丙泊酚镇静对颅脑损伤患者脑氧供需平衡的影响

目的:探讨丙泊酚实施不同程度镇静对颅脑损伤患者脑氧供需平衡的影响。方法:选择急性闭合性颅脑损伤需行机械通气患者46例,随机分为轻度镇静组(A组),设定目标脑电双频谱指数(BIS)值75%;中度镇静组(B组),设定目标BIS值65%。主要观察达设定目标BIS值时丙泊酚靶控输注(TCI)浓度、Ramsay镇静评分、脑氧供需平衡指标颈内静脉血氧饱和度(SjvO_2)和脑氧摄取率(CERO_2)以及心率(HR)、平均动脉压(MAP)。结果:两组设定镇静目标需丙泊酚TCI浓度有明显差异(P0.05),但Ramsay评分比较差异无统计学意义;中度镇静组SjvO_2较基础值增加约12%(P0.05),CERO_2较基础值下降约15%(P0.05);而轻度镇静组对SjvO_2和CERO_2基础值没有影响。两组HR均较基础值减慢(P0.05),但对MAP均没有影响。结论:颅脑损伤患者维持目标镇静BIS值65%,调控丙泊酚靶浓度1.5-1.6μg/mL,更有利于改善脑氧供需平衡。     

Niche Cells Crosstalk In Neuroinflammation After Traumatic Brain Injury

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is recognized as the disease with high morbidity and disability around world in spite of the work ongoing in neural protection. Due to heterogeneity among the patients, it''s still hard to acquire satisfying achievements in clinic. Neuroinflammation, which exists since primary injury occurs, with elusive duality, appear to be of significance from recovery of injury to neurogenesis. In recent years, studied have revealed that communication in neurogenic niche is more than “cell to cell” communication, and study on NSCs represent it as central role in the progress of neural regeneration. Hence, the neuroinflammation-affecting crosstalk after TBI, and clarifying definitive role of NSCs in the course of regeneration is a promising subject for researchers, for its great potential in overcoming the frustrating status quo in clinic, promoting welfare of TBI patient.     

AFM for structure and dynamics of biomembranes

We review structure and dynamic measurements of biomembranes by atomic force microscopy (AFM). We focus mainly on studies involving supported lipid bilayers (SLBs), particularly formation by vesicle rupture on flat and corrugated surfaces, nucleation and growth of domains in phase-separated systems, anesthetic-lipid interactions, and protein/peptide interactions in multicomponent systems. We show that carefully designed experiments along with real-time AFM imaging with superior lateral and z resolution (0.1 nm) have revealed quantitative details of the mechanisms and factors controlling vesicle rupture, domain shape and size, phase transformations, and some model biological interactions. The AFM tip can also be used as a mechanical transducer and incorporated in electrochemical measurements of membrane components; therefore, we touch on these important applications in both model and cell membranes.

Traumatic Brain Injury Rehabilitation: QEEG Biofeedback Treatment Protocols

Interventions for improvement of cognitive problems in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) include electroencephalography biofeedback, also known as neurofeedback. Quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) patterns are assessed in TBI patients and then compared to a database obtained from a normative population. Deviations in QEEG patterns from the normative group are the basis for an intervention plan. While QEEG patterns, obtained under an eyes closed, resting condition, provide information about deviations at rest, QEEG patterns obtained while the patient engages in cognitive tasks reflect specific deficiencies in brain functioning. This paper reviews and assesses QEEG patterns collected under both resting conditions as well as cognitive tasks. The article provides a theoretical and empirical base for QEEG interventions with TBI.     

先兆早产、胎膜早破、妊娠期糖尿病及正常妊娠女性阴道菌群分布的比较

目的:比较先兆早产、胎膜早破、妊娠期糖尿病及正常妊娠女性阴道菌群分布情况。方法:选择2016年6月至2018年6月在苏州大学附属第二医院妇产科住院的妊娠女性806例,其中先兆早产组206例,胎膜早破组234例,妊娠期糖尿病组156例,正常妊娠组210例。记录四组女性异常阴道菌群检出率及异常阴道菌群分布情况。结果:四组女性的年龄、孕周比较无统计学差异(P>0.05)。先兆早产组、胎膜早破组异常阴道菌群检出率高于妊娠期糖尿病组、正常妊娠组(P<0.05),而妊娠期糖尿病组、正常妊娠组异常阴道菌群检出率比较无统计学差异(P>0.05)。先兆早产组、妊娠期糖尿病组白色假丝酵母菌检出率高于胎膜早破组、正常妊娠组(P<0.05),先兆早产组、胎膜早破组阴道加德纳菌检出率高于妊娠期糖尿病组、正常妊娠组(P<0.05),先兆早产组无乳链球菌检出率高于胎膜早破组、妊娠期糖尿病组、正常妊娠组(P<0.05),胎膜早破组大肠埃希菌检出率高于先兆早产组、妊娠期糖尿病组、正常妊娠组(P<0.05)。结论:妊娠女性阴道感染以白色假丝酵母菌、大肠埃希菌、无乳链球菌、阴道加德纳菌为主,且先兆早产、胎膜早破女性阴道致病菌感染率较高,妊娠期糖尿病女性阴道白色假丝酵母菌的感染率较高。
