RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the effect of inhaled aerosolized budesonide and salbutamol on lung function during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in rabbits.Methods:Thirty-two healthy male New Zealand white rabbits, aged 5-6 months, weighing 2.5-3.0 kg, were randomized into 4 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: two-lung ventilation (TLV) group, OLV group, inhalation of aerosolized budesonide group (group B) and inhalation of aerosolized budesonide and salbutamol group (group B+ S). Bilateral lungs were ventilated for 3 h in group TLV, the left lung was ventilated for 2 h followed by 1-h TLV in OLV, B and B+ S groups, aerosolized budesonide 1 mg (diluted to 2 ml in normal saline) was inhaled before OLV in group B, and aerosolized salbutamol 0.15 mg/kg plus budesonide 0.5 mg was inhaled before OLV in group B+ S.The equal volume of aerosolized normal saline was delivered in TLV and OLV groups.Volume-controlled ventilation was used in all groups.Arterial blood samples were obtained for blood gas analysis before aerosol inhalation (T 0), 15 min and 1 h after aerosol inhalation (T 1, 2), and at the end of ventilation (T 3). Oxygenation index was calculated.Mixed venous blood samples were collected to determine the corresponding parameters.The pulmonary shunt (Qs/Qt) was calculated.Peak airway pressure (P peak), airway platform pressure (P plat), airway resistance (Raw), and lung compliance (C dyn) were continuously monitored and recorded at T 0-T 3. Results:Compared with group TLV, the concentration of lactic acid was significantly increased at T 2, 3, oxygenation index and C dyn were decreased at T 1-3, and Qs/Qt, Raw, P plat and P peak were increased in OLV, B and B+ S groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group OLV, the concentration of lactic acid was significantly decreased at T 2, 3, oxygenation index and C dyn were increased at T 1-3, and Qs/Qt, Raw, P plat and P peak were decreased in B and B+ S groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group BD, the C dyn was significantly increased at T 1-3, and Qs/Qt, Raw and P peak were decreased in group B+ S ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Inhaled aerosolized budesonide and salbutamol can effectively improve lung function during OLV in rabbits.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the impact factors of liver uptake of 18F-FDG in PET/CT imaging,and to preliminary analyze the application of maximum standardized uptake values corrected by conventional body mass,lean body mass and body surface area (SUVmax-B,SUVmax-L,SUVmax-S).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 67 healthy subjects who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT.SUVmax-B,SUVmax-L and SUVmax-S were measured,and the impact of age,levels of fasting blood glucose,body mass index (BMI),CT value of liver,gender and the fatty liver on SUVmax-B,SUVmax-L and SUVmax-S were analyzed.Results The liver SUVmax-B,SUVmax-L,SUVmax-S were positively correlated with the levels of fasting blood glucose (r=0.329,0.336,0.353,P =0.012,0.010,0.007).There was a positive correlation between BMI and SUVmax-B (r=0.543,P＜0.01),SUV-L (r=0.328,P=0.007),while BMI value had no correlation with SUVmax-S (r=0.026,P=0.833).There was no correlation between age,CT value of the liver nor SUVmax-B,SUVmax-L and SUVmax-S (all P＞0.05).The liver SUVmax-B (t=2.608,P=0.011) and SUVmax-L (t=5.272,P=0.001) of male were significantly higher than those of female,while there was no difference between male's and female's liver SUVmax-S and liver SUVmax-S (t=0.759,P=0.450).There was no difference in SUVmax-B,SUVmax-L nor SUVmax-S between fatty liver subjects and non-fatty liver subjects (P=0.646,0.775,0.068).Conclusion The fasting blood glucose level,BMI and sex are the impact factors of liver uptake of 18F-FDG in PET/CT imaging.SUVmax-B can be replaced by SUVmax-L or SUVmax-S for larger BMI subjects,while SUVmax-S can make up differences between different genders.However,correction techniques can not weaken the impact of blood glucose level on SUVmax value of liver.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the protective effect and mechanism of glycyrrhizic acid on hippocampal neuron injury in epileptic rat models. Methods The epileptic rat models were established by lithium and pilocarpine kindling. The successful models were randomly divided into epilepsy group and glycyrrhizic acid group. In addition, the rats without any treatment were used as the normal control group, with 12 rats in each group. Hippocampal neuron injury and apoptosis were detected by Nissl and TUNEL staining. Mitochondrial membrane potential in the hippocampal neurons of rats was detected by JC-1 method. The activity of aspartic acid protein hydrolase 3 (caspase 3) and caspase 9 was detected by colorimetric assay. The expressions of cleaved-caspase 3, 9, B lymphocyte tumor-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 related X protein (Bax), cytochrome C (CytC) and apoptotic protease-activating factor (Apaf-1) protein in the hippocampal tissues of rats were detected by western blot assay. Results Compared with the normal group, the number of neurons was reduced (P＜0. 01), the number of TUNEL-positive cells was increased (P＜ 0. 01), mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased (P＜ 0. 01), caspase 3 and 9 activity was increased (P＜ 0. 01), the expressions of Bcl-2 and mitochondrial CytC were down-regulated (P＜ 0. 01), the expressions of Bax, cytoplasm CytC and Apaf-1 were up-regulated (P＜ 0. 01) in the epilepsy group. Compared with the epilepsy group, the number of neurons was increased (P ＜ 0. 01), the number of TUNEL-positive cells was reduced (P＜ 0. 01), mitochondrial membrane potential was increased (P＜ 0. 01), caspase 3 and 9 activity was decreased (P ＜ 0. 01 ), the expressions of Bcl-2 and mitochondrial CytC were up-regulated (P ＜0. 01), the expressions of Bax, cytoplasm CytC and Apaf-1 were down-regulated (P ＜ 0. 01) in the glycyrrhizic acid group. Conclusions These results suggest that glycyrrhizic acid can inhibit the hippocampal neuron injury in epileptic rats by blocking the mitochondrial pathway.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the feasibility of monitoring the tumor's hypoxic changes by 99Tcm-2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl) ethyl eihydrogen phosphate (MNLS) imaging after radiotherapy.Methods (1) H22 cells were cultured and mice model with liver cancer xenografte was made.The mice were imaged at 0.5,1,2,3,4,6 and 8 h (six mice in each group) after injected with 7.4 MBq 99TcmMNLS when the tumor size reach about 1 cm.Then the mice were sacrificed.The T/NT and ％ID/g of each time point was calculated.(2) The liver cancer bearing mice of radiotherapy group (25 Gy) and control group were imaged at 0,24,48 h,and then the technique of ROI was adopted to calculate the T/NT at each time point in the two groups.Immunohistochemical stain method was used to evaluate the expression level of HIF-1α in liver cancer.(3) One-way analysis of variance,the least significant difference t test,two-sample t test and Spearman correlation analysis were performed.Results (1) The uptake of 99TcmMNLS in the liver cancer bearing mice was significant at 2 h after injection and the ％ID/g was the highest.99Tcm-MNLS was excreted mainly through kidneys.(2) The T/NT and HIF-1α expression level in radiotherapy group at 24 h (2.65±0.27,(50.62±3.78)％) were lower than those at the instant (3.35±0.19,(85.32±0.94)％,t=5.640,6.701,both P＜0.05),but higher than those at 48 h (2.23±0.52,(21.69±0.75)％,t=7.674,4.911,both P＜0.05).The T/NT and HIF-1α expression in the radiotherapy group were significantly higher than those in the control group at the instant (2.74 ± 0.29,(28.26 ± 1.70) ％,t =4.235,3.473,both P＜0.05) but lower at 48 h (3.15±0.88,(67.64±3.55) ％,t =7.902,3.258,both P＜0.05).However,no significant difference was observed at 24 h between radiotherapy group and the control group (2.98±0.16,(58.45±0.98) ％,t =0.525,2.043,both P＞0.05).The change of T/NT closely correlated with the expression of HIF-1α in both the radiotherapy group and control group(r,=0.793,0.756,both P＜0.05).Conclusion 99Tcm-MNLS hypoxia imaging has potential to monitor changes of hypoxia in tumor after radiotherapy.
RESUMO
Purpose To explore the features of 99Tcm-AnnexinⅤscintigraphy of venous thrombus and its feasibility of discriminating fresh venous thrombus from old one. Materials and Methods The rabbits (n=15) were randomly divided into three groups (fresh thrombus group, old thrombus group and control group). The inferior vena cava thrombus models were developed in the rabbits of thrombus groups by inserting screw cooper wire into inferior vena cava. The rabbits of control group received sham operation. 99Tcm-AnnexinⅤwas injected in the rabbits of fresh thrombus group and control group one day after operation;the same was done in the rabbits of old thrombus group 14 days after operation. Planar anterior abdominal images were obtained at 30, 60, 90 and 120 min after 99Tcm-AnnexinⅤinjection in all groups respectively. The ratios of thrombus to background of the two thrombus groups and the ratios of the area correspondent to the thrombus groups to background of the control group were calculated by ROIs counts. Then rabbits were executed, and thrombus was used for pathology examination. Results 99Tcm-AnnexinⅤuptake in thrombi was clearly visualized in all rabbits of the fresh thrombus group;whilst negative images showed in all rabbits of the old thrombus group and control group. The thrombus to background ratios of the fresh thrombus group (4.06±0.49) were higher than that of the old thrombus group (2.46±0.38), and also higher than the inferior vena cava below inferior pole of right kidney level to background ratios (2.27±0.24) of the control group (t=5.746, 7.318;P<0.05). All the thrombi of the fresh thrombus group were confirmed as fresh mixed thrombi by HE staining, and those of the old thrombus group were confirmed as old mixed organized thrombi. Conclusion 99Tcm-AnnexinⅤmay become a new acute venous thrombus imaging tracer used to discriminate fresh venous thrombus from old one.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the influence of different injection techniques on the quality of bolus in 99mTc-DTPA renal dynamic imaging.Methods 395 patients accepted 99mTc-DTPA renal dynamic imaging were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into three groups according to injection techniques:direct injection group (187 cases),intravenous route injection group (84 cases)and venous indwelling needle injection group (124 cases).The three groups were injected by each technique.Areas of interest (ROI) were drawn on abdominal aorta by Xeleris workstation in blood flow perfusion imaging.The time-radioactivity curves of ROI were got.The patients whose ROI curve formed a peak was successfully injected,and did not formed was unsuccessfully injected.The number of patients in three groups who were successfully or unsuccessfully injected was respectively calculated.The data of three groups was taken Chisquare test by SPSS17.0 software.Results 174 patients of the direct injection group,46 of the intravenous route injection group and 115 of the venous indwelling needle injection group were injected successfully.The successful rate respectively was 93.0％,54.8％ and 92.7％.The successful rate of the direct injection group and venous indwelling needle injection group were higher than intravenous route injection group.The difference had statistical significance.The successful rate of the direct injection group and venous indwelling needle injection group hadn't statistical significance.Conclusions The successful rates of the direct injection group and venous indwelling needle injection group were similar.The venous indwelling needle injection technique can be chosen.The successful rate of the intravenous route injection group was lower than the other two groups.The intravenous route injection technique should be chosen prudently.
