In order to observe the effect of postoperative analgesia with epidural morphine on the prolactin and colostrum after cesarean section. Method: Forty healthy full-term parturients undergoing elective cesarean section under epidural anesthesia, were randomly divided into two groups: the analgesic group (group A, n=20)and the controlled group (group C, n=20). Postoperative follow-up time was 48 hours. The plasma prolactin level was determined with radioimmunoassay. Result: The VAS of group A was significantly lower than that of group C (P

Objective To investigate the projects and effects of the comprehensive and conservative treatment of patients with keen osteoarthritis and meniscus injury.Methods 120 patients with keen osteoarthritis and meniscus injury were randomly divided into the control group A(n =40),B(n =40)and comprehensive treatment group C(n =40).Patients in group A were treated with ozone and glass sodium injection;Patients in group B were treated with ozone,glass sodium and Triamcinolone Acetonide injection;Patients in group C were treated with ozone, glass sodium and Triamcinolone Acetonide injection,superlaser local irradiation,glucosamine tablet oral,Lornoxicam intravenous injection.The effects of the treatment according to keen joints function scores were compared after two weeks and six months.Patients in group C were randomly divided into group C1(n =20)and group C2(n =20)after one year,patients in group C1 with the same treatment as patients in group A and oral glucosamine tablet for one course of treatment,patients in group C2 without any further treatment.The follow up was completed for two years. Results The excellent and good rate in group C was better than that of group B and group C after two weeks (70.0%,22.5%,42.5%,χ2 =18.152,6.146,P <0.01 or P <0.05).After six month,the excellent and good rate in group C was better than that of group A and group B (87.5%,42.5%,60.0%,χ2 =17.802,7.813,all P <0.01).There was no significant difference between group C1 and group C2 after one years(t1 =2.014,P <0.01). There was significant difference between group C1 and group C2 after two years(t2 =16.152,P <0.01).Conclusion The effects of comprehensive conservative treatment are better than simple keen joint injection in patients with keen osteoarthritis and meniscus injury.The function of keen joint with maintenance care treatment is better than without maintenance care.Comprehensive conservative and maintenance care treatment is a good clinical treatment project.

Mammography imaging is one of the most demanding imaging modalities from the point of view of the bal- ance between image quality (the visibility of small size and/or low contrast structures) and dose (screening of many asymptomatic people). Therefore, since the introduction of the first dedicated mammographic units, many efforts have been directed to seek the best possible image quality while minimizing patient dose. The performance of auto- matic exposure control (AEC) is the manifestation of this demand. The theory of AEC includes exposure detection and optimization and also involves some accomplished methodology. This review presents the development and present situa- tion of spectrum optimization, detector evolution, and the way how to accomplish and evaluate AEC methods.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become one of the major metabolic diseases.In view of the defects of traditional animal models, this study was the first to establish the NAFLD model of Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) with simple feed formula which is similar to human (from simple fatty liver to steatohepatitis, fibrosis,Liver cirrhosis).This study discussed the mechanism of rapid fatty liver deposition in Mongolian gerbil, revealed its molecular mechanism,main regulatory target and network function of fatty liver susceptibility.We provide a new animal model of NAFLD with relatively clear background and less time-consuming for clinical treatment and new drug development.The theoretical and practical basis for the breeding of inbred strain NAFLD gerbil was established.

Objective:The present study was designed to explore the role of ER stress in cardiac hypertrophy of adult APPswe /PS1dE9 transgenic mice.Methods:10 adult APPswe/PS1dE9 transgenic mice and 10 C57BL/6 wild type (WT) mice were divided into the transgenic experimental and control group,WT experimental and control group,respectively,with 5 mice in each group.Experimental groups received a low dose ofIsoproterenol (ISO) (2 mg/kg) once a day for 4 weeks to induce cardiac hypertrophy,while control groups received the same volume of normal saline.After 4 weeks,the mice were anesthetized,followed by,electrocardiogram (ECG) recording and the measurement of the heart rate and body weight before being sacrificed.The heart was dissected out,and the masses of heart and the left ventricle were measured,the left ventricule mass index (LVW/BW) and the whole heart weight ratio (HW/BW) were calculated.HE staining was used to observe the pathological and morphological changes of cardiomyocytes,and Western Blot and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expressions of ER stress relevant proteins-GRP78,JNK,P-JNK and CaMKII.Results:Compared with WT experimental mice,the ventricular wall in the APPswe/PS1dE9 transgenic experimental mice was apparently hypertrophic after the induction by low doses of ISO,and the HW/BW and the LVW/BW were also significantly increased in the APPswe/PS1dE9 transgenic experimental mice than those in the transgenic control mice,WT experimental and control mice (P＜0.05).HE staining showed that compared with the transgenic control mice,WT experimental and WT control mice,in the adult APPswe/PS1dE9 transgenic experimental mice,the cardiomyocyte diameter was obviously increased,cell density was decreased,the capillary density was decreased,the intercellular substance was increased,and the intercellular space was increased.Western blot showed that the expression of GRP78,p-JNK and CaMKII in the experimental group of adult APPswe / PS1dE9 transgenic mice were significantly higher than those in the transgenic control mice and WT mice (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).There were no significant difference among the control group oftransgenic mice and the two groups of WT mice.Immunohistochemistry showed that the positive rates of GRP78 and CaMKII in the cytoplasm of cardiomyocytes of the APPswe/PS1 dE9 transgenic experimental mice were significantly higher than those of experimental WT mice (80％&40 ％)(P＜0.05),and the expressions in the two control groups were negative.The positive rates of p-JNK and JNK in the APPswe/PS1dE9 transgenic experimental mice were 90％ and 40％ respectively,and the expressions were negative in other three groups.Conclusions:The adult APPswe/PSldE9 transgenic mice are more prone to cardiac hypertrophy than WT mice after the induction with a low dose of ISO.ER stress is involved in the formation of cardiac hypertrophy in adult APPswe/PS1dE9 transgenic mice.

Objective To investigate the value of Q-analysis real-time elasticity in differentiating between benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods Eighty-six thyroid nodules in 62 patients with pathologic diagnosis were included in this study and were examined using Q-analysis real-time elasticity. The real-time elasticity features were observed and the quantitative index including the whole elasticity rate and the local elasticity rate were compared between benign and malignant nodules. Results There were 51 benign and 35 malignant nodules according to histopathological examination. The Q-analysis curve of real-time elasticity of benign nodules was smoother and with lower peak, compared with that of malignant nodules. The whole elasticity rate of malignant nodules were significantly higher than that of benign nodules (3.59±0.84 vs 2.32±0.56, P=0.000). And the local elasticity rate of malignant nodules were significantly higher than that of benign nodules (3.96±1.32 vs 2.39±0.58, P=0.000). The cutoff point of whole elasticity rate for the differential diagnosis was 3.25 with sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy as 71.4%, 96.1% and 86.0% respectively. The cutoff point of local elasticity rate for the differential diagnosis was 3.45 with sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy as 68.6%, 96.1% and 84.9% respectively. The diagnostic efficiency of whole elasticity rate and local elasticity rate had no significant difference (P=0.591).Conclusions Q-analysis real-time elasticity could provide the real-time elasticity features of thyroid nodules. The whole and local elasticity rate as the quantitative index contributed to the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.
