Pressure Changes

1. Changes in blood pressure in the dorsal aorta, ventral aorta and subintestinal vein, as well as changes in heart rate and breathing rate during moderate swimming activity in the rainbow trout are reported. 2. Blood pressures both afferent and efferent to the gills increased during swimming and then returned to normal levels within 30 min. after exercise. 3. Venous blood pressure was characterized by periodic increases during swimming. The pressure changes were not in phase with the body movements. 4. Although total venous return to the heart increased during swimming, a decreased blood flow was recorded in the subintestinal vein. 5. Heart rate and breathing rate increased during swimming and then decreased when swimming ceased. 6. Some possible mechanisms regulating heart and breathing rates are discussed.

Age-related changes in phase synchronization of spontaneous blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) fluctuations within the baroreflex wave range (about 0.1 Hz) were studied in 66 subjects aged 20 to 52 years. Measurements performed during the head-up tilt test included continuous BP monitoring using the volume-compensation method, ECG recording for ensuing HR calculation, and breathing rate recording. The phase synchronization index (PSI) was used for evaluation of BP-HR coupling. In supine position, phase synchronization in the subjects over 40 years was higher as compared with their counterparts at the age of 20 to 24 years. Along with that, less pronounced PSI increase in people over 40 in response to the tilt test suggests a decline of the baroreflex activity with aging.

Objective: To assess the safety, feasibility and eluting efficiency of intrahepatic arterial delivery of sorafenib on normal liver tissue of rabbit. Methods: 24 New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: group Ⅰ (Lipiodol-sorafenid), group Ⅱ (Lipiodol) and group Ⅲ (Sorafenib). Group Ⅰ and Ⅱ were treated by transcatheter selective hepatic arterial embolization with emulsions of lipiodol and sorafenib or with only lipiodol, while group Ⅲ was given hepatic arterial infusion with sorafenib. Sorafenib concentration in plasma was determined by HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) in 0 min, 20 min, 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h, 32h and 48h respectively. The breathing rate, heart rate, rectal temperature and body weight were measured, as well the blood routine test and the function of liver, kidney, and heart. Two animals of each group were respectively killed in the 3rd day, 1st, 3rd and 6th week after treatment. Histopathologic study was done to liver, heart, kinney, lung, brain, gall bladder and intestine. Result: ① The peak sorafenib concentration (Cmax)and AUC(Area under curve) in plasma in groupⅠwas 2.46±0.101μg/ml and 945.72 ± 52.3 μg/mL.min respectively, while in group Ⅲ which was 3.78±0.180 ug/ml and 546.98±21.1μg/mL.min. Compared with groupⅢ, the Cmax and AUC of groupⅠhad a significant statistics difference (p<0.05). ② The breathing rate, heart rate, rectal temperature and AST/ALT,WBC,NEU% of group Ⅰand groupⅢhas a significant statistics difference(p<0.05) in the 3rd day. ③CK ,CK-MB, DB, Cr，BUN,RBC,PLT in plasma did not change in all group.④Local necrosis was seen in group Ⅰand group Ⅱin the 3rd day and 1st week, but they did not seem to be different. Group Ⅲ showed no necrosis. Granulation tissue with bile duty, portal vein and microfossils hyperplasia were seen in local necrosis area in the 3rd week. No pathological changes were found in brain, heart, kidney, intestine and gallbladder. Conclusion: TAE with emulsions of lipiodol and sorafenib is feasible, safe and has some slow-release effect.

Background: Previous studies found that the use of an iPad® in intervention programmes benefited the skills of daily living of children with autism. The purpose of the study was to determine the physiological changes in children while playing action and strategy games on an iPad. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted using Powerlab 24/6T, a blood pressure monitor, respiratory belt, and finger pulse transducer. The children were asked to play two types of game. The duration for each game was 10 minutes. The measurement of blood pressure - both systolic and diastolic, heart rate and breathing rate were taken at three consecutive times (before, during and after each game). The inclusion criteria are children aged 7 to 12 years old who have been diagnosed with a mild type of autism (Pervasive developmental disorder). The exclusion criteria were children who had co-morbidities such as epilepsy, migraine, heart, and lung problems, depression, physical disabilities and visual impairments.  Results: Nineteen children with autism participated in this study. The result indicated that the mean systolic and diastolic blood pressures increased before and after playing strategy games and action games. However, compared to pre-play values, the mean heart rate and breathing rate decreased both during and after playing both types of game. Meanwhile, there was significant mean difference for breathing rate for both types of game (p<0.05). Conclusion: Playing strategy and action games did not affect the measured physiological parameters of children with autism.
