Objective:To explore the relationship between respiratory mechanics and right heart function during ARDS mechanical ventilation through the establishment of Beagle dogs acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) animal model and the application of different levels of mechanical ventilation, which will provide theoretical basis for right heart protective ventilation strategy of ARDS.Methods:Beagle dogs were anesthetized successfully and then pulmonary artery floating catheter, esophageal manometric catheter and femoral artery catheter were inserted. Under the pressure control mode, the driving pressure was fixed. After adjustment, PEEP gradually increased from 2 cmH 2O to 14 cmH 2O. The changes of respiratory mechanics, hemodynamics and right heart function were observed. ARDS model was established by injecting oleic acid into central vein, and mechanical ventilation with the same parameters was given after the model was established successfully. In contrast to itself, the changes of respiratory mechanics, hemodynamics and right heart function indexes of experimental dogs before and after modeling were analyzed. In the group, the indexes of different PEEP were compared by ANOVA, and then compared by Student-Newman-Keuls. The difference was statistically significant at a P value <0.05. Results:Before modeling, the peak airway pressure (P peak) and plateau pressure (P plat) increased with the increase of PEEP ( F=232.733,196.33, P<0.05). However, P trans-I, P trans-E, C stat and Vt decreased significantly ( F=4.524, 6.499, 64.803, 2.31, P<0.05). The area of change of right ventricle (FAC) became smaller ( F=3.09, P<0.05); SV first increased and then decreased ( F=3.24, P<0.05), and CVP and MPAP increased ( F=19.07,14.81, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in TAPSE, MAP, HR and SpO 2 ( P>0.05). After modeling, as PEEP increased, P peak, P plat, P ES-I and P ES-E increased significantly ( F=24.829, 41.95, 9.78, 87.86, P<0.05). Vt, P trans-I, P trans-E, C stat and Vt first increased and then decreased ( F=2.91, 4.29, 5.84, 48.890, P<0.05). TAPSE and SV first increased and then decreased ( F=6.22,6.54, P<0.05). CVP and MPAP increased ( F=5.23, 19.24, P<0.05). MAP increased first and then decreased ( F=5.02, P<0.05). SpO 2 increased ( F=2.77, P<0.05). FAC and HR had no statistical significance ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Trans pulmonary pressure and lung compliance can reflect the effectiveness of ARDS lung recruitment, and have good synergy; with the increase of PEEP, the right ventricular systolic function TAPSE is first affected, and SV compensatory increase, but with the increase of PEEP, TAPSE and SV decrease; pulmonary blood flow distribution is more important in improving alveolar oxygenation. Therefore, real-time monitoring of trans pulmonary pressure, TAPSE and intrapulmonary blood flow should be performed in ARDS treatment.

To examine the association between serum copper concentration and the prevalence of hypertension in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Methods: A total of 935 patients who were aged ≥40 years and underwent routine checkups from October 2013 to November 2014 at the Health Management Center of Xiangya Hospital, Central South University were included. They were diagnosed as knee OA by weight-bearing bilateral anteroposterior radiography. Serum copper concentration was measured using the chemiluminescence method. Blood pressure was measured by an electronic sphygmomanometer. The association between serum copper concentration and hypertension was evaluated by conducting multivariable adjusted logistic regression.
Results: Compared with the lowest quintile, the multivariable-adjusted odds ratio (OR) and related 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of hypertension were 1.46 (95% CI 1.02 to 2.09, P for trend=0.035) and 1.47 (95% CI 0.77 to 2.78, P for trend=0.032) in the total population and female subgroup of the highestest quintile, respectively. There was no significant association between serum copper and hypertension in male subgroup among OA patients (OR=1.21, 95% CI 0.76 to 1.93, P for trend=0.354).
Conclusion: The serum copper concentration was significantly associated with the prevalence of hypertension in total population and female subgroup, but may not in male subgroup among patients with knee OA.
