AIM: To investigate the effect of nitric oxid e (NO) and taurin on hemorrhagic shock /reperfusion injury. METHODS: Twenty-four rabbit s were divided randomly into 3 groups ( n= 8): control group and shock group and taurine group. The model of hemorrhagic shock/reperfusion was used. The activities of ni tric oxide synthase (NOS),superoxide dismutase(SOD),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)and the contents of malondialdehyde(MDA),nitric oxide pvoducts( NO - 2/NO - 3) in plasma were observed before shock and shock 1.5 h,reper fusion 1 h ,2 h and reperfusion 3 h. RESULTS: ①During shock/reperfusion, the ac tivities of NOS,LDH and the contents of MDA,NO - 2/NO - 3 were significan tly highe r, but the activity of SOD was significantly lower in plasma of shock group than that of before shock and shock 1.5 h. ②At 3 h reperfusion, the activity of NOS and the contents of MDA, NO - 2/NO - 3 were significantly higher,bu t the act ivity of SOD was significantly lower in the lung and heart of shock group than t hat of control group. ③ Taurine(40 mg?kg -1 ,iv) attenuated all the c hanges above mentioned at total time points of reperfusion. ④ A close correlation was shown between MDA content and NO - 2/NO - 3 content in plasma, lung and i n heart. CONCLUSION: These results suggeste that NO may be involved in oxida nt-mediated shock/reperfusion, antagonistic effect of taurine on hemorrhagic shock/reperfusi on injury may be relate d to decreasing the generation of NO and anti-lipoperoxidation.

HepG2 cells were pre-incubated with insulin (Ins 0,1,0. 1,0.01 μol/L) and dexamethasone ( Dex 0,3,0. 3,0.03 μol/L) alone or together for 24 h to induce insulin resistance (IR) in vitro, the resistant level was estimated by glucose consumption, the optimal model of insulin resitance was chosen, and at the same time its lasting time of resistance was determined. In order to investigate the effects and mechanisms of mifepristone on in sulin-resistant HepG2 cells induced by insulin and dexamethasone, mifepristone and pioglitazone were adminis tered 24 h after the optimal model of insulin-resistant HepG2 cells was established. The glucose consumption, in tracellular concentrations of glucose, glycogen, ATP, and free fatty acid (FFA) in each group were detected. The expression of InsR-mRNA and GR-mRNA was detected by semi-quantitative reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (SqRT-PCR). Results revealed that pretreatment with insulin (0. 1 μmol/L) and dexamethasone (0.3 (μol/L) for 24 h caused optimal insulin resistance of HepG2 cells which lasted for 36 h. Compared with control group, the glucose consumption, intracellular glucose, glycogen, ATP contents and the level of InsR-mRNA in model cells decreased while FFAs concentrations and GR-mRNA increased. However, the tendency of insulin resistant HepG2 cells was obviously attenuated by pioglitazone at the concentration of 0. 2 mmol/L and mifepris tone at 200μmol/L and 20 μol/L while mifepristone at 2 μol/L had no effect on insulin-resistant cells. The findings indicated that mifepristone at 200 μol/L and 20 μol/L improved the insulin resistance via modulating intracellular glucolipid metabolism and the expression of InsR-mRNA and GR-mRNA.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PICCO) target oriented role monitoring technique on hemodynamics in patients with intractable heart failure.Methods Eighteen patients with intractable heart failure were selected as control group and received regular treatment including internal medicine under monitoring by central venous pressure.Another 18 patients with refractory heart failure were selected as PICCO group and given the internal medicine under PICCO monitoring.Intrathoracic blood volume index(ITBVI),global end diastolic volume index(GEDVI),extravascular lung water index (EVLWI),cardiac index (CFI),N-terminal B type natriuretic peptide precursor(NT-proBNP) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) were recorded.The data including mortality rate,ventilation time,intensive care time,APACHE Ⅱ score and the re-hospitalization rate were also record at 28th day.Results Compared with before treatment,ITBVI,GEDVI,EVLWI in PICCO group were (1 282.6 ± 196.4) ml/m2,(1 026.8 ±92.1) ml/m2,(12.9 ± 5.5) ml/kg respectively,significant different from that before treatment ((907.4±78.3) ml/m2,t =8.75,P =0.001; (715.2 ±61.8) ml/m2,t =6.48,P =0.003; (6.5 ± 1.2)ml/kg),t =2.94,P =0.033) and they are all back to normal level.The indices of CFI,NT-proBNP,LVEF in PICCO group were improved than before treatment (CFI:(3.1 ±0.5) L/min vs.(4.8 ± 1.3) L/min,t =2.56,P=0.042) ;NT-proBNP:(6 438.3 ±249.5) ng/L vs.(1 371.6 ±87.5) ng/L,t =5.12,P =0.019) ;LVEF:(26.9±3.1)％ vs.(54.3 ±2.5)％,t =2.62,P =0.040)).Mortality at 28th D in PICCO group was 16.7％,lower than that of control group (33.3％,x2 =4.99,P =0.026).The indices of assisted ventilation time,intensive care time,APACHE score of lⅡ and the rehospitalization ratein PICCO group were better than that of the control group ((8.5 ±2.3) dvs.(3.2±0.8) d,t=24.31,P＜0.05;(14.9±2.3) dvs.(8.3 ±2.0)d,t=12.26,P=0.002;(23.4±1.3) vs.(14.7±1.6),t=9.52,P=0.011;38.9％ vs.11.1％; t=5.79,P =0.020).Conclusion PICCO provides effective guidance for intractable heart failure patients hemodynamic monitoring of goal orientation.

Results:Compared with the normal group,levels of serum TC,TG decreased apparently in model and every drug groups(P0.05).Conclusion:Baoganning can effectively prevent and treat liver fibrosis in rats,which may be closely related to the improvement of liver function,adjustment of lipid and reduction of serum leptin.

Objective To explore the anti-hepatic-fibrosis mechanism of Baogan Ning(BN).Methods Fifty Wistar rats were randomized into 5 groups: normal group,model group,high-and low-dosage BN groups(35.4 and 17.7 g/kg respectively),and colchicine group(0.11mg/kg).Rat models of hepatic fibrosis were induced by multiplex factors.Hepatic protein was extracted,and the expression of hepatic leptic receptors of OB-Rb,JAK2 and STAT3 was detected with Western Blot method.Results The protein expression was not obvious in the normal group,and the color of protein band in the medication groups was light but dark in the model group.Compared with the normal group,the expression of OB-Rb,JAK2 and STAT3 increased in the model group.However,the expression of OB-Rb,JAK2 and STAT3 decreased in the medication groups as compared with the model group.And the expression of OB-Rb,JAK2 and STAT3 decreased in the BN groups as compared with the colchicines group.Conclusion The anti-hepatic-fibrosis mechanism of Baogan Ning is probably related with the inhibition of OB-Rb expression,thus inhibit the JAK2/STAT3 message pathway.

Objective To relate the results of surface electromyography (sEMG) of the femoris among patients with hemiplegia after a brain lesion with scores on the modified Ashworth scale (MAS),and to decide whether sEMG can be used as a quantitative index for evaluating spasm.Methods The affected quadriceps femoris of sixty hemiplegic stroke survivors were assessed by the same therapist using the MAS.sEMGs were also recorded and the root mean square and average sEMG readings from the vastus medialis (VM),rectus femoris (RF) and vastus lateralis (VL) were extracted.The correlation between these sEMG indexes and the MAS grading was analyzed.Results The average sEMG signals from the VM,RF and VL were strongly correlated with the MAS grading,and they increased with increasing MAS grade.Spearman correlation analysis demonstrated highly significant correlation (P ≤ 0.001) when the quadriceps femoris was moved passively.Conclusions Surface EMG signals from the VM,RF and VL correlate well with MAS grades,rising when the affected quadriceps femoris of a stroke survivor is moved passively.sEMG can present the electrical activity during passive movements of the quadriceps femoris and can be useful in spasticity assessment and clinical treatment.
