Objective To study the effects of obstructive sleep apneas on endothelial function and autonomic modulation. Methods From June 2009 to June 2011, male patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) were consecutively enrolled in this study. Patients with an apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) of greater than 15 and without previous treatment for OSAHS were included as Group OSAHS and obese subjects with an AHI of less than 5 were included as non-OSAHS controls (Group Control). Electrocardiography and beat-to-beat blood pressure were continuously recorded from the radial artery by applanation tonometry which was synchronized with polysomnography recording. Endothelial function was measured by arterial augmentation index (AAI). Spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) and blood pressure variability (BPV) were computed for cardiac parasympathetic modulation (high frequency power, HF); sympathetic modulation (low frequency power, LF), sympathovagal balance (LF/HF power of R-R variability, LF/HF) and BPV sympathetic modulation (BPV LF) in normalized units [total power of the components/(total power-very LF power)×100]. Results Finally, 27 moderate-severe OSAHS patients and 22 non-OSAHS obese controls were recruited in the Group OSAHS and Group Control, respectively. In Group OSAHS, the age was 43.3±9.3 year-old, body mass index (BMI) was 36.8±8.7 kg/m2; in Group Control, the age was 42.9±8.6 year-old, BMI was 34.4±7.9 kg/m2; there were no significant differences in age and BMI between the Group OSAHS and Group Control (all P>0.05). The baseline AAI (12.5%±2.2% vs. 8.2%±2.1%) and BPV LF (68.3%±13.5% vs. 61.1%±11.7%) of the Group OSAHS were significantly higher than those of the Group Control (all P<0.05). And after overnight sleep, systolic BP (143.7±14.2 vs. 132.8±13.3 mm Hg), diastolic BP (87.7±7.7 vs. 78.6±5.5 mm Hg), HRV LF (69.7%±14.4% vs. 64.3%±12.1%), HRV LF/HF (3.7±2.0 vs. 2.3±1.3) and BPV LF (77.8%±15.6% vs. 68.3%±13.5%) of the Group OSAHS were significantly increased (all P<0.001), while HRV HF was significantly decreased (21.1%±9.3% vs. 27.5%±10.3%, P<0.05) from baseline.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of rigid bronchoscope combined with fiber bronchoscope application in children with airway obstruction.METHODS Retrospective analysis of 176 cases children with airway obstruction from January 1, 2006 to January1, 2016, all patients were diagnosised and treated in our hospital. RESULTS All children were acceptted rigid bronchoscopy combined with fiber bronchoscope under general anesthesia, then received the different thrapy according to the different causes. 104 patients with airway foreign body were all obtained satisfactory effect, 2 cases of children with bronchial foreign body(cap) inspection, failed to remove and contact thoracic surgery doctors to remove the foreign body by thoracotomy. 10 plastic bronchitis patients improved after treatment or cured. 7 cases of bronchial tuberculosis were cured after treatment. 4 patients with airway tumor after minimally invasive surgery, obtained good effect, 2 cases were turned to the other cancer hospital. 2 cases of patients with tracheal stenosis, the symptom is reduced after expansion. Bronchial granulation, tracheomalacia, bronchial softening, bronchial atresia patients improved after treatment. This group of all patients with pneumonia were cured after symptomatic treatment.CONCLUSION Rigid bronchoscopy and fiber bronchoscope are both useful for diagnosis and treatment of children with airway obstruction, both have its advantages and disadvantages, combined application can improve the accuracy of disease diagnosis and timely intervention on the patients.

Objective To explore the value and advantage of intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring in the treatment of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) through minimally invasive surgery. Methods Seventy-three HICH cases were randomly selected and then divided into control group and treatment group. Thirty-four of them in control group received soft-channel minimally invasive hematoma removal. The head of the soft-channel was placed in the center of the hematoma. One third to half of the initial hematoma was extracted during the operation. Urokinase was injected into the soft channel to dissolve the hematoma. Thirty-nine of them in treatment group underwent the same operation procedure but with ICP monitoring to control aspirating hematoma during the operation. The target ICP was 15 mmHg. The aspiration of hematoma may stop once the ICP down to the target. Treatment such as urokinase injection was adjusted according to the value of ICP monitoring throughout the operation. The incidence of rebleeding, hematoma evacuation time and the average length of stay between two groups were compared. Results The results showed that one fifth of hematoma extracted was enough for a desired ICP. There found no rebleeding case in treatment group while 4 cases in control group and the difference had statistical significance. The hematoma evacuation time and the average length of stay between two groups had statistical significance. Conclusion Continuous ICP monitoring combined with directional software channel minimally invasive surgery changes the concept of empirically intraoperative hematoma evacuation and postoperative drug injection and proposes the idea of controlling drainage. It can shorten the course, provide sensitive and objective indicators and basis, reduce the secondary brain injury and improve prognosis.

BACKGROUND:Methods after mechanical stimulation can be combined with various kinds of cells to produce many conversion types so as to start the various physiological functions of the body. OBJECTIVE:To analysis the reason why rol ing massage can improve the intracellular concentration of Ca2+METHODS:A biodynamic experimental device was set up, composed of pressure generating device, pressure forming device, pressure display device and related data recording device. We detected the effects of rol ing massage on Ca . 2+concentration in normal skeletal muscle cells and damaged cells through the different functions of the experimental device and system software. These functions consisted of pressure display, data transmission and recording, signal acquisition and processing, pressure signal acquisition, control and processing of signal acquisition, wireless signal transmission and receiving system, display system, storage system, system implementation function. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The experiment results showed that rol ing massage could reduce the Ca 2+concentration in the normal skeletal muscle cells and damaged cells. These findings suggest that rol ing massage can improve the overload of intracellular Ca2+in damaged cells, and it is superior to the sinusoidal mechanical stimulus.

Objective To observe the effects of Suoquan Wan(SQW) on the endocrine and immune function of the polyuria rats with kidney-yang deficiency. Methods The model rats were induced by gastric infusion of adenine(250 mg/kg) for 4 weeks, then treated respectively with SQW (at low, middle and high dose respectively), Shenqi Wan and desmopressin for another 4 weeks. The bodyweight and organ index were recorded, and serum cortisone concentration were detected. T cell subsets in peripheral blood were determined by flow cytometry. Results The bodyweight of rats in model group was lower than that in the normal control group. And the bodyweight of rats in desmopressin group, middle-and high-dose SQW groups differed from that in the model group (P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). The decreased organ indexes of pituitary, adrenal and thymic glands were found in the model group (P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01 compared with the normal group). The thymus index was elevated in all the medication groups except the low-dose SQW group (P < 0. 05). The elevated organ indexes of pituitary and adrenal glands were only found in Shenqi Wan group and high-dose SQW group (P < 0. 05). In the model group serum cortisone concentration was decreased (P < 0. 01). In Shengqi Wan group and middle-and high-dose SQW groups, the cortisone concentration was significantly increased (P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01, compared with the model group). In the model group, the percentages of CD3+ and CD3+/CD4+ T cell subsets in pe-ripheral blood were decreased, and the percentage of CD3+/CD8+ T cell subset was increased (P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01 compared with the normal group). Compared to the model group, the percentages of CD3+ and CD3+/CD4+ T cell sub-sets were increased and the percentage of CD3+/CD8+ T cell subset was decreased in SQW group and Shenqi Wan group. But the differences of T lymphocyte subsets were insignificant between desmopressin group and the model group. Conclu-sion SQW can regulate the endocrine and immune function of the polyuria ratwith kidney-yang deficiency.

Objective To investigate the effect of mixed-skin grafting with autologous microskin and allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin on wound healing in rats,and to make a further study on the related mechanism.Methods Wistar rats were served as a allogenetic acellular dermal matrix donor rats,and SD rats as acceptors with mould of full thickness skin defects on their back.The ninety SD rats were divided into 5 groups with 18 rats in each group.Group 1 was transplanted with autologous microskin,and group 2 with allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin.Groups 3,4 and 5 were grafted with mixed-skin ratio between autologous microskin and allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin 1 ∶ 1,1 ∶ 0.5 and 1 ∶ 0.25,repectively.The rate of wound healing was measured,wound samples collected,hematoxylin and eosin stain carried out,fibronectin (FN) and laminin (LN)detected,and intergroup comparison made,respectively,2,3 and 4 weeks after skin grafting.Results The wound healing rates and FN and LN expression of mixed-skin grafting groups were higher than those of the group with autologous microskin grafting.The group of 1 ∶ 0.25 obviously increased (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusions The wound healing rate with mixed-skin grafting is higher than that with autologous microskin grafting.The best effect is achieved when the skin ratio between autologous microskin and allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin is 1 ∶ 0.25.It is possibly due to the increase of FN and LN on wound skin surface.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal (IT) dexmedetomidine on the expression of cAMP response element-binding protein phosphorylation (p-CREB) in spinal dorsal horn in a rat model of bone cancer pain. Methods Sixty-four adult female Wistar rats weighing 200-240 g were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 16 each): sham operation group (group S); bone cancer pain group (group BP); normal saline group ( group NS) ; dexmedetomidine group (group D) . Bone cancer pain was induced by injecting Walker 2S6 mammary gland carcinoma cell suspension (2 ×106 cells/ml) 10μl into the medullary cavity of the tibia in BP, NS and D groups. Groups S and BP received no IT injection. Croups NS and D received IT injection of NS 10 μl and dexme detomidine 5 μg/kg respectively 7 days after successful establishment of the model. Ten animals were selected from each group at 1 day before IT administration (T0), immediately before IT administration (T1 ) and at 1, 6, 12 and 24 h after IT administration (T2-5 ) and paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) to mechanical stimuli was measured with von Frey filaments. The other 6 rats in each group were sacrificed at T4 and the spinal cord was removed for determination of p-CREB expression in the spinal dorsal horn.Results PWT was significantly decreased at T1-5 and pCREB expression up-regulated at T4 in BP, NS and D groups compared with group S ( P ＜ 0.05) . Compared with group BP, PWT was significantly decreased at T2-5 and p-CREB expression down-regulated at T4 in group D ( P ＜0.03), while no significant change in PWT and p-CREB expression was found in group NS (P ＞ 0.05) .Conclusion IT dexmedetomidine can reduce the bone cancer pain through inhibiting the phosphorylation of CREB in rat spinal dorsal horn.
