Tendency and mathematical model of relationship of blood ATP content with temperature and time of preservation / 中国实验血液学杂志

To investigate the relationship of blood ATP content with temperature and time of preservation and to establish its mathematical model, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration was applied as the index of the quality of erythrocytes; systematical study on variation of blood preserved in a series of different temperatures from 4 degrees C to 32 degrees C was performed, and a series of experimental data were obtained. The results showed that when the ATP concentration y = f (d, t, s) in preserved blood was given as the continuous function of the time (d), the temperature (t) and the initiate ATP concentration (s), the model was fitted with the theory of linearity regression in symbolic statistics, and the general mathematical physical equation of the variation of preserved blood quality was deduced. According to the equation, the whole blood in CPDA-1 solution could be efficiently stored for 35, 35, 29, 22, 18, 18, 13, 8, 7, 6, 6, 5, 4, 4 and 3 days in 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30 and 32 degrees C, respectively. In conclusion, the general tendency of the variation of preserved blood quality according to the temperature and the time was systematically disclosed for the first time, which would be propitious to estimate the blood quality in various temperatures and to instruct clinical blood transfusion.

Effect of jianxin pinglu pill on arrhythmia and aquaporin 4 expression in rats with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury / 中国中西医结合杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the effect of jianxin pinglu pill (JPP) on arrhythmia and aquaporin 4 (AQP4) in rats with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The effects of JPP on arrhythmia, mortality and AQP4 on I/R injured rats model induced by blocking left coronary artery were observed using II lead of ECG, HE stain and AQP4 immunohistochemical stain.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>JPP showed significant effect in lowering the arrhythmia occurrence and mortality, reducing myocardial ischemic edema and injury, strengthening AQP4 expression in myocardial tissue.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>JPP has the effect of preventing I/R induced arrhythmia, it might be related with its action in up-regulating AQP4 expression level in myocardium and reducing the intracellular edema.</p>
