic positive cells in spinal tissue were found by using immunohistochemistry. The expressions of HSP70 mRNA 24 h and48 hours after SCI in HIP group[(22.18±3.69) and (14.15 ±4.18)] were higher than those in SCI group[(13.97±4.46) and ( 8.73 ± 3.55 )], and the differences were statistically significant (F=16.06, P = 0.005 and F = 7.43, P = 0. 028). The protein levels of HSP70 24 h and 48 hours after SCI in HIP group [(16.71±4.02) and (9.85±2.20)] were higher than those in SCI group [( 14.85 ± 3.73)and (8.78 ±2.05)], and the differences were statistically significant (F =90. 13, P =0.032 and F=34.70, P = 0. 036). Conclusions HIP can increase the transcription and expression of HSP70 in spinal cord of rats following SCI and may have the protective effects on neural tissue.

The quail model of hyperuricemia combined with abdominal obesity was induced by high purine diet.Body weight in model group showed no change.Serum uric acid level in model group was increased significantly on 7,14,21,and 28 d( P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ).Abdominal fat index in model group increased significantly on 28d.On 7 d and 28 d,serum free fatty acid level was increased significantly.Acetyl-CoA carboxylase( ACC ) protein expression in the liver of model quail was increased as shown by ELISA and immunohistochemisty ( P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ),suggesting that the alteration of ACC expression contributes to the pathogenesis of hyperuricemia combined with abdominal obesity.

Objective To investigate the pharmacodynamics of rocuronium in infants with obstructive jaundice. Methods Thirty infants aged 1 to 4 months without neuromuscular diseases or renal dysfunction were divided into two groups with 15 cases each. The patients in group A were diagnosed with biliary atresia and scheduled for the kasai operation, and those in group B were with normal liver function and scheduled for abdominal surgery as the controls. Anestheisa was induced with propofol 2 mg/kg and fentanyl 3 g/kg. Rocuronium 0. 6 mg/kg was given and neuromuscular block was recorded with acceleromyography. Results Comparing with group B, The onset time of rocuronium was significantly longer in group A than that in group B[(81±35) s vs (51±28)s](P< 0. 05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the maximum depression time [(49±15) min vs. (48±12) min]or the clinical duration of action[(76±20) min vs. (71±14) min]. Conclusion The onset time of rocuronium is prolonged in infants with obstructive jaundice.

Objective To investigate the relationship between monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) gene -2518G/A polymorphism and cerebral infarction(CI) of Han population in Chinese Hunan district.Methods The -2518G/A polymorphism in MCP-1 gene was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (PCR-RFLP) and DNA sequencing in 162 patients with CI (CI group) and 150 normal controls (NC group). The serum level of MCP-1 in the two groups was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results In CI group, genotypic frequency of GG was 39.5%, GA was 37.0%, and AA was 23.5%. The allele frequency of G was 58.0% and A was 42.0%. In NC group, genotypic frequency of GG was 27.3%, GA was 39.3%, and AA was 33.4%. The allele frequency of G was 47.0% and A was 53.0%. The frequencies of MCP-1 -2518GG genetype and G allele in CI group were significantly higher than those in CI group (all P
