[Interventional bronchoscopy with the use of mechanical ventilation by larynx mask or tracheal intubation under general anesthesia].
To explore and evaluate the technique of performing interventional bronchoscopy by using mechanical ventilation with larynx mask or tracheal intubation under general anesthesia. ⋯ Interventional bronchoscopy by using mechanical ventilation with larynx mask or tracheal intubation under general anesthesia was safe and reliable. Although peak airway pressure increased following insertion of bronchoscope, the mean airway pressure was maintained in a low level. When performing interventional bronchoscopy during mechanical ventilation, the inside diameter of larynx mask and tracheal intubation should be as large as possible to minimize airway pressure and auto-PEEP.

[Effects of rosiglitazone on peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-γ pathway in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].
To explore the effects of rosiglitazone on peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ), nuclear factor-κB and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). ⋯ The expression and activity of PPAR-γ were decreased in COPD patients. PPAR-γ agonist rosiglitazone inhibited inflammation in COPD through upregulating the expression and activity of PPAR-γ and inhibition of NF-κB and TNF-α. It suggests that PPAR-γ may play an important role in the inflammation of COPD.
