ABSTRACT
Based on the results of the fourth national survey of traditional Chinese medicine resources in Turpan city, Xinjiang, this study counted the types of traditional Chinese medicine resources in Turpan Basin. The spatial distribution differences of traditional Chinese medicine resources in Turpan Basin of Xinjiang were analyzed by using grid technology, trend surface analysis, global spatial autocorrelation analysis, and local spatial autocorrelation analysis, so as to clarify the overall change trend and aggregation degree of traditional Chinese medicine resources in Turpan Basin in horizontal and vertical directions. The results showed the following: in the horizontal direction, the species richness of traditional Chinese medicine resources in the central part of Turpan Basin was high, and there were great differences in the species richness of traditional Chinese medicine resources in Turpan Basin under different grid sizes. The spatial scale effect of the richness of traditional Chinese medicine resources in Turpan Basin is obvious. Among them, under the 30 km×30 km scale, the richness of the types of Chinese medicine resources shows a high spatial correlation, and the richness of the types of Chinese medicine resources at 5 km×5 km scale presents a near random distribution state, and the richness of the types of Chinese medicine resources at 80, 90, and 100 km scale sits negatively related. Vertical direction, Chinese medicine resources appear rich at the range of-154-150 m and 900-1 050 m following by range of 1 050-1 200 m.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To assess the condition of myocardial injury after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and the effects of breviscapine (BVC) on cardiac function in children undergoing open heart surgery.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-six children (ASA II or III, aged 2-65 months) scheduled to receive ventricular septal defect repairing were randomly assigned to three groups, the control group treated with saline, and the BVC treated groups treated respectively with low dose (0.5 mg/kg) and high dose (1.0 mg/kg) BVC, 12 patients in each group. Saline or BVC (in volume of 15 mL) was administered intravenously after induction of anesthesia with micro-pump within 30 min. Blood levels of troponin I (cTn-I ) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured at different time points: pre-operation (T0), during aortic unclamping (T1), and 30 min, 1 h, 6 h, 24 h after aortic unclamping (T2, T3, T4, T5). And the time of operation, CPB, aortic unclamping, and the condition of drainage in 24 h after operation as well as the dosages of narcotics (midazolam, propofol and fentanyl) used were recorded.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>No significant difference among groups was found in terms of sex ratio, age, body weight, time of aortic unclamping, CPB and operation, as well as the dosages of narcotics used and the volume of post-operation drainage. Compared with baseline (T0), levels of cTn-I at T1, T4 and T5 increased significantly in all three groups (P<0.01), with the peak revealed at T4; cTn-I in the control group were higher than those in the low dose BVC treated group at T1 and T4 (P<0.01), and those in the high dose BVC group at T1, T4, and T5, while it was insignificantly different between the two BVC treated groups. Level of plasmal MDA began to rise in all groups at T1 with the peak revealed at T2, it lowered after then, and reached the baseline at T5; comparison between groups showed that it was lower in the BVC treated groups than in the control group at T1-T4.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Different degree of cardiac injury always happens after open heart surgery and CPB, showing high level of cTn- I within 24 h with the peak revealed at 6 h after aortic unclamping. Intravenous perfusion BVC before CPB at the dose of 0.5 or 1 mg/kg could protect the cardiac function to some extent.</p>
