Objective To observe the hemodynamic effects of open-loop target controlled infusion (OLTCI) and closed-loop target controlled infusion (CLTCI) of propofol and fentanyl for general anesthesia induction. Methods Twenty-four female patients with ASA grade I-II who were performed thyroidectomy were randomly allocated into two groups: OLTCI group and CLTCI group(n=12). In OLTCI group, anesthesia induction and maintenance were performed with propofol and fentanyl at the target concentrations of 3 ?g/mL and 3 ng/mL, respectively. In CLTCI group, double CLTCI were performed. Titrations of propofol and fentanyl were guided with bispectral index (BIS) and product of systolic pressure and heart rate (HR). Initiative concentrations of this closed-loop system were 3 ?g/mL and 3 ng/mL, step-up or step-down concentrations were 0.5 ?g/mL and 0.5 ng/mL, and the highest concentrations were 6 ?g/mL and 5 ng/mL, respectively. HR, mean arterial pressure (MAP), HR variability, BIS value and the dosages of propofol and fentanyl in various time of the two groups were recorded. Results One min after intubation and simulative incision stimulation, BIS value of both groups were increased, but the BIS value in CLTCI group was less increased than OLTCI group(P

Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of ketogenic diet(KD) on refractory epilepsy in children.Methods KD treatment was designed to observe the effects for 12 weeks.Totally 22 children with 16 boys and 6 girls were enrolled in the study.The epileptic syndromes included infantile spasms(13 cases),Lennox-Gastaut syndrome(4 cases),Dravet syndrome(2 cases),and the unclassified(3 cases).The KD was prepared according to the modified Johns Hopkins regimen.Urinary ketones were measured every day to ensure that ketosis state and parents′ diaries were kept to find out when it started to work and the change of seizure frequency.Effects of KD was evaluated by Engel standard.Blood chemistry was done at baseline,4 weeks and 12 weeks to analyze the effects of KD on metabolism.Side effects were monitored and treated.Results All cases completed the KD regimen for at least 2 weeks,19 cases for at least 4 weeks,and 10 cases for at least 12 weeks.Sixteen out of 22 children experienced the seizure reduction within 3 weeks(1-15 d),especially in the first week,and seizure free appeared within 5 weeks(1-32 d) in 8 cases.Overall,the diet achieved the seizure-free in 36.4%(8/22 cases) and an over 90% of seizure frequency reduction in 22.7%(5/22 cases).The efficacy of KD seemed not correlated with the sex,age,etiopathogenisis,and syndromes and so on.Blood chemistry suggested a normal range of glucose level at 4 weeks,though higher than that at the baseline.The blood triglyceride and total cholesterol level at 12 weeks increased strikingly,even beyond the normal range compared with the baseline.The side effects mainly including transient gastrointestinal symptoms and metabolic disturbances were mostly tolerable.Conclusions KD is probably a feasible therapy on refractory epilepsy in children,with quick and high efficacy and few side effects.

Objective To investigate the characteristic of intelligence of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Methods 60 ADHD children were estimated with Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-fourth edition (WISC-Ⅳ). Results The full scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ) and 4 indices of ADHD children were lower than the average (P<0.05). All the subtests scores of ADHD children were lower than the average (P<0.05) except decoding. Conclusion The general intelligence and abilities of verbal comprehension, reasoning,working memory and operation speed are in the normal range in ADHD children, but poorer than normal children.

Objective To explore the application of Oxybuprocaine Hydrochloride Gel in colonoscopy examination. Methods 1000 patients received colonoscopy examination were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, 500 cases in each. Oxybuprocaine Hydrochloride Gel was applied on anal region in the experimental group before endoscopy for perianal anesthesia and lubrication. Paraffin oil was used in the control group to lubricate perianal and enteroscopy. The success rate of primary insertion, visual analogue pain score (VAS) score, examination time and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results In the experimental group, the success rate of primary insertion (95%) was higher than that of the control group (76%), and the pain score was lower than that of the control group.The examination time was shortened, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions Oxybuprocaine Hydrochloride Gel applied to colonoscopy can effectively reduce the patient's pain and discomfort, improve the success rate of primary insertion, shorten the examination time. And the method is worthy of clinical popularization and application.

Background Even though the change in wavefront aberrations with correction modality is well documented in the literature,little is known about the underlying mechanism.Complete understanding of the causes responsible for the wavefront change in the combined lens-eye system is important since it provides basic knowledge for further improving the technique to correct refractive error by correcting lenses.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of refractive correction lens on optical property of the eye by analyzing Zernike aberrations in myopic eyes with contact lens correction.Methods This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of Wenzhou Medical College.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject before entering this study.Zernike aberrations of 52 myopic eyes of 26 subjects with the spherical equivalent-1.75 to-8.50 D were measured using a Hartmann-Shock wavefront sensor.The human eye aberrations were examined at the uncorrected condition,rigid-gas-permeable contact lens (RGP-CL) corrected condition and soft contact lens (Soft-CL) corrected condition.The differences of wavefront aberrations and Zernike coefficients were compared by repeated measurement of single factor variance analysis,and correlation of the aberration changes between uncorrected condition and RGP-CL corrected condition or Sofi-CL corrected condition,between the right eyes and left eyes in different conditions were analyzed by Pearson linear correlation.Results Mean total root-mean-square (tRMS) was (0.71 ± 0.30)μm,(0.54±0.19)μm and (0.74±0.32)μm in the uncorrected condition,RGP-CL corrected condition and Soft-CL corrected condition,with a significant difference (F =8.758,P＜0.001),and tRMS was significant declined under the RGP-CL corrected condition compared with uncorrected condition (t =2.746,P =0.008),and tRMS in RGP-CL corrected condition was significantly lower than that in Soft-CL corrected condition (t =3.428,P =0.001).The high RMS (hRMS) was (0.34±0.12) μm,(0.28 ±0.12) μm,(0.40±0.14) μm in the uncorrected condition,RGP-CL corrected condition and Soft-CL corrected condition,with a significant difference among them (F =10.681,P＜0.001).An insignificant decrease of hRMS was seen in the RGP-CL corrected condition compared with uncorrected condition (t =1.987,P=0.053),but hRMS value was significant higher in the Soft-CL corrected condition than that in the uncorrected condition (t=2.101,P=0.041) and RGP-CL corrected condition (t=4.266,P＜0.001).Compared with uncorrected condition,the axis astigmatism (C5) and spherical aberration (C12) in the RGP-CL corrected condition and spherical aberration (C12) in the Soft-CL corrected condition were significantly reduced (P＜0.05),and the absolute values of trefoil (C6),vertical coma (C7) and tetrafoil (C10) in the RGP-CL corrected condition were lower than those of the uncorrected condition,but vertical coma (C7) absolute value in the Soft-CL corrected condition was increased (P＜0.05).A significantly positive correlation was seen in the spherical aberration (C12) between the RGP-CL corrected condition and uncorrected condition (r =0.763,P＜0.001),and less significant correlation was in the secondary astigmatism (C11) between the Soft-CL corrected condition and uncorrected condition(r=0.469,P＜0.001).Conclusions Different contact lens corrected conditions exert their effects on ocular wavefront structure due to its unique interaction with the eye.RGP-CL wearing has strong modification on wavefront aberrations probably due to its molding effect on corneal surface,which reduces the bilateral symmetry.High order wavefront aberration can be modified by Soft-CL wearing.

Objective To investigate the effects of trichostatin A(TSA)on the mice model of collagen induced arthritis(CIA).Methods Mice model of rheumatoid arthritis(RA)was induced in DBA/1 mice with type Ⅱ collagen.Paws were scored for histological severity of arthritis.The severity of inflammation of mouse joint was evaluated by histological examination.Real-time PGR was used to determine the cytokine mRNA expression.Cytokine production was measured by ELISA from serum,spleen cell culture or dendritic cell and T cell co-culture supematant.T cell proliferation was examined by MTT method.Results TSA can significantly suppress the severity of the arthritis in CIA.IFN-γ was elevated in CIA mice,but was inhibited significantly by TSA introduced either at the same time with immunization or at the onset of manifestation of arthritis.Collagen specific T cell proliferation was significantly suppressed by introduction of TSA.Increased level of IL-4 by T cells was observed in TSA treated group compared to that of control group.Conclusion IL-4 level was increased and played a critical role in the protective effects of TSA in CIA.TSA suppresses the progress of CIA by regulates the balance of Th1/Th2 differentiation.

Objective: To study the factors effecting the expression of the reporter green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene in the mouse embryo stem cell line R1. Methods: Three different kinds of GFP euko-expression vectors were constructed, and the expression efficiency was contrasted both at mRNA and protein levels after they were integrated into the chromosomes of host cells. Results: At protein level, the GFP expression level of the colonies transfected by the expression vector-pEF-GFP with the promoter of the peptide elongation factor (EF) were significantly higher than that of the colonies transfected by pCMV-GFP with CMV promoter and by pdCMV-GFP with double copies of CMV-GFP expression unit. There was no significant difference between the colonies transfected by pCMV-GFP and pdCMV-GFP. The detection results on mRNA level of GFP had the same tendency as that at protein level. Conclusion: (1) GFP gene expression efficiency controlled by EF promoter is distinctly higher than that by CMV promoter in NIH3T3 and R1 ES cell line.(2) A slight increase of the copy number of the foreign gene expression units in the host chromosome can not make obvious increase of its expression efficiency. (3) The vector express GFP in R1 ES cell line efficiently and stablely is obtained.
