两种不同方法测定低水平压力支持通气时气道阻断压与自主呼吸时常规方法测定值的相关性分析

目的 拟比较以两种不同方法测定低水平压力支持通气（pressure support ventilation，PSV）病人的气道阻断压（P0．1）与自主呼吸时常规方法测定值的相关性。方法 12例机械通气病人，断开呼吸机自主呼吸时以常规方法测定P0．1得到P0．1-SB：在PSV水平为5cmH20，以常规方法和按压呼气末暂停键测定P0．1分别得到P0．1-PSV5和P0．1-PSV5eeo．分析后二者与前者之间的相关性。结果 P0．1-SB与P0．1-PSV5之间差异无显著性，P0．1-PSV5ee0分别小于P0．1-SB与P0．1-PSV5，差异有显著性；P0．1-PSV5eeo与P0．1-PSV5和P0．1-SB之间的相关系数均为0．97。结论 按压呼气末暂停键测定PSV水平为5cmH2O的P0．1值与常规方法测定的PSV水平为5cmH2O以及自主呼吸时的测定值相比，其值偏小,但前者与后二者之间具有良好的相关性。     

水面长航舰载保存血液生化指标的实验研究

目的探讨和观察经水面长航舰载保存血液出海前后对生化指标的影响与变化。方法随机采集和制备WB、AS-RBC和LP-RBC各18人份(200ml)。每份血液各等分为4袋,配对设计为实验组(A区、B区和C区)与对照组。分别于长航前和长航后进行血液生化指标检测。结果①K+和P3+浓度在三种血液制品的实验组与对照组各观察点的结果均随保存血液时间的延长而增高(P<0.05或P<0.01);Na+浓度由长航前的水平而逐步降低(P<0.01);P3+、Mg2+实验组和对照组较长航前增高,Cl-、Ca2+的含量与长航前没有显著变化;②LDH、AST、CKP和HBDH结果实验组和对照组均呈递增趋势,AKP结果实验组和对照组均呈下降表现,ALT与GGT结果在长航前后变化不明显;③Glu指标减低,UA呈上升趋势。结论长航对血液保存有一定的影响,但总的变化趋势与常规(4±2)℃血库冰箱保存相似。此项研究对于我们进一步探索海上血液保障与运输以及血液海上救护均具有十分重要的实用和军事价值。

Pressure distribution and perceived comfort in casual footwear

The aim of this investigation was to establish the relationship between short-term perceived comfort and pressure distribution on the dorsal and plantar surfaces of the foot, while walking in a range of commercially available casual footwear. The study was carried out in the biomechanics laboratory of Manchester Metropolitan University using 15 male subjects without foot pathology. Perceived upper and plantar comfort were measured using a specially designed questionnaire, while dorsal and plantar pressure distributions were measured using a rectangular sensor pad recording at 30 Hz and a Mikro-EMED insole recording at 100 Hz respectively. Analysis of variance tests were used to determine differences in perceived comfort and pressure distribution between three pairs of shoes. The findings of this study suggest that an increase in total plantar force and force-time integral may relate to a decrease in perceived plantar comfort. For the three shoes examined in this study, overall peak plantar pressure, the pressure-time integral, and total plantar area did not appear to be linked to perceived plantar comfort. Findings for the shoe upper indicate that decreased dorsal forces and pressures may be related to decreased upper comfort. These findings suggest that the measurement of pressure distribution at the foot-shoe interface could be a useful tool in identifying the causes of discomfort in footwear.

P1 blood group antigen expression and epidemic hemolytic uremic syndrome

P1 blood group positivity has been postulated as a host factor which may provide protection against the development of post-enteropathic hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). In this study, blood group status in 20 Inuit survivors ofEscherichia coli 0157: H7-associated HUS was compared with age-and sex-matched controls from the same community who had experienced uncomplicated diarrheal illness due to the same pathogen. Of 20 HUS survivors, 6 were P1 antigen positive compared with 8 of the 20 controls (P=0.7). We conclude that P1 antigen positivity was not protective against HUS in this population. Further studies of this condition to clarify the role of host factors in verotoxin-induced endothelial damage are indicated.     

The Effect of Total Blood Exchange with PHP Solution on Cardiac Xenotransplantation

Abstract: Prevention of hyperacute rejection is a difficult and unsolved problem in xenotransplantation. Natural antibodies and complement activation have been known to play an important role in the xenotransplantation between discordant species pairs. In the present study, total blood exchange (TBE) was performed with pyridox-alated-hemoglobin-polyoxyethylene conjugate (PHP) solution (Ajinomoto Co., Inc., Kawasaki, Japan) before cardiac xenotransplantation in order to remove the immunoglobulins and prolong xenograft survival time. Guinea pigs and rats were used as the discordant species combination for donor and recipient. Two groups were established: Group 1, untreated control (n = 8) and Group 2, TBT with PHP solution (n = 8). The exchange blood transfusion was carried out at the rate of 15–20 ml/h utilizing PHP solution using a blood pump. After the blood exchange was processed, hematocrit (Ht) levels dropped to 4 or 5%, and a cardiac xenotransplantation was performed within 24 h. The levels of serum IgA, IgM, and IgG were decreased to less than 25, 25, and 10% of the base line, respectively, after blood exchange. A mean xenograft survival time in Group 2 was prolonged to 472 ± 74 min and to 10.4 ± 1.8 min in Group 1 (p < 0.01). A titer of the anti-guinea pig lymphocytotoxic antibody in rat serum was decreased to almost nil. The data from this study suggest that total blood exchange with PHP solution may be useful in preoperative removal of xenograft antibodies in xenotransplantation.     

Fluctuating PEEP (F–PEEP) versus conventional PEEP in dogs with asymmetrical lung injury

Fluctuating PEEP (F-PEEP) is a newly developed PEEP in which end-expiratory pressure (EEP) is periodically changed within a certain range. In a dog model with unilateral lung injury induced by the introduction of hydrochloric acid, F-PEEP in which the EEP was periodically changed from 0.5 to 1.5 kPa at periods of 6 min, and conventional PEEP (C-PEEP) with an optimized EEP of 1.0 kPa, were each applied for 30 min. F-PEEP produced a significantly greater improvement of PaO2 and intrapulmonary shunt (QS/QT) than C-PEEP, and at the low EEP phase, the greatest improvement accompanied by an increased dynamic compliance and a large cardiac output was obtained. These results suggest that F-PEEP provides a useful mode of artificial ventilation for the treatment of unilateral lung injury.     

Blood pool ventriculography with a new technetium-labelled complex (99mTc-DEPIC) : a clinical evaluation

A new, single bolus method of in vivo blood pool imaging using a technetium Tc99m phosphine isocyanide complex (DEPIC) which binds to pre-albumin was evaluated in volunteers (n=4) and patients (n=20). DEPIC was assessed for its safety and possible drug interactions. Its duration of action and quality of ventriculography were compared with imaging using standard in vivo red cell labelling (PYP) during two 3-h scanning periods 1 week apart. DEPIC had a mean plasma halflife of 3.3 h. The count rate over the left ventricle was initially 42% higher with DEPIC than with PYP. However, removal of DEPIC by the liver resulted in equivalent count rates by 1 h, and by 3 h PYP count rates were 22% higher than DEPIC. Immediately post injection mean (SD) difference in the left ventricular ejection fraction between the two methods was 2.4% (7.7%). Satisfactory DEPIC scans were obtained up to 2 h post injection, but by 3 h there was a mean difference of 13% (11.3%). DEPIC was found to be a safe alternative to red all labelling for blood pool angiography, suitable for routine work. The single bolus methodology and high initial count rates offer improved efficiency and a capability for truly emergency scanning.
