静脉输液拔针后按压血管时间的临床探讨

目的静脉输液拔针后,按压血管多长时间较为合适,目前尚无定论。旨在探讨按压血管的最佳时间,以便最大限度地减少皮下瘀血,减轻病人痛苦,保护静脉血管。方法对200例静脉输液病人拔针后不同按压血管时间的效果进行了观察,并根据统计处理结果进行分析、比较。结果拔针后4min左右较为合适,能够有效地防止瘀血,时间过长,多数病人难以坚持;过短则皮下瘀血率高。结论这种做法,克服了过去静脉输液拔针后,按压血管时间随意性较大的缺陷,应大力推广。     

The effect of Xin’an capsule on ventricular arrthythmia in animals) on ventricular arrthythmia in animals

Objective: To observe the effects of Xin’an capsule (XAC) on experimental ventricular arrhythmia (EVA) in animals and to explore the possible mechanism.Methods: Three types of animal arrhythmic model (ventricular arrythmia in guinea pigs induced by Ouabin, in rats caused by reperfusion after ligation of descending anterior branch of coronary artery and by CaCl₂) were used to study the effects of XAC on ventricular arrhythmia (VA).Results: After XAC treatment, the dosage of Ouabin needed for inducing ventricular premature beat (VPB), ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) increased in guinea pigs. The sustaining time of reperfusion induced VT and total occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias decreased. XAC also showed an effect in increasing CaCl₂ dosage needed to cause VA, and decreased the occurrence of VF and death in rats     

Decreased incidence of arterial thrombosis using heparin-bonded intraaortic balloons

BACKGROUND: This experimental study sought to determine whether heparin-bonding of intraaortic balloons (IAB) would decrease the incidence of arterial thrombosis in the absence of systemic heparinization. METHODS: In 25 adult pigs, a 9F, 40-mL IAB was inserted into the femoral artery and positioned just below the takeoff of the left subclavian artery for 9 hours. Five animals received systemic heparin, 10 animals had no heparin, and another 10 animals received no heparin but the IAB was heparin-bonded (Duraflo II). Thrombus formation was assessed using a numerical scoring system (0 = no thrombosis to 3 = thrombus >5 cm or evidence of luminal compromise). RESULTS: Animals receiving heparin and heparin-bonded IAB had no thrombus formation around the IAB (mean +/- SE; 0 +/- 0.00 heparin versus 1.55 +/- 0.29 no heparin versus 0 +/- 0.00 heparin-bonded; p < 0.005), at the insertion site (0 +/- 0.00 heparin versus 1.55 +/- 0.29 no heparin versus 0 +/- 0.0 heparin-bonded; p < 0.005), and in the distal femoral artery (0 +/- 0.00 heparin versus 2.00 +/- 0.23 no heparin versus 0 +/- 0.00 heparin-bonded; p < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: Heparin-bonding of the IAB significantly decreases thrombus formation in the absence of systemic heparinization.     

Favorable impact of stents after emergent coronary artery bypass for failed angioplasty

BACKGROUND: This study was undertaken to determine the impact of the use and availability of coronary stents on outcomes in patients requiring emergent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery following a failed percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). METHODS: Patients were divided into two groups based on the year of their CABG for a failed PTCA and the availability of stents: group 1, 1992 to 1994, stents not available (n = 34); and group 2, 1995 to 1997, stents available (n = 26). RESULTS: CABG patients in the group where stents were not available were more likely to have had an abrupt coronary occlusion (26 of 34 versus 3 of 26; p < 0.0001) and less likely to have had a dissection (8 of 34 versus 23 of 26; p < 0.0001) as their indication for emergent CABG. Patients in the stent era had a lower incidence of perioperative myocardial infarction (5 of 26 versus 17 of 34; p < 0.01) and a decreased mortality rate (0 of 26 versus 6 of 34; p < 0.03). In the 9 patients where stents were employed, patency of the lumen was restored in 8 patients and there was only 1 myocardial infarction. CONCLUSIONS: Stents have had a favorable impact on patients requiring an emergent CABG following a failed PTCA.     

Regulation of the angiotensin type-1 receptor by antisense oligonucleotides occurs through an RNase H-type mechanism

Multiple, diverse sites in the coding region of the angiotensin type-1 receptor mRNA were targeted with 2'-deoxyribonucleotide antisense oligonucleotides (ONs). The uptake of 1 microM concentration of these ONs into Chinese hamster ovary cells was facilitated by the use of cationic liposomes. The antisense sequences reduced binding of 125I-angiotensin II by 57-73%, while mismatch ONs and reverse sequence ONs produced little reduction in receptor binding. These reductions in AT1 receptor binding were accompanied by comparable decreases in AT1 receptor mRNA levels. Furthermore, mRNA cleavage fragments corresponding in size to 3'-cleavage fragments were observed with two of the antisense ONs, consistent with the involvement of an RNase H-type enzyme. When 2'-methoxyribonucleotide analogs of these same sequences were tested, AT1 receptor mRNA levels were unchanged even though small reductions in AngII binding were observed. Antisense effects seen with these 2'-methoxyribonucleotide sequences may have arisen through a translational arrest mechanism. Direct comparisons between 2'-deoxyribonucleotide analogs and their 2'-methoxyribonucleotide counterparts show that antisense effects are significantly larger when they are mediated through an RNase H-type mechanism. 2'-methoxyribonucleotide sequences were most effective when they were directed against the translation initiation codon.     

Protection from oxidant injury by sodium-dependent GSH uptake in retinal Müller cells.

Glutathione (GSH) is known to play an important role in regulating oxidative damage to cells. The present study was initiated to examine the effect of exogenous GSH on oxidative injury in a retinal Müller cell line and to characterize GSH transport in these cells. Rat Müller cells (rMC-1) were incubated with varying concentrations of t-butylhydroperoxide (t-BHP) to induce oxidative stress, and cell viability was measured after addition of GSH. In other studies, kinetics of GSH uptake and Na+-dependency were examined by incubating cells with35S-GSH in Na+-containing and Na+-free buffers. GSH uptake was studied with GSH at concentrations varying from 0. 05-10 m m in NaCl buffer. In the presence of sodium, extracellular GSH provided protection against t-BHP-induced oxidant injury to rMC-1 cells; in contrast, the amino acid precursors of GSH did not have any effect on cell viability. GSH was taken up by rMC-1 cells in a concentration- and sodium-dependent manner. Kinetic studies revealed both a high affinity (Km approximately 0.31 m m) and low affinity Km( approximately 4.2 m m) component. Furthermore, GSH depletion had no significant effect on the rate of GSH uptake. The results show that physiological concentrations of GSH can protect Müller cells from oxidative injury. Both Na+-dependent and Na+-independent transport systems for GSH exist in Müller cells, and the Na+-dependent GSH transporter may be involved in the protective role of GSH.
