Effect of dexmedetomidine on ERK/Na +-K +-ATPase signaling pathway in lung tissues of rats with mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on the extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK)/sodium-potassium ATPase(Na + -K + -ATPase)signaing pathway in lung tissues of rats with mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI). Methods:Forty-eighty clean-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 270-320 g, aged 4-5 months, were divided into 4 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), VILI (alpha2-adrenergic receptor antagonist) group (group V), dexmedetomidine group (group D), and dexmedetomidine plus yohimbine group (group DY). Group C underwent no mechanical ventilation and breathed air spontaneously for 4 h. Mechanical ventilation (respiratory rate 40 breaths/min, tidal volume 40 ml/kg, inspiratory/expiratory ratio 1∶1, PEEP 0, fraction of inspired oxygen 21%) lasted 4 h in group V. Dexmedetomidine was infused intravenously in a dose of 5.0 μg/kg at 20 min before ventilation followed by an infusion of 5.0 μg·kg -1· h -1 throughout ventilation in group D. In group DY, yohimbine 0.1 mg/kg was injected intravenously at 10 min before dexmedetomidine, and the other treatments were similar to these previously described in group D. Blood samples and lung tissues were taken at 4 h of mechanical ventilation to determine the wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio), lung permeability index (LPI), alveolar fluid clearance rate (AFC), and expression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (p-ERK), and Na + -K + -ATPase in lung tissues (by Western blot) and to observe pathological changes of lung tissues. Results:Compared with group C, LPI and W/D ratio were significantly increased, AFC was decreased, p-ERK expression was up-regulated, and Na + -K + -ATPase expression was down-regulated in group V and group DY ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of the parameters mentioned above in group D ( P>0.05). Compared with group V, LPI and W/D ratio were significantly decreased, AFC was increased, p-ERK expression was down-regulated, Na + -K + -ATPase expression was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the pathological changes of lung tissues were significantly attenuated in group D, and no significant change was found in the incidence of the parameters mentioned above in group DY ( P>0.05). Compared with group D, LPI and W/D ratio were significantly increased, AFC was decreased, p-ERK expression was up-regulated, Na + -K + -ATPase expression was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and the pathological changes of lung tissues were accentuated in group DY. Conclusion:The mechanism by which dexmedetomidine alleviates VILI may be related to activating alpha2-adrenergic receptors and inhibiting ERK/Na + -K + -ATPase signaling pathway in rats.

Comparison of the costs of different clinical treatment plans for children with acute promyelocytic leukemia / 白血病·淋巴瘤

Objective@#To explore the costs and other information of two different treatment plans for pediatric acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL): one is the traditional intravenous drip arsenic (arsenic trioxide) combined with chemotherapy treatment, and the other is a medication family treatment program based on oral arsenic (Realgar-Indigo naturalis formula), in order to provide a reference for the promotion of pediatric APL family treatment mode and the formulation of medical insurance policies.@*Methods@#The medical record homepage data and drug using of pediatric APL from 2010 to 2018 in Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College were retrospectively analyzed, and the newly diagnosed pediatric patients (≤14 years old) with APL were included. The hospitalization expenses and hospitalization time of two treatment options were compared. One treatment option was Chinese children APL treatment plan 2010 (CCAPL 2010), which was based on intravenous drip arsenic trioxide. The other was Chinese Children Cancer Group APL treatment plan 2017 (CCCG-APL 2017), which was based on oral Realgar-Indigo naturalis formula.@*Results@#A total of 79 pediatric APL patients were included and grouped according to the treatment plans, 56 patients were treated with CCAPL 2010 plan, and 23 patients were treated with CCCG-APL 2017 plan. The median costs of one single pediatric APL patient in CCAPL 2010 plan was 167 700 yuan (95 800-386 600 yuan), and the median hospital stay time of one single pediatric APL patient was 102 days (14-157 days). The median costs of one single pediatric APL patient in CCCG-APL 2017 plan group was 118 700 yuan(50 800-270 600 yuan), and the median hospital stay time of one single pediatric APL patient was 37 days(5-96 days). The costs and hospital stay time of one single pediatric APL patient with CCCG-APL 2017 plan were remarkably less than those of one single pediatric APL patient with CCAPL 2010 plan (U = 178, P < 0.01; U = 66, P < 0.01).@*Conclusions@#The CCCG-APL 2017 plan simplifies the treatment plan compared with the CCAPL 2010 plan and significantly reduces the patient's medical expenses and shortens the hospitalization days. The CCCG-APL 2017 plan is suitable for family therapy and has good social and economic benefits, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

STUDY ON INVESTIGATION OF SNAILS UNDER WATER BY RICE STRAW CURTAINS / 中国血吸虫病防治杂志

As a result of observation in lab. ,it showed that the rice straw attracted snail well,it at-tracted uninfected and infected snails, and adult and young snails respectively without singnificant difference. On this basis,we can investigate the snails under water by rice straw curtains during water raising season. This paper reported that the method for weaving rice straw curtain fixed by stone,and using foamed plastics as buoy were easy and convenient. The rate of snail-attraction was highest when it took 14 hours ,especially in August.
