ABSTRACT
To explore the effect of ulinastatin on perioperative glycocalyx and lung function in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement surgery. Methods: Fourty patients, undergoing mitral valve replacement, were randomly allocated into a control group and an ulinastatin group, which were administrated 50 mL normal saline or 2×104 U/kg ulinastatin at the beginning of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), respectively. The radical artery blood was collected at 4 time points: After induction of anesthesia (T0), at 10 min after the start of CPB (T1), 1 h after the end of CPB (T2), and 8 h after operation. The concentration of syndecan-1 and TNF-α in blood was measured. Moreover, the blood gas analysis was preformed and the oxygen index (OI) and difference in alveolar arterial oxygen partial pressure (PA-aO2) were calculated at T0, T2, and T3. Results: There were no significant difference between the 2 groups in OI, PA-aO2, and the concentration of syndecan-1 and TNF-α at T0 (P>0.05). The concentration of syndecan-1 and TNF-α was significantly increased at T1 and T2 in the 2 groups, and reached peak at T2. Compared with the control group, the concentration of syndecan-1 and TNF-α was decreased in the ulinastatin group at T1, T2, and T3 (P<0.05). Compared with T0, OI was lower and PA-aO2 was higher at T2 and T3 in both groups, but the 2 indexes were improved in the ulinastatin group compared with those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Ulinastatin can improve the post-operative pulmonary ventilation function in patients with mitral valve replacement. The mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of TNF-α release and the reduction of glycocalyx shedding induced by ulinastatin.

Objective To survey village doctors'knowledge,demand and behavior of health management,to provide scientific evidence for village people's health self-management.Methods Prepared a self-designed question-naire and make it completed by 106 village doctors chosen at random from 106 different villages in the eight towns in Guangzhou's two mountainous districts.Results The average age of the village doctors was(50.9 1 ±7.84)years, 36.79% of them had the ultimate diploma of a health technical school,and the average knowledge rate of health man-agement was 30.09%.There was remarkable difference among the 3 age groups which disclosed statistic value(χ2 =112.900,P =0.000).The 35-44 age group was the highest in the knowledge rate of health management (52.61%). The doctors with a ultimate technical diploma vary in the knowledge rate (the highest was 47.44%),which also had statistic value(χ2 =112.900,P =0.000).Only 2.83% of the village doctors believed that their health management skill can completely meetthe current demand and 3.77% can.18.87% believed that training about health management was very meaningfuland 25.47% meaningful.63.21% (most required by the health bureau) expected to receive training.16.98% didn't receive such training in the recent year because they thought it was un-necessary or not available.11.32% of the village doctors were willing to pay for the health management training,while 97.17% had never taken such training on their own expenses.Conclusion Village doctors are mostly elderly,low-educated,and insufficient in the professional knowledge of health management.Without the corresponding motivations and regulations,they are not enthusiastic about the training.It is suggested that the local authorities pay more attention to the buildup of the village health stations and improve the structure,knowledge,and earning of the village doctor group so as to ensure the effective health management service for the masses in villages.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of transplantation of bone marrow stem cells(BMSCs)transfected with bone morphogenetic protein-2(BMP-2)on fracture healing in rats with diabetes so as to provide a new therapy for diabetic fractures.Methods Fifty male adult Wistar rats aged six weeks randomized to the control group and experimental group were all employed to establish models with diabetic fractures.Under high glucose condition,BMSCs were transfected with BMP-2 by adenovirus vector in vitro.BMSCs transfected by BMP-2 were transplanted into the fracture area of rats in the experimental group,while non-transfected BMSCs into the corresponding area of rats in the control group.X-ray examination was performed at 1,2,3,4 and 6 weeks after transplantation.Bony calluses were collected for HE staining and gray scales of BMP-2 in calluses were determined by immunohistochemical method.Meanwhile,serum levels of BMP-2 were measured by ELtSA.Results The gray scales of BMP-2 in the calluses were 83±3 in the experimental group and 118±4 in the control group at four weeks(P＜0.01).The serum concentrations of BMP-2 were(203.80±8.96)ng/L in the experimental group and(139.15±4.19)ng/L in the control group at four weeks(P＜0.01).Conclusion Transplantation of BMSCs transfected by BMP-2 promotes fracture healing in diabetic rats.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To prepare anti-human PSA(Prostate Specific Antigen)monoclonal antibodys(McAb)and identify their distinct biological function.Methods:Prostate Specific Antigen(PSA)was purified by salting out,ion exchange and gel filtration method from human sperm.The purity and contents of the objective protein was detected by SPS-PAGE and f-PSA EiAsy.BALB/c mice were immunized with the purified PSA purified.Then the immunized splenocytes were isolated and fused with a hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine-sensitive mouse myeloma cell line SP2/0.Positive clones were screened by limiting dilution method.After acquisition of the hybidomas secreting anti-PSA monoclonal antibody,investigation of their sub-class isotype,binding affinity and specificity were followed.Results:Fifteen hybridoma cell lines that could continuously secret anti-PSA monoclonal antibody were obtained.An Ig subclass was classified as IgG2a and the other were IgG1.Conclusion:This McAb is propitious to establish PSA-ELISA diagnose reagent.
