Objective To discuss the protective effect of doxofylline on radical surgery for esophageal cancer.Methods Under elective general anesthesia, 60 cases, 35 males and 25 females, aged 45-70 years, BMI 20-30 kg/m2, ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, FEV1%>50%, underwent radical surgery for esophageal cancer at middle and distal parts.Random number table was employed to divide these patients into two groups: doxofylline group (group D) and control group (group C) with 30 cases in each.After a routing intravenous induction in the two groups, mechanical ventilation was conducted after bronchial intubation with double channel catheter on the right side.The intravenous injection of doxofylline 4 mg/kg in group D was administrated 30 min after bronchial intubation with double channel catheter.Equal normal saline was instilled to the patients in group C.Blood samples were taken from radial artery to detect the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10, MDA and SOD at four time points: 10 min (T0) before the one-lung ventilation, 60 min after OLV (T1), after two-lung ventilation (T2) and the end of the operation (T3).Meanwhile, the blood and breath at these time points were tested.The occurrence of OLV, blood loss volumes, fluid input quantities, urine volumes, postoperative hyoxemia and pulmonary inflammation were observed.Results Compared with T0, the activity of SOD in serum and PaO2 in the two groups at T1-T3 decreased (P＜0.05).The concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10 and MDA increased significantly (P＜0.05).Compared with group C, the activity of SOD activities and PaO2 in group D at T1-T3 increased while concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10 and MDA decreased significantly (P＜0.05).The occurrence rates of postoperative hyoxemia and pulmonary inflammation in group D were obviously lower than those in group C (P＜0.05).Conclusion Doxofylline can suppress patients' inflammatory response and oxidative stress response after OLV and reduce the incidence rates of postoperative hyoxemia and pulmonary inflammation as well as alleviate lung injury triggered by radical surgery for esophageal cancer.

Objective:The study focuses on the distinct distributions of γδT cells in various tissues and the changes after Sal-monella typhimurium infection,and attempts to explore the physiological significance of γδT cell distribution and the role of γδT cells in infectious diseases .Methods:Flow cytometry and PCR technique were used to detect the proportion of different γδ T cell subsets among thymus,spleen,lymph nodes,liver,skin,and intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes .Flow cytometry was applied to detect the secretion of IFN-γand IL-17a.The changes of various γδT cell subsets in liver and intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes were analyze after Slamonella typhimurium infection.Res ults: γδ T cells were rich in the intestinal epithelium , skin and liver, but poor in the thymus,spleen and lymph nodes .The distribution of different subsets was quite dissimilar .Vγ5+γδT cells chiefly existed in skin ,and Vγ1+,Vγ4+,Vγ7+γδ T cells largely existed in small intestine.γδ T cells in liver mainly secreted IL-17a;however,γδ T cells in intestinal intraepithelial secreted IFN-γ.After infection by Salmonella typhimurium , the proportion of γδ T cells in intestinal intraepithelial increased significantly ,particularly Vγ1 +γδT cells.In Liver,there was no significant change of total γδT cell ratio,but the ratio of Vγ1 +γδT cells reduced ,Vγ4 +γδT cells raised.Conclusi on:γδT cells are rich in the intestinal epithelium ,skin and liv-er.The distribution of different subgroups has specificity .There are large differences in the ability of cytokine secretion among various subgroups of γδT cells.The distribution of γδT cell subgroups in small intestine and liver changes during Salmonella typhimurium in-fection.

Objective To explore the short axial strain of left ventricle in patients with atrial septal defect(ASD)before and after the transcatheter closure by using two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI).Methods A total of 30 patients with ASD underwent echocardiography before and after the transcatheter closure.The procedure was performed to obtain the peak of circumferential strain(Sc)and radial stain(Sr)of left ventricle by 2D-STI.Thirty healthy volunteers were enrolled as controls.Results ①Compared with the control group,regional myocardial Sc of ASD group decreased(P <0.05).Sc of anterior septum (AS),anterior wall (AW),laterior wall (LW)and posterior wall (PW)increased (P <0.05)at 2-days after the transcatheter closure and those parameters were higher than control group.At the six-months after the transcatheter closure,those parameters reduced to the normal level (P <0.05).Sc of inferior wall (IW)and mid-posterior septum (MP-Sept)increased to the normal level at 2-days after the closure surgery (P <0.05).②Compared with control group,regional myocardial Sr of ASD group decreased(P <0.05 ) except PW,two-days after the transcatheter closure these parameters increased to the normal level.Sr of PW in ASD group increased compared with control group(P <0.05),and there were no statistical changes at 2-days after the transcatheter closure.Sr of PW in ASD decreased (P <0.05 )to normal level until 6-months after the transcatheter closure.③ Global circumferential strain (GCS)of left ventricular in ASD group were lower than control group (P <0.05 ).At two-days after undergoing transcatheter closure the GCS increased (P <0.05)and those parameters were higher than control group (P <0.05).Six-months after the transcatheter closure those parameters reduced to the normal level (P < 0.05 ).There were no statistical differences of left ventricular global radial strain (GRS)between control group and ASD group. However,the GRS of ASD group increased (P < 0.05 )and those parameters were higher than control group (P <0.05)after 2-days undergoing the transcatheter closure.At six-months after the transcatheter closure those parameters were reduced to normal level (P <0.05 ).Conclusions 2D-STI can quantitative evaluate left ventricular circumferential strain and radial strain in patients with ASD before and after the transcatheter closure.
