ABSTRACT
[Summary] The paper reported perioperative respiratory nursing experience of 31 patients with emphysema complicating pneumothorax treated with lung volume reduction surgery under video-assisted thoracoscopy .The thoracoscopic surgery was completed in 27 patients and conventional thoracotomy were required in 4 patients because of severe pleural cavity adhesions .No severe respiratory complications occurred in all the patients .We deemed that positive preoperative mental nursing , respiratory preparation and exercises, proper physical training , intraoperative prevention of hazardous inhalation , postoperative effective analgesia , and careful management of closed thoracic drainage are key points of perioperative nursing .
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of an angiogenesis inhibitor TNP-470 (TNP )used alone and in combination with cytoxan(CTX) in the treatment of human ovarian cancer transplanted s.c. in nude mice. Methods Human ovarian cancer transplanted s.c. in nude mice model was established, then divided into 5 groups: control group, vehicle group, TNP group,CTX group and TNP+CTX group, different treatments were served from day 8 after transplantation and all mice were sacrificed after 28 days. The weights of the mice and the volumes of the tumors were measured respectively during the therapy time. Moreover, microscopy was done after H&E staining. Results The growth inhibiting rates in the TNP and CTX group were 26.1% and 33.9% respectively; After combined, the rate was increased to 70.5%. There were no obvious decrease in the weight of all treated mice. Conclusions Treatment with TNP is an potentially useful method of antitumor therapy in ovarian cancer, although the inhibition effects were not obvious in small doses. Moreover,TNP could enhance the effectiveness of antitumor drug.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To observe the effect of motilium on bronchial asthma associated with gastroesophageal reflux(GER BA). METHODS:50 cases of GER BA, were treated with routine anti asthma and motilium 20 mg tid,ranitidine 0.3 g,amoxicillin 0.5 g and metronidazolum 0.2 g tid for chronic gastritis cases, and losec 20 mg for the gastric acid rdflux at night. The treatment lasted for 1-4 wk, and then stopped to observe the response of the treatmeat. The recurrent cases would be treated as the above again. RESULTS:45 cases were cured in the 4 wk,no case recrudesced in 6 mon. 5 cases needed another the treatment for 1-4 wk since the recurrence, and 4 of the 5 cases were cured. CONCLUSION: Motilium has a good curative effect in preventing and curing bronchial asthma associated with gastroesophageal reflux.entfor1 -4wksin
