Relationship among dosages of aminophylline, plasma levels of theophylline and variation of pulmonary arterial pressure]

The relationship among the dosages of aminophylline, plasma levels of theophylline and variations of mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) in 72 patients with COPD was investigated. The results showed that after a different loading dosage of aminophylline (6 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg and 4 mg/kg) was administered by intravenous injection, mPAP in the 6 mg/kg group was decreased more significantly (P less than 0.01) than that in the 4 mg/kg group. In the 6 mg/kg group, the decreased mPAP period sustained for 120 min, which was longer than that in the other 2 groups. The plasma levels of theophylline in the 6 mg/kg group of patients 30 to 120 min after loading dose injected were 115.54-79.04 mumol/L, which were higher than that in the others. Within the 120 min period of observation after the drug was administered no patients in any of these groups showed severe untoward effects. According to the results of this experiment, we suggest that the 6 mg/kg as a loading dose should be advised for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension in COPD. The optimum time to give the maintenance dosage should be set within 2 h after the loading dose. It is necessary to monitor the plasma levels of theophylline while aminophylline is administered, so that optimal therapeutic effects could be achieved without side effects.     

Hyperoxaluria, nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis and renal failure after massive resection of the small intestine: report of a case.

Hyperoxaluria is frequently seen in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, or after resection of the ileum. It is assumed to be responsible for the development of nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis (oxalate nephrosis) and progressive renal impairment in these patients. Steatorrhea may aggravate the severity of hyperoxaluria. A 60-year-old male underwent massive resection of the jejunum and ileum 10 years prior to admission, due to strangulation of the small bowel, with occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery. He remained well except for steatorrhea which developed two-and-a-half years prior to admission, when microhematuria, proteinuria and oxaluria developed progressively. Since that time, the nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis and renal failure have continued to worsen despite therapy with oxalate restriction and oxalate-binding agents. A renal biopsy, performed late in the clinical course, showed severe changes in the renal parenchyma. The decline in renal function proved irreversible. The unusual metabolic consequences of massive resection of the small intestine and their mechanisms are discussed.     

Adenosine''s role in the genesis of bradyarrhythmias induced by acute myocardial hypoxia.

A close or even causal relation between myocardial adenosine and bradyarrhythmias during acute myocardial hypoxia was testified in guinea pig, rabbit and dog mainly by using specific competitive antagonist and synchronous quantitative analysis of 3 variables: intensity of myocardial hypoxia, degree of endogenous adenosine increment and severity of bradyarrhythmias. Results disclosed: A) striking resemblance of the bradyarrhythmias with hypoxic origin to those caused by exogenous adenosine, B) same locality of A-V conduction block induced by both myocardial hypoxia and exogenous adenosine, C) precise parallelism among the above-listed 3 variables with very high correlativity (r = 0.99, P < 0.01), D) frequent accompaniment of reversal of hypoxic bradyarrhythmias through resupply of 21% O2 with normalization of preexisted increase in myocardial adenosine, E) satisfactory blockade of hypoxic bradyarrhythmias by adenosine's specific antagonist--aminophylline and their augmentation by adenosine's uptake inhibitor--dipyridamole, F) close similarity of the characteristic curve representing relation among the above 3 variables to that among intensity of myocardial hypoxia, degree of endogenous adenosine increment and amount of coronary blood flow in which adenosine's role as a mediator has been well documented and G) reproducible persistence of bradyarrhythmias during myocardial hypoxia irrespective of preliminary vagotomy and atropinization, denoting independence of the occurrence of such dysarrhythmias upon vagal drive, suggestive of a mechanism other than vagotonia. We advocated that hypoxia-induced bradyarrhythmias was caused by increment in endogenous adenosine.

多巴酚丁胺负荷对缺血性扩张型心肌病患者左心室充盈的影响：病理生理学及预后意义

目的：本研究旨在探讨多巴酚丁胺对缺血性心肌病（ICM）患者左心室（LV）充盈功能的影响，并确定峰值负荷时限制性充盈型（RFP）是否具有预后预测价值。背景：ICM患者峰值负荷时RFP的预后价值尚属未知。方法：在静息和负荷情况下，采用多普勒超声心动检查研究了69例ICM患者；RFP定义为跨二尖瓣E／A比≥1．0、等容舒张时间（IVRT）〈80ms及E波减速时间（EDT）〈120ms。结果：69例患者中有42例静息时出现RFP，其中有24例患者负荷情况下转变为非RFP（EA），18例患者RFP持续存在（EE）；69例患者中27例静息和峰值负荷时均无RFP（AA）。     

A preliminary study of the relationship between antibiotic administration and changes in bacteriological profile of wound infection in a burn unit

Objective:To investigate the relationship between antibiotic administration and the changes in bacteriological profile in a burn unit. Methods: The data of consumption of different kinds of antibiotics, including total antibiotic consumption [expressed as the number of defined daily doses (DDD)] as well as pathogen identification, were collected in a 8-year period. The constituent ratios of different kinds of antibiotics in total antibiotic consumption to isolation rates of various species of bacteria were calculated, and their correlation was analyzed. Results: Within this period, it was found that the aminoglycosides and first generation cephalosporins were used less frequently, while the polypeptides, carbopenem and macrolides were used proportionally more. At the same time, the isolation rates of Staphylococcus aureus, Acinetobacter sp, Enterobacter cloacae, Klebsiella pneumoniae and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus were gradually increased. The constituent ratios of predominant pathogens were correlated to the different kinds of antibiotics consumption in the burn unit. Conclusion: The results suggested that the consumption of different antibiotics was closely related to the trends of emergence of bacterial isolates from infected burn wounds. The result might imply that to regulate the administration of certain antibiotics might help decrease the emergence of certain pathogenic bacteria in burn infections.
