ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the initial mechanism investigation in immune escaping correlated T cell proportion of Lewis lung cancer by Fuzheng-Peiyuan formula. To provide a theoretical basis for the application of the Chinese medicine of strengthening the body resistance in clinics. Methods The healthy C57BL/6J mice were divided into six groups by the random number table: the Chinese medicine group, the Chinese medicine plus chemotherapy group, the chemotherapy group, the model group and the normal control group. There were 6 mice in each group. All the groups expect the normal control group were inoculated subcutaneously with Lewis lung cancer cell suspension 0.2 ml. The medicine given to the Chinese medicine group were orally Fuzheng-Peiyuan formula with 8.17 g/kg. The combination group was given intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg and orally Fuzheng-Peiyuan formula 8.17 g/kg. The chemotherapy group received the injection of cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg and intragastric administration of normal saline. The model group and normal control group were administered with saline. After continuous administration for 13 days, the expressions of CD4, Foxp3, CD8 and CD28 in spleen cells of tumor bearing mice were observed by flow cytometry. Results Compared with the model group, the chemotherapy group and the chemotherapy combined with Chinese traditional medicine group showed that tumor weight (1.76 ± 0.42 g, 1.40 ± 0.43 g vs. 4.37 ± 0.59 g) significantly decreased (P<0.01); and the CD4+ Foxp3+ cells of mouse spleen cells in the Chinese medicine group and Chinese medicine plus chemotherapy group (11.25% ± 1.69%, 9.30% ± 2.68% vs. 14.21% ± 1.50 %) significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusions The result initial proved that the Chinese medicine could strengthen the body resistance, adjust the proportion of Treg and CTL in spleen T cell in tumor-bearing mouse.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the application value of routine electrocardiogram and dynamic electrocardiogram in the diagnosis of arrhythmia and heart rate variability in children.Methods In our hospital,pediatric arrhythmia patients were given routine electrocardiogram and dynamic electrocardiogram.The relationship between arrhythmia and heart rate variability in children was analyzed.Results Supraventricular tachycardia (13.33%),ventricular tachycardia(5.56%),premature ventricular contraction (21.11%),premature atrial contraction (14.44%),block (12.22%) in the dynamic electrocardiogram were significantly better than the conventional electrocardiogram,and the differences were statistically significant x2=11.93,4.56,9.22,10.74,11.55,all P<0.05).There were significant differences in the heart rate variability between ventricular arrhythmias and non-ventricular arrhythmias in children[(78.85±0.88),(4.68±2.43),(24.78±2.56),(21.66±0.94), t=10.88,11.79,9.84,9.92,all P<0.05].Conclusion Compared with routine electrocardiogram, dynamic electrocardiogram has better diagnostic value for pediatric arrhythmia of ventricular tachycardia.The detection rate of ventricular tachycardia,ventricular tachycardia,premature ventricular contraction,atrial premature contraction,conduction block and other arrhythmias are obviously superior.And dynamic ECG measurement of heart rate variability is helpful to assess the severity of the disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effect of different positive end-expiratory pressures (PEEPs) on the efficacy of volume therapy guided by global end-diastolic volume index (GEDVI) and central venous pressure (CVP) in patients with septic shock.Methods Twenty-five patients with septic shock complicated with respiratory failure,of both sexes,aged 18-64 yr,were enrolled in the study.Their APACHE [[scores were 13-31.The patients were endotracheally intubated and underwent volume-controlled ventilation,PEEP was 5-15 cmH2O,and pulse oxygen saturation was maintained ＞ 90 ％.The patients were divided into low PEEP (5-10 cmH2 O) group and high PEEP (11-15 cmH2 O) group depending on the different PEEP levels.6 ％ hydroxyethyl starch (200/0.5)6 ml/kg was infused over 30 min for volume therapy.Right internal jugular vein or subclavian vein was cannulated for CVP monitoring,and GEDVI was continuously monitored by pulse indicator continuous output monitoring (PiCCO) technology.CVP and GEDVI were recorded before and after volume therapy and the changing rate was calculated.Results Compared with CVP and GEDVI before volume therapy,CVP and GEDVI were significantly increased after volume therapy in low PEEP group (P ＜ 0.05),and GEDVI was increased after volume therapy (P ＜ 0.05) and no significant change was found in CVP after volume therapy in high PEEP group (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with low PEEP group,the changing rate of CVP was significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.05),and no significant change was found in the changing rate of GEDVI in high PEEP group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion High PEEP can decrease the efficacy of volume therapy guided by CVP,while exerts no effect on the efficacy of volume therapy guided by GEDVI in patients with septic shock.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of volume therapy guided by the response of CVP and global end-diastolic volume index (GEDVI) in septic shock patients.Methods Twenty-three patients of both sexes aged 18-64 yr who had been in septic shock for ＜ 6 h were randomly divided into 2 groups:control group (group Ⅰ,n =12) and study group (group Ⅱ,n =11 ).Tracheal intubation was performed and the patients were mechanically ventilated in both groups.Right internal jugular vein or subclavian vein was cannulated for CVP monitoring and fluid administration.PiCCO catheter was inserted into femoral artery.Normal saline,6％ hydroxyethyl starch 200/0.5,albumin and plasma were infused via CVP line.CVP was maintained ≥8 mm Hg in both groups while in Ⅱ group GEDVI was maintained at 600-750 ml/m2 during resuscitation.Blood samples were taken from artery and CVP line before (baseline) and at 6 h of volume therapy (T2) for determination of blood lactate concentration and central venous oxygen saturation ( ScVO2 ).The changing rate of lactate ( (baseline lactate concentration-lactate concentration at 6 h of volume therapy) ÷ baseline value × 100％ ) and ScvO2 ( ( ScvO2 at 6 h of volume therapy - baseline ScvO2 ) ÷ baseline value × 100％ ) ) was calculated.Results The changing rate of lactate was significantly higher in Ⅱ group than in Ⅰ group.There was no significant difference in the changing rate of ScvO2 between the 2 groups.Conclusion Volume therapy guided by CVP and GEDVI can provide better tissue perfusion than by CVP alone in septic shock patients.
